There was an era where I was known as a very perfectionist person.
I insisted everything has to be in order, should be organized, and every place should be clutter free.
It was oblivious for me that such behaviour could be (very very very) annoying to some most people around me.
But one day, around 4 years ago, my perfectionist state of mind just stop. I don't know what suddenly changes me, but unorganized books in book shelf, DVDs scattered everywhere, my messy room, just simply don't bother me anymore.
Yet, apparently, it bothers someone.
That someone (who constantly checks my feet before go to bed and asks me to wash it before I can lie down on my own bed, and I persistently refuse of course) had just lost it last night.
To be informed, that someone has just caught severe diarrhea last night, so I was the one who drove all the way from Joglo to Pejaten. It was 9.30 pm, and he just entered into our room and suddenly had this serious look on his face and said:
"I can't take it anymore!"
Me was confused and slightly scared and didn't know how to respond. So that someone continued saying:
"Am gonna re-arrange the whole fiasco under the TV and put all of your DVDs into the right place! Tonight! At this moment!"
Me, the girl with unwashed-dirty-feet, just laughed and said:
"haha..my pleasure..."
So, ignoring his stomach ache, this is what he did until 11 pm:

While me, still with very dirty feet, was delving into blogwalking activity on my BB (but couldn't help to capture the moment, his look was priceless). During which, he repeatedly gasped on his findings:
"wow, this is a very good electrical cord! why on earth are you keeping it in here??"
"baby, is this a webcam? where is its box?"
"cool! you have a recorder??"
and other (snoopy) remarks.
"hey, what are you doing investigating my personal property? I thought you're just gonna arrange the whole DVDs" I said defensively.
and to answer his questions above:
1. IT IS a good electrical cord! I bought it on my first day in S'pore -don't ask why the first thing I bought was an electrical cord- and mistakenly saw the price tag! dammit it's $30! So, since I'm a cheapskate, I brought that thing with me while I was back for good. That's how it's landed here. In my small closet. I don't know where else to keep it.
2. It is my webcam! I used it to chat with you during our LDR. Now am no longer use it, so who cares about the box???
3. My dad gave it to me before I left for Singapore. To record the lecture. Which I never used. So, humor urself, please!

After a while, he satisfyingly shouted: done!
When I looked, my eyes were popped.
Everything is in place, of course.
BUT, what the hell is a pile of DVDs doing IN my first upper closet???
You CAN'T put DVDs in the upper closet! you just CAN'T!
So I calmly furiously said to him:
"beib, the upper closet is allocated ONLY for important papers, my PRECIOUS accounting book (cough, geek!), and other important gadgets!"
"then why you put those UNIMPORTANT papers, bills and other trash here?" he replied with victory.
shoot!
"Besides,by that we can make room for your Friends collection. I know they're imporant for you, so they deserve a little bit showing off"

Dammit! he knows my weakness.
So I was out of words and gave in.
But still, I couldn't help mischievously say to him:
"hey, you forgot a plastic of DVDs in the corner! haha!I guess it's NOT that organized" with wicked smile.
he said (with very disturbed look):
"no, it was intentional, we haven't watched that movie..so it stays there! Now go wash your feet!"
And of course, I said NO!
I guess annoying people stays together!
