Wedding Ring

Menikah itu merupakan suatu ikatan antara suami dan istri yang dilambangkan dengan adanya cincin kawin yang melingkari jari manis kiri atau kanan Anda (tergantung merit dimana toh yah...) atau di jari manapun (alias udah gak cukup karena adanya fat yang tak bertanggung jawab disekitar jari kita). Bagi beberapa orang wedding ring means a lot, bisa dibilang itu merupakan suatu alarm yang mengingatkan kita pada komitmen kepada pasangan kita dan juga sebagai pertanda, " Sorry man..I'm taken" kalo ada yang coba-coba sama kita. Even after di 'tinggal' oleh pasangan, wedding ring tetap setia melingkar disana, contohnya wedding ring nyokap gue yang selama 33 tahun tidak pernah meninggalkan post-nya. Maybe for her itu merupakan suatu peninggalan bokap gue yang paling berharga untuk dia...or memang udah gak bisa di lepas karena kedatangan tamu yang gak pulang-pulang *maksud-nya si fat tersebut*, so basically it's stuck there :D...oh just kidding mom...

Anyway, I haven't been wearing mine for the past 3 years not because I don't want to or anything to do with our religion but.....


Sekitar 3 tahun yang lalu si hubby pergi untuk annual outing dengan rombongan kantor-nya ke suatu pulau di kawasan kepulauan seribu. Berhubung waktu itu ai habis di belek oleh mister dokter alias baru melahirkan so pastilah tidak bisa ikut, jaga bebih di rumah judulnya. Trus, namanya juga di pulau so pasti apa sih kegiatannya kalo gak berenang..berenang and berenang. Karena merasa jelmaan merman jadilah dia nyelem sana nyelem sini, berharap bisa nemu mermaid kali yee....

As I told you hundred of times, sebagai cowo yang super duper careless so pasti yang namanya cincin tetep aja tuh bertengger di jari manis kiri-nya. Mungkin si mas lupa yah kalo yang namanya jari ketemu air dingin yah mengkerut toh yah *gak cuman jari aja seh..hi..hi..hi..*...walhasil HE LOST HIS WEDDING RING...*?!$!*&#@

Pas di jemput di marina masih biasa aja, soale of course I still have no clue what happened back then. Sampe di rumah tiba tiba dia mengeluarkan jurus muka tak bersalah dan ngaku that he lost his ring...itu yah yang namanya muka saya sudah sama seperti udang rebus plus untungnya masih bisa menahan diri supaya sandal swallow saya masih tetap berlokasi di kaki dan belum bertengger di kepala yang salah. Akhirnya saya menyerah saja... 'gak bisa ngomong apa apa...males aahhh..wong baru pergi semalem aja kok dah ngilang si cincin. Lha gimana sekarang suruh jaga anak di mall??

Berhubung saya sudah hopeless jadi saya putuskan tidak saya pakai cincin putihku itu dan menunggu saat yang tepat untuk membuat 2nd version of it *hhmmm enak aja yah gue ndiri yang make..tak useh ye....* So, if you ever spot a white wedding ring on the fish's belly please let me know coz there's a fat chance it's his....

Udah Mon.., cepetan bikin baru.., emas putih yang dari Monic ikutan dilebur aja bikin baru 2 cincin, sekalian pas anniversary deh.., kalo ga, ini ide bagus nih.., heheh, bikin wedding ulangan lagi aja.., a real one, dengan pastur dan sebagainya, untuk mempererat your vow.., kan orang2 kadang gitu kan.., buat shock therapy juga buat dia hihihihhhiuhihi..., next time he keeps his ring more attentively and thoroughly, lest he has to sit up to another formal wedding ceremony..! ;) hfihihihihi..... top kan..! :D

Aku setuju dengan Monic, a ring can serve as a warning, "Backoff, I'm taken" hehehhe..., I myself have been wearing a ring since two years ago. I exchange rings not formally, just for the two of us, since we have to be separated at that time. We went to Cikini, bought a pair of golden rings, carved our names in it, went to Kebun Raya Bogor by the train, exchanged rings there on brink of a lake infront of the Istana Bogor.., then asked for a photographer (tukang foto) to polaroid photograph us. It was heartbreaking, simple, sad, yet we were happy... :D
And the rings are still here with us...

RE Ruthy:
THAT's what i found out f/ many indonesians... they always have 1001 excuses for not wearing the wedding ring which to me doesn't make sense at all. if u don't wanna wear it, then don't get married 'cuz part of being married is wearing the ring. i can understand the fear of losing it, BUT ring is just a material that can be replaced, the INTENTION in heart that u'r married & together, symbolized by the ring, is important! (read what anonymous's comment)

RE: Mozzas:
i KNOW it's more than just a ring... but a ring is part of the whole package. then why not wearing it? if a ring isn't part of the package then why bother buying it or why rings are being exchanged during the vow?

hihihi... khan bisa pake reason itu untuk beli cincin baru.

"since you lose YOUR wedding ring, you better buy US a new pair of wedding ring. with a bigger diamond, of course, to compensate the carelessness of losing you losing your own wedding ring."

how does that sound? a little demanding ya? hehehe...
