Season 1 Episode 2 (Plateau of Self Mockery)

Good evening, J-Towners! Gossip Boy here. Your one and only source to the fabulous life of the Jakarta society.

Top story on my home page, W trading higher education for manual labor. We hear he is planning to drop out of college. Isn't it only a year or so until graduation and just as suddenly he decides to call it quit? You didn't hear it from me, but the low income tax bracket isn't exactly very attractive.

Spotted at J.Co: R, I, J, T, P and little F hanging together. Word is, they caused quite a scene playing truth or dare. At one time, even the music needed to be turned up just to cover up all the commotion. Sounds like a party.

And you know who else loves party?

Gossip Boy.

And talking about party, T's birthday party is coming up just around the corner, and everybody is invited. Well, not everyone it seems. Word is, F wasn't even invited. Did the invitation got lost in the mail? Well, too bad for you little F, even with all the love you've shown, you still couldn't score an invite.

Spotted at the lobby of S City, P flirting with a strange looking guy and asking for his number. As LDR with BF can make you go WTF, there is no need for P to trade down.

Spotted at GAP, R asking about employment to the cashier lady. Looking for job, R? Allowance money not fulfilling anymore? Extra expense with extra someone requires extra money?

Spotted, C roaming the halls of clothing stores looking busy and coming out with one big brown paper bag. Gift for the birthday boy or buying dress for the big party? We hear the event is in Ritz Carlton and the theme is formal with colors. Wouldn't want to get yourself dressed down by others.

Spotted in front of Debenhams, I was asking some guy for his number and to take a picture together. Is he just picking up strangers from the streets now? What is he up to this time? No one can tell what that guy was thinking.

And as for the birthday luncheon, steak, pasta, and sushi are the standard items on Ritz Carlton menu. But with this group of friends, the main item in the menu would be drama. Fortunately, Gossip Boy will be there to give you all the inside scoop on the latest gossips.

Until next time then.

You know you love to hate me.

xoxo
