Rough Guide to Bali

Penjor "Hey I am coming to Bali, can you recommend me things to do?" I got that question a lot. I get it, I live in Bali so people would think that I master everything about Bali. Well... 50:50. I happened to travel around Bali since 2017. So it wasn't wrong to assume me knowing Bali. But I am also a lazy traveler so I don't always do many things in one place.  That is why we will call this a rough guide to Bali.  First thing first, define your style of traveling. Because we all know that Bali is an island. Not a city. So it is quite big, you know. You can not explore all of it in two weeks. Well you might be able to do so, but probably not immersing enough of it.  So... what is your style of traveling? Bali offers you some cultures, quiet normal life, party hotspots, quiet beaches, busy beaches, temples, and so on.  Mt Batur West part of Bali (Canggu, Seminyak, Kuta) If you enjoy partying, you might want to spend your time more in the west part of Bali like Canggu, ...

Teacher

Being a teacher is something that I cant imagine before. My parents ask me to be a teacher since I was child. But I will not be a teacher. I don’t know why, I just feel that being a teacher is difficult. We have to inform right information, preparing before teaching, give the best for students, and also arrange all of  material that related to students (I hate this one so much). then luckily I accepted in pure math department . It means that I won’t be a teacher. Yey… I took computation, something that I love so much. But suddenly I learn Korean. It is ok to learn new language. Because I love to learn it. This time, I learn Korean from the native speakers. I really enjoy it that much.

One day, a language institute ask me to teach Korean in this institution, Mayantara School. Of course I do. But wait, teach? In some kind of institute? Oh my God. I have no experiences teaching in institute. I only teach for private student before. Oh, ok. Maybe this one will make give me something new. But this institute is different. The owner give us a right about the teaching, about what will I do for students. it doesn’t like school, but institution which have different program with other schools.

The most important thing being a teacher is how to inform the information and make students can accept it well. I like to inform something, everything. I love to sharing. this is the most important essence of being a teacher. I feel so satisfied when my students accept the material well. It feels like got something precious. But unfortunately, not all teachers feel like that. So yeah, unfortunately sometimes. At last, although I don’t want to called myself a teacher, but educator.

That’s my point of view,

Jumat ceria

Hari ini memang bukan hari jumat, tapi cuman mau bilang aja sih kalo hari yang paling aku tunggu-tunggu itu hari jumat. Why?   Karena jumat itu selalu ceria, kalopun ada meeting besar pasti di hari jumat dan banyak cemilan, orang-orang pada berangkat sholat jumat, yang nasrani juga mengikuti misa di kantor, bisa pake baju bebas dan bebas berekspresi sepuas-puasnya, dan..... bisa video call sepuasnyaaaaaa kapanpun karena dia libur kerja 😍😍 gambarnya lucu 😁  taken from internet

Jangan minta oleh-oleh!

    Taken from internet Pernah nggak kalau kita mau bepergian, trus orang-orang pada bilang 'Jangan lupa oleh-olehnya ya' ? Pasti pernah dong ya... Yang jelas saya nggak pernah ngerti kenapa orang sering meminta sesuatu ketika kita pergi somewhere. Dulu waktu kecil juga saya suka bilang begitu. Siapa yang pergi kemana pasti deh 'jangan lupa oleh-olehnya ya om, tante pakdhe, budhe, mas, mbak'. Tapi lama kelamaan saya mikir 'saya cuman ngomong aja tanpa niat minta oleh-oleh', kecuali kalo memang kita menitipkan hal itu karena memang hanya ada ditempat yang akan dikunjungi orang tersebut, misal buku. Pernah nitip beliin buku di Korea karena emang adanya disana. Jadi esensinya oleh-oleh itu apa? Saya juga kurang tau soalnya udah nggak pernah lagi minta dibawain oleh-oleh. HJ pulang ke Belanda sana saya cuma minta beliin buku. Itupun nggak dibeliin gara-gara bukunya nggak bagus kata dia. Oleh-oleh pun ada yang sekedar apa adanya karena emang adanya begitu...

Meneropong Bulan di Mleiha

Foto diambil dan diedit di hp gw sendiri. Mleiha - 2020 Sepertinya gw memang ditakdirkan untuk mencintai science . Gw ingat sekali, buku yang bikin gw jatuh cinta kepada alam semesta dan ilmu-ilmu yang tersimpan di dalamnya adalah buku Ensiklopedia yang dibawa papa gw dari perpustakaan sekolahnya. Nggak dibalikin pula. Dosa nggak ya gw? 😬 Di buku itu, ada beberapa bagian. Berupa sejarah, astronomi, dan budaya. Gw terpana dengan kesemuanya. Ada banyak gambar-gambar benda-benda langit. Gw susah banget soal hafalan yang dipaksa, tapi gw bisa inget urutan planet-planet bahkan saat kelas 2 SD. 2 SD dulu kayaknya belom belajar planet-planet ya? Benda-benda antariksa itu nggak pernah gagal bikin gw melongo gila. Setelah melongo, hati gw rasanya penuh dengan kekaguman dan itu biasanya bertahan selama berminggu-minggu. Gw juga selalu bermimpi buat beli teleskop. Dari SD gw kumpulin segala macem artikel tentang astronomi, berlanjut hingga SMA dan gw deketin semua temen gw, kakak kelas gw yang i...
