Romanticizing My Cooking

Bakso I have to admit that my love for cooking is growing. It's growing and I can't believe it myself. This feeling has been like this since probably two years ago. Before, cooking felt like a hard work that I had to fulfill. It still is, but the difference is I enjoy it now. So it does not feel like I am forcing myself.  Back then whenever I cooked, it's either wrong recipe or incorrect measurement. It never tasted right. So I gave up cooking just because I never found the right one. And then I started to feel that I wanna eat better. I don't want to just eat whatever, I want to know what goes into my body. If I prepare it myself, then I know it's good one.  I don't eat too much sugar, sometimes it is hard to buy one thing outside and has a lot of sugar in it. So cooking it myself will allow me to control the amount of sugar. So I found recipes and I tried to make them. As to my surprise, they taste right! Exactly how they should have tasted. That made me happy

Kecintaan sedari dulu

Well... let me tell you about one of my best here. His name is Sunan Andriono. I call him Emon, why? Because he love to see Doraemon since I knew him. I met him in middle high school, 7th grade. We were classmates. He said hi to me first, then we become friend since then. At that time, Siti Nurhaliza (Malay singer) was very famous. I like her too, but not a big fans. But Emon, he really loves Siti. He collected all things about Siti Nurhaliza. Album, Photo, and many things. I was so surprised at that time, and thought "Wow... there is a boy, little boy who admire Siti so much. Wow.. wow..wow.. big fans of her". and thought that I don't think there is a little boy admire Siti so much.

after Milla wedding

In the middle high school, we always went home together. Four of us (with Geby and Milla). Milla also collect some pics of Siti too, so when Milla and Emon talking they just talk about Siti, mostly. Next grade I wasn't their classmate anymore. But Milla and Emon still being a classmates until graduate from mid high school. So.. we just talk when free time at school, or when going home, not in class. Next step we go to high school. Still, four of us studied in same school. I didn't get any chance to be his classmate anymore. Because he was in Language program class, and I was in natural science class. So cant get lots time to talk. Just talk some time, and asked "Are you still a big fans of Siti Nurhaliza?". He said "Absolutely yes yes. I love her so much". Oh wow... great.. he still a big fans of Siti Nurhaliza.

 Novia pre-wedding photo shoot
he is a great photographer, I love the pics he was taken


Someday he told me he want to meet her. I just said, "Go see her concert, then you gonna meet her right?". I didn't meet him for some time, then I saw his photo profile of all social media was his picture with Siti Nurhaliza. I was so surprised and thought "OH God!! Finally he met her, really". I was curious and ask him, and he said "YES.., I MET HER AND SHE IS SO BEAUTIFUL. I got her autograph, photo with her. Such an amazing things".

jeng jeng jeng he met her in 2012 for the first time !!!


Finally he met her after waiting for hmmm more than 9 years maybe (am I right emon??? :D)
Maybe you wanna go to see her concert again?

New update : he went to see her again last year (2014). He got an opportunity to see her again.
He told me that he met Siti's assistant and talked many things then the assistant said to Siti "Siti, this is Sunan"
And Siti said "Ohh... here you are. How are you Sunan? I heard about you from my assistant".
See..... how happy he was when Siti said that to him. Then he got her autograph again but didn't get any chance to take a pic because of Siti's schedule. Over all ..... CONGRATS Dear!!!!

Mengenal Nyai, Eyang Buyut Orang Indo Kebanyakan

  Seperti yang pernah saya tulis sebelumnya tentang darah campuran Eropa, saya pernah janji nulis tentang orang Indo dan Nyai, nenek buyut dari para Indo kebanyakan. Sekarang kita liat definisi dari Indo sendiri. Jadi Indo (Indo-Europeaan atau Eropa Hindia) adalah para keturunan yang hidup di Hindia Belanda (Indonesia) atau di Eropa yang merupakan keturunan dari orang Indonesia dengan orang Eropa (Kebanyakan Belanda, Jerman, Prancis, Belgia). Itulah kenapa saya agak risih mendengar orang menyebut Indonesia dengan singkatan Indo. Karena kedua hal itu beda definisi dan arti. Sekarang apa itu Nyai? Apa definisi dari Nyai? Nyai adalah seorang perempuan pribumi (bisa jadi orang Indonesia asli), Tionghoa dan Jepang yang hidup bersama lelaki Eropa di masa Hindia Belanda. Hidup bersama atau samenleven yang artinya kumpul kebo, tidak menikah. Fungsinya nyai itu apa? Fungsinya diatas seorang baboe dan dibawah seorang istri, tapi wajib melakukan kewajiban seorang baboe dan istri. Karena mem

Soal ujian TOPIK vs EPS TOPIK

Setelah membahas perbedaan TOPIK dan EPS TOPIK , kali ini saya akan menulis materi tentang apa saja yg diujikan *agak sedikit detail ya*. Pengalaman mengikuti dan 'membimbing' untuk kedua ujian tersebut, jadi sedikit banyak mengetahui detail soal yg diujikan. Dimulai dari EPS TOPIK. Jika anda adalah warga yg ingin menjadi TKI/TKW di Korea, lulus ujian ini adalah wajib hukumnya. Kebanyakan dari mereka ingin cara singkat karena ingin segera berangkat sehingga menggunakan cara ilegal. Bahkan ada yg lulus tanpa ujian. Bisa saja, tapi di Korea dia mlongo. Untuk soal EPS TOPIK, soal-soal yg keluar adalah materi tentang perpabrikan dan perusahaan semacem palu, obeng, cangkul, cara memupuk, cara memerah susu sapi, cara mengurus asuransi, cara melaporkan majikan yg nggak bener, cara membaca slip gaji, sampai soal kecelakaan kerja. Intinya tentang bagaimana mengetahui hak dan kewajiban bekerja di Korea termasuk printilan yang berhubungan dengan pekerjaan. Karena yang melalui jalur ini
