Fire in the Building

Who would have thought that I  experienced fire in the building.  This is my first time living in an appartement. Of course I never chose appartement when living in Indonesia because it’s a real high risk when the earthquake happen. But here we are placed in an appartement. What got me relieved the first time that we are in the lowest floor so if something happen we will be quickly evacuated.  That’s what I thought.  Until it really happened.  We slept around midnight and abruptly woken up by the noise outside. I thought it was the drunk people just got back from night club or the restaurant next door was doing some deep cleaning. So loud that I had to wake up. My husband peeked outside and immediately said “fire brigade outside, you wait here!” I was just “am I dreaming or what?” I put on clothes, checked outside and saw a few of fire trucks. I checked the other side of the appartement and saw a few of police cars and ambulances.  “Oh no, something serious...

Inspirative

"Treat hijab as a protection for yourself. Look at the good things that you will gain when you wear it. Yes it's simpler without it, but with it, is better right? It's not about being ready or not. It's about willingness to wear it. If you are willing, you will be consistent and you will continue to wear it all the way. Just don't give up :D and you are also representing the religion. So show others what islam really is. You can do it!"

That was my friend said to me when I told him I wanna wear hijab consistently

Cara Memilih Bacaan

Pulang - Leila Chudori Pengalaman gw mulai menyukai membaca karena bukunya yang bagus. Kata orang jangan judge buku dari sampulnya. Gw termasuk orang yang suka judge buku dari sampul. Tapi itu bukan hal yang utama dong tentunya. Itu hanya ekstra poin aja.  Pertama kali gw baca buku dan tiba-tiba suka adalah saat papa yang waktu itu pulang, bawain gw buku ensiklopedia yang isinya sejarah dan astronomi. Itu yang bikin gw langsung suka baca, karena materinya bikin gw berbinar. Itu juga awal mula gw suka astronomi.  Perjalanan sebagai pembaca tentu saja lama sekali. Beberapa genre gw coba baca, kadang suka, kadang nggak suka. Hingga akhirnya gw tau apa yang bikin gw akan baca buku itu.  "Halaman pertama tulisannya" Gaya menulis orang itu pasti selalu berbeda. Meskipun mirip dengan yang lain, pasti akan ada karakter pembedanya. Itu biasanya terlihat dari halaman pertama tulisannya. Bayangkan, meski materinya bagus tapi penyampainya nggak bagus juga nggak akan nyangkut di pemb...

Pakai Debit Jenius di Luar Negeri

Amsterdam Central Station  Ini pertama kalinya pakai debit Jenius di luar negeri. Pemakaian ini menggunakan sumber dana EUR yang ada di aplikasi. Jadi uang yang keluar adalah uang EUR, bukan IDR.  Untuk buka rekening valas di Jenius, tinggal ditambahkan saja bagian buka akun valas lalu pilih kurs yang diinginkan. Di kasus ini gw punya rekening EUR di Jenius yang ditujukan untuk transaksi di Eropa.  Karena kemarin lagi di Belanda, akhirnya pengen coba pakai debit card Jenius karena EDC di Belanda belum tentu bisa untuk kartu kredit saja. Sebelum digunakan tentunya jangan lupa untuk menyambungkan kartu debit ke rekening mata uang asingnya biar sumber pengeluaran juga langsung dari tabungan valas itu. Tinggal klik klik aja kok. Tibalah saatnya menggunakan mata uang EUR yang sudah kubeli dari Jenius. Waktu itu gw pakainya di Schipol, di dua toko berbeda, dan keduanya nggak bisa tap langsung. Jadi harus insert kartu, tentu bukan masalah.  Karena terbiasa dengan transaksi...
