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, ...

Mereka adalah beberapa dari siswa Mayantara School yang berada dibawah asuhanku *bahasa gueh*. Kebanyakan mereka memang belajar Bahasa Korea. Kepada mereka, aku menyalurkan banyak ilmu. dan dari mereka pula aku belajar dan mendapat banyak ilmu baru. Mengajar, benar-benar bukan keinginanku. Tapi mengajarkan hal baru yang bermanfaat untuk orang lain merupakan satu kepuasan tersendiri. Stress kah ketika mengajar mereka?? Hmm mungkin stres hanya sekitar 5%, sisanya seneng. Kok bisa seneng?? karena menghadapi berbagai macam orang dengan macam-macam karakteristik. Sangat menyenangkan sekali bekerja berhadapan dengan makhluk hidup. Sepertinya tipe-tipe pekerjaan yang cocok buatku adalah bekerja dengan manusia, bukan dengan mesin atau benda.

I get salary not as much as officer or CEO or HRD in a big company. I know, but that salary is enough. My mindset isn't money oriented now. Not much salary but if I compare with other jobs that often make the workers get stress, I am happy being here. The situation, the students, the co workers, the owner, and everything here feel so good and really conducive. And that makes me think, "What if I become a teacher or professor??" *proses memikirkannya*

I know sometimes we have to move on. But maybe not now. Teaching here really give me lots experiences. A priceless experiences. We always improve our skills day by day. I get to improve my Korean skills and also not forget my mathematics.

Oh iya, aku dapat tugas baru untuk membuat soal latihan persiapan masuk universitas. Tantangan baru. Yahhh walaupun aku tidak akan membuat soal matematika sendiri, tapi pasti akan menjadi tantangan dan pengalaman baru.

Bekerja dengan hati. Itulah intinya. Bekerjalah dengan hati, maka kau akan bahagia dan rajin bekerja :)

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

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...

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...
