Surviving -20 Celcius in Moscow

frozen lake in Moscow I'd say surviving because I am a tropical girl coming from 30-35 degree Celcius. So yes, this is about surviving such differences in temperature. I spent my whole life in a tropical country then I have to be in a -20 celcius, not an easy situation.  Obviously, I came prepared. I have been in a 0 celcius and learned that double triple layering is the right answer. Moscow has heater that runs nonstop since the beginning of (probably, I dont remember) November until early May. So you technically can not turn it off or on. Many days it gets too hot inside. Going to the mall in Moscow got me super sleepy and tired because it feels most of the time like in Sauna. So, double triple layering in Moscow is the right thing to do.  November temperature usually started to feel chilly, still not lower than 0. December will get colder can be minus. But January and February are the coldest season. This year dropped to -20 (that I can remember). The average temperature wa...

Dear men

Dear men outside there,

You were created to love and protect us, women
You are stronger than us, women
You are have much more responsibilities than us, women
You are born to be a leader of us, women

And who we are?
We are women that always need your protection
Need to be loved by you, men
Need to be treated gently by you, men

Sometimes, you always want a beautiful woman beside you
You want a smart woman
A woman who are good at cooking
A woman who could handle and educate your kids
A woman who could attract you in physically looks
A woman who always looks cute and adorable
Even maybe sexy and gorgeous everytime

And what we want from men?
A man who will always keep their words
A man who never breaks their words
A man who are not only promising, but proving

Do we need sweet words and promises from you?
Yes, women will fall for you more when you whisper sweet words in their ears
Yes, women loves to hear it

But for me, who have mathematical mindset on me, I dont need sweet words or promises
The only one thing I need is a proof.
A theorem wont be valid when it doesnt have any proof
And something that doesnt have proof, wont be used for something important in solving problems

What does it mean?
Things that I need from a man, keep his words and prove that their words are not bullshit.
One time break it, respect you less
Second time break it, less more
and next.. dont blame me if I dont have any respect to you anymore

I am sorry for writing like this,
It just become a question since few times ago
Just... prove us that you guys are reliable guys who keep your words and will not hurt our heart by breaking your words.

But everything happen for reason
This is make myself have a defense from your words already.
I want to believe, but now I cant believe until I have the proof.
When you have your proofs, that time I will believe that your words are trustworthy.

From a woman who get hurted by her important men in life.

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...

Tiga bulan pertama hidup di luar Indonesia

Gw kira rasanya akan sama aja. Ada rasa kangen ya wajar karena jauh dari tempat yang selama ini kita sebut familiar. Tapi ternyata ada rasa rindu yang pukulannya berbeda.  Di kasus gw, gw cuma kenal satu orang Indonesia. Beliau bilang kalau mau temen jalan-jalan bisa lah berkabar biar jalan bareng. Tapi karena gw ada kerja dari senin-jumat, sedangkan beliau nggak, jadinya waktu kami seringkali nggak pas. Sedangkan di akhir pekan, gw habiskan bersama suami.  Bulan pertama masih terasa integrasi. Berusaha mengenal supermarket mana yang jual apa. Cari ini itu di mana. Menghafal jalur transportasi umum. Mengenal, membaca dan memahami nama daerah atau tempat dari huruf cyrilic-nya untuk sekedar "kalau nyasar, bisa kasih tau suami lagi ada di mana" karena seringkali online maps dihambat pemerintah.  Bulan kedua sudah mulai mengenal banyak hal. Sudah punya kartu atm untuk pembayaran. Visa panjang juga sudah di tangan. Mulai berhati-hati dengan banyak hal, mana yang boleh mana ya...
