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...

Ala kadarnya, rasa juara

Surabaya, orang selalu bilang Surabaya surganya makanan enak. Ah masa sih? Nggak percaya sih dulunya. Tapi setelah tinggal di Surabaya, barulah mengerti apa maksudnya. Di Surabaya memang kota yang tidak pernah tidur. Semalam sepagi apapun selalu ada makanan yang tersedia di jalanan. Dan hampir setiap makanan di Surabaya itu rasanya enak dengan harga yang murah.

Kadang penampilan mereka kurang meyakinkan. Penampilan warung yang kurang menjamin rasa, eh tapi jangan salah. Setelah mencoba bisa langsung jatuh cinta dengan rasanya. Karena banyak sekali penampilan depan sangat kurang meyakinkan, tapi setelah mencoba makanannya langsung berujar “heran ya, tampilan kayak gini tapi kok rasanya juara banget”.

Jadi banyak warung yang awalnya nggak yakin mau beli, tapi temen bilang enak yaudah akhirnya beli dan memang eatable banget rasanya. Di dekat kos saja misal, ada lalapan yang sambelnya pedes banget dan itu penampilan warungnya seperti orang yang nggak niat jualan. Tapi rasanya juara kok. Ada lagi makanan pagi depan kos yang tampilannya juga kurang meyakinkan tapi rasanya enak banget.

Mungkin itulah alasan si dia suka makan di warung karena dia selalu merasa kalau masakan warung selalu terasa homey banget rasanya.

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

Write Down Your Dreams, They Said.

Moscow Yes, all things I have and I do right now is all the things that I have written down on papers, during my sleeps, in my consciousness, in my visions. So let's do that again here.  I have another dream that I really think of. It's the thing I want to do when I have so much money, or enough money, or when money doesn't matter anymore, or who knows!  I wanna build a school for kids who can't afford to go to school. I want them to pay nothing, and I want them to learn the basic things like how to respect others, how to tell people their ideas/opinions, familiarize them with being kind, how to think logically, how to solve problems, etc. All the basic survival things in life.  I think my passion is always in education, but I don't always like to follow the old-school rules. There are so many important things we don't learn at school that I think should be taught there. Once we graduate from school, we usually don't know how to navigate life. Who taught you...
