Sustainable Way to "Dump" our Waste

Sticker from eco-bali recycling October is funny month. We have this crisis of burning landfield in Bali, and they haven't pick up my trash for 2 months. Probably over two months now. We're like "Okay it's time to swap to the sustainable options" Yea we've been thinking about composting, but I do not know where to start. Because, you know, when you did it wrong it can be stinky and worm-y and not working out well. Turns out, they have composting company that provide the bin, the pickup, and even got the compost back monthly or per 6 months. I did not know that but of course my husband found it and planned to sign up for it.  The week where we had that plan on mind, suddenly in the morning there was a guy from this company came to our house delivering the composting bin. "No we did not order this, yet" Apparently the neighbor ordered their service but they got the address wrong. The next day, the same guy came again, brought his empty composting bin f

Hey Grandpa

Hey Grandpa, it's been a long time I didn't write to you. Hmm did I tell you about me, about what had happened to me recently? Guess I didn't. Now let me tell you few things in my life a bit.

I moved to Surabaya since September 2015. As you know this city wouldn't be my choice at all, but 8months here I start to enjoy it. I feel fine and it is ok now. Hmm maybe because I am easy to adapt in new place. I left half of my heart in Malang. Malang will always be part of me and I always be a part of Malang. Proud to see Aremania there. Blue and Lions everywhere. But I have to leave it for now. I will be back to Malang, someday.

I am now working in one of best multinational company here. Maybe you would be happy to see it. Mama and mami are happy as well. Well, I enjoy it now. It is fine. I wish I could tell you directly about it 😊

Ohh Papi, Dhea got accepted in one of best university. Where I really want to work there haha, she has this good oportunity by the way. Proud of her. She works really really hard and as we know, efforts never betray the result itself. She even didn't date any of her friends like I did when I was 18. She doesn't make time for it. All she knows just studying and studying. Not so good, but she enjoy it with her own ways to.

And Cimi, she had her phone to play games. She loves games. She is grown up so fast. She is 9 years old and she always pray when she has exams or she want something. 'Cim, have you pray?', she will answer 'yes of course, tomorrow is exams so I pray everyday'. 'Ehhh do you think by praying only you will get a good score?', then she said 'hmm maybe yes, I hope'. Mum will say 'GO GET YOUR BOOK AND STUDY!'.

It is funny. She is funny. Other day she pray 'Ya Allah, give my dad and mum much money so they could buy me a phone with full of games'. She always act funny. Just had her birthday, 9 years old and she got a phone.

Mami in a good condition, as long as she is active to talk and us as her objects to release anger, that is mean she is healthy. Totally healthy. Dad and mum are fine as well.

Ooh.. I met someone. Someone whom I trust and I love. We love each other. But I am just worried if I am not good enough for him. If only you could see him, I bet you would like him as mama and mami does. They like him. At first, they don't let us to go further, slowly but sure they start to change their minds and let us to go further. I am happy to meet him. Yes we have some difficulties but difficult doesn't mean impossible. He would take care of me. Hmm I wish you could see him in person and tell him to take care of me, your first granddaughter. Or maybe you would say 'you have to respect your man, obey him, and have a good life with him'.

I wish I could turn back the time. I know I can't. I just miss you. Miss the way you look at me. Miss the way you tell me things about life. Miss the way you tell me about the life you had when Dutch came to colonialize us. Oh by the way, the man I love is a Dutchie Papi. I wish you would like him and maybe tell him a little about our countries history. I think he would love to hear it although he knows a lot about our countries history.

I am here, always miss you, Papi.

Gojek ke bandara juanda

While waiting, jadi mending berbagi sedikit soal gojek. Karena saya adalah pengguna setia gojek, saya pengen cobain ke bandara pake gojek. Awalnya saya kira tidak bisa *itu emang sayanya aja sih yang menduga nggak bisa*, trus tanya temen katanya bisa karena dia sering ke bandara pakai motornya. Nah berarti gojek bisa dong?? Sebelum-sebelumnya kalo naek gojek selalu bayar cash, tapi kali ini pengen cobain top up go pay. Minimum top up 10ribu. Jadi saya cobain deh 30ribu dulu. Eh ternyata lagi ada promo 50% off kalo pake go pay. Haiyaaaaa kenapa ga dari dulu aja ngisi go pay hahaha. Dari kantor ke bandara juanda sekitar 8km. Kantor saya sih daerah rungkut industri. Penasarannn banget ini abang mau lewat mana ya. Tertera di layar 22ribu, tapi karena pakai go pay diskon 50% jadinya tinggal 11ribu. Bayangin tuhh... pake bis damri aja 30ribu hahaha. 11ribu udah nyampe bandara. Biasanya 15ribu ke royal plaza dari kantor haha. Lagi untung. Bagus deh. Nah sepanjang perjalanan, saya mikir ter

[Piknik] Prambanan lagi

Salah satu pesona Jawa Tengah adalah Candi Prambanan. Saya sudah 3 kali berkunjung ke situs warisan dunia ini. Candi yang terletak di perbatasan Jawa Tengah dan jogja ini selalu menimbulkan kesan mistis bagi saya. Terletak tak jauh dari jalan raya, sehingga mengunjunginya pun sangat mudah. Berbeda dengan Candi Borobudur yang letaknya sangat jauh dari jalan raya besar.  Ok, menurut saya ada 3 cara menuju candi ini. Menggunakan bus transjogja, taksi, dan kendaraan pribadi. Bagi yang menggunakan transjogja, saya pernah menggunakannya berangkat dari daerah kampus UNY, daerah Depok Sleman. 1 kali transit, 2 kali berganti bus. Dengan harga transjogja yang kala itu, 2014, seharga 3500 rupiah. Tapi sampai saat ini masih sama harganya, menurut info dari teman. Lokasi shelter bis berada agak jauh dari pintu masuk lokasi candi, mungkin kira-kira 500meter sampai 1kilometer. Kalau jalan, menghabiskan waktu sekitar 15-20menit. Bisa juga naik becak untuk opsi yang lain. Lagi-lagi, jangan lupa men
