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...

Prisca Wedding

Don't get me wrong, it's not my wedding. I am not married YET. And please don't ask me 'WHEN'. That is the most annoying question ever!

So this is Prisca wedding, another Prisca I've known. She is partly Bondowoso and Lombok, while her husband is originally from Lombok. Their wedding has been held in Lombok. Months ago Prisca said that no friends of her will come on her wedding since it is far from Java and need a lot of money to go there. She was personally asked me to come on her wedding, at least she can see one of her friend, one of someone she knows on her wedding. It was so touching and I said YES. I decided to come for two reason, her wedding, and holiday to Lombok. Good reasons right? tetiba miskin tabungan abis hhaha *becanda*


Our outfit at the wedding. Nggak sengaja samaan kayak seragam nikahannya


As you read on previous one, I flew to Lombok with Desi, another friend of us. She wants to come as well. So that is good, I am not going there alone.


We left hotel nearby hotel at 7 am. We went to the wedding place by travel car since it is too difficult to reach using public transportation, mengingat nggak ada taksi online maupun ojek online di Lombok. First we went to another Lombok friend, he was our class leader at college. Last time we met it was about 2 years ago. And he just got married a week ago. He and his wife finally live peacefully in his house that has been built by himself. Keren.

Aan and his wife. She is so cute 

Then we came to the wedding place at 9 am. Prisca said "HAVE TO BE THERE ON TIME". Dia paham kali ya kalo temennya ada yang hobi ngaret. Ok, not so ontime, but not so late either. We came together with the KUA person. Good.

There are drama between. The power outage happened for several times, even when that sacred thing happen. Ijab kabul maksudnya. I was so nervous, because I know what she did to finally be there in that place and being married witnessed by us. I know her struggle. So I was nervous as well. Finally, less than an hour, she is officially become Candra's wife. And I dont need to write another drama. 


They were so nervous

She looks so happy and her face look so glowing. Me and Desi talking about how different her face look like after being a wife. It is so different. But I can see she is so happy to be a wife now. But... although she is happy to be a wife, her face expression for my candid photo never looks so good. Maksudnya mukanya dia yang kejepret candid slalu ekspresi yang nggak bener dan nggak layak posting aja.

Sorry, a bit blurry. Nggak siap gara gara nggak tau kalo mereka udah masuk

Harusnya sih romantis, eh dia merem 




The wedding ceremony ended at 1 pm, and we all together going back home. I went with them to Candra house because we will stay there for a night.

Karena hasil jepretan fotografernya nggak muasin aku, kita wajib selfi sama newlywed ini

Dan emang kayaknya dia ga bisa diajak foto bagusan dikit

Everyone always feel happy when people around us are getting married. We all wish them all good wishes for those newlywed. HJ and his dad congratulate them and sent them some good wishes even though they never know her personally. But I often told them about this Prisca and another Prisca, mengingat kita itu beken dimana-mana sekarang. 

Prisca juga bilang ke kita 'kalian nggak mau doain kita punya anak kembar kah?', ya kalo mereka mau punya sih kita tinggal doain aja. Hal paling gampang yang bisa kita lakukan kan mendoakan dengan tulus. 

Anyway, Happy wedding another Prisca and Candra. Wish you both have happy life together ever after, sincerely 😘😘

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...

Pengalaman Bikin (Free) Schengen Visa di VFS Swiss

I know this is so normal but anyway I like to compare the experiences because people might have different cases and because I have nothing to lose so... here's my experience for applying Schengen Visa via Swiss (VFS). Kenapa nggak via Belanda? Karena rencana kita berkunjung lamanya ke Geneve - Swiss (ada urusan kerjaan suami gw) dan kami belum tau akan ke Belanda apa nggak saat itu (nggak jadi sih soalnya mepet banget).  Seperti yang sudah sering dibahas orang lain perihal syarat dan ketentuan apply Schengen visa, gw nggak akan nulis itu ya. Udah ada di website VFS, lengkap. Gw cuma tambahin dikit-dikit aja infonya yang mungkin sama seperti kasus yang baca kalo emang kebetulan sama sih 😂 "Ok jadi total pembayarannya 280 ribu rupiah ya" "HAH?? Cuma 200an mbak??? Visanya gratis???" "Suaminya masih WN Belanda kan mbak?" "Iya" "Oiya itu gratis, bisa pake visa tipe C. Jadi cuma bayar biaya admin aja" ...
