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...

Snorkeling



‘Sayang, snorkeling yuk’

‘yuk!!!!’

Oh wait! I cant swim!

Sembari diketawain HJ, ‘you should learn how to swim since 5’

Duh aku butuh solusi!

Then somebody said ‘don’t worry, they have life jacket for you. You can do it although you can’t swim’
Yes! Cerah duniaku!

Ternyata, baru 2 tempat udah keok. Udah nggak kuat. Kaki udah kram, tangan udah pegel banget. Dan aku cenderung floating tapi ngadep langit. Ya apa apaan kalo endingnya ngambang tapi ngadep langit. Snorkeling kan ngadep bawah.

Pasalnya, pasalnya, itu kacamata snorklingnya itu bocor. Bukan bocor sih, tapi nggak water resistant. Duh apa sih namanya, semacem ngerembes gitu lho. Jadi kan udah nggak bisa renang ya, langsung dicemplungin laut, syok kaget trus napas pake idung. Dasar begoooo. La kan napas harus pake mulut ya. Duhh ini otak nggak singkron banget sih. Yang 2 lokasi pertama sih nggak seberapa bagus kata HJ dibandingin dengan 2 lokasi terakhir. Soalnya 2 lokasi terakhir itu liat kura-kura gede banget dan liat fish garden. Yang mana aku udah keok nggak berani nyemplung lagi. yaudah jadinya aku nunggu di boat ngobrol cantik sama mas-mas kapalnya. 

Btw, this was my first snorkeling. Dan dan dan…tetep jadi satu-satunya orang indonesia dikapal itu. Ini awak kapalnya jangan diitung lho ya. Itung penumpangnya aja, aku jadi yang paling eksotis sekapal. Read : yang bermuka paling kusem.


Promised him two things, to learn swim so we can dive later. Diving lho!!! Bayangkan! Diving!! Renang aja masih gaya batu dada, malah diving! Dia bilangnya ‘diving in shark point’. Sepuntene mas, budal o dewe. 

note: kita nggak bawa hape, kamera apapun sama sekali. jadi nggak ada sesi dokumentasi di part ini

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...

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
