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.

I Don't Like Farewell

  8 March, I told my supervisor that I am going to resign  13 April was my last working day. I went to work and keep working like usual. I start to manage all work stuff so I can handover it to the successor. Agak kasian sama penerusnya, karena emang baru 2 minggu kerja eh langsung ditinggal. Yaudah deh pokoknya udah diajari poin-poinnya. Tinggal dia aja nerusin. Jam 5 kurang dikit, saya kirim email perpisahan ke semua user saya. Ke semua anak-anak saya yang ada di Thailand, India, Bangladesh. Terutama sih Thailand, itu bener-bener baru lair saya yang handle sampe hari kamis kemarin. Rasanya berat banget. But yeah... Dear Colleagues, This is my last day here. I would like to say billion of thanks for every chances, opportunity, supports, for every efforts while we are working together. It was so great to work with you all. Thank you for trusting me, thank you for the surprises (no days without surprises from you guys), thank you for every laugh, thank you f...

Life recently #4

maap buat eneg liat foto saya yak, yang ini foto ditembok rumah baru yang abis di cat. sayang kan kalo nggak dinodai dengan selfie 😎   Lama kayaknya absen ya. hemm padahal juga baru semingguan sih, atau dua minggu, tiga minggu? Entahlah ya, yang jelas absen ngerasa lama banget. Minggu lalu saya move in ke Malang. Balik kucing ceritanya. And thank god akhirnya nemu 'mlijo' sekitar kompleks. Heboh deh pokoknya pas pindahan. Yang heboh siapa? Mama papa mami om tante dan pembantunya. Saya? Nyante aja, wong mereka udah heboh. hebohnya itu, 'Masak apa? bawa apa? eh jangan lupa beli tahu disana, ntar aku yang bawa petis. oiya krupuknya versi A, B, C dibawa semua ya. trus cemilannya jangan lupa dong. Oiya sambelnya ya. aku masak kare ayam, udah jangan bawa banyak ayam. lainnya aja. Daging yak, sama ikan. Kasih lalapan lengkap ya'. Apalah kalo para wanita mau kemana-mana pikirannya swasembada kan ya. Kalo bapak-bapak yang dipikir obeng, las, tang, kunci, bor, apalah i...
