If Money Wasn't The Problem, What Would You Do?

In this extraordinary life, I would be a teacher still.  Helping people to understand even some little things to make them feel worthy and understand themselves better. It seems that teaching has become a calling for me. Not about teaching such specific subject like mathematics or so, but more like... I like to give new perspectives for people, and having them saying "Oh.... I see..." is satisfying for me. Of course, by teaching I can learn so many new perspectives from different people too. It's like the more I teach the more I learn, and that is so true. Maybe more like a guide. I like giving guidance to people who needs it. No, I don't like giving unsolicited guiding. I like to guide people who wants to be guided. I'd teach them how to love, love themselves first. Yea sure when we are talking about things, they would say "do useful things like engineering, plumbing, this and that" but they tend to forget that we need some balance in life. Not saying t

Gagal Diving

 

I was doubting for awhile to take diving course because : I can't swim properly, I am afraid of deep down underwater (because it is dark), and I am afraid of accidentally meet the sharks.

But then I said yes for that. Why? Because this experience you couldn't take when you have babies lol. At least I tried to open to a new thing that I was so afraid of. Lebih tepatnya parno sih.

We spent our first day watched video about diving, explanation and this and that. Dry. Well.. I mean you sit down for hours, watching and listening to diving theories and stuff. Dry, tiring, and make us sleepy after lunch. Kinda slow for that... because we stop it when we saw deer approaching us and focus on taking photo of them 😜 and also it consist of 5 parts and loonngg.

 

 

So first day, exhausted and fun 😛

Second day, supposed to practice in a pool for whole theory we watched, but end up only 2 parts (incomplete pula). Why? Again, here, it is me, slow slow.

Well.. first she taught us to install the SCUBA stuff. Getting to know the function of each part then install it for 5 times. Bongkar pasang begitu. After that, she ask us to swim for 300m without stop and floating for 10 minutes. WOWOWOWOWOWWWW WAIT! I can swim but have problem with breathing. Then she gave me complete stuff for snorkeling and I did it. Took more than 15 minutes to control myself with those stuff and fin and 300 meters means I have to swim around the swimming pool for 10 times. I did it. I made it. TBH I kinda proud of myself lol.

 
belajar nyembur air dalam snorkel, yang tekniknya sama kek nyembur pake SCUBA 

Next is floating. Behhh..... susah men. I was like 'uhmm hemm it is not easy for me'. 15 minutes they teach me how to float, surprisingly I can do it. I did it for first 5 minutes then HJ tease me so I tease him back then I sink lol. So I have to do it from the beginning again uhh yea so I float for 15 minutes haha.

 
inilah kenapa muka jadi gosong ya

After that, we were trying our SCUBA stuff. Learn how to breathing from that thing because when we dive don't stop breathing. We have to keep breathing, never hold it. Semakin dalam menyelam, semakin cepat habis gas yang kita gunakan untuk bernapas.

We also learn about sign language under water. That was easy. Then learn how to share the air we have, and other skills. And then it's time to dive with those complete stuff. GOD! I must have some hearing problems that day, it really give me pain in first meter I dive. They dont have it. So the pressure make it worse. I gave up and the training done for that day. Was also caused by thunder and raining after lunch, so we did our written exams. We always have exams afterwards.

Surprisingly, at night, I get cough. I don't really know why. I wonder if it is caused by the SCUBA but HJ and Jenny (instructor) have no problem with that. Next day it get worse. Cough, sore throat, even now when I am writing this I still have cough. We decided not doing the course that day. I need to get rest and see if its getting better or worse. But still, worse even little bit fever. So I gave up. Then we change the plan.

  
our lunch. HJ pesen ayam sambal matah, saya pesen gado-gado tapi setengah porsi gado-gadonya pindah tempat ke box sebelah

We did Balinese massage lol, and snorkeling next day in Menjangan island. So yea, I did snorkeling and saw the baby sharks. GOD it was so amazing to see them like face to face, hmmm boong sih, I was right above them. It scare me out  really... then they go away and I was like fiuhhh thank god. But that was surprising me and amazing haha (meskipun sebenernya mereka nggak bakal gigit kita sih).

Unfortunately there are some plastic there when we snorkel. Not that much but some is already annoys me, and of course distract me and made me feel 'is this shark who touch me????' haha... Anyway I saw a lot of blue sea stars and I want to take em home 😃

So yea... We didn't get to finish my diving class, but we got credits for what we did two days before. So we just need to continue the class later. We don't need to start it from the beginning again. I hope that it can be done in future 😇

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

Ujian hari senin

Kejadian ini terjadi tepat senin minggu lalu. Baru kali itu aku merasa 'WOW.. ini senin yeay'. Karena biasanya 'haduhh udah senen lagi'. Kebayang kan kalo seneng begitu dihari senen menyambut pagi dan hari itu rasanya langka banget. Otomatis pengennya hari itu berlangsung indah. Jam setengah 9 pagi, seperti biasa ke pantry ambil minum bareng sama temen sebangku. Dia bikin teh, aku nyuci botol sekalian ngisi dong. Seperti biasa juga, kadang aku males sih nyuci botol dengan ritual lengkapnya, akhirnya cuman bilas pake air panas. Ya mungkin nggak sampe 50 ml juga. Dikit banget deh. Temen juga selalu bersihin gitu gelasnya pake air panas. Pic source is here Eh lakok lakok... si bapak pantry yang serem itu tiba-tiba bilang 'Gak bisa ya gak nyuci botol pake air panas? Tiap sore itu banyak komplain gara-gara airnya abis'. Yakaliii air abis tinggal isi aja, ibu yang dulu aja nggak pernah ada komplain. Ya aku bilang lah ini cuman dikit, lagian yang ngelakuin ini
