Romanticizing My Cooking

Bakso I have to admit that my love for cooking is growing. It's growing and I can't believe it myself. This feeling has been like this since probably two years ago. Before, cooking felt like a hard work that I had to fulfill. It still is, but the difference is I enjoy it now. So it does not feel like I am forcing myself.  Back then whenever I cooked, it's either wrong recipe or incorrect measurement. It never tasted right. So I gave up cooking just because I never found the right one. And then I started to feel that I wanna eat better. I don't want to just eat whatever, I want to know what goes into my body. If I prepare it myself, then I know it's good one.  I don't eat too much sugar, sometimes it is hard to buy one thing outside and has a lot of sugar in it. So cooking it myself will allow me to control the amount of sugar. So I found recipes and I tried to make them. As to my surprise, they taste right! Exactly how they should have tasted. That made me happy

How are you?

Hello there! It's been awhile. I am so occupied here (with what? lol). Let's catch up on some things.

So how are you? Alles goed? I almost finish my Dutch lesson level 1. I can make a complete sentence now so I am happy that FINALLY!!! At least now I can say more than just Ik hou van jou 😂 I definitely will continue my lesson and thinking about taking French after that 😇

I've been working with someone from Canada, remotely. And I am taking a branding course that really interesting for me. So every time I walk into some shops or see some branding things I would be like "Hmm is that true that you're eco friendly or it is just greenwashing? Ah I know you use this to cover your previous fail branding about that issue!" 😂 On a serious note, I am really interested with this branding stuff and would love to share some when I finish. I will only share what I need to share 😋

I am little bit avoiding login into my social media accounts although it is not easy to do that I still need to log into it to catch up some news. The news lately making me so stressful that make me feel exhausted and tired even siomay and es kopi can't fix my mood. That's a serious thing when foods can't fix me. So I decided to skip for some days. Then when it got little bit chill, my husband sent me some news that I knew since last week and started to talk about it. Oh boy. That was intense.

  
Let's chill. Go get some ice cream

I don't want to talk about the protest and everything happened for the last couple of week, but I am so concerned about people who doesn't know about marital rape. Where almost everybody think that marital rape is okay. Ok we're talking about the real rape where there are no consent from one side. Not the "rape" term as in BDSM. No women, you're allowed to say no if you are tired or not in the mood or sick or anything to your husband. (and vice versa). It is not sinful. Align your logic to your holy book, and you'll find the match.

Oh catching up some about these religious thing pressure, I am un-followed by some friends that finds me annoying because I am criticizing too much about religion and thought that I am convert. They can't handle my guts. Ah they love me, talked about me behind my back. So lovely 😊

Three months living in Bali, make me happy. I feel that I found myself (more) and really enjoying it. When people asked, "Does it feel like everyday is sunday in Bali?" I can say yes to that 😊 it is so enjoyable and liberating living in a place where there is nobody tell you what to do.

 
Seminyak

So I think that's it. I will write more soon. Have a good day everybody 😉

Note: due to our complicated situation lately make the stock market dropping down. It is a good time to buy some stock. Go get some stock pals!

Mengenal Nyai, Eyang Buyut Orang Indo Kebanyakan

  Seperti yang pernah saya tulis sebelumnya tentang darah campuran Eropa, saya pernah janji nulis tentang orang Indo dan Nyai, nenek buyut dari para Indo kebanyakan. Sekarang kita liat definisi dari Indo sendiri. Jadi Indo (Indo-Europeaan atau Eropa Hindia) adalah para keturunan yang hidup di Hindia Belanda (Indonesia) atau di Eropa yang merupakan keturunan dari orang Indonesia dengan orang Eropa (Kebanyakan Belanda, Jerman, Prancis, Belgia). Itulah kenapa saya agak risih mendengar orang menyebut Indonesia dengan singkatan Indo. Karena kedua hal itu beda definisi dan arti. Sekarang apa itu Nyai? Apa definisi dari Nyai? Nyai adalah seorang perempuan pribumi (bisa jadi orang Indonesia asli), Tionghoa dan Jepang yang hidup bersama lelaki Eropa di masa Hindia Belanda. Hidup bersama atau samenleven yang artinya kumpul kebo, tidak menikah. Fungsinya nyai itu apa? Fungsinya diatas seorang baboe dan dibawah seorang istri, tapi wajib melakukan kewajiban seorang baboe dan istri. Karena mem

Soal ujian TOPIK vs EPS TOPIK

Setelah membahas perbedaan TOPIK dan EPS TOPIK , kali ini saya akan menulis materi tentang apa saja yg diujikan *agak sedikit detail ya*. Pengalaman mengikuti dan 'membimbing' untuk kedua ujian tersebut, jadi sedikit banyak mengetahui detail soal yg diujikan. Dimulai dari EPS TOPIK. Jika anda adalah warga yg ingin menjadi TKI/TKW di Korea, lulus ujian ini adalah wajib hukumnya. Kebanyakan dari mereka ingin cara singkat karena ingin segera berangkat sehingga menggunakan cara ilegal. Bahkan ada yg lulus tanpa ujian. Bisa saja, tapi di Korea dia mlongo. Untuk soal EPS TOPIK, soal-soal yg keluar adalah materi tentang perpabrikan dan perusahaan semacem palu, obeng, cangkul, cara memupuk, cara memerah susu sapi, cara mengurus asuransi, cara melaporkan majikan yg nggak bener, cara membaca slip gaji, sampai soal kecelakaan kerja. Intinya tentang bagaimana mengetahui hak dan kewajiban bekerja di Korea termasuk printilan yang berhubungan dengan pekerjaan. Karena yang melalui jalur ini
