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...

I Thought I Hate People, but...

Sanur

... but I actually don't!

That I realized when I had dinner with H and he asked me, "Do you think she's married? The seller, she looks young but not too young." 

So I said, "Uhmm I don't know and I don't care." 

He then said again, "Yea I know, but I am curious about people. I am curious about what they're doing in life."

That's when it came to my mind, "Wait a minute! I am also curious about people, but not their personal life like marital status, how many kids they have, what religion they believe in. I am curious about what they think about things! Ah that's why I love talking to people, no matter how introvert I am but talking to people still excites me."

Then we finished our big nasi goreng together. 

Looking back at it, I never really like people randomly talking to me when I was in the zone... Like zoning in and out talking to myself. But actually no, maybe it was only that we didn't sync so I went "UGH WTF, I WANT PEACE."

I am not a person who will randomly going to a cafe and then talk to a bunch of strangers. If I were going to cafe, it's usually I want to do people-watching, but I don't want to be approached lol. Well it can happen sometimes but mostly somebody approached me first then my system work to analyse that person. It's good to have a small talk, random chit chat for an hour with stranger, but not too much 😅

I always like talking to people, with different mindset, with different culture, different beliefs, different everything. It's so fun that every conversation that happens, I learn a lot from it. As if "Woah, this is crazy!" and came back home feeling satisfied. But yea as an introvert, I need to limit myself and not interacting with more than 3 people at the same time. I still prefer to have one-one interaction. I still need to see if we sync each other. If we don't then I'll take a few steps back and disappear lol. 

So, yeah. Turns out, I don't hate people 😋 Though I still prefer sitting by myself, on the beach, and contemplating.

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

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...
