BLAST Malaysia & S'pore Trip 2014! Day 3


Assalamualaikum everyone..
Actually im bit lazy to review the 3rd day activities, because it was kinda boring.

Well let's spill it out...

First, we got up early and having breakfast in the hotel.
The Breakfast buffet was pretty good. But i think it was too much to serve RENDANG in the morning--actually Rendang is a dish from Padang, West Sumatera, Indonesia--It'sa meat cooked with Coconut Milk and Herbs and Spices. But thanks God the rice is normal no more Nasi Lemak. 
But do not worry ROYAL KL did serve such american breakfast, and french toast.

Next the first stop it was Sunway Pyramid Mall it's a big mall betewe just like Grand Indonesia but with Egyptian Interior nithing Special sih. BUT there was a lil bit funny story out there,
Rite after we got one round strolling one floor haha, anyway I was accompanied by MOOZA RED from TUSK BAG. it was so spacious and fit my travel activities.
My dad also got his turn. HAHAHAHA... <3 br="">
So as we know mostly Malaysian speak engloish beside speak Melayu rite, but it was so haaaardddd to talk in english with the waiters in one of Resto. and it was like i got to tell him about World War III just to asked them one more lil plate :( kinda pathetic sorry if i being too much.
Nah, i went to the DAISO too in there. The price was lil bit less than Indonesia price, in indonesia we got to spend--approx--Rp.22000 per item, but out there we only got to spend Rp15.000 or 19.000 ya? Ugh sorry my bad i dont remember it well.
  
Next we were dropped in I-City Shah Alam. There's no fee to enter this theme park. the charges will only be charged if you take a ride.
Well, I-City is actually a complex of stores that re-decorated to become a theme park.

There's tricky eye museum,  I dont remember the entrance fee. the owner said that all the paints were imported from South Korea. The museum isnt that big, but so far it's pretty entertaining to heal the boredom in I-City :(

We ended the trip in I-City with a bowl of shaved ice. 

On our way back home we visited a choco factory which i forget its name, wait im gonna google it..Oh yea it was Beryl's chocolate kingdom. they said it was one of the best chocolate in the world. But My tongue just will love MONGGO'S FINE DARK CHOCOLATE that Beryl's Chocolate.[FYI, Monggo Chocolate is Indonesian Chocolate]. by the way the recommended chocs from this store was 

  •          Tiramisu Choc, it looks like almond. actually it was almond cover up with white choc, and toppeed up with dark choc. First bite it was sooooo bitter, and it turns to sweeettt! 
  •           Dark Chocs 70% it's goood for your heart, for whoever who got heart disease.

We were heading back to hotel, and get rested.
After pray Magrib, we went for strolling around Bukit Bintang area, and we ended bought some chocs (again) and some tourist stuff. mwehehehe...
For dinner we choose McD for tonite instead of KFC cause of i didnt like KFC rice which is Nasi Lemak. I was craving for plain white rice.
But....
McD dont have rice, so we went to french fries YEAY! VIVA LA POTATOOOO.
My sisters and my mom had a splendid shopping rite there, my sister got Korean Edgy Style Bag, while my lil sister got 2 neck pillows, which is feel more comfy that with our already had one. And my mom, since she was in much pain wearing one shoulder bag, so she went to Polo creamy backpack that was bought in the first Parkson Outlet, which is located in Sungai Weng.

Finish our dinner in hotel room, we hit the bed late, cause we got the packing up all, cause the next day, we're gonna leave KL.



XOXO,


Racita,
wait for my next mummmering rite! ciao fellaaa....
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               Too bad cause the 3rd days there was any special event and we just ended up shopping there's no moro pics unless pic ive put in this post.

BLAST Malaysia & S'pore Trip 2014! Day 2

Assalamualaikum! I'm back.. hihihi i want to end this review soon, emang gabakat jadi  travel writter.
Udah 3 kali ke Bali dari dulu juga gada satu pun yang saya buat review. Pulau Seribu, Solo, Yogya trips are also just written in my mind ehehehe.

Back to the Day 2, after we had buffet breakfast dengan pilihan menu yang ngga sebanyak buffet dinner, daaaaannnn...... pagi-pagi udah disuguhi rendang. emang melayu abis deh menu nya. tapi ada juga kok sereals or french toast for western tourists.


ini pemandangan dari lantai gatau lantai berapa lupa, ehehe!

the fog! 
next check out dna kembali naik Cable Car another stiff 15 minutes moment! Selanjutnya kita ke BATU CAVES! (CMIIW) eh iya kan namanya itu, JSYK My lack at rememorizing ehehehe..

Nah, sempet ada kejadian ga enak nih jadi bis dari tour waktu itu koplingnya rusak, gatau deh pokoknya sampe di jok supirr itu berasap, and it was super duper bad smell. make it worse kita semua turun dan jalan kaki ke BATU CAVES, emang udah deket banget sih cuman jalan di kolong jembatan layang yang macet dan kumuh itu begimana gituu.. hehehe.

Balik ke cerita yaa....
Kalau mau ke gua nya kita harus naik anak tangga yang masya alloh banyak banget dan udara hari itu panas gila! Jadi yaa hapunten we yah! duh roaming bahasanya, maksud saya ya makasi aja deh bang mening saya ngasi makan burung-burung merpati terus nangkring di toko india beli teh tarik.
Hih ya terus mulai beli souvenir juga. Penjualnya orang bangladesh apa pakistan gitu, but they speak english and bahasa well! and the prices is so good! even though in such tourism area.
memandang dari bawah juga cukup kok! kan saya juga gakan berdoa diatas nanti.

Istana Negara Sultan Malaysia, duh gatau nama lengkapnya apa pokoknya itu deh, selain bis gue juga banyak bis lain yang berkunjung disini, but unfortunately, Rain was pouring down and so hard! jadi ya kita nunggu di bis, kemudian ga lama hujan berenti, so we have short walk in front of the palace.

There's a lot western tourist too took a pictures here. i dont know that they're really interest to the palace or it's just accidentally because mostly western tourist take a city tour by KL HOP ON HOP BUS--the two stories bus. This bus not only take you to have city tour, but this bus also travel from KL to Spore!


ma familia picture! sumpeh silauu banget pas difoto meskipun mendung (?)





KL TOWER! was the next stop on our city tour. when we arrived there, we directly queue on group visitors line. that day there was a wedding held in the sky resto--hehe i dont remember the resto's name. Actually on KL Tower itself there's some places to visit like aquarium, theaters or something else AGAINN i dont remember and moreover because i only went to the obsevartory deck.

To get the observ deck, we took the lift. the lift size isnt that big it fits for almost 20 peops. Its speed is also quick about in minutes we reach the observ deck.



yeay! after short city tour we checked in to the Hotel it was HOTEL ROYAL KUALA LUMPUR in Bukit Bintang the shopping area. my hotel is right next to Park Royal Hotel. it just took minutes to the shopping places, such Bukit Bintang, Sungai Wei (?)--CMIIW. HnM Forever21 is around the place, the junction was crowded and surrounded by Malls. a good place for you fashionista, but nothing special.


oh the night we went nowhere because of the bad weather, just stay in our room and having KFC as dinner. Btw the rice in KFC there is Nasi Lemak or known as Nasi Uduk in Indonesia, for you who dont know, it is a rice that cooked with coconut milk. I wasnt into it, i want a normal rice :(


MY HOTEL ROOM IN ROYAL KUALA LUMPUR HOTEL.


First, the Lobby is not that spacious, only there's few couples of chair, maybe they thought that this hotels was designed for such sophaholic or bussiness man that only need a bed to crash on the night.
The Room is Huge!!! Compared to my room in Genting maybe it was double size. (Since i believe that it was cost the same or similiar with my room in Genting)
The Bed Size is Queen Size, so thats really enough for me and my sisters,it was facing the TWIN TOWERS! Yippie such a good scenery. 


Unfortunately i took picture in Snapchat so i didnt save anything.the image taken from here



(-) Four Stars
Hotel.

(+) There's TV CABLE! and the channels was complete enough.
(+) The Bathroom! It's really huge, there's no BATHTUBE and instead of showers. There's water heater of course, i dont know maybe because it was raining season or maybe the weather is usually that cold.
(+) There's flatiron and so does with the table.
(+) HairDryer for the sake of rambut ketje so does hijab ketje!
(+) 2 bottle of mineral waters per day.

(-) It's old hotel, so the interior lil bit too way classy.


Enough for today post, wkkwkw wish me could end this review any soooon!!!

BLAST Malaysia & S'pore Trip 2014! Day 1


Assalamualaikum everyone.

Yeay finally! HOLIDAY. After a really tough days in 2014. Akhirnya saya dan sekeluarga bisa liburan bareng yang lumayan jauh. Terakhir liburan bareng dan jauh itu juga year end trip 2012, di Bali. Dan selama 2013 kita ga berkesempatan liburan yang jauh bareng, karena pada akhir taun mama papa umroh dan saya sih di tahun 2013 lagi sibuk – sibuknya dalam zona sophomore!

Okay back to the story..
This trip was arranged in early October. so my family minus me, went to the shopping mall in Bandung where there was a holiday fair. So, my family chose the 6D 5N trip to Malaysia and Singapore.
Since this is my first overseas trip so I just hurried to get my first passport, and my passport story is on the previous post.

The trip began on Dec 27th 2014…

DAY-1
We got a morning flight with Garuda, approximately on 09:45. I don’t really remember. But since I lived in sidetown a.k.a Cikarang, Bekasi so we went to the airport in early morning. It’s about 3AM or 3.30AM WE WENT TO THE AIRPORT! Dad parked our car for the next 6 Days on SHIA. 
The weather that morning was gloomy with a little rain.
The flight went well, and  minutes after the take off was end, the weather just goin so nice! Yeay! For almost 2 hours flight, I didn’t sleep at all, tumben banget kan tukang pelor kaya saya. 
It was all because the on board entertainment from Garuda is good! The Meal on Board also good! Hehehe, but the dessert was fruits, I did expect for the cake, wkwkw dasar ya maruks!
We arrive on the KLIA around 12AM, or 1PM Malaysia Time. Okay I should admit that KLIA looks more modern and clean than SHIA. 
Maybe because of the bright colours like white and silver. When I was takin my baggage something bad happened just like my sister luggage tag—the Hello Kitty Luggage tag from the Alfamart, that is pretty cute—was gone! Somebody must be took it,  either in SHIA or KLIA after that we went to town, it took 1 hour to reach Kuala Lumpur Center Town. 
We got there by a bus. There’s  almost 5 family, it was about 25 people on board with one local guide named, Mr Alan. And guide from the travel Dwidaya Tour Ms Anita.

Yes i know it's so lame to take a travel tour packet from travel agent just to spend some nights in Malayysia and Spore, but since my family didnt have much time to prep some 
( or maybe A LOT ) things by our self for the trips, so the travel packet is best choice to make t more efficient, both money and time.

The trip to the KL from the airport went well, no traffic jam, maybe because the amount of cars is not that much if compared to Jakarta. I saw an ope container contains a lot of NEW Motorcycle, which is the model was so LAME and OLD. You know ASTREA atau bektu alias bebek tua :( In this part Indonesia is better! We got better motorcycle! YEAY!

First stop is chinesse halal restaurant. Mr Alan told us that in Malaysia, Melayu Restaurant rarely want to accept a group tour like us to have a lunch, so most of restaurant that will accept a group tour is Chinesse Restaurant, but this is Chinesse Restaurant is HALAL so no doubt!

I bet the owner was moeslem, because there’s a Calligraph of ALLAH SWT and Nabi Muhammad SAW. The food was extremely a lot! So the 25 people on the group divided for 4 table. In every table was served a lot of chinesse food that FITS my tongue WELL! Ehhehhee.

After having lunch I just realized that workers mostly Indonesia Woman I just fel bad for them :( Kasian mereka di Malaysia, I pray for them for having a blissful and joy in Malaysia! Aamiin ya rabb.

After we had lunch we went to Genting. Resort World Genting Highlands. 
This Resort World Developer is same with the Resort World in Sentosa Islands Spore!
The bus stops on 1000m height from the sea level. We continued our journey with a cable car! OMAIGAAT maaak mau pulang aja daripada naik beginian :"(

bisa diliat kan sampe ujung yang berkabut disaa dan itu masih jauuuhhh.
Pic taken by my Dad on the way back.

To ride this cable car we couldn’t bring all of our luggages. 
So we deposit our luggages in the first terminal before taka a ride with te cable car. 
Each of us took a backpack. Mom took a small luggage for hers, dad’s, and my lil sister clothes for the next morning. BECAUSE we only spend a night in Genting.
OH MY GODNESS! Cable car nya tinggi banget! Lebih tinggi daripada Gondola di Ancol! 
And under the cable car was A FOREST! NO IT WAS A JUNGLE. Sumatera’s jungle! 
Karena emang totally hutan antah berantah yang katanya sih masih ada gajah harimau dan lain-lain masih ada jurang tjoyyy! The ride took 15mins approximately. But it felt like years to me! Sumpah lemes di dalemnya. Dan cable carnya sendiri ngga datar kaya biasanya, tapi nanjaaaaaak teruss dan beberapa kali turunan panjang, tapi kebanyakan nanjak. Karena dari titik keberangkatan kita akan naik 1000 meter lagi ke hotel di bukti seberang sana.
Sampai di pemberentian terakhir sujud sukuuuuuur banget! Oh ya kita juga sempet nebus foto yang difotoin pas di awal keberangkatan! And it was so expansive!!!!! For one frame photo it was almost cost 250rb or 350rb lupa deh.
Begitu sampe di spot terakhir gedung kita lansung jalan menuju lobby hotel 

First World Hotel di lantai berapa gitu soalnya pusing cyiin kan itu ada beberapa tower yang menyatu, terus ada shopping places nya ada mini indoor theme park gitu. Mall nyatu dengan hotel, dan total kamar hotelnya 1000 lebih tjoy!
But unlucky us the outdoor themepark was on under reconstruction. 
My rooms was a really small room with twin bed.

The review of my hotel room in FIRST WORLD HOTEL
The twin bed is comfy enough, eventhough THERE’S NO SPACE between the beds! Nyatu aja udah kaya queen size bed lah.
-      NO SHOWER KIT! Buy your own yaa. Gada sikat gigi gratis kaya biasanya meskipun ini hotel bintang 5. Tapi kayanya ini kelas yang murahnya :( dianta 1000 sekian kamar.
-      No AC. But the weather is extremely colds so it’s okay we wont need one!
-      Hairdryer! Too bad I don’t remember there’s a hairdryer or not. But thanks god there’s still water heater! And choices of coffee or tea.

After taking a shower and relaxing for a while, secara dari jam 3 pagi gitu kaan udah siap sedia mau jalan jalan kita caws! Makan malem di buffet restaurant hotel. 
The food was so good! Mehehe secara buffet dinner! Menunya variatif banget dan enak. Hihihihi…
Mamah Papap were enjoying the fruits as dessert

Abis itu kita window shopping di shopping groundnya, udah terus liat – liat gitu deh ada atraksi bule bikin figures dari balon. Tapi aslinya I WAS SO PARANOID! The tour guide says that di genting banyak penghipnotis so you better walk in group, at least 3 person.
Terus kan disana ada banyak bule yang lagi teller gitu kayanya abis mabok, soalnya jalannya oleng dan sendirian matanya merah. My eyes on him! Ngawasin abnet takut tetiba ngamuk di keramaian. Sisi Malaysia di genting bener bener beda, banyak bule dan aga sedikit bebas mungkin karena ada Casino.
Ohya kalau mau masuk casino bring your passport and ID card, and you should be 21yrs old or older. NO CAMERA! Everythings in casino is secret! A gue sih cuman foto di depannya aja!
Oh ya harga untuk barang-barang di genting is way more expansive than in KL. Tokonya bervariasi mulai dari outlet adidas, nike sampe butik mini gitu. 
Klo yang kayanya bener-bener shopping till I die di genting itu biasanya orang-orang Arab gitu they could bring at least 3 boxes of nike per person.
We end up our window shopping by watching the dance show, and end up hit the bed around 9PM.

Eh iya sebelum tidur gue nonton dulu deng siaran Malaysia gitu. And I just realized something…
so lemme ask you (ask who? Ada yang baca emangnya?)
How do you say amount?
Yes like that Malaysian say so, but they write it in Malaysian language as amon amon or amoun amoun. So they prounounce it like English but write it in Malaysian…
Goodbye! Gonna tell ya later bout the next days! I’m not good at rememorizing hihihi!

Air kiss,

PASSPORT ONLINE DI KANIM KELAS 1 BANDUNG



Assalamualaikum,

Hai mau share tentang pembuatan passport online apalagi gara –gara waktu kuliah padat jadi harus  bisa ngatur waktu pinter –pinter.
Sebelumnya udah baca – baca testimony mengenai pembuatan passport online.  Terlebih saya kan kuliah di Bandung smeentara KTP berdomisili di Bekasi jadi aga aga was –was kalau tiba – tiba permohanan saya ditolak ketika ke kanim nantiapalagi udah bayar.
Tapi ya bismillah aja berbekal hasil googling blog sana sini, hehe dan akhirnya passport pun berhasil  dibuat dengan cepat dan mudah! Yeay!!!
So this is the steps based on my experience….

6 oktober saya register online di web imigrasi. Register berhasil, meski ya aga ribet juga karena pas terakhir ke interrupt sama koneksi internet yang tiba – tiba mati.
Ada beberapa poin penting pada saat register,pertama panduan membuat passport online nya tidak lagi sama dengan kenyataan. Jadi saya juga mengikuti cara diblog lain.
PENGISIAN DATA ONLINE  (6 OKTOBER 2014)
Isi data seperti
1.       Buka link web imigrasi disini, kemudian pilih PRA PERMOHONAN PERSONAL
2.       Pilih jenis permohonan, saya pilih passport biasa 48 halaman karena umumnya 24 halaman itu untuk para TKI, tapi sebenernya sih saya googling mengenai passport 24 halaman itu sah sah saja dan boleh untuk masyarakat umum yang memakai passportnya hanya untuk sekedar main. Antara 48 halaman dan 24 halaman yang ngebedainnya tuh HARGA.
3.        Pilih lokasi kantor imigrasi, dalam kasus saya, saya pilih KANTOR IMIGRASI KELAS 1 BANDUNG. (udah browsing juga kalau pelayanan di KANIM KELAS 1 Bandung itu bagus cepat dan mudah)
4.       Isi data sesuai KTP (NAMA, NO KTP , ALAMAT dan lain-lain) Harus BENER-BENER SAMA SEPERTI DI KTP yaaa, jangan sampai salah apalagi typo hehe. Oh ya dalam pengisian email emailnya harus yang aktif yaa.
5.       Kemudian klik lanjut. Nanti webnya bilang kalau registasi berhasil.
6.       Buka email, kemudian tunggu ada email dari SPRI.
7.       Di emailnya ada 1 attachment isinya SURAT  PENGANTAR KE BANK dengan format PDF. Selain attachment surat itu ada juga link lanjutan.
8.       Saya pergi ke Bank BNI untuk bayaer biaya pembuatan passport sebesar Rp 355.000 ditambah 5000 biaya administrasi BANK BNI.
9.       Selesai membayar saya buka kembali email dari SPRI (Masih email yang sama) kemudian muncul pernyataan di web tersebut kalau saya telah membayar biaya pembuatan passport.
10.   Pilih tanggal kedatangan ke KANIM. Usahakan jangan hari jum’at yak arena waktunya yang lebih pendek.

BERKAS YANG HARUS DIBAWA,  perhatikan baik – baik ya di bawa buka di scan atau di upload karena sistemnya sudah lebih praaktis jadi ga perlu upload-upload lagi.
1.       FC KTP ( dibiarkan di A4, jangan dipotong kecil ya)
2.       FC AKTE LAHIR / IJAZAH
3.       FC KARTU KELUARGA
4.       Surat pengantar pembayaran ke BANK ( surat ini tuh yang terlampir di email dr SPRI ya)
5.       Surat Permohonan (Surat permohonan yang didapat setelah pembayaran dan memilih jadwal kedatangan)
6.       Bukti pembayaran dari BANK.
7.       Matere 6000

CATATAN SEMUA BERKAS SELAIN FOTOKOPI JUGA PERLU MEMBAWA YANG ASELI YA…
HARI KEDATANGAN DI KANIM
Saya memilih membuat passport di KANIM KELAS 1 BANDUNG, dimana kanim tersebut emang sudah terkenal pelayanannya bagus, meski masih bisa ditemui calo – calo. Hati – hati yaa…
Saya pergi dari kosan di daerah Sarijadi pukul 5:45 sampai di KANIM (Jl. Surapati no 22) kurang lebih oukul 6:05. Disana ada dua antian, antrian manual dan online, antrian online jauh lebih sedikit.
Kurang lebih pukul 6:30 pintu KANIM dibuka,  UNTUK PENDAFTAR ONLINE langsung masuk kedalam dan menemui bapak satpam dengan mesin nomer antrian otomatis, kemudian surat permohonan saya di scan barcodenya, dan mendapatkan nomer antrian. Saya juga di beri Map Kuning, yang depannya ad kop KANIM Bandungnya.
Isi dari map kuning itu formulir data diri sendiri, yang harus ditanda tangani diatas materai 6000.
Pukul 7.30 pemanggilan nomer antrian dimulai, saya waktu itu dapet nomer 6, dan ga berapa lama saya di panggil. Kemudian si bapak di meja interview itu memeriksa data – data saya dan memverifikasinya dengan lampiran lembar fotokopi2 yang sudah saya sebutkan. Kemudian saya ditaanya mau kemana, di meja yang sama saya kemudian di foto dan melakukan sidik jari.
Catatan untuk difoto: Dahi harus terlihat, jadi untuk yang memakai jilbab usahakan dahinya cukup terlihat.
Kemudian saya menunggu untuk mendapatkan surat untuk pengambilan passport.
Passport diambil tiga hari kerja.

Saat mengambill passport usahakan surat pengantar pembayaran di bank ada, karena nanti antriannya juga di barcode kembali.

Hasilnya pukul 08:30 saya sudah di kosan kembali hihihi.




 XOXO,

BOOK REVIEW : The Journeys 3






A Very Huge HELLO!
Assalamualaikum everyone 

Today,  I wanna share some thoughts of mine.
It’s about Journey.

Entah sejak kapan aku mulai suka baca buku non fiksi, mungkin sejak baca Omiyage, buku tentang bagaimana seorang mahasiswa menjalankan kehidupan di Jepang, dengan beasiswa bergengsi. That book’s really really interesting, and  because I enjoy that book a lot, so I tried to read another book about peoples journey or biography.

Well, I just finish read The Journeys 3 book. It’s a book about unique, great and absolutely awesome journeys of people. The Journeys 3 contains stories about travelling to find where or the feeling of being home.


The first story come from Husni Mubarak Zainal, a doctor that work in Black Land—Africa. Saat awal baca cerita ini I was wondering What He’s gonna tell, since He was in Zambia. But, my Jaw drops! Oh My God! Subhanallah, is that true?! He tells his experience, the extreme travelling in Zambia. He’s rafting in Zambezi river, which is known has the best rapids and also its crocodile! Dan melewati sebuah  air terjun terbesar di dunia, Victoria Falls! Kemudian ia juga bercerita tentang pengalamannya menaiki microlight, microlight itu kaya apa ya? Hmm pesawat terbuka, dengan 3 roda dan sebuah baling2 di belakangnya. Dan, microlight lah yang juga membawanya melihat Devils Pools! Kolam yang terletak diujung atas Air terjun tadi.
Singkat cerita, cerita pertama dari dokter Husni atau yang terkenal dengan username @justhityou di media social, ia telah berhasil. Iya, Berhasil, berhasil mengubah pandanganku tentang sebuah perjalanan. Kalau biasanya kita dengan mudah menyebut Tokyo, Seoul, Paris dan kota-kota metropolitan lainnya, kini ia berhasil membuatku mengubah perspektif akan sebuah kata keindahan. Keindahan bisa ditemukan di tempat yang mungkin tak pernah terpikirkan sebelumnya, di Zambia tetangga Zimbabwe. Sebuah Negara yang serinng kali dijadikan bahan ledekan. I’m sorry but it’s the truth.

Second story, it comes from the amazing couple. Dina and her husband are having a well living life, but then they decided to become a nomad. They began their journeys in New Zealand, They tell us about Their’s nomadic living in New Zealand, how they survive to live in a campervan. I really enjoy their story while I imagine how could it be, or what im gonna do if I was her. Oh ya itu adalah perjalanan mereka di tahun 2010, kemudian akhir cerita di tahun 2012, dimana mereka sedang di Thailand, dan mereka masih menjadi seorang nomaden sampai sekarang. Just meet them in @DuaRansel Oh ya Mba Dina ini ketemu sama suaminya di Jepang waktu dia dapet beasiswa disana, ya ampun mengingatkan betapa besar keinginan gue untuk tinggal di Jepang.

Next jump to the fourth story. The story about the boy who wanted to rememorize his dad memories in Japan! Jadi dia berkesempatan untuk mengunjungi Jepang dan mengunjungi tempat-tempat yang ayahnya kunjungi. Tentang sushi terenak sedunia--but still i'm not into raw meat person. kenapa ada beberapa kemiripan antara kisah ke empat sama kisahku sendiri. I adore Japan, and so does my father. Kebawa sedih aja sama ceritanya, aku sih berharap kalau suatu saat ke Jepang nanti papah masih sehat dan bisa liat gue juga ikutin dia ke jepang.

Kemudian kita langsung terbang ke sepuluh ya, judulnya Berhenti Sejenak. Berhenti sejenak, dari apa? Dari apapun kalau aku tangkep sih memang terkadang kita perlu berhenti sejenak jika sedang melakukan apapun, apapun benear-benar apapun. Karena berhenti sejenak dapat merecharge tenagamu, pikiranmu, untuk meraih tujuanmu. Disini, Mba Hanny Kusumawati bercerita tentang apa yang ia alamai dan ia dapati saat berhenti sejanak di sebuah pulau bernama Santorini. Kalau ga salah kota di film Mamma Mia bukan sih ? Gimana ia bisa ketemu dengan seorang nenek yang langsung menjudge dia seorang wanita baik, hanya gara-gara dia memutuskan untuk berhenti sejenak di toko mungil milik si nenek. Juga saat ia bertemu dengan Adriano, Alex, tokobuku mungil.

Oh iya, cerita Slow Travelling dari Mas Ve Handojo juga menarik sepenuhnya minat gue, membuat gue berdoa semoga suatu saat gue udah mapan, makmur, kaya raya tapi gak sombong gue bias nyobain slow travelling di Sidney, hanya untuk sekedar mencicipi kopi di kedai kedai local. Sidney, menurut cerita di buku ini sih Sidney ga sepopuler dan secrowded Melbourne, but Sidney also has its own uniqueness.
Buku The Journeys selalu berhasil membuat gue untuk bersemangat menghadapi birokrasi menyebalkan yang ada di Indonesia, untuk dapetin passport. Supaya gue juga bias ngerasain,  how does it feels to stop for a while in somewhere,
Masih banyak cerita cerita lagi di dalam the journeys, kapan-kapan aku ceritain yaa. 

 Anyway in recent days I become one of active followers of Humans of New York. An Instagram acc which contains pictures of New York People with their own stories. Interesting. Bener-bener menarik, kita bisa lihat berbagai jenis ras manusia dapat ditemukan di akun IG itu, juga bagian microfashion, maksudnya fashion yang unik di anak-anak—so, EXTREMELY CUTE! I learned a lot of things from their stories.






it's beautiful when we can enjoy the journey itself than just hurry to get the destination.


"If you want to go fast run alone. If you want to far, run together"





XOXO,

Ternyata power ranger

ALLÔ

Iseng tiba tiba kepikiran sama hal well you may say stupid!
Gue baru sadar sekarang betapa gue udah kena stadium lanjut virus kdrama! K pop juga sih dikiiit. Tapi k reality juga deng, Runningman!

Gue mikir, flashback sih nyari di file tahun berapakah diri gue suka korea? Ternyata kelas 5 SD gue suka banget drama full house. Terus gue gapernah lg deh suka sama drama korea.
And it began when i were in junior high! Tau kan betapa Boys Before Flowers ngetopnya waktu itu. Temen - temen sekelas pada geger tapi gue dulu belum begitu suka.
Singkat cerita, sahabat gue Mima yg maniak korea hobi banget nonton  drama korea sampai suatu ketika gue dengan segenap jiwa gue ngerasa berkeharusan ngasi tau mima maka gue nelfon mima siang siang bolong.
"MIMAA tuh ada film korea di antv" (klo gasalah sih antv)
"Ah masa? " kemudian mima ngecek tv di rumahhnya
Hening kemudian.
"MUTH itu nah Power Rangers!!!"
"Oh ya huahaha abis mukanua korea korea mim dan lagi gapake topeng!"

Tolol banget ya si guw yang sok tahu ini. Tapi gue gapernah lupaaaaaaa
