Rough Guide to Bali

Penjor "Hey I am coming to Bali, can you recommend me things to do?" I got that question a lot. I get it, I live in Bali so people would think that I master everything about Bali. Well... 50:50. I happened to travel around Bali since 2017. So it wasn't wrong to assume me knowing Bali. But I am also a lazy traveler so I don't always do many things in one place.  That is why we will call this a rough guide to Bali.  First thing first, define your style of traveling. Because we all know that Bali is an island. Not a city. So it is quite big, you know. You can not explore all of it in two weeks. Well you might be able to do so, but probably not immersing enough of it.  So... what is your style of traveling? Bali offers you some cultures, quiet normal life, party hotspots, quiet beaches, busy beaches, temples, and so on.  Mt Batur West part of Bali (Canggu, Seminyak, Kuta) If you enjoy partying, you might want to spend your time more in the west part of Bali like Canggu, ...

Time runs so fast

Tomorrow is 2016. Time runs so fast. I still remember the first day on 2015, I felt that “Okay.. it gonna be next 12 months”. But time runs so fast. So fast. I felt it’s still January, but yesterday I realize that it is December already. Oh well..
 
What had happened in 2015?

As a life, there are always 2 opposite things. Like happiness and sadness. Like black and white. Like up and down. I felt it much. I remember when I went to Jakarta 2 times in a month. I moved to a new place, a place that wouldn’t be my choice but now I am used to it *unless, someone who always ask me to resign and move back to my lovely place*. First half of year 2015 was great. And next half of year 2015, problems comes one by one. No use to write the problems but yeah problem just a problem. Also I have to wait more… ok.. no problem *it used to be a problem, but now*. I did cried a lot and more often than usual. Just to release the burdens.

My mind couldn’t remember all of things that had happened in 2015.

Wishes for 2016?

Well.. everyone wants to be better day by day. It’s not about the year, just everyone have to be better day by day. And have benefits for others. Me and my beloved people stay healthy, safe and most of all we should be thankful for everything that we have.

For a moment, I lose all my cheerful, lose hope, being pessimistic, didn’t trust anyone, lose everything. I didn’t consider myself as the most person that suffers from all difficult problems, no. just… weary. All those problems happen almost in same time. I even couldn’t believe that it happen to myself. Not about this problem could happen to me, no, but about losing all of my optimist character, cheerful, trust. For a moment, yes.

All that I need is time. Because it will be healed by the time. It could be so hurting now, but I am sure it will be healed soon. Usually I don’t need much time to be healed, but for now I need much more time to be healed. 

Karena memang sesungguhnya Allah tidak akan memberikan cobaan diluar batas kemampuan manusia.

Well.. it is life. It won’t stop until it is asked to.

Thank you and sorry for everyone, for every moments, for everything in whole 2015.

Let’s be positive and optimist in 2016!!

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

Jangan minta oleh-oleh!

    Taken from internet Pernah nggak kalau kita mau bepergian, trus orang-orang pada bilang 'Jangan lupa oleh-olehnya ya' ? Pasti pernah dong ya... Yang jelas saya nggak pernah ngerti kenapa orang sering meminta sesuatu ketika kita pergi somewhere. Dulu waktu kecil juga saya suka bilang begitu. Siapa yang pergi kemana pasti deh 'jangan lupa oleh-olehnya ya om, tante pakdhe, budhe, mas, mbak'. Tapi lama kelamaan saya mikir 'saya cuman ngomong aja tanpa niat minta oleh-oleh', kecuali kalo memang kita menitipkan hal itu karena memang hanya ada ditempat yang akan dikunjungi orang tersebut, misal buku. Pernah nitip beliin buku di Korea karena emang adanya disana. Jadi esensinya oleh-oleh itu apa? Saya juga kurang tau soalnya udah nggak pernah lagi minta dibawain oleh-oleh. HJ pulang ke Belanda sana saya cuma minta beliin buku. Itupun nggak dibeliin gara-gara bukunya nggak bagus kata dia. Oleh-oleh pun ada yang sekedar apa adanya karena emang adanya begitu...

Meneropong Bulan di Mleiha

Foto diambil dan diedit di hp gw sendiri. Mleiha - 2020 Sepertinya gw memang ditakdirkan untuk mencintai science . Gw ingat sekali, buku yang bikin gw jatuh cinta kepada alam semesta dan ilmu-ilmu yang tersimpan di dalamnya adalah buku Ensiklopedia yang dibawa papa gw dari perpustakaan sekolahnya. Nggak dibalikin pula. Dosa nggak ya gw? 😬 Di buku itu, ada beberapa bagian. Berupa sejarah, astronomi, dan budaya. Gw terpana dengan kesemuanya. Ada banyak gambar-gambar benda-benda langit. Gw susah banget soal hafalan yang dipaksa, tapi gw bisa inget urutan planet-planet bahkan saat kelas 2 SD. 2 SD dulu kayaknya belom belajar planet-planet ya? Benda-benda antariksa itu nggak pernah gagal bikin gw melongo gila. Setelah melongo, hati gw rasanya penuh dengan kekaguman dan itu biasanya bertahan selama berminggu-minggu. Gw juga selalu bermimpi buat beli teleskop. Dari SD gw kumpulin segala macem artikel tentang astronomi, berlanjut hingga SMA dan gw deketin semua temen gw, kakak kelas gw yang i...
