Book: The Midnight Library

It is one of the books that blown my mind. It's very well written and would probably relate with a lot of people who are in their journey to find themselves.  So many people are talking about it but I did not buy it until a few months ago where I read the preview on the first pages. Easy for me to see if I want to buy the book or not. When the first pages hook me right away, I don't need to think twice. This book is one of them.  This contains spoiler of course.  Nora, the main character, like many of us, fall into depression and decided to kill herself. But she's not dead right away. She went into a kind of limbo between life and death. In that library she met a librarian, this librarian is a kind of a guide. Our guide that probably tasked when we were born.    The librarian shows her lives that she could have had if she wants to. She is so depressed and thinks that no life will makes her happy enough to live it. I can totally understand her state. I was there....

Ngopi favorit di Baker's King

Nah nah nah

Ketika masih stay di Malang, ada tempat favorit ngopi nih. Namanya Bakers King. Favoritnya disana tuh green tea latte-nya. Hmmm itu enak banget beneran deh. Donatnya juga enak bener. Eatable lahhh. Dan harganya gak semahal vendor kainnya. Dengan harga yg lumayan dibawah, tapi rasa yg ditawarkan *menurut saya sih* jauh lebih enak.

Kalau lagi bosen, atau ngerjain sesuatu, atau pengen sendirian, ya ngopi disana. Tempatnya enak juga. Memorable banget deh kalau kesana lagi. Sayangnya, di Surabaya belum nemuin Bakers King *atau emang cuman ada di Malang ya??*. Dan lagi tempat stay di Surabaya jauh dari mana mana hahaha. Jadinya males keluar kalo lagi gak pengen banget aja.

Kenapa gak ngopi di warkop aja??
Soalnya di warkop kebanyakan cowo kan yg ngopi *sebut saja bapak2*, belum lagi tempatnya rawan, trus biasanya kopinya juga kopi yg kita udah punya dirumah. Kalau di coffee shop kan yg bikin baristanya. Jadi kl ke coffee shop ya yang dibeli itu kopi yg gak ada dirumah. Kalau ada dirumah mah ngapain beli di coffee shop.

Tapi tetep sejauh ini tempat ngopi favorit tetep di Bakers King meskipun udah jajal beberapa vendor laennya ini. Dan pajangan donat di laci Bakers King itu selalu menggoda.

Bakers King di Malang ada di MX dan MOG. Belum pernah nemuin yg lainnya. kalau ada yg baca ini dan nemu Bakers King selain di Malang, terutama Surabaya, tolong kasih tau ya. kalau emang nggak ada selain di Malang, mbok ya tolong buka cabang di Surabaya gitu hehe

note : cuman catetan Baker's King fans aja lho

Pengalaman Bikin (Free) Schengen Visa di VFS Swiss

I know this is so normal but anyway I like to compare the experiences because people might have different cases and because I have nothing to lose so... here's my experience for applying Schengen Visa via Swiss (VFS). Kenapa nggak via Belanda? Karena rencana kita berkunjung lamanya ke Geneve - Swiss (ada urusan kerjaan suami gw) dan kami belum tau akan ke Belanda apa nggak saat itu (nggak jadi sih soalnya mepet banget).  Seperti yang sudah sering dibahas orang lain perihal syarat dan ketentuan apply Schengen visa, gw nggak akan nulis itu ya. Udah ada di website VFS, lengkap. Gw cuma tambahin dikit-dikit aja infonya yang mungkin sama seperti kasus yang baca kalo emang kebetulan sama sih 😂 "Ok jadi total pembayarannya 280 ribu rupiah ya" "HAH?? Cuma 200an mbak??? Visanya gratis???" "Suaminya masih WN Belanda kan mbak?" "Iya" "Oiya itu gratis, bisa pake visa tipe C. Jadi cuma bayar biaya admin aja" ...

Not A Robot

  There are so many things I did recently. It was all started since February. Not to complain about this, I just want to write it to release the stress. Because I know every choices has its own risks. Started from January, I commits to work on another blog of mine. Joining with another friend, we are committed to post at least one writing every week with different theme each week. This is still under construction *ahem, ini bukan bangunan* to make it good to read at. I will publish it here once it is ready to be published. We both are trying to be consistent. So far, I have been consistent and always post one every week. After decided to get married, I realize that it won't be that easy. No matter what, marrying someone never be easy. About the preparation and this and that. To be honest, I will not having a big feast for that. I will invite my close friends and family, although I still have to respect what my parents want to invite the neighbors (one block neighbors are tota...

[Book] Dunia Cecilia

'apakah kalian membicarakan hal semacam itu di surga?' 'tapi kami berusaha tidak membicarakannya dekat-dekat Tuhan. ia sangat sensitif terhadap kritik' Yap, sepenggal dialog antara Cecilia dan malaikat Ariel. Saya mengenal Jostein Gaarder sejak kuliah. Ehhhh 'mengenal' dalam artian kenal bukunya ya, kalo bisa kenal pribadi mah bisa seneng jingkrak-jingkrak hehehe. Jadi karena teman saya mendapat tugas kuliah membaca satu novel filsafat berjudul Dunia Sophie, saya jadi sedikit mengetahui si bapak Gaarder ini. Enak ya tugasnya anak sastra baca novel, tugas anak matematika ya baca sih, tapi pembuktian kalkulus -_- Dunia Cecilia ini buku pertama Jostein Gaarder yang saya baca, karena buku Dunia Shopie sangatlah berat berdasar review teman saya. Saya sih nggak perlu baca buku itu karena teman saya sudah benar-benar mahir bercerita. Jadilah saya sudah paham bener cerita Dunia Sophie tanpa membacanya. Novel ini atas rekomendasi teman saya, dia bilang kala...
