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, ...

An Ipad



Some of my friends are big fans of Apple. Apple products, not Batu Apple or Malang Apple. They are admiring Apple that much. I don’t know why, yea I admit the products are good enough. Maybe I am just not a gadget freak like my friends. 

For them, they know the bad or good parts on gadget, but surprisingly my dear little sister admires Apple as well. She is only 8 years old, but she got indoctrinated by my other sister that the best gadget is Apple. Well actually she doesn’t matter what is the brand of gadget as long as she can play her games every time. But tablet pc is a something that she really want to have. Yes because the screen is bigger than phone of course. 

She was playing around with my boyfriend IPad. I can tell she wants it. She wants to have a tablet PC. Then my boyfriend, I don’t know where he got this idea but he said ‘if you can speak English with me fluently, I will get you an IPad’. She asked me what does it mean, and right after telling her the meaning, she was taking my tablet and learn English on Duolingo. A good thing to motivates her hahaha. 

But after awhile she said ‘mbak, can you just give me your tablet? So when I am able to speak English fluently, you can have the IPad, because I really want it now’. I said “No, get yours with hard work”. And yeah she is back to studying. She learn English and my boyfriend learn Indonesian a bit from teaching her. 

Kinda funny things they did at home last time. 

this is how the both exchange something. he learn Indonesian and my lil sister learn english. my sister like exchange something for Ipad.

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

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...

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...
