As you can see from my older posts in this blog, I like travel for sure. I like to travel no matter who my traveling partners are. They can be either my friends or strangers I've just met. :) I did my first traveling just by myself in 2011. Three months after I got a job. A month after I had my graduation ceremony. By traveling just by myself means I planned and executed it without any helping from travel agent. But before my first traveling last year, I've traveled (with my relatives before) to Gunung Bromo, Pare (Kediri), Biak (Papua), and Spore. In the beginning of November, one of my closest friends asked me to join her short trip to Bandung. She simply asked me because she had a hotel voucher we could use. Well, what a chance! I personally needed a little sweet escape to refresh mind a bit. I said yes. So, Bandung we went. It was actually my first time to travel with my closest friends. We've never had a chance to travel together since we're so busy with o...

Been reading my 2012 resolutions post, and ended up......rewriting what I hadn't been achieved last year. Hehe.. Honestly, I could only do half of my resolutions list. Well, actually there were only few lists I could've done and achieved. But never mind. I'm kinda proud of myself for being able to achieved them through hard work, patience, and persistent. Not to mention about passing ups and downs so many times. :p 2012 has been the toughest year ever in my life. I’ve faced hard times, dealt with friend, family and work problems, and learned how to let go. Not to make it more dramatic that we’re safe from Mayan's the end of the world due date. Hihi.. Life is interesting, though. When I feel sad first, I feel happy in the end. When there is laugh, there is cry. Everything seems like in balance. Even if I say last year I faced so many problems. In the end, I got a fun relaxing (and should I say quiet mystical) holiday. Lesson I learned from 2012: just have a fai...

I’ve been spending my Christmas and New Year’s holiday in my Grandma’s house in Bandung. The plan was simple; to spend more time with grandma in peace. In fact, I spontaneously got away several days to Cirebon and Lembang. I’m sorry grandma for…for leaving you a bit. Oopsiie. :p I gotta say that this first trip at the beginning of 2013 was quite mystical yet surprisingly fun and unpredictable. Mystical? Yes, for having a pilgrimage to Sunan Gunung Jati Sanctuary. Well, I was just following my cousin back then. Later I knew the place was so popular and many people came there just to see and pray. Surprisingly fun? Sure, for having culinary sessions. Finally I could eat the well-known Empal Gentong, Nasi Jamblang, and Nasi Lengi (?). They were typical food from Cirebon. Unpredictable? Of course, for spontaneously going to Lembang and Tangkuban Perahu the day after I got back to my grandma’s house from Cirebon. Mwihi! This trip should open my mind a bit about exploring every ...

At this kind of age, getting a bunch of wedding invitation is irresistible. Unless your heart and emotion are in stable condition, you’ll get easily attacked by ‘galauness’. Haha.. Yes, I’m speaking for myself actually. :p I have been attending many weddings. Some are my relatives. Some are my friends. I have been in charge for being a bridesmaid, too. These experiences have made me aware of how complicated a marriage is. You know, you are not only uniting two hearts but also merging two families. And for me, that’s quite a challenge. I think love and be loved only is not enough to be in the marriage life. There are some values need to be considered, such as trust, responsibility, keeping words, caring, understanding, and respect. As for me, it will be difficult to make a marriage work without having those values. :)   Well, I still salute them who are able to step into a marriage life. They who are at or even younger my age are married. And I can see their happy f...
