Walaupun kedinginan tapi gue merasa excited banget karena belum pernah ngerasain cuaca dingin kayak begini. Jam 10 pagi kita berangkat dari South Yarra. Oh ya, di area CBD ada yang namanya Free Tram Zone. Yes, FREE. Gratis selama kita berangkat dari area yang Free Tram Zone juga. In my case,...

[Melbourne Travel Diary] - The Big M: Itinerary Melbourne 8 Days 7 Night

Image
Hi, peeps! I’m finally back to write on this space. This time I would like to tell you a story from my very recent trip: Melbourne - Australia! Never thought that I was actually be able to visit the most-liveable city in the world.  Berawal dari November 2018, waktu itu lagi ada Garuda Online Travel Fair. Kebetulan juga temen SMA gue yang sudah lama tinggal dan juga kerja di sana sempet nawarin buat tinggal di apartemennya dia kalau misalkan gue mau ke Phillip Island untuk nonton MotoGP. Sometimes God works in a very mysterious way, no? Awalnya tuh pengen ke Aussie cuma buat nonton MotoGP aja, eh ternyata yang nonton MotoGP-nya belum kesampean malah dikasih rezeki jadinya bisa seminggu full liburan ke Melbourne :") Nah, berhubung belakangan ini gue tuh lagi impulsif banget kalau soal traveling dan jalan-jalan, langsung cabutlah kita beli tiket pesawat di akhir November 2018 untuk flight bulan Mei 2019. Bersyukur bisa dapet harga di 6 juta untuk PP Jakarta-Melbourne naik G...

[Bali Travel Diary] - First Time in 24 Years

Image
I finally got the mood to write on this space phew. So without further ado, here we go: gue abis dari Bali loh! Sumpah ya akhirnya bisa ke Bali juga setelah 24 tahun :') Dengan habit gue belakangan ini yang sungguh-sungguh impulsif, akhirnya sebulan sebelum berangkat, tiket-tiket segala macemnya baru dibeli. Sometimes I asked myself: "Who hurt you sih Ni? Being very very impulsive lately." LOL. Yah engga tau aja sih... belakangan suka ngerasa hampa. Semacam gak punya tujuan hidup. I'm still searching my life's purpose tho... Quarter life crisis is REAL. Traveling selalu menjadi semacam pelarian dan obat yang manjur dari segala macam kegalauan gue. Om Swastiastu So... ini dia tempat-tempat yang gue kunjungi selama 4 hari 3 malam di Bali:

[Lombok Travel Diary] - A Glimpse of Paradise

Image
Heyho, peeps. It's been a while since my last post. Pardon me for not writing in this space since like 3 months ago. I have tried to be more focused in blogging, but in reality... it's kinda hard to balance between work and blogging LOL. I wanna tell you about my first experience traveling to Lombok. Big thanks to the office who provided us such an exciting trip. Gonna bomb you with TONS of photos here xD So, here we go, then? First stop. Sasak Ende Traditional Village. Seems that this village is a must visit place when you were in Lombok. This village will show you the traditional houses of Sasak tribe. The Sasak people make up most of Lombok’s population. A few villages in this area do not want to modernize along with the rest of the island. These villages are characterised by their lack of modern technology. Their lifestyle is based on farming and weaving. Largely left alone for some time, these pockets of traditional island life are, however, witnessing increasing ...

Museum Nasional Indonesia : An Educational Day Out

Image
"Real museums are place where time transformed into space." - Orhan Parmuk It's summer time and everyone seems to be out-of-town due to Eid (Lebaran) holiday. So I think it was the best time to explore my own hometown: Jakarta. Me and my friend decided to take an educational day out by visiting National Museum Indonesia or popularly known as Museum Gajah (Elephant Building). For a person who always has a "thing" for history like me, I was very excited. We went there using free city tour bus that has been provided by Jakarta's government (big thanks to Pak Ahok, former Jakarta Governor who started this cool idea). Started from Istiqlal Mosque, we rode this double-decker bus. We managed to seat on the top level of the bus. Due to Lebaran holiday, this bus was full-packed with family who brought along their children. So you know, it was kinda noisy with children's nagging, curiosity and most of all : CRYING hahaha. I think the city tour bus is a good th...

Semarang Travel Diary (Part 1) : Discover the Part of Yourself

Image
"Travel is discovering the part of yourself that you never knew existed before". Critical Eleven, Ika Natassa My trip this time was the memorable one. It was my first time traveling alone (practically not all alone sih), tapi sepanjang perjalanan PP Jakarta-Semarang, I was on my own. Now I proudly declared it as an achievement *smug face* Thanks to the introvert main trait, I am now dare to travel again ALL ALONE HAHA. It was somehow relaxing when you wandered alone, getting lost and learn more about yourself.  For a well-planned and organized person like me, this was the most spontaneous and unplanned trip. I bought the train ticket two weeks prior the date and even WITHOUT ITINERARY (which is definitely a big no for me xD). I was impulsively and quickly saying "YES" when my high-school friend asked me whether I want to visit her in Semarang or not xD I could say that this very trip is some kind of "vow". I said to myself months ago; that if I m...

MotoGP Sepang 2015 Live Race : A Dream Comes True!

Image
"It is the possibility of having dream comes true that makes life interesting." - Paulo Coelho It's official that MotoGP Sepang 2015 live race is off my bucket list! Thank God, I finally got the chance to see that sports live with my own eyes!!! Hal yang selalu gue impi-impikan dari sejak SD, akhirnya sekarang bisa terwujud. Terlebih lagi bisa ngeliat the living legend , Valentino Rossi, secara langsung dari jarak dekat (hanya dipisahkan oleh pagar pembatas) terus didadahin sama dia ituu... lovelove 46x deh! Orangnya bener-bener humble dan gak sombong :") Sekarang gue paham kalau semua mimpi pasti bisa terwujud kalau kita punya keinginan yang kuat untuk meraihnya :D Masalahnya cuma pada lo mau atau enggak sih berusaha untuk meraih mimpi-mimpi lo. Sebagai seseorang yang antusias dengan MotoGP sejak lama (dari sekitar masih umur 10 tahun) dan tiap minggu rajin banget mantengin TV nungguin race -nya, menonton balapan secara live tentu hal yang begitu dida...

Mukjizat itu Nyata

For the first time in my life ... ngebuka website kampus buat lihat nilai semester 3 itu.. jauhh lebih HOROR daripada nunggu pengumuman kelulusan SMA -____- Apalagi nilai-nilainya keluarnya gak langsung full gitu, tapi bergelombang. Bikin makin cenat-cenut aja kan nungguinnya... Tapi memang ya.. semuanya gak ada yang gak mungkin di bawah naungan dan bimbingan-Nya. Gue lulus SEMUA mata kuliah semester 3 :") PUJI TUHAN! CAN'T BE MORE GRATEFUL THAN THIS . Gue beneran shock, gak nyangka, mau nangis, waktu lihat nilai matkul yang satu ini : Sistem Informasi Akuntansi 1. Kebetulan gue dapet dosen yang "katanya" pelittt nilai dan perfeksionis... Sepanjang semester ini gue udah pasrah dan siap mental kalau memang ditakdirkan untuk gak lulus di matkul ini. Tapi Tuhan berkata lain, gue LULUSSSS :") Mukjizat itu nyata. Gue dan teman-teman yang lain lulus dengan nilai yang cukup memuaskan (dan JAUH DI ATAS EKSPEKTASI AWAL kita-kita yang tadinya berharap cuma dapet C). ...

Dull

Image
Bello~ It's me again. Yeah. It's been a thousand year since my last post. A lot of things happened in the past 5 months.... But still... My life is so dull. *sigh* Hidup gue masihhhh begini-begini aja lah. Ngebosenin. Hmm.. I do expect some changes in my life, but it hasn't changed much. Sebentar lagi gue akan genap berumur 20 tahun. Masih belum kerja, masih jadi beban orang tua, dan masih setia men-jomblo pastinya x)) Masih kurus dan mungil juga kok, gak gendut-gendut nih gue :( Cuma satu yang bisa bikin bokap bangga, yakni : good GPA. So far, 2 semester ini gue berhasil mempertahankannya di angka 4. Satu-satunya yang bikin bokap bangga. That's it. Dari segi pribadi, gue belum berubah banyak. Gue masih tetep jadi pribadi yang lumayan tertutup, pendiam sama orang kalau gak begitu dikenal, lebih suka menyendiri di tempat sepi dan masih gak pedean. Entahlah, kadang gue suka bertanya-tanya apa yang bikin gue tiba-tiba jadi orang yang super introvert kayak gini. Lack of su...

I'm Survived

Image
Guess what? I'm surviving "SEMESTER PADAT" lol. Pertama kalinya seumur hidup gue, nekat ikut semester padat alias semester pendek, di mana konteksnya gue gak ngulang mata kuliah, tapi justru mempercepat kelulusan. Iyalah, di SP ini gue ambil 9 SKS *nekat*. Dan dalam seminggu, 1 mata kuliah itu ada 2 kali pertemuan. Awalnya, berasa gak kuat, bayangin aja... seminggu 2 chapter dan itu artinya sebulan 8 chapter! (kecuali Pengantar Akuntansi 2 yang cuma 3 bab). Tapi... lupakan semester padat yang hina dina ini... (di mana gue dapet dosen yang gak bener semua ngajarnya, jadi intinya selama SP gue belajar sendiri!) KARENA HARI INI SEMESTER PADAT RESMI SELESAAAI! PUJI TUHAN HALLELUYA BISA DILALUI DENGAN BAIK B)) Semoga IP tetap stabil deh di SP *amin*. Terus... mumpung libur 4 hari sebelum mulai lagi semester 2... gue mulai memikirkan rencana hidup ke depannya berhubung usia gue makin mendekati kepala 2... *hey, it's rhyme! :)* Banyak banget rencana dan mimpi yang h...

Thanks you for supporting me and my blog! ~*~*~*~*~*~*~ This morning, I woke up late for about 10.00 a.m. On this summer holiday (can I call it 'summer' since Indonesia didn't have summer? LOL), I did nothing. Well, me and my dad doesn't have any plans to go for a vacation. So, I've just stayed at home. Watching TV, online, eating, sleeping, eating, sleeping. That's all I did during this holiday. It suppose make me gaining weight at least 48 kg (hope so). Anyone has tips in gaining weight? Please tell me! I'm too skinny XD.

New Divide

Image
New Divide By : Linkin Park OST Transformers 2 : Revenge of The Fallen I remembered black skies / the lightning all around me I remembered each flash / as time began to blur Like a startling sign / that fate had finally found me And your voice was all I heard That I get what I deserve So give me reason / to prove me wrong / to wash this memory clean Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes Give me reason / to fill this hole / connect the space between Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies Across this new divide There was nothing in sight / but memories left abandoned There was nowhere to hide / the ashes fell like snow And the ground caved in / between where we were standing And your voice was all I heard That I get what I deserve So give me reason / to prove me wrong / to wash this memory clean Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes Across this new divide In every loss / in every lie In every truth that you'd deny And each regret / an...

Gee~

Gosh, help me. I'm really really in boredom. I'm stuck at home. Sleeping is my regular activities. I feel like I don't know what to do. Any suggestions, please? Leave a comment on my tagboard! It will really made my day... Just now, I tried Mati Beku, an online game. It's quite awesome, I think. The game needs our creativity. So I try it! Now, I'm stuck at level 9! o.O And yah.. I don't know what to write here. *Brainstorming* I think I'm kinda bored with this blog thingy. So, again... the corny thing goes here... ~*~*~*~*~*~*~ First award , I got this from Manda (thanks, buddy!) Here they are : Be honest no matter what, then tag at least 5 friends.

Movies Time!

Image
Hi there. Back again. Today, I visited my bff's home, Ria. I went there with Maria. It was unplanned visit, actually. Haha. So, I took my phone and called my daddy to ask his permission. And my daddy permitted me to play in her house. Yeay! And what did we do in Ria's house? We watched 2 movies instead of making project! The first one is... Aquamarine (2006) Rate : 7/10 Review Two teenage best friends, Claire (Emma Roberts) and Hailey (Joanna "JoJo" Levesque) regret that they will be separated in five days, since Hailey has to move to Australia because of her mother's job. One night, after a violent storm they find a mermaid, named Aquamarine (Sara Paxton) in the swimming pool of their beach club. The girls are frightened at first, but then curious. They start to talk with Aquamarine and promise her they will be back in the morning. When they return, they find Aquamarine in the beach's snack shack, but with a human body instead of a mermaid's....
