Question of Survival
As people always say life is hard. So what will u do in order to survive this unfair world. There are 2 choices to survive in this world, either run for your life or fight for your life. Next question is when u should run and when you should fight ? Honestly i don't really know the answer because these choices are somewhat simple but tricky. For example when u run for your life people will start to think that u can't stand on your own ground. But the next question is where to stand if there is not even a ground!!! HAH tricky isn't it ? However, when u fight too hard some people will call u stubborn. Sometimes i feel really confuse and i'm start asking myself with questions such as am i running to far?have i ever put a fight ? And the last important question is What is really important that worths fighting for in this life? Anyone can help me answer all these questions? If u are able to answer this question then u don't have to worry, the game is on for u and u'll manage well.

How Great is a Mother
Today is Mother's day and i want to write about how hard it is to be a mother.
My mom is a great mom, she wakes up at 5 am in the morning to clean whole house except my room, go to market, prepare breakfast and off to work. At4-5 pm she comes home from work and start to cook for dinner, after dinner she needs to wash all the dishes, taking care of all laundries at the end she climbs to bed at 9 pm. Everyday she will do the same things.
While for me, last few months i got 5 am-5pm shifts for a week and it felts like i was dying in the process. I was not a morning person at that time so it's very dreadful for me to wake up at 4 am in the morning then i never cook breakfast my breakfast was just stale bread with Nutella. In addition i don't need to clean my rooms. At 5 am i start and when i was working i felt like i'm a zombie because my mind and my spirit was not there. At 3/4pm i went home and i need to resist the temptation to sleep or else i can't sleep at night and it was just terrible since u feel sleepy and tired. At 5 pm i cook a super simple dinner or sometimes i dined out because i was too tired too cook.Lastly at 7 pm i HAVE TO climb up to my bed or else i'll get cranky. Those whole weeks it just so dreadful for me and i started to think how on earth my mother do those things . I even only did those routines for like a week and i didn't need to clean the house, do laundry, or cook a real dishes like my mom, but i still feel terribly exhausted after that weeks. I felt like i was a living dead at that moment.
What was funny bout this is i always complaining why my mom always feel exhausted but now i completely understand. I can't imagine that one day when i become a mother i'll tell my children that dinner would have to wait until tommorrow night just because i feel really sleepy and i need to go bed at 7 pm every evening hahahaha . That just absurd!!!
From that moment, I realize that for 22 years of my life she had sacrified more than enough. Living like her in those routines is terribly boring and exhausting but she still manage it until today . I am very grateful to her and i know that she is a great mother. Some mothers might not do something like my mother do ,but just believe me that every mother want the best for their children and they have their own way to give their best.
This is just a simple example of sacrifice that certain mother had made. Some mother would rather have her son or daughter resent her so that her son or daughter will not make a mistake that can ruin his or her life. Some mothers would rather leave their children because they think that they are children will be better off without them. You should watch Desperate Housewives to see that how far certain mother will go to protect their children. There is no one in this world truly loves u like your mother so loves her back like no one will love her except their children !
So readers if u ever think that your mother doesn't love u enough i give u a simple solution. U can try to follow her routines, try to play her role and u'll understand that she loves u more than enough.

Vampire Fiction Review
I feel terribly bored and i don't know what i want to write. Let just sing a song or should i tell u a story. I think it's better i tell u about few stories. Recently i read few novels about vampire fictions but not twilight saga. I really like Blue blood, Vampire academy, and True blood. These vampires novels are more appealing than twilight saga.
1. Vampire Academy
I like the part where Rose is asking the reader bout the differentiation of love letter and a dead threat. In the fifth novel the main protagonist has turned into a villain and force the heroine to join him. However the heroine decide not to join him instead she kill him because she knew that the guy that once she loved would rather die than became a villain. However she didn't drive the stake deep enough thus the villain teach her not too look back unless u really see that your enemy had died. Starting from that moment onwards the villain start to send her letters that mentioning how much he loves her and how long he waits to kill her. HAHAHAHA what an irony, i don't know the different either between a love letter and a dead threat.
Other part that I like about this novel is the shadowkiss concept and the relationship between the heroine and her friend Vasilisa Dragomir. In this story Vasilisa Dragomir who is the heroine best friend has an ability to heal people and resurrect people from death. However, in that process vasilisa will become mentally and physically weak. In the story, it is told that Vasilisa once brought the heroine back from death and therefore the heroine become her shadow kiss meaning that all shadow or mental weakness that results from Vasilisa healing ability will be shared together with the heroine. Thus in the books it is mentioned that Rose and Vasilisa is bounded in a way that rose can sense her friend emotion and rose is easily getting agitated because her aura is covered by shadow.
2. Blue blood
I like the story of the main heroine, Jack, Madeline, and Kingsley Martin
Madeline and Jack are vampires who are bounded together. They are soul mate, but turns out Jack fall for the main heroine and Madeline fall for Kingsley Martin. However Madeline decide to choose Jack because it' s her duty since in this story if she is bonded with jack she can restore her memory and get back her power to eleminate the villain. However, since jack didn't keep his promise to renew his bond with madeline, Madeline was upset because if she knows that jack will not keep his promise she will ran away with Kingsley. However, it's too late. Kingsley is trapped in hell and Madeline will never forgive Jack and the main heroine for what they did to her and Kingsley. I can't wait the story of Madeline and Jack Force but this is the best part that i really like about this novel. Turns out that Madeline might join the villain to get back to the heroine and Jack? In addition this vampire storys evolve from the moment Lucifer fell from heaven and from archaengel story thus it is quite interesting to learn bout types of angels.
3 True Blood
Eric Northman is the best part of this novel full stopHAHAHAHAHA
I really like the romance between Sookie and Eric. The main heroine fall for vampire Bill at first but it turns out that in the next few series Sookie likes Bill's boss better. In every series there will be a mystery that sookie need to solve and it is very interesting to find who the villain is in every series.

Analogy of house and life
Our lives is like a house, especially when u are comparing someone's life with your life. Have u ever heard the saying that the grass in our neighbour's yard is always greener than ours ? I start to realize that the grass in our neighbour's front yard might be greener, but is their bedroom, kitchen, and living rooms are better than ours? The answer is, you will never know until u step into their lives or their house. U see that your friends might be smarter, richer, prettier or more success than u but when u start to enter their life, u'll find other sides that will make u grateful with your current life. So whenever u see that your neighbour's grass is greener u can start to think that it's merely grass in their front yard, u might not like the skeleton that they hide in the closet.

8 professions to die for
What do u wanna be when u grow up? Our parents used to ask this to us and some of us said that i wanna be president, vet, doctor, actress, etc. Every profession has its downsides and upsides and as a children most of us only see the upsides. Now, when u have grown up and known the downsides of every profession u don't want to be anything but only a carefree child. HAHAHAHA what an irony. OK stops talking about irony, now I'll talk about the profession that i used to dream when I was a naive little girl
1. Diplomat / Ambassador
Being a diplomat will create an opportunity for u to travel around the world. You can see the seven wonders that people talk about ( eiffel, pisa, Machu Pichu, Grand Canyon etc) Won't it be fun?And what is more interesting about this career is you can meet famous people such as prince and princess and who knows that your feet get swept away by a prince from far2 away land.But let just refuse the proposal from a prince from a least developed country, because when u accept it u'll only become pauper not a princess. When your feet are swept away u are not a diplomat anymore but u are a princess. As a princess your job is only stand in front of the camera, look pretty, wave hand, act as an "ange"l( talking bout world peace ,eradicate poverty, ect). So the conclusion is being a diplomat is such a romantic career and a great start to become a princess. HAHAHAHAHA i used to dream bout this.
2. Journalist
I like to talk but sometimes not all people will hear what u are talking about so some of the times u can't really express your thought, ideas and even yourself, whereas if u are writing u can express everything in your mind without even thinking whether someone will read it or not. It looks cool when people start to talk about your ideas.
3. Paleontologist and Archaelog
I want to learn about fossils and artefact because of MUMMY and JURASSIC PARK MOVIES. It just so interesting if u are trying to fight a mummy or try to hide from a dinosaur. It's adventurous. I know it sounds really2 crazy but i always believe that dinosaur is still exist somewhere in this universe. They are not really extinct ( Too Much Jurassic Park). When u keep watching Jurassic Park, u'll start to wonder what happens if dinosaurs co exist with today's civilization.
4. Food Sociologist
Im a lousy and lame chef. I like to invent new recipe, cook, and bake however cooking is never my thing. What i like is, analysing the food itself like why we eat what we eat. I really like to know the impact of our food to many aspects of our lives. Because of this passion i create a post about the colonialism food. I really hope that this post can encourage me to do more research about this career. It might sounds silly but food can be used as tool, a tool that can be used to control, harm, nourish or even to help others. Ex : u can harm someone by serving them with contaminated food ? Oops it's only EXAMPLE hahahahahaha
5 Hospitality Consultant
As a hospitality students who is working in a hotel right now, I start to feel tired to clean other's mess so i feel that one day i wanna teach others and consult others about how to clean someone's mess. Not only teaching and consulting but i wanna share my experience about cleaning others' mess
6. Psychiatrist
I like to hear other people talk about their skeletons in the closet and i feel happy if can help them. Because when u help them u'll feel that u have touched other's life and made a difference in their life. I just feel i'll be so proud if i can do this. It just like u have performed magic like the fairy godmother do with Cinderella, but this fairy godmother doesn't have magic wands. i only have mouth and ears :)
7.Butler/ P.A
I know butler is a lame job for some people because your boss wishes is your commands. But i just feel that this is interesting because, again i will say that u can give certain touch and make a difference in someone's life. It is fun to be a butler i guess because u'll look like anne hathaway in Devil Wears Prada, u'll be running around try to fulfill each and every " wish". Being a PA is not easy as well because i have a job ad about requirements of being a PA and one of those are u need to have 50 wpm typing speed and this is not easy unless u are top scorer in TYPING MANIAC hahahaha
8. Domestic Engineer
I bet 90 % of woman who reads my blog will have to become domestic engineer when the time has come. It's not because u want to but u have to. Engineer in this context is not engineer in the sense of Engineer with a high pay and a genius brain, whereas it has no pay and u dont need to be genius to be a domestic engineer. Domestic in here refer to household. Once u get married and children are running around u'll become a domestic engineer AKA HOUSEWIFE. U start to cook,clean , and care for your husband and children. There is no pay but the reward is worthed thousand times than any pay because it comes in forms of love. Some people said that domestic engineer is actually the most noble job in this world and this job is extremely hard than any other jobs. In this jobs u need to implement multitasking skill, stress management skill, and every single skills u know. Sometimes u need to implement manipulating skill as well. Or should i say that this skills is the necessary skills that will ease your job ??? That's what i've seen in Desperate Housewives hahahaha
Honestly I will say 90 % of the woman is not only have to become this but they also wanted to do this when they were little girl. As a little girl u must had dreamed of a day when u becoming a bride and since u are a little girl u didn't see the downsides of this position. HAHAHAHA. Now u'll understand the irony that i've talked about.
I would like to ask a little bit help from my readers. Which profession suits me best ? Don't say number 8 because as i said i have to do it sometimes in my life. Your help will be so much appreciated!!!! Anyway this topic will be discussed again sometimes because i want to touch my readers life and made a difference by using my blog !!! i know it sounds silly but that's a "little girl" intends to do

Favorite foods
I have promised my readers that i'll put more posts about Indonesian culinary but I'm just so lazy to do the research. I'll still talk about food today but in different context. What is your favorite food???? Most people will say any kinds of food as long as it is sweet, spicy or.................. For me my favorite is a food that can bring back memory when i eat it. For example i like to eat beef goulash and frangipani tart because it'll will remind me of my time in Taylor's college when we have restaurant and kitchen class. Moreover i like to eat the food that can remind me of my childhood memory because it just bring me back to that time when i ate it last time. Sometimes i miss my mum home cooking as well. Tempe karamel is the best ha4 however i never miss her eggplant, snake bean, and corn combination stir fried. It just too boring even though that's my mum signature dish ha4.
I've never plan to cook my mum's home cooking because it is originally hers so when i cook it, the taste must be different and the art is not there anymore.Have u ever wonder why the taste of your mum' recipes is different when your mom is not around? The answer is because your mom is not there with u when u eat it. What's the point of your mother's home cooking if u can cook it by yourself ? For me certain food can become favorite food not just because of the taste of the food but it is more to who do you eat it with, when u eat it, where u eat it, the memory and the story of the food will make the food not only edible but also memorable and delicious. So u'll never forget the taste of the food.
Tips for those who wants to open a restaurant or bakery: Create food that is not only delicious but also memorable so that people will talk and never forget your restaurant.
Talking about food i would like share my " recipe " hahaha so called recipe because this recipe is just a mess. Honestly i dont have any measurement so u need to figure it out. This recipe doesn't have measurement because it is originally created by me who doesn't know how to create recipe ha4
" Cheat Cheese Cake"
Cream cheese
Oreo biscuit
Strawberry
Unsalted butter
1. Separate the filling of the oreo from the biscuit and set the filling aside. Mash the biscuit until u achieve the smooth crumbly texture
2. Mix the mashed biscuit with butter spread it at a container and chill it in the fridge.( Butter is only used so that the mashed biscuit can be integrated and achieve a smooth texture)
3. Meanwhile u can mix the cream of the oreo with your cream cheese until it is sweet enough
4. Coarsely chop the strawberry and mix it with the cream mixture
5. put the cream mixture on top of of the biscuit crust and chill it in the fridge until it sets and ready to be cut.
6. That's the recipe of my cheat cheesecake, looks like cheesecake , taste a bit like cheesecake but not as fluffy and smooth as the real cheesecake because i dont use any eggs or gelatine. But i promise this cheesecake is not that bad. Believe me, as long as u understand point number 2.
So give it a try!! U'll never know how it will taste unless u try to make it and maybe this can become your favorite food because u have certain memory in creating it ? Who knows ?

Colonialism Food
In this coming week i'll post something that talk about indonesian culinary. When u think of indonesian food, our food is actually never originated from indonesia but it is influenced by a lot of western ( mainly Dutch, French , and Portuguese) , chinese and indian, and Middle eastern culture.
Have u wondered that there are some foods that we eat in indonesia that actually comes from dutch colonialism?
1. Ceres ( Chocolate sprinkles )
ceres is not originated from Indonesia, but it is bring to Indonesia by the dutch and they called it hagelslag. Dutch used to eat it with bread and butter like we always do in Indonesia
2. Kroket( Croquette)
Made from mash potatoes filled with minced beef or ragout feeling, coated with bread crumb and then deep fried. Croquette is actually from French, however it is very famous in Netherlands that they even sell in McDonald there. Moreover the dutch invented name for the smaller size croquette which is called bitterballen.
3. Perkedel( Frikadel potato/ Potato patties)
Frikadel itself is actually dutch meat loaf or sometimes it can refer to a kind of deep fried meat patties, but i don't have any ideas why they start to make a vegetarian frikadel that we know as perkedel ? I'll find out sooner or later
4. Spekkoek ( Kue lapis/ Layer cake )
OMG i've never know it until today that this layer cake is actually from ducth colonialism. To know more about the cake u can go to foodngarden.com and go find the blog about spekkoek and u'll find interesting fact that lapis is actually not an indonesian language but it is dutch from laa pees = layer
From today research these are the food that i could find but i'll promise to do more research, so that we know what we are eating and where it's come from.

poverty that has positives sides
What does it feel to live in poverty? Worrying to much about money ? Where'll my money come from and how should i pay this and that. Sometimes we even want lots lots of things but we don't have any money to buy it. But have u ever wondered that living in a poverty is like living a challenging life that u never know what will happen next. So what are the positives sides of poverty?
1. Challenges
I think that poverty help us to get through our boring lives because when u are poor u'll have more challenges. ex: u need to work harder than others , u need to pay all your bills fulfill every needs and wants with a very minimum budget. I used to live a lavish life where i don't need to think about money but since i'm working and im a bit tight of budget life is more challenging for me.
It's pretty obvious when i go to grocery shopping i need to stop snacking all that delicious chocolate and change it to woolsworth brand of cookies and chocolate. Instead of eating cashew nuts i need to eat normal peanut because it's cheaper. Moreover when u are poor u'll bcome more eco friendly because ull' only buy fruits which are in seasons because it's CHEAPER. For entertaintment, I only watch movie, order Dominos, eat waffles, and meatballs on tuesday because it's cheaper. For clothing, sometimes when buying a dress i need to wait until my next pay slip coming.Sometimes, i go to FO to get a better deals, hunting on discount voucher and etc( collecting disc voucher is much more useful than collecting frivolous arts). Moreover i'm excited waiting for sale for 6-12 months to buy the dress or the jacket that i really want. It's actually a nice life and a challenging one to become poor once in a while. U know what i want to try ? I'm thinking that one day i'll be forced to become vegetarian because i can't afford meat protein ( other postives sides : u'll get healthier and slimmer and expensive dress will suit you better). Last but not least winter is coming and i'm afraid of cold and also afraid of my electricity bills because of my heater. So u see the challenge that i need to face to coexist with season.
2. Creative
Poverty will make people keep thinking how to find more money and certainly u'll get more creative and smarter in finding better value deal and to find extra income. Ex: street's so called musician ??? AKA PENGAMEN. Other example will be : touching up your resume and promote yourself in an interview in a creative way because u need a job badly ( that happens to me).
3. Comfort
Wonder how poverty can bring comfort? Simple example will be when u plan to go to picnic or bbq in certain park in jakarta u dont have to bring anything because there will be lots2 of people selling food, cold drinks, even hiring tikar for u to sit at there. U want a bbq u can just order sate chicken and sate whatever with a cheaper price and guaranteed that it will be nice. Wonder why there are lots of food sellers ? Because those sellers are poor so they need to make a living somehow. So have u seen how poverty brings comfort for certain people. More importantly if there are no poor people u won't have any maid in indonesia. U'll need to clean your BIG HOUSE ALONE.
Being poor once in a while will not make u suffer but being poor forever will make u suffer because u'll be the one who clean the big house. What i want to tell all the readers here is being poor is not that bad it just that how u see and handle it.

Never Push too Far
Have u pushed people too far? If there is any, who have u pushed? It is often in our lives that we become very demanding and expecting a lot from others without considering others feelings. Sometimes we push people too far until we never know where we have pushed them or will they push back ?
There are 2 ways where u can push people
First Way- Out of our lives
Mostly we expect a lot from people who are dearest to us without realizing that sometimes we have gone too far. At the end those people who love us dearly will never push back but we will push them out from our lives because they can't stand it anymore yet they don't want to hurt us and themselves.
Second Way- Back to U
Never push someone too far that they will push u back. These people are not compassionate towards others and if u push them too far they will push back. They won't keep quiet and they never hesitate to push back. When it comes back to u then only u will realize that u have gone too far but it is too late to pull back .
Different people have different limit that can be pushed. Some people is very sensitive that even when u nudge them they will feel u have pushed too far, while others are a bit tolerant and resistant. Understanding those who are around us is very important so that u know how far u can push them.
At the end of the day maybe we should ask ourselves why those people who we love choose to leave us and why others keep pushing us? Is it because we are the one who push them first at the very beginning?

Facebook and Twitter Users
Today I want to talk about type of people who use facebook and twitter and how they use it
Type 1 AKA LOSERS
- They like to use facebook shout out and twitter to post trashy statement about others or sometimes they use it to express their hatred and anger towards others. This kind of people are total LOSERS and FAILURES because they don't know how to deal with others directly yet they don't want to keep quiet.
Type2 Centre of Attention Wanna be
- This type of users always update their latest picture and whatever they are doing in their shout out and twitter. This type of people like to express whatever they are thinking and doing through their facebook and twitter. Sometimes I think that these people are lonely in the sense of nobody want to hear, see or even care about what they are doing therefore they use twitter and facebook so that EVERYBODY can see and hear them, but not necessarily CARE about what they are saying .
Type 3 Communication ONLY
This type of users only use facebook to communicate to friends, relatives, etc. They tend to reply message or comment, share pictures, and tag photos.
Type 4 STALKER
They use facebook and twitter to find gossips about others or to stalk other people. ( ex: stalking your ex, your dream guy or girl, your friend's friend, etc.) Stalker use facebook and twitter to gain informations. U know what is funny about type 2 and 4? Stalker always Hear and CARE about what's number 2 is saying. HA4 such an irony
So what type of users are u ???? Most importantly this post is created to help u to identify your friend through their twitter and facebook shout out !
note: this post is opened for argumentative comments or should I say I'm waiting for argumentative comments. So feel free to comment !!!
