I'm still here
Wow.. it's been a while that I didn't really...posting... thought I lost my touch..well, I really never have one I think..anyway, yeah, im still here..

OkeLah, for the first in February, even it's a bit -not that bit,actually- late, let me say Happy Chinese New Year, Happy Valentine Day, and Happy Lantern Festival! This rabbit year hopefully will bring more luck and prosperity, in every aspect of our life!

Second thing is...I'm most likely getting used to enjoy this endless winter..geez...it's cold... One of my friend asked me if I want some Valentine gift what that would be, so I said 'wishing that the winter would end up soon'

Third one, we are (Bali Bistro) expecting the March to come with our Ayam Penyet promotion! ah, I think I'll save the detail for later... basically it's like eating spicy contest.. Trying to finish it in 8minutes or so..

Anyway, working time! Typing lateR!
-still have to struggle since the air-co in the restaurant is having some problem with the hot air...ouch!-

Helo my friend!

I have received your greeting card! Thanks for it! I wonder how you know my exact address here.. haha..did I tell you? or maybe you searched it on the internet...There are a lot of things I wished to tell and a lot of things I want to share..but I think I'll just keep it for now..or maybe I can share it here? ahaha, But it will be too long though..

Shanghai is so cold now and this week will hit 3below 0. But I think it's not as cold as there.. Good to see snow ya, where all are just plain white stuff and so..haha.. How is your study? Keep fighting, you are smart and I believe you are doing your best now...and even you are in some difficulties, you just now who to rely on.. Remember? When God put you into it, He will put you through it?^^ yeah, it would be nice if we can have a chit-chatting or even a conversation..

Anyway, thanks for your wishes.. Being light and salt wherever I'm placed eh? then I believe you will also be those one.. You were ever since, you are, and you will be always toward everybody surrounds you..

Have a great life there, my friend! Until we meet again...(",)
God Bless you abundantly!



Your friend,
Okky Hidayat

semarang oh semarang
Ini kejadian nyata.. terjadinya di Bali Bistro..

Siang itu ada rombongan dari Indonesia, tour kunjungan ke Guangzhou terus mampir di Shanghai. Konon katanya karena sudah beberapa hari ga makan makanan Indonesia, mereka ini pengen makan makanan Indonesia, jadi si tour guide ajak mereka makan di Bali Bistro..

Setelah beberapa kali meladeni pertanyaan para bapak bapak yang ga bisa bahasa cina ini -tentu saja dengan bahasa indonesia-, mereka jadi berpikir kalau saya ini orang lokal Cina yang bisa berbahasa Indonesia dengan fasih..

Di akhir jamuan makan siang itu.. seorang bapak berbincang-bincang dengan saya...

B: "Pak, bapak ini kok lancar sekali ngomong pake bahasa Indonesia pak? Bapak orang sini kan?Dulu emang belajar bahasa atau sudah pernah tinggal di Indonesia atau gimana pak?
O: "Lho..saya ini orang Indonesia pak..."
B: "Ah! Yang bener Pak!"
O: "Lho..kok bapak ndak percaya...saya ini asli Semarang pak..."
B: "Wooooo...Kakea*e!"
O: "Haha..kok malah k*keane ki pie to Pak..."

Dalam hati saya shock juga, tapi juga pisuhan khas kota Semarang ini memang sudah sekian lama tidak terdengar di telinga saya.. jadi bikin kangen dengan guyonan-guyonan bareng anak-anak Semarang,yang njowoni itu... Saya juga pernah diketawain temen saya gara2 terima telpon pake bahasa cina tp dengan logat jowo yang khas.. Lha pie, bawaan oRok og..yo ngene iki Cah Semarang po ra?=P

(Semoga kapan-kapan kalo ada tamu lain yang tahu tentang Semarang, yang diingat bukan pisuhannya, tapi Simpang Limanya, Nasi Ayamnya, Bandeng Prestonya, Tugu Mudanya, dan kawan-kawannya...(",) )


nb:ini postingan berdasarkan request dari Celly Cumie Tanuwijaya...nanti kita Tujuhbelas agustusan bareng ya nak di Simpanglima...ahaha...=D

Have a good day, where ever you are.. God Bless you abundantly..

Amazing Life -Cafe-
Greeting from Shanghai!! IT IS getting cold here now.. but anyway, I just happened to be in a cafe called LIFE CAFE some times ago, and my first impression was.. WOW! It's so home made cafe which makes you feel at home.. all the menu there is handmade, the dessert also, and the coffee, you can find a lot of traditional coffee.. even the kupu kupu bali coffee also was on my sight too...^^

On the second floor, there are two rooms, one is for the wine cellar and library, the other is like mini home cinema where you can watch your favorite movie with its home theater, for free! all you need is just buy some cheese cake or hot chocolate while enjoying your movie..=D

The location itself is hidden in Julu Road, it doesn't look like cafe since it's merged with so like old house..but yes, it's a secret little wonderland.. It's amazed me..and what amazed me more is that this cafe is run by only 2 person.. the wife and her husband.. haha..makes me want to run another kind of this...

I put some of the picture, using slide application, you can check it [here]



ENJOY!!

Amazing Paper Glass
Hahaha..i found it to be funny when I was accompanying Karmela for her laptop is broken in Xujiahui today... it's a glass, paper, perhaps will be the most expensive paper glass ever.. Proudly present, A BURBERRY PAPER GLASS..


hehe..I don't know the price but, think to it, I recalled the saying 'Zai Zhongguo Mei Guan Xi' means 'In China, no problem' =P

Another jokes is brought by Desta and Vincent, but I'd rather to post it in Indonesian..

D: Vincent, kalo orang Jawa itu.. namanya gampang.. pasti belakangnya 'to' semua... Coba aja ini.. Parto, Purwanto, Mardiyanto, Sumanto, Limanto, kan semua 'to' kan? Jadi kalo ada orang Jawa, panggil aja 'to', pasti betul itu namanya..
V: hmm..bener juga ya.....ok ok, bagaimana kalo kita coba peranin, kamu pura-pura ga kenal aku, dan ceritanya aku ini orang Jawa..?
D: ok ok, kita roll ya..

D: Oiii...Toooo!! gimana..apakabar, wah..lama ga ketemu nih..
V: Lhoh? tapi..nama saya Didi..
D: Lha iya, Didi to?

=P

nb: kalo basa jawa, to itu bisa berarti 'kan'..jadi waktu Vincent bilang kalo namanya Didi dan bukan pake nama belakang to, si Desta langsung nyaut, 'Lha iya, Didi kan?'

Greeting from Shanghai!^^ God Bless you abundantly!

Amazing Learning
Seperti biasanya, saya suka membaca tulisan-tulisan dari blog lain.. Salah satunya adalah tulisan kakak rohani saya sewaktu kecil, yaitu Kak Wahyu Pramudya, yang sebenarnya mesti saya panggil Pak sekarang mengingat statusnya yang sudah menjadi seorang ayah..=D

Dalam blognya, [here], Kak Wahyu bercerita tentang bagaimana anaknya, Alden, sudah terbiasa dengan perjalanan dari rumah pastori ke gereja dan ketika suatu hari Kak Wahyu lewat jalan lain karena jalan yang biasanya dilalui macet, Alden memprotes setengah mati.. Bagaimanapun dia menjelaskan kepada Alden, Alden tetap tidak mau mengerti mengingat keterbatasan pikirannya.. Namun ketika mereka sudah sampai di gereja,keluhan Alden berubah menjadi pujian.. 'Papa pinter', begitu katanya..

Begitulah yang sering kita, manusia, keluhkan mengenai rancangan-rancangan Tuhan kepada kita.. karena keterbatasan pikiran kita, kita merasa lebih superior dari Tuhan tanpa mau berserah kepadaNya.. terkadang kita berdoa, melimpahkan segala keluh kesah kita..Tuhan bak tempat sampah dimana kita mengeluarkan semua unek2 tanpa mau bertanya apa yang sebenarnya Tuhan mau kita lakukan..

Kehidupan kekristenan adalah sebuah gaya hidup..gaya hidup yang bersandar kepadaNya..berserah dan yakin tentang apa yang Tuhan sedang kerjakan didalam hidup kita...

Sebuah pelajaran berharga..

opera blessings foR obedience
Hello world! I will not be in Shanghai starting for 1st of October to 4th of October for retreating a while in Suzhou..

My mom called me before and talk about Deuteronomy 28 for the first part... [The Blessings for Obedience], I want to write it down..

"If you fully obey the LORD your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations on earth. All these blessings will come upon you and accompany you if you obey the LORD your God:

You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country. The fruit of your womb will be blessed, and the crops of your land and the young of your livestock—the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks.

Your basket and your kneading trough will be blessed. You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out. The LORD will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven.

The LORD will send a blessing on your barns and on everything you put your hand to. The LORD your God will bless you in the land he is giving you.

The LORD will establish you as his holy people, as he promised you on oath, if you keep the commands of the LORD your God and walk in his ways. Then all the peoples on earth will see that you are called by the name of the LORD, and they will fear you. The LORD will grant you abundant prosperity—in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your ground—in the land he swore to your forefathers to give you.

The LORD will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none.

The LORD will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the LORD your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom.

Do not turn aside from any of the commands I give you today, to the right or to the left, following other gods and serving them."


one wise reminder before I go..
