momentum
Fiuh, after a full 2weeks, akhirnya saya bisa sedikit rehat sejenak, meskipun ga lama-lama juga sih sebenernya...

Saya mendapat informasi tentang 'Project BLUE BIRD', kesempatan bagi orang-orang Indonesia untuk bekerja mencari pengalaman di Belanda.. di poskan oleh salah satu FER member dan diforward ke seluruh pelajar ex-FER, program ini berdurasi kurang lebih 19bulan.. Tawaran yang cukup menarik.

Masalahnya ada di momentum. Ya, momentum project ini tidak pas dengan situasi saya.. (or situasi saya yang tidak pas ya?) Intinya begitulah.. Saya mendiskusikan hal ini dengan Jo dan dia bercerita panjang lebar tentang momentum... Momentum, salah satu faktor kunci kesuksesan yang tidak bisa diabaikan juga... Selain faktor momentum, persiapan saya juga belum mapan juga... Bahasa cina saya yang masih pas-pasan juga menjadi alasan saya untuk tetap tinggal di Shanghai.. Bekerja sambil belajar bahasa? Kurang lebih begitu...

Sorenya Cha2 telpon juga untuk konfirmasi project ini...dan dia juga sepakat kalau project ini tidak cocok untuk saya... Project ini lebih cocok untuk fresh graduate yang sedang cari kerja ataupun pengalaman dan sebagainya... Well actually it would be great to be able to meet her..haha..

Ngomong-ngomong soal momentum juga, kalau akhirnya saya memutuskan untuk melupakan masalah Ms.G, saya rasa juga karena momentumnya yang tidak pas..haha..

Okelah, sekarang kembali fokus bekerja..(sambil belajar juga tentunya)


(noted: there's a slight difference between giving up and realizing that you had enough)

The best and the most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or touched, but are felt in the heart..


That is written on my notebook I bought in the beginning of this year in People Square... I just didn't realize what's written on it until I re-read it again during my day to day Chinese lesson.. Anyway, I'm doing fine here but still the weather just don't love me that much.. still have to thanks God that I'm in Shanghai.. Feel deeply sad to know about the earthquake in Japan but glad to hear all people I know there are all safe...

well a lot of things going on here which me myself couldn't describe it clearly..what's going on here? time flies so fast and people just come and go...moreover that those things to be felt in the heart, I couldn't really feel it.. [or maybe I just miss my old fellows n old feelings....]

Just a little biT
Some introduction about China...fact that I get from my Chinese lesson :
  1. China population is about 1300 million people, the biggest population in the world.
  2. China has about 960km square area, almost the same with Europe.
  3. China has 23 province, 5 Autonomous Region, 4 Municipalities, 2 Special Administrative Regions. Beijing is the capital city of China.
  4. China has 56tribes. Besides The Han, there are The Hui, Tibetan, Mongolian, and 55 others small tribes.
  5. Yangtse River and Yellow river are two biggest river in China. Yangtse River's length is about 6300km while Yellow River's is about 5600km.
  6. The North East of China, Heilongjiang Province, during the winter time could reach its air temperature of minus 40degrees Celsius. While the north-est place in China, Hainan Island, the average temperature of around 25degrees Celsius.
  7. The east of China and the west of China covers more than 5000km. When the sun rises from the east part of China, its west part is still covered by dusk.
and the worse is that it's written on Chinese.. Fact that the 2nd book has no more pinyin on the text forces my brain to work harder... OK, go intermediate man!

An interesting breakfast I had this morning was a '鸡蛋饼' (Ji Dan Bing) with '油条' (You Tiao), a traditional Shanghai food with kind of Cakwee...only for 3.50 RMB, and grab a small box of Chocolate milk for 3.80RMB, costs me total of 7.30RMB and keep me away from hunger until 2.30pm... NICE! Will have it for another day then.. (",) Well, reservation goes crazy, time for reality now..oyeah, IT'S FUN TIME!!! Ciao!

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!-

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...(",)

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!!


picture was edited by Jessice Xie, thanks for bringing me there!^^

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..
