Hey blog..been abandon your for awhile.. sorry for sharing my love to you with the tumblr. I feel so sorry about that, i hope i can make it up with you... would you forgive me, blog?
I've been doing lotta things during the holiday, mostly to help my mom at home. yey, she went outta town a lot with dad lately, so i should take care the whole thing at home while she was going out. But, that's totally fine, i feel trusted and "maturer" by that :--)
I cleaned house, iron clothes, washed the clothes, did the dishes, swept floor, picked up my sister, even cooked with my sister, which is something that i rarely do in school's weeks due to my tight hours at campus, or busy doing my homework either big assignment till late at night. I guess, being a housewife is a really big deal :--) she has done lot of things in a day with her two hands and rarely complained about it. I will learn harder so I could be a good one someday soon :--)
Well, i believe 2016 will be an awesome year. Can't wait to explore the whole new things in this year. May Allah always eases every of our step in this year and helps us make our dreams come true, aamiin. See ya!
"In many ways, i prefer my own company. It gives me time to think."
Ini tadi siang iseng banget, berhubung bingung mau kemana karena harus nunggu adek selesai ekskul pramuka, jadinya jalan-jalan sendiri deh di daerah Pemuda, hehe dan menemukan banyak hal yang photo-able, plus jalan tembus ke suatu pintu air. Berhubung cuacanya panas banget dan hidung udah jadi merah gegara kemarin ngurusin maba -,- sepanjang perjalanan tutupan kerudung kaya surbanan gt hahaha. Akhir-akhir ini lagi suka gusar, nggatau deh kenapa huhu. Dan jalan-jalan sendiri kayak tadi banyak membantu buat perbaikin mood ;) oiya, gara-gara jalan tadi, jadi nyadar ternyata aku nggabisa nyebrang di jalan raya besar hiks nyampek diketawain bapak yang jualan es di seberang jalan, waktu berhasil nyebrang bapaknya bilang "kalo nyebrang jangan ragu-ragu mbak" wkwkwk, mungkin emang aing mah lagi menyimpan banyak keraguan gini ya :)) btw tadi waktu ngeliatin pintu airnya keren bgt lah. jadi bayangin klo kerja nanti sering ke lapangan gitu lihat proyek. Semangat laahhhh abis ini udah masuk kuliah lagi! insyaAllah.
Hello world! It's morning again. Before starting the productive days ahead, would like to share some thought here. Well, after almost a month sparing my times for it, finally last night I finished reading the novel of Love, Rosie by Cecelia Ahern, yey :) and ended by falling in love more with the book version rather than the film. but they both actually leave the same feeling for me, the story was just too sweet yet heart-breaking all at once, fortunately they ended in a happy way though it takes 50 years due to the book version.
I always wonder why the title is Love, Rosie? Not Love Rosie? and finally found the answer after reading this. I like the way Cecelia tells the stories only through the letters, chatting, and email that've been written by the characters on this novel. The way she arranges the words and how Rosie can write every detail that happens in her life becomes so entertaining. This book will show you how people can fall in love only through letters that written upon papers.. a screen of computer.. or a phone.. for 50 years and through miles! America - Ireland, it sweets :)
I love the way Cecelia tells the stories about family, friendship, and lovers - bond between the characters on it. The Dunne Family, The friendship bond between Alex - Rosie, Katie - Toby, or Rosie - Ruby. Life happens that way, some taste sweets, some may bitter. But when you hold on and have a patience, we all will get what we deserve. You guys should read it too! I recommend you. I bet you will get so many (wise) quotes about life after reading this book wkwk :P
There’s something completely unnerving about seeing your parents upset. I suppose it’s because they’re supposed to be the strong ones, but that’s not just it. Ever since people are kids they use their parents as some sort of measurement for how bad a situation is. When you fall on the ground really hard and you can’t figure out whether it hurts or not you look to your parents. If they look worried and rush toward you, you cry. If they laugh and smack the ground saying “Bold ground,” then you pick yourself up and get on with it.
Parents are the barometers of emotions for children and it has a domino effect. I had never seen my mum cry so much in all of my life which scared me and made me cry which scared Katie and made her cry. We all cried together.
As for Dad, he was supposed to live forever. The one who could open all the jar lids nobody else could, who fixed whatever was broken, was supposed to do that forever. The man who let me sit on his shoulders, climb on his back, chase me around while making monster noises, throw me in the air and catch me, spin me around so much until I felt dizzy and fell over laughing.
And in the end without being able to say thank you and a proper goodbye, my final memories of him turn into coffin sizes and medical forms.
Hey blog, it's raining at my home and i'm feeling tired after taking care of some matters with my friend. So here I end up - again! hekekekek. I really catch you very soon, aye? :P
I think I wanna share my experience in making cupcakes times ago! because i scare i might forget how to make it (because i still have no time to make it again), so i'll blog it here!
Things you need to prepare:
Flour, i buy one that already mixed one pack with the addition ingredients (such as vanilli, etc), it will make your works 100x times easier hehehe!
2 eggs
oil
chocolate
powdered sugar
cupcakes mold
oven
colorful candy/any cake garnish
Ways to make it:
1. Prepare the flour at a bowl/the mixer bowl, add 2 eggs into it, then also pour the oil (it's about 10-15 tablespoon). Mix them! Until the color turns into slightly light yellow. You just need to turn the mixer power into the maximum, and hold it for 5-7 minutes. And tadaaa your needed mixture is there! 2. Prepare the cupcakes mold, the aluminum ones and the paper ones. Place the paper cupcakes mold inside the aluminium ones, and place it into a bigger-rectangular-aluminium-mold, so it will be way simpler to place inside the oven.
3. Pour the cupcakes mixture into the mold, adjust the amount with your oven heat, if it burned the cake swiftly, just add into 7/8 part, if it burned normally just add the mixture fully. :)
4. To not make my cupcakes taste plain, I usually add cheese/caramel/chocolate in the middle of it. So I pour the mixture into 1/2 part, and add the filling (grated cheese/caramel/etc) into it, then continue adding the mixture into the 7/8 or fully part. After it's ready, place it inside the oven! And wait until 15-20 minutes, depends on the type of your oven.
waiting it to be fully baked yayy yayy
5. While waiting your cupcakes to be done, let's prepare for the decorating part! I usually make it from chocolate or you can make it from icing! I will describe you both..
6. To make the garnish from melting chocolate, I usually buy the white-chocolate ones, so I can make some color- not only white or chocolate, hehey. Melt the chocolate above the hot water, when it's melt enough, take it and placed it above the cupcakes. So easy, right? 7. If you want to garnish it with icing/cream, you need to prepare butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk! Just mix them for some minutes until it tastes and looks like a cream, then just add it into a triangle plastic, cut the tip, and BHEW! Make your own icing above your cupcakes!
my first attempt in making cupcakes
8. Have a happy tummy with cupcakes! ;)
I can't provide many images/videos huhu, sorry! I was so busy making it last time that I didn't take many pictures! I only can hold my phone when I already washed my hands.. teheee! I'll show you better next time when I make it, insyaAllah. By the way.. i really miss cooking something (mostly for someone :P) huhu!
beautiful scenery at Paralayang and Pantai Gua Cina
Hey blog..
finally i got a free time for awhile, at least it's still 4 hours until i need to do something again. so, I want to fulfill my promise to someone that asked me at ask.fm hehe..
yes, I've been being so busy lately.. my academic and non academic's activities, both kept me running, mostly at this November. I even never spent my weekend at home! So these are what I did last month.. (especially at the weekend)
1) Done one of training's following event at my campus.
2) Done one of my task, went out with friends, slept over at her house, then the next day I went to Car free day, and played basketball.
3) Went to support my major KJI team at Malang
4) Had RAKER and watched Maliq.
and at the weekdays, I had a super tiring school's days because I got such a much tasks, a heavy series of practices, lot of evaluations, and another activities.
It can be a super long story if I should write every detail that happened to me, so I will just tell you the highlight part of it ;-) okey?
So, the training's following event that I've done was called TD Pusaka. I was being an OC in there. Like usual, I need to prepare things that needed, wake up earlier, etc. But the good news is I did it with my other 50+25 friends :) So, the tiredness were paid back by having a good time with them! :) Btw, from that activity, me and my friends have new toy to play, it's called "Break claps". It's a series of clapping hand with different patterns from 1 to 7, and it's challenging because it has a nice and engrossed sounds. Beside that, me and Vio was taught (not-so) privately by someone that I can't tell the name. :p
The next weekend, I had an even crazier days! It happened when my friends, Vio and Bibib asked to finish our Mektek Task together. actually, we supposed to do it at KFC Kertajaya with Hisyam, but suddenly these two girls popped front of my house, and all the plans were changed. At the end, we've done it at my house while eating an ice cream that we bought earlier :) But not so long after we started to do our homework.. we got bored.. and had an idea to go to Sutos instead hahaha! So.. yeah there we go.. SUTOS at 10 P.M!
Guess what we did in there? Yes, after goofing around for couple times, enter the stationery's store, watching people eating, then we end up by entering the cinema, buying the popcorn. And... only...watching.. trailer of films! :p
our sleepy faces
at 12 PM we went back, I had a sleepover at Vio's. It was raining on that day.. and suddenly omik answered my message, so we were chatting for awhile, but he's on busy mode that early morning so I decided joining Vio to sleep hihi. The next morning, Bibib picked me and Vio up! We went to help Icak vend at Car Free Day Darmo. Me and Vio bought socks in there! It was only 5000 and we got two pairs of it! :D So cheap huh, after tired walking around in there, finally we found Icak. Then we bought many foods, yeah! I ate up 1 portion of fried rice and 2 portions of grilled meatballs. Hweheheheehhhhh, so full! :)
After had my stomach full, we went to Basketball court at ITS Sukolilo. yeah, I played for some minutes in there :)) only randomly running with my shoes off.. and it felt hot! I also played free throw ball with Bibib and Vio. So, we had terms that before we throw the ball we should shout the name of someone that disturbing our mind hahahaha. So.. when I got my 3rd turned, I shout Tommy's name. "Ini buaaaaaaat omiiiiik" then I throw the ball, and dang! it was goal! :p But when I told him this story, he said that it was dramatic --" *sobs* yeah.. that's how I ended my crazy 2nd weekend! Woho!
Well..now we got on the 3rd weekend part. It will take too much words to describe the happiness of my 3rd weekend's journey. Maybe, these videos and pictures below would tell you better :)
failed video =))
better one =))
our happy faces! finally, beach!
This journey was especially dedicated for our friend Tiara who needs a refreshment because of something :) I hope you won't ever be sad again! After supporting our major's team at KJI and KBGI events, we made our own holiday! Yes, we spent 3 days and 2 nights at Batu-Malang. I was so happy that days, I met some of my high school's friends too in there, they were Hendro, Devy, and Nanda. It was good to feel the nice and cold weather of Batu-Malang (again).. having jokes with friends.. spent the night together.. at Alun-alun, at the car along the journey, etc. Being with the ones you loved and love you, always good, right? :)
Thanks for the great holiday! As always.. Looking forward for the next! yeyy yeyy
Finally.... I reach the last part! It's my 4th weekend!
So, I have a new activity, I got accepted for being a staff at BEM FTSP, I'm at Communication and Information Department. I dont know how.. but I really liked my job.. It's like I'm not doing anything, because everything that I gotta do.. were my hobbies! Writing.. capturing moments.. editing photos. :) I know, Allah always knows the best. right? alhamdulillah. What's more exciting about it? I met many new friends in there. Hopefully I can get along well with them.. do every of my tasks in here well too.. and be consistent aamiin!
last day activity.. after sitting for hours in 3 days! hoaam
after finished the raker sessions. Bibib and Vio (again) picked me up! Because we need to catch our interview test at chemical engineering building. Hehe, it was my first time went there, seriously guys after a year! ckckckck. Well.. if you 're going to ask me how was the test going?.. you better not :-) Maybe vio and bibib would answer it better (because they found something interesting in there..hahahaa).
at east coast
After we've done the interview sessions, we went to mosque and had a long chat in there. and at 8PM we went eating at East Coast, and as the closing part of this year's November! We watched Maliq D' Essentials! Woo! I thought, it was a great performance by them, because it has been awhile since the last time I watched a music concert..hehe.. by the way.. have i tell you that Bibib had her birthday on that 30th November? kindly shout "Happy birthday Bibib" yaa! And also don't forget to wish her the best wishes :)
So..that's how my November went.. see you folks! tasks are already waiting for me! bye
Last Saturday and Sunday, me and my other four friends just had a short holiday to Malang :) Well, actually we supposed to look for villa for our major's event next month in there.. But beside that, we took our times and had fun instead. :-p
So, we went there from Surabaya at 11a.m on Saturday morning, actually it supposed to be at 5a.m, but because of my sudden event, we couldn't make it, and end up went there at 11a.m. The traffic was kinda crowded that day, it took 6hours for us to arrive at Malang, and.. luckily the weather was not so hot, it was kinda gloomy, even we wished that it will rain, but it wasn't. We sang a lot at car, talking this and that.. you know, heart's problems =)) took photos, made video, slept, ate, and so many else.
Finally, at 17.17 we arrived at Egar's house. Placed at Jalan Sulfat, Malang, it has a super cozy environment, also the weather, it was cool, kinda windy, and the grey sky, made it feel perfect! After entering the house, Egar's mom was greeting us, and let us cleaning our self. The girls were sleeping at Egar's room which all is colored blue (and i think, omik would love it) then the boys were sleeping at Egar's sister's room which dominated with pink, hahahaha. After had some rest, Egar's parents invited us to have a dinner outside and we ate Sop Ayam! Which made us so full at a blink of eye! Ugh, but it was a delicious choice in that kind of weather, thank you so much om dan tante for the foods heheh! :)
the way our horizons meet..
After done eating, Me, bibib, temon, icak, palom were going to Payung. (Egar couldn't join us because he was sick), We seek for that famous starry night Batu's view in there~ Though the traffic was kinda jam.. we still enjoy our trip.. and finally arrived there. After moved from one place to another because of so many reasons, we could finally decide a place and delivered some foods! Like, milk, bread toast, and grilled corn. I enjoy gazing at the night's view.. though it's kinda cold, i felt happiness running through my veins, and made me feel warmer within myself. You know.. as I passed every way into there, I saw many old films playing in my mind, like.. every place has its own memory at my heart.. and i missed them all. But now, 3 years after that, i have my new journey with new people, making new stories all over again, and i figure out how fast times are. :) After enough enjoying the night, we back to Egar's house, and arrived there at 11.54 pm. Soon, after we entered the house, 3 people were directly pray Isya, and the left 2 were busy took out their stomach's contents wkwkwk, soon then we slept !
The 2nd daay, we went to Cuban Rondo Waterfall. Honestly, that was my first time going there =)) Like usual, we took photos, entered the pond, and the water was supppeerrr cold =)) From Cuban Rondo, we had lunch with Egar, Jija, Dzul, and Egar's brother at Waroeng Bamboe. Was a cozy restaurant with good concept. Lastly, we went to find the villa, haha!
Around 5 pm, we had our way to go back to Surabaya. Not doing much in the car, because everyone was already tired. (feeling sorry for Temon because he couldn't take a rest as long as the journey like we do). Was another great journey with friends :) and my personal companion who company me even when it was only through the phone, haha! looking forward for the next. Hopefully soon yah! Thanks everybody.
Semester 3 ini. wihhh! Kuliahnya hemm kerasa kuliah banget! Dulu waktu SMA, guru olahragaku, Pak Dicky, sering cerita-cerita, terus kasih intermezzo gitu, katanya kalo di ITS itu tugasnya buwanyaakk, sampek-sampek mahasiswanya bikin singkatan gitu, ITS -> Isok Turu Sangar. ITS -> Istirahat Tidak Sempat. wahahaha dan ternyata aku masuk ITS dan ternyata beneran pek, sampek waktu semester 2 kemarin aku dilematis sama yang namanya tidur ! Bingung antara harus tidur sama "haruskah tidur" aneh banget kan tuh.. padahal kan tidur enak bingits :-(
Tapi disamping capek-capeknya, sebenernya kuliah semester 3 sampai minggu ke 6 ini menurutku seru! Soalnya beda banget sama di tahun pertama kemarin. Kan masih kayak yang dasar-dasar banget, kalo sekarang uda mulai banyak kayak..e gimana sih kalo di lapangan nantik. Apalagi kelasku di ajarin sama beberapa dosen yang sebelumnya belum pernah ngisi di kelas, dan beliau-beliau ini udah ahli di lapangan gitu.. jadi lebih tertantang. Uda mulai ada keinginan, kayak pengen konsentrasi kemana gitu.. dan sampai sekarang ini, aku agak tertarik sama.. ilmu beton, ilmu tanah, sama manajemen konstruksi.. Berat sih emang kuliah, tugas-tugasnya, evaluasinya, yang sering banget bertabrakan, numpuk-numpuk, dan ga ilok banget :-(
Aku pernah lagi sharing sama mbak sepupuku, yang orangnya tuh, keren banget! One of my role model lah, kita tuh sama-sama cucu cewek tertua di keluarga, terus dulu mba nya juga alumni spensa, alumni smada, terus alumni ITS juga, dan skrg lagi dpt scholarship S2 di London. Keren abis! Waktu itu aku pernah cerita, aku takut, kenapa sampe sekarang kayak aku blm nemu passionku, kayak masih abu-abu sebenernya aku itu cocoknya dimana sih, ahli nya dimana sih, bakal bisa perform maksimal dimana sih, takut dan takut, terus mba diz bilang sama aku kayak gini,
"Proses belajar itu ada 3 riz,
Ketika kamu dapet atau kamu lagi belajar sesuatu, terus kamu ngerasa, 'Oh ini ta? ini aku mah udah tau dan uda bisa', itu berarti kamu lagi ada di tingkat belajar paling bawah, paling dasar.
Terus kalo kamu belajar lagi dan kamu ngerasa, 'loh gimana tuh ya? tadi gimana sih? yang bagian A ini gimana?', itu berarti kamu uda naik satu tingkat lagi dari tingkat sebelumnya
Dan ketika kamu belajar, terus kamu ngerasa, "Duh aku bodoh banget ya, gatau deh tadi itu semua apaan", ketika kamu ngerasa gabisa apa-apa, kamu ada di fase belajar paling tinggi.
Belajar itu proses dari tidak tau menjadi tau kan. Sekali lagi itu proses, bukan sesuatu yang instan."
Aku seneng banget! Sekarang kayak sudah dapet gambaran pengen kemana! Kayak kalo waktu aku duduk di kelas 6SD aku bikin goal harus bisa lanjutin ke SMPN 1. Terus waktu duduk di kelas 9SMP aku bikin goal bisa lanjutin ke SMAN komplek. Terus waktu duduk di kelas 12SMA bikin goal bisa lanjutin ke Sipil dan Perencanaan, gitu deh.
"Karena yang berat itu bukan memilih, namun bertahan pada pilihan"
Bismillahirohmanirrohim! Allahuma yassir wala tu' asir! Semoga bisa semangat terus! Pasti bisa! Pasti bisa! Makasih ya yang sudah menularkan rajin-rajinnya ke padaku! It means a lot! :D
Hmmmmmm... I found some couple sketches that I made, long time ago. I also read some of my old drafts. Then It made me realize jussssssst how productive I could be when I...have someone who inspire me. I can draw, I can sing, i can make a handy craft, i write poems, i write stories, simply because I have someone that can be a character inside my imagination. And i think i like it ;)
You know, I portrait how world will be so much prettier, easier, and other better things when we could simply inspire each other. When we share positive vibes each other. HA HA HA like when we're falling in love, maybe? HA HA HA we all know how people say that love is blind. yes, you only see the good things from someone that you fall in love with, no matter how actually bad are they, but they just look ok for you ;)
Katanya RAN siiiihhhh
".....Tunjukkanlah rasa cintamu,
coba buat mereka tahu,
betapa indahnya dunia,
bila engkau sedang jatuh cintaaa....."
It's not always means love to someone. Love is an universal thing. Maybe loving our job. Maybe loving what's we're currently studying, maybe loving our friends then we plan to do something positive together, maybe loving our religion, our Allah, and there're still so many things that we can fall in love with which means there're so many things that can inspire us to do something good ! <3
“You might feel worthless toone person, but you are priceless to another.”
As for what Gordon-Levitt wants in a woman, he tells, “Making checklists of things you’re looking for in a person is the numero uno thingyou can do to guarantee you’ll be alone forever.”
He adds,“You just have to pay attention, keep your eyes open, listen to people and be present. I guess what I look for in a girl is someone who’s doing that too.”
Thanks God it's Friday yay ! Finally I woke up earlier this morning :') My normal sleep hours is back, so so happy.. Currently doing my task with friends in this early day, wish it was a good sign that I would be back productive again in days on :p
**
Gonna continue my last morning post. Yesterday, My friday was keep going on. so I just arrived at home from Malang this morning, for taking my brother back there because he'll have an exam today, i have no idea how my brother's feeling to have an exam on Saturday? A bit suck, i guess ckck.. Beside, we took my brother back to Malang, me and my family were coming to my mom's friend's house first. It placed at Lawang and the weather there was really nice. The house has a big yard and good view, it's a 1948's building, so vintage and classic. Such a comfy place to relieve all stresses. After had chit-chat, we were treated by a super delicious dinner. I ate much enough (as always) :P. My mom's friend really had an unique family, he has ten siblings, and all of them are really like to make jokes even though they're no longer a teenager :)))) (they're already 50-68 years old)
So..last night me and my family just couldn't stop laughing to hear their stories =)) Not only told numbers of funny stories but they also gave my family some 'wejangan' since they're older than us so they already had more experiences in life, and it really worth to hear.
From them, i can learn so many things.. I see, how beautiful is the togetherness in a family. Since we're growing up together with them, from a tiny baby until insya' Allah being a grandmother / grandfather (aamiin), they're the ones who know our good and bad, then still accept and love us, endlessly. they're the ones who always gonna be there when we're up or down, when we're happy or sad, when we're holding too much or angry, the ones who's gonna catch us whenever we fall. Place where we could be who we are. No pretending, no drama, it just a place where we can simply be ourself..
And place where we can always calling it, home.
“Home is where you are loved the most and act the worst.” ― Marjorie Pay Hinckley
Yes, even though we ever argue each other, so many times about so many stuffs, in the end we also know how to forgive each other. Look through and see how deep deep in my heart, i know that how big is my love for my family, they're irreplaceable, they're the numero uno. they're ones in the whole universe, and I'm so thankful to Allah SWT for sending me such guardians in this earth, one pack with...their goodness.. their flaws.. their loves.. and their spirits..
