Yaaak, Alhamdulillah I have arrived back safely to Enschede last week by Bus-Train, from Paris via Brussels and Amsterdam. Well, it’s such one of my best travelling experience, a week full of interesting places, beautiful scenes, yummy cuisines and dramas, yes drama. What kind of story is without a drama… hahahaha…

We’re starting from Milan, Italy. I spent 2 days there and directly fall in love to their mass transportation system, integrated, easy and the cheapest among others. During my stays I tried the all kind including tram, subway/metro, train, cable car, and bus. I can write a single post for the transportation story only.. hehehe..

Well, since it is Europe,

Alright, Paris then…

Two weeks ago, when my best fella—Iyud came to Jogja and spent couple of days in this city, we intended to make our journey to the beach. Simple task anyway, but for people with no common sense about Jogja it’s rather very absurd. That was nice Saturday morning, with nearly clear blue sky and warm weather. We supposed to visit Indrayanti Beach, one of beautiful beach in Kulon Progo, Jogjakarta. Relied on Google Map, mobile phone GPS, and anothe gps (Global Pitakon System) we started our journey that day.

Last Saturday I asked my friend to take me lunch and we went to Moshiro, a place of fusion Korean Street cuisines. We ordered bulgogi set menu, it’s called by Bulgogi Dosirak. It simply looks like a bento for me. The set includes rice (ssal), stirred sliced bulgogi (I think it’s tasted like teriyaki, no offense), veggies kimchi pancakes, a slice of frying egg roll and two bites of water melon.

A December post, a rain-wet-related post…

—December is the most wet month in Indonesia, due to its monsoonal climate—

Couple weeks ago my friends and I went to the city. We intended to get some refresher treatment from a very tired week, but it was just out of our control. The plan seemed not work so well…

Finally my mum and dad arrived to Indonesia this week and have been in Jogja since yesterday. We took a shopping time after the heavy rain finally had finished -not really actually it is still drizzling right now while I’m typing.. .

It’s just a random shoot from my mobile phone’s camera. Zero kilometer of Jogja.

You guess what? I am really fallin in love to the post-rainy night atmosphere. Due to the Tyndall effect, the night become lighter, street lamps are scattered, just a very nice night view…

and this is saturday night anyway, I miss my love so bad…

Bike To School

Bike to work, bike to school, bike to everywhere…

These past years this slogan become so popular, a modern lifestyle—environmental friendlier campaign. I’ve never imagined before that I will take a part – technically. Since my grad class began in September this year, biking is my major transportation from my boarding house to school. Well, it’s not really far actually, but walking makes me tired a lot *halaah.. Shortly my mother bought me one, a folding bike.

Why I said this is out of my imagination, for the real, real answer maybe you should ask to my undergrad friends or my parents how dreadful it will be when you combine me and the bike. Totally disaster.

My best pals jokingly said that they never want to ask me again joining them biking around campus. I do not blame them, since my riding skills are zero. One day on a Meteorology Today, my community held a fun bike festival around campus. You know what; I made the last on parade and allowed no body riding near to me at least 5 meters away. They made a fun of me –of course—than I just screamed around or suddenly pulled the breaker and took so many stops.

So today I’m very grateful, I can manage it well even it’s not easy though. Hahaha..

Let’s bike to school!!
