New Year's gift

It was a long day for me. I felt exhausted so before I slept last night, I gave my deep sigh. I  also felt my strength released over my body and I was surrounded by my weakness. I felt low and finally let all my worry go while I slept. Well, it is not really big issue though, just something come up in my mind, something like what if, how can, etc. www.dreamstime.com The good news now is that I am happy to tell you how happy I am now. After releasing a deep sigh last night, I forgot everything and fallen into a deep sleep quickly. Guess what? I had a dream about my  cool grandfather. I want to write that because the feeling was like he is visiting me and comforting me. Also, I am felling supported by the fact that he came by wearing  his blue western-style shirt and Nagekeo"s sarong plus a laptop bag in the back. That was cool. He looked so fresh like a young man as wise as before. I don't know what we  were  talking about  but as we sat together in a restaurant table.

Floating Market versi Lembang

Beberapa hari lalu, saya dan teman-teman berkunjung ke Floating Market nya Bandung. Berbeda dari tempat wisata  yang kami kunjungi, Floating Market benar-benar tempat wisata yang bersih, rapi, aman dan nyaman. Mengapa demikian? Soalnya saya menemui taman-taman mini yang cantik juga kerja yang baik dari seluruh staf FM yang langsung  tanggap bersih-bersih setelah ada yang meninggalkan sampah. Sebenarnya sayang juga, bukan karena kesadaran pengunjung tapi karena pekerjanya yang siap sedia.  Selain itu, di FM, kamu tidak menemui penjual-penjual yang menjajakan dagangannya di sembarang tempat, atau memaksa kamu buat beli dagangan atau memanggil-manggil menjajakan makanannya. Di FM, semua terkondisikan, sehingga pembeli dan penjual nyaman. Oh ya, konsep FM ini jangan kamu bayangkan, kalau kamu ikut bertransaksi di atas perahu. Kamu di pinggir saja, sedangkan penjaja makanan menjajakan makanan di atas perahu (bukan perahu sih)  di pinggir danau buatan. Makanan yang dijual biasanya bu

Good Holiday

I didn't prepare my holiday at the beginning. My friend asked me and my answer was Jakarta and Bogor while honestly it is not my favorite place. I may go there just one day or two to get rid my boredom. Well, sorry for those who longing for long holiday, I have almost 20 days of day off from school and I have no itinerary. Travelling generally means to me if I am not just travel around, but at least I participate in something like conference, relatives wedding or seminars. Last night I searched about the possibility of getting summer school scholarship anticipating my next summer holiday. I checked my previous and found one email from my Malaysian friend about one international training in peace in Pati Semarang. I checked the dates, and the good news is I am available on that day.At first, I was disappoint because the registration was closed since November. However I tried to email them and got the good news today. I can participate on the training in 4-9 January 2016.  I have

Book Review: How to stop Worrying and Start Living

I would like to start this review by mentioning why I chose this book instead  of other fun materials. Let me guess that you may think of how stressed I am to read this kind of book. Even myself had thought that it must be really depressed person to have interest in it. Well, the reason behind it that it was for the English learning purpose. I committed to buy one of English book and at the time there it was. Well, let me review it for you. Actually this is  an old books and it is quite popular,  wrote with love and passion by the famous Dale Carnegie .  As it well written in the title, the writer wants to give advice to the reader about how to overcome the worry that you may face in your real life. If you are a businessman or who just want to start with it, this is a good book.   Honestly to me, this book is like well written diary. Every chapter of this book begins with such  a real story that you can easily imagine it. Before explaining the "how" things, the wr

Merry Christmas

What a week! Paris bombed, a die to early of student

Writing is  a continuous process and look how I commit to do it, a  post for one month?? that is terrible. What on earth I am doing! I am not so busy, though. Well, move on! this month I should post more to have better  accumulative number than last year. It means that I have to post more than 8 posts at minimum to get the good record for myself.  Last week was sad, heard a really sad news about Paris bombed. My  heart and prayers  are  with the victims. I can not imagine how people were excited to enjoy the concert with the light heart and then they had to face the end of their life at sudden. This is a big crime in human right, men are getting cruel day by day.  To adding some problem to that, I have to add more with the suicide of a young boy of Junior High School near my home. I think the local government should have more concern about this case. I don't know what come in this young boy to commit suicide while that would be a lot to see in this still very beautiful world.

Random Soal Cinta

Hi good people, Semoga semua hal selalu baik adanya sesuai restu Tuhan dan kebahagiaan kita. Mari bersyukur untuk seminggu kemarin yang telah kita lewati. Banyak up dan down, tapi percayalah banyak yang mencintai kita dengan sungguh- sungguh. Ada keluarga kita yang meski jauh, selalu membawa kita dalam doa di tiap hari mereka memulai hari. Mari kita selalu bersyukur untuk itu. pray for people who loved & hurt you Bahkan mungkin ada teman dekat yang selalu mendoakan kita diam-diam. Mendoakan kebahagiaan orang lain adalah hal yang baik, apalagi orang yang kita sukai. Isi doanya sih, tidak macam-macam, mana bisa kita mendoakan agar  dia balik menyukai kita. Kita sungguh tidak bisa memaksa seseorang untuk menyukai kita. Mendoakan agar dia selalu dalam damai, sehat dan bahagia sudah bikin kita bahagia.  Kemudian, kita bisa mempersiapkan diri untuk kehidupan kita ke depannya, menjadi lebih baik, lebih bijak,lebih damai,  lebih rendah hati dan lebih bahagia sampai ada saatnya o

Saya

Hola, Saya, Rosa.  Saya suka sekali tidur dan bermimpi. Suka diajar dan mengajar. Menikmati puisi, pagi dan senja. Suka pengalaman "ahaaa". Makin tua, pengalaman ahaaa-nya semakin banyak.  Dan suka kamu-kamu yang positif, jujur dan humoris. Tulisan-tulisan di blog ini adalah rangkaian cerita hidup, pemikiran, pengalaman yang sayang kalau tidak dituliskan. Kadang post di sini dipakai untuk belajar Bahasa Inggris, self writing assignments. 

Tertawa

Mari menertawakan ketidakistimewaan mari menertawakan ketidaktahuan mari menertawakan kebodohan mari menertawakan kesenjangan mari menertawakan perbedaan mari menertawakan kebutaan mari menertawakan kekeliruan mari menertawakan ketidakberdayaan mari menertawakan penolakan mari menertawakan ketegaran mari menertawakan kelemahan mari menertawakan kesakitan mari menertawakan kesenjangan itulah cara Tuhan memberi tahu bahagia yang sederhana and the universe will laugh with you...

Rasanya seperti sudah lama kenal Jika diam adalah hal yang paling indah Untuk dinikmati bersama Mengecap pikiran masing-masing Duduk dalam angin sepoi Siang sedang teriknya Tetapi kita teduh (September,2015,mengenang kita)

Trip to Situ Cileunca & Malabar tea garden

Well, hi good people... Happy weekend! Last week was the best. We went to Pengalengan Bandung, enjoyed our togetherness and had a bunch of beautiful moments. Oh well, I have to introduce my good and crazy classmates here. We will be a team for the next two years and until the rest of our life. Finally,I saw and enjoyed the tea garden there. Also, the nice sun rise in the lake that we found accidentally. Pengalengan is about 2 hours from Bandung to the south. You have to go there by car or motorcycle because there is not public transportation(Sorry,I am not really sure about this). You can visit Situ Ciluenca and Malabar tea garden. Also have #igabakar for your lunch.It was around 35K and worth it. All the photos here are not mine. It taken from ig @liaryanti,'s phone, @bimastyaji  and our cool photographer's @didiguci (ig). Please contact personally for capturing your joyful events and also find him in https://ranselkubutut.wordpress.com/2015/09/19/no-day-without-la

Short Course-Jogjakarta

Hi good people, how’s life? Welcome to my personal blog. I hope that you will enjoy my writing style. If there may be many grammar errors , please let me know :D I had great moments in these past few weeks. Really, August is my month. These are a glance that I have to mention:   failed to attend the closing ceremony (this was sad) , went home   (it was the early birthday gift) ,long journey Ende-Kupang-Surabaya-Jakarta-Bandung trip in my birthday and   first week as graduate student in Institute Technology Bandung (pray for my weight, Bandung is the best place to gain more weight). First of all, I want to thank all of you for all the birthday wishes. It means a lot. The one advantage of LPDP scholarship (affirmation program) is that you will have an English program conducted by a really experience lectures and facilitators.  All the awardees-photo: madame KS I was lucky to have P2B UNY lecturers and facilitators as my lectures and mentors during our six months Engli

Friend's Roles

  pic taken from https://www.pinterest.com/pin/499336677410646066/ The good thing to be a listener is that you learn new things. Those are things that you are inexperienced. You'll imagine and take a whole story as yours. As you listen, you try to enter the scene and choose to be an actor. The story is not yours but you'll try to answer all the questions which are given to you. Even, you are not giving a clear answer or your answer is complicated.  It's interesting and that is what relationship really is, to share, to give, to care, to help, to be there with someone who trusts you and accepts who you are. 

Kebun Binatang Gembira Loka

Libur telah tiba! Libur telah tiba! Pintu masuk GL (ft koleksi pribadi) Nah, sahabat blogger sekalian, anda dan keluarga pasti sedang senang-senangnya menyambut liburan Lebaran yang sekarang ini sudah dimulai. Saya mengucapkan selamat puasa bagi teman-teman yang menjalankan, semoga berkah di bulan Ramadhan ini semakin bertambah. Menyambut liburan tentu akan sangat menyenangkan untuk membawa anak, keponakan, atau adik-adik kita ke tempat wisata. Banyak pilihan lokasi wisata yang bisa kita datangi di Yogyakarta. Jika anda menimbang lokasi, transport, budget dan jenis wisata yang bermanfaat dan meng"edukasi", kebun binatang Gembira Loka bisa menjadi wisata yang menyenangkan untuk anak anda. Harga tiket Gembira Loka, April 2015  (ft koleksi pribadi) Beberapa waktu lalu, saya dan teman-teman kelas mengunjugi salah satu tempat wisata di kota Yogyakarta,yakni kebun binatang "Gembira Loka". Kunjungan ke sana sebenarnya agak miris bagi saya, karena melihat k

Hi sweet July!

Hi July, a sweet start. I think I am ready for a really fresh new month ahead. Looking back to the past few months, I can say that I have emotionally reached a new phase of life. There were many scenes that I have consciously and unconsciously experienced. Some were actually new, some were routines and the others were "Aha" moments that enlightened my days. source:google images  I have to be really careful with my heart and also my mind. It is now in a kind of sensitive phase which I, myself can not strongly control it. However, I do believe in the powerful of mind which it is said that you can control everything with the powerful mind of yours. Frankly speaking, even your orgasm is contributed by your great mind. Your mind is your king.Then, I am aware that I can gently handle my soft heart in the right way. Though, I have some good improvement in one thing, one I should carefully consider is my tongue. Sometimes, I sounds "bitchy". I am not proud of that

The way to graduate school

Hi bloggers, Now I am on my way back to Yogyakarta from Bandung taking Kahuripan train . I just had my interview & major tests, also the TPA Bappenas source:google images test. #Sigh How was the test? I didn't do it well. My time management was poor at the 2nd type test of TPA. The figurial test was also annoying for me. Hopefully, I can make it to pass the university's requirement. I have to prepare for the worst registering for 2nd chance of TPA,I guess. The Environmental Engineering test and the interview test were quite so so. At least, the interviewers let me answer all questions happily. The worst part was about my carbon-chain grade. #BigGrin I have one conditional letter too from Wolonggong university but the major is Chemistry not the Environmental Science which I had chosen in the first place. Well, I hope things will go right as God had planned for me. However, there was a good event happen this week which it was enlightening my moo

Tips menghadapi tes TOEFL

Berikut tips dan trick dalam mempersiapkan diri menghadapi tes TOEFL yang bisa saya bagi ke teman-teman. Sumbernya dari pengalaman pribadi dan beberapa teman. Semoga berhasil mencapai standar minimal skor 500-550(untuk ujian masuk pasca sarjana atau tes dosen dan PNS serta beasiswa :-D). ft:dok.ets.org 1.Biasakan mengerjakan soal-soal TOEFL 1 bulan sebelum tes. Banyak sekali sumber yang bisa teman-teman download di internet. Longman & Baron TOEFL preparation bisa menjadi sumber yang bagus. 2.Pelajari kembali konsep noun, verb, adverb, adjective dan tenses karena pada soal "structure" banyak sekali soal subject-verb agreement. Jika kita sudah paham konsep, kita akan dengan mudah menandai kata yang salah walaupun kalimatnya panjang. 3.Nah bagaimana cara agar kita bisa mengingat dengan baik konsep yang sudah kita pelajari. Pergunakanlah dalam kalimat sehari-hari dengan menuliskannya kembali. Walaupun untuk TOEFL ITP tidak membutuhkan "writing&

Menjadi besar-sebuah puisi

Hujan masih tanpa bau tanah Dan ia rindu pada pulang memeluk ibu dan hangatnya source: http://feelgrafix.com/741938-awesome-nature-wallpaper.html masih dengan ingatan dimandikan air hangat sebelum sekolah Di balik kaca dan sinar matahari satu-satu Ada wajah bapak di sana Mungkin rambutnya sudah memutih dan kakinya mulai lelah Ia tertawa kecil, mengenang bapak Ia masih digendng hingga sembilan tahun Kamu sudah besar nak, sudah besar, sudah besar Adalah rindu kepada ibu ketika tangan mengusap ubun-ubun di tiap malam Aku masih seperti lima tahun bersembunyi di balik punggungmu Adalah rindu kepada bapak ketika tak seorang pun mendengarmu dengan diam Dia selalu tanpa menyela dan membiar mimpi itu jadi tinggi Ah, kamu sudah besar nak!                                                                                                           Yogyakarta, senja                                                                                                             1

People Around

Life is so damn pretty when we share laugh together with friends who see us as the way we are. Sometimes we don't need to try to make fake joke, just . simple smile, nod or even a silent word. I have realized so far that I have met really good people around. They have come & gone for a reason in my life. Each of them has brought something that I can learn. Some stays still, while others don't. As a friend, I am sad to say that I am not a really good one. I am not good to keep friends around with me. I am not good in asking "whats up" thing regularly or to really know all little things which has happened in my friends' life.Although I have my handphone with me, I rarely use it to send a message. Even for my family members. Not because I have forgoten them, I just love to see them when I see & talk to them directly. I'd love to have deep communication when I see them. That' s what an introvert wants, a real conversation. Note : We

How to be great every single day

It's so lovely to send a love to yourself everytime you get up. Slowly breathtaking bring you up to feel grateful for your beautiful life. It's beautiful in its imperfection. An early smile will last entire day. A prayer for those you love is always a nice gift for each of them. Just mind your business and tell your story but be a good listener to friends.Keep in mind that it's not your story to tell. Be a nice company to your friend. -- *Salam baik * *Rosa DP*

Why?

I don 't know why I don't know when I just know that I enjoy every minutes I just know that we share things together For one reason, I just want to be born again I want to be "nude" from all those things we called races, religions, nationality and so on I want to be free from all streotypes I want to be a "real" human that see you as you are, your thought, your sparkling eyes, your companies Who am I? Just a silly girl in this huge world I can do nothing All I know is I don't know how to stop this kind of feeling though I say I am trying.. I know we can't choose with whom we fallin' and as wise words I've heard before, just enjoy and let it be as it is.

#PK27 Jogjakarta Prasetya Mandala

Hi bloggers, how is life? I am doing well lately. There were many highlights moments in my life that I love to share because it was precious.  I am grateful to have experienced it. I want you have good life too, no matter how it is. First one was the #PK27 moment. Finally, after about one month preparation & communication via mailing list, we 124 awardees of Prasetya Mandala met up in Yogyakarta in 9-14 February 2015. I was excited because this was my first time in Yogyakarta & met cool young men for all around of Indonesia. I had planned to go to this warm city years ago when I was in college but that was just nice plan. Our PK activities were so memorable.  We were divided into many Indonesian traditional houses groups.  I was in Betang (named from Borneo traditional house). Our group was so good when it came to teamwork and discipline but not too good as supporters, (hahahhaha). We were so silent but each of us enjoys the time together. I am proud to be
