Go to the Higher Level

Dear all...

It is great to see you again. I thank God for everything He has done in my life. I thank Him because I still meet you ^^. I hope that all of us will always be in His guidance. This time, I am going to share my dreams that I have not reached it yet. Please enjoy my writing. :)

I thank God because I am the youngest children of my parents. I thank Him and my parents because they love me so much. I am glad to be a member of my family. I am glad to be myself. I am thankful for the opportunity to reach some of my dreams. And now, I am still in my progress in reaching my other dreams. ^^

I am a girl who have a lot of expectations in my life. My biggest expectation in short period is finishing my thesis and join the graduation ceremony next November. It will be wonderful to finish my undergraduate education as soon as possible. It will be very nice to wear toga in my graduation ceremony. "It is difficult but not impossible" is my motto to reach my dreams. I got it from my Service Program Design Class. It affects me so much.

My next dream is continuing my study to reach profession degree. After that, I will work to teach in a senior high school in Jogjakarta or Jakarta. In reaching profession degree it will take a year. My other dream is having a good position in an office with a good salary too :D. I am planning to apply a position in Departemen Luar Negeri in Jakarta. There is nothing impossible if I give my very best.

After having a good job, as an usual human being, especially because I am a woman, I am dreaming to have a nice family. In order to have it, I have to marry first. I am still praying to God to ask several criteria about my ideal soul mate. I am planning to get married in the next two or four years. I hope so. I will have two or three children. In my dreams, I really want to have twins children, hehehe :D. It will be great if I have twins children. It will be very fantastic ^^. My family and I will live in a nice home where we can share and show our love to each other... :). We will go to church together and serve Him. Wow, it will be very wonderful. I cannot stand to wait for it too long. Actually, it is my long period dreams.

My other expectations are having several businesses. I want to have a preschool and some drugstores. It will cost me a lot but I want to have it. Why do I want to have a preschool? I love children and I love to play with them. I want them to have a good education since they are young. Why do I want to have some drugstores? It is simple. Since I was a child, I wanted to have a drugstore. I wanted to be a pharmacist but I could not be it because of some reasons. But, it becomes a passion to have some drugstores. I love to take care people, I love to help them, I love to heal them. It will be a great job for me.

Yeah, that is my share about my plan to go to the higher level in my life. I hope it will benefit you and support you to reach your dreams. Whatever you want, you will be able to get it if you want to try and give your very best to reach it. Have a great day and God bless you :D.

My Unforgettable Birthday

Hello everyone...
How are you today? I hope you are all great...
Yeah, I want to share about my unforgettable birthday... Actually, I wanted to share my 17th birthday but, the nature wanted me to share another story about my birthday. Please, check it out... :)
This story was happened a couple of hours ago... Last night, I decided to go to Bukit Doa El-Malta in Kaliurang, Yogyakarta. I wanted to spend the last hours of my twenty second year with my Almighty God. I went there with a friend of mine. She was Vivien. She accompanied me there. I believed in her. She was the first person who said "Happy Birthday" to me. Actually, there were several people who congratulated me in Facebook, Twitter, and short message service before her but, I turn the mode of my mobile in silent mode so that I would not be disturbed by the ring of my mobile. It made her became the first person who congratulated me. Thanks anyway... :) I did the prayer and did reflection in the prayer room. I spend my time there. When I shared what I got to Vivien, she listened to me and then she sang "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday, happy birthday, happy birthday to you...". I was surprised because I did not realized the time. It was 00.01am. I thanked her so much. After that, we went back to our bedroom in El-Malta. I checked my mobile and there were several messages and miss called from my beloved friends and family. I thanked them and then I tried to sleep...
I woke up at five am because my alarm rang. I switched it off and continued my sleep. I have talked to Vivien that we were going to go back to Jogja at eight am. So, I still had time to sleep. I just closed my eyes but Vivien called my name and I had to open my eyes. Oh my God, it was already 8.20am... Oh no! She took a bath while I was opening my eyes. I took a bath with warm water because Kaliurang was cold in the morning... After that, we went back to Jogja.
Vivien's home is in Seturan. I rode my motor cycle to ring road way but she said that she wanted to go to saloon in front of my uncle's home. So, I took the way to my uncle's home. After we arrived, she wanted to take a rest for a while. I opened the garage door and planned to park my motor cycle in it. But, when I looked at the back, I saw my friend, Deddy, with his motor cycle. He smiled at me. I gave sign to him to stop and have chat with us. Vivien said that might be he just went back from Awan's boarding house. I did not pay attention to her explanation because it was not really important to me... I opened the door for them and welcomed them to come in. They did not want to come in because of the weather... They said that it was very hot inside, so they wanted to sit outside. Yeah, it was their decision. I took my laptop and my modem, I opened my Facebook, Twitter, and my Yahoomail. Suddenly one of my friends came. He was David. Vivien commented that Deddy and David could not be separated... Vivien, Deddy and David are my closed friends. They were talking outside and I planned to reply all the greetings. But, when I still replied some greetings, Vivien said that there was something outside the garage door. I tried to think positively. I gave her the key and she opened it. She asked my to look at the garbage outside the door. I did not do what she said. And then I saw lights from candles came in. Ribka, Susi, Nanda, and Yoan brought candles and sang "Happy Birthday" to me. They asked me to make wishes before blowing the candle out. I made wishes and then they asked me to sit on my knees on a rock's surface. They said that Jesus did it in Gethsemane so that I should do it. I asked them to pray for me inside the house but they ignored it. They insisted to pray in the yard. I sit on my knees and then they made a circle. We started to pray. I heard some "kresek-kresek" behind me, but I tried to think positively because we were praying. Suddenly they poured out flour, smashed eggs, and pour out icy chocolate milk upon my head... Oh my God... how could it be? Yeah, they were successfully tricking me. They run over to the street. They shouted at me and asked me to take a bath before they prayed for me. I chased them but I could not catch on them at all.
I took a bath and washed my hair. I spend almost 30 minutes to washed my hair. They sabotage my laptop and my modem so that I could not update my status. They asked me to treat them. They would give my laptop and my modem back to me after we had lunch together. Oh God, please helped me. We went to a cafeteria and they ordered their lunch. While they were ordering their lunch, I went to a saloon next to the cafeteria to wash my hair again. After my hair was cleaned, I joined with them and enjoyed my lunch. Actually I planned to do fasting, but the situation forced me to break my fast. After we had lunch, they prayed for me one by one and went to parking lot. It made me to pay the bill. They gave back my modem in the parking lot. They asked me to go home on foot, but Deddy saved me, he drove me home. What a successful story in tricking me... I love you all friends. You are special friends in my life. May the grace of the Lord be upon you... Amen.

My Daily Activities

Hi bloggers... :D It is nice to see you again. This time I am going to tell you about my daily activities. Do not be shock. I will start with my day activities and then will be followed by my night activities. Check it out...

I start my days by opening my eyes. I usually get up at 5.00 and then I pray to my beloved God, Jesus Christ, till 6.00. I thank Him for His kindness and blessing, and ask Him for His grace, mercy and guidance for my beloved family, best friends, colleagues, soul-mate, and of course for myself. At 6.00 up to 6.45 I check my works and assignments, take a bath, and get dressed. And then, I prepare myself to go to work at 6.45 up to 7. At 7 up to 7.20 I go to my office at Bener Street. I work in a preschool which uses American curriculum. My office hour is 7.30 up to 12.00 and if I have a course I will ask permission to my colleagues. I ask permission to them every Monday, Thursday, and Friday. I will be on my way to go home at 12 up to 12.20. After I arrive, I have my brunch at 12.20 up to 13. Those are my daily activities.

My daily activities at afternoon till night are more or less the same hour but different activities. On Wednesday, at 14.00 up to 15.40 I guide some students from Accounting Education Study Program, Sanata Dharma University. I guide them to learn English with my partner. After guiding them in learning English, I go home, wash my face, hands, feet, change my clothes and take a nap for a while, from 16.00 up to 18.00. I wake up at 18.00 and then I take a bath, get dressed, and prepare to do my next activities. If I do not have any course or do not guide students to learn English, I do browsing and chatting with my friends in website. Sometimes, I do shopping or just window shopping to refresh my mind. At 19.00 up to 21.00 I do my activities in church. Every Monday and Saturday, I pray together with my friends. Every Tuesday, I have to follow tambourine training. Tambourine is a musical instrument. It is usually used as a part of drum set. But, I use tambourine as a tool to dance in church. Every Wednesday, I gather with 5 to 10 friends of mine to do FResH. FResH stands for Family Restoration in Home. It is a cell group. In this cell group, I share my experience with my beloved Jesus Christ, share my burden, share my problems, and share everything in my life to my friends and vice versa. Every Thursday I have a meeting or sometimes I do pray with my friends in church. Every Friday I do tambourine training with music, full band music for our mass on Sunday. Every Sunday, I go to mall or movie theater or just hang out wit my friends to refresh our mind. And then, I do my dinner at 21.30 up to 22.30. I usually have conversation with my friends while we have our dinner. I go to bed at 23.00. I pray to God to say that I thank Him very much for all that He has done and that I love Him. Those are my activities from afternoon till night.

I also do my thesis. I must do it. I usually do it in noon or afternoon or when I have break time in doing my activities. Doing my thesis is my priority. It included in my daily activities too.

Those are that I can share to you... Enjoy your daily activities... ^^

Noodlelicious

I want to share one of my favorite foods. For your information, I had to think hard to choose the most delicious food. Actually, this recipe is the favorite recipe of my family. I used to help my mom when I went home. She always cooks this noodlelicious for her children and her beloved husband.

First of all, as usual, I prepared all the ingredients that I need. Five garlic, a spoonful of pepper, a little bit nutmeg, a spoonful of salt, five red onions, an egg, chickens, and some vegetables such as celery and leeks. The most important ingredient was the noodle. Without it, it would not be noodlelicious.

Did you know a kind of noodle which was bigger than the usual noodle? Its size was similar to kwetiau (Chinese noodle) but it was thicker than kwetiau, that kind f noodle that I used in this recipe. A pack of that noodle usually could be consumed by three people. Before I made the seasoning, I used to pour out hot water to the noodle and then I separated the noodle and water. After that, I gave oil to keep the noodle wet. I fried some chickens and chopped cucumbers and tomatoes.

I chopped up the red onions, added a little salt and then fried it. It would be the garnish. Next, I made the seasoning. I mixed some garlic, pepper and nutmeg and fried it with margarine. When the seasoning gave its flavor, I added an egg in it. After that, I pour out water, added some vegetables, sugar, salt, rajarasa sauce and sesame oil. And then, I added the noodle. After five minutes, I added sweet soy sauce or salty soy sauce. If the noodle was too salty, I added sweet soy sauce. When the noodle was too sweet, I added salty soy sauce...

Oh, before serve it, I usually putted the fried noodle in the plate, added it with fried onion, fried chicken, cucumbers, tomatoes, and some chilies. I would never wait for the second calling from my mom when she cooked noodlelicious, ;).

Guess me...

I have two entrance ways. The first one can be seen from lorong cinta and the other one shall be seen from the meeting room of English Language Education Study Program. My first entrance way has a label which indicates the name of my master. Sometimes, my master puts some announcement which is written in post-it-note on me. If you want to see my second entrance way, you should come to the meeting room and then go straight forward until you find the last door. My second entrance way has a purple box which is hung on its body. In that purple box, some seniors will put the draft of their theses in it in order to be checked by my master. That is all about my entrance ways.
I have four windows. They are located next to my first entrance way. My master decorates them with a colorful wrapping paper. The wrapping paper is stuck with glue on the back part of my windows. My master usually uses the front part of my windows as a board to stick her schedule on it. A multifunction place for a creative lecturer.
Inside my place, you will see so many papers, tasks, theses in the bookshelves. There are also some dictionaries in it. You may find some greeting cards from her friends. You will find some decorative item hanging on my wall. There are two bookshelves, two tables, and three chairs inside my room. My place is smaller than the smallest class in this popular study program but it is worth for my master to do all her jobs.
My master is a very busy woman. She is the vice leader in this famous study program. She is a beautiful woman who works for the development of this beloved English Language Education Study Program.
Can you guess me?
