EURO TRIP

Well I should have posted this like 6 months ago, but literally don't have enough time and willingness to write so yeah end up today after I got back from another conferences that I attend which I will write this later in another post.

Back then, long ago when I was an exchange student in USA, the peacezarrasauds (me, my host sister and her friend) plan something about our marriage and honeymoon kinda thing. And what I always have in mind is having Euro trip for my honeymoon. Guess what, God grant my wish faster than I thought, I finally got chance to do the trip.

Well yeah, it's because I extended my trip before and after EAMSEP in Croatia. I'll just expressing my feeling towards each city and country that I visited because I nearly forgot all of the places  that I've been.

ITALY
Venice and Rome

We manage to visit a lot of places even though in a short period of time. Every sight seeing in Venice and Rome are distant walk so we can easily reach every places by walking (although you kinda like really exhausted to walk and hardly feel your legs by keep walking and walking though -_-).
They said that we have to be careful of the pick pockets around us in the Metro or in touristy places where it can get so crowded but thankfully nothing happened and we're safe during our stay :) People and the weather are nice there not to cold and you can feel the warmness of the Sun I think because it is around the area of Mediterranean and southern part of Europe. The ancient architecture felt so magical specially during the night, it feels like a bunch of building scattered around everywhere to please our eyes :) The gelato was also so nice with lots of different flavour, I tried the panacotta one. From Rome to Venice we tried the night train and it was funny because the compartment was so small and hardly fit our huge luggage and note to ourself, don't ever bring that kind of luggage if you want to travel around europe next time :). Well I know, better to go during spring or summer so that you can bring light cloth, not heavy winter jacket with wool and all of that stuff.

CROATIA

AUSTRIA
Vienna and Salzburg

I am so into classical music Austria is the birth of many composers such as Mozart, Haydn and Franz List. I was so happy I got a chance to watch the orchestra, ballet and opera singer there, and also the music museum (Haus der Musik). The city of Vienna was also really nice, I could say it's the most beautiful city in Europe where I've been to. The street was huge and everything placed properly while the architecture of the building was majestic. Although during the trip we haven't manage our time efficiently so we kinda waste our time climb the stairs up in Stephandsom chruch and therefore we haven't got enough time to enter the massive Schonbrun Palace because the admission was already closed :( It was literally a huge castle and would take one full day to explore around. The only bad experience I've got during my visit was when we firstly arrived in Vienna there was a lady who being so racist toward the Muslim and she pick on me because I was wearing hijab, so then the next day I decided to only wear the winter hat so not to be the center of attention but turns out I've seen some people wear hijab too, so I guess it's just that only lady who being so insecured and racist.
In Salzburg, I felt young again and cherish the childhood memories by taking the Sound of Music Tour. The tour guide was so lovely and warm, he reminds me of Mr. Hugh McMullen (my Local Coordinator of my USA Exhcange Program). We kept sing along in the bus while looking out the beautiful scenery of Alps along the way.

Poem Collection from 7 Habit Highly Effective Teens from Sean Covey

#1: Who am I?  I am your constant companion. I am your greatest helper or heaviest burden. I will push you onward or drag you down to failure. I am completely at your command. Half the things you do you might just as  well turn over to me and I will be able to do  them quickly and correctly. I am easily managed--you must merely be firm with me. Show me exactly how you  want something done and after a few lessons  I will do it automatically. I am the  servant of all great individuals and, alas, of  all failures, as well. Those who are great I have made great. Those who are failures, I have made failures. I am not a machine, though I work with all the precision of a machine plus the intelligence of a human. You may run me for a profit or run me for ruin--it makes no difference to me. Take me, train me, be firm with me,  and I will place the world at your feet. Be easy with me and I will destroy you. Who am I? I am habit #2: Man in the Mirror I'm starting with the man in the mirr

Excerpts from Teman Imaji

Kotatsu: Kopi atau Susu K: "Menurut Mas, ya, lebih enak mana. Lampu merah yang ada penghitung mundurnya. Atau yang tidak? B: "Hmm.. Dengan penghitung mundur. Supaya sambil menunggu, bisa melakukan hal yang lain. Kalau waktunya sudah dekat, bisa bersiap dan bergegas." Kalau kau? K: "Tanpa penghitung mundur. Menunggu jadi seru saat kita tak tahu kapan akan berakhir. Kita akan menghargai setiap detik penantian." B: "Masa?" K: " Iya. Nilai sesuatu lebih berharga saat kita belum memilikinya. Atau, sudah tak memilikinya lagi." B: "Kan, lebih enak kalau tahu semua kenyataan. Apa adanya," K: "Kadang tak tahu, lebih baik dari tau. Lebih baik daripada tau sesuatu tapi tak jujur. Atau tau setengah-setengah, tapi ujungnya kita salah menduga. Atau yang jujur, tapi terlalu pahit." B: "Saya menyimak" K: " Allah itu Mahacanggih. Nggak semua hal dikasih tau ke kita. Karena kita belum siap tau kenyataannya

A Tale of my Two used to be "Friend"

  Ternyata cerita drama atau sinetron itu klo kejadian ke diri lo sendiri itu lebih sakit adanya ngejalaninnya. Gw mau cerita ttg dua orang yang "dulunya" pernah jadi temen gw. Yang satu temen gw di sekumpulan grup pecinta alam yang suka naik gunung bareng. Pernah kerja bareng di suatu acara intra kampus dengan jadi koordinator bareng. Berlanjut sampe bantuin gw skripsian, ya cukup diandalkan lah buat dimintain tolong buat sekedar jemput gw subuh2 di stasiun kereta atau saling support selama koas yg bikin orang vulnerable karna jauh dari orang tua dan tuntutan kerjaan yang bikin lelah hati dan pikiran. Oh tapi ga cuma2 jg dong dia bantuin gw karena yg ada jg dia butuh gw, tiap stase pinjem buku gw, pinjem alkes pun dan ga lupa jg minta operan stase pdhl kita stase bareng aja gapernah jadi senior junior stase jg ga pernah. Entah itu modusnya buat selalu ada bahan ngobrol sama gw atau main bareng gw atau emg simply dia ga modal aja anaknya. Sempet dikecewain karena ternyata pa
