play = donate

play with words and you gain double benefits. while u become smarter from each word you correctly guessed will come a 10 grains of rice for donation. i guess there's no harm to participate, besides we will feel lighter to know in other part of the world somebody has a chance to eat and enjoy rice just like we do :-) it's in here .

nasib si pipi

i think i'm getting fat, but in a weird manner. seems all the fat run to my cheek! i hardly find myself able to smile wide and it feels heavy too like i carry burden on the left and right of my cheek, hehehe.... i wonder if there is a "timbangan pipi"...
"I believe one of the most important questions any of us can ever ask of ourselves is, 'What and how can I be of service?' … It doesn't take a Harvard degree or millions of dollars to make a difference in a child's life. … It just really takes a commitment and a will to do better." — Oprah

uncommon goods

i found a very cute website . it's an online shop that sells various creative goods for home decor, jewelery (bracelet, necklace, watches), stationery for your office space and everything that you can think of. there is this colourful lamps , cubisto 3D framing system (the picture with a shell and flowers) and big city dream pots . love it -- love it!! :-)

Oenpao - Asian Food

our next breaking fast is in Oenpao . made by accident . we didn't plan to go here. it's just the nearest restaurant we can found and still open (the signboard said it's open up to 22.00 ). **yg lain udah pada mudik kali yah** it's not quite a restaurant-looked. probably more like a sushi bar with high heel chairs and long tables. it has an open area too **no windows no door** so i guess it can be quite noisy during daylight. but we were eating around 9 PM and the street was already quite. we sat towards it and can see the night as a full background. actually we had break earlier with sate padang (dia) and indomie rebus telor (me + a bit help of dia). so we didn't order too many. our reservations: 1. sandwich chicken + mayonnaise 2. sandwich smoked beef + cheese 3. charusi dimsum (dimsum stuffed with chicken and shrimp) 4. swekiaw (another dimsum) 5. chinese tea 6. coke they have other asian menu like bubur ayam, nasi hainan bebek panggang, mie ayam pangsit etc. ...
genap sebulan kerja di sini.

my path

hari ini saya bertandang ke kampus pagi-pagi memberi surat pernyataan yg kemarin belum bermaterai ternyata pagi di salemba tidak begitu ramai dgn mahasiswa saya berlari-lari kecil berusaha tidak menculik waktu kantor namun langkah saya melambat ketika menyadari.. nikmatnya kampus salemba di pagi hari pohon beringin di tengah jalan setapak yang melingkar ditambah kicauan burung yang tak pernah saya dengar di kala malam menjelang kuliah belum lagi taman kecil dengan bangku-bangku seakan mengajak saya untuk duduk dan menengadah melihat matahari terbit yang indah wah, ternyata saya rindu pagi... pagi dimana saya tidak perlu berjalan tergesa-gesa mengejar absen dan duduk di depan layar sembari menggenapkan jiwa untuk bekerja... dan kembali menggenapkan jiwa di malam hari untuk kuliah... sambil melangkah pelan di tengah taman saya berpikir, "why i choose the hard way?" why i choose to have a dual life where u can freely choose one? but then i thought - everything must happen for a...

mahimahi

our next cullinary journey stops at seafood restaurant, mahimahi . i can't state anything less than drooling! it very much. its seafoods are packaged directly from Makassar and other parts of Indonesia that still provide clean environment. during ramadhan you should try to order both place and food prior your arrival to a nticipate crowd and long preparation for the food especially ikan bakar (around 45 minutes). and note that they sell it in ounce . so when we arrive, we have: # 5 ons ikan kueh (too bad the kakatua fish is not available that day, it's the most fave) # 3 ons udang saus singapore # 5 ons kepiting makassar lada hitam [menunya dikombinasiin sendiri berdasarkan info seafood ama saus yg dia punya, soalnya mesen dari telpon. beratnya juga ditebak2 hehehe] with a complimentary of one jug of brown tea and some appetizers. also three varieties of sambal, sambal tomat, mentah, and mangga , which dia likes. We were confused at the beginning because they don't...
