My Hobby and Interest (Part 2)

What a tired day! I have just went back from Sunway Pyramid, had lunch with my friend in Nandos. It’s been long time I don’t eat in Nandos. A half chicken with two bowls of rice and in hot flavor then some glasses of ice lemon tea were my lunch menu today. J Love the chicken in Nandos so much. The flavor is just sooooooo delicious.

Oh yea, I also celebrate my best friend’s birthday in Pyramid. His birthday was some days ago when the tests were going on. That’s why we just celebrate it today. Once more I want to tell him “HAPPY BIRTHDAY DUDE”, may God bless you always and may everything will go smoothly. His celebration was special, incredible, and blast!! J HAHA, okay so now lets get back to the topic, that is still “MY HOBBIES”. Okay so actually get together with my friends just like I have done just now is one of my hobbies. I don’t know why I love to get together but it gives me a lot fun. We talking, laughing, sharing, gossiping, dreaming, and joking when we are together. Those are the reasons why gathering is always interesting. Then yea of course guys also gossiping. Don’t be surprised huh! I’ll tell you that actually I cant just stay at home and do nothing. If there is nothing to do, I prefer to sleep or just go around and chill. I like wasting my time just to talk and sit in the café.

Sometimes I also do my assignment and study in the café. HAHAHA.. I did it so that I don’t feel bored. Okay next thing I love to do is playing an instrument. The one I love the most to play is guitar. I got two guitars here, one is acoustic guitar and another one is the normal one. J Some songs I always play are Hero, Chasing Car, Hotel California, You and Me, and so many others. I prefer slow pop songs rather than other types of music. Even I love hip-hop song but I just need it when I dance. Slow songs make me more likely to feel the song. If someone feels that all the songs I listed above is an emo songs then I’m fine with that. HAHA, it’s all because when I got emo, I listen to that kind of music. :p Oh yea, one of my favorite singers is Enrique Iglesias. He is the one who sings Hero. Hero’s lyric has a deep meaning, that’s why I love it so much. Try to listen to it guys! LOL! The last but not least of my hobbies is watching movie. I’m sure so many of you guys also like to watch movie. I like action, comedy, and animation types of film. Action film because it is always cool and the equipment must be modern. I really like to watch movie that the main actor/actress is smart, talented, and skillful. Comedy film, it is because it entertains me well. Then, animation film always has good film effects, which always impress me. Some of my favorite movies are Ice Age, Alice in Wonder Land, Despicable Me, Iron Man, and How to Train Your Dragon.

Watch movie is always relaxing my mind, HAHA… So, that’s all for today’s blog. I gotta sleep soon and be ready for tomorrow activity. Bye bye… J

My Hobby and Interest (Part 1)

Yeay Saturday has come! I’m gonna enjoy this weekend, relaxing my mind after mid semester exam. Fiuuhhhh, it was tiring and a bit tensed me up but then all was going according to plan. Wait! What kind of plan? Plan to cheat or to copy my friend’s job?
http://www.mrbeanvideos.com/mr-bean/mr-bean-tries-to-cheat-on-math-exam.jpg

HAHA, of course my entire plans about study. All is just about how I manage my time to study. I will tell you how I did study. :p I slept for the whole day and woke up at night around 8 pm. Then I just straightly took a bath and had my dinner. After I finished all, I came back to my room and started to study till morning. I didn’t sleep for the whole night and in the next day I just went to the exam hall. Nice huh? I think none of you study like me. HAHA, it was a crazy way but that’s the only thing I could do to remember the subjects. If I had to sleep before exam going on, probably I would forget all the things I have learnt. Okay so now let’s talking about “MY HOBBIES”, this week topic! So I have one most favorite hobby, which is sleeping. I do it in all my free times. Yea, if sleeping can count as a hobby. LOL, but sorry I was just kidding. I have so many hobbies such as dancing, playing guitar, listening to music, watching movies, and hang out with friends. When I was in Indonesia, I learnt how to do folk dance and Hip Hop dance. May be some of you don’t know what is folk dance. So let me explain, in my country, folk dance also known as traditional dance. It is a type of dance that developed by a group and it is opposed and made up by a choreographer. It has so many varieties as well. I was actually learnt Indonesian folk dance itself. I have learnt “Tari Piring” and “Tari Payung”.

Thanks God! I Won!!

I didn’t really interested about folk dance because it is a dance from ancient times. Instead, I love Hip Hop. :D This time I’m sure that many of you know Hip Hop dance. If you don’t know Hip Hop dance, go and watch Step up the Street 3 or Street Dance. I usually dance with Hip Hop songs as well. Hip Hop dance has various move such as breaking, popping, locking, and even house dance. I used to do break dance, haha, I spin my head, I stand with my hand, and so many things else.

http://www.talentonline.com.au/dance-shows/nacho-pop-break/nate-mendehlson.jpg

If you love dance, you have to try this dance type. It gives you so much fun. ☺ Even in KL, I still do dance. It’s when I go to club. HAHAHA… I used to go to club so much because I love the music and it makes my body wants to move and move and move. The sad thing is I wasn’t able to dance recently because of my activities. I was very busy with college, gym, and works. HAHA… I wish I could join Taylor’s dance club soon. Damn, I have made an appointment with my friends to have lunch together. I have to go now, will tell you more on my hobbies in the second part. ☺ See ya!

Shirmp Fried Rice (Part 2)

Today is coming to an end and tomorrow will be the day I fight for my exam. I have not fully ready, that’s the saddest part. ☹ Another sad part is I got to do all the things alone. Having breakfast alone, studying alone, having lunch alone, having coffee alone, sleeping also alone, all alone just like my blog’s title “Bona always alone” hahaha, but all is okay as long as I’m happy with my life. ☺ I tried to cheer myself up. Sigh!! Since there was no topic chosen for this time and I have no idea at all what to blog, I have decided to share my special fried rice recipe. I know this would be sound so weird and even silly but I seriously stuck again in the moment I can’t think. So many things to do include this blog just make my blood stop circulate to my brain. AGAIN! I was just kidding. Okay, lets get back on track! Actually this fried rice is “SHRIMP FRIED RICE”. I got this recipe from my grandmother. Honestly, this fried rice is really good taste and hopefully you are curious to try to cook it. Then you will find how blast it is!! ☺ Okay let’s start from the ingredients. Here are some ingredients you must prepare.
1. ½ - 1 cups rice (remember cooked rice huh! Not the uncooked one, hehe :p)
2. 10 – 15 small shrimps (actually depend on your need and desire)
3. 1 onion (chop it!)
4. 1 red pepper (chop it!)
5. 1 egg
6. ½ cup of peas
7. 1 clove garlic (mince it!)
8. ¼ cup of soy sauce
9. Oil (you can use butter instead)

Now lets go on how to cook it.
1. Firstly put aside the cooked rice in the small pot
2. Then take a medium-sized frying pan and start to sauté the chopped onion and chopped red pepper. Oh yea put the ½ cup of peas as well. After done it, set aside
3. Next, sauté 10-15 small shrimps with 1 clove garlic in the oil. When the color looks like light brown, mix it with the vegetables.
4. Then after some minutes, mix the mixture in frying pan with the rice in the pot. Quickly scramble 1 egg and add it on the mixture as well. Don’t forget to add ¼ cup of soy sauce (for sure use your own feeling or preference ☺)
5. The last one is stir and simmer it for a few minutes
6. Don’t forget to ENJOY it!!!

This is what it will be looked like.

http://www.friedricerecipe.net/images/FriedRice.jpg

It’s a very simple recipe right? Not much ingredients you need and no hard steps to cook it. Oh yea, I have some tips in order to produce the delicious fried rice. Remember to always using leftover rice that you might have in the fridge instead of fresh cooked rice. If the condition forced you to cook the fried rice with the fresh cooked rice, then you have to wait until the rice is cool and dry out a bit. It’s all because if you cook the fresh rice that still moist and steamy, you will end up with a fried much pile. So that is all from me for today. Wish my recipe would be useful for you all. Good night ☺

Hello (Part 1)

Hello, hello, hello… ☺
How are you guys today? I feel so much better since I was a bit sick some days ago. Hmm, I am actually damn confused what to blog about because no topics are determined for blogging. Haizzz.. =.= So I decided to blog about my daily life, the simplest thing I can write, haha.. Hell yea the problem now is I didn’t do many things in these past few days. I spent a lot of my time just to chill and relax.

http://bluebuddies.com/gallery/Black_and_White_Smurf_Pictures/jpg/Smurfs_Picture_Lazy_Smurf.jpg

I thought that I was the laziest creature in this whole world, LOL! :p I spent most of the time in the class and just to sleep, my favorite activity. Oh yea, next Monday is mid semester examination and I have just started studying like two days ago. Some subjects were a bit hard to be understood so I put more efforts on it. Do you have any idea why I have to put more efforts? Because when the lecture explain the subject in front of the class is the time when I do daydreaming. So I need to flashback what lecture has told me before. HAHAHA….!!! Of course I was just kidding! Unluckily, the subject is such as a heavy thing to carried out. That is the appropriate reason why I have to spend extra energy to learn. Another thing I can do besides studying is wishing myself and all my friends pass in this exam. ☺ Damn! I don’t know what to share again. It was totally crap for me, hahaha… Stressful is part of my college life, started from my previous college life. ☹ Many more assignments to finished and some exam are always tensed me up. I don’t know why but I feel that the deadline time is always chasing on me. Moreover it is all not an easy thing to do. I got to think hard to get the satisfactory results. It makes me remember one meaningful phrase “no pain no gain”, which has meaning that a man has to work hard and feel discomfort in order to achieve a success. What a motivated word for me!! ☺ Yea, do you know what I am doing right now? Studying while blogging. Impressive things huh? Doing two works at the same time. In fact, studying is always boring and I got nothing else to do so I decided to write my blog. Filling my free time to do something useful, lol! The time isn’t free at all, always in my mind that the exam is just in the next two days. Huaa, want to beg to Taylor to cancel mid semester exam, hahaha… Craziness mode on! All is just messed up on my mind and being crazy is the only medicine to heal my stressful. :p Oh God, please give me motivation or energy or spirit or whatever it is to inspirit me. The most important thing I ask from you is to guide me on the exam. ☺ Please God and Amen! Stress, stress, stress please go away!!

http://www.budakhitam.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/stress-main_Full.jpg

Go far away from my life! Oh NO! The stress is still staying here, :’( Okay then I will end today’s blog and gonna play my guitar to relieve my stressful. Bye bye ^^

More Tips on Healthy Life (Part 2)

Morning guys! How are you doing? I’m doing good but I don’t feel that well since yesterday. I guess I’m a bit sick so I stopped my activities including go to gym. Yea, talking about gym, I remember that I still want to share some tips on healthy life to you all. I wish that the tips that I have been shared in the first time would be helpful for you. I was actually just want to share my experience on my diet so far. Here I would like to give some explanation about snack in the healthy way, drink more water, eat diary, drink tea and take a daily walk.
1. Snack in the Healthy Way
It is really suggested to have five or more serving fruits and vegetables a day to balance the diet. By eating some fruits and vegetables, the benefits that would be attained are decrease the chance of having cancers, against the chance in aging, improve our memory, increase the health of the heart, and the last is build up the immune system. Concentrate on having fruits and vegetables will really improve our health because it contains a lot of nutrients, calories, and vitamins. In order to combine fruits and vegetables into our diet is by making it as a snack. For example are baby carrot, low fat yogurt, and nuts. Oh yea, the best time to having snack is when you feel hungry between meals.

2. Drink enough water
Water is the most important and necessary fluid for our body. It helps people to stay away from dehydration. Beside that, water also has function to regulate body temperature, facilitate digestion, remove toxins inside the body by perspiration and urine, and prevent dry skin. It is highly recommended to drink water at least one liter per day but then something to note is drink more water in the day and less at night.

3. Eat Diary
Dairy is the extract and process of animal milk such as cows, goats, sheep, and horses. The dairy product could be milk, butter, and cheese. The advantages of having dairy are to get strong bones and teeth. Beside that, having dairy also will prevent high blood pressure, colon cancer, kidney stones, and heart disease.

5. Take a daily walk
Walking is also a type of exercise that will not take your time just to be spent on it. Walking can be done anytime even when we are busy with our jobs. For example we walk when we are talking in the phone, sweeping the floor, or when we brushing our teeth. The fact of walking is 20 steps that we take will burn 1 calories inside our body. Another fact will be a man who take a walk for 30 minutes a day will have a very small chance of premature death compare to somebody that never do exercise.

Happy Eid Mubarak!

Happy Eid Mubarak! :)

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3013/2893892107_33999f0c4d.jpg

Today is Friday, September 10, 2010, the day which is actually a blessed festival of Eid ul-Fitr for Muslim all around the world. Firstly, I want to wish all my Muslim friends here “Happy Eid Mubarak”. May God always bless you in this holy and auspicious day, and may it be a new beginning for better life. I wish you all health, success, and happiness as well. Even though I am not a Muslim, I still want to appreciate it. This festival is celebrated after 40 days of fasting has been implemented. In this festival, Muslim usually exchanges greeting like “Eid Mubarak” toward one another after performing the Eid prayer. They realized all the mistakes and sins they had done and then they request for forgiveness each other. Practically the sins they have made was cleansed as the result of implementation of fasting. They also visit their family in order to celebrate Eid ul-Fitr day. This is one type of a tradition that sometimes has to be done among them. In my country, all the Muslim who works in the capital city usually come back to their hometown to gather together with their family. So it really affects the traffic flow because it become so crowd and so many accidents happen in this time. However the government has repaired the damage road, still kilometers of traffic jam happen every year. Beside that, in the form of government concern to the Muslim employees, they mandated a rule to give a salary bonus. Yea, I don’t really understand the Eid ul-Fitr tradition in Malaysia but I am pretty sure that it is not really different with Indonesian tradition such as greet each other, forgiveness request, and come back to hometown. I see that most of the offices and banks are closed same as what happening in Indonesia. Last night on my way back home, I got stuck in the road then I realized that it was a takbir night where the sounds of muezzin chanting in the mosques. Yesterday night, I also saw so many oil lamps lit up outside the houses. Oh yea, I just remember I got one bunch of glutinous rice cake from my Muslim neighbor. In my place, they called the cake as “ketupat” or “lemang”.

https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHFzZ6e-IcQl2741W5_zwWUDw-OFFHOtUUm3cH0e_xrOCrmDOnRt2xF96YOG4lVnP7oAzhbLt_3BT-ll7tDeZoXshAKXAFjiq7_j2KJoXR9n2a3GGnr2gkT9pvQg_r7nYWKw9_GgIsbZE/s1600/800px-Ketupat2.jpg

They wrap the glutinous rice cake with the coconut leaf. Glutinous rice cake is one kind of traditional and special dishes in this festival. The last thing that grabs my attention about this festival is the traditional clothes. Most of the men and women are wearing that outfit. For men, they call the clothes as “baju koko” or “baju melayu” in Malay language. Baju koko is a collarless shirt with long or even short sleeve. It usually has embroidered design and added with a kilt sarong. Men have to wear a “peci” (traditional headwear). In this modern period, men can also wear western businessman suits as an alternative option. Beside that, the traditional clothes for women is familiar as “baju kebaya” in Indonesian or “baju kurung” in Malay language. It is a combination of loose-fitting blouse with brocade or broidered, long skirt that usually batik, and hijab. There are many things are interesting about Eid Mubarak and it must be maintained well. So, once more I wish you “Happy Eid Mubarak”.

Colors of Malaysia (Part II)

Here it is the Colorful Malaysia part two!! Here, I want to write again about Malaysia, the country where I gain knowledge. This is to continue of the unfinished part one. If in part one I wrote about the nation flag and races, here in the part two, I want to write about the tourism and the food. Malaysia is a developing country which also famous in its tourism. So many places can be visited here, such as Genting High Land, Petronas Twin Tower, Langkawi Island, Redang Islang, Bukit Bintang Walk, Malacca, and Sunway Lagoon. Genting High Land is the entertainment place, which located in the top of the mountain. The weather there is really cold and foggy. There are so many hotels in Genting but I wonder if it is always full in the weekend and in the holiday time. Genting is a really well known place to play gamble. So many Chinese who play gamble everyday. In Genting, there is also a big shopping mall and theme park, which is provided for children.

This is Genting Highland looked like!
http://gamawisata.com/en/foto_produk/27genting%20highland%20KL.jpg

Beside that, Petronas Twin Tower and Bukit Bintang Walk is a shopping area. Here the tourists can find anything even the traditional food. I really suggest for every shopaholics to visit them. Oh yea, there is one area called China Town in Petaling Street. China Town is always popular all over the world remember that so many Chinese people spread in Malaysia.

China Town!
http://hotel-malaya.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/dscn0240.JPG

While Langkawi and Redang island are the nature and beautiful panoramic beaches. The tourists can try water sport, spa treatment, and enjoying the nature as well. Then about Malacca, it was actually the first place where the white people come to Malaysia. Malacca used to be a center of spice trade when the colonial time. Nowadays, it is very rich of cultures, heritage, and diversity. There are so many ancient buildings in Malacca that built long time back and now become a tourist attraction. The last one is Sunway Lagoon, it is located in Subang Jaya area. This place provides entertainment and pleasure for tourists. There are some hotels there and one big shopping mall. There is also a theme park like in the Genting and so many clubs for clubbers. Tourism area has major contribution in making Malaysia more colorful. It attracts the tourists to come and enjoy Malaysia with its uniqueness.

Then go on to the food part. I seriously really like to eat nasi lemak, Malaysian traditional food. It usually served with fried chicken and chili sauce. It is damn nice and every tourists got to try it!! There are three major races in Malaysia, which are Malays, Chinese, and Indians. Those races are really influencing the type of the food in Malaysia. The elements of how they are cooking are blended together. That is what makes Malaysia is so unique and exquisite. The most common cuisine in Malaysia is about rice and noodle and sometimes in spicy taste. The most famous local fruit here is durian, which has a very pungent aroma.

Nasi Lemak!! hungry ~

http://www.1bestcuisineguide.com/images/oriental-cuisine-nasi-lemak.jpg

Beside all of that, Malaysian food considered as high fat content and it will risk the health. So because of that, most of Malaysian will cook at home only. Oh yea, Malaysia’s diversity also can be seen from some prohibitions in food. Muslims are not allowed to eat pork, which is really popular and loved by Chinese. Then Hindus cannot eat beef, some Buddhists are vegetarian, and Muslims cannot drink alcohol. So in the nutshell, Malaysia is really diverse.

Colors of Malaysia (Part I)



https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUh6wzC4z73DDssemZ4U1vi_6GC8Ct4o3fMlotVKOogMRXoSjq2qAz34I6Ta16tYWY6RgEYHm7iyWNIknc-Sg606lTftDgfd8FCu2s2H8ES7lNZ6AFBu9lgINg6NtkzCs6VrIrRtCaFBE/s400/jalur+gemilang.jpg

Afternoon every one, I have just woke up from my sleep :) . To be honest, I am on my holiday right now. I come back to my country for a week. Yesterday I was leaving Malaysia at 6 in the morning. Yea talking about Malaysia, I like Malaysia so much. It is just so rich, various and interesting. I can see it from the pattern and the color of the nation flag and the people. I was so curious with the meaning inside the Malaysian flag so I decided to find this out and this is my research so far. The flag of Malaysia has three basic colors, which are blue, red, and white. The blue color represents vigilance, truth and loyalty, perseverance and justice. Beside that, blue color also represents the symbol of unity of Malaysia people. Blue color itself was adopted from British Union Jack and it represents the link between Malaysia and British as well. Then the red color represents hardiness, strength, bravery and valor. Last but not least, white represents the peace and honesty. Inside the blue square of the flag, there is a crescent and star imagery, it actually represents Islam religion. Then it is in the yellow color, which is a traditional royal color.
Beside all of that, there is one part that really grabs my attention. This part is the fourteen horizontal stripes of red and white. It is started with the red line on the top and continued by white line run down the flag. The fourteen stripes represent the equal status in the federation of the state and federal government of the thirteen member states of the Malaysian federation and the Federal District of Kuala Lumpur. As long as I know this flag is named as “Jalur Gemilang”, in English is “Glorious Stripes”. It was named by Prime Minister Tun Mahatir bin Mohammad. What a fabulous name! Continue to talk about the race, there are three major races in Malaysia which I am pretty sure everyone knows about it already. Those three major races are Malays, Chinese, and Indians. Firstly is about Malays. Malays are the largest population in Malaysia compared to Chinese and India. Mostly, all of them are Muslims and work as farmers and fishermen. They speak the national language, which is Bahasa Malaysia and it is really similar to Indonesian language. In my point of view, Malays are physically looked like Indonesian people. It can be seen from the color of the skin, their faces, and their eyes. This is the example picture of malays.

This's my friends. The black T-shirt named Malik and the girl named Amalina!
(Sorry I made this picture as an example :D )

Then the second one is Chinese. Chinese is the second largest population where nowadays become the power of the economy in Malaysia. Chinese was actually come to Malaysia in the 15th century and mostly from Fujian and Guangdong. They have some dialects such as Hokkien and Cantonese. They also have some traditional culture such as Lion dance, Dragon dance, and Ang Pow. Recently, Chinese are English educated. They can speak English with their Chinese dialects in between. Most of them are well educated and involved in the business sector of Malaysia. And this is the example of Chinese.


Khan Yean Thoong
(Sorry I made this picture as an example :D)

The last one is Indians, they were originally from southern India and mostly speak Tamil. Their religion is Hinduism. They involved in the business sector of Malaysia, such as in restaurant that well known as “mamak stall”. Their traditions are really tied with the religion, for example during Deepavali (their Hindu festival) they will perform some rites and visit temples. I have seen a very big Indian temple in Batu Caves on my way to Genting High Land.

This is my friend in my previous college.

This is all about the Colorful Malaysia part one ;)

College Life!

It's Me!
* If you don't know my face x)


Hey! It is already 6.06 PM and I have just finished taken a bath. Actually, I have been in Malaysia for one year. I used to study in one private Information Technology university, which is located in Bukit Jalil. It’s name is APIIT/UCTI. I did my foundation there for a year but then I found myself not suitable to study business, even IT. So, I decided to move to Taylor University and study Mass Communication and HERE I AM! J My life here is much more interesting. Start from a great orientation, great friend, and now great classes. I had a good time in the orientation, such as in the city tour and in the party. I have never had this kind of orientation before. Even in my previous college, the orientation was just so boring. Here, it was really fun and nice. I really like it!! Oh yea, Taylor’s building is just so big, I got to get used to it. I tried to remember all the classrooms and all the divisions, haha, so I will never get lost here. It will really ashamed me if I get lost.

Check this out! This my new university look like !



This's the canteen

Beside that, I met so many new friends here, they are so mixed. First time I was shock because at Malaysia there are a lot of people come from different country and different race. As I know, there’re three main race in Malaysia; Chinese, Indian and local or people usually call them Malay. Then many of them come from Kazakhstan, China, United Kingdom, Africa, Singapore, Uzbekistan, and Indonesia as well. I knew so many friends from Medan and Jakarta here. It was actually made me feel home, haha… Anyways, people that I meet from different country have their own different to recognize them. Haha…for example, Chinese people have a bit yellow skin and slanting eyes and the size of their body a bit shot. Different from Indian people and another people. By this I mean that every race have their own characteristic/ specific things with them so it’s look different from each other. J

We All Different but We All still Can Smile !Blockquote

In class, everything can happen. Stupid things... Maybe when friends in good mood or boring. And as students this always happen......

Yea!! Sleepy!! Do Assignment till the end of night. ! hahaha :p (Sorry dude, I post your picture for example! )

I did not really surprised with this mixed race because I have seen most of them in my previous college. Until today, I find that they all are good friend. May be sometimes there is a little misunderstanding among us, it is just because of different culture, behavior, and language. We just have to understand each other and communicate well. Then yea, for the language that mostly using English for communication, I am still trying to familiarize myself with it. I am still making a lot of mistakes because I used to speak in my native language. L Hmm, but all is okay as long as we want to learn. For the classes those are going on, I think that so far is good. I still can understand every chapter that the lecture taught me, just nowadays so many assignments to do. I wonder why it happens so even though I have just started my study here. Sometimes I have to go to bed very late just because I have to finish my assignments. Then the next day I just feel sleepy inside the class, lol! Oh yea, sometimes I also find that the assignment is a little bit hard. I have tried hard to do it but when I get stuck in the situation, I prefer to ask my friend to explain me. I wish that I could do all the assignments well. Wish me luck, God. and Enjoy College Life Friends!!!
