santapan perut di Jogja

i have yet to write about my activities during my recent trip to Jogja. but am too excited to share about the food&drinks that have filled up my tummy during my 4-days stay there ^_^
  • gonna start with... DONUT and CHICKEN CHOP for my 1st day.

Donut J.Co yg menjadi santapan lunch cum tea on my 1st day
and dinner on my 1st day - CHICKEN CHOP

giller kenyang cz mkn donut tu sejam setgh b4 mkn steak. donut bkn sebijik ye, tp 2 bijik, huhuhu... tgh2 mkn steak, perut ku ini meronta2 "saya sudah terlalu kenyang". maka, steak pn x abis. sayang sggh!!!
  • Hari kedua - Jus tembikai (RM0.90 shj), nasi beriyani & chicken tandori.

Jus tembikai yg kt atas tu sgt murah (Rp2500 = RM0.90). dahtu, sedap giller (slurrrrppppp!!!). mkn lunch pn dh agak lewat, around kul4 cmtu. mkn kt kedai Bee's. jgn risau, xde lebah pn kt ctu, wakakakaka. interior restaurant ni sgt cntk, ditambah dgn mknan & air yg sedap. sangaaaaattt la menaikkan selera utk mkn. kami dh too full & mlm tu kami x dinner pn cz perut pn cm ala2 nk kebabooommm je, hehehe.
  • Hari ketiga - aiskrim (sedap), nasi goreng dan chicken masak ape kebenda ntah, cheese cake dan Fresh Juice (lagi).

Dpt aiskrim sebagai pencuci mulut masa lunch lps event pg tu. erm, lunch mkn apa? nasik dan sup dan ayam masak apa ntah dan fish fillet masak apa ntah, janji leh telan. aiskrim??? sedap!!! utk dinner, mkn kt food court kt shopping mall. i had nasi goreng with chicken masak apa ntah. tapi sedap la. mlm lk kitrg cross jln dpn hotel just to buy pineapple juice and strawberry juice. sangaaaaattt sedap!!! (knp saya asyik sebut "SEDAP" je ni? brp kali dh  perkataan sedap tu muncul?) sgt suka sbb air juice tu enak secukup rasa. actually, we had cheese cake earlier. tp, xsempat nk bergmbr dgn cheesecake (too bad). dan we also bought guave juice and soursop juice (juice lagi!!! adakah saya dh OBSES dgn juice?) utk diminum sambil meronda2 di shopping mall. oh ye, lupa lk yg saya minum air cranberry + apple JUICE (lagi?!!!) during breakfast. what the? sah la aku ni dh OBSES dgn juice, hahahaha...
  • Hari keempat - roti dan capuchino dan nasi lemak (dlm flight)

tak sempat nk breakfast kt hotel cz we had to check in at the airport early (flight kul9pg, kul7 dh nk kna ada kt airport). so, mkn la roti yg dh beli the day before dkt mall. tp, xmampu nk amik gmbr roti, huhuhu. minum hot capuchino kt airport lps dh checkin kt airport. konon2 cm xnk mkn dlm flight. tp, tgk nasik lemak dlm katalog dlm flight tu cam sedap je. tak kan nk tgk dlm gmbr je, kn? =) erm... rasa? biasa la, rs nasik lemak la. xkn rs nasik kerabu lak, kn, ngeeee...

what_I_think: akn cuba utk update perjlnan day-by-day kt sana in the next post. Daaaaa!!!

wanna share apa yg BOLEH dibuat kt Jogja dan pe yg TAK (BERAPA) BOLEH dibuat kt sana. ni bkn apa, sambil nk enjoy negara org, kna gk igt lgkh berhati2 ketika kt negara org. alaaa... kesimpulannya, kt mana2 pn same je la. we just need to know how to adapt to the new situation je. OK, read below for some of the points utk apa yg BOLEH dan yg TAK (BERAPA) BOLEH dibuat kt Jogja:-
  • BOLEH amik gmbr dpn rumah yg cntk2. saya agk bernsb baik cz Tuan Rumah xde sangkaan buruk yg saya ni nk mencuri kt rumah dia, hahaha... kalo tidak, abis la gue.
lps amik gmbr kt dpn rumah cantek ni, tiba2... teeeetttt, tuan rumah masuk gate. saya pn buat muka selamba, hahaha :)
lg 1 rumah cntk. tp pukul 6.30ptg wktu Indonesia, dh gelap cm kul8mlm
  • BOLEH amik gmbr dgn bermcm2 public transport kt Jogja.

dlm teksi
erm... tepi keta kuda? iye kwn2, keta kuda pn kira public trnsprt :)
  • BOLEH jln2 dan menikmati jus buah fresh yg sedap giller DAN MURAH!!!
Jus stroberi & jus nenas. sedapppp giller!!! Rp4000= RM1.44 :)
Jus buah semangka (watermelon la tu) Rp2500=RM0.90
  • TAK BOLEH berani2 sgt amik gmbr time tgh berjln2 kt tempt sesak, (s'ada guna hfon or digital camera). SGT MERBAHAYA!!! kdg2 hfon kna rentap/ragut, org tepi2 pndg je. ni dh tak main seluk saku lg dh.
  • TAK (BERAPA) BOLEH nk berani2 sgt naik bus kalo mostly org laki yg ada dlm bus tu. (peringatan berharga utk kaum pompuan.
Kesimpulannya, dkt negara mana pn (even kt negara sdiri) kna sll berwaspada, ok. TAKE CARE :)

Things to bring for my trip (TOMORROW)

Sebagai langkah keselamatan di negara org, telah pun memasukkn ke dalam beg saya menda2 alah yg rs2nye dpt menyelamatkan saya di kala rs cm ala2 xbrp sihat kt negara org...

  • Hansaplast (sgt berguna di kala kaki rasa2 cm nk melecet) (CHECK)

  • Ubat selsema yg tak ngantuk punya (CHECK) **yg dipamer ada 1 biji tp sbnrnye dlm stok ada lbh dr 5 biji

  • Ubat multipurpose utk skt kpale & skt badan (CHECK)
Normally, I would have Panadol Actifast with me as well. Tp rasanye cukup la kot perkakas2 kesihatan yg kt atas tu je for my 4 days trip. oh iyeeee!!! supaya saya tidak akan kelihatan seperti org hilang-akal-hilang-arah-dan-tak-tau-mana-nk-pergi-dan-apa-nk-buat masa cousin saya tgh rehearsal dan juga mengangkat sumpah dlm dewan di hari sebenar (sedangkan saya tau bhw aktiviti mengambik gmbr adalah sgt menjadi kegilaan saya bila g bercuti), harus la juga saya membawa sumthing yg dpt menenangkan kpale dan otak saya. Tapi, xtau nk pilih yg mana satu, huhuhuhu... Tolonggggg!!!

What_I_feel: Selama ni hanya ada experience DITENGOK oleh mak bapak sdiri & mak bapak serta kaum keluarga org lain masa mjls2 convo saya. Tp this time dpt MENENGOK sendiri sebagai wakil kpd mak bapak cousin saya di dalam dewan convo bersama dgn mak bapak serta kaum keluarga org lain, ermmmm... rasa cm aneh, hahahaha...

They just don't get it!

You want to deliver your idea, or even simply want to convince people to listen (really listen) to you but have got problem to communicate with them? You think that they just don’t get what you were saying and you feel frustrated because of that? Then, I would recommend you to read this book - “They just don’t get it”. It’s a simple book to read, plus with the interesting illustration in it that makes the book looks more interesting. What’s important is its contents that highlighted these points:-
  • You don't have to feel bad if people just don't get what you were saying. They just don't get it and that makes you do not get them as well.
  • We sometimes end up saying the wrong things/delivering the wrong idea to others BUT we most of the time do not realize it.
  • Do not simply push the ideas that are delivered by others. Keep an open mind.
  • Do not force others to accept your idea (or whatever it is that you are saying).
Having mentioned the points above, I  strongly recommend you to read this book BUT will not force you to accept my recommendation, hahahaha. But frankly, if you want to improve your communication skill, then this book has got points that you will not want to miss. Two thumbs up!!!

Life goes on...

The past week has thought me about valuing those around me. The whole family is still in learning process to accept the death of my uncle last Thursday (10 June 2010). I was on leave the day before he passed away (Wednesday) and had some plans in mind. However, while queuing to get my Nasi Lemak for breakfast, I received a call from my mom saying that the Dr. has requested family members to come to the hospital because there is not much time left to be with my uncle. I cancelled my plan for that day and dashed to the hospital. Once I reached the room, I saw that most of the family members were there. Since we are a small family (my mother is the eldest among 3, I have 11 cousins whom I consider my own brothers and sisters), the days and nights that we spent together with my uncle and his family at the hospital has created a stronger bond between us. He was totally weak and unable to swallow, which makes it difficult to give him even a spoon of milk or water. The whole family stayed at the hospital until around 8 p.m., praying that Allah will make it easy for him.

The next morning, I received an sms at 9 a.m that my uncle is no more with us. His reason of death was recorded as “Advanced Prostate Cancer”.

It has been 5 days now since last Thursday. The family is still learning to cope with my uncle not being around. We pray that he will be placed among those who are blessed by Allah. Rest in peace…

what_I_feel: do not neglect those you love. appreciate them while they are still with you.

Tahap kesihatan saya

have not been feeling well lastweek. without any prior symptoms, i was down with fever (very bad one, ok!!!) the weekend before. No flu, no cough... just fever. luckily my body temperature did not hit 40 degrees, or i believe i'll be forced to do the H1N1 test. it was very depressing (sgt depress tau!!) cz i was looking forward to spend my loooooonger than usual holiday (i did mention in the previous entry about taking leave from thursday to monday, right?) with various activities. when i was down with fever on Saturday, i thought "it's just about the right timing to be hit down with fever. it's Saturday...i still have tomorrow and monday to recover. can go to work on tuesday, blablabla...". rupenye, demam itu sgt laaaa degil skali utk dipulihkan. i went to work last tuesday, thinking that there's no more fever. However, more symptoms were developed actually... (bad) cough, (bad) running nose yg sgt merimaskan, and (bad) sore throat... as my friend described it in Indonesian language - Radang Tenggorokan (muahahaha). went to the Doctor again after work on tuesday (hmmm... jmp Dr 2X dlm jarak 4 hari, sgt diluarkebiasaan). the Doctor gave me stronger antibiotics, medification for flu, fever, cough, and pain killer. yesss... pain killer to treat my very bad lower-back ache due to (bad) cough, huhuhuhu..

it's a new week today. rasa2 cm dh agak2 sihat. utk menge"test" bhw saya sudah sihat, saya telah membedal air Laici-dlm-gelas-yg-sgt-besar-yg-sgt-penuh-dgn-ais mlm td, hahaha. hari ni sihat kah saya? Alhamdulillah, so far ok lagi. Thank you God for giving me good health :)
