Li-Ma relaxing exericse

Memang stress itu obat yang paling ampuh buat nge-blog! hehehhe,.. tapi not a creative one. Ini ikutin si Dita. Mayan lah, bisa bikin gembira dan semoga yang baca juga gembira.

What were you doing ten years ago?

I was almost 14 years old. I was in the first grade of junior high school. It was quite fun, I remember. I found it so cool to be a junior high school student. New friends, more difficult studies, I was so challenged by it.

What are five things on your to-do list today (atau tomorrow ya? soalnya sekarang uda almost jam 1 subuh)?
Tema untuk besok adalah RELAXING! Setelah assignments, reading books and many things going through, swt

1. Sleeping in. At least, I have to wake up at 9 - 10 o'clock. I really hope I could. I couldn't sleep in lately, because of assignments and stress.
2. Having Lunch at Limoncello! it is a small breakfast-lunch, small cafe, located at the posh side of the Hague. I came across this cafe when I accompanied my classmate, Tina, to the doctor (neurologist). Stefy and I would probably go there to have brunch, or lunch!
3. Reading Rectoverso and drinking cuppa chocolate
4. Watching Gossip Girl or How I Met Your Mother. Just some episodes to ease the pain :)
5. Going to Crazy Piano, at least Prisca and I planned to. We'll see what's gonna happen.

Snack you enjoy?
1. Pringles Original
2. Muesli Bar (with nuts)
3. Cinnamon stick from Aldi
4. Snack a Jack chocolate chips
5. Wasabi peanuts from the Asian stores
6. Banana and oranges
7. Fresh Nuts from the Dutch market, especially when they are still hot. Chestnuts are best in this time of the year.
8. For a heavier snack, I go for Kibbeling met knoflook saus (fried fish with garlic saus) or Broodje Haring (Haring fish with bun) from Hobbema market

5 Places you have lived?
1. Surabaya, East Java - born, grown up, and partly still live there
2. Diemen, the Netherlands - studied there and lived there for 2 years or so
3. Amsterdam, the Netherlands - my second home (or my first)
4. Exeter, Devon, United Kingdom - studied there, worked there, lived there, and dream to go back there!
5. Meulaboh, Nangroe Aceh Darussalam - worked there, lived there, still want to go there

5 things you would do if you were a billionaire?
1. Starting up book cafe di Surabaya. Dimana dijual makanan-makanan homemade, dengan dapur terbuka, dan buanyaaak buku yang bisa dibaca di tempat atau dipinjam. Harga student, alias harga terjangkau. Makanan enak dan dijamin bikin ketagihan.
2. Punya foundation atau organisasi sosial yang empower people, memberikan pelajaran keterampilan memasak, kerajinan tangan, les bahasa inggris dan komputer gratis, memberikan soft loan buat masyarakat Indonesia yang serius pengen memulai usaha sendiri
3. Buka sekolah gratis di Surabaya atau di daerah di sekitarnya! dengan buku-buku lengkap, baik bahasa Indo or Inggris. Guru-gurunya juga well-paid. Fasilitas lengkap. Dan siswa yang berprestasi yang lulus dari sekolah ini berhak mendapatkan beasiswa untuk kuliah di luar negeri.
4. For myself, I would travel all around the world, doing a bit of wisata kuliner, photography trip, and cultural trip. Tak lupa mengunjungi semua toko-toko buku di dunia, dan ngeborong buku!!! Selain itu, pengen juga di tiap negara yang Oma kunjungi, Oma belajar bahasanya.
5. Altho I am not very girly or shopaholic, kalo bener-bener kaya raya, pengen juga bisa shopping di tempat-tempat orang kaya, kayak di Mauritskade (the Hague), di London, Milan or Paris. Trus, di make-up ama make-up artist terkenal. Beli baju langsung dari designernya, yang one of a kind (kayak Blair Waldorf gitu!)

Ah, udah ah! Now sleepy time. Dan besok, bener-bener Re-La-X-ing TIME!!!

What would you do if you could live another life

What would you do if you could live another life just for one day? This line is quoted from "Last Chance Harvey" . I have watched this film twice and still feel so touched everytime I watch it. Kate Walker, the main character in this film, uttered this question to Harvey Shine. In this story, both of them lived a life that is not very happy-chappy. Kate lived in a pathetic, boring life; Harvey in a screwed one. When Kate asked this question, both of them seem to ponder: what if I could live a different life, just for one day, just to try out. This question makes me ponder, too: what would I do if I was given a chance to live any kind of life I want, just for one day? Where would I be? What would I do? Who would I be? Lately I have been thinking about the life I am living right now. Everything is so well-planned. I graduated from high school, went abroad to study, came back home to work, went abroad again to do my master, working in a reasonably good organisation, and going ho

Pluralism: My Version

plu`ral-ism (-noun) condition in which minority groups participate in society, yet maintain their distinctions. Today is Chinese New Year. Being Indonesian-Born-Chinese (IBC), my family has always been taking part in this celebration. No, we were not really doing the rituals, but as a child, I always had fun hunting Hung Bao (small amount of money put in an red envelop). Another memory about Chinese New Year is it was the time when my favorite cousines came from Malang. We would play; and they would possibly have sleepover. It was my childhood. However, I cannot recall what happened when I was slightly older. But I still remember that my mom told me to be an Indonesian. She would say "Nia, you are not Chinese. You are Indonesian." Or she would remind me that I have to respect Indonesian people in spite of their attitude toward ethnic Chinese. She said "We have a confusing story. If we would say we are Chinese, we would be kicked out from this country. Thus we would prob

WSAD? (What Should Ariel Do?)

As a communication expert, we always need to be prepared for crisis communication or disaster management. If a company suffered a bad publication, or when bad things happened, like with BP’s oil spill or Toyota’s cars, the communication people need to work very hard to communicate the right message (while some other people work on to make things right) and to win the public favour again. In theory, companies need to be prepared for crisis way in advance; however not many companies did that. I believe, Ariel had also never thought that such drama would happen, but yeah, here it is, and he has to face it! So, here is my humble opinion regarding what he needs to do to clear the air: Scenario 1: Launch a single/album Celebrities, especially musicians, usually would create a drama or scandal to increase their popularity in order to promote the next movie, single, or album that would be launched. What Ariel could do is to write a song (or an album) as soon as possible and launch it! And thee
