B.A.L.I

Wow.. I said before that my next post will be when i'm in bali..tp ternyataaaa..gw ga sempet buat ngeblog sama skali.hehehe...

Hmmm for the past 5 months have been soooooo AMAZINGGGG.. Many memorable things i won't forget.. Dari awal gw sampe bali until the day i returned to Jakarta on 6febuari2010..
Feli,olin,ari,adi, and si pendatang baru rendy..we're practically family..with them we explored bali together..

Btw, we lived in tuban,kuta.. Amat sangat dekat dengan Ngurah Rai Int'l Airport..ya secara my first 3 months training was at the airport, in Jetstar Airways to be exact.
And then me and olin moved to Wita Tour, it's not because we didn't like work at jetstar, but because we tried to find something new and to dig more valuable experiences.. Anyway, Jetstar is the best for me.. In fact,me,olin and adi had a great time there.. Many thankz to pak bambang..

I got many valuable experiences in my 5 months training.. But the most unforgetable thing was the way we have fun there.hahaha.. Banyak kenangan2 yg ga akan bs terulang lg, mungkin kita bisa balik ke bali lagi, but it will never be the same again..we just can keep it all in our memory..

Selama 5 bulan dsana, many unfortunate things happened to me, jatoh dr motor yg lukanya msh berbekas sampe sekarang, then lost my wallet in the mall yg akhirnya buat gw ribet ngurus ktp atm sim dan stnk motor orang,dan harus berurusan sama polisi untuk buat surat laporan kehilangan, but thankz god polisi di polsek kuta itu ternyata helpful juga,urusan gw ga dibikin ribet dan dia ga minta duit sepeserpun.padahal kalo polisi di Jakarta mah uda dimintain duit buat administrasi tetek bengek..but that's all give me a damn sweet memory.. Well still many things i can't mention in one by one,it will spend me more than a week to write.hahaha..


Kita pindah kost 2x.. Yg pertama di jln nusantara, lalu the last di jln mandala,which gave us many challenges and sweet memories, and many new friends.. Kadek,eka,indah,mas nana,ka dika,adit,bli wayan,mama eka,bu debby,pak de,mama. Oh almost forgot, there's one dog i loved so muchhhh..it's rossa..ughh miss them ALOTTTT!!!
Ps: kadek,makasih buat hello kittynya yg super duper big itu yak.hehe..


Bulan bulan terakhir gw di bali we always had a trip to somewhere every sunday,cos it's the only day in a week we have a full time holiday together,don't forget to mention thariq,kyky and ibad.. We did many trips together.. They're our friends from the same school as we are, but they came from padang, and our friendship started in Bali.. The greatest trip for me is when we went to Lovina,through gitgit and bedugul.by motorbike.imagine how far that was..it's really tiring but we do have lots of fun..

When i write this post, the rest of my friends except me and olin, are still there doing their training..training gw uda slesai tgl 30januari2010..mereka baru akan slesai tgl 25 febuari2010..and on 2march,they will come back to Jakarta.. I wish the very good luck for them, kita jumpa lagi di Jakarta kawan.. :)


It such a great 5 months for me..and every time i think of it always make me wanna turn back the time to 5 months ago where we first arrived in Bali..yeah, dream on stefanie!

The day is 24th August

Hmm..it's been a long time since my last post..many things happened..actually i'm not in the good mood for writing right now, but i'd like to share a bit about what i'm doing now..

These days i kinda have an exited feeling before my departure day to Bali..been waiting for that day since i don't remember when..It's going to be on 24th August..depart at 9.35am..
I will do a training program in Qantas Airlines at Ngurah Rai International Airport Bali..
My training program will be held for 6 months..since 31st August 2009 - 27th February 2010..

As a trainee, many things need to be prepared,especially my mental, and i'm also kinda nervous waiting for 31st August...I'm wondering what will it be like in the next 6 months in Bali...surely i'm going to miss my family, my friends, my dog, my house, and of course i will miss him alot..

My next post will be written in Bali.. =)

Gob Bless Me for my 6 months training.

Good Bye Mr. Jacko

Actually i'm not a huge fan of Mr. Jackson.. but i still adore him for his talents..
I remembered my childhood, cos when i was a little, my dad often talked about him..he was so popular back there..

I'm sure lots of his huge fans out there is mourning now for their lost of Mr. Jackson.. Our King of Pop..
Well, physically he may not be here again, but his masterpiece will be here with us forever..

This is the articles about Michael Jackson which i got from the internet.

Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) was an American recording artist, entertainer and businessman. The seventh child of the Jackson family, he made his début onto the professional music scene at the age of 11 as a member of The Jackson 5 in 1969, and later began a solo career in 1971 while still a member of the group. Referred to as the "King of Pop"in subsequent years, his 1982 album Thriller remains the world's best-selling record of all timeand four of his other solo studio albums are among the world's best-selling records: Off the Wall (1979), Bad (1987), Dangerous (1991) and HIStory (1995).

In the early 1980s, he became a dominant figure in popular music and the first African American entertainer to amass a strong crossover following on MTV. The popularity of his music videos airing on MTV, such as "Beat It", "Billie Jean" and "Thriller"—widely credited with transforming the music video from a promotional tool into an art form—helped bring the relatively new channel to fame. Videos such as "Black or White" and "Scream" made Jackson an enduring staple on MTV in the 1990s. With stage performances and music videos, Jackson popularized a number of physically complicated dance techniques, such as the robot and the moonwalk. His distinctive musical sound and vocal style influenced many hip hop, pop and contemporary R&B artists.

Jackson donated and raised millions of dollars for beneficial causes through his foundations, charity singles, and support of 39 charities. Other aspects of his personal life, including his often changing appearances and eccentric behavior, generated significant controversy which damaged his public image. Though he was accused of child sexual abuse in 1993, the criminal investigation was closed due to lack of evidence and Jackson was not charged. The singer had experienced health concerns since the early 1990s and conflicting reports regarding the state of his finances since the late 1990s. Jackson married twice and fathered three children, all of which caused further controversy. In 2005, Jackson was tried and acquitted of further sexual abuse allegations and several other charges.

One of the few artists to have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice, his other achievements include multiple Guinness World Records—including one for "Most Successful Entertainer of All Time"—13 Grammy Awards, 13 number one singles in his solo career, and the sale of 750 million records worldwide. Jackson's highly publicized personal life, coupled with his successful career, made him a part of popular culture for almost four decades. Michael Jackson died on June 25, 2009, aged 50. The specific cause of death has yet to be determined. Before his death, Jackson had announced a 50-date sell-out This Is It comeback tour, in London, England.

I dedicated this post for him, to recall what's left of him...

Goodbye Mr. Jacko..We'll miss u..

Gone With The Wind

I just watched one of the old and legendary movie, guess what??

Gone With The Wind.
Surprisingly, i incredibly loved this movie so much..


Gw bakal copy paste aja ya dari wikipedia tentang Gone With The Wind ini sendiri.

Gone with the Wind adalah sebuah novel Amerika karya Margaret Mitchell yang diterbitkan pada 1936 dan memenangkan Penghargaan Pulitzer pada 1937. Novel ini adalah salah satu novel terpopuler sepanjang masa, dan adaptasi layar lebarnya yang dirilis pada 1939 berhasil memecahkan rekor jumlah Oscar yang diterima.

Karya Mitchell bercerita tentang kisah seorang wanita berjiwa pemberontak dari Georgia yang bernama Scarlett O'Hara dan hubungannya dengan sahabat, keluarga dan kekasihnya di tengah Perang Saudara AS, serta masa "Rekonstruksi". Novel ini juga bercerita tentang cinta yang tumbuh antara O'Hara dan Rhett Butler.

Pada 1938, kisah ini diangkat ke layar lebar dan dibintangi oleh Clark Gable sebagai Rhett Butler dan Vivien Leigh sebagai Scarlett O'Hara. Film ini mulai diputar di Atlanta, Georgia pada 15 Desember 1939 dengan biaya produksi sekitar US$4 juta, dan hingga kini merupakan film dengan pemasukan terbesar sepanjang sejarah (sesuai perubahan inflasi). FIlm ini mendapatkan 13 nominasi Oscar dan memenangkan delapan di antaranya.

Yup, this film was very damn old.. but unforgetable, and yet the arrogance of Scarlet O'hara still amaze me how she survived from the war and made up her marriage until she realized who's her true love...

Pameran Wisata

hmm.. hari jumat, sabtu dan minggu kemarin gw dapet kerjaan di Pameran Wisata Indonesia yang diadakan oleh Departemen Kebudayaan dan Pariwisata..
Gw dan temen2 gw yang laen ditawarin sama dosen kita, Bu mel.. Kita disuruh dateng ke Sudirman untuk interview, and then a few days later we got the announcement siapa yang diterima. Luckily, gw dan beberapa temen gw diterima.. then, kita briefing dikit, tentang penempatan kita (kebetulan gw dapet di Summarecon Mall Serpong), kerjaan kita gampang cuma ngejelasin ke orang orang yang tertarik sama pameran itu, ya ngemeng ngemeng dikit lah..

Nah pas hari H nya, kita semua bingung harus ngapain.. secara yang ada di hall segede itu cuma ada 3 stand, yaitu Hotel Jayakarta, Batam View dan Vote Komodo..sisanya bangku bangku sama meja... Suer kita bingung, mana pengunjung sepi adem ayem, mereka ga keliatan tertarik sama produk2 yang ada..

Yang gw bingung, orang2 departemen tuh bener2 ga well-organized banget, stand sedikit, brosur terbatas, kurang briefing jadi buat kita kita bingung harus ngapain, apa yang perlu dijelasin pun kita asal ngemeng.. secara kita pas dateng aja cuma dibriefing sdikit banget..and dikasih kaos seragam..

Gw sih ga nyalahin EOnya..mereka pasti cuma ngejalanin perintah dari orang departemen doank..secara garis besar sih kerjaan EOnya fine2 aja dimata gw, orang2nya juga asik2..

Di hari sabtu dan minggu, udah mulai rame, pengunjung yang tertarik uda mulai banyak, yah better dikit lah..

Kacau deh tuh orang pemerintah..

Minggu depan gw gawe lagi di event yang sama, tapi di Citos.. kita liat aja nanti gimana..

Wish

The next 3 days will be hectic for me and my friends. wish us luck.. =)

Otak vs Hati

Kenapa sih manusia dikasih otak untuk berpikir dan hati untuk merasakan sakit? Cos if we dont have any of them, we will feel a lovely thought of what we usually called 'peace.'

Kenapa masalah selalu datang silih berganti, dan otak harus berpikir untuk memecahkan masalah itu bahkan disaat otak lagi malas berpikir sedangkan hati juga jarang bisa membantu...

Kenapa dalam perjalanannya otak dan hati justru lebih sering bertentangan menyatakan apa yang mereka mau,padahal itulah yang malah membuat hidup even more sophisticated..

I just dont get it.

Gotta Go My Own Way

Theres something about us doesnt seems right these days
Life keeps getting in the way
Whenever we try somehow the plan is always rearranged
Its so hard to say
But I gotta do whats best for me
Youll be okay

Ive got to move on and be who I am
I just dont belong here
I hope you understand
We might find a place in this world someday
But at least for now
I gotta go my own way

Dont wanna leave it all behind
But I get my hopes up and I watch them fall every time
I know the color turns to grey and its just too hard to watch it all slowly fade away
Im leaving today cause I gotta do whats best for me
Youll be okay

Ive got to move on and be who I am
I just dont belong here
I hope you understand
We might find a place in this world someday
But at least for now
I gotta go my own way

Heads up

too much in mind recently... All stressed out, and just couldn't stop thinking when it comes to mind..
Try to keep it cool, hold the tears, and walk through it with heads up till it comes..

This film is fully recommended..

Hair Loss

Hair loss always makes people upset when it happens... so do i who also having this kind of problem with my hair..

Here is the thing..
Siklus biasa pertumbuhan rambut tahan selama 2 sampai 6 tahun. Each hair grows approximately 1 centimeter (less than half an inch) per month during this phase. Sekitar 90% dari rambut di kulit kepala tumbuh di satu waktu yang bersamaan. Dan sekitar 10% dari rambut di kulit kepala sedang pada tahap beristirahat. After 2 to 3 months, the resting hair falls out and new hair starts to grow in its place.

Sebenernya normal kalau setiap harinya kita kehilangan beberapa helai rambut yang merupakan bagian dari siklus ini.. Tetapi, beberapa orang mengalami kerontokan yang berlebihan..


Well, untuk itu gw ada beberapa tips untuk mencegah rontok..

• Makanlah makanan yang bergizi terutama yang banyak mengandung protein dan zat besi. Protein sangat penting untuk pertumbuhan organ tubuh termasuk rambut. Sumber protein utama berasal dari ikan, telur, kacang kacangan, yogurt, kedelai dan lain lain.

• Hindari stress karena stress akan menganggu metabolisme tubuh yang imbasnya ke rambut juga.

• Jauhi obat obatan yang dapat menganggu pertumbuhan rambut.

• Berhentilah merokok, kurangi konsumsi kafein. Kedua zat ini tidak baik untuk rambut.
  

• Sisirlah rambut dengan lembut saat rambut masih dalam keadaan agak basah.

• Kurangi penggunaan gel rambut, krim, minyak rambut, pewarna rambut dan spray rambut. Gunakanlah produk yang terbuat dari bahan alami.

• Saat mencukur rambut, sarankanlah tukang cukur menggunakan gunting yang cukup tajam.

• Hindari kebiasaan menarik narik rambut dengan alasan tidak jelas.

• Lindungilah kulit kepala anda dari sinar matahari langsung.

Jika rambut rontok terus sampai tidak terkontrol, konsultasilah ke dokter. Gw dapat tips juga untuk minum ramuan penguat akar...

Bahan :
1 buah pisang besar, kupas , potong - potong 150 ml
yogurt polos 15 ml
madu
es batu secukupnya

Blender semua bahan sampai halus. Segera minum.

the trips..

Like i said before..i have such many great friends... we've been through a lot during these 3 years in college.. Trisakti Institute of Tourism..

too many things i just couldn't forget.. sejak semester 1 sampe semester 6 ini, dan semester depan gw bakal ngjalanin yang namanya training.. Secara gw kuliah major in tourism, i've been through a few trips with my class..dari keliling Jakarta sampe mampus, lalu java bali overland tour, thousand islands 3 days trips , until Flamming Asia tour (Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore) Masa masa kuliah gw itu cukup menyenangkan, apalagi yang gw lalui sama temen2 gw itu..

Terutama waktu kita Java Bali Overland, masa2 susah bareng ngafalin bahan guiding, secara masing2 anak dapet jatah 3x guiding malah ada yang smpe 4x. dan tiap guiding bisa skitar 1 jam lebih.. dan kalo lagi sial, mungkin kita bisa guiding di hutan antah berantah yang kita ga tau harus ngomong apa, but we were pushed to guide something..kalau udah kaya gitu ya mau ga mau kita ngomongin apa aja.. kalo ada pohon pisang ya kita cerita tu pohon,kalo ada padi ya kita cerita tentang padi, ada monyet ya cerita tentang monyet.. that's why my lecture said that we are as tourism students have to be the center of information, we will guide people n we must know everything..cos people will ask unpredictable questions.. Dosen memandu II gw itu terkenal killer, di bis ga boleh tidur, ketauan merem dikit aja bisa diturunin dari bis.. (can u imagine that??) so, di bis kita cuma bisa kriyep2 merem melek..ngantuknya ga tahannnn.. bayangin aja, kita nyampe hotel bisa jam 9 malem, baru bener2 tidur jam 12an...ya secara anak muda ya,mana mungkin kita nyampe hotel langsung tidur..pasti ada kongko2nya, ngobrol.. tapi buat anak2 yang rajin karna besok harus guiding ya mereka langsung masuk kamar n ngafalin bahan guiding sampe semaput.. Kita uda harus bangun jam 5 pagi.. ngantuk banget cuyy..uda cape mampus tapi tidur cuma seiprit.. hiks.. n parahnya di bis ga boleh tidur.arghhh.. so tortured.. coba aja ngebayangin nahan ngantuk dari pagi sampe ketemu malem lagi selama 11hari..gila cuyy..


Sialnya gw pernah ketiduran beberapa detik di bis, dan ketauan sama sang dosen..ah tidakkk.. tapi untungnya gw ga diturunin dari bis kok.hahaha..mungkin karna itu uda hari terakhir dan si dosen berbaik hati ga nurunin gw.. kenapa gw bs ketiduran??mungkin karna itu adalah akumulasi ngantuk gw selama 10hari yang akhirnya uda ga tertahan lagi.hahahaha... tapi dibalik semua susah payah itu, banyak banget juga kenangan manis.. kita yang kedinginan sampe mampus di bromo,jam 4 pagi uda bertengger di penanjakan.. naek tangga yang bikin kaki rasanya maw putus saking tingginya... trus di bali, ke kuta jalan kaki tengah malem yang sebenernya ga penting karna uda ga ada apa2 juga malem2.. banyak banget deh yang kalo disebutin satu2 disini ga bakal kelar..hehe..



Gw juga udah ngerasain 3 hari di pulau seribu..kita ke pulau rambut,pulau onrust, apalagi ya...lupa.hehe..kita tinggal di pulau pramuka, n di hari ke 2 kita snorkling di pulau semak daun untuk pertama kalinya yang ternyata asik bgt..kita diajarin untuk pake google sama fin sebagai alat untuk snorkling..gw ngeliat terumbu karang yang keren banget, yg gw ga bakal percaya kalo ga liat dengan mata kepala sendiri.. gw jadi pengen ke bunaken,yang katanya jauh lebih bagus, i wonder how beautiful it is..

Tapi lucunya ada temen gw yang parno gitu,hahah..ya iyaa lah secara kita berenang di ketinggian 10 meter lebih, malah ada yang bilang 30 meter, auk dah yang bener yang mana.gw juga ga nyangka gw ternyata berani juga berenang ditengah laut gitu.hehehe..

Pulang2 dari pulau seribu, kulit gw gosong da kaya mbak2..bayangin aja 6 jam berenang di tengah laut gitu.. dari pagi sampe terik matahari.. setelah beberapa hari pulang ke jakarta, kulit jadi pada ngelotok, sampe gw sendiri jijik ngliat kulit sendiri.. yang cowo2 malah ampir satu badan nglotok, secara mereka kan ga pake baju gitu kalo berenang..hehe..




Perjalanan terakhir kita sekelas itu adalah Flaming Asia Tour.. tour 4 negara meliputi Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore.. that's the memorable trips i'll never forget..ini adalah perjalanan yang sangat berkesan karna tur ini adalah projek kelompok gw...Green Travel.. Jadi tur itu keseluruhan dirancang oleh Green Travel..yang juga didampingi dosen tentunya.. sebelumnya kita sekelas ngadain presentasi didepan kelas, didepan beberapa travel dan wholesaler untuk memperjuangkan produk kelompok masing2..tapi setelah melalui perjuangan melelahkan, akhirnya terpilihlah Green Travel sebagai pemenang...dengan product Flaming Asia 11 days 10 nights..





Kapan lagi pergi keluar negeri rame2 bareng temen sekelas, meskipun harga selangit tapi toh semua anak ikut juga.. ngerasain jadi turis rame2 di negeri orang.. Ngerasain jalan jalan malem...kenapa malem2??karna siang2 ga mungkin gitu, uda ada itinerary yang udah disusun.. hampir tiap malem kita baru tidur jam 2 ato 3 pagi karna jalan2, meskipun kita tau besok bakal bangun pagi n bakal ngantuk di jalan..aji mumpung gitu di negeri orang.. makan roti cane di malay tengah malem, makan bakmi si sukme tengah malem disebrang hotel di vietnam, ngumpet2 masuk ke kasino di Genting,Malaysia..(tapi ga judi kok)...jln2 ngeliat banci thailand (ada yang bilang kalo tu cewe jelek berarti masih asli dan kalo yang cakep itu perlu dicurigain keasliannya.hahaha..secara operasi kelamin di thailand udah legal,bahkan ada rumah sakit sendirinya gitu..) Oya gw juga sempet foto sama bencong setelah nonton alcazar show (itu show banci yang terkenal banget buat turis2)..







The most exiting thing is..me and some of my friends who is joined in Green Travel didn't need to guide all the way, so we were totally tourists.. Tapi tetep aja banyak ilmu yang kita pelajari selama perjalanan itu.. gw jadi tau gimana sih caranya ngurus imigrasi, prosedur check in hotel,n tetek bengek yang diperlu dikuasain dalam perjalanan..



well, i guess that's a bit story of my trips in my campus life.. just wanna share it to you guys.. =)
