Nostalgia: In Memoriam of My Mom

Today, September 30th, is the same date with my mother’s funeral. She passed away at September 29th 1999, at a hospital in Jakarta. She had a kidney failure; and had undergone kidney transplantation. My brother, Luki, has given his kidney. The new kidney can make her survive for about eleven years. But then, her condition was getting worse and worse. The picture was taken about two years after my Mom had been operated.

When I miss her, sometimes I write it down on a letter. I have ever posted this letter; but I’ll share it again here, in memoriam of her.

A Letter for Mom
Dear Mom,

Though we can’t meet again, you’re always in my heart and prayers
I do hope to see you in my dreams, but why you’ve never come?

Mom, I love to remember all the times that we spent together
We’ve ever had wonderful times, do we?
Learning to cook in the kitchen, shopping at the market and mall, watching movies at the cinema, or just sitting at the terrace and having a chat…

I have no sister, but I’ve never felt alone; because you’ll always be there as my friend
Didn’t you remember that every time I returned home from school, I always looked for you to tell you all what happened that day…?
and I’ll be disappointed if I found that you weren’t at home…

Mom, didn’t you remember many nights at hospitals that we spent just two of us?
I remembered the night at the hospital when we’re crying together…
I felt so regret that time, why was I so weak and why did I make you cry?
Since then, I’ll always try to be strong for you, I wanted to be your source of strength and I wanted to ease your pain…

Mom, didn’t you remember, on one day before you left us, you said that you felt so tired but you didn’t have the heart to leave us?
Didn’t you remember that then I was leaving you at the hospital room for a while? Actually, I was going out to cry in the front of door… I didn’t want to cry in front of you…

Mom, I remember that in the night, we had to move you to ICU unit, because your condition was getting worse and worse…
I can’t hear your words again; I even can’t remember what your last word was…
Sleepless, I tried to accompany you and kept whispering all prayers on your ear…

When I saw your hard breath, didn’t you remember I was whispering to say that I can let you go, so you can rest in peace?
Mom, did you really heard me because then you released your last breath?

With all my heart and soul, I let you go, Mom. But can’t we meet one day?
Mom, I’m not so good at arranging words, I write this letter for you, because I so miss you this night…

Miss you so much,

Your daughter

One Afternoon in Raflesia Garden

This playing field is located in my father’s home town (Ciamis, West Java, Indonesia). I came to the park about two weeks ago; when I visited my grand father’s house. You can see that lots of activities happen in this park. There are many sellers that sell various things, such as foods and drinks, balloon, kites, toys, etc. Children are playing kites and foot ball, and also other games that offered there.


The unique thing in Raflesia Garden: there are carts that pulled by sheeps. Children love riding the cart and then wandering the garden.

Pink Rosy Periwinkle

Indonesian people call it Bunga Tapak Dara. Its botanical name is Catharanthus roseus. Rosy Periwinkle has silky, dark green, oval leaves (1-2 inches long) and flowers all summer long. The blooms of the natural wild plants are a pale pink with a purple "eye" in their centers.

The plant has traditionally been used to treat a wide variety of diseases. It was used as a folk remedy for Diabetes in Europe for centuries (also in Indonesia). In India, juice from the leaves was used to treat wasp stings. In Hawaii, the plant was boiled to make a poultice to stop bleeding. In China, it was used as an astringent, diuretic and cough remedy. In Central and South America, it was used as a homemade cold remedy to ease lung congestion and inflammation and sore throats. Throughout the Caribbean, an extract from the flowers was used to make a solution to treat eye irritation and infections. Very interesting plant, isn’t it?

Moreover, it also had a reputation as a magic plant; Europeans thought it could ward off evil spirits, and the French referred to it as "violet of the sorcerers."

I captured these flowers, on my visit to my grandfather’s house. I saw the plant on the left side yard.

The Tech Etiquette for You (3)

7. Situation: You are in the middle of a time-consuming e-mail exchange or chatting. How to end it?


When the pings back and forth have gone to one word that means the conversation is over. If you’re receiving too lots of e-mails, it might mean that you’re also sending too many.

If it’s a good friend, tell her it’s been great conversation but you have to go. If it’s a client who is a friend, tell her you have to get back to work but would love to catch up when you see her next.

8. Situation: You ‘Google’ someone (use google to search information about someone) and it’s about time to meet for the first time. Is it awkward to mention what you have learned about her?

If you can praise someone on an award or a promotion, it explains you’ve done your homework. But bringing up personal information could be impolite.

Ask yourself : what you would feel comfy with someone knowing about you. Good news, such as a marriage, is generally allrigt, but be sure the information is up-to-date―within the last six months―and related to the conversation. And if you really had to dig to get the information, you might not want to mention it.

9. Situation : Are emoticons suitable to apply in office e-mails?

You can use emoticons, when it’s used carefully and with judgment. Apply them to soften the blow with coworkers when making a strong suggestion or a correction and things need to be lightened up.

In business, though, use them only with people you know well and never in a first approach.

If the other person is using them, go ahead. Unless you know the person well, it’s best not to be the first.

A Man-Power Carousel

Perhaps this game looks like a carousel; but for me, it’s a more terrifying version. It doesn’t use any machine to make it rotates and people sitting on it moving in a circle- up and down. I can see more than five men were running, pulling and then releasing the carousel for a while to rotate by itself. For each round of the game (about 15 minutes); they do these series of actions several times.

It’s my first time seeing this, so, I was amazed to watch all these men’s actions. I think it’s quite dangerous; but it seems that they have already known what to do to avoid getting injured. They can be dragged to the ground, lifted up from the ground, thrown outside the carousel and sometimes they must jump down so high onto the ground. It’s almost similar with seeing acrobatics at the circus!
It’s a pity that I was too stunned to capture all their actions well. I saw this game when it was held (last week) in a field around the Petuguran Dam (Bumiayu, Central Java, Indonesia); during my vacation to visit my FIL there.

Getting Cleaner Air for Your Family’s Better Health

There are several things should be considered to get healthy life; such as eating healthy food, taking regular exercise and living in a healthy home. Since we must breathe every time, we can’t live without air. So, air is the extremely important thing in human’s life. In fact, if you want to be a healthy person, you should get clean air every day.


You should avoid the air that contains dangerous pollutants, as it can really endanger your and your family’s health. If you think before that you can be healthier if you seldom expose to outdoor air; you are really wrong all these times. Dangerous pollutants can be also found in the indoor air; even the indoor air in your home.

Since your family members are at home most of the times, you should pay attention to the quality of the air in your home. You may keep clean the home every day, but it doesn’t assure that the air is free from dangerous contaminants. For your knowledge, long exposure to polluted air can be the illness source. The germs in the air that your family breathes in can make your loved one sick.

To solve the contaminated air problem in your home; you can install an air purifier that uses the best quality
Air filters. It will ensure that you will get the maximal function of the air purifier. If you also have furnaces and air conditioners, you must apply Furnace Filters and Air Conditioning Filters in each piece of equipment.

Nostalgia: Grandfather’s House



On my previous Nostalgia post; I was talking about the grandfather’s house-on my mother’s side- that doesn’t exist anymore. Not similar to it; the grandfather’s house-on my father’s side- still looks beautiful until now. My two aunties can stay there to look after the house.

When my grandfather and grandmother were still alive, at least once a year, especially during Eid ul-Fitr vacation, the whole big family would gather together. I’m so happy, on this year Eid ul-Fitr vacation, we can visit the house. The first pictures were captured about 20 years ago (sorry for the blurry) and the second one was captured last Saturday.

Unforgettable Beach Vacation

When talking about having beach vacation; one of my dream destinations is visiting North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, United States of America. I always astonish every time seeing the stunning photos of beautiful sands, wide beaches and fabulous hotels. It makes me want to visit the beach and have my own coastal experience. I still don’t know when exactly I can visit there, but I have compiled information about North Myrtle Beach. Let me share a little bit here; perhaps you want to know more about it.

Located in Horry County, South Carolina; North Myrtle Beach is a coastal resort city that has become one of the prime vacationer towns along the Grand Strand. Myrtle Beach itself has been long famous as a main tourist destination along the South Atlantic Coast of South Carolina. Several reasons that make it so popular: wide beaches, beautiful sands, luxury
Myrtle Beach Accommodations, great choice of challenging golf links, excellent dining places and lots of shopping area.
The good thing is, North Myrtle Beach has all the attractiveness and atmosphere of other Myrtle Beach areas; but it is less crowded.

You surely can more enjoy your beach vacation, right?

It will be a good idea if you decide to spend some nights and get experience with Myrtle Beach accommodations. Anyway, I have made my own plan. Based on the information at http://www.seasidemb.com; when I truly visit North Myrtle Beach one day, I’m fascinated to stay at Sea Side resort. I really want to feel the comforts and experience their first class facilities; while I’m also enjoying the beauty of the beach and the ocean.

Mass Transportation


In my country, Indonesia, it’s actually not common views in big cities. But if you are entering the small cities and rural areas; sometimes, you can see this - especially during holiday season. Trucks were used to bring lots of people; of course, it’s not a safe and comfortable ride. They were under the sun and exposed by the wind straightly. But it seemed that it’s not a big problem for them.
I’m still in my FIL’s house right now. We plan to go back home tomorrow. Hope my journey back home is going well. I really hope that there’s no traffic jam anymore!

Nostalgia: At Grandfather’s House


It’s my late entry. Actually, I’m a little upset right now; as I still can’t find my personal photo albums. I remember that I’ve compiled several of them in one separate place; but I can’t remember where I kept it. Sigh.

Unfortunately, the house doesn’t exist anymore. As there’s no one can stay to take care of it; the house was sold. The buyer destroyed and changed it into a car repair shop. These photos are my only memories to the house.

The Tech Etiquette for You (2)

4. Situation: If someone calls you by phone, can you e-mail the person back or send a text message? What if you text or e-mail someone and the person calls you back?

You should think about the best way to answer. If someone contacted you by phone to ask about directions somewhere; you can reply via e-mail, so you can send along a map to him.

You send a text message because you don’t feel like to talk; but the person calls back. Well, it’s better if you don’t answer. If you do answer, the other person will sense your bad mood right away and might get upset. Just text back to inform that you can’t talk now but will call later. Your friend will understand your reason.

5. Situation:Is it sneaky to use BCC (blind carbon copy) on an e-mail?

That’s right. It can also be dangerous, because your BCC can be exposed if the blind recipient hits Reply All or forwards the e-mail to someone else. To protect yourself from this, forward the message separately with an explanation.

On the other side, BCC can be also useful. If you feel that an e-mail discussion you had could become a larger issue, you could BCC your boss to make her/him aware of the situation. Just don’t flood your boss with copies of every e-mail you send.

6. Situation: Is it allright to talk on your cell phone when you’re ordering food, getting your hair, and any other activity?

Totally no. It’s impolite to talk on the phone when you’re relating with other person. Don’t overlook the people around you; they can hear your private conversation. You should treat everyone with common respect. Don’t do it!

The Tech Etiquette for You

In this modern world; many people use gadgets here and there. Sometimes, it can bring us to the situation that makes us awkward – don’t know what we should do. Katie McElveen has compiled the tech etiquette; it can be your solution. Check it out!

1. Situation: Accidentally, you meet someone you know while listening to your iPod. Do you should remove both earbuds to talk to her?


If you’re having more than a two-minute conversation with her, both earbuds (and your Bluetooth earpiece) need to remove―whether you turn off the device or not. Other people want to know that the person they’re talking to is really paying attention to them.

Etiquette is all about making the other person more comfortable. Imagine this. How comfortable could your friend be trying to talk to you when you’ve got something in your ears?

2. Situation: Is it impolite to check your PDA while you are visiting a friend’s house?

It can be a little rude. But if you give explanation that you need to check a few e-mails before so you can give her your full attention, she will probably understand. If you don’t give any explanation and you’re busy reading your e-mails, you will send the message that you’re bored.

3. Situation: How fast must you answer an e-mail? Are the standards dissimilar for work e-mails versus personal e-mails?

Not responding quickly―within hours and certainly by the end of the day―to any e-mail might make the other side feel as though she’s being ignored. It’s important to respond on time to business e-mails because that is professional and courteous. You may use your out-of-office assistant or automatic-response setting to let people know why they might not be hearing from you as quickly as they’re used to. So, the earlier you can respond properly, the better.
