Someday, when we are wiser | when the world’s older | when we have learned
Someday, life will be fairer | Need will be rarer | Greed will not pay

Kopi Selasar, 1 Oct 2011.
For me, a cup of coffee is more than what meets the eye. It’s a magic connecting liquid between the past, present and the future. Whenever I had a sip, certain type of coffee reminds me of certain someone or certain circumstances. Whenever I walked into a coffee shop, it will remind me of a person I went with, or why did I go there and who might be coming with me again.
When I was away from...

2 years ago, end of September 2009, I took off my suitcases and headed to UK for another exciting journey. Not knowing anyone, stranded in a town where I was the only Indonesian student in that year’s enrollment, I was in between excitement and total nervous breakdown.
My first day in Guildford, Surrey was .. sad. Sad in a way that I had to slept after 16 hours of flight, in a 10 ºC...

A note on Ramadhan 2011 (2)
The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page
- St. Augustine
Today in Twitter, I found this headline ‘FPI Sweeping Warung Makan di Puncak’ and all that is left to do is just sighing. When will the government have enough conscience and guts to eradicate these scums and let us Indonesians live ‘unity in diversity’? So, instead of opening the link...
A note on Ramadhan 2011 (1)
Two things that annoy me the most; a bad massage and interfaith intolerance. Luckily, the former and I have made a peace when I found ‘RILEKS’ reflexology in the neighborhood. It is safe to say that RILEKS has placed it self in my 10-places-to-go-before-the-coming-monday.
About the latter, well, it is getting more and more frustrating here in Indonesia. About a week after the start of...

It was this afternoon when I read a tweet about bomb blasts in Mumbai, India. Later at night, I read an article in Yahoo UK about triple blasts in Mumbai that killed at least 20 with more than 130 injured. The explosions happened during rush hour in which officials claimed that it was another acts of terrorism, which was once hit by Pakistan-based militants in 2008. As of this second, I haven’t...

Polygamy: Is You Is or Is You Ain't My Baby
A week after the launching of Indonesia’s Obedient Wives Club, which promotes good sex as a foundation for healthy marriages, I was again stunned with the ‘Mayor marrying 19 years old teenager as his fourth wife’ news. As I scrolled down and look at the commentary sections from readers, it worries me even more since most of them said that what the Mayor did is a good thing and that no one...

Only a fool believes that the world can be changed within hour.
But rather than being so cynical and negative, I chose to give a sincere appreciation to all these people who have voluntarily make time to participate in this event.
We all need once in a while reminder.. and for what it’s worth, it has always been a pleasure to gather around with people who still have faith in...

P.S:
add honey mustard sauce for the chicken
if you feel like adding salad, mix rocket leaves, lettuce, red lettuce, red spinach, chopped tomatoes (whatever you wish to add) in a bowl. Then pour Italian dressing and mix it properly. If you’re not on a diet, grab half table spoon of garlic cream cheese and put it on the side of your salad.
*may I borrow your notes? I fell asleep during the class.
Camerabag for mac
Finally! after long period of jealousy over iphone’s hipstamatic, toy camera, lomolomo and other appealing applications, I came across with camerabag for mac. It is equipped with 10 choice of filters, not to mention you can experiment with its multi-filter function and 8 choice of borders.
It costs you US$ 19, but for a sentimental photography lovers, I think this app will fill up your...
