LINE logo My LINE–a chatting platform–has been updated. The application just added a new feature to it, and, “I am really excited about it.” Very well then, ladies and gentlemen, may I present you LINE’s newest feature. "Share highlights of your day with 'STORIES'!" LINE's new feature ... ... ... ... ... ...W-what the f*ck? I do not get it. What is your f*cking purpose, LINE?? You do not have to copycat Instagram which already had this feature since 2016–and the first generation ever Snapchat (since 2013). A feature that allows me to do some live reports, venting and ranting sessions, quiz, voting, etc. And as for LINE, you already have thousands of stickers and emoticons that allows me to express my true feeling for others. You also have a ‘FREE CALL’ feature, which is good for me that I do not have to pay for my calling fees. Then, you also have LINE Points that can be got from installing an app or adding an official account...

Not sure if I am happy right now. I am just doing things as usual today, like playing games, checking messages, surfing the net, eating, playing with my cat, watching videos on YouTube , and sleeping. Those above are all my activities during my university's holiday. The first term stars from the end of December (around Christmas) until midst-February, while the second term starts from midst-June until the first week September. My dear readers, most of you will say, "Wow... that is quite a long day for holiday. Wish that my school/university is like that." But, I will not recommend this kind of holiday to you, guys, except that you have a lot of money that you can travel anywhere and anytime. It is boring as hell, wish I could go to university again because I miss my friends so much. Deep inside, I want to do a single productive activity during this holiday, like doing a part-time job or intern, learning how to drive a car, travelling around Jakarta, hanging...

2018. Why there were a lot of catastrophes happened that year? 2018. How did I survive that year? 2018. What was I learning from that year? 2018. A year where I had to lose my monthly-fees around 400k. Yes, that is a lot amount of money. With that amount, I could buy a lot of food, books, 'salty' things, and more. I could even buy some new clothes and pairs of shoes with that such amount. But, thanks to the main guest star (had to pay 50 million in advance, HA), financial report was being secluded until 3-4 days before the event started, and such things I can't mention, my peaceful life were ruined. I had to pay 400k on the earlier month, after I received my monthly-fee, to cover the deficit of ‘this’ event. And, (of course) my mum was mad at me after I told this. This is such a bad dream for the committees like me. We were full of rage back then. We cried a lot back then. We even dissed the head-chief back then. 2018. A year when someone said that I ...

(English)  Every day around 8 AM, I leave the boarding house and order GrabBike to go to the campus. Sometimes, I walk too to the campus. Walking to the campus takes around 15 minutes, while taking GrabBike to the campus takes around 3-4 minutes. And because of that, I prefer ordering GrabBike .             Every day, starting from 7-9 AM, the street gets crowded, full of people. There are also a lot of cars and motorbikes, and big trucks not to mention. And aside from the street, the campus’ gate also gets crowded. Since it is crowded, there are also some suspicious people. So, I always be cautious when I walk through the crowd.           On the way to the campus, people will always check some new messages, or listen to the music. But as for me, I do not do anything. If I get into an accident, it will be troublesome. Hence, I prefer to chat with myself while on the way to the campus.       ...

To be honest, if someone asks me with that question, I will be absolutely confused. “Which songs that will make it for my summer playlist?” For me, since the summer vibe is a moment where you, my dear readers, have to release some positive energies from yourselves, a summer playlist must contain songs with positive energies too. Aside from songs with positive energies, summer vibe will feel less if it is not coupled with a little bit of love spices. Am I right? :) So, I tried to choose songs that will make it for my summer playlist. When I was deciding which songs for the playlist, my head started spinning like hell because for me, most songs in my laptop (and Spotify ) are satisfying to be heard. In addition, I have to rank them–which is the song that are too satisfying to be heard. But, since there are a lot of songs, I decided to leave it as it is and here is the final result. Hope you, my dear readers, like it :). SUMMER PLAYLIST (SHANE VER.) 打上花火 – DAOKO x 米津 玄師 Sh...

My dear readers, do you know what one question that needs to be asked? Why God creates humans and what are His goals? I am sure that you can find those answers in a Bible. But to be honest, answers in a Bible are not enough for me. And more importantly, why did God create me? What are His goals for my future? Well, the answer is simple, “I do not know!” From far as I know, I am just an ordinary yet useless girl who is living in this cruel and competitive world. First, I was born in a well-financed family, I grow up as a normal person, I can get educations until being a public university student, and I also can travel around the world. My life can be said as a perfect life. But, why He chose these paths for me? Simple, “I do not know!” However, everything I have and live are not balanced with what I am actually doing in real life. When I was a high school student, my classmates labelled me as an introvert since I always stayed silence in class and never talked to anyon...

I do not know if you guys say that this is a ‘transition period’… But, you know what? Screw it! After graduating from high school and got accepted in a university–which is Padjadjaran University (as I already mentioned in my blog)–I had to leave home, family, friends, and my luxurious life. Instead of being sad due to far away from hometown, I was so happy back then that I finally live alone for (temporarily) four years to study and no parent around to scold me when I am playing games/watching anime s on my laptop. And to be honest, this experience is not very new to me since I already did the homestay at a host family’s place–which is a village that located in the border of Central Java and Special Region of Yogyakarta–for a week. And the place that I am staying right now is Jatinangor, which is a small village but looks like a suburb and has a pretty lively nightlife. Yes, like in my hometown Tangerang, Jatinangor also has cafés/restaurants–but not as much as in my home...

One day, a friend of mine said this to me, “Being a shidouin is an honour thing to do.” W-wait a minute What is shidouin , Shane? What does a shidouin do, Shane? Why being a shidouin is an honour thing to do, Shane? Okay, I will tell you everything I know, my dear readers. Based on jisho.org , 指導員 (read: shidouin ) means instructor; advisor; adviser. Like a teacher or a lecturer, a shidouin also teaches a certain subject, but he/she also gives a certain training/seminar to his/her students. In my place, Japanese Literature major, Padjadjaran University, shidouin s teach how to write hiragana and katakana beautifully–since the lecturers in my place are really hate when seeing bad hand-writings–how to do aisatsu in front of senpai s, and more to the freshmen. They also introduce them to some popular Japan cultures and sing a Japanese children song together. Fun fact, these shidouin s are the 2 nd and 3 rd year senpai s. I remembered when I was a...
