Baluran National Park

Last weekend I got a chance to visit Baluran National Park. It's a protected forest in East Java, that also got Savannah called Bekol and a beach called Bama Beach. You can go there from Surabaya (5 hours drive). More technical info about the place go to this website.

It's cheap. The entrance ticket only $2 and if you don't bring a car, you can ask for Ojek or motorcycle ride for around $3-$5. Instantly I enjoy the beauty of Baluran. This is a great place to have Pre-Wedding session or even just

Living ASEAN

Saya menghadiri makan malam bertajuk 'Business Opportunities in an Integrated ASEAN' atas undangan Pak Direktur Jendral Kerjasama Asean, Pak Djauhari Oratmangun. Basically ada 10 meja yang diisi oleh wakil dari negara-negara ASEAN. Kebetulan saya dibawa ke meja depan, meja dari perwakilan Thailand, Ms. Yupawan.

Acer Smartphone Series

"Hey… could anyone please tell me which phone does Blair use in Gossip Girls season 2 episode 17? Thanks!"

Pertanyaan ini benar-benar terlontar di sebuah forum serial Gossip Girl. Gue sendiri tiap habis selesai nonton Gossip Girls, selain  keracunan dengan gaya "You know you love me, xoxo, Gossip Girls" atau tergila-gila dengan gaya super cool-nya Chuck Bass, si antagonis, gue juga jadi sangat penasaran dengan smartphones yang digunakan dan pengen juga ikut-ikutan belagak kirim email gossip a la

ASEAN Day Celebration 2009

Last weekend was one the most craziest weekend I've ever had in my life. I've got a chance to have breakfast with Secretary-General of ASEAN in Jakarta, lunch with CEO of Air Asia in Kuala Lumpur and Dinner with the Prime Minister of Thailand in Bangkok. How cool is that?! Thanks to Air Asia for inviting me and two other bloggers from Indonesia, Ong 'Unspun' Hock Chuan and Enda Nasution to this journey.

The excitement begin the day before the event at Gran Mahakam hotel, Jakarta, where we hand-ov

Program Balita Cerdas

Gambar di atas adalah hasil karya dua orang anak yang tinggal di tempat yang berbeda. Salah satu tinggal di kota dan satunya lagi di desa. Tentu saja hasilnya sama bagus. Jika begitu, kenapa kita harus menyia-nyiakan bakat dan minat anak-anak usia dini di pedesaan? Itu lah yang kira-kira mendasari Program Balita Cerdas yang merupakan hasil kerjasama antara P&G dan Unicef. Dengan mengusung tema LLT - Live, Learn & Thrive dimana akses kesehatan dimungkinkan sehingga anak dapat belajar dengan lebih

Tantowi Yahya Public Speaking School

 

Jadi setelah setahun mikir, akhirnya gue dan suami memutuskan untuk ikutan Tantowi Yahya Public Speaking School (TYPSS). Ngapain lagi lo li? Gue masih nggak pede untuk bicara sendiri tanpa moderator.

Gue selalu merasa gue ngomong kecepetan atau basi karena gue nggak bisa ice breaking atau audience-nya nggak ngerti, dan macam-macam pikiran buruk lainnya.

Memang, gue percaya dengan kekuatan latihan dan jam terbang, tapi gue juga percaya
