I used to think that when people said 'everything happens for a reason' it is just words. Until i contemplated and found that is true. Nothing in this world that happens for nothing. I am sure that we are here in this world not for waste.
When i travelled to Jogja with a friend, we arrived late at night. And we thought that we arrived there too late and we did bad timing management. We thought we would stay at the hotel too short and check out at the next morning, beside there is no more Trans Jogja, cheap public bus that commute in Jogja area. Usually at night the available transport only taxi, becak ( pedicap) and ojek. I could imagine how would it be when we arrived at Jogja bus station. Taxi driver, pak becak and pak ojek will offer us their service and they would tail us if we havent decided yet. And the bus entered the Jogja bus station at 12.10. I was completely right. taxi drivers, pak becak and pak ojek followed us and offer their services. At last we were dealing with pak becak to take us to hotel close to Malioboro. It was quiet far from the station. We agreed to pay him Rp. 35.000. On the way i spoke with the pedicapman. He told me that his children were all died in earthquake in 2006 that hit Jogja. He told us that he was waiting for passengers to ride on his pedicap, but no one would ride. So he said he was lucky that he got us as his customers. That conversation made me think that we were not suppose to regret whatever made us arrive in Jogja too late. We are here too late so this pedicapman can earn money for his family.
My other experience is last time when we would visit a friend, Fury, i Blitar, who's just lost his father. We delayed the date to go over and over again. Then we thought that it could possibly we didnt go to Blitar cus we were to busy manage the day. But then we decided to go on Monday. It was perfect until Neni's family called and said that the roof of the house they just rent last month fell apart and destroy things. The good news is that no one at the house at that moment. Neni said that the roof fell down at 9 am. When usually she took nap after finishing her pastry order till late at night. Lucky her she went to Blitar with us. Everything happens for a reason.
So i now try to always accept whatever come to me. Sure there is something behind this. Why i didnt continue my study after my hi-school, why i was born from farmer family, why.. why.. and so many other whys.
I know God has beautiful reasons that those things happens in my life.
My friend's father died this month so i and 4 other friends visited her to show our condolences. We rent a car and depart in the morning. My friend's house is in Blitar, and it takes 4 hours from Surabaya to get there.
Her house was in a village in Bacem. Very tranquil, green, and windy. And the houses are not like in Surabaya. They are usually bigger with large garden full of trees of fruit, papaya, pepper, or spices. for me i love the atmosphere so much. I am thinking of spending my old time in small village like this. This is the first time i visited Blitar and i love this place alot, especially my friend's village.
As one of my friend's is from Tulungagung, so we stopped by at his house in Tulungagung. We went to the city park of Tulungagung. This park is designed with interesting landscape. I love the fountain in the middle of the park. And the pigeon everywhere. And other interesting thing is that the park path is completed with path for feet reflexion when you step on it. I think my father will love to step on that path everyday and will make him healthier. Also for me too.
When we arrived at Kediri on the way back to Surabaya it is already 5.30 o'clock. We stopped by to see Simpang Lima Gumul. Although the bulding erchitecture similar to "L'arch De Triomphe" in France, this monument is inspired by Jongko Joyoboyo, Kediri KIng in 12th century that united 5 area in Kediri. I think the architecture looks like mediteranean, only that the relief on the wall show the culture of Kediri, such as farmers. And at the corner of the monument also placed Ganesha. I dont know why ganeshas are placed there. I heard in weekend this monument is full of visitors. And sometimes performed local entertainment.
Last month i lost my wallet in the market in Surabaya. I didnt notice this until the time when i was about to pay a blouse. Though not much money in the wallet, i feel so iritated and feel the loss. My old and mobile that is broken in the screen was lost also as i put it in the wallet. And the ATM card, ID card, other important name card.
This is what i faced because this incident. to regain my ATM, i had to get my ID Card and Statement from police dept that i lost it. To get ID i had to return to Wonosobo which is 12 hours by bus from Surabaya. Luckily my mother made that for me and get this for me when she visited my brother. At last i can get my ATM again, my ID. BUt i can not get my old mobile back, i need the important number there from my friends, business partners. Stupid of me i didnt make other copy of phone numbers in my mobile. And to get same mobile number, it is easy though we should wait in long queue.
What should you do to avoid those complicated thing something like this happen to you? i have the tips. Though i hop you wont experience losing wallet like i did.
1. Do not bring your you original ID card, but bring the copy. Make few copy of your ID. and leave the real ID save at home.
2. If it is not necessary do not bring ATM. Like to nearest market.
3. Beware of pickpocket, dont wear handbag. Wear bag with long rope so you can put it in front of you to watch. And it will be saver if you wear cargo trousers where you can putt wallet/money at the pockets on front of your knee.
4. Make copy of important phone numbers to notebook.
have you ever bought things from door to door marketer? i usually am not interested to buy things from them. But few months ago there was a sales promo girl came in to my campuss and offered me watch product. The watch is just one but it has 6 twines from many different collors, like green, purple, black, pink, white and blue. the twines are easily attached to the watch. Those colors are cute and so attractive that we can change the twines. When i wear blue i can wear blue twines watch. Green dress with green watch. HMmm you see, it is so tempting for women. Beside this sales girl was well trained. So i finally bought the watch in pink box for Rp.100.000 and it is guaranteed for 1 year. I didnt have enough money but hmmmm i cant take the risk of not buying this trendy watch. ha ha ha.
After a month i found out that one of the watch ring, the green one could not attached well to the watch and when i wore it with my fave green dress. It was fit at the beginning but when i arrive in campus they fell apart. And one of the hand was broken. I decided to go to the office as it is guaranteed. But when i told the office man about this matter, he said that he had no more supply for the watch and that he suggested me to bring it to the watchman. I could not take this, but what can i do? I went to the watchman and to fix it it will cost Rp.20.000. Hmmmmmm
So, be careful when you buy things from sales person. This is what you should remember this:
1. Is the product really guaranteed?
2. Take a look at the product carefully, make sure the the product is in good condition
3. Make sure that the office product is close to where you live.
one thing that is very hard for me admit is that i do not ride motorbike. I am afraid of this mode of transport because i am afraid i cant it in a hectic highway of Surabaya. And in front of my parents' house in Wonosobo it could be two motorbike accidents in a day. i saw blood flowing on highway often. My mother said we need first aid kit at home cause so we can give aid to those who injured right away.
I ride bicycle pretty well. i never had it but my cousin who once lived with us as a cycle that me and my brother can borrow, before thief stole it in the middle of the night when we just moved to new house.
Since i am in Surabaya i go out with friends sometimes, and if i work i go by public transport. Having no motorbike is like lame. You could not go anywhere easily because public transport is poor. I find commuting by public transport is expensive. i once work in Juanda area which took 4 times public transport, that i make it 3 times or 2 times to save up money by walking to the nearest route. Imagine if i had to take 4 times everyday. NO more money left to eat.
I bought second hand bicycle for Rp.200.000. the price is so and so, but at least i can ride this to places in the vicinity. Last Sunday i brought my bicycle to Mangrove Ecotorism. I hadnt been there, so i thought i wanted to do little observation about this place as i would make research for my thesis.
I prayed before hitting the road. Pretty scary to go by bike in a crowded hectic road. I didnt wear helmet, cus i dont have and only motorbike passangers should wear helmet here. Though i felt insecure about this i kept hitting the road. Sometimes motorbikes passing me very quick that make me remember to pray again. It is about 6 km from my boarding house to Mangrove Ecotourism. Hmmm i cant believe i made 12 KM that day.
At night i felt very tired maybe because it had been long time i never did any training. few months ago i run everyday and sit up everyday. But i quit cus i am too lazy. I know i shouldnt be but laziness wins. That night my leg felt so hurt that it was hard for me to sleep but in the morning i felt fresh again. Like i am rejuvenated. ha ha ha.
