Bakso B2 Jl. Polisi Istimewa Surabaya [Makan Ngemper Review]

Image
Peringatan: Maaf, postingan kali ini mengandung makanan yang haram menurut agama tertentu, yaitu sapi pendek alias B2. Yang tidak mau membaca silahkan klik tombol x di pojok kanan atas. Yang malah penasaran membaca, hati-hati ngiler. You've been warned . Mari kita mulai review Makan Ngemper. Setiap kali lewat Jl. Polisi Istimewa bersama Pak Suami , dia selalu menunjuk satu penjual makanan kaki lima yang sama dan bilang, "Ayo kapan-kapan kamu aku ajak makan di sana. Bakso babi tuh." Begitu sering Pak Suami melemparkan janji ajakan makan bakso babi ini tanpa segera merealisasikannya, sehingga rasa lapar penasaran saya menumpuk makin tinggi. Akhirnya setelah suatu hari saya berkata, "Ayo kita makan bakso babi. Jangan janji melulu!" merapatlah kami ke penjaja kaki lima yang berjudul "Bakso B2" ini. Letaknya di Jl. Polisi Istimewa, di depan Gereja Katedral Hati Kudus Yesus dan SMA St. Louis 1. Waktu itu siang hari dan saya sedang hamil besar. Cua...

My (Early) Impression of Dubai

Image
It's tricky to define Dubai, and my definition might be too early because I've just been here for a month and a couple of days. However, for sure, although Dubai is in Arabian peninsula, you will be disappointed if you look for Arabia world here. For one thing, 85% of the people here are expatriates (and most of them are India and Pakistani). Another thing, Dubai is like a showcase of its country UAE to display how modern and rich the country is. In my humble opinion, the showcase is somewhat tacky and lots of times over the top. "Literally" over the top, right? :D You can browse the Internet and read the history of Dubai, but to make the story short, it was in around 1970 that Dubai started to build fast and tall. So it is like in the Arabian 1001 nights. This modern city was built "magically" overnight . No wonder not much ancient culture can be found here. But if you insist, you can still see such things (click for bigger picture): Left: Traditional Dubai...

Today the universe conspires to teach me how to forgive

Image
Just kidding. I'm not converting to cosmic humanism. It is just God who conspires to make all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. Yesterday evening I discussed about forgiveness with my husband. Forgiveness is not easy, everyone who holds a grudge against someone knows this. But I find it particularly hard because I do not know how to do it. I mean, I've read and heard the theories of forgiveness. I know that if you do not want to forgive, you actually make yourself bitter. I like this one forgiveness quote in particular, "To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you." Powerful, right? Today Facebook (and Ega) even reminded me about forgiveness, from 10 years ago. This is starting to be freakish. Yesterday I contemplated about forgiveness, and now today this. Okay, I know why forgiving someone is important, along with all the benefits. But the problem i...
