Good afternoon.
The reason for typing this blog is a very tragic one. A very close member of my family died today. Besides all feelings of sorrows and sadness that we all had and have and will have inside, I came to the thought that everything must be in time in our life.
How come that people who were very dearest to us heard sweet and warm words not as often as it should be? And only when we lose them physically without any change of returning back to this world, we realize that we could do thi
Hardly could walk
One fine winter morning
Just walked into with a very slow pace
Wearing a raged old black shabby coat
But from the very first sight
I sensed something!
I followed his pace and caught him
A tall, once very handsome, fair old man
was just in front of a little girl
What was in his those deep black eyes?
eagerness or struggle!
What was in his those deep light blue eyes
shame or struggle to hold his last breathe!
An old man with a shabby old coat
was standing in front of me!
From the very first si
Hello everyone
This is my first post in my blog. I would like to have attention to all of you who really want to learning english, not like here just for chatting. Well, chatting is a part of conversational skill, but not all.
Yesterday I realized something weird. Yeah guys, I feel now like I am part of some minority or somebody whose opinions are not typical for country I live in. I was surfing on the Internet, reading the articles. I guess we all do this but this time I decided to pay attention to the comments bellow the text, which were written by the random people. Guess what???!!! I got almost heart attack.
One thing is more than clear. Some people's self-confidence grew a lot thanks to the social media and anony
Did you hear that an angry Chinese passenger opened the emergency exit of a plane? That can be so unbelievable but really happened.
The plane was on the way to the runway, but the runway was so busy that the plane had to wait until it was allowed to use the runway - all the passengers had already been stuck on their seat without air conditioning for quite a while. Suddenly, a passenger unfastened his seat belt and went to open the emergency exit (door). The passenger was arrested for his abrupt

Life is like a wondering summer cloud that would vanish leaving behind huge effects on us.
I didn't write this. A friend of mine sent from Iran. I am blogging it here with her permission.
“What goes through your mind as you sit there looking at me? Well, I can tell from your look that you think I’m so oppressed, but I don’t need you to liberate me. My head is not bare, and you can’t see my covered hair, so you sit there and you stare, and you judge me with your glare. You’re sure I’m in despair, but are you not aware, under this scarf that I wear I have feelings, and I do care how
The sprout of happiness gets germinated inside your heart, lighting your soul, flaring your eyes, and glowing your face with romantic emotions when you hear the magic words “I love you”. His warm arms around, cool swift breeze, fading and setting sunlight, and his hypnotic voice makes everything romantic. Heart becomes drunk with happiness and you wish this time never ends. Seems everything is going on right direction and you feel like you can live all your life in his warm embrace. And this lov
Your Loyal Wife
Stolen sweet thoughts, miserable weird mood,
on the table your keys, in the fridge your food.
Clocks is ticking backwards but life goes on,
things will never be the same when you are gone.
Your smell is still around, your shadow next to me,
our future is just past, nothing was meant to be.
My tears lost salty taste, reality is forever blurred,
Why those bad ones are always happy and nice are hurt?
Only warm shower can wash away all my sorrow,
"Relax, girl, there is new beginning, new tomor
Enjoying an afternoon in the concrete jungle, in a corner of the crowded Thamrin street, strain of music anesthetized my ear and mind for a moment.
Hmmmmm..... almost every day I spent the late afternoon at this cafe, waiting for the traffic jam to unravel.
Jakarta,.... crowded road, for suburban people like me it's better to find a nice and comfortable shelter before I struggle to reach home....
Light bulbs entertaining......Jakarta becomes a city of light when the night comes
"What am I to you"
I love eating, but will drag my feet, and hand, and every organs in my body to do any cooking. Sometimes, I do wonder how do I survived having eaten some of my so called 'home cooked' dishes. Anyway, I tried my hardest to search, well more like rummage, through my very limited knowledge of dishes and came up with this recipe.
It's a very simple recipe, and unfortunately not limited to holiday season. I chose this recipe because it's simple, and the ingredients, I hope easily available to everyone

Have you ever wondered why is everybody going crazy about learning English? Don’t you think things will be a whole lot easier if you will just focus on your native language? Why learn English when you can communicate in your local language at home? Why is English so important that learners are willing to spend time and money just to be fluent in it? These are the questions that some of my students asked. The answer is very simple: English is the universal language.
English is widely spoken in dif
On 14 January 2015, once again I had to travel to Sandakan to attend a meeting. Since there was only one direct flight to Sandakan, as usual, it was going to be a 2-day trip. I reached Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) with an ample time to spare since I had checked-in through my mobile.
As you may have known, it's a monsoon season in Malaysia, so it's always raining, though lately it was not that bad. The flight was 2 and 1/2 hour, and there was no in-flight entertainment. So I spent my
