Battleship

Battleship? What's wrong about a battleship? Am I in a Navy? Nope!!! It's a movie title! I think all of you can search the trailer in youtube or maybe some reviews from Google. And yes, I have watched it!

Taylor Kitsch

I rate it 5 stars, as it is a great great movie for me. All of the actions are so cool, including the actors, and Rihanna is one of them!! COOL!

Intense moment! <3

Rihanna in action!!!! Cool lady! Love her~ <3<3<3

I always reject to watch movie, because I only prefer to watch action movies, rather than comedy, or cartoon films. As I was asked to watch this movie with my boyfriend, I rejected him so many times! Until I feel he is quite pitiful, so I just agree with him. And another reason is, I've also read some reviews from web, and most of them said it was a good movie.

The funny thing is, when we were watching the movie, suddenly the screen turned into all black, and a few while later, the lamps were all on. People there were so confused with the situation and I talked to my bf, "give us back our money", or "we want more" something like that. Fortunately, it's back to normal in a few minutes.

One word for this movie: COOL!!! So, I would really recommend all of you out there to watch it!

After watching battleship, we were looking for food, and we landed in HokaHokaBento, as it's quite cheap. While eating, we were talking about the movie too. And after that, I have to go for lesson, so we just separated there too. And I just realized it was raining heavily, and some places were flooding! So, he couldn't go back too! LOL. He texted me and told me he was waiting for me since it was raining everywhere, and he could drive me home at the same time. The horrible part is when he was going home, he was stucked in jam, for 1.5 hours. Poor him~~

Here is the simple food we order from Hokben.

Tired me! LOL

当梦被打碎的时候

每个人都拥有一个梦可追。

从小，妈妈爸爸都会问，

"长大了要做什么呢?要当个好医生，好警察，飞机员，还有许多许多呢!

时间过了，成长多了，梦也慢慢地改变。

我们也慢慢知道我们要的是什么。

设好目标，一步一步地慢慢走下去。

但是当你发现你无法把你的梦掌握在手里，你又会怎样做呢?

你会有怎样的感想呢?

现在的我就站在那个圈子里，感到那些美梦一个一个被打碎。

我就像被捆在圈子里，而我想追的事儿就在圈子外。

想踏出那个圈子，但你无力也无法做到。

感到很无助吧!

我有说过了，我的梦很小，很简单，那就是想要到新加坡升学。

试过很多方法，找了许多资料，问了朋友，寄了很多E-mail。

得到了什么呢?

全都是一场空啊!

是我不够努力吗?

是我不够认真吗?

还是我妄想得太多了?

我不知道。

我妈妈说，只要有很大的意志力，有一天我一定会把一切都掌握在手里的。

我就试着那样想，希望奇迹会快点出现吧!

一切都还好

在每个人一生中里都会有些我们预料不到的事儿。

还没解决一件事儿，别的事儿又冲过来。

一件一件慢慢地去面对，把烦恼都赶走。

但有些事儿你怎么解也解不开。

有时还会想着逃避现实，却怎么逃也逃不了。

遇过好多好多的创伤，那不足够打倒我的精神。

我一直都相信，时间是我最有效的解药。

时间过了，久了，慢慢地习惯了，也慢慢地把它都忘掉了。

那些别人留下的伤口，也会慢慢地恢复起来的。

会有一阵子会把心锁起来，当那儿波浪过了，心锁会自然而然地打开。

哭了，笑了，又哭了，又笑了， 这不就是我们所说的生活吗?

站起来，勇敢地面对它，勇敢地向前冲。

哭，也是一种表示勇敢的方法吧!

雨过了，不如试一试看着天空，我相信彩虹会出现的。

对啊!! 一切都还好呢!

Trying As Hard As I Can

Gonna talk a bit about my life. I don't have any routinity except doing my thesis and my side job as a teacher. I am teaching kids, start from four years old until secondary students. As I am not too good with kids, sometimes I like to complain about my job with someone. They spit, they play, they hit, they pinch, and they behave unpolite (verbal and non-verbal). "Is that what a little kid suppose to behave and say?" Those questions come through my mind every single day.

What I understand is, as a great teacher, what I should do is to make sure that they also grow with good attitude, not only good in their school performances. I can't find any way to make them realize that they are wrong. Even though I tried every way, like I speak firmly that they are wrong, what's wrong with their attitude, give them punishment when they do it, and give them reward if they can show me the good attitude. It didn't work at all!! I am fully understand that as a college student that studies psychology should have able to handle this kind of situation very well, but I fail.

I won't give up, I still have two more months to keep trying every ways I have. I don't want them to grow into a bad attitude boy/girl.

New Beginning

Thanks to Tina ( http://little-mstina.blogspot.com/) I got my mood back to write, and even asked her to help me so many times. She got a really nice blog there, and the sweet stories will make the one who read it envying her sweet love life. Wish you happy always there, and wait for your wedding invitation of course! Miss you a lot my friend.. <3

This is my first entry for 2012, and I don't know where I shall start from. Everything has changed, even better, or maybe even worse. So many things happened, that's why I decided to write about my "New Beginning".

The first thing that comes through my mind is my study. I am on the way doing my thesis right now. This is not the end of the journey in my life, but this is the beginning of my journey. "What should I do after graduate? What kind of job will I have after graduate? How do I survive?" and the questions has never stop haunting my life. Sometimes it makes me afraid, sometimes it makes me even stronger. But, I am so sure that before thinking so far away, the first thing I got to do is to finish my thesis before go to another step of my life.

I have a big dream to chase. For some people, my dream is a small matter, but for me, it's not an easy thing to deal with. What is it? I wish I have the chance to study my master degree in Singapore. I have to find way how to cover the living fees, and study's fee too (looking for financial aid, but have no clue till now). Or the second option is to work in Singapore, but I just don't have enough confidence. I am not good in speaking English, and Mandarin. I am not experienced. All i got is I am willing to work as hard as I can, if I am given the chance to.

This is just a small beginning of my life. Will tell more in next post.

Never stop believing, because by having the faith, you will see the chance

Emotion Management of Mine

HOW TO CONTROL YOUR EMOTION?

Sebelum masuk pada topik yang asli, ada beberapa hal yang ingin saya sampaikan..

Setelah sekian lama beristirahat dari blog, sepertinya saya mulai lupa dengan adanya blog ini. Hari ini ketika saya menyalakan Facebook saya, tiba - tiba mendapatkan notification dari salah satu teman saya, Tina Merwati, yang memberitahu saya bahwa Blog tidak pernah diupdate lagi. Saya kemudian membuka Blog saya, dan apa yang ditemukan? Banyak yang memberikan comment - comment.

First, thanks to Tina Merwati that reminds me that I own a blog..:)
And then, for those who read my blog before, thanks for giving the comments, I'll try to post some more..
Thanks for The support that you give to me.. :D

WHAT DOYOU USUALLY DO WHEN YOU ARE IN A BAD MOOD CONDITION? WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU ARE FRUSTATED? WILL YOU JUST PUNCH ANYONE WHO MAKE YOU ANGRY, SAD, OR EVEN BAD MOOD?

I am someone who easily got a bad mood attack.. I am someone who is so sensitive, that I am easily being so blue.. But the Question is, "What do I usually do to manage my swingy mood?"

I usually do my hobby.. Playing games, listening to music.. Yes, it works!! BUT, it doesn't solve the problem, and that makes my bad mood turn back to me when I am in a "nothing to do" condition.

So, the key is in "PROBLEM SOLVING".

1. Identify the problem.
What makes you bad mood is you don't really know how to solve the problem, or the worst is you dont't actually know what's the problem is! How do I usually identify the problem? I combine it with my hobby, that's listening to music (maybe it's for calming down myself), and try to figure out what's the main problem?

2. Available Alternatives
What does "Available alternatives" mean? It means I have to find the solutions, and not only one! Be creative, and get solutions as many as you can! WHY? When you figure out that you can't solve the problem, you still have the second alternatives.

3. Logical consequences
It means, you have to think about the consequences of the solutions you have made. What's the positive consequences, and what's the negative consequences? So, you can really consider it by the consequences.

4. Make the decision
You are the one who has to make the decision! Make the desicion, what you'd like to do? Which solutions do u choose?

5. DO IT!
The last thing you SHOULD do is, make an ACTION! Dwelling on the problems won't help you solve the problem.

So, when the problem is solved, you will make a better day, and automatically, you'll have a great mood there!
So, be sure that the problem of yours is solved!

My friends told me that, when you encounter problems, you only got two things to do, that's FACE IT, or LET IT BE!

Control your mood.. control your emotion.. control your day..
BE AN ACTOR, BUT NOT A REACTOR!

Thanks guys..

"If I were a teacher"

"SEKOLAHKU"

Hari ini saya kehabisan ide, apa yang harus saya tulis? Oleh karena itu, saya tanyakan kepada teman saya, dan saya diberikan ide untuk menulis tentang "sistem pembelajaran".

Iya, hari ini saya akan menulis tentang "sistem pembelajaran", di mana saya akan membuat peraturan yang saya mau, serta sistem - sistem yang saya inginkan apabila saya memiliki tempat les atau sekolah sendiri.

Hal pertama yang terpikir olehku adalah, sekolah yang saya inginkan tidak harus belajar melulu. Murid - murid saya akan saya berikan waktu 3 kali mata pelajaran untuk mendalami minat mereka sendiri, tentunya dengan dibekali fasilitas - fasilitas, apabila memungkinkan. Saya tahu memang hal tersebut mungkin tidak mudah, tapi saya berkata demikian karena saya berpikir bahwa anak - anak yang selalu dicekoki materi - materi yang ilmiah, sehingga terkadang saya melihat banyak murid yang kaku. Memang nilai rapot, ataupun IP mereka tinggi, namun, mereka tidak pernah tahu apa gunanya mereka mempelajari itu, dan semua materi hanyalah teori belaka. Mungkin akan lebih baik, berikan mereka waktu untuk mendalami minat atau hobi mereka. Selain itu, hal tersebut juga dapat menyegarkan otak mereka, agar mereka tidak jenuh.

Selain hal tersebut, hal yang saya inginkan adalah tidak adanya ujian, namun adanya uji praktek, yaitu penggunaan teori di kehidupan nyata mereka sehari - hari. Ujian tertulis mungkin memang ada baiknya, namun, menurut saya itu membuat anak - anak menjadi kaku, seperti memory eksternal pada komputer, yang hanya sekedar menyimpan data - data, namun mereka tidak mengerti apa manfaatnya.

Pengalaman saya ketika masih SMA yaitu, saya merasa mempelajari mata pelajaran kimia serta fisika sangatlah tidak bermanfaat, dan hanya membuang - buang waktu. Pada hari Sabtu kemarin, saya bertanya kepada guru les yang sudah berpengalaman selama belasan tahun, "Apa sebenarnya manfaat dari mempelajari kimia dan fisika? Padahal kan tidak ada manfaatnya untuk kehidupan sehari - hari saya." Beliau menjelaskan manfaat - manfaatnya, dan membuat saya berpikir, hal itulah yang perlu disampaikan kepada murid - murid.

Aturan - aturan lainnya tetap sederhana, layaknya seperti sekolah - sekolah lain.

Sekian posting dari saya..
