Don't be too excessive

Hello, my friends, long time no write here. This time i want to share a story with you. Have you ever experienced somebody  gives you an excessive  compliment in your life ?  I think in our life everybody got it. But the matter is,  what kind of compliment?  Ok, it might be varied for everybody.

It happened to me in in the mall by a shopkeeper girl two days ago. Hehehehe.... At that time i was looking for something. I had to match the colour with my dress. Then, i found one, and it was pink. From the begining i chose the dress the shopkeeper was so vigorous. She helped me finding the dress and lured me to try it. She gave a positive compliment for every dress that i tried.  From all the dresses that i tried, the pink one was completely fit for me. Then, i decided to buy it.

Here an excessive compliment went..
When i was about to pay it to the cashier, all at once she said "You are beautiful like an artist" ...
Oh My God. Hearing what she just said, i didin't react for a moment then i said "you don't have to say like that"  and my friend Nurul, she just smiled ....  i am not a complimented girl or spoiled girl. So, when i heard it, it was strange. I am frozen girl.  I mean rarely do i give compliment to others. Sometimes i just reply in one word "good"  that's enough not like her who gave an excessive compliment.  Hahahahaha. But it doesnt mean i don't need the compliment. Of course i need it to boost spirit and yet not in such an excessive way. Exceptional, if i have husband i want to be complimented and spoiled by him, hahahahahaa.

Finally, to attract costumers you just have to behave well. Just be patient when you are welcoming them. Keep smiling, and keep showing that you are vigorous to accept them. Just give the compliment duly. That's enough, don't be too excessive ya...  Tks

The Prince Of Pony Hill Is Mr. William Albert Ardley

Ouch,  i have tried hard to get original manga of Candy-Candy until i contacted all the phone number from Kaskus and another social networking just to have it. Before i continue telling you just look at my trying hard just to get manga of Candy-candy:

then,

then,

then

then,

then,

then,

That's what i have done. It's hard for me to buy the goods by online. Except, the package and money given at the same time. It is what we call "ada uang ada barang" or "No money no Goods" ..

I"m not buying the Manga yet as i still consider it. If i want to collect the Manga i will buy it.  Yup, it's so old and as far as i know itsn't printed anymore.
But i have another solution how to read Manga of Candy Candy.
Yup, i was googling and i found this site ....

And Happy me, as today i have finished this Manga online. And then the question is, why i was so determined wanting to read Manga Candy-Candy?
It because it is unfinished interesting cartoon for me. I just watched it until in the middle. So i have to struggle looking for Manga or DVD to get to its end.

So, i can tell you now that i know the ending of Candy-Candy based on Manga Online.
I can answer my curiousity toward the question, who is the prince of Candy? How about the Candy's friends?

Yup, in Candy's life there are 4 men: The Prince of Pony Hill, Anthony, Terry, and Mr Albert (actually there are the others just like Archie and Alistair but i mention that have special place in Candy's heart you can read for the rest).

• The Prince Of Pony Hill is the misterious man whom Candy meets when she is 6 years old. 
• Anthony is Candy's First Love and yet he dies when  they are horseback riding with Candy. 
• Terry is the man whom Candy fell in love with after Antony Dies and the first man who kisses Candy. But they breaks up because Terry owes to Suzana as she saves him from fatal accident at the stage.
• Mr. Albert is the man who helps Candy when she is almost drawning and gets amnesia for a moment. Mr. Albert is always be there when Candy needs help.

And Finally the truth reveals. Who is Mr. Albert and Uncle William that has adopted Candy becomes member of  Ardley Family? 
 
Yup, what a lovely story...
Mr. Albert is Uncle William that considered by Candy as an old man.  And Mr. Albert is also the Prince Of Pony Hill.

And Here are some  pictures that i took from www.mangafox.com:

When Candy is 6 years old, she meets Prince of Pony Hill or Mr. Albert or Uncle William

Candy Remember his saying : little girl you look much prettier when you smile

Mr. Albert or Uncle William in disguise

Candy's first encounter with Uncle William or Mr. Albert or the prince of Pony Hill

Candy is being Surprised

The confession of Mr. Albert or Uncle William as The Prince of Pony Hill

She gets closer to her Prince

It was the beginning of their encounter :)

Even though i told you it is a lovely story but it is also has lots of sad stories. The better you read the complete/whole story. Why i focused on Mr. Albert or uncle William, Prince of Pony Hill?
It because it is the most misterious part since the beginning....

It is a long serial. And it has different effect  either reading it from Manga or watching the DVD. I feel by watching it through TV we can feel it emosionally and yet by reading from Manga it is less emosional.

And there are some reasons to mark Candy - Candy as favourite one:

1. It teachs us to be ourselves, how to survive, how to be tough, how to have golden heart. 
2. It gives us idea to choose our own path and pursuing our dreams. 
3. It gives the example how to get along well with our friends, parents.
4. It helps us to keep our spirit. 
5. It gives us lesson life has so many conditions: Death, Parting, Encounter, Happy, Sad etc.  and Be prepare with that.
6. It reminds us to care with our surroundings.
7. It tells us to have positive thingking.
8. It shows us what love is.
9. etc.

But, from Manga i read, it is untold who is Candy's Parents. I have Candy-Candy sesion 2 but i am not watching it yet.. i'm gonna tell you someday ya ......
 

Let's Our Assistant Meet Her Son

This story is begun when i arrived at my lodge. At that time i saw a five -year-old boy with her mother that we know as our assistant. I asked her about the boy.

"Is he your son" i asked her.
"Yess, he is my son and just arrived here along with my husband from Bumiayu", she said.

Then, i feel pity for her. Because he  has left her son and her husband in her town for working here.
And i just wonder  about her husband.
Is her husband working?
Of course I don't know about it. But i think if her husband as a truly breadwinner she won't work here in crowded Jakarta.

As i know Javanese women they are very strong. They are as a truly breadwinner not their husband.
My firiends and me, we have the same sight about her.
She is the most innocent assistant that we ever had here and she is newcomer here. 
I mean, she cant hide something. If i have a bone to pick for something she will report it to the owner of our lodge. She can't be more selective to what our saying. Which one must be kept, must be shared or told to other.

But we agree that she is so kind. I believe she will never become a sudden unpredictable assistant just like the other that we ever had. But don't forget with the Job, stay focus even though husband and child around you.
And  if i were the owner of lodge i would do the same with The Mrs. to let her gather with her little family occasionally.

Just a Moment at Suramadu Bridge

Finaly i can say that i ever been to Suramadu Bridge and yet it just a moment hehehehe. At that night, my friend told us, where did we go now? Then, i told them, i wanted to see Suramadu Bridge because i never been there.
It is located  near or not far away from Surabaya city. As soon as we arraived, we got off from the car adn took pucture.

LIGHT at The Bridge

Another Angle

I heard, it's not allowed to get off from the car. But because at that time we didin't see the police, so we could get off and take the photos and yet just  for a moment.  I am not so satisfied. So, i wanna go back again and take a lot of photos heheeheheheeh... of course in the Day and Night.
According to people's view, Suramadu Bridge looked so beautiful in the night. It because the Lights. So, i thank to my friends who took me there. Oh yeah, a bit information, this bridge connects Java Island (Surabaya) with Madura island (Bangkalan).. and after we took the picture we also went around Bangkalan, but for a moment. We saw an old Bangkalan Castle. That's a part of  enjoying Surabaya last week.

And, how about you my friends? Heve you ever been to Suramadu Bridge and  get off from the car and take the photos while the police isn't there?

Pudak, Traditional Food From Surabaya

Yup, i was in Surabaya a couple days ago .  We were here to report something for our internal magazine.
But Today i want to share my culinary experience. That night i tried eating this:

In the night when we were  heading to the community's camp, he took us to this small shop. He bought Pudak and let us to try it. It is made from rice flour and brown sugar. its isn't too sweet it is enough and yet my friend told me it was too sweet. Yup, different people different taste....

Beneath it all i wanted to buy SEMAR (One of the  figures of Punakawan) but i couldn't find it, so I decided to buy a pair of Spoon and Fork with the Arjuna and Shinta on top of it because i want something that still related to Puppet. It will be my lovely collection ....Oh ya there also miniature of Borobudur or Prambanan Temple .....

Jam Gadang

Have you ever been to Bukittinggi, West Sumatera?
Yup, if somebody asks me like that, i absolutely will answer, "yes, i  have ever been to Bukittinggi and seen Gadang watch or jam gadang"....  heheehehe,...
Finally, i can experience myself ..... what is Jam Gadang  like... and Just see these the pictures :

Jam Gadang, Buktitinggi

Pose in front of Jam Gadang

Notice for number 4, it can be seen IIII not IV

Unfortunately, when i saw it, the sky was cloudy but it didin't bother me at all.
according to the guide's explanation, it is said, Jam Gadang is built in 1826 and the watch itself came from the Dutch in 1926 brought through bayur bay. It is believed that the machine of this watch there are only two in the world. The other is Big Ben in england.
Then, the architect of Jam Gadang is Sutan Rajo Gigi Ameh. The Guide also told me in Bukittinggi, it is forbidden to build  a building higher than Jam Gadang. So, Jam Gadang is the maximum of height for the building there.

For the number IIII, why it isn't written IV?
The guide told me at that time there were 4 (four) people who died from above of the Watch (when it was built), so to respect the people who died it is written IIII not IV. I think you need to ask another person about it.
What do you think about this "Jam Gadang? "

I Mourn for "Supersic"

The death of Marco Simoncelli has become the News Maker. For me it becomes my attention.
It is a little bit different with my feeling when Steve Jobs Died.
Why is it like this?
MotoGP, i don't follow this racing everytime and yet i know some of the racers. And talking about Steve Jobs, i confess, i almost didin't recognize him, it because i haven't his gadget and i am so old fashioned about  technology. But i read his story. We can learn from his toughts to be the best.

Back to Simoncelli.  The news of his death has touched my emotional side. How can?
Yup, it because his death has been seen by all the people all over the world and it is recorded. You can see this  horrific crash everytime or you can search it by internet.

Seeing his video, hm, i could  imagine of i were the racers who  hit him accidentally. It will make you feel so guilty. Because it cause somebody dies. I am sure people will shocked seeing the video.  My friend told me like this " I have estimated he will have short life if i see his racing style, aggresive, but without him the race is not fun ".

I can feel his parent feeling. As they were there seeing the race. His father, his Mother and his girlfriend. Losing a pride son is so hurt. He was so young.

The crash taken from dailymail.co.uk

Marco's father taken from dailymail.co.uk

Marco's Mother taken from dailymail.co.uk

Simoncelli's girlfriend taken from dailymail.co.uk

Early Simoncelli, before he had afro-style curly hair taken from dailymail.co.uk

 
Oh yeah the first time i heard the news of his death from the FB, my friend wrote on her status "RIP for Simoncelli" then i became aware why on twitter my another friend said the race has been canceled.
Then, i read the article about his death.

Furthermore,  it becomes the news maker, because his achievements and he was Valentino Rossi's Friend. Yup, he has so many good achievements, and he could be a better racer in the futurfe. But the fact, he has gone.

According the article that i read. It is said that his helmet was knocked off from his head. It makes him injured severely. Why it can be like that?
My experience wearing the helmet is depend on the helmet itself and the hair.
When i use the helmet without my hair tied, it feels very uncomportable. Everytime my head is shaked, the helmet almost comes off. But Once, i tied my hair and use the helmet, i feel it strongly sticks on my head. When i saw Simoncelli, we can see his hair is disheveled. It means the helmet comes off because of his hair... but i don't know about it for sure, because it can be caused by the strong crash and others...

To lose the loved one, is so hard especially when he gone too soon and he wasn't suffering from the disease at all before. It will be different, if the loved one dies because of the disease, we will get ready to accept this.

"To die it needs only second, but to rise a man it needs more time"  .....
 
So, for the motorcyclists don't forget to use the Helmet for your safety... i believe it can avoid you from the fatal accident. And my deep condolence for his family and team. RIP Marco ....

NB: People born with his personality and enjoy it... and that's him ...

NEW Clothes For Idul Fitri

Display

My question is,  Idul Fitri is about to come, Have you bought  new clothes?
Some of you perhaps will say, "yes, i have bought it", or maybe "Not yet, i will buy it tomorrow" ..
Okey, it doesn't matter. But for me, i concern about it. I mean ... i have already bought it. I bought it last month. Do you believe me ? Oh yeah, you must believe in me...

Why i bought the clothes so early?
The reason is simple.. i don't like the crowded ....
Yup, if  Ramadhan Comes, people will have the same thought. They will go to the market or to the mall looking for new clothes, it makes the situation of mall or market more crowded.
I don"t like that. Seeing many people  i will feel dizzy .....

Even, last year i didin"t buy new clothes for Idul Fitri at all.  I still remember, last year in Solo We had an Event "APMCHUD" ... and after the event ended,  we went to Batik Laweyan... I found some nice Batik.. i bought two of them ...  i kept it. I planed to wear it in the Big Day "Idul Fitri" .... and it helped me avoiding the crowded Market or Mall .... beside that, when we have bought new clothes, we could feel more relaxed ... our mind didin't have  to think so much... we can continue our daily activity without any annoyance ..

Here, i have some tips :

1.  Buy new clothes when it still far away with The Big Day "Idul Fitri".
2. If you find the beautiful clothes, you can buy it. Even though you don't need it. You can keep it for the big day. But you have match it with the event. If you find the event, go ahead buying it ..
3. Before buying the clothes you have to try it first, so, you won't be disappointed if it doesn't fit in you. 
4. Just use the Debit Card, it will help to avoid them giving you candy as exchange means ..
5. Notice the Discount Coupun, if you given the discount coupon, make sure it all used by you .... or you can ask the cashier how to use it appropriately.
6. Happy shooping and good luck.

Harry Potter 3D

3D

In my life watching 3D movie is something new. Last Friday i watched Harry Potter7 3D movie and it was for the first time. My friend, Nurul who asked me to watch it. I told her i was reluctant for watching Harry Potter Movie as i ever watched the DVD and yet for 3D i had never seen it, so i decided to watch it.

Watching 3D movie, we're given 3D glasses... we got the second line seat. At that time the seat was fully booked only left the front seat. When the movie was begun i used the glasses. I felt it was a bit annoyed.
What makes it different with ordinary movie is, we involve with the scene. I mean, when the scene goes down we feel it. We feel the sensation. We feel as going down as the scene did.
Once i opened my glasses and saw the picture wasn't clear, so we don't have to take off the glasses to enjoy 3D Movie (you said "of course"). 

Or i can say, if you ever been to Dufan and enjoy one of the spot or recreational facilities just like "Journey to the centre of  earth" it feels like that .... but in Dufan only the seats that sway no glasses.
I really enjoy 3D movie and yet the glasses so bothers me. I was a bit scuffed around my temples (pelipis-red)... I want the 3D Movie without using the glasses, can we make it? And what do you think about it my friends?

My Complaint Is Responded




Let's Fly with GIA :) taken from ELTARI AIRPORT KUPANG :)

 

Yup, have you registered to be a member of GFF or Garuda Frequent Flyer ??
Actually, i have registered last year as far as i remember. But i had a problem. I forgot my GFF number. I didin't write it, or i forgot where i wrote it. So, i couldn't log in to my account.

Next, i registered again. For this time i did it and there is confirmation to my email from GFF Center if my registration is successful.

"we believe that your current details already exist on our current database as GFF temporary member with number XXXXXX" .....................

That is the confirmation .....
Sorry, i don't write the confirmation wholely...but the point is, because i ever registered before, so when i registered again, GFF  recognized my identity.... at the last they told me like this :

"we could not process your new regsitration further because one member only allowed to having only one GFF membership"....

What is that mean?
Yup, when i tried to log into my account, there is announcement disable and account is locked... i thought it was because i registered twice.  And their last confirmation to me implies it..

I didin't stop, i wrote my complaint to GFF:
"My GFF Number XXXX But I can't log in with my password.... can you tell me my password"?

What makes me surprised was, they replied my complaint.
"Please be informed that you can log in GFF website using your GFF Number XXXX as your User ID  and you can use your XXXXX as password with XXXX" ...

Then, i did what they told me. Unfortunately,  i couldn't log in again...so, i  sent my complaint again.
"i have used my GFF number and XXXX as the password but still i can't log in. what's wrong? i read there is statement "account is locked" ...what happens? thanks"....

I know exactly they will respond again and yes it happened.

"We already reset your password, you can try to log in with username your GFF number XXXXX and your password XXXX"...

Hm... yeah, they gave me new number.....and when i tried to log in with my new number it was susccessful.

Here i wanna say again thanks for all your (GFF Center) responds to my complaints.....
