I dream to be... (future plans)

If you are asking me about my future plan, actually, I have not thought seriously about that. My future plans change as my mood changes. I am still adolescent which characteristic is moody, then I only have two plans which can survive until now. My future plans which can survive amid my moody feeling are Novelist and Singer.

When reading becomes my hobby, I am thinking to be a novelist. “I am exactly going to be a novelist” I said at that time. However, I have several problems, such as when I am writing my story, I am stuck. I cannot finish it, I have no idea to end it but when I have an idea, I have no time to continue writing. I have so many tasks to be done on time, which means I need to stop writing my own stories. When my dream is about to be a novelist, I feel incompetence and hopeless. It will be more hopeless because I write my story in English. If I want my story be published, here in Indonesia, I need to work twice to translate in Indonesian. As I said, I want to be a novelist and I do not want to give up. I am still struggling to make and finish my stories. I do not care what people will say, all that I care about is my progress in writing my stories.

Singing. I love singing so much and dream to be a singer. Nevertheless, I want to be singer as I want, have a free soul. I hate to be bent with schedule of performing something. If professional singer is like that, I will reject to be professional singer. Singing is my expression of what I feel. I do practice to sing and I do singing in my church as one of the singers. Then if professional singer has so many rules, I will not be a professional singer. I will sing when I want to sing.

Both singer and novelist are my future plans but as I said before, it still can be changed. I am moody person but not a type of person who will not try to make my dream come true. I do practice and make my dream come true in my life. If I cannot publish my stories as an example, I still can be a blog writer. There is nothing impossible; just do I brave enough to keep my dream on track? And my answer is Yes, I try to keep it on track as I can.

Letters (habitual activity)

Everybody has habitual activities and so do I. I have many habits but I do not consciously count it as habit. I can recognize some habits of mine but my family or friends tell some others. Here, I would like to share one of my habitual activities.

My habitual activities are not far from books. I love reading books starting from novel, comic, newspaper till my textbook -okay for this one I have to-. Marley everyday I read book or words. Usually I spend one or two hours to read novel. Right now, I am reading Thirst from Christopher Pike. This novel is very interesting because Pike uses India mythology background, something new for me. I am familiar with Greek, Europe, Scandinavia or Eastern mythology, except India. Here, once I found that this mythology is interesting I cannot stop reading.

Reading is my hobby but after being my hobby for more than six years, it becomes my habit. I cannot stop reading and I am sure you can't. Everyday we read many words, like caution words etc. For me, reading is something that makes my brain alive. This is my imagination's food, I cannot have wild or crazy or unusual imagination if I lack of words that I can explore from my habit, reading.

Habit is made from something we do continuously. Reading is something that I do continuously -sometimes forcefully- and now reading is my habit. Making reading as my habit is not that easy but I love this activity. Sometimes I get bored with reading but unconsciously I read something even though I get bored with that. Then,I would like to ask you all, do have a hobby that becomes your habit??

EWD ?!

It was a hot sunny day when I heard about EWD and of course with reluctant feeling. I was absolutely sure with my feeling because I had two initiations already and unfortunately I must have another initiation, yes that was right, EWD!

The first thing came up through my mind was that EWD was boring. I asked why must I have two initiations, no, three! I did not like be wrapped on something like this but I was there, in the hall with feeling very tired. I was not a type of person who likes new circumstance. Honestly I preferred to be alone in my own world. There, in pre-EWD time I joined half-hearted and had no interest.

September 7th…
I woke up at 6.00 a.m. and had prepared myself to fight for two more days at Wonogondang. We were going to go there by trucks which were ready. After arriving in Wonogondang we needed to build our tent. Then after building the tent, we have several games until twilight came. When the sun was gone and the appearance of dark came up, we were going to have ‘jurit malam’. It was a cold night with the biting wind blew through my chest and I hated to be there. The ‘Jurit malam’ went on and it was tiring me a lot but yeah at least my heart was beating because of some scary stories –I loved it-.

I had spent around 2 days with one night staying there and all that I could say, it was nice, quite interesting but just not quite right for me. If I had a change to repeat it, I would say no, big no.

Fried Egg

Honestly, I am confused about what will I write. Food and drink, what kind of food and drink I will write?? I have no idea. Then, like a flash light, an idea of explaining fried egg come up. Fried egg, hm... I love it, how about you?

Firstly, some fine-big eggs will be chosen. It is selected from so many eggs and the fine-big eggs will be separated to go to another step of cooking. When a frying pan is waiting for them, they will be mixed in one bowl to have a yellow dense color of egg.

Secondly, the ingredients which make the taste of the eggs even better are prepared. They may consist of garlic, chili, some vegetables, meat or nothing. The taste of taster becomes the dominant part when putting the ingredients. Some people would like to mash their ingredients, but it would always be mixed with the eggs.

Finally, when the frying pan with the oil is hot, the eggs will be cooked. The style of cooking depends on us as a chief. Then, after the ingredients and the eggs are well-cooked, it can be served hotly with rice or not.

How is she?

Firstly, I don't know whether you know this person or not but for me, this person is beautiful and cute. Well, let me make it more specific, this person is a female. I hope that you'll be able to guess it because I am doubting that this lecture have lectured you already.

My beautiful and cute lecture has dark skin, or dark brown skin. Her hair is dark straight hair which sometimes is bent -but somehow, makes her looks more beautiful-. Her eyes colour is dark brown like mostly an Asian eyes people. Her egg-shaped face is very cute when she smiles (but sometimes her smile is more jaded than excited). Then, if you look at her face you will agree with me that she is beautiful.

Examining her body in solemn way, is also interesting. She has slim body and her high is medium-high, I guess. She often wears Batik if she teaches in class and it fits to her shape. When I once saw her photo in Facebook, she wore Kebaya which is very splendor and glamor -it makes her look so beautiful actually-.

Finally, just guess who she is, if you know her. She has dark brown skin, dark straight hair, egg-shaped face, wears glasses and has slim body. The distinguish feature of her is her dark brown skin which is very exotic and unusual for Javanese, because her dark brown skin is not typically Indonesian skin. Do you know her?

A riddle of an old place....

When you are walking from the giant main gate, entering our daily busy place, you might not recognize this place. Then, I would like to tell you a secret. There's place hidden between the crowd, a place where you can lay your tiredness down, and have some peaceful break times.

This is an old place hidden between the glasses and door. Where, before your feet bring you there, the trees, the grass, and the sky will omnipresent guide you from the alley. The black floor-tile will no longer in your step when you are in this old room. A homy atmosphere will also greet you as you open the creamy door. Then, if you were inside, you would hardly put your feet out.

A gold old board written in a black ink is there, stuck above the door and ignored by the others. A brown wooden stuff also becomes one of the ignored things outside. If you were in front of this old door, looking back, you might see a busy life separated from where you stand. The last clue in this secret I will tell you is, this is an exclusive room which can be join by a particular people.

This room is a very comfortable place where you can have the peaceful break time and once you found it, you are gonna love it as me, just guess it. ^^

I'm -quite- fat girls (I guess) but I enjoy being fat. Some friends asked why, well honestly, I have ideology, quite strange maybe. First, I don't wanna be sexy or look sexy because 'eyes catching' or fashion reason. Second, Whatever I am, I really praise God for my body, and I appreciate it. The last is, If now, I have a diet, it all because of my health priority.

My hobbies are reading, writing stories, sleeping, shopping and there are so many more I can't write it down. Reading and writing are the top two of my hobbies. Reading is just like a magical gate which brings me into another world. It enriches my idea. After reading and get some new idea, I continue writing stories. Beside I can write my own stories, writing helps me a lot developing sentences and practicing my grammar. Writing here both in Indonesia and English.

Finally, that is who am I. I am Yosi who have two sisters, have strange ideology about fat and love reading, writing and cat. Well, tank you for reading and
'Hiii! '\(^o^) /
