International Coffee Day: Expresso Yourself

I'm baaaack. Hari ini untuk pertama kalinya minum kopi ala kafe. No sugar. Sueer. Jadi pengen punya coffee shop deh.

Sesi dibuka oleh Pak Moelyono dari PT Taman Delta Indonesia. Beliau ngejelasin perkembangan industri kopi di Indonesia. Tahu gak, 20 tahun yang lalu, kita pernah jadi penghasil kopi nomor wahid di dunia. Tapi sekarang kita cuma berada di urutan keempat.

Penjelasan kedua disampaikan Giuseppe Trovato dari Zicaffe. Dia ngejelasin asal muasal kopi macam espresso yg terkenal di Italia. mana kopi udah jd gaya hidup di negeri pasta itu. Jadi inget temen yg buka coffee shop di Tuscany.

Ada juga Nugie, barista dari ABCD Coffee, yang sekarang udah jd instruktur. Terakhir ada Chicco Jerikho sama Rio Dewanto, pemain sekaligus barista (Chicco) dan pemilik (Rio).

Like Reborn say, "Ciaossu."

Dream On, Dream Big

 
When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother
What will I be
Will I be pretty
Will I be rich
Here's what she said to me

Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
What will be, will be

When I was a little, I thought I'd be marry at 25, have two children of my own, and live in a house with a patch of garden. But life took a different turn. Not that I'm complained about it. I'm the type to go with the flow. Easily sway into something if I thought it would make me interested. And right now, I'm in the middle of a crossroad again. This time, however, even if on impulse, it would be some big decision I would take. I'm going abroad at the end of the year to study Japanese in its homeland. Time to leave the safety of my nest, my comfort zone. Who knows, maybe I would find what I'm looking for on the other part of the world, eh?

Nuts and Bolts

It's a lot like nuts and bolts - if the rider's nuts, the horse bolts!

2015 Reading Challenge

Meskipun dulu gagal ikutan reading challenge mystery/thriller, kali ini pengen nyoba ikutan reading challenge dari sini. Kenapa pilih itu, karena menantang gw untuk baca buku selain kesukaan gw. 

Overall ada 52 buku (karena ada yang trilogi). Gw usahain semua buku adalah buku berbahasa Indonesia, kecuali kalo kepepet :p Udah ngubek-ngubek kontainer di rumah, jadi sebagian besar bukunya siap dibaca. Sisanya minjem di perpus aja. Wish me luck!!!
