Heart-related issues should be kept personal, right? Therefore, in some very rare moments, I’d perhaps write one or two to help myself out from any stressful situation. This category would probably contain melancholic blabbers. Watch out!
It’s been a (super) long time and I really need a break from my hard-work-to-keep-me-sane project. This topic is a bit taboo, some people said. To me, they are just avoiding something that they couldn't handle. This isn't taboo, this is very much important.

Beberapa waktu lalu bermunculan tulisan mengenai betapa pentingnya menikah ketimbang sekolah. Bahwa banyak perempuan cantik di luar sana yang masih ‘nganggur’ karena disinyalir memilah milih laki-laki. Mereka dianggap ‘menunggu’ laki-laki tampan, baik, dan kaya.

The ‘sharenting’ phenomena has brought … Continue reading Why I don’t post my daughter’s picture on my social media? (They call it Sharenting)
For an international student, bureaucracy sometime becomes a backstop for education. Well, this is my story dealing with YÖK (Yükseköğretim Kurulu) or Higher Education Council of Turkey. My experience is quite rare actually because I’ve never met any other students –Indonesian or other nationality- shared the same problem.
