Superbly thank you for this big year. 2020 is the year while I was much grateful. The year that I've never expected. The year when my life suddenly got easier. The year when I become more confident. The year when I found my favorite things to do. The year when I know what I have to do the next year. The year when I couldn't even see anything live, but I was happy. The year when I shouldn't see my enemies.  The year when I didn't see people who I hate. The year when I didn't run every time I became later. The year when I didn't have to go to other villages, to anywhere I couldn't know. The year when I went on an airplane trice by myself. The year when I suddenly want to cut my hair and stop to pull it out or punch my head.  The year when I decided to stop thinking that I was depressed. The year when my eye was getting inflamed and my foot was getting injured. The year when I couldn't see my phone and laptop too. The year when I've got FOMO, cybersickn...

    Dear myself in 2020, What will future really looks like? From the next 10 years I see, there is nothing new on the earth. Its not as terrible as you think and its not as glorious as you imagine. What exists now is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done. A history always repeats. If you think we will starve, drought, be poor and suffer from disease. Trust me, you will be fine in 10 years later. They will release new better foods because synthetic foods will not be scary to eaten. Many years ago, human also refused fruit and vegetables that were fertilized by animal waste. But now, we eat it. We eat hydroponics, broiler chicken and even fast food that is considered dangerous. We like these foods. And we are fine as long as we are in normal consumption range. The famine that exists now is what will be. But the solution has been done is what will be done. We don’t change the world, we repair it from the damage we have made. Two things that I know can...

Kehidupan masyarakat pesisir bergantung pada sebuah komunitas ekosistem di sepanjang pinggiran pantai yang disebut mangrove. Mangrove memberi mereka makan melalui mata pencaharian penduduk setempat di sektor pertambakan dan penjualan batang kayu bakau untuk dijadikan kertas. Mangrove memberi mereka minum lewat perannya dalam mengintrusi air laut sehingga air mineral yang diperoleh dari dalam tanah tidak berasa asin. Mangrove melindungi lingkungan tempat tinggal mereka dengan meredam angin dan gelombang air laut, menjaga mereka dari abrasi, pengikisan pantai, lumpur dan perangkap sedimen. Sebagai masyarakat kota yang tidak pernah merasakan benefit langsung dari mangrove, saya terlalu acuh tak acuh terhadap ancaman kehidupan mangrove. Padahal bagi masyarakat kota, mangrove membantu kehidupan kita dalam mengurangi pemanasan global. Betapa kehidupan perkotaan memberi kontribusi yang sangat besar terhadap isu pemanasan global. Menurut Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), sekt...

Based on the true event. As a student, we have to pay to attend 24/7 in WhatsApp just to check out our mess schedule. Our campus system never had a fixed schedule for learning activities. So, our leader must call the lecture every single day just to check out if they won't teach us tomorrow. That how I start to get those symptoms.  Sometimes, the lecture replies to our leader's message at 10 pm and he would inform that confirmation at 11 pm. I never sleep at more than 12 pm inactive day till one day, I got inform at 11.45 pm that we will start study at 8 am on the next day. I slept early and woke up at 7.50 am. So, I became the crazy girl who runs to the faculty without took a shower at all. Even to brush my teeth, I didn’t have enough time. I had been late and can’t enter class many times because of that. I confess that I have bad time management. To sleep, eat, study, take a bath, I still confuse to decided which activity should I start. But in fact, I had a bad s...

Sejak dihapusnya Bahasa Inggris dari mata pelajaran wajib kurikulum tingkat satuan pendidikan (KTSP 2006) dan menjadi bagian dari muatan lokalnya kurikulum 2013, sudah saatnya kita berpikir lebih kritis lagi terhadap sistem pendidikan negara dalam skala Internasional. Dan bertanya dalam diri tiap insan akademik, “Apakah saya siap untuk proyek industri 4.0 dengan sistem pendidikan seperti ini?”. Apakah ada cukup waktu bagi generasi z, yang baru akan serius mengenal Bahasa Inggris di umur 12 tahun, untuk bersanding dengan elit global lainnya di era 4.0? Apakah adil bagi adik – adik kita nantinya yang akan dituntut memiliki skor TOEFL minimal 550? Padahal Bahasa Inggris bukan lagi mata pelajaran wajib di sekolah dasar. Berdasarkan sejarah perjalanan sistem pendidikan Indonesia, negara mengganti setidaknya 10 kali kurikulum sejak kita merdeka. Dan mungkin, butuh belasan, puluhan, ratusan bahkan ribuan perubahan lagi untuk benar – benar stabil dalam kondisi pendidikan. Tapi mungkin juga t...

Panic buying , sebuah fenomena belanja berlebihan dan penimbunan stok barang dalam satu waktu di tengah merebaknya kasus corona. Fenomena ini baru terasa begitu kita melihat rak – rak kosong di supermarket, kehabisan beberapa bahan pokok serta kelangkaan hand sanitizer dan masker. Ketika diinformasikan ke publik bahwa virus ini memasuki wilayah DKI Jakarta pada awal maret 2020, timbul kecemasan ditengah masyarakat yang kemudian melahirkan tindakan impulsif dengan belanja berlebihan. Berharap dengan banyaknya persediaan dalam rumah kita sendiri, tidak perlu lagi kita belanja keluar dan bertemu dengan banyak orang. Selain infeksi corona yang menular, kepanikan, loss of control dan merasa tidak berdaya juga demikian menular. Dibandingkan langkah kecil mencuci tangan dan memakai masker, bahaya virus corona yang mengancam lebih besar daripada tindakan pencegahannya. Karena itu masyarakat bertindak sendiri tanpa memikirkan resiko lainnya.         ...

“How does a healthy diet affect intellectual and emotional health? Feel like giving up? Not seeing results? Consider this: the LAST thing to grow on a fruit tree… is the fruit” Many of us have lost touch of when we are hungry, truly hungry. We eat because it's time to eat. Even though we are not hungry, we eat. Just eat when you are starving. If you are not hungry, then you don’t have to eat. If you are a little hungry, eat a little and then, honor fullness. When you are full, ah, put the food aside. But the thing is this: you are wasting food.  “if thou shall not waste, though shall not put on on thy waist whatever thou has not wasted” If you really need an extra diet, go ahead. But what is good for one person may not be good for another. You have to find your own way. I mean to eat food, what kind of food you can eat. The context includes drinking. Don’t push this beyond anything else. The principle of LIFE is not dieting. Diet doesn’t work. It works initially. And it...

"We have sworn to serve, don't we? Become valuable in public, don't we have to find an alternative way?" a few weeks ago, I share how to make your own hand sanitizer. I said we could use alcohol >60%, aloe vera, and essential oil. And .. I've got sooo many responses from senior, ya know 😊 "you must use WHO standard if u re the real pharmacy student" "With your comparative concentration is totally wrong" "because of that, alcohol become expensive either" "I dare you, this is not effective at all" "if made a medical product as simple as it is, we have been married aloong time ago. not been surf to a more professional degree" okay, okay... sssttt 🤐😑 first, lemme check out the WHO standard. I linked below that explanation. "  GuidToLocalHandSanitizer.Pdf  " Now, where did exactly we get the peroxide? How did we, as an ordinary guy buy that? It's too difficult sourcing...

“The viruses worked when you would believe you sick, it would happen to you. The more you scare, the more it comes close. Your bodies produce immune system based on your thought. So it's super important things to feed your thought” In a situation like this.. stay still at home to reduce the contagion of the virus, apply that warning in your daily routine, and listen to your government. But.. stay chill. Calm and peace are the keys. The world we live in is too noisy. As an introvert, I almost give thanks to corona who made this temporary peace. I know, I know. You would label me selfish. But isn't it a time to reflect? With our democratic system, politic, public seekers, invasion, even the war.. it just brings more chaos. So these viruses came and created a silence. But nothing different, both of them still made us live in anxiety. And did you realize that the smooth line between crowd and silent is peace? Whatever will happen.. when you have a wave of peace, e...

I found I stopped blogging around 6 years and want to make some new faces within. Six years.. I lost inspiration, most energy, and motivation. So today, with the first publishing after many years I want to say hi and thanks to everyone who pushed me to start writing again. You will find something different like new content. Previously, I just write an opinion and random things here. So, I added health and science stuff. I am using English in a few contents from now. I know I am not an expert in English like many of my friends. And you will find so much bad grammar here. But I am trying to expand my area and develop my knowledge. Honestly, I had a lot of unconfident either. But I felt like I can’t stop. I want to do something that many people around my life rarely do. So with my unconfident, I will write in 2 languages. I am sorry if you feel uncomfortable with my bad English. You just don’t have to read the English content or you can leave this blog like.. forever. This blog ...
