Welcoming May!

Hello again ppl ;) how's April? Hmm my days in here are still flat, going to class everyday, being rushed to keep continuing my research because of the deadlines. And yeah, unknowingly, May is here alr! How fast time flies ~~ Well this upcoming 1 month will be still the same for me, and even will be busier than before. On the mid of May will be having coursework's assessments. Then on the end of May finally all of my deadline are done. In June, on the second week, will be having the final exam, after that, I'm free! This is my last term in ISC so after this summer holiday I'll be studying in LUMS. Gonna work hard on all this exams and coursework's, have to do my best! *fingercrossed*

After exams will be staying in Lancs for a little while, waiting for the result, have to pack all my belongings out of my room, and of course travel to Manchester with friends! Woohoo just can't wait for all of this to be finished act :") will be arrived in Jkt on the 22nd of June, dad's birthday and Jakarta's birthday. Can't wait to meet my sister and mom. And, lots of shopping in Jkt cause in June there'll be Jakarta Great Sale

Have alr set up a list of what to do in here while waiting in June, have to download lots and lots of videos, cleaning up mr room, buying goods to be brought to Indo. Yeah the next comeback to UK this Oct will be my 1st year anniv in Lancs. How fast! Have to leave my present room as well, talked w/ Erin few days ago and we felt quite sad to separating from each other starting from next year. She's a very great flatmate and we're alr so into each other, lol.

Have made a list of what to do in Indo as well. Hanging out w/ chika, mami, Chery. Eat many many cakes from dad's birthday cake. My cousin's upcoming wedding where I'll meet my big family after long time. And, travel abroad in this lebaran holiday (maybe for this one... not sure at all)

Hmmm tried my best to enjoying my days in here. Enjoying Lancs's green view by walking to sports centre, accompanying Chery go to the gym. Meeting friends, experiencing cook another new dishes, etc. 

Of course, sincerely can't wait for June but still be grateful for what I have until today, and will do my best and keep concentrating on my study first

new routine ever morning & evening 

have been missing my sister so bad!!! X) long time haven't met each other or even Skype. Can't wait to see her again this June!

 the statue in front of city council

Visited this park yesterday, it is located just in front of the Lancaster city council. My first time been here, before I only seeing this park from the bus. Went here because ytd I was doing my FES research with 2 other ppl. Asking local ppl some questionnaire to be filled. 

Spring is here!!!!!! Look at the beautiful flowers, nowadays those flowers are all around the city, so beautiful (even though spring is coming quite late, lol) there are plenty cherry blossom trees as well in. Love Love Love the view in spring!

One third of the way to Sport Centre. Yeah it a very very LONG way.. but the view is quite fascinating and worth to walk (as long as the weather is good), or just take it as an exercise, lol

 Like I said earlier, so glad to be able to take my jumper out of the cupboard (finally!)

The weather in here is coming to fine! Though it's still raining some days but it keeps getting warmer and warmer..

 The so green Lancaster University. Yeah all of this big field are still owned by campus, and this are just few part of it, the photo is bad (since I'm not a good photo taker) but the actual view is much more better than this

There's a lake as well inside the area of uni. There are swans, frogs, and ducks living there. Visit the edge of the lake with Chery when the weather is fine few days ago. Yeah Lancs Uni own those big fields, a farm,a  lake, hundred of houses (accommodation for students), and even a factory and one windmill. Don't be amazed if you see some ducks walking around campus in the morning. They like to travel around! lol

Bought this for the second time when the weather is fine days ago. There's a home-made ice cream shop on campus, it's only open on sunny day. So when it's open there's always long queue for it ( cause the ice cream is so good) These are Irish Vanilla and Oreo Chocolate Chip flavor.

funny convo in Line, lol. Love all Line's stickers!! 

Went back ytd. Easter weekend in Bandung. My first time seeing Bandung til this close and I like it! Went to Trans Studio as well and play several rides that I've never tried before. Photos taken in Waroeng Kopi (if I'm not mistaken) in Bandung

And,,,, represent my pretty niece, Audy! Yeah she's my cousin's first daughter. I've never met her directly. But she's simply beyond cute, right?

 GAP-Jakarta. Fit this t-shirt and I really really like it! Though it's quite pricey but I have successfully beg for mom to buy this one for me, hehe..

at Grand Royal Panhegar Hotel Bandung

Well after all, so happy cause June is near by alr. My forever favorite month is here! woohoo! June is my favorite cause it is the month while I'm having holiday (or with exam before it), my & dad's birthday (cakes and cakes!) and it's the middle of the year, felt quite proud to pass this 6 years quite fastly.

Got a lot of things to do this month. Will post again later after all my deadlines have been passed. lol

Have a great days ahead ppl!!! Enjoy your holiday (if u're on holiday) =p

(ps: photos of the sceneries are not good cause I'm not a good photo taker. The actual view is much much better than it. Come to Lancaster if you like it! promoting :p, lol)

Cheers from the kinda warm Lancaster

Week 9

Hello again ppl. 1 word for this week : tiring. Well it's not tiring because of I have lots of things to do. But, don't know why, don't really have a good feeling since last weekend :(
    Finally done with FES essay. Next, the presentation is coming! hmmm I'm in a group with 3 chinese friends. The topic is quite heavy, literature. Yeah I sincerely have no idea about it but I hope I can do my best and get the best mark on this next Monday.
   Next week, I only have presentation on Monday and that will be the last week for this term. Time flies, huh? It's been 2 months with group A. How fast...
   Will spend all my days to study and revising next week. Hopefully I can do it well, because the exam is coming. Math and FES on Monday then BS1 on Tuesday. For Math, I have to get AT LEAST 70% no matter what happen. FES and BS1? AT LEAST 50%-70% no matter what happen.
   Feel quite worried about the exams especially Math. FES? I don't know what to study though. Maybe will only practice listening more. Well for me the most important thing for FES is the presentation because I'm satisfied enough with my essay already and so if the presentation can be done smoothly. I'll be very very happy and become less worried about FES. My AWA tutor said the test is not difficult but it is not easy as well though, so just can hope for the best.
   Will study more for business studies cause I'm not satisfied with my coursework's mark at all. Hmmmmm it's very tiring to think about the exam...
   On the last Wednesday and Thursday maybe I'll go to the city center to buy snacks, biscuits in Mark & Spencer and Sainsbury's for family and relatives. And, packing!! hehe..
   Well, gotta have a lot of sleep and prepare for the long journey on the Friday cause at midnight I gotta go to the train station. Then on Sunday. Hoila! hello Jakarta!
   Can't wait to see mom. Hopefully I can make her happy and we can have a very very fun year end holiday together in Jakarta. Amen! Hope everything will be going well :)
   And I lost my bbm application on my bb because I tried to upgrade it -___- don't know what's wrong and have tried several ways to fix it but no one works :") it will be the third time I lost my bbm contact if I loose it again. gahhh,,, hehe..
   Well, that's all though. Just gonna share some pics I took yesterday with my friends in the learning zone. :)

 with Sherry :)

 with Neil and Tony :)

Hope all the best for my presentation, exams, and all the problems. :)
Well have a good days ahead ppl. Hwaiting for my senior high school friends who are having their final exams.

Exciting Weekend

   Helloooo it's Sunday tomorrow ^^ Perfect day to have a rest, hehe :)
Well, just passed another week in Lancaster :) this week is quite fun. Have no really many classes to attend. Then, yesterday, Indonesian society had another meeting. We eat "bakso" which is really really delicious!!! ^^ I ate 2 bowls of "bakso", hahahah.. drink cokes, ate snacks, had fun, bla bla blah...
   Lucky is that some of the Indonesian society members are mothers, who are really really good at cooking. So when we meet we can eat their delicious fresh made Indonesian food. hehe..
   And, you know what? I feel proud to know that there are some Indonesian who are working as a lecture in Lancaster University Management School. So proud of Indonesia :)

 BAKSO MALANG ALA LANCASTER =)

 THE FOOD :D

Sharing session :

Chery & Kak Qisha :)

   Talked with a lot of seniors which gave me a lot of new general knowledges during the sharing session. Started from talking about neo-libelarism and the western countries, until talk about our own country, Indonesia, with every wrong decisions our government has made. The sharing session ended at round 9 pm. Then stay a little bit longer because of talking about Korean drama with Kak Qisha, my senior. Ended up gathered as another small group then continue our conversation until 10:30. 
   Well it hasn't come to the end at 10:30. We decided to go to Graduate Bar. Where some of my senior live in there, the Graduate college. It's my first time in life to get into a bar. hahah, just have a sit for about 10 minutes because actually non of us want to have a drink that night. Move on to another location....
   We went to Mbak Desy's flat. Gathered in her kitchen. Eat snacks, drink hot chocolates. Continue talking about bla bla blahhh lol.. There are 9 of us in the kitchen. Kak Haikal, Kak Firza, Bari, Kak Dhani, Kak Qisha, Mbak Desy, Adriana, Chery and me :D
   Wanna know what time we finish our talk? The answer is at 03:40. hahhaha, yes, around 3 am in the morning!!! crazy huh? lol this is my first time to stay out of home until this late. Around 2-3 in the morning Mbak Desy cooked rice and so we ate that hot rice with "ikan teri balado" original from Indonesia. Believe me, it was really really delicious!!! hahahah
   We talked about a lot of things about this and that. Found out that actually Kak Dhani already had a girlfriend, who is living in the US right now, Stanford. And, while talking about food and I mention about Pluit-Muara Karang. Only Kak Dhani knows where pluit is because actually he lives at Pluit Timur!! lol.
   The more funny thing is, actually his parents open 2 chinese herbal pharmacy in Pancoran!! A area which is very very familiar for me.. hhahaha what a small world!!
   Finish our talk at 03:30, we got back to Pendle with the boys, but because I have to take my bag first at Chery's room. I ended up going back to Bowland alone :s hahahha but this university is very very safe though, which is very good though I'm a girl. Even Kak Haikal have to catch the last bus to get back to his home in the city, lol.
   That's Friday. I went to bed at around 5 in the morning. Woke up at 10. Go to the city center with Erin & Chery. Groceries in Sainsbury's. We spent about 2 hours in there, lol. Chery keep struggling while choosing the right butter and cheese with the least calories. Erin has a lot of things to buy. Me? I only bought milk, some pack of hot chocs and one dark kit kat. Have bought bananas and pears before though in the market..
   One thing I love from Saturday, every morning I get to see a beautiful view from the bus while on the way to city. It's very very beautiful (for me) seriously. Green wide field. The trees's leaves are starting to change its colors. Some sheeps, goats. Parks where the children were playing. And the sunshine! Luckily almost every Saturday it's always sunny in Lancaster which is very good! hehe.
   Had lunch for again and again at Mc Donald today, hehe.. Here is the story, actually, we never want to eat at Mc Donald. But on our bus ticket. There is a discount for buying Big Mac, Mac Chicken, or Fish burger with medium fries for only 2 pounds! Very very cheap right??!! (especially if you order Big Mac) :p that's why, we don't want to waste every opportunity we have because it means that was a waste of money if we did it, lol. Today is the fourth times I eat McD every Saturday!! lol. I'm already totally fed up with it. Definitely not going to McD again this Saturday (I hope) lol.
   Then for dinner!! We have PASTA!!! hahahha cook pasta with Erin & Chery. Bolognese pene with sausages. Very very delicious ^^

OUR BOLOGNESE SAUSAGES PENE ^^ 

   After dinner me & Erin did the laundry and study in the library while waiting. 98% finish with my FES essay. Will print it out on Monday and I really really hope it can make my tutor feel satisfied enough. Seriously can't wait to finish this essay! lol. Well, have to finish another homework tomorrow but it's not that much ^^

Pic taken by Erin. Lol my hair is already that long :D

pic of Erin taken by me at library :) 

   Time flies, huh? Next week I have to attend all classes again, back to normal. Then on the following week is the essay's due date. The next following week is the FES presentation week (hope all the best for this), then after that? FINAL EXAM!!!! On Friday at the exam week. I'll go to the airport and fly back to Jakarta! Yippieee ^^ Just a few weeks left..
   Well, on Monday/Tuesday my BS1's coursework result will be out. Hope I can get a good score!! :) And so what is left is only FES essay which is almost done and the presentation ^^ Have to study more for math though. But yeah! Let's do this! hehe
   Heard some good news and bad news as well on this week from Indonesia, well. Just can hope everything is still fine and it can be okay at the end :) Will call mommy tomorrow, I miss her *hug*
   And here are some pictures of my laptop's desktop picts :)

Hello again Wednesday

Hello again Wednesday! Yeah tomorrow is Wednesday and it means. My holiday has just over :( hahaahh :D
Well, have been quite busy for the past few days. I went to Edinburgh yesterday (yippie!) with my friends from Indonesia, Hong Kong and Bangladesh. We do have lots of fun. (Will post about Edinburgh later, still waiting for photos from my friend) On Sunday I'm just lazying around, did my homework little by little. Monday, another day of lazying around and did my homework, hehe.. And finally it's Tuesday! My holiday is over! 
I just finished my FES's first draft (finally), 80% finish with BS1's coursework. And I am having a presentation this Friday! So nervous and just can hope everything's gonna be okay .__.
Well, so. The first thing I wanna talk about is. I miss my home :( and my house. I miss my own bedroom, my dinner table, my living room, etc, everything in my house!! 

 Living room. Perfect place for lazying around

I spent almost all of my time in this room on holiday. Watch DVDs, sleep, eat, study, etc..

Second one, as I've mentioned before, almost finish with BS1's coursework, and that's because I just did it this evening with my group, hehe. Took some picture with my best friend at class too. Her name is Sherry from China. :)

And all of us in group are using the same macbook pro :D

Then, me & Trang & Cherry were studying in the library last Sunday's night. Studying together give a lot of good impacts for us, hehe. And, never forget to take some photos after studying ;;) lol

And, last one! on the upcoming 15th November is my lovely sister's birthday! Just bought a card for her yesterday, and ready to send it to Australia tomorrow morning! I write a lots of words on the card. And, maybe it's ended up quite messy, lol. But, yeah. I've done my best. Hope she like it! And here are some pictures of the card :)
