Fall in Love

I love Melbourne!!

I totally fall in love..

The cultures, the foods, the nature, the people, the experiences.

All of the things that I can think of.

It's so great to be here.

I 'm happy that I chose Melbourne to live in.

I chose Melbourne University to study.

though i'm not really in Mel Uni yet.

and I chose to homestay.

and I am really lucky to have Sue as my host.

Thanks God. Thanks very much.

Nothing else I could say except Thank You.

I am here because of You.

I believe this is part of you plan for me.

To be here, to know more about you, to experience new things, to feel up and down.

Thanks, thanks and Thanks.

Anyway. Today I went to Sue's friend's house, Mark and Tracey with their kid, Benjamin.

Ben is 14 months old and he's my boyfriend LOL

He's soooooo cuteeee!!!haha He is.

Mark and Tracey are very lovely and kind people. They are funny and it's easy to get along with them and have fun.

It's like when I came to there at 3 in the afternoon. I felt like completely stranger.

Say hi, shake hand and smile.

but around 12.00 when we went home.

I felt like I am closer to them. 

Share, play around, hug, and laugh.

It really was a great time!

I love their house too.

and the dogs ooh lovely!

There are Billy, Kay, and Jessie.

Billy is an obedient dog, He's protective and so cuteee! 

Tracey told me that when Ben is outside, play around, Ben follow him and walk beside him. Aaw..Love him =)..

Kay is a calm one. He just sit beside you, stay still and I just pet him, hug him, kiss him all the time. haha 

and Jessie, she's hyperactive haha, she likes to catch ball. so she just come to you, drop the ball, wait for the ball with an excitement face haha you throw the ball and she track it. So funny. and she's fluffy! haha

and I can see the stars clearly from their garden. I love love love love it!!

Massive Day!

Two days ago I went out with my homestay family, It was a great day. We sure do lots of things hahaha

First,

Going to footy stadium. We're trying to sneak in and also ask them if we could go to the ground, but apparently, we're ot allowed. What a shame. =)

My first job in bar haha

Walking in Red Carpet

Bike riding, but unfortunately we have to have our helmet or else we wolud get fined.

These bicycles spread in melbourne, must be fun to ride around.

Look forward to try it next time.

Snow sliding Yay!!

Going to Harbour Town

Exist anywhere anytime! haha

Chinese food for Dinner.

Honey chiken and Sichuan Steak were yummy! =)

Doing cops-pose

It's kinda scary f you walk by yourself in night.So be careful, oci?

Hope you guys have fun too in 

oOo, Cia

Back to School?!

This post is a litleeee bit kind of serious..haha 

Nah, I just want to discuss something with you guys and I will be so hapy if you can comment and give what you guys think. =)

I was thinking about Education System.

In Australia which I just found out that Children in here is taught to train their life skills like cooking, doing arts, music and other millions fun things!! *So envyy!!! lol

They get to choose their own subjects that they like. How cool is that??

They have to learn math cause it is a compulsory subject which has important role in our life. =)

and if you want to learn science, you can choose science subject.

Aahhhhh~ it's so good, I feel like I want to get back to school and learn all those things!!haha

In Japan I think it's similiar to Aussie but I'm not sure either.

I was watching Cardcaptor Sakura and in school they learn how to cook, play music, do sports, have fieldtrip and learn other subjects too. haha I don't know though if it's same in the real life. haha

Yess! I am 18 and I watch Cardcaptor Sakura. haha I love anime, cartoon and fantasy!

*One way to be mature but still have your kiddy imagination. Yay! lol 

Back to topic, so what bother my mind now is 

Why can't Indonesia Education system be like that??

Ocidoci, maybe it's lack of Human Resources and Money. I get it

but to think about and compare it, it's just sooo~ not.

While they learn life skills and fun things, we learn science and social theory, 

Oci, maybe they are a little bit of practice. haha and 

While they have freedom to choose, we just accept and and do what the school tell us to.

Oci, it is fun somehow, but still~ it's quite not...balance??..hahaha..

So, what do guys think?? =)

oOo, Cia..

Quote of the Day

Dear God

Dear God, 

''Thanks God, Thank you for everything, for the life and every single thing in it. It's not always at the top, there are times where I feel so down, depressed, and lonely. But I believe You always be there, to share, to cry, to laugh and rely on. I believe that your plan is the best for us and every single thing has its own good. Help me God 'cause I know I am not perfect and I don't plan to be. I want to be right though I lost my self sometimes. I may know and not know for what I want but You know what I truly need. I can't say nothing but Thank You =)..''

9/11

 Today , Seven years ago, there was a huge tragedy happened in United States, Four planes had been hijacked by members of al-Qaeda, Two of them hit the twin towers,World Trade Center. One hit Pentagon and the last one, Flight 93 was crashed down to a field in Pennsylvania. 

About 3 days ago, I watched a documentary film  9/11 stage of emergency It's about what was happened in that day. So ironic to see all the tragedies. 

Peolple scream, people run away, people jump off from the building. People cry. People die.

This is the picture of the WTC.

As you can see, one with the black smoke is the north building, hit on the first time around 8:46 by American Airlines Flight 11, and followed by the second one the south building by United Airlines Flight 175 at 9:03.

At the end, both the buildings collapsed.

It was so scary to see even in the movie, the smoke got bigger and went to all directions with fast speed, and people just run and hide to save their lives.

Not just that, abot half an hour later, American Airlines 77 was flew into the Pentagon, the United States Department of Defense.

Last one, United Airlines Flight 93 crashed near Shanksville, Pennsylvania at 10: 03.

All in one day! Can you imagine that?? 

There are movies about 9/11. 

World Trade Center

Nice movie and I cried haha

Should watch it. Recommended! =)

Flight 93

I haven't seen this movie, I'd love to though. 

My teacher had told me about this movie. 

It's about what happened in the plane.

What I remember the most is that they knew already that they were going to die so in last minute they called their families and their beloved people. Saying goodbye...

I think of it and it is so so so sad.

It must be a hard depressed tough time for them.

I mean, I couldn't think if it's happened to me or if I were in situations like that.

 Last minute, talking to your families, not going to see them again. and I know that Death is waiting for me. 

In memoriam of 9/11.

 Bless for families and friends who was left behind.

Bless the victims. May God be with them.

oOo, Cia..
