“In zombie apocalypse, I expect insane things to happen” – Chandler Riggs

Wohoo. Rasanya menakutkan sekali. Sebelum mengalami saja sudah menakutkan apalagi kalau mengalami sendiri. Ya, pada kesempatan bulan April 2016 lalu, aku dan teman memutuskan untuk mengikuti game escape room yang bertemakan zombie. Game ini diberi nama Dystopia.

Wohoo. It feels really terrifying for me. Before it happened, I already scared first. Moreover, what about if I already try that. Yes, in this occasion, I had a chance in previous April 2016, for me and friends who decide to participate in an escape room game which has theme about zombie. This game is called Dystopia.

Dystopia ini sebetulnya adalah game escape room yang diadakan oleh beberapa mahasiswa dari Prasetya Mulya Business School, dalam rangka tugas akhir atau semacamnya (aku juga kurang tahu pastinya). Event ini diadakan di Flavor Bliss Alam Sutera, di sebuah lapangan yang cukup luas untuk mengatur tempat yang ada.

Dystopia is actually an escape room game which held by several students from Prasetya Mulya Business School, in order for them to complete final project or soover (I don’t know exactly about the campus’s task). This event is located at Flavor Bliss Alam Sutera, in a empty field which is fit enough for the game settings.

Dystopia, merupakan escape room dengan tema zombie. Sebetulnya, kalau escape room saja, mungkin aku masih okay. Tapi karena ada tema zombie, ehmm… gimana ya. Rasanya tantangan-nya jadi doubel. Walaupun aku tahu ini hanya permainan, dan zombie-nya tidak nyata, tapi pasti menyeramkan tetap apabila bertemu zombie di dalam. Apalagi pemeran zombie yang ada semuanya diriasi dengan make up sehingga betul betul menyerupai zombie.

Dystopia came up with zombie as the theme. Actually if it is just an ordinary escape room, maybe I am still fine but it is not. Because the theme is zombie, and it makes me feel like ehmm… how should I feel. It feels that the obstacles are doubled. Even I know that this is just a game and the zombie is not real, I still feel that this will be going to be really scary moreover when I meet the zombie. And also, all the zombie character is face decorated with zombie make up which made the zombie really scary.

Di dalam escape room ini, pemain dapat menang apabila berhasil menemukan sebuah botol antidote di setiap ruangan. Total ada 3 ruangan di dalam permainan ini. Di setiap ruangan, ada petunjuk bagaimana cara kami menemukan botol tersebut. Di dalam ruangan pun ada zombie juga. Zombie tidak akan menyentuh pemain begitu juga dengan pemain, karena apabila tersentuh, permainan dinyatakan gagal alias game over.

In this escape room, players can win if they successfully found antidote bottle in every room. There are 3 rooms in this game. In every room, there is a sequence of instructions on how to find this bottle. In every room, no doubt that there are zombies. Zombie will not touch the player and so on for the player. If the player touch the zombie, accidentally or not, player is failed to win the game or game over.

Untunglah kami ber 6 mengikuti game ini. Karena kalau aku hanya berdua atau bertiga saja pastilah aku akan menjadi beban. Karena selama permainan ini berlangsung, waduuh.. aku takut sekali, sampai sampai buakannya memecahkan teka teki yang ada, malah memperhatikan zombie seupaya tidak dekat dekat. Haduuh, rasanya jantung mau copot di dalam, hahaha #lebay. Tapi memang itulah yang dirasakan sama aku, karena aku memang takut, dan ga suka dengan hal berbau horror hahaha.

Luckily for me, that we are 6 people. If it is only 2 or 3, it can be sure that I become burden for them. As the game runs, OMG…. I am really scared, really really frightened until I cannot solve the puzzle in each room. Instead I focused my attention to the zombies in the room so that I don’t get close to them.

Dari stage pertama, tim-ku tidak berhasil menemukan antidote yang ada. Yah.. alhasil kami sebetulnya sudah gagal dari stage pertama. Stage kedua dan ketiga-pun kami gagal. Tapi kalau dari aku pribadi, aku menikmati game ini walaupun takut-nya benar benar takut :P Yaah.. Setidaknya, aku dan teman-teman bisa sekali lagi menghabiskan waktu kami bersama-sama dalam suatu kegiatan yang unik. Dan… sehabis dari sini, perut kami sudah menunggu untuk diisi bahan bakar kembali. Saatnya cabut ke tempat makan..

From the 1^st stage, my team is not survived and we don’t get the antidote. Well.. it turns out that we are failed to win this game since the first stage. In the 2^nd stage and 3^rd stage, we also failed. For me personally, I enjoyed the game even though I am scared to death :P Well… at least, I and my friends can go once again to spend our time together in a unique activity and place. And.. from there, our stomachs are already craving for food. Time to go then for some treats…

Hai teman! Saya bersyukur karena di kantor saya mempunyai sebuah pot tanaman kecil dengan tanaman bunga diatasnya. Tanaman bunga diatas-nya itu saya tanam sekitar 3 bulan yang lalu dan bersyukur sekarang mereka sudah tumbuh makin subur setiap hari :)

Hi Guys! I am very glad because in my workplace, I have a little plant pot with flowery plant planted. Those flowery plants are planted about 3 months ago and I am so glad that now they grow up to be healthy everyday :)

Sekitar 4 bulan lalu, saya beli sebuah tanaman kaktus di pot tanaman kecil yang sekarang jadi pot tanaman bunga ini. Waktu itu, saya beli kaktus itu karena iseng dan di kantor tidak ada tanaman asli sama sekali. Saya pikir, mungkin akan jadi lebih indah kalau dimeja ada tanaman yang bisa saya pandang. Maka saya beli-lah tanaman kaktus.

About 4 months ago, I bought a cactus planted in this little plant’s pot which now become the vessel from those flowery plants. At that moment, I bought that just for fun because there is no any living plant planted in my workplace. I thought , maybe it will be beautiful if in my desk there is a plant that I could look everyday. Therefore, I bought cactus.

Tapi karena saya tidak tahu cara merawatnya, dan memang tidak pernah merawat kaktus, alhasil.. kaktus ini mati hanya dalam waktu 1 bulan saja sejak dibeli :( wah.. sedih sekali. Tapi ya sudah mati, apaboleh buat. Saya bersihkan kemudian tanaman kaktus-nya lalu saya berpikir untuk tanam, tanaman lain di pot yang ada daripada pot tanaman itu kosong.

But actually I don’t know really how to take care of cactus, and I never had cactus before. At the end, this cactus’s plant is died one month after it is bought :( I was so sad… it is already dead, well what can I do now. So I clean the wilt cactus and I began to think if I can plan another plant, another plan in this vase. It is better compare to let this vessel empty.

Tanaman Kaktus yang sudah mati | Cactus was died

Akhirnya, saya ambil beberapa tangkai tanaman bunga kecil dari depan tempat tinggal saya. Saya ga tahu nama tanaman ini apa, mungkin pembaca bisa kasih tahu lewat comment :) tanaman bunga ini cukup mudah dirawat, karena tinggal ditancapkan ditanah, disiram dan ditaruh di tempat yang banyak sinar matahari, maka tanaman ini akan tumbuh baik sekali.

So then, I picked several small flowery plants located in front of my living place. I don’t know what is the name of this plant, maybe you guys as readers can tell me through comment if you know (don’t hesitate pleasee…) :)

Those plants are super easy to be taken care, they just planted in soil, watered and put in the place where there are a lot of sunshine, then those plant will grow really really well.

Sudah sekitar 3 bulan saya pelihara, dan sudah berbunga beberapa kali. Tanaman ini ada yang bunganya warna ungu, merah muda dan putih. Karena bentuk bunganya yang seperti bunga mawar, orang di sini sering menyebutnya mawar mini :) sayang bunganya hanya bertahan 1-2 hari setelah itu layu. Bunga ini pun hanya mekar di pagi hari, dan pada siang hari, bunganya mulai layu.

After 3 months I take care of it, the petals are bloomed several times. Those plants has several color for the flower, purple, pink and white. Because the shape of the flower which shaped like a rose, some people in my workplace called it mini rose :) unfortunately, the flower only bloomed for 1-2 days only after that, it is wilt. This flower is bloomed in the morning and in the afternoon, the flower starts to wilt.

Saya harap tanaman ini bisa terus bertumbuh dan berbunga sehingga bisa terus membuat ruangan menjadi hijau dan menjadi indah walaupun hanya sebagian kecil saja. Dengan berpatisipasi menanam walaupun hanya kecil, saya rasa ini tetap berdampak untuk dunia ini :)

I hope this plant can grow up always and blooms so that it can made the room green and decorated even it only covers a small region only. With the participation for planting, even only small plant, I feel that this impacts the world to be better :)

PS :

Sekarang tanaman ini sudah mulai bertambah banyak. Sudah beberapa kali rantingnya diputuskan dari induknya dan ditanam di tanah. Bahkan beberapa kali juga sudah kubagikan ke temanku. Ini bukti bahwa tanaman ini berkembang. Aku menanam satu wadah lagi yang berisi tanaman ini juga di dalam gelas. Semakin lama, semakin banyak tanaman dan pemandangan hijau. Semoga dapat bertumbuh dan bertumbuh :)

Now then there are more from this plant. The branch from the grown up has been separated from the stem and planted on the soil. Moreover, I have shared the branch to my friend. This is proven that this plant is growing up. I plant this greens again in another separated place in a mug. As time goes by, there are a lot of it and green views created. Hope that these can grow and grow always :)

Paskah datang! Dan saya sangat bersemangat!
Easter is coming!! And I am so excited about that.

Tahun ini seperti biasa, saya merayakan paskah di Indonesia. Hari paskah tahun ini saya habiskan kebanyakan di gereja karena gereja biasanya memiliki banyak acara di hari paskah. Jadi. Isi blog ini akan lebih saya bahas tentang kegiatan paskah di gereja saya ya. :)

This year as always, I celebrate my easter in Indonesia.I spent most of my easter time in church because there are a lot of activities in my church. So, this post will be based on easter activities happened on my church, okay. :)

Sekilas tentang paskah | About easter..

Paskah merupakah hari dimana umat Kristen merayakan kebangkitan Yesus pada hari ke 3 setelah dia mati diatas kayu salib. Mengapa kita perlu merayakannya? Karena itu membuktikan bahwa Yesus adalah Tuhan dan Dia memberikan harapan bagi banyak orang kalau pada saat mereka sudah mati, mereka masih memiliki harapan untuk dibangkitkan.

Easter is the day where most of Christian celebrate Revival of Jesus at the 3^rd day after His death on Cross. Why christians celebrate it? Because this event prooved that Jesus is God and He give hope to many people that when they died, they still have hope to be resurrected.

Aktivitas paskah | Easter activities

Hari paskah bertepatan dengan hari minggu, jadi gereja aku tetap merayakan aktivitas ibadah hari minggu tetapi ditambah beberapa acara paskah. Seperti, pada saat kami datang ke gereja, di depan gereja sudah ada gabus berbentuk salib yang bisa ditancapkan bunga. Apabila ada yang membawa bunga, boleh menancapkan sebagai bentuk penghormatan kepada Yesus.

Easter is happened on Sunday, so my church still did the Sunday service routine but this day there are some easter activities added. These activties included like when we arrived at church, in front of main door of main room, there is a sponge shaped to cross which can be steped on with flower. If people brought flower, they can steped the flower on the cross sponge as a tribute to Jesus.

Kemudian ada paduan suara juga seputar paskah. Lagu yang dibawakan biasanya lagu yang ceria karena umat Kristiani mengalami kemenangan dan kegembiraan yaitu Yesus bangkit. Selain itu ada juga paduan suara yang dibawakan oleh koor sekolah minggu. Anak-anak pun belajar untuk memuji Tuhan :)

There was also a choir which sang easter song. Usually the song is a happy and celebration song to symbolize winning and happiness from revival of Jesus. Besides, there was also choir that brought by Sunday school children. Even children try to worship from childhood :)

Paduan Suara | Choir GII HIT BSD

Setelah itu, melanjutkan acara paskah ke sekolah minggu karena saya pelayanan di sekolah minggu. Paskah di sekolah minggu memiliki tema “Pesta Semangka”. Mengapa Semangka? Karena semangka adalah lambang dari injil yang bercerita tentang Tuhan Yesus melalui warna-warna yang ada. Setelah itu pesta semangka diakhiri dengan lomba-lomba yang membuat anak sekolah minggu menjadi senang seperti lomba memakan semangka, lomba menggelindingkan semangka, dll.

Easter activities then continue to Sunday school since I serve Sunday school. Easter in Sunday school had main theme which is “Watermelon Party”. Why Watermelon? Watermelon is a symbol from a gospel which told about Jesus’s story with the colour that it had. Watermelon party is ended with games competition which made children excited. The games are such as eating watermelon,sliding watermelon fruit, etc.

Setelah kebaktian sekolah minggu selesai, diadakan games untuk 3 generasi (anak, remaja dan dewasa) yang dirancang agar semua jenjang umur dapat diikuti di gereja. Anggota tim dibagi sesuai wilayah jemaat di gereja seperti wilayah Bumi Serpong Damai (BSD), Gading Serpong, Karawaci, dll. Di akhir games, ada hadiah bagi pemenang setiap games yang ada.

After Sunday school is finished, there are also games for 3 generations (children, teenager and adult) which designed so that all age of generation can participate in the games. Team members are divided based on region where church’s members live such as Bumi Serpong Damai (BSD) region, Gading Serpong region, Karawaci region. At the end of the games, there are gifts for all game’s winners.

Paskah memang menyenangkan. Semoga paskah tahun ini bisa menjadi berkat buat kita semua. Di akhir Blog, saya ucapkan, SELAMAT PASKAH! ^__^

Easter is always fun moment. Hope that this year easter can be blessings for all of us. At the end of this blog, I wanna say, HAPPY EASTER! ^__^

Hi readers,

Just throwback my story in January 2015 (i forgot the exact day) i found something interesting from my kitchen. Guess what??

It is a souvenir from my friends in Berlin! This is what it looks :

Huge beer glass contains gummy. Full of sweet

It looks fine until i found that..

It is a huge beer glass with a ton of gummy inside. Nice, isn't? I got this as a souvenir from my friends in Berlin, Germany when i was there ( i miss you guys :(, one day i intend to go back there ).

The size of the glass is almost like 30 cm tall and 10 - 15 cm diameter so you can imagine there are quite many candies inside. The candies consists of 2 types, beer gummy (yellow one) which is not sold in Indonesia (as far as i know) and sweet marshmallow candy (white one). Both of them are so delicious. On the top of the glass, there is a thin cling wrap plastic wrapping the glass, keeping the air to come into the glass.

It looks fine until i found that actually the plastic wrap is already forming a hole (since i don't know for how long) and i got this since August 2014 which has been approximately 6 months. Wow! Can you imagine? I was just confused and suddenly my head though a lot of negative questions.

What about if the hole already there since August 2014?

How about if the candies taste not good again?

Is it expired already?

What if something goes inside the candies like insect, micro organism?

Is it safe to be eaten?

It is been in those abandoned kitchen cupboard since 6 months. (Hmm.. not real abandoned actually)

Or should i throw it trash?

How i suppose to tell my friends that i am not eating all of the candies because this simple mistake?

Oh God, this is so confusing for me to make decision regarding the candies.

Then i decided finally. I try to eat 2 - 3 candies to make sure that it still taste good. If it is not good again, then i am the one that #perhaps will get stomachache before i poison others by sharing this candies (of course i must share it, since there are a lot of candies). Then.. bump bump bump. It does taste good :3 #yummy

I think, there is moral story from here

Thanks God! I feel relieve about this :D Then i quickly move the candies out from this big beer glass to some safe food container and bring it everywhere i go so i can share it to my friends wherever i were. Until this day, none of my friends were having stomachache after eating my candy. I feel so relieve :)

I think there is a moral story from here. Sometimes, we often underestimate something around us. Like me, after i got this souvenir, i realize that it was a food and i must quickly eat that before it turns to be expired but i just not consider it as a big task, and just think to do it later and that was the beginning of this happen.

This life, when we have a chance to do something and we know there is something to be done, just don't postpone to finish it but do it since we have time to do it. We will realize that moment was a mistake when we find that it is already expired, right? :) What turns bad already cannot be turn to be good back, so let's live the best life we could today.

Thanks for reading. Cheers~

Hi readers, so this is my latest post about the story of my meeting with one of highschool bestfriend. If you read this but still not read the previous part, you can click here to watch the previous version. Happy reading :)

It is almost 6 pm and it is getting dark and i and my friend also getting hungry :D So it is dinner time. Before that time i was attacked actually by Diarrhea / Diare (known in Indonesia). After going out from Universitas Pelita Harapan (UPH), suddenly i felt that i need to use toilet. It is just so sudden so i am using the toilet in Lippo Karawaci Mall. I just run as fast as i can to find the toilet, uugh.. i don't like that moment :( I don't know what food that trigger me to have Diarrhea (since i eat a lot of food today, LoL. I suggest that you don't eat too much food in one day like me, it is not good, really).

Luckily i just ran to the toilet 2 times, no more than that so i can continue my journey with my best friend. We are heading to Benton Junction then from Lippo Karawaci Mall to hunt a dinner place. There we found a Curry Restaurant named Karei Ya which he says that it is only opened in Benton Junction. We also have a quick look on several restaurant but we decide to have dinner in Karei Ya.

Karei Ya can be tell as an unique japanese curry restaurant. The main uniqueness is located on the design of the curry rice that they made. We can request several unique form of white rice in our curry so it looks cute and interesting :) Karei Ya already provide some picture examples of curry rice so we know what our curry rice should look like.

The place also located in the Benton Junction which i think a strategic place for people to search for a food. When i go there, it is not so crowded and the place was quiet relaxing so we can enjoy our conversation. The service is also not so slow (maybe because it is not so crowded) and the price are in normal price for a japanese curry restaurant.

At that time i order Beef Enoki Curry Rice and my friend order the butter sausage curry rice. I order the normal shape of white rice and my friend order the dolphin form one. While we are waiting for the food, my friend give me a little gift which is Chocolate from Singapore (He just back from Singapore)!! He also opened one pack of strawberry ball chocolate to be eaten while we were waiting for the food (we are already starving, i already forgot about my Diarrhea, LoL :D)

Chocolate strawberry truffle from my friend

When the food arrived already, we took selfie together (sorry i am not post in here) because we know that it is time for us to be separated already. Noo.. time sure goes fast really :( We pay the bill, go again inside Lippo Karawaci Mall, walk around a little longer, and then return him to his place

Well that's how our quality time together for today ended up with a curry rice dinner. I am pretty excited to spend my time with him simply because we are best friend and we seldom meet each other (He is busy, me too :S). I promise him that one day we will meet again.

Have you ever think how can i know that he is my best friend or not? Good question. I think, i found a good quote for it :D

There comes a point in your life when you realize who really matters, who never did, and who always will - unknown

That's will represent how a true best friend is. Even though we are busy, having our own activity and schedule but as the time goes by, best friend will show its true integrity in our life. So i hope you enjoy this current post. If you have any comment, feedback or suggestion, please don't hesitate to comment. If you like it, please share or subscribe my Blog. Thank you very much, until next post :)

Hi readers :).

It is been a long time that i am not continuing this story while i am in busy mode (I have final oral examination, so i must study hard, LOL). Anyway, like usual, if you still not read the previous part, you can read it by click here (part 4). Thanks for reading!

After a long culinary journey, i and my friend continue to go to UPH (Universitas Pelita Harapan). FYI, i never go there before and i am very amazed (really) because the rumors about this campus is true actually.

UPH is a campus that famous with its facilities that support the student and the environment. It is been one of the top rated campus with complete facility. They have around 6 - 8 sky building, almost complete sport facilities (swimming pool olympic size, football court, basketball court, jogging track, many more), and a nice and green enviroment that designed in the middle of the campus.

The middle court of UPH

We are going to UPH through Times Book Store that located in the Karawaci Main Street. Times Book Store is the book store that located in front of UPH. It has a Starbuck Cofee inside and the Library so UPH's student can have cozy and relax study there. After we pass Times Book Store, we are going to one of Twin Building of UPH.

1 of the twin building is for the Rector and Lecturers and the other is for Library, Canteen and The Famous UPH Grand Chapel (I forgot what again inside it since it's too much information for me, sorry:P ). Inside this, i can see that the facility is built with really high valuable material in UPH. Unfortunately i cannot go inside the Library or Grand Chapel so i don't know what is inside it. From there, i can also see outside view from the Grand Chapel floor. So beautiful :)

Grand Chapel of UPH

Karawaci view from one of UPH Twin Building

From twin building, we are going through the UPH middle courtyard where student can enjoy the green and natural enviroment from UPH. This feeling is created because of many Trees and Grass planted around UPH. There is also a unique regulation for the students to not stepping by the Grass or they will be Dropped Out from Campus! ( Seriously strict :O ) For myself, it is also surprisingly that there is a regulation like that in UPH. That's why some student says (Just a joke) that Grass has Higher Pride than the Student of UPH, LOL :D :D

UPH also known as a Christian based Campus that's why we can see a lot of Holy Bible verse being written in the building wall or stone. For myself, the verse really tell the student to depend on Lord and not their strength since we are human with limited power. This makes UPH known also to adapt the Holistic Education.

One example of Bible Verse written in the courtyard

Then we can see the Basketball Court, Gym and Swimming Pool located nearby each other. From there i have been invited to see the Building (I forgot the name of the Building) for Social Faculty like Economy, Management, Public Relation, International Relationship and so on. It is also a tall building built with many classes for every floor. Every floor is already dedicated for certain major and there is a Wall Magazine that post news and the Organization Members of that Major. I think it is so unique and nice like in Highschool :). Because it is is closed, i can only see the classroom from outside (Lucky the classroom's door is made by glass)

Class room view

Finish from the building we go through the Football Court where there are some students still playing football. It is so big, i think it is the Olympic size of Football court (CMIIW :D). Around the football court, there is jogging track also and a building to watch the game when any. There is a verse from the Holy Bible attached in the building outside, this supports UPH as an Holistic Campus also. We saw also some people enjoy the view, taking seat there, relax and took pictures there (I think they are outsider, not the student of UPH). It is nice!

Football court and Jogging Track

Finally since we have a long tour of journey (It is almost evening already), we get hungry already so we fasten this tour up to search dinner. We go building in the middle of the UPH courtyard. The building contain hotel rooms and restaurants that runs by Hospitality students. This building often used for the Hospitality student to practice but for people that wants to stay in the Hotel rooms, it is also permitted.

Ornaments in the middle of building

Then my friend says, in front of this building, a lot of graduated student take a photo there. Dunno why but it just a kind of tradition in UPH. So i also take picture there also since it is a landmark for UPH student :D

Last, we go to the Art Building there. My friend says that this building is being Haunted (So Creepy :O) in the 4th floor. This floor is used by students from Music Major. So we go there since i am also curious about it. We go to 4th floor and yes, it feels kinda creepy there maybe because there are a lot of narrow corridor, a cold temperature there and no one there with some abandoned class :O

There we saw a lot of picture, poster, painting being hanged up in corridor wall. We are passing by corridor by corridor then suddenly we feel something different. We heard a Piano music there! OMG, there is still a student there practicing music. That make use relieved, LOL. After some times being adventurous there, we are going down to eat. My friend said that there is a rumor (don't know from where) that there is someone will follow us everytime we go to 4th floor :O :O Well, that's kinda creepy but that's just rumor anyway so.. yeah :D

Anyway, that's quite an adventure for me in UPH. I don't take photo so much since my Camera is in low battery, sorry :( but i think it is quiet enough to represent what inside UPH. If you are curious, i recommended you to see UPH (If you have friend, that's better). My impression about UPH's facilities and enviroment is good.

If you like this post, you can subscribe this post, follow me or just comments is also welcome :) Next we go back to dinner in Benton Junction. Curious? Wait for the last post of this journey. Thanks for reading :)

Photo that i promised. My photo with God anything is possible :)

Hi readers. If you read this post, actually this post is continually from previous Post so make sure you read previous post (part 3). Feel free to comment and share, enjoy :)

If you guys still remember, that my next destination is Universitas Pelita Harapan (UPH) which located in front of the Mall actually and can be accessed by walk cross the street. Before that, actually we must pass by Benton Junction that are located in front of the Mall directly. Then my friend said why we don't take a look Benton Junction first after that UPH. I said yes since i also never looked at Benton Junction before.

I knew that Benton Junction is quiet a famous place to eat for all people especially for UPH's students since it is located near by. After i see it, i think it is a beautiful place. Benton Junction has unique design like most of the Europe's restaurant which put some tables and chairs outside so people can enjoy sunshine.

The food place is also uniquely design which come like a house / short building so when we are there, we feel that it is not part of Indonesia which usually dominated with food court / office building for a food place. In the night, Benton Junction are surrounded by beautiful street and decorated light to cheer up the night sense.

Now, there are 2 things here, bad and good news, which one i want to post first?? Hmm.. Bad new first maybe :D LoL.

The bad new is actually i don't take picture of Benton Junction :( Sorry, i really forgot about it since i don't think to post in on this Blog before. Too bad, when i go there again, i will take picture and post it on this blog, i promise.

Now the good thing is i tried a milkshake there which i think a good taste of Milkshake. Located in the Benton Junction near Poka Ribs names Brandish. Brandish is actually the milkshake production, owned by my friend, but they have different concept of Milkshake.

They make the milkshake without ice cube (can you imagine how they make it cold?), They actually replace the milk with Ice Cream, totally full Ice Cream!! It makes full cream, creamy and really really milky when you taste it.

My friend already told me before about this and now this is the time for me to taste this so i decide to buy one. I looked at the menu while the Waitress told me about the mixed stuff inside every flavor. Then i decide to drink Creme Brulee flavor. Wow, it is unique i think. 1 glass of milkshake costs around IDR 20,000 - IDR 25.000 and it is worth it since i got full ice cream milkshake!!

Brandish Creme Brulee :)

Because i am thirsty so i take the picture after i already drink half (sorry not in full content :) )
but there are chocolate chips topping given actually. Brandish actually quite new so it is not popular but they have several deal or promo actually in their Instagram which give benefits also for us. You can follow it on @brandish_id account :)

After some distraction finally, UPH Karawaci is in front of me :) Let's move ahead.

Hi readers. This is actually my continuous journey with my friend, part 3. If you still not read the previous part, make sure you read the part 2 #2 first. Enjoy :D

So then we continue our journey to the corner of our foodcourt in Mall Karawaci, FYI, there are some food courts actually in Karawaci Mall so it is pretty confusing if you don't know about it yet. Make sure when we ask the security or somebody about the position of the food court inside, we also know what food that we want to search for :D

I and my friend are going to the foodcourt where there sold chicken Pai Kut inside. We are not going to eat chicken Pai Kut (too much for us after continually eating and eating) but we search for "Teh Kocok" or in English called Shaked Tea.

This is also first time for me to eat kind of tea like that so i am not sure what it is before but my friend said that it is delicious so i said "okay, i want to try it". We bought 2 Teh Kocok, 1 is in Milo Flavor (my friend said it is the favorite one) and 1 is in Cin Cao Flavor for me,

Cin Cao Teh Kocok (Left) and Milo Teh Kocok (Right)

After we bought, we sat in corner of the food court and enjoy our Teh Kocok while continue chatting. From my opinion, Teh Kocok can be a good friend for who want to enjoy the sweet moment when we want to hang out together. For me both of Cin Cao and Milo Flavor are good taste depends on your personal taste :)

There we had talked a quiet long also, it is almost 1 hour actually because we don't know where we want to go after this. While 1 hour passed, we also talked about upcoming events and news, about what we will do and what happened to us. This actually makes our meeting to be quality because we are sharing and talking about what we knew and what we heard about.

Usually when people hang out together, they are eating, watching movie, shopping or doing any fun activities but they don't talk each other quiet long. I don't think that is a good quality time :(

After 1 hour, we continue our journey. The next destination is actually Universitas Pelita Harapah (UPH) located in Karawaci (precisely in front of Lippo Karawaci Mall) because he is a student in there and i am never going inside of it :( Since it is very near to the Mall, we can just walk cross the Street to UPH and many people do that also.

So then, i and my friend, we continue our food journey to Lippo Karawaci Mall in Karawaci, Tangerang, Indonesia. It is so crowded due to weekend time so it is time for everyone to do refreshing (Yes, refreshing) but it is not good for the one who hate crowdness :D

When we arrived, we decided to eat Dimsum in Imperial Kitchen because my friend says there are discounts for every purchase of dimsum by Imperial Kitchen. The purchased is actually limited for some dimsum menu only but that is okay, because we only want to try the dimsum taste. So then we enjoy our dimsum then in Imperial Kitchen.

Pork Pao, Spring Roll and Siomay

For my opinion, it is worth it that we can have dimsum in Imperial Kitchen because the promotion we can buy only IDR 10.000 each dimsum not included tax and service. FYI, they usually change the promotion for different dimsum every week so it is not only valid for the same dimsum, The place is typically restaurant so it is not built for hang out but it is also fine if we want to have chit chat with our colleges or friends. Interesting right? :)

We have chit chat in there for quiet long also then we continue our food journey. Next destination is still inside the mall, we go to to the corner of the foodcourt where we can find a drink because we have been full and just want to take a break by drink. What drink it should be? :D :D

At this weekend, on Saturday i got a chance to meet one of my best friend from high school. I got excited because we are rarely meet each other up to talk. He just came from Singapore to do an internship for about 2 months and the last time we met up was on September last year.

Just a short about my best friend, he is kind person. Really really kind, who help each other and sincerely never leave me and always give me best advice that he had (Even the advice may not be suitable but he sincerely wants to help me).

And so, i drove from Bumi Serpong Damai (BSD) City to Karawaci to pick him up since he live and study in Karawaci. It tooks around 1 hour without fly over to go to Karawaci. When i arrived at his homestay, we talked each other about ourselves (Yes! we have not been talking like this since our last time), about what he did in Singapore, his study, my story regarding my life.

Then we decided to have lunch, since it is almost lunch. We want this meeting to be also a food time for us (both of us love to eat! :D :D).

My friend offered me several eating place in Karawaci that we can eat, among them i interested to Kacamata restaurant in West Karawaci because i never been to Kacamata before.

Kacamata is a restaurant whose food is based on Pork and Chicken which cooked by Asia's cooked style (Red coloured Pork, Roasted Pork, Roasted chicken), Some of the foods are Hainamese Rice (Cooked garlic rice with some seasoning), Noodle, Dimsum (Pao, siomay) combined with choosen topping. I would say that Kacamata is type of chinese restaurant and the taste of their food is also great (based on me and my friend experience) even though they do not have so many variation of food,

Special Hainamese Rice

For what i looked also, the place is not really design for student or worker to spend time, not typically design like that, it is more for eating place and then go. Therefore we do not spend so much time in there. After we eat, we talked a little bit, have a bill and then decided to go to another place that cozy for talk in Karawaci. Yes, that place should be Lippo Karawaci Mall. ^_^
