Traveling to Busan

Indonesia doesn't have a high speed train yet, so I want to try a high speed train in South Korea. I was inspired by "Train to Busan", so here I go to Busan for a day trip from Seoul. It's a 2 hours trip, so I booked a business class seat for Busan, and I booked an economy class seat for Seoul. My train should be departed by 6:30 AM, and I almost miss the train.

Traveling to Seoul Tourist Spot

As I told my friend that I will go solo traveling to South Korea, few of them told me about unpleasant stories. I also watch the unpleasant experience shared in youtube channel. But, I want to keep my mind open, and just avoid the unnecessary interaction. Turns out, locals are lovely and helpful. Now, I'm going to tell you about tourist spot that I visited during my trip. So many tourists came by, so I think "why not?". Let's begin my story as a tourist in Daehan Minguk...

Traveling to Seoul

Travel to South Korea is one of my bucket list. I've been a Running Man fans, so I'm really curious. Actually I would like to go to Jeonju, Daegu, Jeju, and several other city, but money won't allow me yet. For this trip, I will mainly stay in Seoul and will go one day trip to Busan. Many people has been to South Korea, but I would like to share my story as well. Here is my solo traveling to South Korea diary...

Traveling to Bangkok

Now, let's stroll around Bangkok. Here in Bangkok, you have many transportation choice. But I prefer GrabRide or GetWin (now Gojek) to MRT or SkyTrain. My legs haven't recovered from the cramps I got in Ayutthaya :") Here we go.

Traveling to Ayutthaya

If you have read my article: Traveling to Phuket, you might curious how my journey went on after that. So, I fly from Phuket to Bangkok with Thai Lion, then use Shuttle from Bangkok to Ayutthaya. Language is the main barrier here, but with Grab application it's just a click away. You only need to set the destination, and capture a landmark near you so the driver can find you easily. Once I landed in Bangkok, I rode a GrabCar to the Bus Station. The Bus Station location is quite unique, AFAIK, it's located under a bridge (or highway, not quite sure).

Traveling to Phuket

Hi! Thank you for visiting my blog. It was a quite long time since my last article back then in 2018. This time, I would like to share my story about Solo Traveling. The very first time of my life, I will go to Thailand alone! During this trip, I was planning to visit Phuket, Ayutthaya, and Bangkok. Let the story begins.

Precious Childhood Memories

Hey, recently I'm thinking about to write an article in Bahasa. I knew that I'm not that fluent in English, but at least I want to try to write in English on my personal blog. Okay, let's make this article as the first article in Bahasa.

Belakangan ini, aku bernostalgia tentang hal-hal yang dulu aku gemari. Apakah kalian juga angkatan 95-an? Mungkin saja kegemaran kita mirip!

Just Graduated

Dear readers,

I would love to inform you that I have graduated from my college officially. Proudly say, I'm a bachelor of Computer Science. Even though I did not receive any title caused of my 3.66 GPA. Thank you for my support system, my family. Thanks dad for your hard work to fund my study. Thanks mom for all you have done till now and keep going. Thanks my little sister, for your sometimes-consideration-to-accompany me during my thesis at cafe. She would love to read this! Last time she mad at me, because I posted something on my Instagram account with no thank for her on the caption.

Beginning

Last year, I began the adventure with two other guys. On that time I was like highly motivated to move to other field as far as I could. Application Developer is one of the job that the most I anticipate. I was never find it fun to code, till I began to know it here.

I learned about Javascript, Java (for Android), and Swift on the first quarter and then move to an Android project. Time flies and three of us has different path, and I stay as Android Developer. Time flies again and then I started to handle iOS project. Now that my internship has ended, I became Mobile Application Developer (handle both Android and iOS with its native programming language).

We both same age, different maturity.

Last night I had a nightmare. In my dream, I had disease that I need monthly treatment abroad. The nightmare isn't stop there. When I went abroad for the treatment, someone told me that my best friend died. In that dream, I fainted. When I regain my conscious, I cried. After that moment, suddenly I woke up from my dream and I got my self in tears.

Still in tears, I tried to look for my phone to call that friend just to ensure everything okay. Still in tears, I tried to buy vouchers for my mobile phone first, since my remaining balance was not enough to make a call. Still in tears, I called him. And alhamdulillah, he picked my call up.

Hearing I was in tears, he asked. He thought that maybe something emergency came up. But when I told him that I had a nightmare about him, he tried to comfort me. Because he need to attend class, he had to hang my call up. But after that, he texted me and try to comfort me. He asked how he died in my dream, but unfortunately I was not so sure because I fainted right after I read the announcement text. He asked because the night before he died in his dream too. Knowing that fact, I asked him to meet up that evening.

In the evening, he told me that he was shock hearing what I said. He was in the elevator when he picked my call up. And right beside him, there was his lecturer. After the prologue, he continue telling about the dream he had. He was sleeping over at his friend's house that night, and in his dream he and his friends already knew their death time. So all of them prepared what to answer, and already change their clothes into white one. In his dream, he jumped out of the cliff. He senses when his soul left his body. And he thought that my dream was the sequel. Come to think about it, perhaps it was the sequel. Because I only received the announcement. Ah, my mistake fainted too soon.

I am afraid of losing people around me, as equal as I afraid to confront my death. Since none of us knew when our time came up.

After we visited a friend who is hospitalized, he drove me home. On my way back home, he lecture me something. Yeah, he is a type to give 'kultum' to his friends. Kultum is a term of short lecture especially about religion for around seven minutes. But that night, he is giving lecture for more than seven minutes. I'm lucky enough to have him as a friend, who always kindly share his knowledge.

He told me that we are not teenager anymore that we should plan our future responsibly. He told me to focus on my college and intern. He told me to push aside thought of love or relationship, and that if me and my match destined together will find its way. He told me that good guy will get good guy, but if good guy got bad guy that means the good guy capable to guide the bad guy.

I got sullen as he took a quick glance and laugh. He got the idea of "My friend is not mature yet for this kind of convo"

He is a good guy. I wish him healthy and prosperity in this life.
