Korean War Memorial Museum in Seoul

Dear blog readers,

Today I went on a field trip to a Korean War Memorial Museum with my class. It took quite a while to get there. I didn't like sitting in the bus for a long time, it makes me bus sick. But when we arrived at the museum I had a feeling that I'm going to have so much fun. And I did!

I was in group with 5 people including me and the chaperon. While I was exploring the museum I saw many lives didn't survive in the war. But they struggle for independence and peace. America was on South Korea's side and Russia was on North Korea's side. As I began to watch movies about Korean War and Cold War I felt lots of sorrowfulness, because some children lost their parents. I just imagine if I experienced the Korean War, I don't know I would survive or not. I don't like war, it just makes me afraid. All those guns and bombs, they make me terrified. Why should there be still ongoing war in this world?   I want peace, a peaceful on earth. When there is peace in this world? I would like all of us live in harmony!

Here some photos I took while I was in the Korean War Museum, hope you like it fellows..

All the best from South Korea..

Ibis Styles

Dear blog readers,

How are you? It's been a while that I haven't wrote anything in my blog. Yesterday, I came back to South Korea safe and sound. Well, my journey was quite long and pretty tiring. But, God gave us smooth flight and safety along my journey. On Saturday, I transited Jakarta for about 8-9 hours, so I stayed in a hotel named Ibis Styles. We can take a shuttle bus from the airport. It's not that far from the airport, it takes 5 minutes with the bus. But from the airport to the hotel takes quite a while, because the hotel is in the opposite side, so we need to make a big U turn to reach that hotel. But from the hotel to the airport takes only 5 minutes without jam. You must be wise in choosing the transportation. 

They provide comfortable sofas that we could enjoy. There are also 2 free computers with free internet that we could use. They served breakfast, lunch and dinner too. The style of the hotel is very unique. Inside the room they provide a giant comfortable bed, a relaxing sofa, a LED tv, a bathroom and a hanger to hook your coats or clothes. But surely, they provide a huge swimming pool too. So what are you waiting for? If you're visiting or transiting Jakarta, be sure to try Ibis Styles.

All the best from Jakarta

Foodies Gudie: Waroeng Steak and Shake

Dear blog readers,

How are you? I hope everyone is having a nice day. If your day is not that fabulous, I will pray and hope your day will become fabulous. A few days ago me and my family went to this restaurant named Waroeng Steak and Shake. This restaurant is very famous in Indonesia. It sells different kinds of steak. Such as beef steak, chicken steak, fish steak and more. Even though the beef or the chicken is not that tender, it's still magnificently delicious. For drinks they provide milkshakes, milkshakes with jelly, milkshakes with float, hot beverages, soft drinks and more. This restaurant is only in Malang it's also in other parts of Indonesia. Such as Jakarta. ( That's what I know, but I'm sure there are more of these restaurant in Indonesia.) So, if you like steak and you're visiting Indonesia, please try this awesomely delicious restaurant.

This is how you order in Indonesia.

Rumah Sakit Saiful Anwar

Dear blog readers,

Rumah Sakit Saiful Anwar is a very big hospital.There are lots of parts. But surely you can figure out yourself. In that hospital, there are many choices. Such as pediatrics, urologist, ophthalmologist and more. Do you want to know my dream job? I either want to be an ophthalmologist or a pediatrics. I want to be an ophthalmologist because I want to help people with eye problems. But also there can be business. I can open an optic shop and sell glasses and lens. I want to be a pediatric because I love kids, and if they're sick I want to recover them as soon as possible. But, in order to active my goal I need to study hard to reach my goal. Few days ago, my grandfather went to this hospital to have a surgery. When you come to this hospital, make sure you register immediately. Otherwise, you would get your room for days. There are two choices you can make. One is a room with two people. And the other is a private room. The good thing about private rooms are the space that you have is wider than sharing a room. The bathroom is bigger and they provide air conditioning. The doctor also visits several times to check on your condition. So, if you're sick don't leave it, consult it with a doctor. 

Sincerely,

This room is a sharing room. 

This is the private room.

Abdul Rachman Saleh Airport

Dear blog readers,

Today is the 1st of January of 2015! I'm very blessed that 2015 has already arrived. I'm looking forward for my exciting year. I hope all of my blog readers will also have an exciting year too. Oh yeah, do you know there's an airport in Malang. Unfortunately, their route is only from Malang to Jakarta and Jakarta to Malang. But they plan to add more routes. The good thing is they have a many delicious restaurants. The food they sell are delicious food from all over Indonesia. They provide juice, hot bevarges, soft drinks and more. What's good about this airport is we don't need to go to Surabaya's airport. I hope everyone not only indonesian citizens even tourists can enjoy this airport.
