Whether a big deal to take a gap year?

Disclaimer: I write and published my first post on my blog using English, with help of dictionary and google translate. If I do mistake in a sentence or maybe my grammar is wrong it is a natural thing, because I am also in the learning process. I Hope we can learn together J

I am the one who takes a gap year, especially this year. I know when someone asked me "are you entered in college?" and I answered, "No, Next year". Maybe, half of the people like frowned their forehead or just affirm what I answered. As I know in my environment, gap year still taboo. Sometimes they said if u take a gap year its just waste your time or procrastinating the other things that should be done.

Hey, let me a tell the reason who people take a gap year. It is their decision and we don't know the true reason why people take gap year even They don't wanna entered college.
It could be, they want to refresh after 12th years study, study and study. Rest their brain and mind, maybe they are still confused to take a program that they want. And when they postpone their college, they may be able to think carefully what program they will choose. somehow, how long they take gap year can be one year or even more. Some people are looking for work and earn money to pay for their college. Regardless of part time or full time.

There is also a time gap year to do useful activities, such as being a volunteer, traveling around the world to gain a lot experience and knowledge about culture. Or can also participate in activities such as summer camp or seminar to add soft skills. There are may also be taking courses, such as sewing courses, language, or computer. For sure, adding to their skills. Or do you have some hobby? You can spend your time to explore your hobby such as playing some instrument, make a craft, or activity can make you more healthy like exercise.

If you feel left behind, it is not. Cause in college you will find all sorts of ages in your classroom. Don't be a surprise, if you meet with someone older than a few years from you. If you feel left behind with your friends, it really isn't. Or are you feel they one step ahead of you.

There is no default rule after you finished your school, you should continue in college. We shouldn't be followed the pattern in our society as we originally entered Elementary school and then Junior High School, Senior High School, Graduated, Entered College, Graduated, find a job. Cause actually, all decision is in your hands whether you continue to study, take a gap year or find a job? Only you know the answered. And please don't ever assume negative or trivial the people who take a gap year. What everybody does. There's a reason behind it.

Kenapa Dandelion?

Awal niat gua bikin blog itu udah dari dulu sebenernya dan sekarang Alhamdulillah udah terealisasikan. Karena menurut gua, menumpahkan pikiran yang udah luber di kepala gua ke dalam blog itu ternyata seru juga. Jadi, apa yang ada di otak gua seperti imajinasi yang melayang-layang dan memenuhi otak gua bisa tersalur dengan sebuah tulisan. Atuh mending numpahin ide ke blog lah daripada numpahin kopi ke temen lo yang lagi pake baju putih, bisa di rajam abis-abisan lo! "If you have an idea, pour it in a creation" Karena kebiasaan gua juga sih yang suka ngetik panjang-panjang, iya terkadang kalo lagi chatan ama orang gua tuh bales sepanjang sungai nil XD sebenernya ngga juga sih. Gua sih suka aja bales panjang-panjang gitu, meskipun kadang gua bales udah kek cerita novel 1 paragraf eh di bales lagi cuma 1 kata. No problem sih, kalo lagi rajin-rajinnya ngetik panjang aja waktu itu. Kalo lagi mager ya jawab seadanya aja. Terus gua kan punya kebiasaan suka nuli

Jangan salahkan udang

5 Feb 2017 Gua saat ini sedang terbaring lemah di kasur gue. Karena tadi malem gua muntah-muntah akibat keracunan makanan sendiri. Well, jadi gini ceritanya.  Gua kan niat masak hari itu. Alhasil gua beli sayuran ke warung, gua liat ada udang. Gua jadi kepengen, karena gua juga udah lama ngga makan udang. Dan akhirnya gua beli.  Nah, yesterday i have schedule to doing Beres-beres rumah. Gua nyuci baju sampe ada kali 2 bak besar terus ditambah gua nyuci sepatu sampe 10 pasang lebih kali.   Kalo lagi ada pekerjaan banyak, gua mewajibkan diri buat menjadi seorang yang “Multitasking” jadi kaya misalnya hari ini kegiatannya : cuci baju, cuci sepatu, masak, cuci piring, kerjain tugas. Jadi, misalkan gua nyuci berarti gua sembari motong-motongin bahan yang mau dimasak nanti. Nah, kemaren tuh ceritanya gua nyuci udang terus gua tirisin. Gua taro di paku gitu yang rada atas biar kaga di makan kucing. Salahnya gua disini ga naro di freezer. Mungkin sangking banyaknya nyuci

Bagaimana Menikmati Hidup Tanpa Gangguan Sosial Media?

Mungkin susah ya di zaman milinieal ini kita ngga punya sosial media. Apalagi orang-orang yang hidupnya ngga lepas dari gadget, pasti agak susah seperti halnya gue juga yang begitu. Gua yakin sih setiap orang punya sosmed, meskipun ada juga yang ngga punya. Kalo pun punya juga, seberapa banyak waktu yang dipergunakan untuk menatap layar gadget ngga sesering yang lainnya. Ya ada sih tipikal semua akun sosmed semuanya punya tapi sering update tentang kesehariannya. Tapi ada juga yang sekedar punya dan jarang update tentang hidupnya. Mungkin yang jarang main sosmed ini emang pada dasarnya dia gamau show off sama hidupnya, atau mungkin juga mereka sibuk dengan dunianya. Seperti sibuk sekolah, kuliah dan kerja yang memungkinkan frekuensi bermain sosmed ngga sebanyak yang ngga punya kesibukan. Wk, gabut seperti gua. Pernah suatu hari gua mikir, kaya gimana ya orang yang ngga terlalu sosmed-an banget terus keliatan kaya menikmati hidupnya banget? Ada ya orang begini, lah emang
