The death

I just finished reading the article about the sudden loss of the motorcyclist, Simoncelli, during his MotoGP battle in Malaysia this afternoon. He was received a serious injured on his head, neck, and chest because his body was tossed from his motorcycle and collided by his rival's motorcycle : Valentino rossi and Collin Edwards. He's in unconcious condition being transported by ambulance to get emergency medical treatment. After 45 minutes, the official MotoGP announced that Simoncelli was sadly dead and the game was stopped. Everybody was in shock especially his beloved mom, dad, and girlfriend who were there to give him number one encouragement to win. They were witnessing theirselves that dreadful accident which bring death to their son.

A week ago, still fresh on my memory, the death of Apple co founder, Steve job, was being officially announced thru apple official website because he has been suffering pancreatic cancer in his 5 last year. It was unbelieveable as this saddening yet shocking news came a day after the release of Iphone4s. People all over the world extended deep condolonces in various way without decrease any respect to him. Honestly, I am not a loyal fans of Apple, but i have to admit that Apple's product is such a great innovation to the world. People now abandoned the usage of Compact disk because of the creation of itouch. People now can easily buy the music online because of the existence of Apple online store. To some musician such as Good Charlotte and Coldplay as i cited to their official twitter, Steve Job has succesfully been indirect contributor to their income. Also, number of people are getting employeed because of him. Not really exactly know who they are, but one of the Youtube Artist is now really well known because his intelligence skill of combining instrument's sounds using iPad. As im googling it more and more about him, i revealed new facts that makes me adore him. He's defintely inspirational leader, revolutionary man, and inspiring speaker. I presumably believe that these are the reasons why many people love him.

Few months ago, my friend posted a emotinally moving video. This video is actually an advertisement about Thailand's insurance company. Its about a deaf father who willing to give up his life for the sake of his impolite daughter. I can somehow predict how the end of this movie is going to be, but i still can not hold my self to not crying. I was easily touched with this kind of movie which explore much on unconditinal love that a father give to his daughter regardless of anything. I strongly believe that no one else will love me like my family does.


Now, in my facebook home, friend kept posting a video how heartless people in China who can leisurely walking away when there was injured small girl weakly floundered in the street after being crashed by car. No one eagerly to help that girl until a young lady who suddenly realized and come down to rescue her. But, it was too late. That innocent girl was sadly dead. It called into question what happened to today's society? They are who's appear on that video, are they a human? But im not surpised when i saw this video, people nowadays are less respectful to other. We tend to put our high expectation toward other people that we recently know. We want them to do like how the way we want it to be. But as i grew up, i am experiencing it my self that my life is confronted with many type of persons so that i cant force them follow the way i think. When we were in elementary school, we learnt that if someone were in trouble, what we do is to help him. In fact, in reality, it does not work ( as you can see in that video). People are individualistic. They will do everything that make them happy without any second thinking about you. I dont want people to see me as a fragile person, so i keep my expectation low.



The death is something inevitable yet scary at the same time. No one can control it except God. It just come to all of us at the end of the day with their own way. I start to realize how precious my life is, being surrounded by wonderful family, friends, and enemies. But, i begin to ask my self ( exactly the same like Steven Job did ) "How if today were the last day of my life, would i want to do what i am about to today?"

Macaroons

Hi everyone! How's life threat you all guys? I am doing fine after certain period struggling about the food i had consumed in Europe during my summer course programme. There are numbersssss of stories i wanna share with you all, but not at this time. This post i want to focus on a colourful french cookies called Macaroons. So, after reading an article about the trend of pasty shop business in one Indonesia famous magazine, I highlighted that they mention about one brand that pretty famous in French called Pierre Herme. So, the story is about a Indonesian chef that being inspired by Pierre Herme's product and he tries an oppurtunity to open Online Shop that sells macaroon and cupcakes and it turn out to be success! Speaking of Pierre Herme, i spent hundreds euro dollars to buy this adorable cookies. And i just realized that this brand is quite well known for their macaroons. A special thing about Pierre herme is that they are not focused merely on their macarons, but design of their packaging also. Design has become important process of a creating the product because it can affect the selling point. It was proven! A factor that i want to try their product because they offer a different cutee box with different range of price as you can see below :D If you visit paris, surely dont forget to buy this Pierre herme which is perfectly located in the sophisticated shopping mall in "Gelerie LaFayette"

source: google. A mouthwatering gift to your relatives at home! =D
See how adorable the macaroons are.

The round box. Buy this box if you want to keep your macaroons in shape!

Guess how many macaroons are there.....

Actually, i was like running a mission that i have to try each country's macaroons as i was travelling to some places in Europe. Here we are, my first stop and first macaroons in Belgium-Brussels, Chocopolis. Chocopolis are not really into macaroons, they specialize in their Belgium handmade chocolate that has various flavours. What i like from Chocopolis Macaroons's is their size that quite big ( compare to other macaroons that i have tried ), the smoothness when we bite it, and last the buttercream in the middle of it. I like macaroons that easily melts in my mouth ( re : not crispy ) . You can find my favourite flavour by looking at the 3rd or 4th picture. =D






Next, my second macaroons from Trick and Treats in Utrecht. Utrecht is a city where my summer programme was held. So, i could buy their macaroons everytime i want. But unluckily, I dont really like their product because they were really different from the first macaron that i've tried. The colour that they offer is not really attractive and pretty much similiar to each other. Also, the buttercream is not really vary, they only have vanilla and chocolate flavour i think. But this is all about individual personal taste.



5 macaroons r left. =D
After approximately 3 weeks i spent my time in Utrecht, precisely when my programme has finally over, it comes to the time when i have to leave this city. I hate to admit the fact that mostly all the men over there are god's increadible creatures. The combination of perfect body, flawless face, and good attitude ( Re: friendly ) ! <3<3 A good reason of hardly say goodbye to this city, no? :D

The last one, the legend of macaroons, Laduree. I found this oh so well known shop incidentally when i was looking for a disney store. My eyes straightly put an intense attention to that elegant shop which combines gold and green yolkie at the same time. The Queque was amazingly unbelieveable. I can see that everyone put their best effort by patiently waiting to get this popular macarons. They sell variety of macaroons with 18 different flavours ( mostly they only come with 10 flavour ) and size! I have tried the big chocolate macarons ( 8-10 cm diameters) and it was soooo freaking gooood. If you dont really like macaroons, you should try their beautiful yet mouthwatering cakes that comes in attarctive colour, design, and shape. Anyway, The price here is pretty expensive, it is doubled from Pierre Herme but trust me they are really worth it.

if i knew that this little thing exist, i surely get my self 1!! source : google.


people are in line. source : google.

Undoubtedly i would say thank you to all the genious man behind these intriguing macaroons, esp mr. Pierre Herme who invented the best recipe of macaroons in the world. I am tottaly fall in love with your macaroons so so so much! i wish he deliberately open Pierre herme's shop in south east region asap, partcularly in singapore before i graduate next year, hahaha!

Additional two macaroon's picture that i get in Singapore and Surabaya. Not bad though..



These are all macaroons that i have tried, how about you guys? A good quotes that you should keep in mind : when Life is uncertain, Eat dessert first.

Charity day

Here we go. Me and my friend two days ago carried out charity work to share some love with our friend in orphanage. This orphanage is located right in the corner of Kembang Kuning. ( Fyi, kembang kuning is one of a cemetery complex in surabaya ) So, we picked them up ( the total was about 26 persons include 4 kind of nanny ) and bring them to Tunjungan Plaza ( one of the biggest mall in surabaya) . Because there is no movie in our cinema now, we cancel our first plan to watch movie together and we went to Stringer ( is a indoor playground ) straightaway. I personally feel so terribly tired to take care about 5 child at the same time .. They were about so hyperactive. I involved my self in the all of activities they did likee... i played "mandi bola" with them, i pushed their toy car behind to move somewhere, etc.  After 1 hour playing, we headed to McD to have lunch together. Its so difficult to gather them all and to ask them sit nicely while waiting for the food to come. They played their straw actively here and there. The most extreme was they took a chili sauce with them, inhaled by their straw, and then blew them up to their friend. Yeah, the 4 hours really takes my patience yet i was so happy because at least i can bring happiness to them. Here some pictures that me and my friend took.

cheers ^^
