Pasar baru




Ini Pasar Baru coy. Yup, this market is called Pasar Baru where you can find goods in a reasonable price of course that if you know how to bargain. If you are foreigner, you need to bring along your Indonesian friends who know how to bargain or else…. Mostly those buyers who come here are retailers. They buy the goods to be sold again. But not all of them are merchants. Some of them are housewives, students or tourists. If you don’t feel satisfied with the price at one vendor, you can just walk away and search for the other vendor who will give you the same goods but with cheap price. It’s a matter of feet here. Why did I say that? It’s because you have to do the walking a lot. You have to move from one vendor to another. If you are not a real shopper, you will get so bored and get cranky and leave right away or just buy the goods and forget about the price. That’s me. I am not a real shopper, so I always bring a friend of mine who is really good in bargaining. Women’s skill some said. But I don’t own that. I forgot to tell that you can also shop fabric here.
Need some stuff at cheap price, just go to Pasar Baru and not to forget to bring a friend who knows how to bargain if you don’t have the skill. Okay, c ya!

프라이팬 놀이/Frying Pan Game/BTS

Playing Frying Pan Game/BTS We played a new game called Frying pan game (프라이팬 놀이) with our Korean guests in our Korean Class. It was fun. It’s like catching the mouse game. We learn the Korean numbers in the same time.  Say, if your friend mentions your name and the number, you have to mention your name according to the number he/she mentions previously.  For example, if your friend says "Dana dul (2)", so you have to say your name twice, "Dana...Dana" and so on and so on. If you make a mistake, well, you get the punishment. The type of the punishment depends on the agreement of the players. They are many types, trust me. Just choose one.  This game was played on one of the TV programs in Korea hosted by Kang Ho Dong (강 호 동), Hye Ryong said. 재미 있네요. 우리 애들이 놀이를 좋아해요.  But hey! BTS too played this game on one of their TV shows.  You can check out the video  here  So far, we have learned many Korean games. Mostly we got from Korean T

Bungeoppang a.k.a Taiyaki

Bungeoppang a.k.a Taiyaki “ What did Archimedes say? “Eureka”. I would like to borrow his word for my little success although I didn’t invent anything. ”     Aku udah bingung banget cari resep Bungeoppang , kue isi pasta kacang merah berbentuk ikan. Coba beberapa resep tetep tak sukses. Lalu aku tengok resep sodara tuanya Bungeoppang , Taiyaki . Ceritanya dulu orang Jepang yang memperkenalkan Taiyaki ke Korea saat jaman pendudukan mereka dulu. Nah, kalo orang Korea bilang Bungeoppang itu sama a ja  dengan Taiyaki . Untuk sejarah   Taiyaki dan Bungeoppang bisa dicari di Wikipedia . Infonya lengkap.   Back to my story Nah, setelah tidak berhasil dengan resep sebelumnya (kegagalan dijamin ada dipihak pembuat kuenya bukan di pembuat resep ^^;) aku kemarin iseng dan penasaran cari resep Bungeoppang dalam bahasa Korea tapi ga dapet. Ada sih satu tapi ga detail dan aku ga ngerti. Trus aku cari resep sodara tuanya aja, Taiyaki. I am lucky. Aku dapet beberapa resep Taiyaki. S

Dora The Explorer Dan Oreo Termahal

Dora the Explorer Dan Oreo Termahal Badan pegal – pegal karena terpenjara selama lebih dari lima jam. Ditambah lagi harus berhimpitan di kerumunan manusia saat festival. Begitu masuk ke dalam  subway , yang pertama kali ingin kulakukan adalah tidur. Ah leganya ketika kulihat ada kursi kosong yang bisa kududuki. Enaknya bisa selonjoran untuk mehilangkan rasa pegal di kaki. Rupanya ketika aku tertidur, muridku iseng mengambil foto diriku yang sedang tertidur. Refleks aku terbangun. Begitu tersadar, tiba – tiba muncul seorang anak kecil bersama ibunya. Mereka berdiri tepat di hadapanku. Harusnya aku beri kursi itu pada mereka tapi ada sedikit kebingungan soal memberi tempat duduk di Korea atau di Jepang. Terkadang para orang tua menolak tawaran tersebut. Terlebih lagi jika kita menawarkan kursi itu pada orang yang masih muda. Salah satu alasan yang kutahu adalah mereka tak ingin terlihat seperti orang tua. Maka, tak heran jika beberapa orang tua pun terkadang menolak diberi kurs
