hiking


This is what I call with real adventure. I have never tasted this great adventure before. Usually we (my fellow teachers) just go for a casual adventure. We went to Mt. Puntang in Banjaran. It was raining season at that time. But we insisted of going for we really...I mean really really need some refreshing after some hectic in school.
Mama was our leader. There were 7 ladies and 3 men only. 4 of those ladies are married women (is that really necessary to be mentioned here??????????). They were great despite the age. They could handle the rough stony path. In the middle of our journey , rain poured heavily. So....we were all soaking wet. Our destination is the waterfall. Somehow we couldn't reach the place because there's landslide. If we insisted of going there, we had to clinging on the big tree root . On our left side is a cliff. No need to endanger ourselves, so we decided to return. It was disappointing of course but we can always come back.
During our journey of returning to our post, I was trembling for we hadn't got our lunch (we're still amateur). My hands felt so aching and cold. I felt that in any moment I could die. And that was the moment I started to shake with fear of my own sins and the smell of death. I started to remember Allah. Geez....it's so human. Whenever we encounter trouble and rough times we remember Him (well, at least that's me). Where are we when we're happy. Does He exist? ( that's the question for me). I think I was still given some times to mend my act. I am still alive. I could go home though soaking wet and trembling. Wearing only my jacket and my mukena I went home accompanied by Pa Sa'di. Thank you Pak for willing to send me home.
We still have many hiking plans. Somehow we get addicted. There are many beautiful places outthere waiting to be visited by us. So....deungsanhaja!!!!!!!!!

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...

Yutnori

Yutnori Apa itu Yutnori ? Hmmm... pernah dengar yutnori (dibaca: yunnori)? kata ini bukan berasal dari bahasa Jawa tapi bahasa Korea. Yutnori adalah nama salah satu permainan tradisional Korea.  Permainan ini biasa dimainkan secara beregu ketika acara tahun baru Korea yang disebut juga 설날 (sollal) . Tahun baru biasanya menjadi ajang kumpul seluruh anggota keluarga. Selain makan Tteokguk , mereka biasanya memainkan Yutnori . Ini penampakan Yutnori , ada papan permainan dan dadunya. Yang unik, dadunya tidak bentuk kotak seperti kebanyakan dadu pada umumnya tapi berbentuk batangan. Hal lain yang membedakan dadu  yutnori  dari dadu pada umumnya adalah tidak ada bentuk titik-titik yang melambangkan angka. Yang ada itu tulisan  도  (Do),  개  (Gae),  걸  (Gul), dan  윷  (Mo) .   Eh, permainan ini pernah muncul disalah satu drama Korea yang dulu nge-hits banget dulu, Princess Hours. Kalau tidak salah di ep...

Historical Visit

Historical Visit Besides visiting Baduy. We also visited the old Banten. Banten used to be the most popular kingdom. It is known till England. Once their representative visited England and they were welcomed exaggeratedly. Banten is famous because it had an international port for trading. People from many countries visited it. Unfortunately there’s disagreement between the father—Sultan Ageng Tirtayasa—and the son—Sultan Haji who collaborated with the Dutch—which lead to the destruction of the palace and the vanquishing the offspring of the royal family. They now spread everywhere. The remnant was unknown back then till recently on the initiative of one person there the digging was conducted. During the old regime, Old Banten was stated to be dead site. So, not like Borobudur temple, the Old Banten remained infamous. The reconstruction was done very slowly. You can see in my pictures there. Instead now, the site is famous for the people who believe in magic tricks. They wh...
