Faith Commercialization
Watching some great talkshows like Today’s Dialogue, Save Our Nation (both are aired by Metro TV) and Tatap Muka (produced by TV One) featuring greatly influential figures has become one of my hobbies. Freshly invigorating opinions, warm exchange of ideas, so many things to get from the shows but sadly I fail to find the… Continue reading

3 Steps to Stay Wrinkle-Free
For both men and women (as there are now more men paying more attention to their appearance), having wrinkled skin face is clearly uncool.

Restoring My Feeble Reading Mood
Don’t know why it’s harder for me to find some alluring ideas to be my post. So I’m now back to basic, I’m just going to tell you what I’ve been doing since this afternoon. Going to a department store with some relatives is what I just did. While they were having fun, sightseeing, and… Continue reading

Things to Learn during ‘Mudik’
Of all socio-cultural phenomena I’ve ever encountered, ‘mudik’ is apparently the most colossal and massive in number of participants. I am never actively involved in this ‘mudik’ euphoria myself. I’m merely a bystander, a passive spectator, who is constantly listening to how hectic and screwed up ‘mudik’ has become lately. Traffic accident here, traffic jam… Continue reading

Monetizing Your English Grammar and Writing Skills
When someone is pretty much dissatisfied with their current income or just finds himself sacked owing to the crisis, the idea of getting a side job is naturally tempting. No one can resist extra income, can they? What I’m trying to write is my own personal experience about how to make some money from my… Continue reading

Past Continuous/ Past Progressive
It’s used to express something that began in the past and was in progress at a particular time in the past. For instance, it was 7:00 p.m., the TV show began. I started to make a tart cake at 6:55 p.m. and it would take me an hour to finish making it. I was making… Continue reading

How Passion can Transform Your Blog
The title above is actually a title of guest posting written by Leo Babauta at Darren Rowse’s Problogger.com. The theme is somewhat hackneyed, I must admit, but some people may still find it useful. In his post, Babauta was preaching in great details how critical the role of passion in each of our blogging activities… Continue reading

Who I’m talking about here is a group of Indonesian… Continue reading
