JIGOKU RAMEN - BANDUNG A WORTH MENU FOR CHEAP PRICES

Ramen??

What is the thing that flying on our head when heard or read or see or even write that word? Japan Noodles? Yesss!!! That’s correct because I did that too.

The reason why I write this story because I’d just hang out with my classmates on past Saturday 24/05/2014 for eating Ramen. In the end of our class, we felt really bored (actually during the class, we were just talking about this ramen in socmed –whats*pp- when lecture explained the lessons --*cough*rebel*cough*)

In the end, we are going to go to this Ramen Shop. Though at first we doubted if there’s a resto that has opened in 10 AM for lunch. Lol.

Fortunatelly we reach this Ramen Shop at 11, it’s JIGOKU RAMEN. Gladly the resto has opened and almost full, but we still have another space for us without waiting list! Yeay! So, the rumour about this resto that really wellknown with its price and numerous waiting lists it was true! We saw it by ourselves.

This Ramen Shop -JIGOKU RAMEN- is Adel’s reccomendation, we agree to follow Adels as we curious about it. Actually my another friend El/Elis has told to me about this JIGOKU RAMEN before Adel was, but unfortunatelly I just have time when I was with this classmates.

 (P/S Hey I write JIGOKU RAMEN several times, more over this post about it. I should get the fee for this advertising! Lol).

Anyway, should I mention my classmates that hangout in this ramen shop? OK. There’re Mbak Era, Ugun (Gunawan), Wimal (The Chairman), Wati, Adel and me.

We ordered our own choices, too bad I can’t remember those various menu except Adel’s Jigoku taste (sort of taste), Ugun and Wimal with their Jumbo Ramen, and ofcourse mine with my Katsu Ramen.

My Chicken Katsu Ramen

For beverages I forgot again what were ordered by my friends except me and Ugun with our own Lime Ice, Wimal with his (weird) Thai Tea (not means that tea is weird, but I just don’t like Thai tea, because it similar with Indonesian milktea and I don’t really like it) and mbak Era’s green tea (ow~ I do love green tea ever <3). 

Review : 

1.       The picture that displayed in the Book’s Menu really similar with the meal that we received!! I amazed of that, and the portion is perfect.  

2.       I definitely loved original ramens, but eventhough this ramen has been improved so it has lot of taste, rich with seasoning which has been adapted for Indonesian taste, but it didn’t bad at all, more over it was DELICIOUS! And I admitted if Jigoku Taste (ramen flavourous with something like citrus leaf make it perfect). It DELICIOUS. Ah, I forgot 2 Best Taste for dressing based on Adels were Ultimate, and Jigoku. But I choosed Soyu because I loved original Japan taste even more. 

3.       And about the spicy. You can choose your own level, 1,3,5 is free, higher than that, spicy sauce will be charged per level. I don’t like to be spicy so I just choose level 1 because I’ve to be careful on spicy, Ugun choosed level 5, I tasted it and it definitely crazy for me :-|

4.       The portion is perfect, jumbo was perfect for guy, because it’s hugeee. And normal for female like me, but tbh, when I choosed Katsu Ramen, that Chicken Katsu only (without its ramen and dressing) already make me full at that time.

5.       The beverages that showed in display really similar with the beverages that we drink. I reccomend Lime Ice. It’s Fresh, Sweet, Sour and more ever delicious. Auwww I LOVEEDD that really.

6.       The last but not the least of course the PRICE!!! How can I believed if my Ramen + Beverage below Rp. 25000,-??? It is cheaper than another ramen shop!! But trust me it worth!!! Really!!

Notes :

• Remember with the waiting list rumour.It’s true because we couldn’t stay longer just for taking chit and chat after we ate, and stand by at 11 AM if you wanna safe and get the space.
• I heard if this Resto has theme each day, such as horror movie for Friday night or candle light dinner for Saturday night. GREAT IDEAS.
• This ramen has various menus with average price but it really worthed. This ramen shop around University of Widyatama Bandung. If you wanna know the route with commute or private vehicle just ask me. More over you can search it by yourselves
• About this Ramen Shop, Visit Here : Facebook Jigoku Ramen and Official Twitter Jigoku Ramen
• Once again. I didn’t even remember how many times I write JIGOKU RAMEN and I tend to recommend this Ramen Shop. It COUNTLESS you know!!! Ow maaaammm~~~ I should got fee for this advertising xD

MY FRIEND’S ONCE IN A LIFETIME LUCKY CHANCE!!
GOING TO UNIVERSITY OF TOKYO (TOKYO DAIGAKUEN/TODAI) FOR FREE!!!

UEHAS SHORT COURSE PROGRAM.

Hi everyone, I wanna talk about short course abroad for now. Um... It’s similar with student exchange or it’s indeed student exchange? Well Idk. I have no experience with that stuffs.

Thursday or Friday, in the end of April 2014, our only 10 students in a class got shocked. Why? because our class chairman, just called him Wimal (yea~ his name’s Wimal) announced if our program got the offer from University to send candidate for UEHAS (Urban Environment and Health in Asia) Short Program that will be held in University of Tokyo.

OMG. OMG. OMG. NO WAY!!!

The most shocking person is absolutely ME!! You know, University of Tokyo?! Are you kidding me?! Maannn... for  all Japan lovers, who is the one who never heard or didn’t know anything about that University?

I mean.. Hellowww.. It’s TODAI which is in television always appear as University that difficult to be broken, many films or doramas showed how difficult to pass the entrance exam, and this is the number one University in Japan.

University of Tokyo

I excited. Bilion times I’ve got excited!!! But the excitement going down as if I fallen from a cliff when I knew if application has to be submitted by the next week.

Are you kidding me?? I don’t know if infos that have gotten by us seems received too late for our class. Idk about that, but first of all.. I dont want time beat me. My friend and I who wanna try it have to run in a rush.

UEHAS Program is event that held once a year from University of Tokyo, concerned in public health and environment if I didn’t wrong.

Here are the requirements for application :

1. GPA, must over that 3.00 for scale 4.0
2. TOEFL min 520
3. A motivation letter
4. A proposal of our research with topic public health and environment.
5. A letter of health examination.

You know, that punched me down again, because my TOEFL score isn’t that high, my English is the real bad. So I took another exam for my TOEFL and lobbying my Program to allow me submit my latest score after I took another exam. Then they allowed me.

But.. destiny told it ways, the score wasn’t come out before the announcement of candidates. I am failed. Not only that, in medical check up, my doctor didn’t lemme passed because my old desease attack me again so I didn’t allowed to have that letter of health examination before I finished my treatment. 

I try to lobby my program. But.. helloooo... The University wasn’t my grandpa’s properties, of course there are another applicants that have submitted their application and they’re better than me.

In the end.. I FAILED!!! JUST FAILED. And I didn’t lie if my heart hurt for did not reach my dream university. 

My close friend (she’s my classmate) passed the administration requirement, she was interviewed by university, together with another applicants from another class and from the another Program (Public Health Program) who are being interviewed. Week later, program announced if she’s (Called her Adel, Adella is her name) passed from that examination and she’s the candidate for UEHAS Program and will going to Tokyo next October. To be honest I’m jealous to her, but what can I say? I admit if she’s much better than me, and somehow I’m proud of her because after all there’s a candidate from our class that has passed. Moreover I’m swear I’m proud of her because she’s younger than me and got that talent and chance. How Lucky she is. :’)

Hence, I shouldn’t have to cry or jealous or feel betrayed or feel bad to MY self. OK, tbh I felt that. But more I’m thinking clearly with this cold head more I found the way, why Allah didn’t lemme passed. And I could found the values from this story, as following :

1.  Finally, I checked my medical record after long times ago, I knew my weakness. I’ve got treatment from doctor, and now I’m healthy again, and ofcourse I wont ignore doctor’s advice again.
2. I did TOEFL exam again, and success to passed the 520 score, well even it was just a bit higher than before but I’m happy, somehow I kinda show this good result.
3. This is just realized yesterday from my sister (cousin) Rieka, she told me “Just take the good thing from this story, your motive to go to Tokyo just for feels how the TODAI in drama is like and the most important is just to see your lovely Idol YABU KOTA, that’s why Allah wont let you passed..” and just like hitted by something in this area *point my own heart* 
4. I just wanna cry in my deep heart and wanna apologize if I just try for only to do those kind of things. Not to learn or study.. OMG what am I to be honest??? I’m sorry My Lord, God, Allah SWT. I’m sorry...

Well... after this kind of lesson, finally I understood if in that past time my motivation wasn’t right.

Yes, forgive me.. where in the world am I?

I have to work hard, learn harder, study harder in the rightway, do the reasons that have to be doing since first. Yes, I have to change! Change to be a better one.

Oh, about the UEHAS Program, You can see it here!! Just try it next year, everyone has chance, so do I :)

MY HAMSTER STORY.

Warning !!!

Before you read this post, please notice, English wasn’t my first language! I’m Indonesian, but idk, somehow I just comfort to write in English eventhough it was this messy, just like this post. OK there,,, see yaa :)

MY HAMSTER STORY.

I have a hamster. Technically it is my younger sisters (si bungsu), she got it from his boyfriend.

The story was started when my lil highschooler sister got a present from her highschooler boyfriend for valentine gift (me : youngster =”=) which is a couple of hamster the white one and the brown-grey one.

Because I interested in Japan, I’ve my fav idol that named MORIMOTO RYUTARO, his face just like hamster and hamster is his nickname, beside MORIMOTTO is marmot in Japanese. I know marmot different with hamster but I thought it is similar isn’t it? LOL. 

My Hamster Ryutaro and His Hamster,photo source : http://fanrichan.blogspot.com/

So then it is decided. I give the names for those hamster Mori for the female and Motto for the male.

Left the white - Mori, Right the brownie - Motto, they disturb me always

Unfortunatelly, Mori and Motto weren’t befriend. Mori always turtoring and bite Motto, it caused Mori and Motto have to be separated. Hence, my lil sister give motto to our 4 years nephew, he’s Fachri and Fachri just called it Mol*o instead of Motto (sounds like a cloth conditioner, LOL), and it doesn’t bring a good result. Motto died because.. yeaa.. lack of caring I guessed.

Rest.In.Peace - Motto

In the end, it’s only Mori that we have. And my sister started to bored for taking care of Mori so we release Mori from the cage and put her inside the house. Surprisingly she can survived, Mori seems to be like a litte mouse for us. She’s hidding somewhere behind the cabinet or below our bed and going out to approach us when she’s hungry. Then we just give her water or vegetable or some meat or cerealia like rice etc. It sound weird but hey!!! My hamster alive with that ways!! Lol. And about the pee or dung, we still can handle it, not to mention if hamster is only that tiny, so it didn’t caused much trouble for us.

Ow, yes, when Mori was gone (not approach us) for one or two days my lil sister always seems carried away and gonna cry. But it’s OK. Mori will come if she’s hungry apparently with body that skinny and weak. LOL. Mori always approach my mother, even when mom will going to pray or writing etc. So, my mother also loved Mori. My mother even called Mori ‘Sayang’ (Honey) and of course it was protested by my lil sister that felt jealous. Weird.

Ah. In the end my family is the strangest family I guessed. INCLUDING ME!! XDD.

Btw, That’s just the thing I wanna write.

Meet My Mori Everyone!!!!

OK there... see yaa :)

TRY TO BE BLOG AUTHOR AGAIN

DOUBLE DEGREE MIE UNIVERSITY

And ME

Hi there, I will start to writing again! Yeaaayyy!!! \(^^)/

Well, eventhough I knew there isn’t anybody who will read mine. This old and reckless journal.

But whatsoever, I wanna write again and maybe there will be posts that will flow like flood for now on. Um.. for little bit times perhaps.

Anyway, before I write about another News, regarding on my old writing, it seems I did not report my condition, didn’t I?

Um.. Where should I start?

Ah, present condition!

Now I’m being enrolled as graduated student of Environmental Science in University of Padjadjaran Bandung, Indonesia. How can I reach this level? Well~ it has a looong story.

I entered my undergraduate as fresh student in 2006 in University of Padjadjaran Majoring in Biology,

I’ve got my first title in academic as S.Si (Sarjana Sains) it is B.Sc.

My research is about Microbiology and Biotechnology, really~ I’ve more passion on that subjects.

But destiny told it ways, I graduated in May 2011 then I worked in a tourism company for one year as corporate secretary then continue my career in another company still in tourism areas (concerned in membership hotels) as administrator for another one year.

You know I’ve gained lot of money when I worked, I can pay the expensive restaurant, hang out in a cafe, shopping in a mall just with using your debt card, almost approved to get two credit cards for silver and gold, and use taxi without mind with the bills everytime, everywhere. That life is so pleasureable.

But something just missing in my life, what the heck with those kind of life?

Monday-Friday you were working from 9.00 AM till 07.00 PM or 08.00 PM? Or 9 or higher because I ever arrived in home at 10!!! Then what??? Saturday you just slept for whole day because of fatigue and on Sunday just hangout and spent your money??

Wait!!!! Hang on there a sec!! 

Then what's the essence I spent my times for almost 5 years in college?

What kind of experiment that I’ve done?I did research that caused my 3.5 years target of being graduated failed! So difficult, I just graduated 1,3 years next after that, it means I postponed my graduate day just because I did a reasearch for almost 1,3 years!!! (it’s 2 years technically) T__T

Thanks God it’s over, I’ve got trauma after that until I didn’t continue my passion. My passion about biology, technology, microbiology, and things such like that is gone, though science is my blood if you could understand that. Then I took those ways which is I’ve explained before (without thinking, so stubborn I am). 

But that was the destiny that showed it ways.

As I told it before, I didn’t get the essence from what I’ve done. A week, 24/7 in my life becomes really boring. I couldn’t imagine If I only doing that steps until I died. Yea of course inside of that I’m gonna married and having children, but beside that things, I dont want to life like that in my job career, I’m not a machine!!

Therefor, in the middle of my work the intention of science that bring the welfare for human being was appeared again. I’m not a wiser but I really wanna have a role in human’s life, I wanna be more useful for humanity and after all I wanna life as an academist. 

I wanna reach my dream to life as a scientist. After that I noted in my heart if I want and have to continue my study. I searched scholarship infos and kinds like that. My concerned is in biotechnology or biomedic or anything else about biology.

At that time I coincidentally called by my friend from my old college. Nadia Istiqomah. She said she will go to Japan as she has been approved as a student for a university in Japan.

Wait. Whatt???? How come???!! I wanna be like her! I want to!!

Then she told me everything, she said she’s attended as a student on Double Degre (DD) Program University of Padjadjaran, Indonesia – Mie University, Japan.

Wow, I surprised. Why? I didn’t know my university did that before.

My friend explained again, if there’s agreement of DD Program between Graduate Program of Environmental Science University of Padjadjaran with Twente Universiteit, The Netherlands dan ISS Erasmus, University The Netherlands (Netherland) and Mie University (Japan). 

Mie University - Japan

The system driven us to take course for two years, one year in home university then finished the rest credits in university abroad, and the cost for all college stuffs are free except living allowance, but the privilege for the one who take course in abroad, living allowance is totally free.

Umm.. first I didn’t got it, then she explained again this DD program under the scholarship from Indonesian Government, BU Kemendiknas to be correct. The candidate who won BU Kemendiknas will take this course for 2 years in Indonesia unless if we passed another selection, BU Kemendiknas will recommend us to take one year in abroad (Twentee or Mie). It means the competition to abroad wont over even after we obviously accepted by BU Kemendiknas. Netherland or Japan will decided by when we submitted our application, April for Netherland concentration on Resource Management Course and October for Rural Development and Conservation Course (just like spring or winter enrollment in abroad).

Well.. it doesn’t bad at all. I want to try it.

But this is environmental science, a bit far from my passion, this is more comprehens. I doubt at first, but once I thought again, this is the once in a lifetime chance, how can I passed it? October enrollment isn’t that bad, moreover I was born in a village so this course will help and I have a dream to be an useful person, don’t I? And this is JAPAN, country that I really admire and I always dreaming for about it.

In the end It decided. I submit my application and Thanks Allah SWT. I passed that entrance examination.

The course started in January through the matriculation in December. And now, it’s almost 5 months from that time. I’m busy with exams that almost held once a week, assignments, project etc..

Few weeks before I felt very tired because I’ve help my mother project whilst I’ve to do mine. I tired, sick etc.. But more I’m thinking about it more I realized how should I do.. I.. just have to show my Gratitude to My Lord, Alloh SWT.

I’ve done this far, I shouldn’t have to give up. I have to reach my dream and help my family with this effort. I have to. I know I am still inside this competition, but hey... competition in our life will never ending. We have to compete to be a good person and even we have to compete with ourselves, we have to be a better person each time. Wish me luck everyone...

Well.. That’s My Own Story for now.

Umm...
