So, this post will be containing about 5 questions which people asked me when I was in Taiwan.

1.       为什么你比他们白？ (Why is your skin fairer than them?)

-这个你别问我，可能是基因和激素的原因。

-DON’T ask me, maybe it’s because of gene or hormones.

2.       为什么他们都会用头巾盖头？ (Why do they hijab?)

-他们大部分穆斯林教都这样，别问我我也不懂。

-Because she is a Muslim and most of them actually used it.

3.       那为什么你没有？ (Then why you didn’t use it?)

-我是佛教的。(不是每个印尼人是穆斯林好吗，请不要误解，也不是每个穆斯林都用头巾)

-Because I’m Buddhism.

4.       为什么你才来几个月中文就这么厉害？(You just came here for few months, why your Chinese is so good?)

-我是印尼华侨。（印尼也有会说中文的好吗）

-Because I’m an Indonesian Born Chinese (?)

5.       你是香港人/台湾人/韩国人吗？(Are you a Hongkong people/Taiwanese/Korean?

-我是印尼人。 (长得太国际化了吗)

-I am an Indonesian.

其实还有很多问题，就说台湾好玩吗，台湾玩完了吗。还可以，还没。

拜托台湾这么大我不走丢已经谢天谢地。

再次提醒，印尼人也有会中文的，印尼人大部分都很友善 （我好像不在里面）。我们也有穆斯林，也有基督教，佛教，印度教之类的。印尼很大，很多岛所以请不要问我印尼我都逛完了吗。

而且我没那么有钱那么闲空去走完。

老娘也许要赚钱养自己好吗。

There are still many other questions such as does Taiwan a good place to play, have you done walking all the places in Taiwan? Kinda good; not yet.

Taiwan is a big place, I’m glad and grateful enough that I am not lost.

And FYI, Some Indonesians can Chinese language, and most of them are friendly. We had the Muslim, Christian, Buddhism, Hindu, etc. Indonesia is a large country and there are a lot of islands, so don’t ask me whether I had finished travelled around Indonesia or not. I have no money and not enough time to travel.

Wtf did I do this year?

I am not sure, but to sums up my 2017 life, it is not quite bad though. I mostly remember big events only and all of them are good one, such as……….

1.       I quitted, yes I didn’t resume my contract to be a teacher, maybe it will be one of my regret but for now, I am quite glad to stop in the path and gave myself a second of thoughts, where I think I am not suitable to be a teacher, although I would like to teach kindergarten or elementary students where I think it will be so much fun. I believe that all choices which we all take are good, so if you feel regret on the choice you took, try to think the positive way in it, you will feel much better.

2.       I had my studies in Taiwan for four months. This is quite tough because I need to survive on limited amount of money since I don’t want to make my parents stressed up because of me. I was the one who plead them so much to let me to study in Taiwan, at first they won’t allow me because they afraid that I couldn’t take care of myself, and yes I am a person that had no plans of the day, I do whatever I want on that day so that’s why sometimes I can’t settle my deadline works (SOMETIMES ONLY). But I was totally glad that they allowed me to go to Taiwan, there are a lot of stuffs that I learnt in there, not only in studies but also life matters.

3.       I spent my 20^th years old birthday in Taiwan! Which is quite memorable because I am in the first year of head 2 and this made me decided that I will do something memorable every year on my birthday or birth-month.

4.       Joined a Christmas event which is the first time in my whole life! Well, it’s funny because the day before I went to the event, I went to a Buddhism Museum and watched a Buddhism cartoon about kindness and stuffs. And I started to think it is totally different where Buddhism talks more about being calm and peace while the event that I joined was like asking us to join their plays, about getting merrier and merrier.

5.       Ate hotpots! The first time I had this kind of hotpot! Of course it is different with the one that I eat every Chinese New Year. There are meats where you can choose beef or pork or lamb. And you can choose others side dish, I can’t finish it though (as usual), the vegetables only, there are a lot of vegetables (maybe I ordered the wrong one).

6.       Trying hard to finish a lot of dramas before the month end! Just for 3weeks I had finished a lot! Because I don’t want to feel that I didn’t achieve anything.

7.       Last big event is, I am HAPPY and BLESSED.

P.S.: Actually I’m quite glad that Semester 2 and 3 made me relieved a bit after what I experienced in Semester 1, where my schedule was totally packed even on weekends.

I am glad that I had given a chance to this, where I can go to Taiwan and try to live my life without family, to be honest I missed a bit about Batam, especially the seafood, chicken rice, bak kut the, aboleng and my guling.
