How to live inside the Social Media

Social Media: Friendster, Facebook, Instagram, Weibo, Twitter, and many many more.. Nowadays, we live in a small world, which could comunicated and keep update about our daily life, and it's called Social Media.

At first, we saw something magic, something that can easily connect us to daily life, which we can easily keep in touch with someone far away.

But recently, I saw that social media is not a place to keep in touch anymore but to spread malicious comment, and even spread rumour and fake news / hoax. And I am really sad about this.
Especially during 2020 when Corona Virus Disease 2019 spread in the world.

A lot of hoax / fake news, fulfiling the social media especially whatsapp. And makes many people afraid and has negative stigma without knowing which is right and which is wrong.

When Corona begin to appear in this world, I begin to sorting which news is fake and which is right. Because, some people didn't know how to looking for the fact and just believe for what they got, and it's dangerous. Really... So I try to help them to give clarification about it.

In this pandemi global, the most things that we could do is helping others to give positive vibe. And make negative vibe be less and less more.. People always easily to have negative stigma over something. I remember when the corona spread in my country for the first time, many people sunbathing at 10 o'clock, and drink some ginger, temulawak, etc.

But now, most of them has already forgot about this. See, they just trigerred at first, but then they forgot about it slowly.

I also see some malicious comment in some social media, not only for stars or important people, but also for ordinary people. You know, it's very easy to say some malicious comment, the hard things is how to responsible about what you said.

As a traveller, I have receive some bad comments, and critics too. And at first, I got a headache and stress over it. But, someone said to me, why did you listen to them? As long as you are not like what they said, ignore them. This is your life and not them. If they want to comment, it's their business.
And I think this is very true. Why we wants to satisfied others with their comment, they are they, and I am me.

I'm sure as long as you won't respond to it, then they will be gone along with the time. It just a matter of time.

There's a chinese proverb / 成语:
半瓶水响叮当
A Half-filled bottle makes noise, while a full bottle makes none

People are very limited in their vision and not aware of what is happening around them or to the subjects that they are so opinionated about are very loud. They stand out. They make sure they are heard. They will not rest until you believe that their opinion is right. It is like a half-filled bottle make noise.

A half-filled bottle equals someone who just doesn’t have a lot of information and is very limited in their perception and awareness. A full bottle equals someone who has a lot of information and can see situations from all perspectives and come to a reasonable conclusion because of it.
The people who are working on building their knowledge, expanding their awareness, and growing in a positive way, don’t have time to shout out their opinions from the rooftop. They are busy trying to make their life and the world a better place. Credit

And my opinion, if you wants to stand in social media without getting hurt, try to ignore those fake news and malicious comment. They are not worth to us. And choose the criticize wisely, not all criticize suitable our life, just ignore it if you think it's didn't suitable you, and receive it with grace if you think it could make you have a better life without changing your original.

If you responds to those fake news and malicious comment, then those who spread it will be very happy, because you got the bait. What for? It won't give us any profit, and we will feel awful, and this could affect those who beside us (family and friends).

So, don't respond to them. Live your life like what you wants.

Time is moving. We can't stop here just to thinking all in the past. We have to move on, let the past be our base, to do the best today, for the better future. 一起加油!!

Everything happens for a reason and We can make it if we are together....

Viennetta ~~


Es Krim  ini terkenal di tahun 90'an, merupakan sajian waktu kecil dulu. Dan rasanya enak..

Kali ini, Walls mengeluarkan kembali ice cream ini dengan lapisan yang lebih rendah (1 lapis) tapi tidak mengurangi rasa dan layer coklatnya tetap ada. Namun ukurannya juga lebih panjang.

Di kota saya sendiri, dibandrol dengan harga Rp 49.500/box.

Bagi yang pernah mencoba es krim ini, bakal penasaran dengan rasanya yang sekarang. Dan cukup membuat orang sukses untuk membeli es krim ini begitu tersedia di kota masing-masing.

Jangan lupa, freezer es krimnya kurang lebih 24 jam supaya beku dulu. Karena begitu dikeluarkan, es krim ini gampang lumer.

Credit:
- IMDB
- Wikipedia

Avengers: Endgame is a 2019 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics superhero team the Avengers, produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. It is the sequel to 2012's The Avengers, 2015's Avengers: Age of Ultron, and 2018's Avengers: Infinity War, and the 22nd film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). It was directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, written by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely and features an ensemble cast including Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Don Cheadle, Paul Rudd, Brie Larson, Karen Gillan, Danai Gurira, Bradley Cooper, and Josh Brolin. In the film, the surviving members of the Avengers and their allies work together to reverse the damage caused by Thanos in Infinity War.

The film was announced in October 2014 as Avengers: Infinity War – Part 2. The Russo brothers came on board to direct in April 2015, and by May, Markus and McFeely signed on to script the film. In July 2016, Marvel removed the title, referring to it simply as Untitled Avengers film. Filming began in August 2017 at Pinewood Atlanta Studios in Fayette County, Georgia, shooting back-to-back with Infinity War, and ended in January 2018. Additional filming took place in the Metro and Downtown Atlanta areas and New York. The official title was revealed in December 2018. With an estimated budget of $356 million, it is the third-most expensive film ever made.

Avengers: Endgame was highly anticipated, and Disney backed the film with extensive marketing campaigns. It premiered in Los Angeles on April 22, 2019, and was theatrically released in the United States on April 26, 2019, in IMAX and 3D. The film received praise for its direction, acting, musical score, visual effects and emotional weight, with critics lauding its culmination of the 22-film story. It also broke numerous box office records and has grossed over $2.6 billion worldwide, surpassing Infinity War's entire theatrical run in just 11 days and becoming the highest-grossing film of 2019 and the highest-grossing superhero film ever, as well as the second-highest-grossing film of all time.

Plot:
Twenty-three days after Thanos used the Infinity Gauntlet to disintegrate half of all life in the universe,[N 1] Carol Danvers rescues Tony Stark and Nebula from deep space and returns them to Earth. They reunite with the remaining Avengers—Bruce Banner, Steve Rogers, Rocket, Thor, Natasha Romanoff, and James Rhodes—and find Thanos on an uninhabited planet. They plan to retake and use the Infinity Stones to reverse the disintegrations, but Thanos reveals he destroyed them to prevent further use. An enraged Thor decapitates Thanos.

Five years later, Scott Lang escapes from the quantum realm.[N 2] He travels to the Avengers compound, where he explains to Romanoff and Rogers that he experienced only five hours while trapped. Theorizing the quantum realm could allow time travel, the three ask Stark to help them retrieve the Stones from the past to reverse Thanos' actions in the present, but Stark refuses to help. After talking with his wife, Pepper Potts, Stark relents and works with Banner, who has since merged his intelligence with the Hulk's strength, and the two successfully build a time machine. Banner warns that changing the past does not affect their present and any changes instead create branched alternate realities. He and Rocket go to the Asgardian refugees' new home in Norway—New Asgard—to recruit Thor, now an overweight alcoholic, despondent over his failure to stop Thanos. In Tokyo, Romanoff recruits Clint Barton, now a ruthless vigilante following the disintegration of his family.

Banner, Lang, Rogers, and Stark travel to New York City in 2012.[N 3] Banner visits the Sanctum Sanctorum and convinces the Ancient One to give him the Time Stone. Rogers successfully retrieves the Mind Stone, but Stark and Lang's attempt to steal the Space Stone goes awry and 2012 Loki manages to escape with it. Rogers and Stark travel to S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters in 1970, where Stark obtains an earlier version of the Space Stone and encounters his father, Howard, in the process, while Rogers steals several Pym Particles from Hank Pym to return to the present. Rocket and Thor travel to Asgard in 2013, extracting the Reality Stone from Jane Foster[N 4] and retrieving Thor's hammer, Mjolnir. Nebula and Rhodes travel to Morag in 2014 and steal the Power Stone before Peter Quill can.[N 5] Rhodes returns to the present with the Power Stone, but Nebula is incapacitated when her cybernetic implants link with those of her past self. Through this connection, 2014 Thanos learns of his future success and the Avengers' attempts to undo it. Thanos captures present-Nebula and sends past-Nebula to the present in the former's place. Barton and Romanoff travel to Vormir, where the Soul Stone's keeper, the Red Skull, reveals it can only be acquired by sacrificing someone they love. Romanoff sacrifices herself, allowing Barton to obtain the Soul Stone.

Reuniting in the present, the Avengers fit the Stones into a Stark-created gauntlet, which Banner uses to resurrect all those whom Thanos disintegrated. Past-Nebula uses the time machine to transport past-Thanos and his warship to the present, where he attacks the Avengers' compound, planning to destroy and then rebuild the universe with the Stones. Nebula convinces past-Gamora to betray Thanos and kills her past self. Stark, Rogers, and Thor fight Thanos but are outmatched. Thanos summons his army to devastate the Earth, but a restored Stephen Strange arrives with other sorcerers, the restored Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy, the armies of Wakanda and Asgard, and the Ravagers to fight Thanos and his army alongside Danvers, who destroys Thanos' warship as she arrives. After overpowering the heroes, Thanos seizes the gauntlet, but Stark steals the Stones back and uses them to disintegrate Thanos and his army, then dies from the energy emitted in the process.

Following Stark's funeral, Thor appoints Valkyrie as the ruler of New Asgard and joins the Guardians of the Galaxy, while Quill plans to search for 2014 Gamora. Rogers returns the Infinity Stones and Mjolnir to their original places in time and remains in the past to live with Peggy Carter. In the present, an elderly Rogers passes on his shield and mantle to Sam Wilson. In the final scene, Rogers gets to dance with Carter in the past, finally loving the life he always wanted.

South Korea Multiple Visa

South Korea Visa?
When people hearing about applying for South Korea Visa, a lot of people has already feel it's complicated, because too many documents that needed for apply a visa. But here's it is, this month I try to apply for South Korea Multiple Visa.

One of condition to apply Multiple Visa is, you had went to South Korea at least 1 times. And I have already been there 2 times before, so I decided to apply Multiple Visa.

At first, I plan to apply at the embassy directly. But after ask around, many multiple visa that applied via travel agent also has been approved easily. I live in Magelang, located at Central Java. So the fee to go to Jakarta is too expensive. So, I decided to apply via Travel Agent.

The other requirements is as same as when you are applying for Single Visa. I just modify my Sponsor Letter for multiple visa and give statement to why I want to apply for Multiple Visa. Everything is just addition, if you didn't want to add them, it's okay.

======================================================
Multiple Visa Requirements:

1. Passport that still be used at least 8 months before expired and also old passport that have Korean Visa inside.

2. Copy of all pasport name, visa and stamp.

3. Copy of identity ID

4. Copy of Birth Certificate

5. Copy of Family Card

6. Sponsor Letter
example

7. Copy of Bank Reference
    You can ask from the bank, usually they already have a format for it. Just make sure it is in English, and to Embassy of South Korea.

8. Copy of bank account transaction the last 3 months
    If possible, please don't add any significant amount between 3 months, if you wants to borrow some money from your parents, you can add it before 3 months. Or, you can borrow little amount by amount and don't forget, make it beautiful (income, and outcome). There's no rule how much do you need for the amount, just make it as you have job and live.

9. Copy of SPT Tahunan (annual tax yearly).
    Some people said, if you didn't have this, you can still apply by make statement if you didn't have SPT PPT21 / annual tax letter, especially when you apply directly to embassy. But, if you apply from travel agent, they will ask you to provide it at least, maybe from your parents, brothers, or sisters. But if you really don't have it, they are willing to proceed it, with applicant consent (approve or not is all by embassy, or if embassy ask for it, you have to be able to provide it later).

Statement letter didn't have SPT PPH 21 / NPWP -- example

10. Multiple Visa Statement Letter
      I decided to make statement letter, with materai 6000 and my sign. So the embassy will be more trust me that I will always back to Indonesia before the maximum of stay. This letter is not mandatory.

example
11. 2pcs of Pas Foto 4x6cm / 3.5x4.5cm with background white.
      My travel agent ask for 4x6cm Pas foto, but in application form it said 3.5x4..5cm. So you better ask your travel agent for it. In embassy, it also required 4x6cm.

12. Copy of deposit billing, credit card billing, five stars member, etc.
      This is just additional, you don't have to include it.

13. Copy of Flight Ticketing
14. Copy of Voucher Hotel
15. Copy of Itinery
For number 13-15, for travel agent, they wants this to be included, but in embassy, this is not mandatory.

If you want to try to apply directly in embassy, you don't need the flight ticketing, voucher hotel and itinery. But remember, for SINGLE ENTRY, once the visa granted, it will expired after 3 months from the date it granted 
-- for example, the single visa granted at 10 January 2017, so before 10 April 2017, you have to enter Korea --
Usually, the flight ticket has already very expensive. Many people buy the promo ticket which more than 6 months before departure. And the risk is, the visa is not granted. 

Because I plan to go on November 2018, and I have already had Flight Ticketing, and Voucher Hotel, so I send all of them. I still plan to go to South Korea on April 2019 for Cherry Blossom Festival, but I haven't had ticket yet, so I didn't mention about this in my letter.

======================================================

That's the requirements for applying Multiple Visa, which is the same when you apply for Single Visa.

For information,
Single Entry Visa: IDR 576.000 in Embassy
     via travel agent that I use to apply: IDR 850.000
Multiple Entry Visa: IDR 1.296.000 in Embassy
     via travel agent that I use to apply: IDR 1.600.000

Multiple entry visa proceed only 1 day once our documents enter the embassy. But if you apply via travel agent, spare about 1-1.5 weeks processing time because they need to send it first to Jakarta and send back.

You can check the application via Korean Application Visa Web.


application date: 12 September 2018, status under review

application date: 12 September 2018, I check it on 13 September 2018 afternoon, and the status is APPROVED.
Multiple entry visa will get 5 years of South Korea Visa, with maximum of stays 30 days everytime you enter Korea.


It's easy, as long as you provide all documents. So, Let's go to Korea again and again for the next 5 years.

Mirror Stone Cave and back home > Day 05 > Labuan Bajo 22 April - 26 April 2018

Wake up in the morning, We go swimming while enjoy the morning. 


Then eat breakfast and prepare to Check-Out.

my favourite breakfast, sunny egg side
Before go to Airport, we go to Mirror Stone Cave. Located only 4km from the city. From the car parking, we have to walk around 300 meters. 

Traditional Hut for Manggarai People, here's broken already

Batu Cermin Cave discovered in 1951 by the archaeologists as well as the Dutch pastor, Theodore Verhoven. Cave has an area over 19 hectares and 75 meters high. From research conducted Theodore Verhoven, Batu Cermin Cave is one of the cave under the sea which is then lifted to the surface. The sunlight that broke on the sidelines of the stone then reflected so give the impression of gloss on the stone (Mirror Cave). The reflection stone that later became the origin name of Batu Cermin Cave.






The stone in Batu Cermin Cave contains salt particles causing the stone sparkled when exposed to light. To watch the gleaming stone tourists need to go to a depth of 20 meters in a narrow area of the cave is 200 meters long.

Batu Cermin Cave also has stalactites and stalagmites, which even takes the entrance of the cave. Therefore, in a tour is limited only 10 participants with the tour time of 30 minutes. Then alternate with other visitors. At least the incoming sunlight made the air in the cave is quite humid. Besides the sparkling stalactites and stalagmites, Batu Cermin Cave also offers views of fossil corals, turtles, and tortoises that were in the cave wall. The fossil scenery looks very clearly. The fossil also contain salt particles which reinforce the opinion of Theodore Verhoven. Explore the fossil landscape gives visitors to learn the life in ancient times. Beside there are the other sightings of a white rock formations long and close to incoming sunlight. This is similar to the stone of Maria statue so that by Christians called Maria statue. Especially with the garnish sunlight coming around. Batu Cermin Cave is also enlivened by the presence of animals such as bats, spiders, and crickets.





Visit Batu Cermin Cave, the visitors must be consider not to touch the stones in the cave because they are still alive and able to continue to grow. If exposed to human hands, not only the growth stops, but also lose salt particles so it does not appear to sparkle again.

After explore the cave, we go back to parking lot and eat some coconut and coffee.


Then we go to restaurant near Airport, but unfortunately, the restaurant is overbook already. So we go to another place to eat.


Then we go to souvenir shop near airport to buy some souvenir. And go to airport to back to Magelang.

Good bye Labuan Bajo, maybe I will go there again with another group.
Thank you for Mr Akbar, Mr Robert, and Mr Untung who help me and my friends arrange our trip.
