Goodbye!
3 tahun yang lalu
I just finished read some books this past few weeks,,
actually it took a long time for me to finished those books recently,,
usually i can finish one book in one or two days, but now due my work i finish one book in a week or more even for a thin book.
oke, enough for the story, now, we're back to the topic,,
i wanna share you some books that I've read,,
here we are:
1. Guru-Guru Keluhuran
This book tells about Indonesian soldier who was born in 1920 and still alive, they're not just a soldier who fight in a war physically, but they fought for education, welfare, etc. This book told us about the opinion of the soldiers, what they thought about the condition of Indonesia nowadays,, and their hope for Indonesia to be better than now,,
its a good book for me,, it gives you a knowledge about point of view of a soldiers who fought for Indonesia's freedom,, even though they're born in the era of war, no technology, no facilities like today,, but their dreams is much more bigger and higher than people nowadays,,
they dream high, they dream for wealthiness, this book give you a chance to see a world in a new point of view,,
Every one must know Gus Dur,, he is our fourth president,, not only in Indonesia, Gus Dur also famous around the world, he also received a lot of noble during his life.
Gus Dur already passed away in December, 30th 2009,,
he is a very plural person, and he loves his people very much,,
this book tells about his biographic, his carrier, his joke, his life, his point of view, his thought,,
i recommend this book,
3. Berbekal Seribu Akal Pemerintahan Dengan Logika
This book tells about Jusuf Kalla, and i bet you know him,
he is our vice president and he also a businessman,,
i admire him so much, i like the way he thinks and how he can solve a problem,,
he is a problem solver and a quick thinker, maybe its because he is a businessman, so he has to make a quick, and right decision..
this books actually has the same topic with the book above--Perjalanan Politik Gus Dur-- but with different key person,,
i recommend this book also,,
4. Chocolat
This is the last book,,
its a novel,,
i bought this books because i interested with the resume, but honestly, i don't really like the book after i read all, i just didn't understand this novel, maybe because I'm not good in analyze the novel, but i just didn't find it interesting,,
this novel tells about chocolate, a chocolate maker in which a daughter of a witch, a priest, their life, their neighborhood. the novel tells us how the chocolate maker can survive in her life, fought with all the neighborhood and the priest, and how can she win the battle and live happily,
if you are someone who like novel and its abstract, you can read this novel
that's all the books for today, i hope it will give you another choice to chose books to buy,,
have a wonderful reads,,
and keep reading, cause book is a window to the world,,
Actually, i wanna write this topic for a long time ago,, but due to my laziness i haven't write my blog until now,,
right now, i wanna share my experience,,
i am in Pekanbaru right now and i rent for a room here,, it costs Rp.500.000/month. what i'm gonna tell you is about the owner of the room that i rent. they are husband and wife,,
i call them 'ibu kost' and 'bapak kost' even tough they had they own name,, ^_^
every week, ibu kost always cooked us some food,
here are some food that she gave to us
not only make us some food, she also took our clothes every afternoon in order to keep our clothes dry,,
her husband also good to us,, he always help us to pick up our water gallon from the grocery to our room, the gallon is heavy and he is old enough to pick up the gallon, but he still help us.
in the morning, our ibu kost always throw away our garbage, clean up the yard etc,,
all i wanna say is they are a good person, actually they don't have any duty to take care of us, but they treat us like their children,, its a lil' bit difficult to find kind of person like them who helped people with favor and not expecting anything from us, while almost all of the people in the world only think about money, people nowadays will help someone if they think it will give them advantage,
but not for them (ibu and bapak kost), they just help us because they want to help us and they considered us as their children.
not like any owner of the dormitory or apartment,, the owner only gave the customer the room and the facilities inside the room, they do not care about anything else, as long as you pay the rent in time they will not disturb you, but if you pay the rent late, they will come to you and ask you to pay it as soon as possible, and if you don't pay it they will ask you to get out from their house..
you usually do not have any interaction with your ibu kost and bapak kost, they only care about your rent, your money,,
but not like mine,,
this is my fourth time rent a room, twice in jakarta, once in palembang and once in here in pekanbaru.
when i was in jakarta, my first room that i rent didn't satisfy me, we didn't have interaction with the owner, i don't even know the owner, because the owner had ask someone to keep the house, so we just know the keeper,, i only stay there for one week and the i move to mangga besar, inmangga besar i found the nice owner,, and i love to stay there, but my job make me to move,, i only stay there for 3 months and then i moved to palembang,,
in palembang, the condition is the same with my first room, we just met the owner when we want to pay the rent,, and then i moved again to Pekanbaru,, so here i am, in my room typing this blog,, telling you that the owner of my room are good persons
although i have different ethnics and religion with them, they still treat me and the other like their children.
i love them, and i don't have any plan to move from this room while i'm still in Pekanbaru,,
i hope i can be like them, helping people without expecting something from the people that i help.
i wonder that this world will be more beautiful if we act like ibu and bapak kost.
