HOLIDAAAAAAAAAAY!
hoho.

here I am, having a very 'relaxed' day while almost all my friends are struggling with their exams' preparation. (this post isn't meant to mock you guys or anything, I'm just being honest, really!)  
miss u guys a lot though :(

This holiday, I got to spend 1 month and 10 ++ days with my family, especially my dad and brother whom I don't get to see a lot during my study days. 

Boy, you've grown.
My brother recently joined the Super-Teen Holiday Camp and he was SUPER-excited with it. He went through some positive changes, like : faster movement, responsiveness and healthier lifestyle. 

Before, it really is a grueling task to ask my brother to do anything for anyone. It's so gruesome, that doing it yourself is less tiring than to make him do it. true story.
But now he has changed, he responds more toward commands. I hope it last forever and get even more responsive by time, so I don't have to do my signature 'big-sis-in-power-eagle-gawk' to him anymore.

Well..


Walk for SATE
These days, I walk with my papa more, usually we walk to a supermarket which takes about 45mins walk from home.
But there is one time that I walked with him for 3 HOURS, and the drive behind it all is the really strong will of my father to get me moving and healthy and to get himself to his favorite food : SATE KAMBING. Yes, I walked 3 HOURS just to eat that thing. hahahaha.

But that was a great experience, I observed a lot of things on our journey through kampung-kampung .
I like to see how they live.
For example, they still burn their trashes (I have to cover my nose and stop breathing for a while and wish that the wind would blow to the other way), there are chicken running around, and the people there like to sit around in front of their house or nearby warkop.
and, They always look at my dad and me as we went pass by since we look so odd (maybe) or simply because we're strangers with backpack.


Because of My Mom Health Report,
I try to live more healthily now, knowing that the diabetes gene code  might have been embedded in my DNA, which means that my insulin is not as effective as normal people.
But that's fine i don't really like sweet food either. :)
So now, I'm trying to stop eating white rice because apparently as I have read everywhere, it's has little health benefit (white rice release sugar faster which makes blood sugar level unstable)  instead I eat brown rice, very bland but very recommended by health websites.

Got You in My Hands BABY!
Another thing that I got to do this holiday is that I get to read more books. like : HBR, Detektif Ekonomi, Kata-kata Bijak Warren Buffet, What I Wish I Knew When I Was 20, and .......
SUPERFREAKONOMICS! 
YAY! I've been wanting this book for soooo long, but I hesitated to buy it because it's still expensive.
And now that the cheapest print has came out, I fell in love at the first-price-label-glance. WOHOO! Let's go home and I'll undress your plastic!
HAHAHA
