Today is just like any other day for Terry. Is she feeling bored? No, that’s not it. The feeling is geared more towards anxiety, curiosity and on top of that… fear. It shows from the way she kept on scratching her nails - in fast-constant-movements – and from the way she walks and passes her favorite café...
Well, maybe some of you think that we need more than 3 reasons to date a man or woman. But trust

Polyglot people usually have -at least- a special quality that might fit in your ‘list of date criteria’.
Sudah kesekian kalinya kami mendapatkan pesan dari Mrs. X. Beberapa dari kami mulai bertanya-tanya mengenai keberadaan Madame misterius ini. Ditengah perdebatan ringan tentang sang madame, tiba-tiba saja Ulum mengetik kata ‘Pizza’ pada grup WhatsApp. Tanpa disadari pembicaraan pun beralih topic, dari wanita misterius pemberi pesan menjadi fashion kota Milano di Italia.

Seperti hari-hari biasanya, gadis rantauan ini tengah sibuk memasak dikosanya. Seiringan dengan suara minyak panas yang tengah dipenuhi dengan beberapa potongan ayam, terdengar alunan musik dari dalam saku gadis tersebut. Matanya langsung tertuju pada layar.

When my two children and I lived abroad, I spoke Indonesian to them daily. Timewise it was definitely challenging. Why was it tough? Well, because I already left the house to go to work before the sun was up and came back only after the sun sets. Yes, really! When it was winter time.

Sesuatu sengaja dilemparkan ke pintu biru di sebuah gang sempit padat penduduk yang sebagiannya dihuni mahasiswa. Adalah Zaza, seorang gadis paruh baya berkulit sawo matang, seketika terbangun dengan rambut hitam teurai bebas-berantakan sembari bertanya dari mana suara gaduh itu berasal. Seolah tak acuh, ia pun berdiri dan melakukan aktifitas layaknya tak terjadi apapun....
Just last week I met a high school friend during a reunion; to be exact, she was from my high school in Jakarta (ergo, Indonesian: this piece of information is important to note) although we didn’t know each other then. She’s currently residing with her family in a non-English speaking country in Europe, let’s say D, since her husband is a national of D.
