New Morning Activity
We enjoy new environment, new house, new atmosphere and also new daily activity. In the morning when the sun rise in the East, we can see the beautiful mounts Salak and Pangrango from our terrace and balconies. I felt just like starting a new life with a new spirit when I see the stunning view.
Today, my husband, Dea and I spent the morning by riding bike around our cluster, while Anin and Rafif still sleeping. After foresight-seeing we went to the club house. Dea and her father couldn’t deny the temptation of the beautiful swimming pool with the “blue” water; they swam happily until they got exhausted.

Dea also played at the children playground near the swimming pool. But then she felt hungry, so we went home to have breakfast. I don’t know why I always feel hungry here, in Bogor. When I was in Palembang, breakfast was not a must, because I didn’t feel hungry. But now, it seems that I don’t want to miss my meal time, I want to eat and eat and eat… wow, any food taste delicious here in Bogor!

Thinking about our new house is an excitement. I always think about how to make our house more comfortable to live in. So, as usual, I browse the internet to find what I should do to our new house.
I just think to equip the house with the unique high quality product. What kind of product? This question is tangle in my mind until finally I find Farrey’s online store that sell many beautiful products for home.
The Ceiling Fans at Farrey’s are amazing. There are so many options such as Casablanca ceiling fans, Craftmade ceiling fans, Emerson ceiling fans, Hudson Valley lighting ceiling fans and many others. I think it’s smart to choose ceiling fan instead of air conditioner because the ceiling fan does not only reduce the heat but also can be a beautiful element of decoration. And one thing, it is safer for the world deal with the global warming issue.
Farrey’s offers not only ceiling fans but also a wide range of unique high quality products for home such as bathroom products and bathroom hardware, kitchen products, doorware, lighting and lamps, and ventilation and vent fan products.

Having Fun at Fun World

Last Sunday, after attending a wedding party, I took my kids to have fun at Fun World,
Playing was really fun there, at least for the kids, that what I saw on their faces. Rafif and Raihan laughed and waved to me and Rika while they were sitting on the moving small- train.
Anin, Dea and Dilla enjoyed playing ship coaster. Then they tried fishing toys. Each of them got a necklace pen, but they were not satisfied. They tried another game to get more reward, such as crocodile punch, crazy crab, catching doll and many others. But, it seemed that they were unlucky, they only got few cards to be exchanged to a reward: a sticker. Oh…poor girls! ha..ha..
Raihan and Rafif took another action. They played at the Toddler Play Ground. They swam on the ball pond, climbed the stair, slide down and hopped happily.

Raihan and Rafif seemed so big among the kids who played there. Of course they were, because these kids had the same hobby : eating!. ha..ha...
After playing, the kids felt hungry. So, we went to our favorite café “French “downstairs, on the lower ground. We enjoyed chicken noodle and tea while chatting and sharing happiness and joy. I love hang out with family!

Swimming at Butterfly Swimming Pool

We went there. It’s located on the Grand Garden residence, Palembang. Actually, it’s the sport facility for the people who live at the residence but it’s opened also for public.
The atmosphere there was quite cozy. There were two swimming pools, one for kid and the other one for adult. On the floor of the pool, there was a blue butterfly pattern. It made the pool looked nice.

There were only a few people there. Some kids were being trained to swim on the big pool. Some other just played around the small pool. It’s not crowded just like any other swimming pool on the week end. So, the kids really enjoyed swimming and playing in the pool.

While watching the kids swimming, I and Wati, my sister-in-law, ordered food on the menu list. There were not many options, just fried rice, chicken porridge and noodle. But, we had to wait for almost two hours! (oh my God), to enjoy our meal. I didn’t know why they took so long to prepare our order. It seemed that they were not ready, since the place was newly opened.
I thought the management of this swimming pool should give a better service for the visitors, so they could attract more people to come to this place.

Having Dinner with Family

There were wide ranges of food in the menu list such as many kinds of noodle, fried rice, sate, Palembang food, many kinds of soup and soto, oriental food, etc. But our favorite food was “konro bakar”. It’s a kind of steak with Indonesian spices, but it’s originally from Makassar.
Our favorite beverage was “ jus kacang hijau” or greenpeal juice served with coconut milk. We always order this food and beverage every time we visit this place.
We enjoyed our dinner and our togetherness. It’s something I’ll miss if I move to Bogor on next June…

Gold Made Easy for Gold Investment
It’s time to think about investment. Some people came to me and offered me some options. One of them told me that spending money to buy property such as house and land will be beneficial. Some other gave more options such as Stocks, Bounds, Mutual Funds, and Money Market Funds which sound too sophisticated to me.
I bought 600m2 lands. But then I had a bad experience when someone else claimed that the land was his. I was surprised how it could be. How the land could have two certificates with different version. Although finally I could get my money back, but I didn’t think buy land was a good investment.
Buying houses was a good choice, but I had to spend a lot of money to maintain the houses.
These experiences lead me to search for the best kind of investment, which can bring wealth, security and satisfaction. Finally I’ve decided to choose gold ownership. In the current investment world, with yields still running below the inflation rate and stocks and bounds still suspect, gold remains healthy and safe alternative for investment. Gold has been the standard currency which is accepted in almost anywhere in the world. Its value tends to rise continuously. Since 2001 gold has tripled in value.
Browsing the internet, I find Gold Made Easy, an Aurum Advisors website which is known as well and trusted gold brokerage house. It gives me much information about acquiring a gold and precious metal portfolio.
Gold Made Easy offers certified and bullion gold coins with many types and prices, such as The American Gold Buffalo, The American Gold Eagle, $20 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle MS 65, Australian Gold Nugget, and many more. Other precious metal such as platinum and silver are also available.
Gold Made Easy also offers portfolios such as personal security portfolios, family security portfolio, collector’s portfolio, precious metal acquisition portfolio, retirement portfolio and Aurum wealth portfolio.
So, think about investment is think about gold ownership and Gold Made Easy.

Rafif’s Cooking Class
On Wednesday, 23 April 2009, Rafif and his classmates from 3 to 6 English Course had a cooking class. This was the first experience for Rafif, so he was enthusiastic. The cooking class was held at Bogasari Kitchen near the PTC mall.
The Chef, Mr. Suyanto from Bogasari welcomed the kids by giving them chocolate wafer. After giving explanation, the Chef and teachers assisted the kids to make mini pizza.
Rafif and his friends were excited when they put mushroom, beef, sausage, cheese and paprika on the mini pizza. They can choose the topping they want for their pizza. I laughed when I saw Rafif ate a piece of mushroom, but then he said,” Yuck! What is this? I don’t like this!”
When the pizzas were ready, they seemed so delicious. The kids ate them and brought some pizzas home. Rafif gave the pizzas to Anin, Dea, and his Nanny. He said “I made pizza by myself.” proudly…

Choosing Special Gifts for Children
Andy, one of my old friends called me this morning. He wanted to come to
He said the main reason he came to
Andy told me that he wanted to give something special for Deny and Farah, but he didn’t have any idea. He wanted to bring the gifts when he comes to
I suggest Andy to buy children books which can stimulate reading interest of children. He can read them story book to build uncle-nephew bond and creates a fun experience together.
There are a lot more options he can choose for the gifts. Toddler Clothing is a good option, but since he has never seen the children, maybe he would find difficulty to choose the clothing size.
Toys and Games could be the best option. He could find toys which are not only safe for children but also have educational element.
Andy said he couldn’t wait to come to

For my Beloved Husband on His Birthday
My dear husband,
When I was a little girl, I imagined someday I would marry a prince who loved me.
In my naïve mind, I imagined he was so handsome, the most handsome man in the world.
Yes, it was my dream. It was only the immature longing of a little girl who loved romance.
But when the reality comes, I find more than just a dream comes true.
Although you are not a prince and you are not the most handsome man in the world, but …
You are the one who makes me happy
You are the one to hold me when I’m afraid
You are the one who made me a Mother
You are a man among men
You are my love, my soul mate, my leader, my hero
Happy birthday, my husband…
Thank you for making my life more beautiful than my dream
With all my love,
Dewi Sutedja

Rafif Got Asthma Relapse

Last Sunday, Rafif got asthma relapse. The day before, he ate a bar of chocolate while he got cough. It was my mistake. I shouldn’t give him chocolate until he is fit. I didn’t have the heart seeing him breathed, seemed so hard. He refused any food I gave him. That was never happen if he’s healthy.
I called Doctor Aditiawati, the pediatrician. She didn’t answer the phone. Then I sent her sms. Several minutes later she replied, she said that she was in Jakarta.
Soon, I took Rafif to the Emergency Unit of Charitas Hospital. Susan, his nanny and Anin accompanied us. The nurse there helped him to get inhalation trough nebulizer. The doctor gave me prescription. Then we went to the drug store to get the medicine.

His condition wasn’t getting better although I had given him the medicine twice. That evening, I took him again to the Emergency Unit. He got inhalation again, and again. “Mama, I want to go home…” H e said. The doctor suggested me to continue to give him the medicine.
“Honey, if only I could substitute, let me bear the illness..” I cried in my heart.
Thank God, now he is getting better. I’m so happy to see him smile and laugh again.
