Quick Pick

There's this annoying feeling when you want or you feel like you need to post something on blog but you don't have any idea on what to post. I am currently on that state, at least for the past 20 minutes. Then I looked around my room and decided to pick some random things that catch my eyes. So basically this is a really unimportant post and me trying to practice my messy written english on a Friday night. Feel free to skip this if you want to.

1. Lelaki Tua dan Laut, the indonesian translation for Ernest Hemingway's novel The Old Man and The Sea. My 20th birthday present form Dinda. Always love the bright cover design. It's about an old Cuban fisherman struggling to prove himself that he's not a cursed fisherman. The story's about optimism, which is great. It's also written in perfect details so you can really picture what it's like to be a traditional fisherman. Anyway I haven't finish it. Actually there are plenty of books (real ones, not medical books) I haven't finish yet due to the minor thesis I'm working on.

2. Donny Dhirgantoro's second novel, 2. This is also a birthday present from my KKN friends (KKN means Kuliah Kerja Nyata, some kind like college student's community service). I love Donny Dhirgantoro's work. He really has his own style in writing, especially the theme about nationalism. This book is filled with brilliant quotes that makes you wanna highlight all of them right away. Yes, I haven't finish this one also. Blame the minor thesis.

3. How I Met Your Mother second season DVD. I have just became a HIMYM fan like two weeks ago, while this show has already reached its seventh season. I must admit, this sitcom got its own touch and it really captures me on the heart. Love the story, love the comedy, love the characters!

4. Scut Monkey Handbook: Clinician's Pocket Reference. Bought it last Monday on a medical books sale in my campus. Some friends recommended this to me and said it will help a lot on clerkship. Since I will be on clerkship like 5 months from now (hopefully), I decided to buy it. I bought this for Rp 100.000, usually it's about Rp 150.000.

5. Laura Vandini body lotion. My mother bought this from Vienna. Really love the pleasant scent and the slight shimmer on it.

Catch up later!
