Being Healthy with Bananas

This morning, Visiting foreigners' registration office for 3rd times without nothing I really seem like a sucker. As started with my first visit was not success
because I arrived too late, whereas I actually have been waiting for 3 hours and the results was nothing. .
Furthermore, in my second visit I hoped I will be success but I did a small mistake namely I've forgotten to bring my overview of grades during 5 semester as required to extent my visa when someone has been studying in University for more than  3 Semester.
Absolutely I was being a sucker for the second times. .
And Today being my third effort, Hopefully I will get it. Waiting for 3 hours in the dark cold morning at 06.30 with the temperatur under 10 degree of celcius, I was standing in front of the door's foreign office, I bring my laptop to write blog and PSP to playing FIFA 2010 with my thick jacket I've already been waiting for 3 hours here, and If there is paparazi there, and if they take my picture. mybe in this situation I seem like an obdachlose (homeless person).  but I don't care about. The important thing is I get my visa asap today.

To fill my time with this shit I would like to share my reasons about why we do need more sport activities in our daily life, about the amazing of bananas according to my opinion and about why I have to change from the bad-organized habit for foods to well-organized habit for foods as diet programm.


Although people around me always are laughing for what I am doing now. .
because my body is not bulky enough but I wanna do diet programm. :D
According to my opinion, the diet programm is the programm where we eat more foods but absolutely with health foods.

For example : Normaly I was eating 3 times a day but now in my diet programm I eat 6 times a day.

• At 7 O'clock drinking low fat milk with oatmeal or some eggs, 
• 9 O'clock eating fruits and breads with nutella,
• 12 O'clock eating boiled potatoes with meats and salad,
• 15 O'clock eating fruits like bananas and milk
• 18 O'clock eating spagheti with fish and eggs.
• 21 O'clock drinking milk and bananas or apples.

and now I try to change my quota about consuming daily food with :

"eat before hungry, stop before satiety"

but at least, after 2 month I've been showing people around me, and they say, you look bulkier than previous months, So, I am so happy to hear somebody tell me that truth or lie, but  if that is right or maybe they just say that to make me happy . 

but because I usually think positive I purpose with the first words where they said you look a little bit more bulky. so that is. .:D

Because of that  story, Now I wanna share about this.

This what I'm doing started with my rice-cooker has been broken for the second times, so that I can't eat rice in my daily life. It's absolutely making me stress at the past, because previously, if I didn't add rice in my day, I wouldn't feel enough saturated with food. But positively I got the advantages from my broken rice-cooker for the second times.

At that first time when I was buying rice-cooker. I got some advices from my indonesia friends that they say, Don't buy rice cooker in Germany because of its bad quality. Because I don't easy trust with people before I try. so I try. .I bought rice-cooker in Germany and it's just hold out for 9 month. so, I directly told my mother and father to send me the rice cooker from indonesia asap. .because my first rice-cooker from indonesia was able to be used till 3 year. Therewith I don't believe anymore with the quality of made-in German rice cooker products in German stores. Nevertheless for any other product outside rice-cooker I believe in German product in high quality.but sorry for their rice-cooker products I should honestly say No. .

So, my first reason to come back with doing more sport came  from my broken rice-cooker as I explained above.  Because of its, I am forced to eating breads, spagheti, or potatoes which are better carbohydrate foods compared with rice where it is very bad and it can have impact badly to the persons who have diabetes in their blood.

The second reason was because of the fearness about diabetes. Since I was young I ve got several infos about the bad impact in our body.

And the third reason, because I have been willingly drinking normal wasser without sugar since I was in 15 years old. And when I was in indonesia, sometimes I was thinking how people can get the real taste of tea or coffee if they always add more sugar in their cup of tea or coffee.It seems like to make some food. if we add much more sugar to our food it can make its taste being badly.Fortunetely, While I live in Germany, I get free normal water alias water from the tap.and Especially the tap water in Bremen-Germany can be directly well-consumed or drinkable.but when I was staying in Berlin, its tap water has the bad taste, I had to boil before I consume.

Having more free times in this fifth semester have been my fourth reason doing more sport like as I was in senior high school.

and for the last reason, because of my previously environment including my mother and father had educated me how to live healthy . .

I saw they cared about their healthy so I care with healthy too. They consumed healthy foods in their daily life, so it automaticaly influences me as their son. And it can be analogized if many countries did well for their citizens, it can be the prosperity of the country can be equal. The poverty rate will be automaticaly reducing because of rising the health rate of its citizens . .

So, it's all begun from ourselves. .

Well, the stupid problem is I am always too late realizing about those all occasionally that they were educating me in good things. .

Now if we're talking about food, I am being hungry now. .

but I will tell you in my last minute about the truth what I feel when I consume banana. .

Honestly, I prefer to consume bananas than any other fruits. And if you know the banana has much more advantages for our healthy.

For me personally, after I have eaten bananas, I get more energy for my daily routines, and get more power to thinking about.

Moreover when I am usually in exam situation where we use our brain with the best performance.

Eating some bananas can help me to give a power to my brain to thinking. .

It is maybe because I can't thinking if I get hungry. . .:D

but absolutely my brain is not located in my stomach. .

The facts of bananas contain vitamin B and B6 which can help us to increase our moods and can help us to avoid stress in whole lectures that we don't understand.

And my feeling  always say it can be increasing my happiness from happy to be happier I usually bring bananas to campus to avoid brain error when the lectures begins. :D 

Or perhaps, sometime banana can help avoiding the human error in their life. :D

So thanks for reading, hopefully you get something after reading my quite simply and chaotic note . .:)

Sweet Stories From Barcelona

Time keeps running, and world keeps turning, whereas I didn't have time to update my story on my blog.
It's so bullshit if people say that they didn't have time to do what they wanna do.
Especially a man who study in business where business people should keep able to manage time properly.
But then, we have to go on. it's just my opening sentences of my story but we can learn from that sentence namely about philosphy lesson that can be captured from this event is we can't regret past time.

Oke guys This time, I want to share my solo trip was in Barcelona. I did solo trip but I actually didn't feel alone in my journey there. There I brought my little friend who is a canon (camera).
He accompanied me to around that town. so I absolutely felt enjoy with my solo trip.
I was spending a budget approximetely 200 € there for just a week but honestly I got so much more than what I spent there beforehand.

• 2 ways flight cost (Lübeck - Barcelona) with ryan air cost 60 €.
• Bus ticket from Hamburg to Lübeck Airport and vice versa cost 20 € ( one way cost 10 €)
• Bus Ticket from Barcelona airport to Barcelona city was burdened 11,30 € (one way  cost 5,65 € )
• for foods I bought some foods in Lidl discounter shop where sell a cheap product.
• Hostel for 4 nights cost 64 € ( about 15 €/nights)
• and its rest expenses I used to buy foods in unexpensive restaurant

And one night, I slept under the blue sky trying to feel how a homeless can live along their life without home.
And it was not so complicated because every building can be visited freely and without doubt to go to clean toilet. :)
In Barcelona I didn't use public transportations because in my philosophy it wouldn't be so interesting with easy way to go somewhere. Walking around the city with our owned foot We can get more experiences.
for examples :
Maybe people get fear if they have lost their way.
but for me, it can be a super exciting where we are as a human being should find the right way from many wrong way. and it perhaps can be a manner to contact with social to learn about the people.
and it can be a lesson to understand people with different language and with limited understanding each other. but it's so fun.

I also usually bring a city map and try through different way to capture a best spot.
because that I believe in every place has its beauty side.
And my friend canon helped me to saved every moments that I visited. :)

the most positive thing of  when I was walking with my foot around its Barcelona town was I have been successfuly to bring my weight from 73 kg to 69 kg because of walking about 30 km a day.
I was being a vegetarian there. eating fruits and vegetables almost everyday were being my entirely daily foods in Barcelona and being healthy absolutely. :)

Barcelona in my point of view was so incridible and magnificant city.
Every city corners had a special design architecture.
and I can garantie you that all of those beauty just can be felt when you use your foot to go around that town., Barcelona also has many special place to be enjoyed.
I was also thinking if I have a wife, I will place our honeymoon in Barcelona. :)
Not only Indonesia has beautifull beach, but also Barcelona has it too. Barcelona has Montjuic mountain where there is a big castil above there.

The Standard Living Cost Differences (Germany+Indonesia)

Talking about the dissimilarities of living cost between in Indonesia and in Germany might be able to bring us into being astounding, because the mostly reality of living cost in Germany hasn't many disparities with the living cost in Indonesia.
Here I wanna bring you to find out a little bit its differences.
The special city of Indonesia which I will be using my previously living cost in Yogyakarta to be my measuring instrument and to compare the living costs of a couple cities in Germany where I was.

Yogyakarta is the only one small famous city in Indonesia with the cheapest standard living cost for students and called also as the city of student.You can meet with students from another cities of the whole Indonesia there and it belongs also the tourist city instead of Bali.

When I was doing my Senior High School/Abitur (Germ.) in Yogyakarta for 3 years, I still remember how much Euro (€) I needed to cover my living cost a month there.

• A rented room per month / Miete (German Word) :  circa IDR 200.000 or it's just about 15,38 €
• Estimate of food costs per month : approximatel IDR 620.000  or it's just around 47,70 €
• The monthly Accommodation fee : about IDR  336.000 or it's about 25,85 €
• The tuitution fee a month : circa IDR 600.000 or it's about 46,15 €
• Other monthly expenses : circa IDR 300.000 or it's about 23,07 €
• Total standard cost of living monthly : about IDR 2.056.000 and it's about 158.15 €

Yogyakarta where it's small beautiful town I ever lived compared to Jakarta where is the capital city of Indonesia and it's absolutely the living cost will be more expensive than the previously town I talked aforementioned about.
In Jakarta, I was attending the small German course for just 3 months and I was preparing my departure to Berlin-Germany for examples : I had to take care of my visa and anyway attend a couple German Tests of B1 Certificate.
Therefore I wanna show my expenditures for living in capital city.
But I actually stayed at my family house or ever once in a while at my friend appartment.
so I was paring my living cost down.
Nonetheless I could assesment the standard living cost of students there.

• A rented room per month / Miete (German Word) :  circa IDR 800.000 or it's just about 76,92 €
• Estimate of food costs per month : approximatel IDR 1.085.000  or it's just around 83,46 €
• The monthly Accommodation fee : about IDR 350.000 or it's about 26,92 €
• The tuitution fee a month : circa IDR 600.000 or it's about 46,15 €
• Other monthly expenses : circa IDR 300.000 or it's about 23,07 €
• Total standard cost of living monthly : about IDR 3.135.000 and it's about 241,15 €

From the capital city of indonesia, I will bring you all to see the living cost in Berlin where is the capital city of Germany. Right Here I found the cheapest döner price (a Turkish dish made of roasted meat cooked on a vertical spit.) namely  about 2,50 €.

From there, the döner price had been being my measurement to establish how inexpensive is the living cost of surrounding Germany.
In Berlin, I was doing my German Course to prepare for the Aufnahmeprüfung (entrance exams) of studienkollegs.

• A rented room per month / Miete (German Word) :  circa 170 € or it's just about 2.210.000             (If you got the studentenwohnheim)
• Estimate of food costs per month : approximatel 55 € or it's just around IDR 715.000  
• The monthly Accommodation fee : about 70 € or it's about IDR 910.000                                          (I bought the monatskarte) 
• The tuitution fee a month (no Semester Ticket) : circa 35 €  or it's about IDR 455.000          (Because I taked the German course, but I got an Information from my friend that if you study there, you just paid about 240 € inclusive Berlin's Semester ticket per semester )
• Insurance expense : circa 45 € or it's about IDR 585.000
• Other monthly expenses : circa IDR 20 € or it's about IDR 390.000
• Total standard cost of living monthly as a student of German course at hartnack : about 395 € and it's about IDR 5.135.000
• Total standard cost of living monthly as a student : about 330 € and it's about IDR 4.290.000

Side Jobs in Germany

How beautiful day is today, finally the sunshine come over my window with its warm feeling upon my skin.
It's making my day in spirit of the summer. And loosing to the running time I am momentarily going to work.
Fortunately the workplace is not so far away for me to go there. Therefore, in this little while I will use my time useful to write about my experiences of how to search a side job in Germany, What documents should be prepared on its, and which Deutschland Bundesländer enable to provide the more occasion to working. .

At first, I beginn with the point of which Deutschland Bundesländer are better to get the more occasion to working for student during the Studienkolleg/Bachelor Programm.
according to my previously experiences, I am voting to Badenwüttenberg Bundesland, There I see so much more available sidejobs.
According to my experiences when I was in Berlin, in Köthen-Anhalt, in Leipzig,in Saarbrücken, in Kaiserslautern, and finally in Bremen.

Berlin was very dominated the side jobs in touristment area. for examples : for student I usually saw mostly students work in Hotel services, in film show, and in Restaurants.
and I was once in my life working at the student restaurant there, and then I try to apply as a small actor/figurant in a film show because of recommended infos from my friend in Berlin.
The wage was surely very expectated with the easily tasks. I just redid  two until five movements on an ongoing basis within a day. Many bonuses that I got for. and the one that I liked it is that I worked not very hard, the chef just feed us with foods in restaurantly standard. and we might eat several times. there all foods you can eat.
For that reason that's why I love Working at film industry.

The next city after Berlin I lived was Köthen where is the small town in East-Germany. Here there were many indonesian students and students from china that they study here to prepare to attend to the Germany Universities.
But this town was very bad to find side jobs. many student usually search the side job oustside this city like they were moving to the west Germany to find the side jobs.
Despite the living cost is very cheaper than another city in Germany. my rent amounted as per month about 165 Euro. So Don't worry about your expenditure there. Your money will be safe.

Obstacles of studying in Germany

Now, on 4 April that means I will have been entering the 4th Semester in my Bachelor programm and officially my bachelor's programm will be ended in 7th Semester. But it might be late a years cause I should take my time not only just for studying but also I worked and I also will spending my time to do my internship later.
Studying abroad actually is not easier than you think, and an age can not be the measuring instrument to  judge a student looks like a fool student not that he/she was a lazy student but it is as they should maybe do something more advantageous or important for what they wanted and prioritized beforehand
.
Now I wanna share my experiences and my point of view as asian student who we have to follow the regulations of Germany government for non EU-Student which it is more complicated and it will take our brain to think smart in short time.

For examples of some classically Obstacles of studying in Germany   :
on my student visa was declared that
"Gilt nur zur Durchführung eines Studiums im Fach Betriebswirtschaft (Bachelor) an der Hochschule Bremen. Beschäftigung bis zu 90 Tagen oder 180 halben Tagen im Jahr sowie Ausübung studentischer Nebentätigkeit erlaubt."

this paragraph means de facto prescriptive that
we just get the work permitting to 90 days or an 180 half days in a year which a workday usually is about 8-10 work hours and an half workday is usually 3-5 hours a day, but it depends on our chefs. (e.g : I was making my owned note of my workdays in a month about 20 workdays but my chef said to me that I just worked about 12 workdays in that month, so it would be my profit because I still have more workdays in a year more than I thought beforehand.).
I actually make a note to antizipate from over 90 workdays.And if we worked over the 90 days, it will be threating our study in Germany,we will get penalty from foreigners' registration office because what we have done in Germany, all of datebase have been recorded by the foreigners' registration office and the unexpectived rumors that I read on internet media that we can be exmatriculated from our campus because of doing illegitimacy .:(

The Uniquenesses of Indonesia

Last Month, it's exactly on 07.02.2012 was being my 3'rd years in Germany where I've already gotten so much lessons in life how to survive here. And absolutely I'm proud to be a different person who come from indonesia. :)

Since I live here there were many people who I met beforehand asking about where / What is Indonesia ? and how beautiful is it ?.

They just knowed Bali very well but not Indonesia but actually the case is Bali is also the part of indonesia.

And all these questions are always being the difficult questions to me to give them the completed answer about., whereas I also don't know much more about the Culture-Wealthness of another provinces of Indonesia. and Anotherside I have fear to give them the unbonafited answers.

Hence I try to search some articles about my country in Internet which can help me perhaps to know a little bit about my country, and can help me explaining those people who will attack me with many questions someday . yeahh it would be not complete but it would be better if I know my country a little bit well than I don't know everythings about. ;)

Because of that I just wanna write some uniquenesses of Indonesia here.

Not much and not so completely but it would be enough to tell people who will be asking me.

So, Indonesia,

officially the Republic of Indonesia ,

it is a country in Southeast Asia and Oceania. 

Indonesia has more than 17,500 islands. 

It has 33 provinces with over 238 million people,

and is the world's fourth most populous country. 

Indonesia is a republic, with an elected legislature and president. 

The nation's capital city is Jakarta. 

The country shares land borders with Papua New Guinea, East Timor, and Malaysia. Other neighboring countries include Singapore, Philippines, Australia, and the Indian territory of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.

From Biggesse with the spirit of 2012.

5 days and 4 awesome nights have already been passed at Biggesse - NRW - Germany.
 I was celebrating my whole new year and christmas holiday there with a couple of new people and my old friends.
Last year was being the great year of me when I was living in Germany.
I got so many experiences, friends, new adventures, so much challangings, and so on.

It's started in January 2011 where I got the best present that was being a student at University of applied sciences in Bremen - Germany. there I got many german friendly friends and I got to know so much good indonesia friends.

 And then in February I had succeeded to pass all exams of the first semester with good scores of 5 lectures on the Business of Administration major. from there I was getting started to know how the way a foreign students who want to pass their exams with good scores I remembered that it's needed to being a person who has attitude discipline, On time, focus on target, and then the person who have a well-regulated behavior.

In march, here I learned how to get my first own annual taxation as a student in Germany. Although my proposals have removed by finanzamt because there were still a couple documents should be completed. but After I got refusal of finanzamt for 3 times of income tax application,in the 4th application I was very happy that my application could be accepted by finanzamt, and then they said to waiting around 1 until 2 months.
