Beat The Fear!

Hi.. Hi..
As my word in the previous post...
now i'm gonna share my slide experience..

Yesterday, my friends and i went to FX Sudirman, that replace Sudirman palace.

I've arrived there for around 13.30 then i directly meet my friends...
Actually we were agree to meet there at 11.00 but because i'd an assignment to do.. so i have finished it first, before i have a fun time..

After met them (Yonis, Alfons, Recca, Adrian, Evelyn, Jesicca, Andrew, Lindy, and Linsy) we walked together...
i look that the place was so fancy and interesting....
you won't meet any blank white wall there... it must be something made or done with the wall..
They play with art, sculpture, acrylics, and paints...

it made from bottles

in front of the "Dream" wall

Our main purpose gather there is to see each other and tried the ATMOSFEAR!!

I believe most of you already know what is that...
Yes!! it is a long, high, and challenging slider inside a mall...

closer look

But before we tried it we have to buy something at there with minimum purchase Rp 1,-

than we have to change the receipt at the counter..... But! we have to queue in long line...
luckily i didn't have to get through that, because my friend had done it before i've arrived.. hahahahaha... Thanks to all of you ma friends!!

We change the receipt with a chance.. guessing eight cards to get the atmosfear ticket...
Mmmmm.. i wonder that some of the smart kids will guess it in a glance... hahahaha..
(some people understand why those kids can lah..... ^ ^)

After we got 10 tickets... we have to go to the 7th floor to slide....
then....... we have to queue again in a looooooooonggggg line..... before we wait for a long time...

Alfons told us that the person who are on duty at it, will have a break in 15 min. and the slider will be open in one hour a head...

So we decided to have a lunch first at Green pepper... its kinda foodcourt there.
Most of us eat chicken noodles with mushroom and meat balls..
after eat we went back to the 7 th floor... and we find that the queue is longer than before... hahahaha....

a long long way to go...

We wait there for more than an hour.... we do chit chat, jokes, visualization to jessica and evelyn
^ ^ and chewing a gum to kill the time...

Honestly i was so scared when we got our turn to go.... so nervous... aaaarrghhh!! , but i changed my mindset quickly... i talked to my mind that it just a common slider... it save... its gonna be so fun...

Then we went to the area where we have to use a helmet, and other guard thing...
at the mouth of it we have to get into a kind of palstic sack then we pushed and......
whoooozzzz...... we slide so fast untill my helmet wanna rid off...

Finally i've beat Atmosfear!!

Then we got back to the 7th floor to get our belongings, take photographs in front of the 1001 board on the first floor.

fearless board

Tired of waiting and playing we got into Starbuck to have a cup of coffe and frape.... Then one by one went back home... first Andrew, then Adrian, Jessica and Evelyn, Younish, Lindy and Linsy, then Alfons, Recca and i...

chit chat at Starbuck

Ah.. what a fun day!



Warmly Regards,

The highlights:
- Beat your fear and feel the relief...
- Be patient and you'll get your happiness...

Friendship

Hi friends,

Today i have my leadership class in the morning, we have to presentate a topic that is called plagiarism. After we do our presentation, there is a guy ask my opinion
"what if your friend suspect you stealing his/her idea, how we handle it"

Actually this question remind me to something that had happend in the past. When there is a friend of mine (but i can't tell her name lah..) suspect me stealing her idea.
Actually i never steal her idea... we just make a same look of sth, but after that, i decided to change it and never ever use that design... (ever!). But that thing created misunderstanding situation and make a distance in our relationship.

I've tried so many times to explain this problem to her. But she never give me a chance to talk 'eye to eye'.
I never blame her because of that. I know that she also have her own big problem at that time, and i think, it wouldn't be so wise if i force her. So i let her go, learn from it, and go on with our own life.

Honestly, it was hard for me to let her go (for a couple of week) i feel rejected for so many times by her. So i decided to read a great book, that Peter gave to me.

" The Joys and Pain of Growing up" by Peter lau
(my beloved STHC Trainer)

that book give me streght and light my day. It says that rejection is a part of our life, everbody will experience it. But the important things is how deal and handle it. Peter says in his book that
"If you reject yourself, you want be able to believe in yourself and that will stunt your progress in life"

That word really empowering me to get out from my that situation, and unconfident.
It also makes me looks more clearly about what a word,
its better to become a wise friend rather than a 'good' friend.

A 'good' friend might talk a good things in front,but bad things behind. Then leave you. But

A wise friend will tell you the truth (even it might be painful), help you to get out from your problem and growth together.

So, answering the previous question (on the top of the page)
First thing first.
1. Listen! why your friend suspect you. After she/he finish...
2. Then explain the truth about the problem, say sorry if you're wrong.
3. Tell your friend how you feel about it.
4. Ask your friend his/her expectation for the future, then tell yours...
5. Say sorry and forgive each other lah...

Hope this blog help you guys... ^ ^

Warmly regards,

The Highlight:
- Be A wise friend is much better than A 'Good' friend.

- Peter's book is one of the best book for you to read! recommended! =)
