ReFIT Club Gym Simpang Lima Semarang

Hello, Maders! In July, I joined for being a member of ReFIT Club Gym for a month. The normal price should have been 300k but I got Ramadhan promotion, so it’s only 195k. I did this because I wanted to decrease fat. In fact, my weight gained one kilo in the end of the month. Hahahaha. It failed because I didn’t control my food. Well, I was proudly tortured when I was in 48kgs, but my life feels happier when I’m in 50kgs.

There are six available classes for the members such as yoga, ReAction, ReCon, zumba, pilates, and TRX. It’s up to you if you want to join those classes or not, but it’s scheduled. Personally, I love yoga because it teaches how to breath and communicate with our body.

Usually I joined a class starting at 7 AM, then I ran using a treadmill, and finally I took a bath. The women’s shower and locker are good enough, located in the third floor. 

The first floor is for registration and entering, the second floor is where treadmills and other sport stuff available with the men’s shower and locker, the third floor is the room of fitness classes next to the women’s shower and locker. The fourth floor is the office of ReFIT and honestly I haven’t gone there (forbidden, I guess).

Making friends is another activity I did there. My other mates were friendly. They’re mostly Chinese descendants. My closer friend, Niken, was four years younger than me, she’s a dentist wanna be, studying at Gadjah Mada University.

I’d love to join ReFIT again someday when I have school holiday because I can’t leave my school activity. For now, I’m still doing yoga but it’s in KWU Unnes, twice a week with different instructors. My mom joined me.

Okay, that’s all for today. One thing you should know is working out makes us healthy, not only burning fat. Have a good time!

The Incredibles 2

Hey, Maders! Have you watched The Incredibles 2? I like the first movie, so I decided to watch the sequel. There were four of us; Rifqi, Ruli, Shafa, and me. We watched it at Transmart because it’s the cheapest price in town.

Shafa and I went to Rifqi Ruli’s house by motorcycle. We ate breakfast together and talked at the dining room. After Ruli took a bath, we went to Transmart. I planned to choose the shortest way but Shafa showed us the wrong direction. She apologized and finally we continued our journey.

We arrived at Transmart and walked to XXI. The tickets for watching the movie at 12pm were sold out, so we got the 2.30pm tickets.

Spending much time, we fooled around at Trans Studio mini on the third floor. We bought a playing card. The card cost us 200k, each of us paid 50k for it. The first game we tried was Roller Coaster.

Oh, I felt dizzy, scared, and happy at the same time. Next, Shafa and I danced with Korean songs while Rifqi and Ruli were playing Casino to get more game tickets. In the end, those tickets were changed with stickers and dolphin doll.

Alright, back to the topic. In my opinion, The Incredibles 2 is really good. It has moral values; family is the most important, multitasking is not easy, betrayal in trust cannot be avoided. Here, Jack Jack (the baby of Incredible family) shows his magnificent powers. He’s a really cute baby boy. This movie belongs to action, adventures, and comedy genre.

FYI, there is another movie about bakpao before The Incredibles 2 was being played on screen. We wondered what it was. The intro movie told about a magical bakpao made by a Chinese woman. The bakpao turned into a living bakpao boy. She took care of him with love. When the bakpao boy grew up, he became naughty and abandoned his mom.

Everyone thought they were wrong in buying the tickets of The Incredibles 2 because of this bakpao movie. We didn’t expect any of this. But I have to say that the bakpao movie was touching and wonderful. I mocked Rifqi that his hair looks exactly like the bakpao boy’s. His hair is just like Jack Jack but Rifqi is not bald anyway. Hahaha.

As long as watching The Incredibles 2, I’m sure you’ll laugh. Its funny moments really entertain us. It’s a family movie, so anyone can watch it. Try to guess the villain in the beginning if you can. It’s always interesting to discuss the movie after watching it. I strongly suggest this movie to you all. Currently I’m waiting for Hotel Transylvania 3. Well, that’s it. Happy watching, Maders!

Islamic Fest 2018 Idul Fitri

Hi, Maders! If you’re Muslim, how’s your Islamic Fest? I believe other religions can enjoy this moment too. We’re having long holiday and it’s time to gather with the whole family. My school gave me food parcel and some money. Thanks, Aska!

After fasting for a month, finally we met Idul Fitri in this year. I was absent for five days from fasting because of my period. It’s my destiny as a woman, so that’s fine. Actually my dad was absent for two days because he got diarrhea. My mom was full, not absent at all.

Born as a Muslim, I take Islam as my religion. Islam teaches me to be a better person. I realize I’m not perfect because I do unintentionally bad things everyday. Islam is peaceful and the best faith I’ve ever known.

In making friends, I don’t put religion as the main consideration. I can be friends with anyone, any religion. Faith is something personal and we can’t force someone to have the same perspective like us. Apart from religion, we’re just the same, we’re human waiting for death. As long as we live, we must do good things to other people, including other creatures.

My house has small garden around it. There are palm trees, aloevera, orchids, etc. I water my plants almost everyday because I know someday I’ll be buried in the ground. If I’m being nice with those plants, perhaps I won’t get any grave torture. Amin!

Every single thing about how to live well has been explained in the holy Al-Quran. Muslims read Quran with Arabian language in order to obtain clues of life and rewards from Allah, my God. Those rewards will be really useful for the After Life.

There are several lives we need to be in, such as our mother’s womb, earth, grave, judgment day, and heaven/hell. Now we’re living on earth, waiting death to be in the grave. Someday there will be judgment day and we must go to heaven or hell depending our behaviors as long as we live on earth.

In Islam, it is clear that this world is transitory. We need to wait for the After Life to be immortal, heaven/hell. In the end, we will meet God, our creator. Thus, the purpose of life is obvious. I’m no longer confused of why humans live in this world.

Islam doesn’t teach people to kill others. Terrorists? No! They do it by the name of Islam, wrong! Muslims ARE NOT ALLOWED to kill anyone. It’s okay to live together with people having various religions. I will not kill any of them. It’s very silly to be a terrorist. Thanks for reading, Maders!

Drum Set

Hey, Maders! Can you play drum? I’m crazy about drum right now. I’ve learned to play piano and violin and I think it’s not enough. I wanna try other instruments. Well, I can’t master all of them but at least I can play them a little bit.

The very first time I hit drum, I felt so clumsy. I had no idea about the rhythm and how to play it. A week ago, I played drum better with my friends, Dandy and his girlfriend. We were like having music band. I chose the nearest studio downtown. He agreed and we met up there.

The songs we played were Linkin Park – New Divide and The Chainsmokers – Closer. I uploaded the first song to my Instagram account because it seemed better than the second song. Dandy became the bassist, me as drummer, and his girlfriend recorded the video. Actually she’s a vocalist as well.

I don’t have drum set yet at home, but I can enjoy playing drum at school. The key is not to be shy to walk through the music room and had a permission. Yeah, I’m a confident person. Don’t take too much negative comments from people because this is your life, not theirs!

Compared with other music instruments, I haven’t found music sheet for playing drum. Once I asked my music teacher about this, she said the drum used rhythm to play. If it is piano, there are a lot of music sheets online. For violin, it’s almost the same with piano but you only play the melody.

Anyway, I’m writing this blog in the middle of my fasting. Three days more and I will meet Idul Fitri. Silaturahim! The best thing about it is the food. Hahaha. I can eat as much as I want. Well, Maders, that’s all for today. Thanks for reading! Bye!
