cimory on the valley, semarang

15.09.2016
cimory on the valley
Jl Raya Soekarno Hatta Km 30
kabupaten semarang
jawa tengah

Located in Bawen (approximately one hour from semarang), Cimory on the Valley is Cimory’s third outlet. First one is Cimory Mountain View and the second one is Cimory Riverside, both are located in Cisarua area. I’ve been to Cimory Riverside, nice and refreshing.

I also like this one, Cimory on the Valley. It has a restaurant, a small supermarket selling all Cimory’s products, a chocolate shop (chocomory), and a playground.  You can also do a factory visit, but it’s for a minimum of 25 persons.

The place is great for a family day trip from semarang.

Check out the pictures below

bos kecil



huaaaa
minggiiiirr

bos kecil dataang
bos kecil yg bertanduk

semua orang (terutama aku tentunya)
harus minggir dan tunduk

bos kecil minta kita terjun ke jurang..
mari kita terjun ke jurang
bos kecil minta kita makan tanah..
mari kita makan tanah

eh..
emang bos besar kemana ya?
ko’ bos kecil tiba-tiba muncul dan berkuasa?

ternyata bos besar dari dulu hanya sekadar besar saja.. tapi bukan bos..
layaknya boneka milik bos kecil, yang tinggal digerak-gerakkan semau sang bos kecil

lalu, bagimana nasibku?
ikut tunduk?
ikut minggir?

sulit..
karena hati nurani memberontak
dan merasa hina kalau harus tunduk pada sang bos kecil
karena dia bukan bosku
dan dia tidak berhak mengatur-ngatur seenak jidatnya dia
demi kepentingannya dia sendiri

tapi seperti biasa
tak ada yang dapat kuperbuat

aku hanya bisa
berkata kampret saja (seperti biasa)
dan dalam hati saja (seperti biasa)
sambil melirik tajam ke sang bos kecil
tp sang bos kecil tidak akan merasa ada tatapan tajam mengarah padanya
tidak akan ada yang merasa


karena aku tiada..

eling bening - semarang

15.09.2016
eling bening
Jl Kartini Tambakboyo
Ambarawa
085729565656

These days, one instagram post from an unknown is more than enough to make me visit a certain place. This is the case for my visit to Eling Bening.
I think the place is not quite finished when I visited. And the weather was not as sunny as I hope to be. but it's okay, I still managed to enjoy the view.

Semarang Contemporary Art Gallery
Jl. Taman Srigunting No.5-6

This cute little space is located on a small street near the famous Gereja Blenduk on the old town area of Semarang. I'm not really into arts, but the place definitely has interesting pieces to be photographed.

I like this place.

don't belong



............. 

..........u have to prepare your perfect fake face
and u try so hard to wear it whenever u think u need to (which is most of the time)
u take a deep breath
and u wear that face
and u take another deep breath 

..........u try so hard
not to be u
but to be someone else

..........u resent it so much
too much
until one time.. your heart actually aches
and u start to question why

..........your heart aches
u resent it
but u must do it

..........coz u’re a nobody

..........u must say yes to everything
even the most absurd things
even the most stupid things
u must say yes... and obey
coz u’re a nobody

..........and even when u’re done obeying everything
u’ll still be
a nobody


..........well,
once upon a time, I felt that I don’t belong here
coz I don’t like to pretend to be someone that I’m not
coz I don’t like to pretend to feel what I don’t feel
coz I don’t like to smile when I don’t feel like smiling


..........once upon a time, I felt that I don’t belong here

..........10 years and a few months later
..........I still feel 
..........that I don’t belong
