Unexpected Umbul Ponggok

Jogja? Yap, jogja is the special city in Central Java. Believe it or not there are a lot of stranger came to holiday here because Jogja have many destinations that you should visit. For shopping? Yap.. you can get it almost at every street,  malioboro? Yaa.. you know about it, but how about traveling ? Don’t worry, Jogja also serve amazing place for traveling and the place that was famous among a teenagers now is Umbul Ponggok, Klaten. Do you ever hear that?  Have instagram? You will see picture of Umbul Ponggok there.

It was not my first trip to Jogja, but I thought it can call the exhausting experience. I went to Jogja with my freak-partner by motorcycle from Purwokerto. At that time raining season was on Purwokerto and we were set off in the evening. As you know, along the way we got wetness and awkk! It was so disgusting. Rain and cold wind struck us, it felt like needle stabbing. Just jacket and raincoats that we had, but with him it was like Bollywood movie. Two people who was sing and dancing under the rain. So romantic <3

Next day, we had a plan to visit the place that was famous on Instagram. At 10 pm we were set off and it took almost 30 minutes. In the middle of the journey we got incident, our motorcycle ran over something like nail and the tire leaked. Huft.. Fortunately, the workshop not far from where we were got the incident. Okay, we waited almost 30 minutes and our enthusiastic about that place was shrinking. And added between us never went there before and we were just used Google maps. Continuing the journey and you know? We were lost. Google map was wrong or just I cannot read the map? Hahaha…. We were enjoyed the view, as you know Google still let us got lost in the beautiful view where we cannot saw in the city. 

Nearly two-hour our journey, finally we arrived at Umbul Ponggok. Umbul Ponggok is artificial pool that had a real tear from the mountain. It made like in the sea, there was freshwater fish, stone, freshwater plant, and etc. I’m so excited and cannot wait to swim with freshwater fish. Umbul Ponggok also provides tools such as swimming goggles, buoys, fins and etc. they rent this tools with a cheap price. Swimming with freshwater fish very enjoyable, that was my first experience. Hmm.. I think, I ever swimming in the small waterfall with fish but I cannot interact directly like in Ponggok.

Umbul Ponggok, Klaten

The sun had not as warm as before, time to get out from the pool and took a shower. After that, we were eating in the stall at the edge. Can you guess what I see? I’m so shocked about what happened. Many woman washed clothes alongside the pool. You know what I thought at that time? Hope all fish will be alright, because it was doesn’t make sense. Why they doing that? That I know it was a tourist location, so the local people should keep that place better, right? Okay! No prob. I got out from the pool and I was not there when the woman washed.  

Time showed at 6 am, we prepared to back and used Google Map again. Hope, the current events did not reoccur. Guess what? Oh My God, our lamp motorcycle off. It so poor, we got trouble when we set off until we were back. Drive slowly as long as it can be safely. We were through Klaten city and we decided to take a rest and eat something. After that we back about at 9 am.

That was the day that I can unexpected. How much the incident that I got but it was fun and nice the experience. As you know, with the experience we can learn about who you are and how we get through it. Learn not only with teacher in a school, but experience is the teacher of all things. Get your experience more and enjoy it ! 

Movie Review

YOU ARE THE APPLE OF MY EYE 

You Are the Apple of My Eye is the Chinese movie that take on from semi-autobiography novel by the director Giddens ko as Ko Chin-Teng. This movie tells about five teenage who wants to win hearts of their classmate Shen Chia Yi, played by Michelle Chen. This movie had a comedy and romantic genre, with the background teenage live at the school, home, university, until their growing up together. 

Back to 11 years ago, this story begins in 1994. Shen Chia Yi was an outstanding student, smart, maturity, beautiful and Ko Chin Teng was mischievous and lazy student, they were being a classmate since Junior High School. Ko Chin Teng always made a noisy in the class, one day Chin Teng and his friend doing a masturbating during class. Then, the principal move him and placing in front of Chia Yi. Chia Yi feels uncomfortable with Chin Teng’s act. One day, Chia Yi forgot brought her English textbook, then Chin Teng slips his book to her and tells the teacher he forgot brought his textbook. Then the teacher gave him punishment to carry the chair on as long as the lesson. Chin Teng touched her by his act. Chia Yi encourage Chin Teng to study for practice exam and ask him to stay after school to study with her. After that, Chin Teng’s grades gradually improve and their relationship grows. 

After graduation, they were had a long-distance because of difference university. Chin Teng tried to consoling Chia Yi because she did not finished exam well, she got ill on that day. Chin Teng calls her every night until she feel better. They were going on the ‘first date’ when winter holiday season came. Actually Chin Teng revealed he love Chia Yi, but he fearing she would say “no”, so he decides rather not hearing her answer. If only he knows, Chia Yi has been reply “yes” in the balloon that their flying with. One night, Chin Teng followed the fight night and invites Chian Yi and he hope she would impress about his strength. Yet, she saw Chin Teng just did something childish that injured himself about no reason. They were got quarrel that makes both break up. 

They were no contact after broke up about 2 years. One day, earthquake come and Chin Teng worried about Chian Yi’s situation. He calling Chian Yi and make sure she is okay. They are doing a long conversation, but in fact they are not fated to become a couple. The reason is Chian Yi had been had a couple. 

In 2005, Chian Yi suddenly calls Chin Teng tell him that she is getting married. All of her old friend gather at the wedding. That was the first time that they were gather after a few years and they were change into a deep friendship. Then, when they gather to congratulate to the bride and groom, they joke that they should be able to kiss the bride. The groom says that anyone who wants kiss the bride should kiss him first. Suddenly, Chin Teng grab the groom, kiss him liked he kiss the bride. He got kiss her after that, during their kiss he remembers how he regrets when their fight from years ago and what had happened he apologized for being childish.

No one believes about the end of this movie. Honestly, we can take many messages from this movie. First, never give up with your dreaming, be a sincere and many more. And I like when Chin Teng said "If you really like a girl. It is impossible to see her marry to another guy and still bless them. True love means someone should sneak up and stabs the groom in the back. But I am wrong. In fact, when you really like a girl, you'd be happy for her. When you see her finding her Mr. Right. You will want them to be together. And to live happily ever after."
