Wake Up and Smell The Coffee

The Cranberries has become one of my favorite rock bands since I was in a junior high school. I love the songs, the lyrics, and its harmony. Although the band widely associated with alternative rock, the music genre also incorporates indie pop, post-punk, Irish folk, and pop rock. I'm really passionate about music. For me, they are just such great musicians. The fifth album "Wake up and Smell the Coffee" always burns my spirit which gives a proverb mean "We need to pay attention to what's going on...".

Teaching Our Children about Ramadan

Alhamdulillah, Allah still gives us the opportunity to meet the holy month of Ramadan 1437 H. When a Muslim reaches mature age, he/she should have fast and other ibadah in Ramadan. As parents, we need to train our kids to fast and give them the meaning of Ramadan which the rewards and benefits are very plentiful. I started to introduce my son about Ramadan when he was about 4 years old.

Why Do I Blog?

Dear all my Blogger friends in Indonesia, Happy National Blogger Day! National Blogger Day was proclaimed on October, 27, 2007 by the Minister of Communication and Information Technology at the first national blogger party ( Pesta Blogger ) in Jakarta. It's the biggest blogger gathering around the country, attended by 500 bloggers. Actually, the first Pesta Blogger was held one year after I signed up and joined blogging platform. Starting My First Blog I started writing blog 12 years ago. Some people would say "COOL! Awesome! or Great!", but I think this is not something that determines or becomes a measure that I am a reliable blogger. I'm not that good. I always try my best. What I realize, there are so many young and new bloggers that have better writing skills, even their blogs are better than mine. Whereas, I still use the old template, but I love it so much.
