Quotes from K-Drama Hwang Jini (황진이; 黃眞伊) (2006)

Korean drama Hwang Jini (황진이; 黃眞伊) aired in 2006 is about a life of Hwangjini, the most well-known gisaeng in Korean history during the 16th century, a gifted artist who was destined to struggle for gender equality and who would not yield to prejudice.

- Walk politely. You must walk like butterfly on a flower. Your walk must give off a scent. 

- Do you know what the most important thing for gisaeng is? 

Is it wine?  No. 

Is it artistic talent? Maybe. 

Is it love? What do you know about love? For a gisaeng, wine, talent, and love are necessary but not important. Enduring pain is the most important thing for a gisaeng. 

Only those who can endure pain and can become oblivious to it, deserve to be called a true gisaeng and a true artist.

Ngikutin Sanremo 2022 dan Eurovision 2022

Baru kepikiran nulis ini setelah setahun acara Sanremo 2022 dan hampir setahun acara Eurovision 2022. Ngga ada salahnya juga sih, haha. I was so excited last year karena ngikutin acara Sanremo dan Eurovision mulai dari pengumuman nominasi dan grand final. Sekilas di tahun 2022 pun aku merasa jadi perlu menjelajah lebih jauh belajar tentang musik di tiap negara, haha. Memang aku suka mengeksplorasi musik-musik baru, belajar musik dari tiap negara kedengarannya menyenangkan.

Gimana sih kok bisa sampe bersemangat banget ngikutin kedua acara itu? Aku masih ingat kenapanya.

"My quality of life is enhanced by..." the support and love from my family and friends, and I have feelings of well-being.

Support is an important thing. Support can be the applied true care of anyone to help, to love, to understand and to feel the same. But sometimes there is support meant nothing but it looks so real and it can be powerful booster for someone who needs a little support.

I think I would go for diagnosis to delay the worse symptoms and prepare for the mind and soul to be calm, patient, relax, blessed, hope for the good life still accompanying  and prolong the age

"The neurons of my nervous system allow me to..."

Summary of Second Nature: A Gardener's Education by Michael Pollan

Michael Pollan's book, "Second Nature: A Gardener's Education," is a compelling account of the author's experience with gardening and its significance in the context of human interaction with the natural world. In this book, Pollan delves into the philosophical, ecological, and social aspects of gardening and shows how this activity can serve as a powerful means of reconnecting with the natural world and promoting environmental sustainability.

The book is divided into four parts, each of which addresses a different aspect of gardening. In the first part, titled "The Garden in the Machine," Pollan explores the relationship between human beings and nature in the modern world. He argues that contemporary society has become alienated from the natural world, and that the garden can serve as a powerful means of reconnecting with the environment. Pollan also discusses the history of gardening and how it has evolved over time, from the first human settlements to contemporary suburban landscapes.
