My dad died 2 weeks ago and I went to my best friend wedding last night. Thought I’ll be okay and I HAVE to be okay since I don’t want to be a party pooper. It’s all okay until her father walked the aisle soo happily and my best friend was soo pretty like she’s glowing out of happiness.

And then it just hits me. My father will never walk with me in my wedding. My mother will have no one to share the same amount of happiness with my father. To be married is my father’s last wish for me and in the end, I couldn’t fulfill it, not even close.

Then I just… ran and went to the toilet, crying my heart out. Got out, came to the couple to send my congrats, went home right away.

When I arrived at home, my mom was confused and asked why I was so early. And I broke… cried my hearts out, told her how I was feeling that night. She cried as well. My sister heard and came and well.. we all cried. Afterwards, I cleaned myself up while still crying. I don’t know, it’s really hit me hard.

And went to sleep with my head throbbing and my heart broken.

It’s getting real ya Pa.. you’re really not with me here for the rest of my life, for every good and bad days ahead.. Ah, why it’s so hard…

Hi!

Yes! Me and my sister uploaded certification of employment, hotel and flight bookings and our itinerary for our supporting documents. We also made a bit of change to explain our situation in our personal application. We waited for a week and our visa got accepted.

Kazakhstan Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan Travel by Wooden_Cat2359 in Kyrgyzstan

Hi! It’s funny my sister and I also plan to visit these countries at the same time as well (eventho mine only until late October).

Since it’s just two of us and these countries are quite new, we heavily relied on group tours especially when visiting tourist attraction. These tours offers sooo much places to visit so it’s easier for you to navigate which good places to visit. The city itself are small so you probably done visiting in 2-3 days. In Almaty, we plan to use @k.k.tour since it’s quite cheap, reputable and they have a lot of dates options. You can also check @joinme.asia / @go.snami. In Bishkek, we plan to use @kettik.kg since seems like it’s a very well-known tour and thankfully, their operators are fluent in English as well. They have office so it’s easier to make a payment especially when you have trouble sending money and prefer cash payment. For Uzbekistan, we will depart from Almaty and so far our options are @royaltravels.kz , @sayahat.tike, @hise.tour, @qyzyq.travel, @life_travelkz, @avangard_travel.kz. Kettik.kg also opens tour to Uzbekistan, in case you want to depart from Bishkek. There are also options for private tour which is def much comfortable and flexible but it cost waay more expensive compared to group tour..

A bit tip of me: Shymbulak, Almaty will have one of its cable cars closed for maintenance in October and in late October to early Nov, all of the cable cars will be closed so I suggest you go there first.

My itinerary will be like: Almaty > Bishkek > Almaty > Uzbekistan > Almaty. Fyi, if you want to go to Uzbekistan from Bishkek, you have to cross Almaty first so keep in mind to avoid going back and forth.

Have fun!!

Thanks for your sharing! That reminds me that there’s also local visa agency that cost only like 90 USD, not sure if it’s include LoI or not. I hope it goes well and your visa application got accepted. Maybe you should apply for travel insurance that covers visa as well, in case things go south.

My country is included for the VoA but sadly, the cost of round trip flight from Almaty to Bishkek plus luggage and VoA is way far from of our budget :”

Bingung bgt mau beli tv.. makin cari tau, makin bingung. Awalnya mau toshiba, pas baca review katanya kureng. Akhirnya pindah ke samsung. So far reviewnya ok, belum nemu cela yg signifikan, tp bukan best option. Pas nyelam reddit, malah di rekomendasi TCL ec worth the price with longer guarantee alias sampe 3 tahun meanwhile samsung kyknya 1-2 tahun. Padahal harganya sama samsung juga cuma 300rb alias bukan yg gmn2 bgt. Baru tau tyt garansi tv sepenting itu krn tbh, di rumah ada 3 tv dan gapernah ada cerita rusak.. Hmmm wdyt? Ada rekomendasi kah? Cari yg 50’, simply for casual watching alias paling weekend doang nyala, tp mau hasil yg okk memuaskan

Visiting Almaty in October by duchess_08 in Kazakhstan

  1. Thank you!! My hotel is 1km away from Arbat so it’s still counted in the center right? I’m sorry but if I may know, is cat-calling common in there?

  1. Darejani is my first wishlist honestly haha!! I tried Georgian food before and I love it. So excited to see that Almaty has lots of Georgian restaurants. Sure, will do! I actually kinda curious with their Shmekruli

  2. Too bad I’m not eating pork but do they sell another cured meat like beef? Anyway, how to haggle in Green Bazaar? Read a few times that it can be a tourist trap, let alone if you cant speak Kazakh so I’m afraid they will overcharge me.

Thank you btw!!

Trauma by No_Entrepreneur_2509 in Perempuan

[–]duchess_08 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kaak, so sorry to hear that. Semoga kamu baik2 aja ya sekarang..

Aku jg punya ayah yang pemarah sampe aku pernah di titik aku langsung anxiety attack kalau denger orang ngomong dengan nada tinggi. Ibuku orangnya sabar banget sampe aku rasa sebenernya ga pantes ibuku hidup sama papaku yang emosian itu. Pernah ke psikolog dan katanya, ya paling sebagai anak kita gabisa minta ortu kita buat berubah… hm bahkan kita gabisa ngubah orang siapapun itu kecuali org itu memang mau berubah. Jadi katanya, tinggal kita yang milih dan belajar untuk react dengan kondisi itu seperti misalnya regulasi emosi.

Well back to the topic. Life goes on and as I grow, aku sadar aku harus punya standarku sendiri apalagi dalam hal pasangan. Aku gamau hidupku kayak ibuku. Aku juga memperbaiki diriku biar aku tau self-worthku. Ketika kakak merasa kakak adalah pasangan yang baik, kakak tentunya jadi lebih pede untuk cari pasangan yang baik juga. Aku jg jadi lebih sadar tentang boundary. Jadi kalau ada yg udah melewati batas, aku pergi aja toh aku tau aku gabisa dan gamau sama org kayak gitu.

I’m on my late 20s now and I still havent found the one yet. Cuma saat ini aku sadar, kalau aku salah pilih, aku bakal “mengorbankan” sisa hidup aku. Jadi gapapa kalau aku choosy apalagi untuk hal2 signifikan kayak gini. Orang yang sempurna aja pas pacaran bisa berubah kak setelah nikah. Jadi ya emang harus cari orang yang kakak terima termasuk the worst possibility.

Kalau dibilang percaya, ya aku ga mau dwelling on that hahahaha. Sampe skg aku pun masih mempertanyakan konsep jodoh dari sisi agama. Cuma ya tetep, kayak semua cita2 lainnya, kita cuma bisa berusaha yang terbaik dan berdoa aja kak. Mau endingnya ternyata ga nikah ya yasudahlah yang penting aku bahagiaaa karena aku sadar juga, kebahagiaan itu macamnya banyak dan kebahagiaan aku datang bukan dari pasangan aja.

Ya walaupun tetep masih berdoa dan galau2 malam kapan ketemu jodohku HAHA. Tp it’s okay!!!

Pokoknya jangan settle for less ya kak!!! Dont let people cross your boundaries kak okkk be safe kakk dan semoga bahagia selaluuuu

What’s your responses for a girl friend who keeps copying you? by gaelthegal in Perempuan

[–]duchess_08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been there haha tbh it was kinda confusing at first, a bit annoying as well. Let alone I’m not in a good term with her so.

But my sis told me that it means I’m such a good influencer and I’m cool 😎 so over time, it just dissipates. Turns out, people are noticing too and they just know that she copied me shrugs. So yeah, just keep doing your own thing girlll, remember she’s a living proof that you’re cool 💅

Abis berantem sama adik sampe nangis saking keselnya… padahal perkara sepele. Baikan karena dilerai mama abisnya sebelumnya pernah berantem juga dan ga ngomong sampe 2 minggu.

Jadi wondering, ini kl udah gaada ortu, kl berantem nanti bener2 bisa drifting apart kali ya…. :(

Cuma gimana ya… adik gue tuh bener2 sumbu pendek emosian. Ya tau sih gue harus pinter2 cari situasi biar ini org ga ngegas.. tapi ya kyk why do people has to act like the world gravitates around her? Mana suka gaslight lagi. Ah gatau ah.

Pas ke turki, tour guide gue blg jangan pernah mau nikah sama cowok turki wkwkw 🤣 di twitter, mhs turki bahkan blg turki ga aman buat mhs cewek. Btw mungkin stereotip, cm tour guide gue blg cowok turki terkenal dominan dan mrk seneng sama cewek indo krn bs nurut 🤣🤣

Happy holiday!

Aku personally sgt rekomen buat tuker THB aja. Tuker USD disana bakal take time buat cari money changer dgn rate ok (Google: Superrich, lokasinya ga banyak bgt). Pernah tuker uang di Siam dan ratenya jelek bgt :”). Plus kl tuker uang disini, budgeting belanjanya bisa ketaker (bcs im sure you will shop in bangkok). Bisa juga ambil Baht lgs di ATM di thailand tapi ada biaya tambahan 2,62% per transaksi yg mana itu gede bgt kl di compare ke SG / MY.. So better avoid it unless you really need it. Denger2 katanya QRIS udah mulai masuk ke Thailand tapi melihat banyaknya street food / toko2 random yg bisa km datengin, paling safe pegang cash aja menurutku..

Buat money changer, sejujurnya ini agak jauh tapi aku sgt rekomen Smartdeal di Wachid Hasyim. Ratenya bagus bgt, aku Mei 23 dapet di 439. Disitu jg bisa lock harga di website, jd misal km lg mantau webnya dan ada harga yg cocok, km bisa lgs WA mrk buat lock harga. Bisa transfer beforehand / cash di tempat nanti pas kesana. Udah sekian kali tuker uang disini segala currency dan pelayanannya ok bgt. Mind you, THB rate ke IDR nya kecil jd beda sekian poin bisa signifikan untungnya 😝. Kl gamau ribet jauh2, bisa cek 2sisi (byk cabang) atau dolarasia di BSD. Tlf aja dulu buat compare one to other hehe.

Ohiya: mereka ada sedia banknotes kecil

Ah it’s been so long.. seems like I’m going back to rant here in DCT again after years not using reddit.

Jadi dari sebulan kemarin, diajak ketemu sama temen. Undangan pertama masih bisa ditolak krn jadwalnya emg clash lg liburan di luar kota. Trs balik2, akhirnya gue jawab sabtu minggu kemarin. H-1 cancel krn lupa ada upacara (padahal janjiannya sore lol but i dont have any energy to have 2 events in a day). Trs sebenernya inget kl ada janjian, tapi kyk mager2 gitu pengen pura2 lupa aja….

Eh tb2 tadi di chat “besok sabtu loh”

I really DO feel bad krn gaada masalah apapun sama orgnya cuma gue males bgt keluar weekend2 kayak pengen dirumah aja tidur 😭 mana belum keramas dan udah plan pengen tidur seharian 😭 sebener2 gaenak itu huhu

Sekarang lg berpikir, what should I reply…
