i still remember

This morning I was going to my bank for internet banking activation. I rode my motorbike in a hurry to anticipate the traffic. Next thing I know, I ran out of my petrol and, damn, it's just 100 meter from the nearby petrol station. When I was about reaching half way to the station, lucky I was, because a man offered me help to push me from behind. At first I hesitated to accept his offer (it's just my alert on mean people in metropolites cities). However, I quickly changed my mind and said, "Yes, please," to him. He was riding his motorbike as well and put his foot on my exhaust. That way, my motorbike could go and reach the station because of him pushing me from behind. I thanked the kind man, who was wearing mask like I was. Though I couldn't see his face, nor he could see mine, I only could say to my heart that he'll be blessed for this small help. This is not I am exaggerating this stuff, I only could tell a little from my experiences being help by others...

Expression. Ya, ini adalah salah satu hal dalam bahasa yang saya nikmati. Ketika bisa memahami expression dari bahasa lain, saya merasa itu kebanggaan tersendiri. Karena kita pada akhirnya akan memakai lebih banyak expressions daripada bahasa formal. Kalau dibalik, kita pasti tetap merasa aneh mendengar orang luar berbicara bahasa Indonesia baku kepada kita. Dari sini saya begitu tergila-gila mengumpulkan dan mencoba mengerti expression dalam bahasa Inggris. Understanding formal way of speaking foreign languages gives you the basic things of conversation but getting to know the language expressions is to mingle with them in a deeper way, I reckon. Ini adalah expressions yang saya kumpulkan dan pasti akan bertambah lagi. Tetapi lebih penting adalah praktik langsung dengan para native speakers. Cheers! Go for it. I'm at wit's end. To avoid at all cost. It drive me nuts. Juggling many things. Piss off! You seem a little wigged out. She has call...
