My name is Rininta. But since I was a baby, everyone is calling me Riri. My uncle gave me the name because he think Rininta is too long. Indonesian could easily spells Riri and it sounds right. As for foreigner, the it changed into "WiWi" and I kinda not like it. So here I tell me to call me Rininta. Most people don't argue, but some are trying to made their own shorter version of my name. "Can I call you Rini?" Okay. Some people do that in Indonesia. "Can I call you Rina?" Hmm. That's new. It's actually my mother's name. Still interesting. Annnnddddddd today! "Can I call you Riri?" "Wow, my name is actually Riri!" I got excited. "What?" He said. "I mean, my nickname is actually Riri. Everyone's in Indonesia call me that way" "Riri as in RiRi Rihanna?" Uh. Please. Not again. "Yes. RiRi. Just like Rihanna" 😒 "But sawrryy. I did it first. W

Surround yourself with people who lift you up. Part of self-love is having a higher standard for your inner circle Having a higher standard for your inner circle. Have you ever thought what this sentence is trying to convey? There are many ways to gain friends. School, work, course, organization, club, neighborhood or many other circumstances that makes us meet a new people. Naturally we will be grouped with someone who has same interest or sometimes similar characteristic with us. Then, do they instantly paved a way to your inner circle list? Perhaps yes. Why not? Grew closer, understand each other characters more and start to caring and cherishing all the time that passed while together. Nothing wrong with that. But. I do see a little problem. People starting to be trapped into a 'friendship' zone where we we think we have responsibility to put them in our inner circle. We are the one who has the control to decide our own inner circle! We don't

Just in my first week I already attend 3 get together session with my colleagues. It might seems a little bit overwhelming, but as a single woman in the city get together definitely one of the way to investing (not killing) time.  All three outings were different. First one is only 6 of us with mostly Japanese and one Canadian who can speak Japanese. I feel like a burden because of me there they couldn't speak freely, but still they were really nice and fun. They made me want to learn Japanese and re-watch Itazura Na Kiss (Love in Tokyo version) and fangirling Yuki Furukawa all over again😍😍 It was really cute when we order drink at the Bar, one of the Senior asked me "What you want to drink, you're not drinking Alcohol right?" While screening over the non-alcohol drink list "I want green juice?" and He said "Juse?" with Japanese pronunciation and shock face. It was a fun experience. Ordering juice in my first English Bar ex

You know, in Indonesia  we can find Mosque and Musholla very easy. We can find it in the corner of the street, in the mall, school, office, basically everywhere. When I first preparing my office relocation, one thought came up in my mind. Where am I gonna pray? I asked my friend who is assigned in Singapore, she said she has to pray in Nursery room. I was like, WHAT? Even in Singapore where there are a lot of Malay, Indian and even Indonesian they don't provide small little corner to pray??? I cannot dare to think about London where it is thousand miles away from Muslim majority country. Without any expectation I asked HR in my first day at London office. "Sorry, but is there any muslim that I can contact here? I want to know where they pray." And she was like. "Oh my God sorry I forget to tell you. We do have prayer room. I'll email you the details." O-KAY. So I'm safe. In the afternoon she emailed me the directory and said sorry to no

I haven't post anything for the past 2 months. It's been a whirlwind months, juggling between back to back holiday, farewell with my close friends and insanely working to achieve all my target list before my departure. Yes. I passed. I passed the requirement process. I am officially living my dream. I am moving to London🇬🇧 Long story short. After the interview with Japanese Managing Director, 2 weeks after that I have to do another interview with the Local Managing Director (Someohow my company has co-director thingy due to some circumstances). I thought the process has done, so I let my guard down. Not that I expect to be interviewed with another MD and this time is British. Honestly I am not really familiar with British pronunciation. Even I cannot understand Harry Potter movie without reading the English subtitles. Nevertheless the sudden announcement made me anxious. The interview went pretty well eventough I think there was something's m
