<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://theomnicurious.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/windy-tree-a28647532.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image" id="i-37" alt="Image" src="http://theomnicurious.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/windy-tree-a28647532.jpg?w=487" /></a></p>
<p>The trees are silent,<br />Their anticipation tangible;<br />The await the coming of the night breeze,<br />Their lover from far away.</p>
<p>He brings them exotic fragrances,<br />Tells them stories of lands afar,<br />Of days of adventure, passion and war;<br />And nights of longingness, love and songs.</p>
<p>They await, unmoving,<br />For their lover to come.<br />He loves them all with equal frenzy,<br />And they long for him even more.</p>
<p>The sun has slowly begun to sink,<br />And the horizon is a splash of colors.<br />My sheep are all near the pond,<br />Quenching the day&#8217;s thirst.</p>
<p>I thirst too,but,<br />My thirst is different;<br />A thirst of the heart,<br />That is difficult to quench.</p>
<p>I long for my wings to spread,<br />To take flight and fly away,<br />Like the night breeze,<br />To far off lands and far off dreams.</p>
<p>But there are ties that hold me here,<br />Ties in the form of sheep,<br />And debts and people.<br />It anchors me here, to this barren shore.</p>
<p>The sun is gone leaving an afterglow;<br />The night breeze is soon coming,<br />There is a buzz,<br />As the trees murmur in anticipation,</p>
<p>Its time to head back;<br />I guide my sheep,<br />Along the beaten path,<br />Towards a home that is not home.</p>
<p>My home is in the journey,<br />I feel home in the thrill of unknown;<br />Tonight the pull is so strong,<br />And I could hear the night breeze arrive.</p>
<p>Tonight the breeze is not gentle,<br />He is not the slow love-maker;<br />There is an all consuming frenzy,<br />And he howls out his passion.</p>
<p>The wind&#8217;s passion enters my heart,<br />Tugs at those unseen ties,<br />And pulls at them with fury;<br />I stop and wait, listening within.</p>
<p>The sheep keep moving, <br />Towards their home,<br />As my ties get broken,<br />One by one.</p>
<p>The sheep will move on,<br />When I am gone.<br />The world will still spin,<br />When I am gone.</p>
<p>The wind breathes,<br />Messages in my ears,<br />To abandon this desolateness,<br />To spread my wings and fly.</p>
<p>There is only one moment,<br />This moment,<br />To decide, to act.<br />And I have decided.</p>
<p>The fears that I shed,<br />Fly away in the raging wind;<br />There is only one path now,<br />And it will lead me afar.</p>

<p><span class="userContent">In times of trouble<br /> When it’s hard to see<br /> I close my eyes<br /> And I journey…<br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> <br /> Emptying my mind<br /> And watching my breath<br /> With condition and openness… <br /> I arrive at the hearts truth</p>
<p> (Meditation)</p>
<p> Sitting in observation<br /> I see beauty and light<br /> The singing of birds<br /> Cause me to take flight</p>
<p> The journey to divine<br /> Has set me free…<br /> With each and every breath<br /> I am reminded of life’s simplicity</p>
<p> Traveling to the state of clarity <br /> I am gently shown life’s purity<br /> Inhaling a new sense of identity<br /> Exhaling all of my troubles exponentially </p>
<p> Without the observer<br /> There are no observations<br /> Without the thinker<br /> There are no thoughts…</p>
<p> Having taken the journey<br /> From dark to light<br /> Became the beginning and the end <br /> As well as the first step and the last …</p>
<p> I gained a new understanding of self through the dark and the light.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>DAY FIVE AND SIX 23-24 Februari 2013</p>
<p>Its city tour time….setelah puas belanja, lalu mengunjungi Nami Island, akhirnya kita berkesempatan mengikuti city tour yang dipromosikan oleh pemerintah korea selatan, dengan menggunakan city tour bus dengan harga krw 10,000, kita bisa mengelilingi pusat wisata di Seoul dengan naik bis secara hop on hop off. Kita bisa naik dan turun sepuasnya, dan bis akan datang setiap 30 menit di titik-titik lokasi wisata. Tapi sebelum naik city tour bus, pagi, kita menyempatkan diri menuju patung king sejong yang berada dekat dengan stasiun Gwanghwamun. Patung king sejong juga berhadapan dengan Gwanghwamun Palace, salah satu kerajaan terbesar di Seoul, dan beruntung kita berkesempatan menyaksikan upacara pergantian punggawa/pengawal kerajaan di sini. Acaranya mulai jam 10 tepat, setelah upacara selesai, kita diperbolehkan berfoto2 ria dengan sang pengawal..mantap…</p>
<div id="attachment_550" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 555px"><a href="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/city-tour.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-550" alt="City Tour" src="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/city-tour.jpg?w=545&#038;h=310" width="545" height="310" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">City Tour</p></div>
<div id="attachment_552" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 555px"><a href="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/city-tour-01.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-552" alt="City Tour" src="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/city-tour-01.jpg?w=545&#038;h=308" width="545" height="308" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">City Tour</p></div>
<p>Jam sebelas, kita memulai city tour dengan menuju Deoksugung palace, kebetulan disana ada pergantian pengawal juga, sama kerennya dengan di Gwanghwamun palace. Tidak lupa berfoto2 dengan pengawalnya…</p>
<div id="attachment_551" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 555px"><a href="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/city-tour-02.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-551" alt="City Tour" src="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/city-tour-02.jpg?w=545&#038;h=310" width="545" height="310" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">City Tour</p></div>
<p>Dari Deoksogung, kita lanjut melewati Namdaemun Market, Seoul Station, Yongsan Station, USO, dan kita berhenti di National Museum of Korea. Museum ini luaaaas banget, dan dasar anak2 malas, kita memilih berfoto2 ria di luar musium ketimbang masuk ke dalamnya.</p>
<div id="attachment_553" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 555px"><a href="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/the-korean-war-memorial-hall-dan-army-base.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-553" alt="The Korean War Memorial Hall dan Army Base" src="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/the-korean-war-memorial-hall-dan-army-base.jpg?w=545&#038;h=154" width="545" height="154" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">The Korean War Memorial Hall dan Army Base</p></div>
<p>Setelah puas, kita lanjut naik bis lagi melewati The Korean War Memorial Hall dan Army Base, kita gak turun disana, karena kita mengejar makan siang dan sholat di itaewon. Dan tepat jam 1, kita sampai juga di itaewon, disini ada satu-satunya mesjid besar, namanya Seoul Central Mosque, disekitarnya banyak supermarket dan restoran muslim yang halal tentu saja. Sebelum sholat, kita putusin makan di Pasha, salah satu restoran turki, cukup enak dan tidak terlalu mahal harganya. Setelah itu kita pun menuju mesjid untuk sholat. Cukup lama juga kita di Itaewon, menikmati district ini sambil berfoto dia di mesjid dan moslem center.</p>
<p><a href="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/seoul-central-mosque.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-554" alt="Seoul Central Mosque" src="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/seoul-central-mosque.jpg?w=545&#038;h=154" width="545" height="154" /></a></p>
<dl class="wp-caption alignleft" id="attachment_554" style="width:555px;">
<dd class="wp-caption-dd">Seoul Central Mosque</dd>
</dl>
<p>Jam 4 sore kita naik bis lagi, tadinya mau turun di Namsangol Hanok Village, tapi mengingat waktu sudah semakin sore, kita memutuskan terus di dalam bis menuju Namsan Tower. Disini gue beruntung bisa nangkep suasana sunset yang luar biasa indah. Sayangnya kita gak naek ke tower..selain bayar…ngantrinya booo….view dari luar juga udah keren banget. So cool deh…</p>
<p><a href="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/namsan-tower.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-555" alt="Namsan Tower" src="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/namsan-tower.jpg?w=545&#038;h=155" width="545" height="155" /></a></p>
<dl class="wp-caption alignleft" id="attachment_555" style="width:555px;">

<p>Jam 6 sore kita naik bis lagi dan memutuskan tetap di bis sampai perberhentian di Insadong, dari situ kita bisa jalan kaki ke hostel. Waktu sudah semakin malam dan kita juga belum packing karena besok pagi kita harus sudah berada dibandara jam 7 pagi.</p>
<p>Packing ternyata jadi hal yang paling repot ketika pulang, karena, tidak hanya kita harus memasukkan baju2 yang sudah tebal ke ransel/koper kita, tapi juga ada tambahan barang2 berupa oleh2, souvenir dll. Untungnya Air Asia masih membuka kesempatan beli bagasi hingga 4 jam sebelum keberangkatan. Kita pun akhirnya memutuskan beli bagasi untuk kepulangan.</p>
<p>DAY SIX 24 Februari 2013</p>
<p>Jam 5 pagi kita sudah siap di lobby hostel, Kim pemilik hostel ternyata sudah bangun, dan kamipun berkesempatan say goodbye dengan Kim. Sayang tidak ketemu Choi yang selalu membantu kita setiap merencanakan perjalanan, say hi untuk Choi ya kim….</p>
<div id="attachment_558" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 504px"><a href="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/dengan-kim-pemilik-hostel.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-558" alt="Dengan Kim pemilik hostel" src="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/dengan-kim-pemilik-hostel.jpg?w=494&#038;h=280" width="494" height="280" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Dengan Kim pemilik hostel</p></div>
<p>Kita pun segera naik Limousine Bus menuju Airport, posisinya disebrang hostel kita, 5 menit menunggu, bis pun datang, kita pun segera naik dan jam 6.30 kita sampai di Bandara Incheon. Rasanya belum puas berjalan-jalan dan menikmati wisata korea selatan, Mudah2an bisa kembali lagi one day..setelah transit di LCCT selama 3 jam, kita pun kembali ke Jakarta jam 8 malam. Good bye winter korea, it was an unforgettable moment for us…</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday morning, I caught a bus to work. It was a hectic day because the trains had been delayed and there was excess traffic on the roads. </p>
<p>The driver was particularly crazy on this day, taking corners like a rally driver. On one of these rally corners a woman at the front of the bus slipped off her seat. Just slipped off, on to the ground, in the middle of the aisle. Those around her leapt to her aid and helped her to her feet, where she resumed her seat. All without a sound. </p>
<p>It was one of the most surreal experiences. So much so that I looked around for the hidden camera, the surprise presenter to emerge from behind a seat to tell the bus load of passengers that it was a social experiment. </p>
<p>I still half expect to see myself on a documentary in the near future &#8230;.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is a scene in one of my all time favorite movies, &#8220;What About Bob?&#8221;, that comes to mind each time I embark on something new.  A little background:  Bob, played by Bill Murray, lives by himself in an apartment in New York City.  Paranoid and anxiety ridden, he manages to get through his day by following a strict routine.  Every day it&#8217;s the same.  He seems to find a measure of comfort in waking at exactly the same time every morning, and making his way through the same daily tasks in the same daily order, day in and day out.  Anything that interrupts Bob&#8217;s routine sends him spiraling into a panic.  A series of significant interruptions in Bob&#8217;s life drives him to take the advice of his new and very  self-absorbed psychiatrist, Dr. Leo Marvin (Richard Dryfus), literally and so, he decides to take a vacation from his troubles.  On vacation, Bob decides to engage with life.  His confidence grows as he puts one foot in front of the other . . . &#8220;<em>Baby Stepping</em>&#8221; into a new life!  Fast forward to my scene:  Bob&#8217;s new friends have invited him to go sailing.  As the boat tacks its way across the lake, it passes by the dock where Dr. Marvin is trying to teach his disinterested son the fundamentals of diving.  An elated Bob, tied to the sailboat&#8217;s mast, smiles and shouts out to his stunned psychiatrist and to the world, &#8220;I Sail, Dr. Marvin!  I SAIL!!!!&#8221; In my  profession as an interior designer, I have the great pleasure of meeting people from many walks of life.  That first meeting usually begins with an apology for the way things are,  to which I respond, &#8220;No apologies necessary.  This is why you called me in.  This is the reason I have a job!&#8221;  The transformation begins.  The design  process is really a journey of self-discovery.  It opens the eyes to new possibilities and ways of doing things.  It teaches us to analyze our emotions and responses:  to understand why we do or do not resonate with something.  As we engage with it, wrestle with it, and come to terms with it, our confidence grows.  Sometimes we have to <em>B</em><em>aby Step,</em> and then, we get to the point where we can put the anxiety aside and take that leap of Faith.  And you thought Design was just about stuff! I look forward to sharing my passion for design with you, to exploring the possibilities,  the trends, and the classics.  I look forward to stimulating discussion, to problem solving, to challenging you to think outside the box&#8211;to being &#8220;All In&#8221;.  Most of all, I look forward to hearing your strong and elated voice, full of confidence, sounding over the waters, &#8220;I Sail!   I SAIL!!!&#8221;</p>

It&#8217;s back! After being closed for 5 years due to a fire and reconstruction it has been rebuilt and there was kind of intense security. People watching everywhere! I stepped on grass to get a better angle and they told me to move away.</p>

<p>Designated on Dec 20, 1962</p>
<p>Sungnyemun, the South Gate of Seoul, was erected in 1398, 7th year of King Taejo, founder of the Joseon Dynasty, as one of the four main gates of the capital city.</p>
<p>In February 2008, an arsonist set fire to the gate, almost entirely destroying the roof of the gate house, to the nation&#8217;s great horror. Repair was planned and carried out for five years, from 2008-2013, during which the city walls to the right and left of the gate were also restored.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>DAY 4, 22 Februari 2013.</p>
<p>Pagi hari jam 6, pintu kamar gue digedor-gedor Hari, dia teriak-teriak..saljunya turun..saljunya turun (bodo dibilang norak akut), gue buru-buru keluar, agak nekat karena suhu udara sedang mencapai -7 derajat Celsius, and wow subhanallah…secara kita tinggal di daerah tropis, melihat salju turun tentu menjadi kenikmatan sendiri…what a miracle…gue nyempatin keluar ke jalanan untuk melihat lebih jelas, dan setelah itu lari terbirit-birit karena kedinginan hehehe…</p>
<div id="attachment_533" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 555px"><a href="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/menuju-tapgol-park.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-533" alt="Menuju Tapgol Park" src="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/menuju-tapgol-park.jpg?w=545&#038;h=368" width="545" height="368" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Menuju Tapgol Park</p></div>
<p>Hari ini jadwal perjalanan kita adalah menuju Nami Island. Jam 9 pagi kita sudah keluar dari Hostel menuju Tapgol Park, hari ini Tapgol Park diselimuti salju tebal, membuat taman ini kelihatan lebih indah. Shuttle bis menuju Nami sudah diparkir di depan taman, tapi kita masih harus menunggu karena bis baru berangkat jam 10 pagi. Kita berkesempatan berfoto2 dulu di depan taman, sambil menunggu bis berangkat.</p>
<div id="attachment_534" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 555px"><a href="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/tapgol-park.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-534" alt="Tapgol Park" src="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/tapgol-park.jpg?w=545&#038;h=154" width="545" height="154" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Tapgol Park</p></div>
<div id="attachment_535" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 555px"><a href="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/tapgol-park-02.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-535" alt="Tapgol Park" src="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/tapgol-park-02.jpg?w=545&#038;h=155" width="545" height="155" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Tapgol Park</p></div>
<p>Jam 9.30, sopir bis mulai membagikan tiket kepada calon penumpang, harga tiketnya krw 23.000 atau kurang lebih sekitar Rp. 207.000 rupiah/org. Kita diminta duduk sesuai no seat yang ada dan jam 10 tepat bis pun berangkat menuju Nami Island. Perjalanannya memakan waktu 1.5 jam menuju pelabuhan untuk naik ferri menyeberangi sungai Han. Ferry nya bentuknya lucu banget..atapnya bulat dan banyak sekali bendera-bendera Negara berkibar, kita pun menyempatkan foto-fot dibawah bendera Indonesia..and yes we finally touch down the island.</p>
<div id="attachment_536" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 555px"><a href="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/nami-island.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-536" alt="Nami Island" src="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/nami-island.jpg?w=545&#038;h=154" width="545" height="154" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Nami Island</p></div>
<div id="attachment_537" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 555px"><a href="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/nami-island-02.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-537" alt="Nami Island" src="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/nami-island-02.jpg?w=545&#038;h=308" width="545" height="308" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Nami Island</p></div>
<p>Untuk mengitari pulau ini, banyak transportasi yang disediakan, mau jalan kaki tinggal menelusuri jalan setapak di jajaran pohon-pohon indah pulau ini. Bisa juga naik sepeda, naik kereta mini atau naik mobil kecil eletrik. Disana kita dihadapkan pada pemandangan alam yang luar biasa indah, so nature….ga nyangka bisa kesini, dulu sempet liat sekilas film drama korea Winter Sonata….and now here we are.. so gratefull…</p>
<div id="attachment_538" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 555px"><a href="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/nami-island-03.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-538" alt="Nami Island" src="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/nami-island-03.jpg?w=545&#038;h=462" width="545" height="462" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Nami Island</p></div>
<p>Setelah sekitar 2 jam di sini, jam 3 kita segera menyebrang kembali, karena shuttle bisnya akan segera kembali ke kota Seoul sekitar pukul 4 sore. Its was an unforgettable moment in Nami Island……</p>
<p>Jam 5.30 sore kita sudah sampai di Seoul, kita menyempatkan diri mampir ke Insadong kembali, suasana malam hari di Insadong lebih ramai daripada di pagi hari, tidak lupa kita jajan street food yang yummy seperti waffle, kentang goreng, kue kacang dll. Dari insadong kita melanjutkan perjalanan kita dengan jalan kaki ke daerah Myeongdong. Orang bilang,disini tempat toko2 branded, jadi kita mutusin untuk window shopping kesana (iyalah…branded? Ga cocok sama kantong2 kita hihihi)…Ternyata suasana di sana sangat ramai, karena, ternyata sedang ada Korean Sales 2013. Tapi dasar yang dijual barang-barang branded, tetepi aja biar di sale bagi kita harganya selangit…jadi tetep…window shopping aja….</p>
<div id="attachment_539" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 555px"><a href="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/daerah-myeongdong-korean-sales-2013.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-539" alt="Daerah Myeongdong - Korean Sales 2013" src="http://dolanyukz.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/daerah-myeongdong-korean-sales-2013.jpg?w=545&#038;h=309" width="545" height="309" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Daerah Myeongdong &#8211; Korean Sales 2013</p></div>
<p>Akhirnya badan kita gak kuat juga sama dinginnya cuaca di Seoul, kita pun terseok-seok berjalan dan memutuskan utk naik subway dari Myeongdong ke Jongno-gu, tempat hostel kita berada, and wow what a relief, begitu sampai hostel kita semua langsung tepaarrr.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Along the Cheonggyecheon stream in Seoul there were tons of lanterns for Buddhas birthday, which was May 17th. The lanterns went up way before and were taken down 100% on the 19th, with some being taken down before.</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t say what was going on in the lanterns, as they were all written about in Korean. Some were in trees next to the road, but most were in the stream itself.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Women enter my home with open hearts and sit down in a circle. Smiles and laughter enter my living room. Easily and effortlessly they introduce themselves to each other. Cups of tea warm our hands. I am hosting my ninth group based on my forthcoming book and it feels like home. It is home. Once I get to talking and I find my rhythm, I find grace and she finds me. I feel my words resonating inside their hearts and minds. And I buzz &#8230; I buzz like a bee around honey. So sweet it is.</p>
<p>I can feel the energy in the room, it<a href="http://anewleaf4u.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/radiant-heart.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-338" alt="radiant heart" src="http://anewleaf4u.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/radiant-heart.jpg?w=185&#038;h=185" width="185" height="185" /></a> flows like a babbling brook. Those pebbles of insight come to the surface and we ease into a grin. A grin that brings warmth and covers us all. We find our streams of interconnectedness. We become one.</p>
<p>Women starting over learning to reconnect. &#8220;I am not telling you anything you don&#8217;t already know,&#8221; I tell them. &#8220;I am reminding you of those truths that reside within.&#8221; And in this case there are 12 &#8230; 12 spiritual truths for starting over ;-)</p>
<p>Women leave my home giving hugs. They look each other in the eye with a new recognition &#8220;I am you&#8221; and &#8220;you are me.&#8221;  Their footsteps lead them back into their lives with truths resonating in their hearts.</p>
<p>I am filled with gratitude for the opportunity to lead this group, and I appreciate these women so much. They are so important in this journey toward getting my book out there! To help them in the process is the silver lining that feeds my soul.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is so amazing how your thoughts reach to the alike in the universe and how they find their way back to you. Blogging is enriching my experience in the similar way. Never thought that my thoughts and quotes would be liked and followed by soul- rich people all over the world, whom I would have not known otherwise (though I agree, the connection was always there). And I surely know that the subject of spirituality hardly needs any writing skills, vocab or knowledge. It&#8217;s more about how you feel and being aware of it as much as you can. And then whatever you feel strongly, must be put in front of the world that&#8217;s left open to you. Like everything else, the spirituality comes to you in its own time and you&#8217;ll know it since God starts directing your energy towards it. All you have to do is keep your senses wide open and learn to receive. Remember, all beings on this earth are spiritual since all of them come from the ONE whole source, the power we know as God!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ok, so I&#8217;ve decided to give keeping a blog a go. I&#8217;m just under 6 weeks into my first ever bodybuilding comp prep. It&#8217;s 12 weeks of strict dieting and training as I&#8217;m told to train. I&#8217;m enjoying it so far and haven&#8217;t found the restriction on food to be too bad&#8230; Yet. The next 6 weeks will no doubt test me, but I&#8217;m determined to get up on that stage on the 7th July in my bikini in the best shape I&#8217;ve ever been in!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey guys, so it is time for another status update on my health and fitness life! Okay, so I am not going to lie. I have missed a lot, A LOT of running and walking opportunities. I am still eating better food, in smaller portions and finding ways to fit in a walk or work out here and there. Fortunately for me, my persistence has paid off, I am in a whole new weight class! I am not sure that I have ever posted, or even told people my weight because I was and still am way embarrassed by it, but at the beginning of this experience I was 270 pounds, yikes I know. As of a few days ago, I dropped down to 237 lbs! I still have A LOT to lose and a lot of hard work ahead of me, but I am looking forward to every minute of the journey! Here is to the next 30 lbs!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi, I&#8217;m Flor. I&#8217;m choosing to use my alter ego Flor to remain anonymous. While potentially no-one could read this, my identity is something I want to keep private on the internet, or at least until I feel comfortable.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m a 22 year old student (part-time waitress) living in Melbourne, Australia. All of my life I have been overweight. As a kid it didn&#8217;t really affect me. I still did all the things I wanted to do and I was happy. But as I became a teenager, it dragged me into a rather unhappy world and left me regretting much of my teenage years. When I was 18, I found out I had Polycystic Ovaries or Pcos. I didn&#8217;t really take much notice until recently when I learnt the struggle I might face having children when I am ready. So at 22 I&#8217;ve decided to lose weight and blog about it. Whilst I have lovely friends, I never felt comfortable talking to them about this. Only my parents and siblings know about my Pcos. I figured blogging about my journey will help as a release. I will post photos, recipes, exercise entries, basically anything relating to my process (and maybe some other cute things I find along the way!)</p>
<p>I&#8217;m hopeful this will reach out to other people with or without Pcos and we can create a nice little community.</p>
<p>Flor~</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>DAY 3:  21 FEBRUARI 2013</p>
<p>Jam 7.30 kita sarapan di basement. Dapurnya lumayan besar, ada TV, PC Komputer untuk browsing, ada kulkas, kita boleh menaruh makanan kita di kulkas. Ada coffee maker, kopi, susu bubuk coklat, roti, selai untuk sarapan. Sambil sarapan, kita minta tolong Choi untuk reserve perjalanan ke Nami Island. Orang bilang, kalau pemandangan musim dingin di Nami Island itu keren banget. Hampir sama dengan di resort-resort pegunungan yang bersalju yang letaknya cukup jauh dari Seoul. Dan tentu saja biayanya lebih murah daripada tur lainnya, karena, Choi reserve kita menggunakan shuttle bus yang disiapkan Republic Naminara (nama pemerintahan di Nami Island) untuk turis-turis yang ingin kesana. Tadinya pengen sabtu disana, supaya anak2 cowok bisa dapat jumatan di Seoul Central Mosque di Itaewon, tapi ternyata menurut  Choi, sabtu sudah penuh, tinggal Jumat, mau tidak mau anak-anak cowo sholat jumatnya harus di Nami Island, kata Choi, dia sudah tanya katanya ada mesjid kecil disana. Thanks Choi&#8230;.</p>
<p>Hari ini kita sepakat untuk putar-putar disekitar pusat perbelanjaan di Seoul sekalian beli oleh-oleh. Biar Sabtu, kita bisa City Tour dengan tenang tanpa harus kepikiran beli oleh-oleh. Perjalanan dimulai ke Insadong. Hanya jalan 5 menit dari hostel kita berada disebrang jalan dekat Tapgol Park. Suasana nya enak banget disini, barang2 yang dijual juga khas suvenir korea, ada beberapa makanan/kue tradisional korea, sambil mencicipi tentu saja. Kami bertemu petugas informasi yang menyarankan kami untuk menikmati teh tradisional korea di Korean Traditional Tea House. Menurut info, belum ke insadong kalau belum menikmati teh khas korea disini. Akhirnya kitapun sepakat kesana. Mereka menyajikan kita berbagai jenis teh tradisional khas korea, sayangnya kita gak sempet catet namanya satu-satu, rasanya awal agak-agak aneh di lidah kita, tapi enak juga sii…different lah sama teh kita, walau harus gue bilang teh kita tetep yang paling uenaak….</p>

<p>Dari Korean Traditional Tea House kita menuju ke Jongno-gu station untuk berpindah ke market yang lain yaitu Namdaemun Market, ini adalah salah satu wholesale market yang paling terkenal di Seoul. Barangnya murah-murah, lebih murah dari market yang lain di Seoul, asal lo jago  nawar (gaya emak-emak di tenabang)….semua barang ada di sini, dari fashion, souvenirs, etc. Kita pun berkesempatan belanja souvenir untuk oleh-oleh di rumah, barang wajibnya..yes gantungan kunci dan tempelan kulkas…hehehe. Jujur sebenarnya harganya masih mahal dibanding negara-negara lain yang udah kita kunjungi, jadi gak bisa beli banyak..budget terbatas booo.</p>

<p>Dari Namdaemun kita melanjutkan perjalanan ke Dongdaemun Market, masih pakai subway..keluar dari station, kita disuguhkan bangunan megah Dongdaemun Gate…sebelum belanja, biasa kita foto-fote dulu, sudah mulai malam di Dongdaemun, so kita focus di satu area aja, diantara jejeran shopping complex disini. Dongdaemun barang-barangnya lebih banyak fashion, and fashion korea its one of the best…duuh laper mata banget deh. Penjualnya selalu membanggakan barangnya because its made in korea, not made in C***a..hehehe. Beli apa kita? Heheha, malu ah..ketauan maruknya nanti…hahaha. Sudah hampir tengah malam…enough shopping deh, duitnya juga menipis neh…kita mutusin balik sambil menikmati suasana malam melewati chenggyecheon stream..hmm wish BKT (Banjir Kanal Timur) bisa seperti ini one day….</p>
