Manfaat Bunga Telang                 Butterfly Pea or Clitoria Ternatea or blue pea, I knew this plant from IG account @martani and fell in love with its blue color. Knowing that Martani also sell the Telang tea and its seed I decided to buy both the tea and seed. Within two days I accepted the telang packages and planted the seeds ASAP. Since I don't have any spaces around my house, I just planted in a small plastic pot. What a magic, the plant grew very fast and within 2 and a half months I saw some bright blue flower bloomed. I was grateful and can wait to see more flowers so that I can harvest them and make something with them.                 Well, FYI actually before I could harvest this Telang flower I had tried to make Telang tea with the dried Telang that I bought from Martani. When I tasted the drink, it didn't taste nor smell anything. Then I added some drops of lemon water and voila.....the blue color changed into purple, and it's so pretty and tasted good.

Hi, readers.... I am so sorry that I forget to update and upload this story. I completely forget about it until I opened it this afternoon. Well, I hope you enjoy this update! Bagian 4 Time flew by....It's almost the end of semester 1 and everything is just as normal as usual. But the feeling of lonely and sad stay forever with me. If only there weren't Chia that I meet at school every single day, may be it would be even unbearable to pass my days at school.  " Alief, kamu dah kerjakan tugas Passive Voice dan Scientific Text?," suara Chia tiba-tiba mengagetkanku. Reflek kututup buku diaryku, untung lah Chia tidak cukup dekat untuk bisa membaca catatanku. Kukira aku di kelas sendirian, ternyata Chia sedang asyik browsing dengan hpnya tepat tiga bangku di belakangku.  "Duh, untung jantungku gak copot Chi! Dari tadi hening kirain semua pada keluar..." "Ups! Sorry, buddy! I really didn't mean to suprise you. I am fasting today, that

Writing this won't change the result of the game...but at least I wanna tell everyone about this. Please be aware of this serious disease!! Cheating or deceit or CURANG in Bahasa Indonesia has destroyed everything in our life. It has offered us a false happiness, false respect, false dignity and false life. Here I will give some examples of cheating culture that has been accepted and practiced without any regret.  Starting from cheating in the exam, students are lazy to study and go to school just to get the certificate. Then cheating for money; there are many examples of this kind, such as cheating by the seller in order to get much profit, many seller will set the weight scale falsely. More recent technique used by the seller is by adding additive but dangerous things in the food or fruit, for instance meatball with borax and formalin, fruits with formalin, synthetic color and taste, Fried chicken with used oil and containing plastic, fish with formalin and synthetic colo

Today I wanna write about Sambung Nyawa leaf, a kind of herbal medicine with friendly taste even for children.This leaf always reminds me of  my dear father, since I know this leaf the first time from him. He told me that Sambung Nyawa leaf can cure many diseases. He suggested me to plant this kind of plant in case I need it. Even my dad also gave one to my parents in law.  Then, the chance to try this leaf came when my husband had stomachache, I picked 7 pieces of Sambung Nyawa leaf and ask him to chew and swallow them. And it worked!! He didn't need to go to the doctor. Sambung Nyawa leaf also cured my neighbor who had a diarrhea.  And it also worked to my son and I will tell you the detail. On Sunday morning at 1.30 p.m my 8 year old son woke me up and said " Mom, I have stomachache. I just threw up and now I think...." he couldn't finish his sentence and hurried back to the bathroom and vomit all he had in his stomach. I gave him a medicine we used to have and
