I had posted this article 3 years ago but I feel led to post this again as we going to celebrate Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday or lots of people celebrate it as EASTER. I don't have much time to write over about this celebration though there is still so many things I want to write about Easter, Passover and Resurrection. Anyway, as for me and my family we celebrate it as PASSOVER and RESURRECTION. Easter itself happened because of Constantine [the emperor of the world in 325 AD] changed Passover to Easter for a spiritual reasons. There are 3 important feasts to God every year that have been wiped out from the Gregorian [our] calendar. We live under Gregorian calendar where the 1st day of the year is January 1st but God lives under bible calendar and the 1st day of the year is not January 1st but He starts with a religious day or convocation called PASSOVER. So here are the 3 important feast to God: -
1st - PASSOVER it was transformed and changed to Easter by Constantine. -
2nd - PENTECOST there is no Pentecost's day in the Gregorian Calender. -
3rd - THE ATONEMENT, Constantine took that celebration, changed and moved it to Dec 25 and called it Christmas. Why did He do that? Constantine in 325 AD killed preachers and the teaching about these 3 feasts, because he saw that there was a tremendous prosperity and blessing on the people of God when they celebrated these feasts. And he could not control them as these Christians were prospering. And He realized that when they understand the season of God that it was out of control for him as emperor. So at that time, if there were any preachers, ministers that wants to minister godliness to the world they were to take an oath of poverty saying that they would never preach prosperity, they would never preach to people that things are going to be great. They have to work for it, go through the government and the emperor.
Well, Passover itself in Hebrew means Pesach - to pass over, to exempt or to spare. It refers to the fact that God "passed over" the houses of the Jews when He was slaying the firstborn in every household of Egypt. “Pesach” is also the name of the sacrificial offering [a lamb] that was made in the temple on this holiday. It also means protection in Hebrew, is derived from the instructions given by God to Moses. In order to encourage Pharaoh to free the Israelites, God intended to kill the firstborn of both man and beast in Egypt. To protect themselves, the Israelites were told to mark their dwellings with lamb's blood so God could identify and "pass over" their homes.
Easter itself is a pagan festival which is named after a sex goddess. And that's where we get the bunny rabbit because of the reproduction and fertility of the rabbit. So that's why I didn't use the word easter for this celebration and didn't do the easter bunny and egg thing. I still respect all the people who do this tradition out there but be aware this is not God's holiday neither does He bless it. Learn the blessing of Passover for Jesus is our Passover Lamb. Though it's difficult to break with easter tradition and easter gifts from family and friends such as easter baskets, easter chocolates, easter eggs, etc we just want to celebrate this festival with the right understanding that Jesus the Perfect lamb of God died on the cross and rose from the dead on the 3rd day. That is the essence of this celebration. I can simply say Happy Resurection Day while other says Happy easter to me. God bless everyone... HAPPY RESURRECTION DAY...

Yipieeee.. sejak ada 'Anak Baru' hidup gw kayanya makin semarak deh... Semarak repotnya!!! huhuhuhu :p Ternyata gak gampang ngurus 2 anak tanpa bantuan siapa2. Apalagi punya anak umur 3 taon kaya lil c yg super duper aktif, ngurusnya emak sampe sempoyongan. Belon lagi 'Anak Baru' umur sebulan yg kerjaannya makan, bobo ama bikin dirty diapers ^_^.
Molor, belakangan jadi hobby ato bisa dibilang jadi pilihan utama. Kalo 'Anak Baru' bobo emaknya juga pengen bobo, kadang kesampean kadang mimpi doang hihihi abisnya mesti ngerjain PR [ngepel, nyikat wc, cuci piring, bersih2, bla bla bla bla] pas kelar udah siap2 mo ngorok si J udah tereak2.. hiiikzzz ato pas emak udah siap sedia menuju negeri mimpi giliran Chennaya bangun dari bobo siang yeeeeeee emak gigit keju deh..[daripada gigit jari pan sakit bow!]. Kalo impian udah gak kesampean kaya gini seharian emak bisa nge-Rap [pake gaya LL Cool J] ke siapa aja termasuk sang suami yg tak tahu apa2 hihihi kesiiiaaan deh... Anyway, 'Anak Baru' sebulan skrg udah makin gede kemaren ke dokter buat check up beratnya udah 9lbs 11oz [ngemut susu mulu seeh...] panjangnya udah 25,5inches [entar lagi udah bisa dipake buat nyolok mangga tetangga] ^_^ Mulai dia umur sebulan, sang 'Anak Baru' udah mulai bobo semalaman.. uhuuuuuuuuy! senangnya... artinya sang emak pun berjaya bisa ngimpi ampe tamat gak to be continue mulu..[bikin penasaran...] 'Anak baru' kadang bangun juga tengah malam cuman buat nyusu doang tapi abis itu teler lagi, mabok susu!!! Sejak umur 2 minggu sang 'anak baru' kena baby acne [normal for a newborn baby] yang bagaikan bintang bertebaran dilangit :P Juga dapet Cradle cap [normal juga for recently born baby] for a few days. Sekarang cradle capnya lenyap tak tersisa, tinggal baby acne-nyasatu dua yg masih betah hinggap di wajah sang 'Anak Baru'. Chennaya cinta banget ama si 'Anak Baru'. Saking cintanya, si 'Anak Baru' direcokin mulu. Kadang yg bersangkutan lagi lelap2nya eh digemez2 ama Lil C, bangunlah yg bersangkutan. Emak lagi turun tangan sampe ngos2an!!! Lil C has been such a good helper tho' udah bisa gw suruh2 ambilin diaper dong, ini dong, itu dong hehehe I'm so proud of her... Getting out of the house is a challenge, it seems the hardest thing to do now. Kebayang dong mesti nenteng-nenteng 2 anak, phhuff!!! So, lately ngerumah mulu deh gw staying in my comfy zone. Thank God mertua has been so helpful with Chennaya. Lil C kerumah mertua every other day, so gw bisa ngapa2in. Lebih gampang kemana2nya bareng 'Anak Baru' daripada lil C, emaknya keringetan mulu ngejar2 hehehe Anyway, that's it for now.. ada yg tereak2 neh. Yg satu minta susu yg satu minta apple juz. Leher emak udah digantungin handuk gantinya camera ^_* [status dari mamarazi berubah jadi tukang becak hihihi] I'm off... 
Mo bilang makasiiiiih banget buat gerombolan NY hehehe yg udah bela2in ke NJ pake bawa makanan ama bawa bunga lage... Duuh harum deh, makanan ama bunganyeee...
Itu rendang, cumi asin and telor puyuh balado nendang banget, udah dihajar habis ama gw and Chennaya. Hmmm.. kenyang!
Buat Younee, Roosa, Erna Thank you so much for visiting us yesterday. Thank you for the good food and the flowers and Thank you for the friendship! Chennaya tentu aja was having a blast, sorry buat hiper-nya lil C, setelah dipikir2 kenafa demikian ternyata semua berawal dari big slice ice cream cake and lots of gummy bears makanya anak gw menjadi - jadi. High sugar! Kesian Tante Erna di abuse lil C... kikik J seneng2 aja digendong tante2 canteeek..Untung gak tetanggaan, kalo iye bisya gaswat. si J bisya kewenakan....
Oker der, Makasiih lage yaa... muaaaaaach! muaaach...! I love you all....
For the Father Himself loves me
The Living God, who gives me richly all things to enjoy. The Lord who made heaven and earth bless me. The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, and He adds no sorrow with it. No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly.In this day... He will rejoice over me with gladness, He will quiet me with His love, He will rejoice over me with singing.Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them. But now, Lord...You says, who created me, and formed me...:"Fear not for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned. For I am the Lord your God...; you have been honored, and I have loved you."
The Lord is my God is with me wherever I go.
Jesus, Thank you for this day... Happy Birthday to me :p
  Gw lagi antri di Starbucks sabtu kemaren, depan gw ada cewe kecil imut rambut sebahu warna coklat ber- rok mini sambil nenteng LV bareng a guy setengah baya keliatan kaya bokapnya. Tumben Sabtu kemaren itu Starbuck gak begitu rame, satu cewe lagi mojok ama notebooknya, trus baristanya seorang yg sibuk satu lagi mondar mandir doang nyibukin diri trus seorang lagi yg cowo ngerumpie ama temennya.
Abis mesen minuman andalan gw, Soy Chai Latte [hmmmm...] Sambil nunggu gw bolak balik keluar masuk Starbucks ngecek si J yg lagi tidur gw tinggalin di mobil [ya, ya, ya I know i'm such a bad mom...] BT keluar masuk - keluar masuk gw merhatiin juga neh cewe depan gw hehehe kece seh, tiba2 gw sadar kalo si lelaki setengah baya itu bukan bokap dia, abeeez mesra sih.. but heck, who cares? Anyway, cerita ini bukan ttg gw, bukan pula ttg si cewe and si cowo [si Oom tepatnya] tapi ttg si Barista cowo yg lagi ngerumpie ama temennya. Si Barista muda nan ganteng abis nyelesain pesenan-nya si cewe sambil bilang; "Enjoy, have a good nite!", right after she turned her back she wasn't even out of the door, doski langsung bisik2 ama temannya ttg si cewe sambil nyibir2, ya olooooo.... gw yg nerhatiin dari belakang mo ngakak aja, sambil senyum2 pura2 gak ngeliatin pdhl neh mata gw terpaku ama dia cuman dia-nya pan kaga tau. Itulah keuntungannya berkacamata item sodara2 hehehe [Juling deh mata gw pas keluar dari Starbucks] Kata gw lucu aja, Si Barista cowo neh sambil ngomongin itu cewe sambil mayun. Lucu juga karna selama ini gw kaga pernah liatin cowo rumpie gitu. Secara gw dulu temenya mayoritas cowo tapi gak pada 'bibir' getooo! Liatin cowo ini gw jadi geli sambil senyum2 sendiri..[dlm ati dunk, entar pas balik kanan grak gw jadi bahan omongan lagi ama die dikirain gw gilang gemilang!] ^__^ Ternyata ada juga neh disini cowo2 nan kece tapi suka ngomongin orang.. weeeekzzzzz!!!

ER - ready to go home
Kamis malem yg lalu gw lagi makan malam ama Chennaya sambil duduk dimeja makan. Giliran dia udah kelar makan, baru gw makan, sambil merhatiin dia duduk sebelah gw. Dia nanya boleh gak lilinya dia tiup skrg? Gw bilang boleh tapi hati2. Pas gw balik badan mo nambah nasi nih ceritanya didapur, baru juga nyampe depan rice cooker. Buuk!!! Chennaya jatoh dari kursi makan. Gw langsung ke dining room, liatin dia dilantai dengan posisi tengkurap. Gw masih nyantai aja...Biasanya juga bangun sendiri.
Kali ini dia nangis [gak biasa2anya] gak bisa bangun juga sambil teriak "Momma, help! Momma, Help!!!" [sangat tidak biasa...] Gw langsung ngangkat dia sambil nanya apanya yg sakit. Lil C: "My arm, My arm" sambil nangis. Gw liatin tangan kirinya. Oh My God!!! Oh My God!!!
Langsung nelpon Daniel, gw keduduk sambil meluk Lil C dilantai nangis berdua. Lemes deh gw... Praise God, Daniel was only 5 minutes away from home. He got home less than 5. Sambil nenangin gw yg waktu itu kalap nangisnya ngalah2in tangisannya Chennaya. Kita langsung ke Emergency Room di nearest hospital in town.
After di X-ray, 2 tulang tangan kirinya [between her wrist and her elbow] retak. Satu retaknya banyak, satunya dikit. So, menurut dokter kalo dibiarin aja nanti pertumbuhan tulang tangannya bakalan bengkok. Jadi si dokter has to complete the break dengan kata laen karna tulang-nya cuman retak doang harus dipatahin selengkapnya biar pertumbuhannya sempurna. Auuuuuuuuuuuuwww...
Sebelum dipatahin
Sambil netesin aermata [heran juga aer mata gw masih ada aja, pdhl dari rumah ampe dirumah sakit nunggu X-ray gw nangis mulu hehehe] gw nge-undressed Lil C karna tanganya mesti di balut and dokter mesti do his job "rebreak the bones" :-( Chennaya yg waktu itu udah dipindahin ketempat tidur and ketiduran mesti bangun and ngerasain the pain again.
Gak tega banget deh liatin anak gw in pain gara2 tulangnya mesti dipatahin selengkapnya ama dokter. Untung dokterya prof and cekatan banget, sedetik aja and crack!!! Patah deh itu tulang.. aaaauuuuuuuuuw mana kedengeran lagi patahannya, Chennaya terang aja udah teriak2, Daniel juga nangis [gw pikir gw doang].... It broke my heart. I still couldn't get over it. Kalo inget pasti mewek lagi deh....
Sesudah dipatahin
Then X-ray again... Ternyata yg patahannya lengkap hanya satu tulang doang, tulang yg retakannya banyak [deg2an lagi gw ama Daniel, takut yg satunya mesti dipatahin lagi]. Tapi kata dokternya it's ok, nanti diliat minggu depannya kalo tulang yg gak patah itu gimana2, then we have to go with the surgery.
So, it's been a almost a week, Lil C had her dokter appoinment on Tuesday. The X-ray looked good, the bones looked perfect and No surgery needed [that was an answer prayers]. Hallelujah...!!!
 
In dr's room this Tuesday and the latest X-ray photo of Chennaya's arm
I'm so proud of my little girl, sejak malam kejadian itu of course dia gak bisa tidur semaleman, bangun tiap stengah jam mana pas waktu masih di RS mo dikasih Motrin penghilang sakit tapi dia gak mau, kita juga udah gak tega mo maksain. Alhasil gw juga gak tidur semaleman. But since then, besoknya ampe hari ini Lil C gak pernah sekalipun ngeluh kalo tangannya sakit. Secepatnya dia beradaptasi ngelakuin segala aktivitas dengan satu tangan.
I believe she'll be recover very soon. And I thank God for God's healing power over her life....
 Sejak MP brubah2, gw juga kawalahan... bukannya apa tapi setting front page gw juga brubah drastis, udah gitu keselnya gw dah gak bisa benerin... :-( Asli kacau balau deh... Mana gw gak bisa nemuin semua rumus dari sebelum MP brubah, gak tau pada kemana semua...
Yg ada tinggal welcome boxnya doang, laenya hilang dari pantauan... Itu pun items di Welcome box-nya pada kompak gak beraturan ada yg dibawah banget, ada yg diatas, gak balance deh... halaaaaaaaah pushing!!!
Belakangan banyak yg protes kenapa front page gw kacau balau hehehe Sorry bukannya sengaja sodara2, tapinya waktu itu secara gak sengaja gw cuman pengen ganti background doang, ternyata setting MP udah gak seperti dulu lagi... eeeeh all the sudden, kejadian deh MP gw porak poranda hiiikzzz...
Udah nyobain belajar lagi ngebenerin dari awal tapi level kesabaran gw tidak sehebat dulu lagi, ngaruh hormon kali ya? ^_^ Mana otak lagi bengkak juga neh mikir juga susah...
Yasudlah... All your help and advices are greatly appreciated. Thanks a bunch...
 Jujur, gw demen shopping...siapa sih yg gak? hehehe
Cuman kalo shopping online gw kudu mikir 7 hari 7 malem dulu kalo mo beli apa2 lewat internet. Liat2 sih sering belanja jarang kecuali terpaksa :p Terpaksa disini maksudnya kalo ditoko udah gak stok ato biasanya beli stok buat bisnis.
Bukannya apa selaen gw gak percaya gambar yg gak seindah aslinya, kalo belanja baju sepatu ato apalah yg pake size kadang size tiap merek kan beda belon tentu muat. kalo mo return ato exchange juga refot mending kalo boleh langsung ke tokonya. Selaen itu masalah keamanan juga yg paling gw jaga. Takut ngasih info credit card lewat internet walopun sitenya udah https... So selama ini gw jaraang banget bela beli online, enakan langsung ketoko deh... Kecuali beberapa site yg punya cara pembayaran "bill me later", bayarnya bisa belakangan setelah barang dikirim berikut bill-nya kita tinggal ngirim check belakangan.
So, beberapa waktu lalu gw iseng window shopping online pas lagi diskon and clearance di Victoria Secret. Eh, ketimpa deh... laper mata, setelah mikir 7 hari 7 malem dalem hati pengen nyobain, pas VS clothing kan cuman catalog ama online doang, ya udah jatoh deh gw mesen2 beberapa clothing-nya buat yg pertama kali dengan harapan gw gak salah pesen, semoga size-nya tepat, semoga bahannya bagus, and masih banyak semoga2 yg laennya juga...
Seminggu kemudia pesenen dateng, bingung gw darimana ya? Lupa kalo abis belanja online seminggu sebelumnya, pas buka bungkusan pertama... "Made in Indonesia" sodara- sodara... alamaaaaak, kualitas bahannya bikin gw sakit perut aauwww, bener ini yg gw pesen? Langsung ngecek kesitenya, tuh kan kata gw dlm ati: "Jangan percaya gambar!"
Untungnya pesanan2 berikutnya mayan menghibur hati, gak ada lagi yg Made in Indonesia... puuufh, rada lega dikit... laen kali gak lagi deh belanja online... kapok!
Kokiku

Belakangan ini sejak napsu makan gw jongkok dan napsu tidur gw meningkat ^__^ pengennya makan makanan tertentu aja. Kalo gak makan makanan Indonesia pasti makanan Manadoku tercinta. Apa daya kemampuan dapur gw juga semata kaki yg ada semua tinggal hayalan. Perna sekali nelpon Oma di Manado nanya gimana bikin babi tore *babi garing, red* sampe skrg gak pernah terwujud, mikirin mo masak udah bikin gw bt, duh gimana sih gw ini???
New year's eve kemaren, My husband si Daniel diundang buat pelayanan di salah satu gereja Indonesia daerah seputar sini. Ibadah old and new-nya Youth mereka. Ketemu temen2 lama bikin girang, tapi yg paling menakjubkan ada temennya ade gw nawarin PANGI, pas gw lagi curhat gimana kangennya gw ama makanan Manado, apalagi Natal Taon baru begini. Eh dikasiin pangi plus dapet bonus NASI JAHA sodara2!!! Ampuuuuun deh pas makan berasa di kampuuung bow, apalagi makan pake dabu2 lilang.... ^_____^
Nah pangi itu sejenis sayuran, gak ngerti sayuran apa bahasa Indonya. Yg penting masih termasuk dikeluarganya para sayur deh. Terus Nasi Jaha itu.. hmmmm, ya nasi deh yg dimasak di bulu terjemahan Indonya bambu. Gak ngerti juga deh gw gimana ngejelasinnya, pan udah gw sungging diatas kalo dunia masak memasak tuh gw jongkok banget cuman bisa makan doang!
Anyway, buat temen2 orang Manado yg jauh dari kampung dan jauh dari gw hihihi, ini namanya JURNAL BA GARA!!! hehehe Silahkan ba ewe ewe!!!

Asik? iyalah... banyakan asiknya ternyata. Sejauh ini sih... bangun pagi gak perlu refot2 ngurusin Lil C, nyokap dengan tangan terbuka udah siap sedia dengan segala tetek bengeknya Lil C diwaktu pagi... Sarapan udah siap, tinggal duduk doang and makan.
Mo ngapa2in ada nyokap yg bisa dititipin Chennaya bentar. Aseeeeek...
Cuman tetep aja ada gak enaknya... gak bisa bebas pake kompie! Kecuali malem2 bute kaya gini. Kalo siang susah... Nah kalo malem gini kadang gw udah tepar tuh bareng Chennaya, malem ini aja gw kayanya 'hidup' banget.

Kemaren itu July 5th, 06 acara ngumpul2 di rumahnya Younee Judulnya: "Baso and Rujak siapa takut???" ^_^ So gw dari New Jersey kudu ke Brooklyn, NY. Tadinya mo bareng Anna yg sama2 dari NJ cuman karna gw mesti ketemu orang dulu di 34th st, jadinya batal deh eh blakangan malah gw batal ketemu orang itu.
So dari Jersey gw nae bis ke NY brenti di Port Authority, stasiun bis di NYC. Kata Younee menurut direction yg dikasih, gw dari situ mesti naik Subway. Naik A trus turun di Jay St. baru nyebrang platform naik F kearah Brooklyn turun di 4th Ave.
Dari Port Authority dimulailah petualangan gw. Gw yg jarang banget naik Subway, pernah sih sekali2 tapi itu juga bareng temen. Sering ke NYC naik bus trus jalan kaki, ato naik mobil pribadi. Nah kali ini rada beda, make me so excited. Paling gak udah pernah sekali dua kali, jadinya beli tiket sub-nya juga udah ngerti gimana caranya hehehe gak tulalit jadinya depan mesin tiket.
Gw naik A dari Port Authorithy nyampe dengan sukses di Jay St sesuai direction. Aaaaag lega! Berhasiiill! Sambil senyum2 bangga turun dari sub. Udah gitu inget2 pesen Younee ditelpon sebelumnya dari situ nyebrang platform naeik F ke 4th Ave Brooklyn. Dengan percaya diri gw nyebrang, naik tangga turun disebrang, pas kereta dengan judul F nyampe, langsung lompat masuk dengan selamat.
30 menit berlalu, kok gw gak nyampe2 di 4th ave. Tiba2 stop berikutnya 42nd - Bryant Park. Masih belon ngeh sampe akhirnya brenti di stop berikut tuh Rockefeller Center. Tuiiing!!! Lho kok??? Nah lho kenafa gw bisa di Rockefeller center? Dalem hati masih bingung jangan2 ini Rockefeller Center-nya Brooklyn lageee hehehe Sampe akhirnya gw brenti di 54th baru sadar sesadar sadarnya kalo ternyata gw tuh ended up balik ke Manhattan lagi. Tolooooooong...!
So, I got off di 54th sambil mencak2 diri sendiri plus nyanyi2... How dumb thou art...! How dumb thou art! Somehow, I took a wrong train and I ended up in Manhattan again, duh 40 menit terbuang percuma. Dalem hati udah keseeeeel banget, kenafa bisa bego begitu sih?
But I managed, brenti di 54th, and then naik F lagi balik ke Jay st. Kali ini just to make sure, pas udah didalem kereta nanya2 ini bener ke Brooklyn ya hehehe untung dapet om2 bae hati sempet diajarin gimana cara ngeliat peta subway. Finally nyampe juga gw di 4th ave. Langsung telpon Younee, dalem hati lage neh... duh bakso-nya masih tersisa gak ya? hehehe Busyet deh perjalanan gw, undangannya jam 2 gw baru nyampe dirumah Younee jam 4 sore, wuaaaaaah lelet banget! Untung gw disisain bakso ama Anna and Erna hihihi
Ternyata kesalahan gw setelah dilacak terjadi waktu gw nyebrang platform di Jay St. Gw gak perlu nyebrang ke sebrang2 banget sampe naik tangga dan turun disebrang segala. Ternyata setelah turun dari sub A gw tuh tinggal balik kiri doang nunggu disitu juga. Duuh siapa yg tau kalo mesti kaya gitu doang. Alaaamak!
Abis makan bakso ngerumpi sambil makan rujak coleknya Younee and nonton film horor Indonesia MIRROR, serem juga tapi sedih juga.. hiiiks...
Ladies, I had a great time with all of you yesterday! Miss you guys already! !
