The 25th Letter: A Reflection in Two Weeks in Jogja



I came up in a new boarding house (kost in Indonesian) on January 8th, 2021, I got sick headache and took a rest for two days. After that, I was going to spa and message clinic. I liked this place. I felt fully health after that.  After 10 months spending in my prison (my home, I mean, but I felt it was like a prison due to Covid-19). I felt back to re-fix my body again. I though it was should to be adapted before I will be head to be an usual again.

During a week ago, I went to some favorite places in Jogja and met many friends has not seen for a long time. I also back to taught in a new classroom with offline system and the strict of protocols. And now, I'm in Marko Milk. That is one of my favorite cafes ever I've visited in my life. And even, I always visit to here so more often. But, yeah, I love my parent at fully. I still remember that how did we make a decision to back home to Jogja. I exactly made a decision myself, actually. But my mom seems that didn't ready for me. Yeah, I understood at fully about that. I love my mom but I felt I have to do for myself.  I want to be alone and should take recovery my body, my mental, and my pshychology  But, I was happy with my mom. She is a women strongest ever I've seen. I love my mom.

And now, I am happy to enjoy and live in a new place and Jogja. From morning until night, I was surrounding in Jogja. Jogja memang istimewa or Jogja is special. That is a slogan I often seen. It is a place never forgotten. 

Although Jogja still has a high Covid-19 number, I feeling should to take responsibility to take a care myself.  I'm afraid of these place and the people. So, I rather to living in my boarding house than go outside, except if I have a business should finished. I always follow the protocols as how I made promise for myself and my family.  I will always pick a quite place up and yeah, sometimes, I will go to my friend's home. So, I hope I will be safe and to be okay. 

Next months, I will move again to old place in Maguwoharjo, but I don't know what will happen, Yeah, we will see how its happen. As exactly, I will live in Jogja until the end of semester in June. I hope I will continue as how I made promise and wanted that. It will be challenge for me about how do I will survive in Jogja in the middle of pandemic. I have submitted my decision to God. I don't know what will happen but I will ready for the possibilities will happens. I just want to enjoy and live in Jogja. I hope Jogja people will respect the protocols and help the struggle of medical team workers has been working in the hospital for months. I will be praying for all patients and the victim died due to Covid-19. We all hope that the vaccines will be ends the pandemic and bring out to back to normal activity like before the pandemic spreads over the world. 

May God bless you and international people over the world!.

Apakah Anda Sungguh Berpikir Bahwa Orang Tuli Tidak Bisa Belajar Bahasa Inggris? (Terjemahan Bahasa Indonesia)

Sumber:https://www.fitriananda.com/2020/08/ayo-belajar-bahasa-inggris-seru-loh_19.html  Sebagai orang Indonesia yang terlahir sebagai orang Tuli tidak akan pernah mudah. Ada banyak stereotipe tentang orang Tuli, seperti bodoh, bahasa isyarat adalah bahasa Tarzan, tidak ada masa depan, bisu, tidak sempurna, berdosa, dll. Dan juga, banyak orang dengar berpikir bahwa bahasa isyarat tidak dapat membantu orang Tuli untuk belajar untuk menulis dan berbicara. Sebaliknya, membaca bibir yang diyakini banyak orang dengar dapat membantu orang Tuli untuk menyesuaikan kehidupan masyarakat dengar secara standar. Seperti halnya Alexander Graham Bell adalah pendiri telepon, saya tidak yakin karena sejauh ini saya tahu bahwa dia mencuri telepon yang diklaimnya. Dia membenci bahasa isyarat karena menurutnya bahasa isyarat tidak dapat membantu orang Tuli untuk menulis bahasa Inggris dengan baik. Saya akan menjelaskan sejarah singkat Tuli tentang apa yang terjadi warisannya yang mengerikan untuk gener...

How Deaf People Experience Music?

Source: Drooble The Blog Fell the vibe: How deaf people experience music and create music When I was at the International English Center, I listened to music on my white earphone, my friend asked me, "How do you experience music?" This was a good question because hearing people think that Deaf people can't listen to music.  I answered, "Yes, I do!" How can it be? Here's I want to share how Deaf people experience music.  Deaf people can do anything except can't hear you know. Music is kind of identical to people who can listen to and sing. So, how can Deaf people experience music?  Firstly, we must always be grateful to God because we are born to have a modern-technology and it makes our life become easier and more accessible.

Why Should A Deaf Person Lives On A Hearing World?

As continued in previous writing titled "Am The Only Deaf Person", I want to speak on why should a Deaf person lives on a hearing world.  This is would be interesting because you know that none of many Deaf populations as much as hearing people have. Hearing people are bigger than Deaf people. Living as a Deaf person isn't easy, even for a hearing family who has Deaf children. Many hearing people do not know sign language. Only hearing people included a Deaf ally and maybe only 5% of the hearing people know sign language.  Which are least 10% of Deaf people who have studied at a mainstream school and as a bit of raised in the hearing world in all their life. As Surya-who was a Deaf panelist on Zoom- said that there are 90% of hearing families who have Deaf children and I can say only 4% of hearing families admitted to want to learn or teach sign language as a first language to their Deaf children. Everything can't change but Deaf people can be living on a hearing worl...
