I Live in One Small Room By One Person, 9x9 Square Feet

I live in a small room of 9 x 9 square feet/ 3x3 meter, one room by one person, and I don't have a private bathroom. I don't know what it causes I live in a small room. I don't know.

My English lecturer died last night and I felt awful and sad. He was the best lecturer and always assisted me to learn English when I was a sophomore. Before that, I have new friends, the best one, the environment, and the house, and definitely, I will be able to be welcomed by the community. But in as time goes on, I always feel alone and lonely. That is different with live independently, in which I can be doing what usually I do. I have fear of being alone for a long time. When I went to Richesse Factory at Lippo Mall and ate no-spicy food with level 2, it was perfect and delicious. But I envy where I sat down next to two girls who took a spicy food challenge, I thought and they seemed happy and fun, became the best friendship. So ironically, I sat down in my sadness mentally and had to play cell phone instead. Actually, I wanted to cry when I was sad but I couldn't cry. I didn't know why. I ask does it was normal in the group chatting and they responded that is normal. Well, I don't have a clue.

I'm being human, would never lie that I can show up and that I can live independently and freely. I'm free and independent, as I do what I usually do. But, the social interactions, I need someone who cares, plays, becomes a good listener, and comes up to me when I'm alone. I can't lie and I need someone, that's all. I fight for my dream as you know, but which the person who needs someone who backs up for my life and makes it happy, and does not feels alone anymore. I have God for sure, He never leaves me but in human nature, I think I can't live alone anymore. I know many people who have been living alone for the whole of their life and they are happy. I can't and I need a person who cares and is a good listener to me. Sometimes, I would be happy because I feel free and independent. Sometimes not feels better. I don't know either. 

In the holy book I read, the verse says human beings are created to be a friend and partners and God will never leave them alone. It will happen in real life, as what I experience now. When I am alone in this small room, I would play on social media, the internet, write, watch sports games/movies/ drama series, and just fantasy. Cleaning room for sure, doing anything you assume what usually you do. If I feel bored, I love solo-traveling, trying the milk and ice cream, just see-slighting in the downtown by motorbike (usually 10-12 miles or around 5-8 kilometers in an hour at 35 mph or below 60 kph), and looking for a free WiFi. Barely do the sin, and again. And, now I love to pray alone for the hours in someplace that usually, I come to (but no longer come there because the place is closed and can't be used whenever I want to) since it gives me more peace and closer with God. I have to pray already and give my one hand to the Lord so my hand can be united with someone I need and ask for. I don't know who is someone, but I believe it will appear as soon or later as possible I wish. I never give up because I don't want to be alone anymore and I have fear of being alone for a long time. 

As kind of what I feel and to be heard by heart out by writing this stuff. By reason of, I know being alone is never helpful at all. I wish so.

I'm relieved now because writing is my tears sounding that I want to reveal.

Thank you. I hope God will answer my praying and my hand that I have given by hoping will be united with someone I ask for and need.

Gloss, A Forgotten Learning Foreign Language and Translate

I was testing a student who stood up to share her short story in signs in our class. She was so good at signing despite sign language being the third language that she is learning and isn't a native speaker. She was confused about gloss or glosa in Indonesian. That's the thing that is most often forgotten when learning and translating a foreign language. Foreign language teachers almost never teach about gloss to students and yeah, I am sure some do and some do not.  The Gloss (Gr) means when a word is attached to a sign in simple terms. It refers to the way that ASL (American Sign Language) names signs in order to give a sense of the meanings behind them. A word or word that represents that sign does not signify its meaning in any way (source: What Are Glosses in Sign Language/  https://www.ilovelanguages.com/what-are-glosses-in-sign-language ). A gloss happens because it causes when a student who learns a second language but their mind that used to be a native language as bo...
