Jika Anda malas membawa perhiasan cincin ke toko emas untuk menyesuaikan ukurannya agar pas di jari, ada beberapa cara praktis mengecilkan cincin yang mudah dan bisa dilakukan sendiri di rumah. Seperti uraian berikut:

1. Poleskan kuteks bening di bagian dalam cincin (yang menyentuh kulit). Lakukan sampai beberapa tingkat lapisan, lalu coba kenakan di jari Anda. Jika masih terasa longgar, tambahkan polesan kutes hingga terasa pas dan fit di pergelangan jari.
Namun, ingat, sebelum memasangkan cincin ke jari, pastikan kuteks mengering di setiap lapisan yang Anda poles. Ternyata, cara ini bisa melindungi kulit jari yang sensitif terhadap benda metal.

2.  Isolasi transparan juga bisa dimanfaatkan untuk menyiasati cincin yang kebesaran. Caranya, ambil isolasi transparan, kemudian bagi dua memanjang (sehingga lebarnya jadi lebih kecil). Kemudian, tempelkan salah satu ujungnya ke bagian belakang cincin. Buat gerakan keluar masuk (dari luar dan dalam lingkaran cincin) sampai akhirnya menutupi seluruh lingkaran cincin. (Christina Andhika S.)

3. Kita dapat membeli pengganjal cincin dari katalog penawaran keperluan rumah tanga, yang terbuat dari plastik bening/ tabung karet terbelah yang dapat diselipkan ke balik cincin. Cara lain yang lebih mudah, lilitkan benang katun di balik cincin hingga mencapai ketebalan yang diinginkan . (AquaGirl)

Dulu suka nonton Telenovela ndak? Kalau pernah nonton TV pasti tau dong telenovela. Telenovela adalah judul kolektif untuk semua serial drama Amerika Latin yang memunculkan berbagai jenis novel televisi. Telenovela masuk ke Indonesia pada tahun akhir 90an sampai awal 20an.
Ini beberapa Telenovela favorit anak-anak, remaja, dan orang tua pada zaman itu.

1. Amigos  X Siempre 

Amigos X Siempre! ("Friends 4 Ever") adalah Telenovela asal Meksiko. Acara ini pertama sekali ditayangkan pada tahun 2000 dengan 115 episode.Ditayangkan di SCTV dan INDOSIAR.

Cerita tentang anak SMP ala Meksiko memang tidak biasa. Buktinya kehidupan ABG di telenovela Amigos X Siempre ini sungguh complicated. Ada Belinda (Ana) yang merupakan anak yang selalu bersedih. Ada Pedro yang hadir untuk mengajarkan senyum pada Ana meski dirinya sendiri sangat benci mentaati peraturan sekolah. Ada pula Santiago yang manja karena sangat kaya namun hanya dibesarkan oleh seorang pembantu rumah tangga. Masih ada Patricia, Carlitos, Renata, Rafa, dan lain sebagainya yang bersatu dalam sebuah persahabatan yang terikat kuat oleh musik.

  

2. Carita de Ángel

Carita de Angel (Wajah Malaikat) adalah telenovela anak yang diproduksi di Meksiko oleh Televisa pada tahun 2000 yang diproduksi oleh Nicandro Díaz González. Ini adalah remake dari telenovela Papa Corazon, yang juga diadaptasi untuk Mundo de Juguete. Ini membintangi Lisette Morelos, Miguel de León dan Daniela Aedo sebagai Dulce Maria. Pada tahun 2001 itu disiarkan di Amerika Serikat oleh penyiar berbahasa Spanyol Univision. Di antara tokoh-tokoh besar dari pemain nya adalah Meksiko Joaquín Cordero dan Ana Luisa Peluffo dan Argentina Libertad Lamarque, yang meninggal selama pembuatan film sinetron ini dan digantikan oleh aktris Silvia Pinal.
Dari 11 Desember 2000 sampai 5 Januari 2001 sinetron terputus siarannya untuk pergi ke Natal minitelenovela Rayito de Luz. Di Indonesia, telenovela ini disiarkan di RCTI pada awal 2003, dan setahun kemudian, pada tahun 2004, itu disiarkan di SCTV. Di Amerika Serikat, itu kembali ditayangkan-di saluran UNIMAS Spanyol (secara resmi dikenal sebagai Telefutura) dari 14 Juni 2012 sampai 28 Februari 2013. 

Telenovela ini bisa dibilang yang paling baru dan mungkin juga yang paling segar di ingatan. Kisah Dulce Maria untuk menemukan ibu tiri yang baik untuknya ini sangat ditunggu-tunggu lho! Dulce dan anjingnya Ciripa memang sama-sama lucu sih, tetapi ayahnya, Luciano Larios sebenarnya lebih lucu.

Dulce Maria adalah anak berumur 5 tahun yang bersekolah di sekolah katolik, Reina de America. Ketika di dalam asrama, Dulce hanya merasakan kasih sayang dari para biarawan dan biarawati serta pamannya yang menjadi pendeta di sekolah itu. Tante rambut palsu yang hobi berganti-ganti wig juga sering mengunjunginya karena ayahnya mengalami depresi akibat ditinggal mati istrinya. Di sekolah inilah Dulce bertemu dengan biarawati cantik bernama Cecilia yang kemudian menjadi ibu tiri terbaiknya.

3. COMPLICES AL RESCATE – Mariana dan Silvana

                                        

Mariana dan Silvana anak kembar yang waktu kecil terpisah. Mariana hidup biasa-biasa aja dengan bakat nyanyi yang luar biasa, sedangkan Silvana kebalikannya (dan pintar banget kalo nggak salah). Terus mereka tukeran identitas, ya begitulah seterusnya. Jujur aja, saya nggak nonton sampai habis banget telenovela ini. Terus kata Tante Wikipedia, Belinda Peregrin diganti sama Daniela Lujan di season 2.

4. Maria Belen

 

Inti ceritanya sih, si kecil Maria Belen itu terpisah sama orang tuanya dan dia menganggap orang tuanya sudah meninggal. Padahal sang ayah masih hidup dan masih sering bertemu dengannya. Hanya saja mereka sama-sama tidak tahu karena sudah saling menganggap kalo meninggal. Ceritanya juga pake dibumbui cerita percintaan juga. Namun ending ceritanya akhirnya si Belen ketemu sama ayahnya dan ia juga ibu baru yang gak lain adalah guru di sekolahnya.

Apakah kamu seorang yang lahir di tahun 90an? Kalau IYA berarti masa kecil kamu sangat menyenangkan. Kenapa? ya soalnya masi main mainan tradisional. Kalau sekarang kan anak-anak kecil mainannya gadget, game online, sosial media gitu.

Aku mau ngasi tau salah satu permainan tradisional di tempat tinggal ku yang sekarang langka banget liat anak kecil main ini, mainnya salah satu orang dalam posisi sujud terus yang lainnya naruh telapak tangannya di atas punggung orang yang lagi sujud itu sambil mindahin batu,  Lagunya kaya gini nih......

Segumbleng tai leq "nama" 

Meletus ale-ale

Ca ke bum ale-ale

Ca ke bum ale-ale

Banyak lagi pokoknya permainan yang make nyanyi-nyanyi gitu. Kalau di daerah kamu gimana?

Pernah main permainan ini?

Dulu main ini zaman SD dah ya, baru-baru tau namanya cowok terus korban senetron pacar-pacaran gitu. Eh akhirnya dibuatin permainan ramal-ramalan jari tangan gini hahaha. Tapi kalau zama sekarang android sudah punya aplikasi ramalannya sendiri, jadi anak zaman sekarang banyak yang ndak tau cara mainnya. Termasuk saya sudah lupa sebagiannya.

Inget sama mainan ini? Biasanya dulu dibawa ke mana saja , termasuk ke sekolah, serta berusaha menjaganya agar tidak 'mati'. Kadang jika peliharaan virtual lapar atau 'buang hajat', ada notifikasi bunya yang membuat ketahuan, dan guru pun merampasnya. Apa saja yang pernah kamu pelihara dari tamagotchi-mu? Tapi sekarang mainan ini sudah tidak diproduksi lagi. sudah tergantikan oleh 'POU' yang bisa didownload di PlayStore.

Nah, ini maaf dijadikan satu. Poko'e permainan itu sampe sekarang masih dimainkan dibanyak daerah di Indonesia. Jangan sampai punah ya.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Have you ever been hurt and the place tries to heal a bit? And you just pull the scar off of it over and over again." - Rosa Park

Ibarat anjing sama kucing yang ndak pernah bisa akur. kalo dibilang banyak perbedaan diantara kita yang emang bener, tapi "banyak yang bilang, beda itu konflik, yang kalah pasti salah. Beda itu memisahkan, yang tadinya mencintai jadi benci. Beda itu tabu, ujung-ujungnya jadi memaksakan kehendak. Padahal perbedaan kan bukan tentang siapa yang benar, tapi untuk memperkaya warna dunia. Seperti air dan minyak sulit bersatu namun bisa berdampingan. Dengan senyum, kata-kata dan pelukan yang hangat perbedaan jadi serasa menyenangkan... - Indomie"
seperti apa yang kamu bilang "kita yang jalani, bukan yang lain." Bertahan di dalam apa yang sudah menjadi pilihan itu sangat sulit, tapi dengan rasa Percaya kita bisa lewati semua yang tersulit. Berpegang teguh terhadap komitmen, memberi rasa nyaman satu sama lain itu emang susah, Sabar? jangan ditanya, itu yang kita terus coba sampe detik ini kan..
Makasih buat ndak pernah nyerah, masi banyak lagi ujian didepannya;) You&Me Against the World!

1. It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return.

But what is more painful is to love someone and never

find the courage to let that person know how you feel.

2. A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who

means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was

never meant to be and you just have to let go.

3. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a

porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away

feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.

4. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose

it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been

missing until it arrives.

5. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an

hour to like someone, and a day to love someone-but it

takes a lifetime to forget someone.

6. Don't go for looks, they can deceive. Don't go for wealth,

even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you

smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day

seem bright.

7. Dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go,

be what you want to be. Because you have only one life and

one chance to do all the things you want to do.

8. Always put yourself in the other's shoes. If you feel that it

hurts you, it probably hurts the person too.

9. A careless word may kindle strife. A cruel word may wreck

a life. A timely word may level stress. But a loving word may

heal and bless.

10. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best

of everything they just make the most of everything that comes

along their way.

11. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, ends with

a tear. When you were born, you were crying and everyone

around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die,

you're the one smiling and everyone around you is crying.
