Mendengarkan musik itu haram?

Apakah mendengarkan musik itu haram?

"Listening to music is haram." I have heard this sentence, but I am not sure when was the first time I heard it. Well, I didn't trust that sentence, because I see that more and more Moslem sings religious songs. 

Then, last month, I saw a video on facebook. There was a cute toddler who asked by her guru (that video is to show how good she is in memorizing Islam rules). One answer that really make my jaw drop is when the teacher ask: "Listening to music?" toddler: "Haram."

After that, I just trying to find the other references on google. However, it was not fulfilled my curiosity. I felt restless (gelisah).

Two weeks after that, I asked my guru. She said: mmm, menjauhi dari mendengar musik untuk di jaman sekarang itu sulit. Dimana-mana kita mendengar musik, di supermarket, di manapun, sulit ya. Tergantung dari alat musik yang dipakai. Jika alat musiknya ditabuh, itu boleh. Nabi tidak melarangnya. Kalau sekarang, udah banyak kan yah alat musik seperti dipetik, dll. 

Tidak boleh mendengarkan musik mungkin dikarenakan repetisi dan masuk ke memori kita, teringat-ingat ketika kita melakukan aktivitas di kehidupan kita.

Review: SK-II Facial Treatment Essence and Facial Treatment Clear Lotion NOT RECOMMENDED

Hi, everyone.

As you can see in the title, I want to review SK 2 products. I bought these two SK-II products in Trans Studio Mall- Bandung- Indonesia with price Rp 700,000 at the end of 2014. They gave me a package (include: one bottle of facial treatment essence (75 ml), one bottle of facial treatment clear lotion (30 ml), and a sheet of SK-II face mask.

When I was buying this product, I had an acne prone skin. I had two big pimples on my cheek. The SK-II seller said it can help me to cure the acnes.
However, after three months, my acne was still there. I mean, the first acne has disappeared, then there was a child of acne appeared near the place where her mama died, then the child of acne disappeared, then the grandson appeared, and so on.
They said it will brighten my skin. However, I didn't feel it works for me.

What I like:
+ The face mask is the best ever.

What I dislike:
- I do not see or feel any different when I use these products.
- Not recommended for OILY SKIN
- The smell of FTE (smells like yeast)

Will I repurchase it:
No.

Thank you guys for reading  :)

Review: Vaseline Pure Petroleum Jelly

Halo, everyone..

Well today, I want to review Vaseline pure petroleum jelly product.

I just already know this product when I am in Taiwan because usually they just sell it online if you want to buy it in Indonesia. 

Actually, I have an oily skin. However, I will have a dry skin during winter. Then, I found this product. (haha, I am kinda late, right :p )
During winter, I apply vaseline on my elbows, knees and some parts of my face (cheek and the area close to my nose).
For everyday use, I use vaseline every night, to clean the lipstick on my lips. It's simple. I just take a little of it, dub it on my lips, and then I do a little massage with a circular motion. After one minute I massage my lips, I will take a sheet of cotton and wipe the excess vaseline on my lips.

This vaseline product can be used in some different ways: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/262968065715603677/

Musim Salju di Taiwan 2016

Saljuu di Taiwaann,, yeaayy!!
Taiwan emang punya 4 musim. However, kalo kita pengen melihat salju, kita harus pergi ke gunung Hehuanshan. Salju cuma bisa dilihat di gunung ini.
Namun, gilanya, January 2016 ini jadi rekor buat Taiwan. Untuk pertama kalinya, salju turun di beberapa wilayah di Taiwan, bukan cuma di Hehuanshan saja. Tanggal 23 Januari jadi hari dengan suhu paling dingin di Taiwan, sejak 40 tahun yang lalu.
Ternyata, dinginnya udara bawaan dari China ini merenggut nyawa hampir 100 orang di Taiwan. Buat kita para siswa atau pekerja yang tinggal di kosan atau asrama, itu ga ada yang namanya penghangat ruangan. Winter ya winter aja, harus tahan aja, paling pake jaket tebel atau hand warmer.
Di tangggal 23 Januari itu, gue kebetulan udah ga tinggal di asrama. Gue tinggal di kosan, daaann jendelanya boloong :(. Penjaga kosannya belum bisa ngebenerin, jadi aja gue tempel pake kardus. Kebayang kan, betapa dinginnya 4 derajat celcius dengan kondisi jendela bolong yang cuma . ditempelin kardus :((. Keszeell -_- ,, akhirnya semaleman gue duduk depan kompor (berasa depan api unggun).

Walau wilayah gue ga kebagian salju, untungnya sebelum tanggal 23 Januari, gue udah pergi ke Hehuanshan buat ngenikmatin salju. Kalo gue ke Hehuanshan tanggal 23 Januari, udahlah mati gue ditiup badai salju :(.
