Rencana akhir tahun gue buat pergi ke ponpes itu akhirnya kesampean juga. 26 Desember 2012 waktu yang tepat buat gue sama temen-temen pergi kesana. Step pertama, gue naek bis jurusan Jogja-Solo dengan aman dan nyaman. Walaupun pada awalnya gue hamper ditinggal abang keneknya Cuma gara-gara mau beli permen. Padahal kan gue udah bilang sama abang keneknya buat nungguin gue (curhat palah). Sesungguhnya Wendy bareng gue satu bis, tapi ternyata dia belom siap juga tiba disasaran lewatan bis gue. Akhirnya gue sendiri.

Sekitar jam 8 gue sampek ke klaten, dan singgah bentar ke rumah Mupli buat nge-teh bersama sariwangi hmm ..  (bisa dibilang begitu). Nunggu, nunggu, akhirnya datang juga semua. Rencana awal, kita pergi ke rumah Pak Sirod dulu buat silaturahmi. Akhirnya selesai juga. Walaupun pertemuan itu sangat singkat, tapi kenangan yang gak bakal gue lupain sama keluarga Pak Sirod tetep ber rahmat kok.

Lanjut. Udah lengkap semua. Ada gue, wendy, mupli, ipeh, maya. Sekarang naek bemo buat orang Jakarta atau taksi buat orang Kalimantan alias angkot buat orang Jawa. Lamak sumpah ! di perjalanan Cuma adanya goyang duduk aja. Tuh jalanan udah kayak erupsi gunung merapi aja, gronjal.  Kata si abang kenek kita masih harus naek bis lagi sampek pondok pesantrennya. Ya sudah buat kesana kita rela kepanasan, kehujanan, kesumpekan deh.

Oke kawan, kita naik bis yang ketiga kalinya. Dan Alhamdulillah sampai disana lumayan disambut sama Voni, temen mba ipeh waktu SMP. Cantik, iya cantik. Sayang ya pakai niqab . padahal cantik banget. Itulah rahasia seorang wanita bercadar, hehe (sok bijak).

Di sana, gue sama temen-temen dikenalin sama Ni’am sodaranya Imam Samudra, entah saudara dari apa y ague kagak paham yang nasab-nasabnya. Yang penting gue wawancara, bertukar pikiran, dan jadi deh seorang pers ! haha.

Pulangnya, kita takut banget nggak kedapetan bis. Setiap bemo yang lewat pasti nggak mau neriman penumpang lagi. Jahat pokoknya tuh bemo ! kita udah hopeless banget sama kendaraan yang lewat. Niatnya mau jempolrs, tapi kagak enak sama perasaan, ntar kalo gue diculik gimana?, piker gue sih begitu, masih kayak anak kecil. Dengan do a dan keyakinan, akhirnya kita dape juga bis jurusan kertasura. Fiuh ! hopelessnya menghilang seketika :D. kita diturunin sama abang keneknya di termina penggung. Emang sih butuh kesabaran buat nunggu bis ke Jokja-Solo, tapi itulah tatangan kita buat hari itu. ASYIKNYA JALAN-JALAN  :D

Ied Mubarak

This is special for my sister :D .in my country, Ramadan is a month which is awaited by all Muslims every year. fasted for 30 days is a must for any worship that Muslims all over the world.
after 30 days of continuous fasting, Muslims perform their prayers feast called Eid prayer in a large field, so that the Muslims gathered into one.
in Indonesia, there is a custom called MUDIK. the customary 'go home' or back to the family home each. usually only occurs in the first day of Eid al-Fitr. and occur every single year. it is highly anticipated by the family that wants to place his childhood hometown. because, at the time that the family can gather together.
a few days before the day of Eid al-Fitr lasts, the streets along the sidewalks or highways are very congested. highway a lot of cars and motorcycles through the back and forth, causing congestion.
besides going home, in Indonesia, there is also a kind event called purebred or HALAL gatherings. a collection of Muslim worshipers at a place to shake hands and is usually done after Eid al-Fitr prayer begins.
There are also visiting the neighbors or relatives to strengthen our ties. small children with their parents visit usually get pocket money or angpao of the landlord. very nice indeed!
There are also food Eid (Eid al-Fitr Eid =) typical of Indonesia, the diamond and opportunistic chicken. This is common for food provided at each home. diamond is the same with rice or as a square-shaped rice cake. than opportunistic chicken and diamond, there are also pastries widths. Eid cakes were served to the guests who visit the house. Eid is a blessing! Eid Mubarak!
