Idionesia
A slang term that refers to post-COVID condition in Indonesia that somehow resembles the post-apocalyptic dystopian future potrayed by the 2006 movie "Idiocracy", which is set in the year 2505
Ever since the pandemic, living in Idionesia feels like being stuck in a scene from 'Idiocracy'—the way people act and the craziness around us really resembles that post-apocalyptic vibe!

Chinese language
A slang term referring English as tonal language (read: the language where the tone and the intonation influence the meaning of a sentence), e.g. "You want to eat." v.s. "You want to eat?"
I never realized English could be like a Chinese language until I heard someone ask, 'You want to eat?' with such different tones—turns out it totally changes the meaning!

second-hand driver
As a second-hand driver, I had to really focus while backing the trailer into the campsite—it's all about teamwork with the host car!

Pedesan
Commonly mistaken to be spelt "Pedesaan" (meaning "countryside"), the name of this Indonesian restaurant Pedesan akcually means "spiciness" when it's spelt the way it is.
I thought I was going to a place called 'Pedesaan,' but when I got to Pedesan, I was pleasantly surprised by the spicy flavors of their dishes!

Garfield
Every time Monday rolls around, I can't help but feel like a true Garfield, just like Lucretia Garfield, dreading the mountain of work ahead!
