#Day3 - A Straight-Seven Days Without You

-
I didn't do it intentionally, but did it well eventually. I used to travel to my Mom's home in West Java annually after Ied Al-fitr. I just did it again a week ago. It is a semi remote area around Kawah Ijen crater. The weather is always freezing even in the afternoon. Don't ask me about the experience of taking shower in the morning, I can't barely feel my fingers as the water is almost ice up!

But, I can hold  phone to keep my hands warm. Simply because it was over-heated -- it was working too hard to get any signal. So, that was the beginning of those days without social media.

I feel so detoxed! I lived a very simple life those days. Chill and peaceful without thinking what should I post to show the world that I'm exist. Honestly, sometimes it wasn't about existance, instead a need to crave a certain attention from specific person after I posted something. Not good, I know.

However, at some point I just realized more of my personal communication with friends were happening in Instagram chat, even more than my chattong platform. So, when I stopped to open it, my chat notification turns a bit quiet. I started to wonder I lost so many important things. Until finally some people poke me directly because my Instagram account was quite inactive.

I just realized, somehow, what's important for you will always reach you.

Should I prolong it to another straight-seven days?

I'm Dancing When I Was Shaking

Well, I just contemplating about how my life seems to turn upside down in my perspective, while actually, it was gradually waking up in every downturn. In short, I've been working in a place with great turn over. They literally open for recruitment every day. To be honest, I got the job in easy way (compared to my other college friends). A week after my graduation I was interviewed and the next week after I've got the good news. On the very next week, I started my first day as Account Executive. Very easy, right? I still grateful for that. Maybe, because it was so easy I miscalculate the price of its opportunity. Or maybe, I misinterpreted the situations because I totally trapped inside its big complainer community (YEAH we complain about many things every day!). Above all, I spent most of my day hearing the complaints about overwork, overtime, under-appreciation, or inequality of working portion that leads to the office drama season 7. I have to admit the fatigue not reall

Sederhana dalam Berbahagia

-
Saya harap saya selalu ingat. Akan ada saat kita berusaha hingga merasa tidak berdaya Akan ada saat kita merasa ingin berhenti tetapi tidak melakukannya. Jangan, jangan berhenti. Karena, di saat itu biasanya doa kita akan terjawab. Semakin banyak waktu yang saya habiskan di dunia, semakin saya banyak berdoa. Meminta A atau meminta B. Setelahnya ditambah dengan meminta C, D, E, tidak ada habisnya. Semakin banyak yang saya minta semakin banyak yang saya inginkan. Sampai di satu titik saya berhenti. Saya sebenarnya hanya ingin melewatkan berbagai situasi dengan berbahagia. Tapi, saya sering merasa kebahagiaan itu dengan memiliki lebih. BAHAGIA ITU ADALAH RASA SYUKUR Hal sederhana yang saya pahami saat ini mengenai berbahagia adalah kebahagian berasal dari kesederhanaan. Sederhana dalam memiliki dan sederhana dalam mensyaratkan. Semakin sedikit syaratnya, semakin banyak hal-hal yang bisa membuat kita berbahagia. Seperti ketika saya melihat banyak rekan yang merasa begitu tertekan

Hi Travelers Keep Travelling

A cup of tea across my laptop, hi there! I wanna tell you my story here :3 John Mayer - Say What You Need to Say I've started everything all over again. Travelling through every memories around the city. I let my adventurous instinct to lead me wherever it wants. It's like memories tour. I went from campus this afternoon with my best friend, we rid our scootermatic together. Have some simple chit chat we haven't had yet. I feel so miss it. Everything is like happened a very long time ago. I crossed the same road that I've crossed everyday in the past. The "156 Traffic Light", you have to waiting before green in 156 seconds. I went straight, in the left side of the street I crossed kopitiam and Takigawa. Than I turned right, right before Maera Kaca Hotel. That was Ragil's ex-rent house. I've done so many things there. I also met Amaris Hotel, 'So this is Amaris Hotel' because I never know the exact location of it. No longer I met
