25

Should've written this on my birthday, September 5th but never mind, more than a month doesn't reduce or increase my age, does it?

25 years may not be a big number for some people (who are older than me, ofc). But for an adult at my age, it's been a pretty diverse and twisty quarter of life so far.

How come. Right when I was about 25 years old, I got a lot of things happening in me: earning enough income for me to be able to save and feel quite financially secure, being able to buy my own laptop, getting a job opportunity (although not my dream job), I lost my aunt suddenly which forced me to attend all funeral arrangement and saw my grandmother, mother and aunt cry bitterly for it, even the welcoming ceremony (aqeekah) for my birth also took place when I was 25 years old (I didn't expect it to take so long).

There are too many things that make me feel more traumatized. Sometimes when I can't control my emotions, all these events make me feel angry and curse to God: why can't I forget and move on with my life without having to be overshadowed by that trauma?
But who doesn't feel the same way? everyone must be traumatized by something and everyone has to grow up to face that reality.

To my mom, dad, uda, uni, who always support and never stop helping me. Who is always there when I need, always guides me so I don't get lost, so I always feel at home. Since the first day I live in this world. If there is a word that means more than thank you, I will give it to you.

In addition, I am also very grateful to have met good people who opened the door to my sustenance so that now I can save and feel a little secure in finances. Those who gave me the opportunity, are the people that I will never forget, those who made me able to save from zero to this day, those who gave me a home when I was lost without direction. Thank you and I am very grateful for your presence.

Finally, thanks to Allah, even though I am not an obedient servant, You are always by my side.

Product Review: Tong Tji Tematik varian Matcha Latte

Masih dalam rangka mengganti kopi jadi greentea, pencarian matcha instan masih terus dilakukan agar terbentuknya list greentea/matcha favorit based on my opinion. *cailah* Next product that I'll review is Tong Tji Tematik varian Matcha Latte. Siapa sih yang gak tau Tong Tji. Salah satu merk teh terkenal yang namanya sudah tidak asing lagi ini sekarang mengeluarkan produk minuman latte instan dengan berbagai varian dan salah satunya adalah varian matcha latte.  Sesuai dengan slogannya (Berasa ngafe!), rasa matcha latte dari Tematik ini sangat mirip dengan rasa matcha latte di cafe atau kedai minum lainnya. Dengan kandungan ekstrak teh hijau sebanyak 3.24%, rasa dari matcha latte ini cenderung manis dan terasa banget krimernya. But this one won't be on my list. Udah coba w sajikan hangat, dingin, dan di tambah espresso, but it still same. It didn't suit my taste. Karena rasa manisnya yang dominan, rasa matcha-nya jadi kurang terasa disini. And that's not kind of matcha th...

Hot Chamomile Tea

  Tuesday, December 6th, 2022 Starting the day with productive activities in the morning: laundry!. Accompanied by the rain and thunder that pour in the Coconut Ivory (intentionally translate the name lol) area, this morning's laundry activities were the same as usual. After 3 months of being abroad, laundry is one of the activities that I look forward to the most. Because it helps distract my mind off stressful things. Very pleasant. After I finished laundry and the rain also stop, I did another productive activity: looking for candidates for boarding houses. Why? As a newly unemployed person, I need to reduce expenses and consider looking for a cheaper boarding house. I call it one of the tips for survival hahaha. After visiting the 3 candidates, it turns out that all the rooms are on the 4th floor lol. There is a price for quality: the room is on the top floor (quite far and steep) , quite small in size, and a little dirty. After much consideration, I finally decided not to move...

Anyone? Nobody?

Back in the 8th grade, my English teacher used to give us daily task. One of the task is the listening section where she'll gave a form of paper contains with lyrics from random song and with some blank space on it. We have listen to the song and fill the blank part of the song. I vividly remember that this was one of my favorite subject and I still keep the bundle of paper from back then. Well, one of the song that my teacher gave us to solve is from Karen Young - Nobody's Child. Back then, I have no clue about the meaning of this song and just humming as the song played. Now after knowing the meaning of the song (which quiet sorrow), I'm kinda feel sorry for the old me who used to singing this song happily and with no concern at al. At the age of growing up, I began to face many problems in life: starting from the difficulty of finding a job, the difficulty of adjusting to new things but what must be done to survive, rearranging the hearts and minds that have been heavily...
