Welcome 2023



Welcome to 2023!

The first day of 2023, I decided to write part of my story which I may have also alluded to in previous posts.

At the end of 2022 since I decided to live alone in a new city, there have been many new experiences, both bad experiences and pleasant experiences during the last 3 months of 2022. In the previous post it may have been described that I had mostly bad experiences. But apparently I forgot to be grateful for the pleasant experiences that also happened in my life.

Was given the opportunity to work in the city I wanted, my sister's wedding, decent first salary, visiting new places, taking various kinds of public transportation, news of my sister's pregnancy, resigning from work, visiting relatives in another city, visiting siblings in the same city, witnessing world cup 2022 with strangers, coming home late at night (not for visiting indecent places) to attend New Year's events near where I live.

The thing that always makes me sad while living alone is that I can't witness the growth and development of my sister's pregnancy and Aim's growth and development. Whenever someone asks if I want to go back "home", I always answer: no, with my current condition, I still don't deserve to go home. The consequence that I had to bear when I decided to move was that I had to fend for myself and when I came back "home" I had to make my parents and family proud.

To celebrate the new year this time I spent my time attending events at Kelapa Gading Mall, watching the performances of several artists and fireworks displays. Because my cellphone battery ran out, I had to walk home from Kelapa Gading Mall to the boarding house one night. Another new experience lol. I also met Kak Ida and her child and got tickets at a discounted price because of it.

Even though I have gone through many things and regretted it, I must remain grateful and always strengthen myself for everything that is happening now and what will happen to me tomorrow. Hopefully in 2023 I can get a new job, stay healthy and be a better person for myself and the people around me.

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...
