SOCIETY

Last week, I met my old friend from the same University and she also someone that joined student exchange program with me in USM. Her name is Cut Mutia. We decided to meet at Lippo Puri Mall because that was the strategic place for both of us to meet. Not too far and not too close. I was glad meeting her after a long time because she was kind of introvert person. It was hard to contact her due to her personality who didn't like to reply someone's message. She enjoyed her time like all the time. Another reason why I was excited to meet her because we both have the same vision and mission about the future and we like to have kind of deep talk, talking about the future, the purpose of life, love life story, marriage, privilage thing, and many more.

After meeting her, I was fully reenergize and I was excited to start my own journey that I was scare of before. Besides, we reminiscing our moments when we were in Penang. We laughed a lot for stupid things that happened and we couldn't stop thinking about it. Oh I wish we could go back to the past.

First thing first, I told her about my love life story that I get dumped by someone. Oh.. we both like to read and watch kelascinta.com aka Lovable lady. if you don't know about relationship yet, I'm highly recommend you to watch their YouTube channel. It's really educate you about relationship well. What I like about her was, she never passive and said yes or no on something. She leaded someone and said "That's not how it works. You'd better do this.. etc." She gave solution, listened patiently, and supported. Besides she gave me an out of the box answer that I couldn't imagine before and that was what I needed in friendship thing.

As we walked to look for some clothes and went to several shops, she suddenly asked me, "What is your purpose of life?." Mine is sharing. I like to share thing but it's in something that makes people learn. I answered, mine is educating people because I like to be a lecturer in the future and that have to be achieved before I get married. She said she wanted to make a youtube channel about debate and asked me to joined and I was contented.

We walked around and stopped by in a place where there was a live music outside Mall. We didn't know about the band and we didn't really care at all because the point was we had a quality time. There were many things happened between us. She becomes a lady now, she shared her family's experienced, she gave me some tips, but one thing I know for sure that she always be a mature person whom I know.

One thing I realized, I rarely had such a deep talk with anyone else after such a long time. But having this kind of conversation made me felt satisfied.

Hello readers... first of all I wanted to say sorry because I just updated my post (Well I don't know whether you are my active readers or not but if you are wondering, I will explain it right here). I was kind of busy back then because I just moved to a new office and many things happened to myself. Sometimes I felt quite tired in holiday Geez, am I gettin older? Sometimes I filled it by having a quality time with myself, with my friends, or with my family. And.. I just realized that I didn't write my blog for three months! (what the heck Camel).

Alright enough for the excuses. I promise to myself that I will be more active to write right here once a month. 
See ya

THE COURAGE TO BE DISLIKED BOOK REVIEW

Beberapa waktu yang lalu, gue sempet liat postingan orang lain di instagram tentang buku - buku yang dia baca. Buku putih dengan warna font hitam merah dan cover yang simple menarik perhatian gue. Tanpa mikir panjang, gue mencari buku tersebut dan mencoba untuk membacanya. Hal yang pertama kali menarik perhatian gue adalah judul dari bukunya itu sendiri. Buku The Courage To Be Disliked merupakan salah satu buku favorit gue tentang psikologi dan kehidupan. Bacaannya ringan, dialognya berisi kata - kata yang jelas, contoh case yang disajikan juga sangat mencerminkan ke dalam kehidupan sehari - hari, dan buku ini merupakan buku dengan penjelasan yang paling masuk akal dari berbagai buku yang pernah gue baca, juga buku ini sangat membekas sehingga gue pun tidak sungkan untuk membacanya berulang - ulang. Walaupun agak begitu sulit untuk menerapkan beberapa teori dari buku tersebut ke dalam kehidupan sehari - hari, tapi gue selalu mencoba untuk melihat dari sudut pandang lain.  The Coura...

SOMETIMES WE ARE JUST TOO AFRAID

I have that one moment when I feel overwhelmed everytime I try to voice my opinion which I think there is nothing wrong with it. Sometimes I end up asking people again even after what I did. For example, my best friends. I ask them to validate my emotions and what I just did. Did I do something right? Were the things I did right? Am I overreacting? Is this the right thing for me to do? Do you think I should stay calm about it all? There are pros and cons to it and if it’s more towards the cons, I’ll feel upset, stressed, and overthinking. I vividly remember that my body feel exhausted, I cannot sleep in a peace, and my mind keep ruminating for certain things. Unfortunately, in Asian culture, most of us tend to be quiet about everything that happens in our lives. We have a feeling that if we try to speak up, there will be some people who will hate us and we overanalyze in our minds that people will look at us differently. That’s quite normal. However, let me stress this to you, there is...

EVERY SECOND COUNTS

Recently, a friend of mine had a discussion about a job with me. He said it was such a pity if we ended up to not work in a field where we were graduated. "What is the use of going to University for 4 years if I finally work in a place which is not related to my study?" This made me reflect about how I used to think back then. "I don't want to work if I'm not going to be a Public Relations Officer. Period." But hey that's totally fine. The truth is, you can get knowledge in anywhere. You don't even realize when you sit down on the train, listening to people's conversation. or when you watch a movie or youtube, or when you debated with your parents or partner. You absord those knowledge. Eventhough if it's just a little. "But what is knowledge? It is something that is everywhere. In my line of work, as a development professional, it is in every discussion, in every handshake, in every discipline, in every role and responsibility, in the ...
