#25: An Inspiration (behind the 11th picture)

Day 25 of 30 days writing challenge

An Inspiration (behind the 11th picture)

As a part in succeeding social distancing and upgrading survival skill, I've been doing personal culinary improvement these few months. It might be far from perfect cuisine, but it surely brought personal satisfaction. 

The story behind this picture is it's the first time ever I made a home-made steak (not really aesthetic, but tasted quite nice actually hehehe) so I took a shot of it. Preferably by cooking this, I'm saving about £12 (around idr 230k) or so from dining out--also the fact we can't dine out due to extended PSBB, only take away. Got the materials through online fresh marketplace. Though my blood pressure is high these couple of days, I'm still eating this. Lol. It's more like a food to the soul. 

Anyways I put a lot of my pandemic culinary experience on my Instagram, along with many of Miko's pics. One of my friends said that lately Instagram is filled with tiktok videos. Well, maybe it's because people aren't really in Instagram hype anymore, and not much post things anymore, only put stories. Nonetheless I found that Instagram has more positive vibes in it (compared to Tiktok nowadays) if you follow people or accounts that synch with your hobbies or values. It seemed that the show-off bunch moved their base to tiktok. Lol. The worst of Instagram moved to Tiktok. 

This challenge has only 5 more days to go...and I skipped a day. (So maybe, I'm kinda failed it? Lol). But I'm continuing anyway. I don't know, this is the first time ever I'm quite consistent in writing for almost everyday, and sometimes it's hard to find the words to say (or in this case, to write).

How to Ghibli?

That time of the year, again. Why can't life be more like Ghibli's aesthetics? It has been a while for me to be in my 30s, and soon I will be turning 40. What will one expect when one turns into a 40-year-old woman?  Why can't life be like Ghibli's slice of life feature films? Why can't we find ideal love like in those movies? 3 years ago today I still can't imagine that I finally found out that my (back then) spouse was a serial cheater, a swinger, and an avid liar. My whole life was crumbled, and my mind went crazy, like literally mad (will tell this someday when I'm ready). And briefly after that, I met a random guy, got married again in such a short time, and have a baby not long after. Back then, no one really cares about how I feel inside, my messed up mind is still there up until now. So, what to do?

#11: Siblings

 Day 11 of 30 days writing challenge. Siblings You either love 'em unconditionally or hate them occasionally . They share the same blood as you, they're your first friends. And it's not uncommon that you spent your days fighting and quarrelling with them at day and get along again at night. Your parents still mad at you but you already reconciliate with them. A brother and a sister As a middle child, I always stuck in between. My brother and my sister both have strong personalities. When they're fighting it's like a fierceful battle between Dragon Slaying Sabre VS Heavenly Sword --minus maybe they're both a bit antagonistic , none really chivalry. Brother My big bro is an amazing abstract learner. Why I said "abstract"? It's because he never did enjoy the typical learning practices in formal education. But when we're younger, different methods weren't there for children with superb or different qualities. Anyways, he's an avid lear...

Ikhtiar

Ingin sekedar berbagi cerita tentang perjalanan hidup sampai mendapatkan yang dinanti-nanti.  Alhamdulillah dua tahun slowdown karena pandemi membawa berkah. Setahun setelah menikah, kami dianugerahi seorang putri yang sangat kami sayangi. Perjalanan  mendapatkannya bisa dibilang tidak mudah. Akumulasi semua pengalaman sebelumnya, banyak rintangan yang dihadapi. Namun syukurlah Allah memberikan amanah kepada kami sekeluarga.  Berkah Habatussaudah Ternyata hadits Rasulullah tentang keutamaan Habatussaudah atau jinten hitam sebagai obat segala penyakit* benar adanya. Jinten hitam ini adalah faktor pembeda utama, selain suami yang sangat sabar dan waktu di rumah yang lebih panjang karena work from home (wfh) . Setelah menikah dengan suami yang penyabar ini, saya disarankan oleh adik saya untuk berikhtiar dengan cara mengkonsumsi 7 (tujuh) butir Habatussaudah/jinten hitam yang sudah disangrai dan madu setiap hari. Cukup tujuh butir, tidak perlu banyak-banyak karena Habatuss...
