#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?

#9: Happiness

  Day 9 of 30 days writing challenge. Happiness I am everything but happy right now, I'm sorry. Not really in the mood to talk about happiness so today we'll be off topic. Not happy now. Just heard a heartbreaking news about work-related stuff, and the feel of rejection is similar with the one that I felt during my apprenticeship year, when I heard that my Studio Coordinator gave me an E so I have to do another year again (8 hours credits do it another year, he hated me gut and my window shape , so yeah I'm screwed). Always thought that drawing buildings isn't my thing, but I stuck there nonetheless. Come to think of it, my undergrad years were full of sh*t and sadness, there's always this lecturer that hated your design. And you felt like crap). I cried back then, on the rooftop of RRI building where my project management took place. I'm not always bright, I've been through hell. And it's not sweet. Anyways, I'm not unfamiliar with this kind of f...

#4: Places on My List

Day 4 of  30 days writing challenge. Places on My List Been obsessed with these places, and wished the pandemic soon to be over so that we can go there and enjoy life and love to the fullest. Cambodia I don't know why, been dreaming on going to Siem Reap  for about two years now. The thoughts of going there seemed exquisitely charming and the old temples--although some said similar to what we have in Jogja --look mysterious.  Ancient stone faces of Bayon temple, Angkor, Cambodia.  Photo: iStock (https://www.traveller.com.au/siem-reap-cambodia-things-to-do-expert-tips-from-an-expat-h1ju19) Maybe i'm a bit influenced by Tomb Raider and Indiana Jones , always love those kinds of movies (and games). I remember when I was a child, there's this TV show about treasure-hunt and stuff (I forgot the title, sorry) where the main character flew a seaplane in a tropical island looking for treasures, some in ancient ruins. I also preoccupied by One Piece , a superb manga created ...
