Officially : Dua puluh… delapan tahun

cake

Wah-wah., nggak kerasa October aja. You know what? Itu pertanda kalo saya ini udah tua, usia udah berkurang huhuuhu. Seperti biasanya, tetep disyukuri. Terimakasih ya Allah sudah dikasih kesempatan hidup hingga bisa masih bernafas sampai detik ini.
Setaon belakangan ini saya rangkum ke dalam beberapa kategori (ala-ala zod**k):
1. Kesehatan
Alhamdulillah Allah berikan saya kesehatan yang luar biasa. Jarang sakit (semogaa nggak ya), Olahraga juga lumayan intens. Saya ngambil kelas Yoga, aktif selama 3 bulan dan sudah jarang lagi karena kesibukan di kantor, rutin sit up di kamar sampe sampe matras udah terpampang cantik di bawah bed.Selain itu, pola makan sudah cukup teratur. Hampir tiap pagi minum air jahe panas (kadang campur ama teh), salad sayur, dan pernah juga jalani diet GM. But in fact, turunnya nggak banyak huhuhu.. meskipun lingkar jeans udah longgaran dikit. Alhamdulillah pokoknya.
2. Asmara
Well, berbicara asmara..pasti nggak ada hubungan yang mulus. Kadang bertengkar ama Bae, kadang bete , galao, kzl , rindu, saling cela abis itu akur lagi, hangout lagi. Thanks Bae masih ada di hati. Harapanku yah pastinya langgeng, tetap percaya setia dan kelak bisa jadi penda……*tibatibakebelet.
3. Keuangan
Alhamdulillah masih diberi rejeki dariNya. Pekerjaan makin ribet seiring gaji nambah hhahahaa.Dinas luar jadi hiburan tersendiri. Banyak syukurnya, banyak orang baik diluar sana. Banyak yang ngasih rejeki (bukan hanya dalam bentuk materi,tapi tenaga, ilmu, dll). Harapan saya semoga Allah tetap memberi rejeki yang tidak putus-putus, perlindungan dalam bekerja.
Eniwe beydewei,Di hari ulangtahun saya, bertepatan dengan hari Minggu yang kebetulan waktu itu saya berada di Kamboja (Siem Reap). Sebenarnya kalau dipikir-pikir ,rayainnya di dua negara soalnya masih tanggal yang sama sekitar pukul 10 malam saya ada di Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh) *pameeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr (ala mama Dedeh). Ulang tahun yang cukup istimewa karena saya berquality time-an  dengan tante saya (dah seperti Ibu kandung sendiri), dengan menikmati satu kue bolu kecil dengan tulisan Happy Birthday (bahasa Khmer) di atasnya. Sederhana tapi daleemmm *sumur kali ah.
It was a great feeling habisin waktu dengan orang yang berarti banget dalam hidup lo.Selama ini saya jalan-jalannya banyakan ama temen,jarang ama keluarga. This birthday trip is so special for me and for my Ibu. Special thanks juga buat pacar kesayangan yang selalu look out of me selama perjalanan saya. I heart you as I heart Cambodia :*
See? Tuhan memang baik.

26 Life lessons I’ve learned by age 26

Before clicking 12 am 7 October 2016:

I’m on the precipice of turning 27-year-old and I were to be perfectly honest with you, I’m having a bit (just a bit, but’ it’s fine) of a panic attack about it. If you were to take a look at my life thus far, any human being who’s frontal lobe is in tact would say that I’ve done a pretty solid job. I have an amazing job, amazing friends, and professionally? Well, simply put: I love what I do. Seriously!

Yet, something keeps bothering me; like a little voice that keeps saying “you’re going to be 27, you’re going to be 27.” And really, I’ve lived over a quarter of a century and what have I accomplished? I haven’t traveled around the world, I haven’t saved anyone from anything, I haven’t been charitable or be a wife of someone or have a mini- library in my own home. I haven’t really done anything other than what’s expected.

Deli-very-cious cake from my bestfriend
Deli-very-cious cake from my bestfriend

“Alhamdulillah O’ Allah, my the only one Almighty, my crush. Today, I am 27 years old. Thank you for all the breath , the health, and all of smallest things that you give to me. Grant me still the strength to face all of your challenges. Please help me in the days of the year ahead that I may make the best year for me yet. Ya Allah, please forgive me, for all my shortcomings. Forgive me for all the chances that I failed to take & for all the opportunities that I missed this year..”

I would write 26 things what I have learned in past twelve months of being twenty-SIX. Here is what I think:

  1. Expect little things. Always be grateful .I started to pray every day when I wake up in the morning.
  2.  Love myself much. Start to not to compare myself to others. Completely stop. Don’t care about what anyone thinks about me. I’ve tried this years ago,frankly.
  3. More caring and sharing. Active in some social charities.
  4. Drink more water every day.
  5. Lots of time saying “NO”
  6. Found a new hobby. Sketching,doodling. I kinda loveit and look forward to doing each week.
  7. Be an auntie is a great experience. My very first nephew cheered me up a lot.
  8. I cannot force anyone to like me.
  9. Serious about the relationship with bae. More patience, wiser, and control my temper.I realized that all relationships take time, effort and understanding but having the right partner can make life 1000x better. I choose my partner carefully, really carefully.
  10. My circle inner became less.
  11. Read more books (not only novels ):P
  12. Respect about TIME. Be punctual than the last year
  13. Expect nothing in return for the things I do for others.
  14. Learn something new every day. I learn some languages. I learned how to make decadent meals for myself in the weekend.I read more cocoa articles/magazines. LOL
  15. Pray more and more (such as before going to work or when my computer screen is on)
  16. Good at handling stress. ( O yea)
  17. Be able to admit when I’m wrong /Apologize as soon as I realize I’m in the wrong
  18. Get enough sleep.
  19. Do nice things to others.Such as give up my seat on the busway to an elderly person.
  20. Treating someone respectfully does not guarantee equal treatment from them.
  21. Have an emergency fund. I have an uniqe bottle to save my money (after I worked overtime)
  22. Get a new job sometimes horrible. But, it gives me  an opportunity to learn something about myself or develop new skills Even the worst boss can teach me something important. It could be how to deal with difficult people, expactriats or so on.
  23. Sometimes I still be selfish, but it’s okay, right? hhaaa
  24. More confidence and my communication skills was much better.
  25. Always be and be positive.
  26. Live life to the fullest. No matter who a person is, what they are currently doing, how much money they have in the bank, and so on, everyone can start living life to the fullest.
