Rewriting My Legacy

It's been 6 years since the last time I wrote my last post. Wuh~  I feel so proud of the young me and I just thought hmm...I was pretty good at giving my point on this blog. Pretty sharp! Well, now I'm a 30 years old female. I feel slightly old. LOL.. Anyway I kind of regret it that I wasn't able to write some posts 6 years ago. I simply forgot that I have a blog and I forgot which e-mail and password that I used to use. Anyway, I'll do my best from now on to write better and share moments here. Let's start with some information update. I am 30 years old now..I have mentioned about it earlier. How it feels like being 30 years old. Alot of things have changed. My body (I used to be pretty, cute, and positive haha just kidding) now I kind of feel like I'm mature, more serious about things, and I gain so much weight. Well..it's still concider average/normal weight based on BMI but my stamina is so much lower these days. And the second update is that I am marrie...

I have a new friend from German. He is a nice man. I enjoy our chats, despite our age  differences, languages, and cultures, I really like being friends with him. He is almost healed from a surgery, he was working in elderly house but stopped ever since his arm badly had injured.  So I would love to make some of presents for him and his wife. These are some of the pictures that I have taken. A pop art postcard and crochets bracelets made by me. I have sent them to him. And I am glad he already received them and very happy about it.

Late Post - Traveling

Image
I want to share some of the pictures I took awhile ago. I have been to Bali (in Indonesia), Malaysia, and Singapore on 2014, and  Anyer beach (4 hours from the capital city of  Jakarta, in Indonesia) on early 2015. I like traveling, I enjoy seeing things. New things. So here it is some of the pictures that I could find on my cellphone. at Anyer beach, 2015 at Tanah Lot, Bali, 2014 at Kuta Beach, Bali, 2014 at Bedugul, Bali, 2014 Enjoying breakfast at HJH Maimunah Restaurant & Catering at Pisang Rd., Singapore, 2014.  (I went to Singapore with my mom's coworkers and they are moeslems so it's important to them to get Halal food. And in HJH Maimunah, they are all Halal.) The other picture I was at Sentosa Island/Merlion Park. Unfortunately I could not trace the photos that I took when I went to Malaysia. That's to bad.

My Bucket Lists

Things I Enjoy To Do

Do you have a hobby or things that you enjoy to do? I have some. Don't you think it's very nice to do the things you enjoy the most, and even better when your hobby could possibly make someone's life a little better. Here are the lists of the things I enjoy to do. I like to make accesories from wire, it's really fun to create a long plain wire into something different like a ring, bracelet, and even a pair of earrings. You can use your imagination and it's always nice to see it when it's done. I collected some postcards, I know for a 24 years old lady this hobby is kind of odd but I really love it! So far I have collected 6 postcards from Czech Republic, Malaysia, New Zealand, Ukraine, Russia, and Romania. I was so excited when the mailman came. One of the women who had received a postcard from me, she told me that the postcard was her favorite that she was looking for that kind of postcard whole her life. Really nice huh?  :-D If you want to get some...

Why I Made This Blog

It's been a while since the last time I posting on my blog. I made this blog because I know my life as a human is so short but I don't want to live this world with nothing to give but all of me. I want to share my love, support, and knowledge through this blog. Though I'm still young, I hope what I'm doing here somehow could give you inspiration. Pardon my English, I'm not a native English speaker but I'll try my best. Have a nice day! Love, An :)

Different But We Complete Each Other

A few weeks ago I learned how to play guitar. Thankfully Christa my very good friend patiently taught me how. I like to try everything new. I don't have difficulty memorizing chords, but it's difficult for me to play barre chords. I need a good technique to playing it well. But since it's holiday I stop practising because I don't have guitar, and she is busy. It is fun to learn new things, yesterday I asked my brother to teach me Pencak Silat/Silat(Self Defense Techniques) too. I like it. My friend and my brother are good teachers. I think everyone has their own talents at something. Whole these things remind me some Bible verses. We are definitely different but we can share whatever we have, our talents, time, energy, smile, love. Let's do whatever we can cheerfully and embrace our differences. Never stop improving ourselves.  :-D We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man's gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to...

Maybe you want to visit this place too. :-) A Lake & Rice Fields at Tanjung Raya  The Beach name is Pantai Air Manis which means Sweet Water Beach.

My First Day as a Teacher :)

Image
Yesterday I went to "The Jungle" (it's actually a pool) with the kids and their parents from our local church. I took some pictures, it was my first day as a training teacher. Yes I was very excited. I love kids! well actually I get along very well with kids. I always know that my passion is to teach. I love being around the children..now I know why Jesus loves them very much. They are so alive! they like to know everything and learned new things and they always full of excitement. I hope I can be a good teacher for them. I will learn so much from them too.

God in another form

Image
Since two days ago I always see the sunset. But I'm not alone, I have always been accompanied by a sparrow. They perched in front of the neighbor's house antenna. I felt like they are enjoying the sunset with me. I imagine that was God in another form as a sparrows.hehe..

What Is Your Love Language?

I took sometime to take a quiz from  http://www.5lovelanguages.com/  and I found that my top love language are Quality Time and Acts Of Service. It's very common if someone has two love languages. You can try the quiz to get to know yourself better, to know your love language. When you know someone's love language it  will help you to understand them better and treat them right.  :)

Life

Today I went out looking for a book and took some pictures of Jakarta in the afternoon. Today Jakarta was so cloudy and rain for awhile. I saw these postcards at the bookstore and I can't help myself so I bought some postcards too. I have sent 5 postcards to my postcrossing friends, they live in Russia, German, and Taiwan. One postcrosser from German already received my postcard like two weeks ago. I think the rest are just missing on the way. :( Tomorrow I'm having class and I'm going to teach my junior basic Japanese language. I hope I can teach her well. I teached a high school student before but I teached maths at that time. I like teaching. Maybe I'm gonna be a teacher one day..I don't know yet. Right now I'm just enjoying life. I live..I breath..I do something..I just wanna be usefull. I'm kinda like it..life.. The more I'm active and do something for others, I feel happy. Share to the world your energy, your dreams, your ideas.Smile..Sing..Danc...

Have you spent a little time with Jesus today?

Today I was so busy typing from morning to the evening at home. Then when I was in the public transportation to the campus for taking night classes. Suddenly my friend texting and told me there's no class for today. I was like..what?? It felt like all that I have done in vain..and so I decided to go back home. When I got home, I was laying on the floor thinking about what happened today. I realized I was too busy and some bible verses just came into my head. And so I prayed. God is never too busy for us. And why did we acting like "oh..sorry God I have no time for you. I have so many things to do. Can we talk later God, please?" We pushed ourselves so hard, but what we've got? All just vain in the end. I like quality time with Jesus. Do you ever had a bf/gf? or maybe you're having a bf/gf now. You know that feeling..you want to talk to them and giving your love, spending time together. That's what Jesus feels too. He loves listening to you, talking t...

5 cm

I used to share my laptop with my brothers. And sometimes when I'm doing stuff with my laptop they asked a minutes because they wanted to check FB, games, or copy and paste downloads to their cellphones. I remember the other day my little brother asked for a minutes, so I gave my laptop to him and he said "Sis, please give me some space.." I said "..ok" so I moved. Suddenly he laughed and spoke to me "Yeah..you just move 5 cm from my side." then I realized what I was doing and I laughed too. Sometimes I did silly things without realizing it. Sometimes I lose my mind.

For Heaven is Real

I was watching TV and there was a news about a presenter who died in such a young age. He died and left 3 amazing kids and a wife. All his friends said beautiful things about him. And yes he was a believer. One of his friend who was there before his dead told to media, before he died he said "Lord Jesus..please safe me". That made me thinking..noone knows when will you die except God. Yes I don't know when will I die or how. But one thing I know..I wanna be where Jesus is. I do believe heaven is real, I do believe God exists, and for all my life I saw His faithfulness to me, His love to me and so many beautiful wonderful grace He did for me. If  today I can write it on my blog, this is just another grace from Him. I can breath.. I eat delicious food today. God has done a lot for me. What have I done for Him? the truth not so much.. I'm wondering how many people will come to my funeral? Will they say good things about me? Will they miss me? I can see..toda...

Grown Up

Everytime I read that words..Grown Up. It makes my skin crawl..well, I know grown up is a good thing. I like the idea of grown up..it means being mature and take 100% responsibility. I can imagine doing whatever I likes..I might will make mistakes but noone to blame but myself. I've always been playing on the safe side..after graduated..I really want to do 100 random things that I've never done. I can see how much my parents wanting me to get 'real job' after  graduated and then marry with someone, having kids ..ah you know what else. But wait..this is my life..(Ok, this is His life) and I have been thinking about this..what I'm gonna do after graduation. I have a lot on my mind. -Traveling Indonesia -Voluntering somewhere in the small village -Being a teacher, teach local kids -Making crafting and help local women to make handycraft -Learning to dance -Making lyric and make someone to sing it -Learning new languages, cultures, customs -Ad...
