A Lesson [Never] Learned

Hi folks!
(Look how an introverted person talks to her imaginary friend)

Today is Sunday. Supposed to be the day full of sunbeam and such, I think. But not today and the other day and the other day before the other day, and nine days before today. Somebody says that the weather will be like this until February. I'm sick of rainy days and the gloomy effect it causes. I don't know, maybe I'm not in the good mood or my mood board is ruined by a single stupid, silly mistake.

I'm sorry for dragging you into this, folks.
I guess I've never learned a lesson.

which is…
stop being a control freak.

I have a huge huge huge talks with three friends yesterday in three different places, and I couldn't hold back my tears listening to their wise words. --- or maybe because I'm so fucked up so everything goes poetically wise? Again, I don't know.

A friend named X told me that,
"it's not entirely your fault to be a control freak. you're the oldest kid in the house and you need everything goes perfect -- or you'll be damned if it isn't. I mean, the first child has a responsibility toward his / her younger siblings. They tend to protect, caring, and (shit!) worrying. And sometimes it's too much. The eldest, also, tends to think that it's their faults if everything goes wrong."

But you know what, I even feel so damn tired being like that. I want to be less care, less protective, less in everything. Especially when my over-controlling behavior hurts someone so bad.

Though I have never learned anything at all. I lost people I loved because I was an over-controlling bitch.

And another friend of mine named O told me that,
"Your whining time is over. Now think about what your life is gonna be and what will you do with it. You may be hurt somebody, you ask for forgiveness, and if it's not granted, maybe he / she is not ready to accept your 'mistake' as 'a mistake'. Get over it, and be someone who sees a mistake is a mistake. Learn your lesson, and if you want to cry, cry now. Don't cry over months to ask someone to get back to you if he doesn't want it. Please, I'm begging you. This is the very last time you cry!" (Yes, he begged while I was sobbing).

I hate the process. I mean, once I've been thru this and the lesson never learned at all. Though maybe I'm not leveling up. I hate how I have to walk with head full of regrets and sorry, and words that have never been spoken (nicely). I hate being me sometimes.

And another (cute and pretty) friend of mine told me that,
"It's not easy to let go people who don't want you anymore. But you can't be cruel to them, by not letting them go. And also cruel to you, 'cause you follow your ego. I know it isn't easy, it isn't as smooth as I say this. You'll cry in you bed every night, wishing upon nothing that he will stay."

I've been thru a moment like this. I cried a lot, and was being a miserably skinny, self-tortured bitch. I was in that phase.

That's because I have never learned my lesson.

THE 2014 RECAP

Pulau Panjang, Kep. Seribu, November 2014

You might have read my 2014 resolution recap here. If you are wondering why I have recapped my resolution on July, the only answer because it was (partially) fulfilled. I thank God for His blessings for what I've achieved.

The sad thing is… I didn't achieve anything anymore after that. I didn't get the rest what I wished for 2014. But that's alright.

But, I had so many great times throughout the year.. I've been traveling (in group) to Kepulauan Seribu, which was fun and gave me so many lessons. And in 19 December I've gone to Balikpapan with my mom, which was her first flight ever. I even could see spark in her eyes (even though she was thrilled while the plane took off the ground xD)

My relationship is somehow fiery this year… So many ups and downs. But now I'm not into it. I don't want to talk about it right now.

My job is…. static at the end of the year. Oh my God. I know there's something wrong with me and all the jobdesc (that I had to carry by myself). But I really wish that I could make it great in 2015. I'm so friggin tired of being left behind.

In 2015, please God, let me BE the leader of my own. Let everybody knows my name without having me introducing myself.

Once again, another great year has passed. I'm so ready for 2015.
But first, let me make (an appropriate & well-prepared) new year's resolution.

Cheers,

Let's Tidy Up Our Eyebrows!


People (especially girls) asked me a lot of questions about "where did you got your eyebrow embroidered?" and my answer was always simple: no, it was not embroidered. I only use eyebrow pencil instead.

In fact, I don't have a good shape of eyebrows and it's pretty sparse. I've been struggling with making good eyebrows and I didn't go expert in one night. I've been experimenting about 5 years now, and I've received so many critics especially from my mom. One day I made my eyebrow bolder than the other because I was in rush, and my mom said, "look at your eyebrows! it's bigger than the other." thaaaaat is of course every girl's nightmare. lol

Isn't Really My Thing, But Now I'm Committed to It



Yes, sport.

I started exercising regularly since two months ago, the reason is not because of a growing trend today: all about gym and fitness things, including Muay Thai, Yoga, TRX, etc. which is you can see, it's now a lifestyle, after fixed-gear bike and running. You'll realize if you are Indonesian, we are very talkative people when some western stuffs branched out then we will follow BUT in relatively long time (telat gaul). Bahahaha!

I feel sorry for myself that I just realized that exercising is an important part of life, especially if you're working. Energy can be discharged in the workplace, including your brain. The brain constantly forced to work, resulting your body would feel so tired easily. That's why we always run out of energy for a brand new day (and we rather choose to sleep during holiday).
