Catching Up!

It's 2022 now.

This blog somehow becomes the witness of my growth. I started this blog back in 2012, thus.. I'm already on blogger for 10 years. This blog lasts longer than my relationship, ever!

10 years have passed.. I was 15 yo, and now I'll be turning 25 this December. what do I do now? Am I the same old Nita? Am I better? Do I become stranger to some people?

The answer is.... My life gets boring, if you ask. I'm living a typical adult life; working, working, working, working, and working. Oh, almost forget. I also become a mother of one, a daughter named Hagia. So, it's like balancing life among working, be a mother, socializing, and most of the time.. resting.

I become more quite than I was in college or freshgrad days. I become anti-social. I enjoy being alone instead of get trap around people. I enjoy drinking my matcha-latte, while reading book.. or just simply scrolling through my Instagram or TikTok. I enjoy to have exercise once in awhile. I enjoy my busy schedule as an employee and also my role as a mom. I think, my life is just so imperfectly perfect.

Am I still ambitious?

In some cases, I am. I still have plenty agendas to do, but afraid to tell it to many people, because, well... I'm afraid that my dreams won't come true. I think, that thought is actually part of my anxious mind.

But anyway, the point is... I am blessed, and I love my life the way it is now.

I can't believe that I'm truly an adult now.

Let's talk about love, again. My posts were mostly talked about love, the young love that was so passionate, that brought so many broken hearts. I do realize now that love is actually very calming... if you meet the right person in the right time.

Love was not about the butterflies in your stomach.

Or, screaming and yelling to each other.

Or, ignore your partner's need.

Or, let your partner always feel alone.

Or, saying mean things to your partner.

Or, throwing knife at your partner.

Or, leaving your partner behind.

Love is being present to your partner at any circumstances.

Love is being proud of your partner when they do something that makes them happy.

Love is showing-off to people that you love your partner so much, that you may hurt people just to save your loved ones.

Love is trying to help your partner with your best attempt.

Love is when you sacrifice your happiness to see your partner happiness.

Love is to learn how to surrender, to lower your ego.

Love is unrequited, like a mother-daughter bond.

Love is like I love Hagia.

Another thing... Love means privacy, not secrecy. Tehee-hehee.

The Vortex

A year ago Or Tonight Or Tomorrow. You are still the art... To me. Knowing, Meeting, Caring, Loving, Sensing, are like a gift from God for me to feel. It ain't about what you did in return. It ain't about how long that I am here. It ain't about what you think and what I think, or what someone thinks. It is purely because you already absorb every energy that I have. You are the vortex of the most beautiful art. You regain energy from every eyes that adore you. You slowly stole it. And now it is just me in here... as dead as the corpse. Wanting to feel again, but too afraid to be absorbed... again. Lol, this is just me... babling about you.

My Journey With Dogs

Kali ini gue akan menulis tentang persahabatan antara manusia dengan binatang. Terkadang (sering kali malah), binatang itu lebih berkemanusiaan daripada manusia itu sendiri. Keluarga gue adalah pecinta binatang. Dari jaman Eyang, Om, Tante, Mama, hingga gue... kami semua pecinta binatang. Segala jenis binatang pernah kami pelihara seperti, burung hantu, angsa, burung warna-warni (nggak tau namanya apa), kucing, monyet, hamster, dan paling sering... anjing. Ya, gue adalah keluarga muslim yang memelihara anjing. Tulisan ini hanya akan gue fokuskan pada pro dan kontra muslim memelihara anjing. Bisa dikatakan, anjing adalah bagian dari kehidupan gue sejak kecil. Dulu gue punya anjing namanya Pedro, campuran chow-chow dan anjing kampung. Nggak ingat sifatnya seperti apa, tapi Mama selalu cerita kalau Pedro adalah anjing terpintar dan tersetia yang pernah kami miliki. Di salah satu ceritanya, dulu gue pernah menunggangi Pedro selayaknya dia adalah kuda. Seja...

Dear You, 2020

Halo, apa kabar? Mengapa kamu menjauh?  Saya salah apa? Apakah saya membuatmu risih? Apakah kamu membenci saya? Kamu terasa sangat jauh sekarang, tanpa aku bisa raih. Kita memang tidak saling menggenggam, namun aku tahu kita saling merasa. Ingin sekali saya bertanya berbagai hal kepadamu, termasuk pertanyaan-pertanyaan tadi. Saya harap kamu baik-baik saja, hidup dengan bahagia. Apakah mungkin, kamu seperti itu karena merasa kehilangan diri saya? Apakah mungkin, kamu sebenarnya memahami diri saya yang sesungguhnya, namun merasa saya mulai berubah? Apakah mungkin, kamu merasa asing dengan diri saya yang sekarang? Jika memang demikian, saya mulai menyadari sudah betapa jauhnya saya tersesat. Saya pun merasa asing dengan diri sendiri. Rasanya saya sudah melangkah jauh, dan saya takut sudah terlalu terlambat untuk kembali. Kamu menyadari perubahan saya sejak lama, dan kamu merasa asing dengan diri saya. Saya ingin meminta maaf, jika diizinkan. Saya ingin kembali berada di hidup kamu, ji...

(Sedikit) Curhat

Alhamdulillah, 2017 is soon to be over! Rasanya bersyukur dan senang banget ternyata mayoritas Resolusi 2017 yang ditulis di akhir tahun 2016 kemarin sudah jadi kenyataan. Kehidupan perkuliahan itu sulit, serius. Apapun jurusan kamu, semua ada ups and downs nya. Gue yang sudah hampir menjadi mahasiswa angkatan tua, ngerasain banget jenuh-jenuhnya. Kasarnya, kalau bisa nikah sama pengusaha kaya raya mending langsung nikah, deh. Tapi... hidup itu nggak sepenuhnya kaya drama Korea. Let it flow, nikmati saja arusnya. Gue yang sekarang di semester 5, semakin mendengar desas-desus tentang diri gue sendiri di kampus. "Cuma modal muka", "dia nggak pinter, cuma dia deketin dosen biar nilai bagus", "gue gasuka sama Nita", dan tetek-bengek lainnya. Normal, namanya hidup itu penuh pro dan kontra. Sebenarnya gue sudah mendengar ini sejak gue di semester 1, sih, tapi makin ke sini semakin kelihatan siapa saja orang-orangnya. Bahkan, beberapa orang sudah membuat gue k...

True Colors

Lagu ini udah ada sejak gue kecil. Gue lupa siapa penyanyi aslinya, tapi yang jelas lagu ini udah di cover banyak orang. Sejak kecil gue seriiiiing banget dengerin lagu ini dimana-mana. Dan gue suka sama lagu ini. Sejak gue masih belom bisa A - B - C, Bahasa Indonesia aja masih ngaco apalagi ngerti Bahasa Inggris, gue suka lagu ini. Lagu ini tuh sesuatu. Dan gue pun akhirnya udah download lagu ini, tapi versi yang dinyanyiin Glee Cast. Terus finally juga udah tau maksud dari lagu ini. Here's the Lyric... You with the sad eyes Don't be discouraged Oh, I realize It's hard to take courage In a world full of people You can lose sight of it all And the darkness inside you Can make you feel so small But I see your true colors Shining through I see your true colors And that's why I love you So don't be afraid to let them show Your true colors True colors Are beautiful like a rainbow Show me a smile then Don't be unhappy Can't remember when I last saw...
