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.

Masa Putih-Biru

Left - Right: Nadia, Wiwit, Salsa, Elyta, Me Ohhh.... SMPN 11 Jakarta, betapa aku merindukanmu sekarang!!!! Khususnya keempat orang ini yang gokilnya ampun-ampunan. Keempat orang yang suka tuker-tukeran bekal bareng, tempat curhat bareng, tempat nyontek (eh), tempat main Truth or Dare bareng, tempat dimana semua anaknya punya imajinasi tinggi karena seneng baca novel, tempat apa-apa deh pokoknya. Kalian inget ngga, waktu pelajaran Bahasa Indonesia materi musikalisasi puisi, kelompok lain masih rempong nyiapin ini-itu, sementara kita udah beres dan main truth or dare . Terus gue dare Elyta untuk bilang gini ke Bu Wiwik di depan kelas, "Bu.... dingin.... Saya butuh kehangatan, peluk dong..." And she did it without doubt. :") Terus waktu kita latihan dirumah sepupu gue sampe maghrib, kalian emang yang dateng ke rumah gue, tapi gue nya ngaret 2 jam gara-gara ambil kaca mata. :( Class Meeting juga sesuatu banget kalo kita semua lengkap. Kita nyanyi-nyanyi lagunya ...

The Passion and Soul of a Dreamer

I think tonight it's the perfect time to talk about... dream, passion, and soul. As a teenage girl, it's normal to be wishy-washy isn't it? When I was just a little girl I ask my mother what will I be Will I be pretty, will I be rich? Here's what she said to me: "Que sera, sera.. whatever will be, will be..." I bet y'all know this song. A song that my mom and I used to sing. Since I was a little, kalo ada yang nanya, "Mau jadi apa?" Jawabannya... "Designer!" A fashion designer, I mean. They, especially my Mom, doubt in me. They doubt of my dream. But somehow, I believe in it. Be a fashion designer is my dream, my passion, and my soul. I wanna failed in it, and I wanna raised from it. These are some Indonesian designer that I adore: 1. Harry Darsono. OMG. Dikenal dari stylenya yang adi busana. 2. Tex Saverio. Known as the Alexander McQueen-nya Indonesia. 3. Rafi Ridwan. He proves that every human has talent behind our im...

What is Klepto?

What is Klepto? Knownly as Kleptomania , is the inability to refrain from the urge to steal items for reasons other than personal use or financial gain. Kleptomania is presently classified in psychiatry as an impulse control disorder . Alternatively, some of the main characteristics of the disorder, which consist of recurring intrusion feelings, an inability to resist the urge to steal, and a release of pressure following the theft, suggest that kleptomania could be an obsessive-compulsive spectrum disorder , although this is disputed. Bla... Bla... Bla... HAAH, whatever itu gue copas dari Wikipedia. Hehe -_- Hmm, from my point of view...  Klepto itu adalah sebuah kebiasaan (penyakit, hama, parasit) untuk ngambil barang orang lain tanpa seijin orang tsb. My Sister once told me, kalo Klepto itu belum tentu dilakukan oleh orang yang tidak mampu, malah yang punya villa di setiap negara pun bisa jadi kena issue ini.  Kleptomania is so annoying... They're j...

The Poem of a Lover Girl

In the crowded place full of strangers, Seek my loving soul, it carries no angers. Stay true to your heart, though it's hard to tame. Deep inside you know I'm the one your soul will aim. Let me be your core. Otherwise we'll regret it forever more. Take the chance, break the wall. Listen to our heart, may this is the call. The longing feeling that we care, Time has passed so long, I can't bear. Throw away your fear, I'll wait, stand still in here. Let's fill the blank page. Don't lock me in the cage. Pull me closer to your gravity. This heart can bewray with your key. Two souls kiss in union, Like a sacred communion. "Till death do us part," we said. Linked hand, no light of love ever faded. *writing this as I listen to The 1975 - About You & Taylor Swift - Red*

Dream is NOT a Dream (I hope).

Hmm, do you ever think about your dreams? I mean.. Not a dream when you sleep and your mind is walking around in Dreamland. It's about your future. Many people asked me the same question. "What do you wanna be?" Maybe when we're a little, randomly we answer it like.... "An astronaut," "A pilot!" or like "A model!", "A Doctor", "A scientist." But, we're growing up. We have to think deeper than before. We have to think the risks. The example is me. I was dreaming to be a person who can make a huge fashion-show, and design all that dresses. I didn't know what is that until someday I knew that's called a designer. But I don't really care what designer I am. A fashion designer, or a web designer, or something with that titles. As long as people say it as a designer, as long as my imagination and my creativity can grow, I wanna be a designer.  Then I was dreaming to be an architect too. M...
