Living a boring life is a great life, tho!

A life of routine

A life where I don’t do anything interesting

When I am doing the same thing again and again.


The way I have spent my time has been very predictable. It has a pattern to it. From Monday to Friday, I get up > go to work > Attend meetings > Eat lunch > come back > Read the day’s news > Eat Dinner > Work out > Read > Talking to someone > Sleep.


Same thing. Again and again.


On weekends, I have a much freer schedule but parts of it involve going to caffe, watching movies, writing, reading and catching up on lost sleep.


I remember I talked to one of my friends saying that, “I think I live a boring life lately. But I don’t hate it.” My friend responded, “That’s okay, there’s nothing wrong with it.”


Life led me to something very normal and a little boring. I could try to change it, but it is the perfect life for me (right now). I do realize everybody’s life is boring. On the majority of days, the most interesting thing that can happen is a conversation. That’s the reason why I always try to talk to someone (mostly to friends) by calling them, (lol!) around 9 - 12 pm or late at night. And I am never upset if they call me at that time as well. Most people speak the truth when talking late at night because being tired, the brain does not think much and respond honestly.


And so for you, live the rest of your life properly. Live a boring & warming life like everyone else. If you need someone to talk with, do not ever hesitate to call your loved ones!

2019, You Taught Me Many Things! 💓Thank You💓 This year, 2019, has finally come to an end. This past year has truly been a year of growth and learning for me. I feel it is just like yesterday when I picked up my laptop to type Goodbye 2018, Hello 2019 back then in January. As 2019 comes to a close, I took a moment during these past few weeks to reflect on what has just happened and with that always comes a little reflection. Like many people, I have been thinking about all the things I did and learned this year and I am thankful for both, good and bad experiences. As  a type-A, plan-my-life-out, (actually there is almost nothing spontaneous about me and it is always something I have to consciously remind myself to do),  most often I am the person setting goals and working hard to achieve them. I worked hard for the things I love. I still haven't lost my dream of becoming an author or illustrator. I love writing and drawing. I am trying to make and create exciting char...

Feeling grateful and blessed

I got a random question from Instagram: How to become a great person? maybe this is an easy question, but after thinking about it, it turns out to be a bit difficult to answer. After thinking about it for a long time, my answer might be something like this, “I’m working on that myself! There’s no definition of being a great person. Everyone has different morals and povs. What I do is I just be the person I feel like being at this moment and if I make a mistake, then I learn from it and try not to repeat it, and eventually I'll be happy with the person that I was in this life." also, in my opinion, another thing that can be done to become a great person is to always be grateful. Oops, is this too deep? Sejak awal pandemi, sekitar Maret 2020, tuh gue gatau disentil apaan jadi sadar banget that I blessed with all the things I have now. Everything is enough. I won’t ask for more. Mau ngeliat temen-temen udah pada jauh di atas gue pun, gue udah di tahap, “ I’m genuinely happy for ...

UI-CREATES; It creates a long-lasting friendship and memories

Universitas Indonesia Credit Earning Program for Students Excursion to Saung Mang Udjo, Bandung Since being a buddy in early 2018, it has been a very important part of my college life. From that time my calendar each month works around the programs I could participate in, which made the best semester of my life. And this year, it happened again. I got a chance to be the buddy for another short course program. UI-CREATES or Universitas Indonesia Credit Earning Program for Students is a two or three-week short course program hosted by the International Office of Universitas Indonesia. By joining this program, students earn 3 credits (for two-week program) and 6 credits (for three-week program) after the completion.
