Everything You Have Ever Wanted Is Happening and It's Here

-

Leaving Jakarta broke my heart. Moving back in with my parents nearly killed me. Ok, I’m a drama queen, forgive me. Life could be so much worse, I get it.

So, I have a one-way ticket and a hope and a dream, what more do I need? 

I intentionally don’t want to over think my decision for several reasons. One: I was prone to nervous breakdowns and panic attacks which I really didn't need. Two: I was trying to be more open-minded and go-with-the-flow, and I didn't plan out every last detail before I arrived. 

Deep inside me I have an urge to see a whole other side of the country I haven’t explored before. and suddenly you realize you’re at the exact age that seemed so far away just five years ago.

I bought a plane ticket to Europe years ago. I got lost wandering all of the streets. I travel the world and read lots of new books. Why can't I leave Jakarta then?

You’re free to do what you want with your life. The problem is, that can be quite the responsibility, to live your life the way you want to, rather than they way you are expected to. Especially if that means taking a big jump. and especially when that jump may feel like a free fall. 

I need to prove to myself that I will be ok living somewhere different, that I can try something out of my comfort zone. Don’t change your journey so that it matches someone else's. We need to walk different paths so the whole world can be explored. Revel in the differences. And enjoy where you are.

Here. Right here.

Nyaman Villa: The Comfortable One

Do you think you will ever not find your favorite place ever again? Where you always stay at one place every time you visit Bali? A place where every body knows your name? A place where you always have the same breakfast, lunch or dinner? It might be nice to a certain point where you think you need a break. I used to have one villa that keeps me coming back and forth, before I finally find Nyaman Villa. Located in Seminyak, in a secluded small road, you will never think you will find a convinced comfort with an excellent service. Entitled butler will accompany you during check in and show you everything existing in the villa. Trust me, you will fall in love at the first sight.  We were staying at a two bedrooms villa, completed with a private pool that you can jump in at anytime, a living room, a dining table with a fully equipped kitchen and a wonderful bathroom with a bathtub to sooth your tiring day of sightseeing. Oh, not to mention the ipod deck wher...

Nyaman. Itu Saja. Bukan Apa-Apa.

Nyaman. Itu Saja. Bukan lain yang dicari.  Nyaman. Itu Saja. Bukan berlebih yang diminta.  Bahagia saya tidak sama dengan bahagiamu. Bahagia saya adalah rasa nyaman. Saat saya merasa nyaman di suatu tempat, pada suatu hal, dengan seseorang, saya akan bahagia. Nyaman itu mutlak bagi saya. Sama halnya saat kita merasa lebih nyaman saat naik taxi dibandingkan berada di dalam sebuah bis kota. Tapi, apakah nyaman itu bisa dikondisikan? If I say everything is relative, we will never end this discussion. But yeah, let's just agree to disagree.  Nyaman di tempat kerja itu hal yang penting untuk saya. Kalau rasa nyaman itu sudah hilang, sebaiknya tinggalkan. If you feel like staying but you don't feel comfortable, what for? The money? Trust me, it leads you to no where. Show some respect for yourself. Nyaman bersama teman, itu juga penting untuk saya. Why would you bother making friends with plastics if you are not one. Why would dress up to impress if you don...

My girls were blew me away with a day I will never forget!!! I know they are very creative people, but I don’t expect them to be “TOO CREATIVE”, and they all keep saying that they are busy. At first I was a bit devastated that none of my bridesmaid was seemed planning something, but they did it behind my back. (Ladies, I type this with my middle finger). (they added me after the hen party) I wasn’t sure what was going on, but Jaqueline insisted to meet her today at the Senayan City Mall. No clue, no sign, I was just being a good friend cause she said she wanted to tell me something. We ordered drinks, starts chatting…  suddenly I saw my crazy girls Nita, Cumi, Otty, Pitong, Cinta & Lina entering the coffee shop. I was pretty shock and smell something fishy. I can tell from their eyes. (that's me smelling something fishy) Then they pull out 2 big plastic bags and start the magic.  HERE ARE THE FUN ATTIRE ...
