The Ice to My Cream

Hi!

Been a hectic week, was in a project that froze myself and I'm just too tired. After feeling so lost, finally, our team made it yesterday to take a very last shoot. What I know when I'm not in a good mood, there are 3 things that will bring my mood back to the highest sky: Ice cream, coffee, and cookies. Yes, all that. 

Ice cream is my number one booster. I can eat a liter a day for myself if I want, jk, but kinda true. 

Oh My Gelato

There's a gelato shop nearby campus and it becomes my favorite spot instantly! It's called Legato Gelato. My favorite of all time is, of course, dark chocolate. My other favorites are almond & regal, strawberry cheesecake, cookies & cream, thai tea, vanilla, and also caramel mint. Why so many? I actually LOVE all the flavors they provided and tend to be wishy-washy when I have to pick a scoop or two. 

Legato is my most visited place these past months, especially with my friends. And I always ask my special ones to try Legato at least once because you just have to know that their gelato is GOOD. Also, as a plus, they offer a quite reasonable price for it.

Yesterday my mates asked me to eat gelato after a long day, and you must've known the answer already. I always happy when it come to this lovable dessert, I can even eat it as my breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And even when I'm sick, ice cream is the cure.

They were by my side also these past months, not just as a professional partner, but also a buddy to share. From watching in a tiny cinema nearby the campus, eating gelato, or just a late night chat after campus. Well, they're not always by my side, but I know I can hang on them whenever I need them.

Thank you guys for coloring my days.

Hidden Tale

Here's a quote that I quoted from Maya Angelou if I'm not mistaken:

"A woman's heart must be so hidden in God, that a man has to seek Him to find her."

And probably this quote is also relatable:

"So, if you are too tired to speak, sit next to me, because I, too, am fluent in silence." - R. Arnold

Also, this song:

Mercusuar - Kunto Aji

Have no idea about what am I talking about? Well, it's a hidden tale, figure out yourself.

Clueless

I'm young and clueless.

I thought I would never cry for something that has been happening since forever, but I am now. It feels surreal, but what everyone know that it is real. The fog is haunting my mind and make it blurry for some time. You know, we can't really choose our life because it has been destined for us. 

Controversial. I've to figure out that I'm not that ordinary. Well, maybe I am, but things that build this young woman or things behind her, are not. However, this world would never understand. There will always people who are mean to judge, no matter how good we're trying to be. They got the freedom to judge anyways. I know I shouldn't let 'em control me, but still..

It's just a strange feeling, and I just don't know how to explode it out of me. It feels like no one would understand, I don't know who's the right one for me to talk about this. What I know is, that God would never sleep.

QS 2: 45

And seek help through patience and prayer, and indeed, it is difficult (hard) except for the humble-minded

Ada Apa #4 | Dengarkan

Suara-suara di luar diri mulai riuh; berkicau tentang wacana-wacana yang diyakini. Tentang yang seharusnya dilakukan, siapa yang pantas, di mana harus berlabuh, atau sekadar mencoba mengingatkan. 

Kabar bukan lagi suatu penantian, tetapi penentu akan langkah yang nanti dijalankan. Bila kita berusaha berpaling dan tak mengindahkan yang berada di bagian terdalam diri, di mana kelak akan menemukan? 

Saya yakin, undangan untuk berbuat kebaikan datangnya dari hati. Namun, sering pula luput bagi saya karena terlalu banyak berpikir. Saya sadar, saya harus lebih sering mendengarkan suara-suara dari hati, bagian terdalam diri yang murni. 

Untuk yang sibuk mencari, terutama ke luar diri, sudahkah mencoba untuk bertanya pada hati? Atau sekadar mencoba mendengarkannya terlebih dahulu. Mungkin, ini masih mungkin, kamu temukan jawaban atas apa yang kamu cari, karena tidak ada yang mengenal diri kita jauh lebih baik daripada diri kita sendiri. 

Apa yang kamu dengar?
