Meeting the Soul: Nina

Perihal Hal-Hal di bawah Ekspektasi: Mencari Ibrah, lalu ikuti. 

Hari ini menjadi pertemuan pertama dengan Nina--si ENFP yang selalu membuka lipatan emosi menjadi atlas navigasi. 

Sebenarnya, kalau hanya sekedar momen pertemuan pertama mungkin tidak akan ku abadikan di blog. Namun kisahnya sungguh memiliki banyak ibrah untuk direnungi, menjadi pegangan untuk pertemuan ukhuwah selanjutnya.

Sedari mula mempersiapkan bekal, perjalanan, hingga pertemuan; banyak makna yang perlu diulik dan diingat dalam waktu lama. 

Kenapa? Karena agenda hari itu semuanya tidak sesuai rencana. 

Accepting Things You Cannot Control

Wah, akhir-akhir ini banyak sekali belajar mengenai resapan penerimaan pada hal-hal yang ada diluar kendali.  Belajar menerima situasi yang diluar kontrol diri dalam mengupayakan.  

The Art of Forgiving (and Be Forgiven)

Hidup itu ngga selamanya di atas. 

Hari ini mungkin kita terdzalimi, 

tapi besok bisa jadi kita yg dzalim.. 

Maka maafkanlah, sebagaimana kita ingin dimaafkan.. 

Al jazaa min jinsil ‘amal

Balasan sesuai dg amal perbuatannya

Tea Time: Seduhan a la Winter Tea

Semenjak teman terdekat mengajak untuk kolaborasi produk tehnya aku jadi makin bersemangat untuk ekplorasi tisane. Kali ini seduhan tehnya mengingatkan pada tema musim dingin. Aku sendiri terpesona dengan paduan warnanya loh. Merdu sekali masyaallah~ Hm, seperti apa?  

Iya. Nampak rame, ya? Hahaha. 

DIY: Eye Glasses Case from Fabric

Today I made an eye-glasses case from cotton fabric. Why in the world? Simply, because I wanna take a great care of my stuff again. Stop taking things for granted and learn to treasure them. 

I would also love it if the stuffs that I have cud stay by my side for a very long time. 

Just like a pair of eye glasses in brown, I had brownie (the name of my glasses) since my uni year in 4th semester.  I still use it till today. Unfortunately, due to my ignorant self the glass of it's lens start disappearing..  

Then, let the work begins! 

Here how things are going on in my room during the re-creating process of my cotton case

..and after everything.. 

Things I Wish I had Known as College Student

Things I wish I had known when I was a freshmen, or a uni student, at least.

When I was at uni, I didn't get any tip on how to fully unlock my career potential and skill as an individual. I was in organization but did not eventually grasp the essential. I was in quite good in class but still had no idea where I should go next. I was in holiday but I did not gain anything.

I'll share the key to unlock the power of the mundane opportunity that uni students have. Everyone has this opportunity, but not everyone could press it tightly. Just like how 24/7 is distributed for anyone, but the progress is really personal.

Without further ado, lets check them up.

Sewing is My Therapy

As usual: a random post with no head, body or tail.

I wanna rattle about sewing. I have been completely besotted into sewing since I was kid. I made a collection of handmade daily tiny goods from scratch. I sewn them all by hand. 

However, I do realise that my sewing skill isnt something innate. The eagerness has been there all the time, but the talent. Fortunately, once I am into something I am totally mesmerized into it. No one can stop me except myself.

So the progress keeps continuing until today. Numerous cloth and fabrics have suffered from trials and error moments that they couldnt escape from xD

Until I can show my better development now. Alhamdulillah. 

Does it meand I am a good sewer now? Def not. I am aiming higher as I want it from the start. I am going to attend a professional class of sewing and taylorism. 

The thing is, once you know the satisfaction of creating hand made thing, you wont able to stop. 

Cz happiness is handmade ♥
