This week, I want to share one of the inspirational videos that I found: “What Does God Say About Destiny?”. The speaker, Henny Kristianus, is an amazing, kick-ass woman and a pastor. If you’re a free thinker, you may take it as ‘the Universe’. Or if you have a different religion, you may take it as the god that you worship. The purpose of me writing this post is because I feel the message is worth sharing. As the video is in Indonesian, I will share some parts that I feel are interesting. I hope this week’s blog post could motivate, enlighten or benefit you. Destiny: The hidden power believed…

How to Spice Up Your Lockdown Weekend
Weekend? What weekend? Ok, we may not be in a strict lockdown anymore. But with working from home for almost one year, plus the interstate travel ban (in Malaysia), the weekend feels like any other day. Nothing special, except that we don’t need to work. What about you? Do you feel the same? Recently, I found my enthusiasm for the weekend back and I feel it’s a good idea to share the tricks ^ ^ Lockdown Weekend Tips #1: Take Social Media Break every Friday Actually, I found out about this trick thanks to the Lent season. 40 Days before Easter, Catholics and Christians will fast to commemorate the day…

Turning Thirty
I turned thirty last week. Finally, this petite girl is thirty! I should make sure that I keep petite and not gain a lot of weight during MCO 2.0 (Movement Control Order) hahaha… Originally, I planned to celebrate it with my family at the newly-opened Maria’s Signature at KLCC as they’re having a Buy-1-Free-1 Wagyu promotion. Alas, our prime minister announced MCO 2.0 a few days before my big day. However, I feel grateful and blessed that I and the ones I loved are healthy. Furthermore, it would be my first (and hopefully, the last) birthday during the pandemic. I have a story to tell to young people when I…

Thank You 2020, You’ve Been a Blessing
This year, nobody can escape the impact of the arrival of Covid-19. As you may have read in the news, some have it very tough, some not so, and the rest may be even richer than before (hint: Zoom, Amazon, the 1% society). I myself find the year 2020 a blessing. Compared to the lockdown and no travel this year, I feel that God opened the floodgate of blessings to me. I’m sorry if this isn’t the case for you… I treat my blog as a diary, hence I always write a yearly review as the last post of the year. Blessed 2020 — Career I landed a new job…

I’m Building Proper Toilets for Children This Christmas. Will You Join Me?

How to Keep Motivated Until the End of the Year
I can’t wait for the end of the year. How many of you wish for the same? I can’t wait to welcome the Ox Year in 2021, with the hope of better (hardworking) days ahead. I’m not a very superstitious person, but this year 2020 in Chinese 2+0+2+0 = 4 = death, bad luck. Surely, there are things that I feel grateful for. But we still have four and a half months until the end of the year. What could keep us motivated and carry on? I found mine, and I’m gonna share them with you in this blog post. It may or may not work for you, but hey!…

I Hope This Makes You Feel Better
Yesterday wasn’t one of the best days of my life, but there was a mixed feeling. At the same time, I had a lot of things to be grateful for! So, I had an idea to write this post. Hopefully, it makes you feel better 🙂 Llama, Not Drama Llamas and alpacas, I love them! They’re so cuddly and stare at you with an innocent expression. This cute pencil case with a giant zipper made me smile after I failed my exam. It’s like a reminder not to sweat the small stuff or dwell on negative feelings, especially for something that you can fix. Also, when you’re surrounded by people…
