Day 29 - Self Quarantine

Hi.

So yesterday I finally fixed that leaky jet spray I have in my toilet. I felt this satisfaction because I just reached another level of living alone: fixing things without the help of a plumber. I mean as long as the damage was not big and I can fix it just by watching a YouTube videos, I think I can handle it.

Ah... I was so happy yesterday.

For a couple of days my package from internet shopping have been arriving and I had to go downstairs to pick them up (almost every day). Then yesterday when I picked an Innisfree moisturizer that I bought almost a week ago, I saw the cats near my tower and I was wondering whether they've eaten or not. Usually someone must've fed them, but looking at this situation, not many people go out just to feed them, I think. So I went back to my place and grabbed the cat dry food I've been keeping for months and I fed the cats. Surprisingly, there were a lot of cats turned up that day and they all ate what I gave. I was so happy but I forgot to bring my phone so no photos. Aah but that's okay.

I've been using this Slowly app, to send letters and find a new pen pal, but I haven't replied any of the letters because of the overwhelming situation I felt. But I finally gathered up my energy and replied about 3 letters. Life is getting better for me though..

And yup, tomorrow I have to go to the office and I hope the train is not packed. I've seen updates from Twitter where people protested the new schedule from the Commuter Line company to adjust with this social distancing situation. Instead of keeping people to stand 6 feet away, because of the new schedule and their policy to check everyone's temperature before entering the train station, people were lining up and I saw that they stood closely to each other.

Pfft

amazing weekend

I went to Kota Tua and Monas last Friday with my housemates. I actually doubted that I could go there considering that I still had remaining undone tasks that had to be done. but since I've had the busiest week ever in May (meetings, assignments..), I decided to leave it and grab the rarest chance ever, spending time with my housemates, since we have this unmatched schedule. so we went to Kota Tua and we took a lot (trust me, A LOT) of photos with Laura's camera ;) and when the twilight touched this part of Indonesia, we set our feet to trans jakarta shelter and headed to Monas. even when hadn't touch the front gate of Monas, we already took so many pictures! hahaha you can imagine when a bunch of girls holding a camera.. we just can't hold the passion of taking pictures.. lol when we finally went back to our house, I immediately took a bath, and reached my bed to sleep because I was extremely exhausted, but happy! :D the next day, on Saturday morning, my friend asked...

A Story of Unsuccessful Romance: Chapter 1

 I Saw You Across The Classroom I would've never thought that the moment I saw him for the first time across our classroom was the moment that I would remember for the longest time. I was just a 14 year old kid who like pretty people with pretty eyes. Little did I know I would think over him over the years.. I got accepted to one of reputable public high school in my city, barely. My name was at the bottom of selection results, like, the last 5 people who got in to this school. Nevertheless, I was excited, of course. It was my dream to be a student here since it would help me path my way to go to reputable universities in the future. Back then, this school had two special programs, the acceleration program where you could study in high school for two years, and the international program - where you (were supposed to) learn all the subjects in English. I just finished my orientation and I was initially studying at grade X (ten) - 3. My mom, who was a high school teacher herself in a...

これを書き留めておく必要があります。そうしないと、気持ちが溜まってしまいます。

 日本を離れるとき、心が痛みました。自分に誓ったのは、日本の更新情報を見ないということです。 事実、私はまだ友達の投稿や日本に関する更新情報を見ていました。傷ついた気持ちからそう言ったのです。それは私の人生で最も素晴らしい時期であり、終わらなければなりませんでした。 時々SNSを開きたくないと感じることがありました。彼らがまだ日本で生活を楽しんでいるのを見て、私は現実に戻らなければなりませんでした。悲しんでいましたが、前に進まなければなりませんでした 時々、まだそこで知り合った人たちに連絡を取り、何かを言ったり、彼らの近況を尋ねたりしていました。 しかし、もはや共通の話題がないため、会話は行き詰まりました。その後、彼らがグループチャットで話しているのを見て、取り残された感じがしました。少し奇妙な感じがしました。大げさに言えば、疎外された感じがしました。 ありがたいことに、あるいは悲しいことに、私には日課がありました。日本やそこにいるみんなのことを考えなくてすむような日課です。しかし、一人でいるとき、突然思いがよぎり、また悲しくなることがありました。まるで心に突き刺さる痛みのように。 時には、彼らの中の何人かがまだ個人的にメッセージを送ってきました。不思議なことに、忘れられていないという感謝の気持ちがあります。まだ彼らの生活の一部であり、冗談を言い合えるということです。 私は内向的な性格で、何よりも平和を選びます。彼らが連絡を取りにくいなら、おそらく私からは連絡しません。終わったものは終わったのです。良い時期を過ごしましたし、それを台無しにすることはありません。 ただ、1年前、2年前に起きたことについての通知を見たとき、それはあまり助けにはならないですね。それが私の人生だったのか、と思ってしまいます。 When I was about to leave Japan, my heart ached. I swore to myself that I would not look at any updates from Japan. The fact is, I still saw my friends' posts and updates about Japan. I said those things because I felt hurt. It was t...
