Stories, experiences, and feelings in this journey of life.
Here’s where I write about random stuff, which I can’t put under the other categories I’ve made. So this is kinda miscellaneous.
As someone who loves to fangirl my favorite actors/singers/anime/etc. in peace, I try my best not to be involved in any fan wars. I understand that the bigger the actor/singer/anime/etc. is, it is more likely to have more people joining the fandom, and thus it’s possible to have more “toxic” fans. But, well, before we…
I’m not a K-Pop fan per se so I don’t know much about Korean music, boybands, girlbands, singers, etc. I don’t really watch K-dramas or K-movies either, except when it’s of my fav actors or when somehow I happened to watch them and fell in love with the stories 😊 However, I do have some…

Recently I watched a movie and dorama that has this story where the characters send a letter to themselves, whether in the past or in the future. Well, I knew I posted about one of them already in one of my old posts (here!), and I won’t post about them here either, but maybe later,…

Personally I don’t agree with this. I even think it’s kinda ridiculous. First of all, not everyone in the country is Muslim…
When I was asked to speak in the “Scholarship Hunting: Exploring the world through scholarship” seminar, the committee requested me to encourage the participants so that they could feel motivated in applying for a scholarship to pursue their study abroad at the end of the event. I felt – and still feel – “dilemmatic” 🙈😅 Here…
April 21 is celebrated as “Kartini Day” in Indonesia to commemorate the birthday of – and to honor – R.A. Kartini, one of Indonesian Heroines who fought for women’s equal opportunity for education. The other day I was invited to share my experience and to speak in one of the events that celebrated it. I…
