Day 4 – Your dream job

I don’t have an exact dream job per se, but anything that involves strategy with a team, coming up with new ideas, and formulating something that has the ability to come to life and make an impact on people is something that I’m really inclined to do. Of course if this were a superficial question I would answer with being a cover band singer or part of an a capella girl group because that’s something that’s kind of a dream to me but I never really banked on for myself. Many people ask me why I don’t turn singing into a career. I am not that confident to bank on it, honestly. It’s the same reason why I didn’t choose I.T. as a major in college. Things I enjoy doing and feel like I’ve got enough skills for it, but never enough to make a living out of. I don’t know. Maybe I’m just a little less confident than how people perceive me when it comes to those fields.

Day 3 – Someone you’re grateful for

My mom. Can’t even stress enough. In between being a superwoman, a tough cookie, and a cancer survivor.. she is the best mother I could ever ask for. It’s weird how now that I am way older it’s harder for me to part with my parents. That every emotion I feel is more magnified now when it comes to my relationship with them compared to when I was much younger. Now I don’t want to disappoint them, as much as possible I want to be always be there for them as much as they have provided me this much while growing up. Some may think I am too attached (even though my dad is far away), but a great relationship with your parents is something that should not be taken for granted.

Day 2 – A song that makes you happy

You I’m Thinking Of by Relish. This song has always been part of my happy list but there are moments that I completely forget about it then suddenly, it starts playing in my head again. Reminds me so much of car rides going to school back in Jakarta when my favorite radio station would play this almost daily. This track definitely plays a pivotal role in my Jakarta life. I don’t even know any other songs from this band but the moment I hear this it automatically gives me good vibes.

The Sunday Currently, v13

In addition to my blog challenge, I shouldn’t be shelving my usual series. FEELING Pretty chill. Compared to the past weeks, this is what I absolutely need. I am also getting accustomed to weekends without alcohol and partying a lot more compared to last year and I feel like it’s going in the right direction, without all the FOMO and everything. I woke up really late today though, like way past noon (hence the post below) and I sorta felt guilty about that. But then again this weekend has been all about sleeping in because last week was such a busy week for me. LISTENING My August playlist on Spotify! I try and have a playlist each month but I was so caught up with health issues last July so I only got to do another one for August. EATING Kiamoy from Aji Ichiban! That stuff can get so addicting to me. WATCHING Little Mix’s acoustic performance of Black Magic. This has never been a secret for a few years now that it’s always been …

Day 1 – What you had for breakfast

Well isn’t it a bit late for this now? I woke up at at almost 1pm (yay for Sundays) and as of this writing my sister is cooking meatloaf and we’re waiting for the sushi platter delivery from Azabu via Foodpanda because it’s 50% off today! I know I’m not supposed to be doing this, skipping meals and eating at weird hours considering I just got out of the hospital the past week because of gastritis but I didn’t wake up on time. On weekdays I do better!
