Traversing life

Pernah ga sih berasa hidup kok padet banget? Mulai bangun pagi, buka hp, cek whatsapp emails and sosmed. Abis itu mengumpulkan niat untuk bangun pagi yang susah karena otak udah keburu enjoy main hp. Pas cek jam, eh udah kesiangan kudu buruan mandi dan siap-siap ngantor. Kalo dulu wfo masih ada proses persiapan menuju kantor, nah kalo wfh? Bangun tidur ku terus meeting. Edan.  Nyampe di kantor. Dateng bukan langsung kerja, banyak intermezzonya. Denger gosip kanan kiri, set up mood buat kerja, bikin kopi, refill air mineral, baru deh beneran kerja. Buka laptop, loading dulu. Bukan, bukan laptopnya yang loading. Otaknya yang loading, kudu ngapain dulu. Bingung. Either bingung saking banyaknya yang kudu dikerjain, atau bingung karena masih denial gamau kerjain apa yang harus dikerjain.  Setelah mulai kerja, fokus bentar eh tau2 kedistract banyak hal. Bisa karena buka whatsapp web dan malah balesin chat2 ga penting. Bisa karena kebanyakan buka tab terus malah browsing yang lain. A...

This past years come with so many ups and downs. Many surprising things (happy or sad) happened in my life . Thus, still in the spirit of new year I gonna write a letter to myself. Mostly thank you notes, I guess.  From @marloesdevee instagram Ika Nindyas,  You are such an amazing human being.  Thank you for all the effort and struggle to stay alive.   Stay healthy and avoid doing stupid things. No kidding, especially during this pandemics. So many uncertainties comes up. Many people dies. You're lucky enough to still breathing and alive. Always be grateful and don't waste it.  Thank you for putting yourself on the first place.  You are your own company. Back then, you will unconsciously put other's before yourself. Now you've much wiser and know your limit. Putting yourself first doesn't make you a selfish bitch. It might hurt people because you've changed, but hey look at you. You grow, you bloom, you become a better version of you. Loving yourself f...

Liburan akhir tahun lalu aku cukup lay low leyeh-leyeh aja di rumah. Ngapain? Nonton series, drakor, dan baca buku. Selain itu, akhir tahun saatnya tukar telkomsel poin. Biasanya sih bisa dituker voucher gramedia ya. Tapi kok tahun ini poin aku ga nyampe bisa dituker banyak voucher, gramed yaudah lah kita tuker ke hal yang lebih berfaedah. Apakah itu? Purchase voucher langganan disney plus 6 bulan. Kenapa akhirnya memutuskan nuker ke disneyplus? Karena kemaren mau nonton mulan (padahal sampe sekarang belom juga ditonton). Malah akhirnya nyangkut nonton film Soul, yang akhir tahun lalu tayang di disney plus.  Kata orang-orang di sosmed sih, filmnya sangat relatable untuk manusia quarter life crisis macam kita ini. Worth to try, akhirnya kita coba nonton film ini.Tanpa ekspektasi apapun karena kadang film disney suka out of the box bikin hangat hatinya.  Film Soul ini adalah film animasi Disney yang rilis di akhir tahun 2020. Film ini berkisah tentang perjalanan hidup Joe G...

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ika (@ikanindyas) In the past 3 years, I've been starting a new journey of going inside . I have much more time to have an honest deep talk with myself, understand what am I feeling, and learn to be a good company for myself. Weird? I don't know. Maybe it's the time for me to finally taking a step back to focus on myself more and going inside before facing the world and going outside.  So what did I do during the journey of going inside?  1. Journaling  Just like the younger version of myself writing diary, but it's upgraded version. Not just writing what did I do today, but more into how am I feeling, what's in my mind, how i overcome things, and so much things to write. Journaling is one of therapeutic activities when I'm not feeling well. When I'm angry, write it out. When I'm sad, write it out. When I'm overwhelmed, write it out. There are times when I feel like i wanna get mad at ...
