things i learned as a 24 year old

 hello, everyone! if you're new here, this is the place that i always go to whenever i want to write about something that i like (notice a lot of posts about the movies and tv shows that i've watched) and when i want to just write down my thoughts that's been in my head too long. i've had this blog ever since i was in middle school, and i'm just now brave enough to share this with you guys. i hope after this, i can still think of this place as home.

since today is my birthday, i want to share with you all the things that i've learned in the past year, not as a form of bragging or anything, but just as a friend updating on what and where i have been mentally. without further ado, here are the things i've learned as a 24 year old:

1. that it's okay to be vulnerable, it's okay to open up about your anxiety and fear of (almost) everything to someone.

2. don't jump into conclusions, jumping into conclusions is the source of anxiety.

3. some people came into your life not to stay but just to "transit", and that's okay. let's just hope that we will help to take them to their next stop.

4. being in control of your future is hard when you've never been given the chance to make big decisions, but you gotta learn how to.

5. NEVER make fun of someone for the thing that they are passionate about.

6. run and cut off any sort of communications when you find yourself in a toxic situation, before it's too late.

7. it's okay to cry a lot, as long as you know why you're crying, don't listen to anyone who says that you're a crybaby, just cry if you feel like it.

8. backpains are PAINFUL and swimming is your saving grace.

9. it's true what people say, working out helps with your depression and any sort of mental health condition, just pick one sport to your liking.

10. go to therapy! really helps with changing your way of seeing life.

11. finding your personal style without following what's trending is very liberating.

12. sometimes to finish when the time is right is MUCH better than finishing quick.

13. that it's okay to think that maybe, in this life, romantic love is not for me, and it's okay because romantic love isn't the only type of love that exists.

14. but it's also okay, to be longing for love and to be loved, even if you've already made peace with the previous point.

15. true happiness come and go, allow yourself to be happy when it comes.


on that note, i'm going to end this post here. thank you so much for making the time to check out this post. again, you're very welcome to check out other posts, but as i mentioned earlier, i use this blog to write about the things that i like, so some cringes may find your way to you. thank you, and see you (or not, it's okay) on another post!

2022 : A Review

 Hello, everyone! Since it's already the end of the year, I'm gonna do my annual post of year review. To be honest, I feel like 2022 was the year that I'm actually the happiest after a while. There were some downs toward the end of the year, but I'm good most of the time, and here's my review in detail, Academic : 9/10 I GRADUATED! I finally finished my study in college and I actually managed to fulfil my goal of graduating in 2022. It's probably gonna be my last section for academic, if I decide not to get my master's degree, but Class of 2022, baby! Family : 7/10 I feel like this year isn't that much of a difference, compared to 2021. But I did have a little bit of an argument with my mom regarding on what I want to do after I graduated college, I think that it's a normal thing to argue about. I still talk a lot about pop culture to my first sister and helped my second sister with her online business, a lot more actually since I have more free time...

close to you | dewnanon au | chapter 4

DEW the engagement announcement was a few months ago, and during those months, nanon and dew, they've decided to have our relationship in private. it was better for them because having a relationship between yourselves were already complicated, let alone having the public being involved. they really had the best time of their lives going on all type of dates while getting to know each other more. you name it, going on late night drives, karaoke sessions, restaurants hopping, staying at nanon's apartment and put on a movie (though they ended up making out more than actually watching the movie), even a short getaway to japan, they've done it all. but lately, they hadn't been meeting nor had they been seeing eachother's face. dew was busy helping running his family's hotel chain, while nanon was busy with planning and preparing for his physical album launch event.  according to nanon, it would be some type of showcase concert but in a smaller scale, since he himsel...

2024 : A Review

 hello, everyone! it's the last day of 2024 here, and i'm writing this on the last hours of 2024. you know what that means, yes, a year review. if i have to say, 2024 isn't that much better than 2023 but we'll see, maybe some aspects will shock me. Academic Life : 7,5/10 there's not many updates from the academic life. i've got good grades last semester, even though it felt like that semester was about to kill me, it actually didn't so i was so grateful that i managed to finish last semester well. i also started writing my master's thesis this year. it is soooooo fucking hard you guys especially when both your professors don't really get your topic so they just let me do whatever i want as long as it followed the regulations on writing master's thesis. but for someone who always second guess everything, it's hard. i need someone to guide me, to give me precise instructions on what to do. it has been really hard to look for sources for my topi...
