One of the best birthdays of my life

 As I promised before, two posts this month because I have to talk about my birthday, right? The title said "One of the best birthdays of my life". I hope this is the correct title. My 23rd birthday is one of the best birthdays I've ever had. I'm so thankful that God gives me a happy feeling on that day. It started by a birthday wish from one of my precious friends. He called to wish me. I expected that but I'm still surprised that he remembers. He just made a better start of my day :) I met Catherine, my former co-worker because she asked me to come. I'm so glad that we're still keep in touch. I felt so appreciated when she wished me "happy birthday" and also was kind enough to give me a present and pocket money. Oh God, Please protect her, grant her strength and may You shower her with joy and happiness. She deserves the world. 

I received a lot of warm wishes from my friends and I felt so so blessed and grateful for them. This year was even meaningful because my sweet friends sent me some birthday gifts. I was unexpecting any of these. Ya Allah, they are so kind and I really need to repay them. I need to give the love. I can't be the one who always receiving love. On 13th September, Ati's present arrived at my doorstep. She gave me a stunningly beautiful bookmark! I'm currently using it and am so happy with the gift. It was a thoughtful gift! The next day, a birthday surprise from Syasya, my best friend. She gave me a very gorgeous shawl. I cannot wait to put it on my head. The shawl is a branded one and I feel scared to wear it honestly. I feel like I don't deserve her kindness. Let's improve myself so that I can be a better friend for my friends too! Finally, this is so unexpected. Nina gifted me sunflowers! I was surprised. Nina has always been a good friend to me and I made some mistakes. I hope we can be more understanding of each other in the future. Glad, we are still friends because I still need her. 

I love all my friends and I don't want our friendships over. There are some friendships that ended maybe because it is meant to be that way. As long as I can protect the friendship that I still have, I want to protect it. But, I also don't want to be hard on myself. If the person don't feel the same, I should openly let the person go. Because this is life. I was wrong about being alone is better than be with people. Just because some people can be disappointing, I can't let the judgement affected all people. I'm still lacking somewhere and I hope I can be better and giving love to people instead of receiving love all the time. May God eases this journey. I want to be better and do better. Amin.

My first wedding invitation + devastating news

Based on the title, yes, I went to my friend's wedding! Actually, I was surprised that I did. I faced a lot of problems before the D-day such as transportation and many other concerns. Alhamdulillah, God made it easier for me. So, how was it? It was a memorable day. We were so awkward when we first step into the place. Then, we spotted our friend looked so beautiful in her wedding gown. She and the groom were in a photography session so we decided to find a place to sit and eat. She approached us as we were about to eat and she was so stunning. I can't believe she is the same person who used to call me "Nadhir", the person we called "baby lion". How time flies. We are adults now and sometimes I tend to overlook that. We may not be as close as we were in school but it's understandable because we have so many in our plates. I was grateful to have the chance to go to her wedding celebration. I got to meet my other friends as well. In the car, we talked abou...

Semester 3......90% done

 Hey there! the original plan is to update blog tomorrow. However, changes of plan. I just finished my first essay for HNH finals. I don't feel like continuing the second essay tonight. My brain needs a plenty of rest. Tonight I chose to update blog before I missed it. As stated in the title, you can tell that I'm in the middle of finals. 2 papers done, I is ongoing, 4 upcoming. I cannot wait to finish the finals. I have lots of plans in my mind such as maybe I could continue watching the originals season 4, watch one or two kdramas (maybe 18 again and crash landing on you?)  and read 3 books!!!! wuhuuuuu! So that's the semester break plan and a bit of life update. Actually I have no big issues, except for how tough this semester is to me. I'm done complaining so lets look at the brighter side. Perhaps I can share what I've been learning this semester. So the core subjects are statistics and Social Psychology. Statistics is always boring to me but I gained something...

Short staycation, currently in week 13, current mood.

Hi! It's January 20, 2022. This morning, I was supposed to finish introduction part in assignment 1 Psychological testing 1 however I don't feel like doing it so here I am updating the blog. I'm currently in week 13 and it feels like hell. There are 3 assignments, and 4 tests left for this semester. I don't know if I'm procrastinating or I'm taking my time and have some breaks by watching movies and YouTube in between the assignments. I literally do not want to push myself too much. Trying to stay sane in this insane period. I don't know what I'm doing anymore, what I want to know is I will finish this semester instead of this semester finishes me. Let's pray that I'll be able to get pass through this. This too shall pass.  So 20 days into January, there's only two things that made this January feels like less hell. First one, we went staycation in 1 January. Well, it's only for one night but still a good escape! I spent a lot of time wit...
