Twentieth October

Today could become one of finest day in my life. 20th October is Alex's and Nia's birthday. They celebrated their happy moments humbly. I really loved to see they're growing and becoming more playful. This was also the first time they had a video call with Kelvin. Alex is sort of a coy boy since his English is not yet good. But at the end, he could show his smile to Kelvin to just say hi. Few months back then, he was that enthusiastic to call 'Uncle Kelvin', that's how he called Kelvin. I just wonder what Alex would do and really want to spot his first impression to meet Kelvin for the first time later. Anyways, happiest birthday to Alex and Nia. You guys are amazing souls with gorgeous spirits. I truly miss you guys. There will be great days for all of us to gather, sharing nice moments, laughter out loud, cooking and enjoying good food, and discussing about plans for the family.


Not only celebrating the birthday, Kelvin and I had 2 online IELTS classes. This was so fun to do. While doing the test, we discussed about the best possible answers, lol. That's cheating, kids. Don't try this at home, ok. Our score is getting better, especially the listening and grammar. We got perfect scores in grammar. Probably we would have daily IELTS sessions together. We still have times till next December. Kelvin also does his best, and next time he does it, there will be no assistance for him. Big boy don't cheat. 


Today was a productive day. Even if I'm not yet fully recovered from fever, flu, soar throat, coughing, headache, but I will be forever grateful to have my lovely ones around. And what makes me happier is that Kelvin started to resume his gym again. No wonder this 1 month he becomes more fit, gain more muscles for his upper body, and getting stronger since he did cardio more. The thing he couldn't manage was food. He needs more time to adjust. Just imagine this, when he was starving, he would choose to eat rice and the mouthwatering lamb stew. But I will appreciate his endeavors to be healthier. 


What a beautiful day. 


This month's main highlight is to learn to rest since I keep juggling, keep working until late night, less time to sleep, eat less, work out less. I can't complain because I know, what I have on my plate now could be a dream for other people. The best thing I could do is to remain thankful and to regulate my timetable. 


O Allah, please guide me until I am fully recovered and be forever grateful for Your unceasing blessings. Amin.

Singkatnya, Aku Pulang

Kepada K. Aku mencitaimu sepanjang sinar bulan yang membulat sampai ke bumi tanpa dipantulkan ulang cahayanya. Air menggenang di tanah tapi hujan tertampung di kaca jendela. Langit berawan, namun bintang mengerdip, begitu genit berkelindan di balik matamu. Aku ingin mendaki ke atas bulan, memanjatkan hal-hal mustahil sambil memegang erat pergelangan tanganmu. Bawa saja aku, bahkan ketika kau sedang bermimpi, menghidupkan ulang harapan yang terpotong menjadi tersambung, satu-persatu, juga begitu pelan. Di perjalanan yang tidak begitu singkat, kita berkelana, mengarungi banyak kelok, jatuh dan tergelincir, menyasar hingga menemukan petunjuk dengan mengikuti kemana garis tanganmu menyebar. Tatkala garis itu terpotong, kita bergegas dengan menukik ke arah tebing yang masih hijau. Ucapmu, "Udara menjadi segar begitu kita senantiasa bersama." Maka kuikat kedua lenganku di pundakmu. Aku berdoa sejenak, bahwa meski bencana melanda, kita masih bisa berenang dan berpegangan lebih erat ...

Writing As A Love Language

:Vin Elk, Ars Magna, & Lady Loved* Lately, I have enjoyed writing a lot. Writing worked on me the way Dumbledore did while he was in Penseive, so he could experience his memories through other perspectives. He uses it to siphon the excess thoughts from his mind, pour them into the basin, and examine them at leisure. Writing has helped me to untangle my mind, examine what to deliver, communicate the messages verbally and non-verbally, and reflect on how this writing will evoke certain emotions or moods. Writing becomes the mirror that provides insight into who I am, what I desire, what I experience, what I value, and what I am not into. Writing becomes the language that deliberates my inner peace. On another level, writing could answer the quest that dwells in my mind.  I am glad to share what is significant for me right now. Being loved by the right person and people is heaven, and so is being respected, prioritized, supported, desired, and understood. The right person and peop...

The Fall and The Rise, The Sorrow and The Courage

 Dear my love, Kelvin, please accept my deep condolence on the loss of your beloved sister and beloved grandma this year.  We never been taught how to understand the loss of our loved ones: father, sister, and granny. The grief can be particularly intense. It is accepted as natural part of life with shock, confusion, and also sadness. Grieving becomes significant to welcome those feelings and to continue to embrace the time we had with our loved ones.  I genuinely appreciate your personal willingness to share what you feel. Let's go hand in hand with this wide range of emotions. This sad news can be the most uneasy challenge we face. It also can be the remembrance to honor them. I am thinking about you who are experiencing restlessness, tightness in the chest, and breathlessness.  We don't miss our father, our sister, and our granny. It's not a goodbye for they always stay here, with us in our hearts with love and peace. We will continue the bond we had with our love...
