[ LIFESTYLE ] MANFAAT SARAPAN SEHAT UNTUK TUBUH DAN PIKIRAN KAMU, YAKIN MAU SKIP LAGI?

Sunday, January 8, 2023


Yahalloo!!!

Sudah sarapan, belum?

Ini mungkin salah satu pertanyaan yang sering kita dengar di pagi hari. Kalau aku, Ibu lah yang paling sering bertanya, entah saat akan berangkat sekolah atau memulai aktivitas apapun di pagi hari. Memang anjuran untuk sarapan di pagi hari selalu aku lakukan sejak masih duduk di Sekolah Dasar, karena segala keperluan sekolah dan lain sebagainya masih disiapkan oleh orang tua. Jadi aku hanya mengikuti saja step by step rutinitas pagi yang baik dan benar.

Namun kebiasaan baik itu mulai aku tinggalkan saat harus indekos karena melanjutkan perguruan tinggi di luar kota. Rasanya, mengisi perut hampir tidak pernah aku lakukan di pagi hari. Bagiku, yang kala itu adalah anak kos (dan masih cupu alias belum banyak pengetahuan), pagi hari adalah saat-saat rush hours. Semuanya serba buru-buru, harus gerak cepat dan menolak apapun yang terkesan ribet, salah satunya adalah sarapan.

SCROLL MORE, POST MORE: KEKUATAN MEDIA SOSIAL MENJAGA GENERASI MUDA TETAP CERDAS DAN PRODUKTIF

Monday, October 18, 2021

 

Pandemi Covid 19 mengubah kebiasaan hidup banyak orang di seluruh dunia, termasuk Indonesia. Selain perubahan pola hidup menjadi lebih sehat, salah satu perubahan terbesar lainnya adalah tren penggunaan media sosial. Dari data yang dipublikasikan oleh DataReportal, pengguna internet di Indonesia sendiri meningkat sebanyak 16% atau 27 juta antara tahun 2020 dan 2021. Di mana pengguna media sosial bertambah sebanyak 10 juta orang atau meningkat 6,3% dari rentang tahun 2020 hingga 2021.

Dengan bertambahnya jumlah pengguna, semakin memperkuat pula peran media sosial di dalam kehidupan. Bahkan, saat ini satu hari akan terasa hampa tanpa scrolling setidaknya satu media sosial, khususnya bagi generasi milenial dan gen Z, yang mana dua kategori ini tercatat sebagai pengguna media sosial terbanyak saat ini.

Menjadi semakin powerful, fungsi media sosial menjadi semakin kompleks, tergantung jenis penggunanya. Apakah kamu termasuk penikmat konten, pembuat konten atau keduanya?

Monday, May 21, 2018



Kapankah waktu terbaik untuk membuat sebuah perayaan? Pada saat ulang tahun? Atau saat kelulusan? Bagi sebagian besar orang, perayaan memang identik hanya dilakukan di saat-saat tertentu seperti memperingati hari kelahiran, kelulusan, pernikahan hingga ketika seseorang mendapatkan promosi jabatan di kantor. Tapi pernahkah kalian berpikir untuk membuat perayaan hidup setiap hari? Iya, merayakan hidup kita setiap hari tanpa harus menunggu peristiwa khusus atau penting terjadi.


Take time out for a little joy and self-congratulation. You deserve it!


Coba renungkan sesaat sebelum kita tidur. Apa saja yang kita lakukan hari ini? Sudah selesaikah semua tugas dan pekerjaan hari ini? Belum? Ah, jangan khawatir, esok masih ada waktu dan kesempatan.

[ PERSONAL ] MEMESONA ITU... ADA DI DALAM DIRI SETIAP WANITA

Monday, April 10, 2017





What does charming mean to you? Ladies, let’s talk about it from heart to heart, as women...


Ketika merenungkan makna #MemesonaItu, hal apa yang terlintas di pikiran kalian? Apakah hanya sebatas wajah yang rupawan dan pakaian yang bagus? Ataukah memiliki kehidupan mewah bak bintang Hollywood dan sosialita? Cukupkah hal-hal tersebut mewakili makna ‘memesona’ bagi kita? Atau mungkin kalian memiliki penilaian lain tentang makna #MemesonaItu?

Bagi saya, #MemesonaItu ada di dalam diri setiap wanita, sebagai hadiah dari Tuhan agar dapat kita gunakan untuk menginspirasi dunia. Karena itulah, saya rasa setiap wanita berhak dan bisa tampil memesona dengan cara dan sudut pandangnya masing-masing. Seorang artis bisa tampil memesona saat berada di red carpet dengan makeup dan gaun yang mewah. Seorang dokter layak disebut memesona ketika dia yang dengan tulus berjuang demi keselamatan pasiennya. Seorang pejabat patut disebut memesona saat dia sepenuh hati bekerja demi kesejahteraan rakyat. Seorang guru pun tidak kalah memesona ketika mendidik generasi penerus bangsa.
Apa hanya mereka yang berprofesi bagus bisa disebut memesona? Bagaimana dengan kita? Saya hanya freelancer, saya hanya karyawati kantor, saya hanya ibu rumah tangga, saya hanya mahasiswa biasa. Bisakah wanita yang merasa ‘biasa-biasa’ saja juga disebut memesona?

GANGNAM DISTRICT : HUNIAN MODERN ALA KOREA DI KOTA BEKASI

I should say: the house shelters day-dreaming, the house protects the dreamer, the house allows one to dream in peace – Gaston Bachelard






Jika harus menggambarkan rumah impian yang kita inginkan, tempat tinggal seperti apa yang terpikirkan? Rumah pantai bergaya arsitektur minimalis milik Han Ji Eun di drama Full House? Rumah atap unik yang ditinggali Park Ha di Rooftop Prince? Atau rumah megah bergaya klasik milik si Goblin ganteng Kim Shin? Kalau saya sih, lebih memilih untuk tinggal di apartemen.
Bagi saya, apartemen bisa menjadi pilihan terbaik untuk tinggal di kota besar mengingat kepadatan penduduk Indonesia yang terus meningkat sementara lahan semakin menyempit. Berikut ini 5 alasan terbaik kenapa kita sebaiknya memilih tinggal di apartemen.



5 Keuntungan Tinggal di Apartemen

* Lokasi strategis. Apartemen biasanya dibangun di pusat kota dengan akses transportasi yang mudah, dekat lokasi perkantoran dan fasilitas umum kota. Tidak ada apartemen yang dibangun di tengah hutan, karena itu namanya gua bukan apartemen :)
* Lebih aman. Karena akan ada penjagaan 24 jam dan tentunya CCTV di setiap sudut gedung.
* Praktis. Kita tidak perlu pusing memikirkan air bersih, masalah pembuangan sampah atau repot mengurus taman karena semuanya sudah diurus oleh pihak pengembang apartemen. Dan pastinya bebas banjir!

[ PERSONAL ] THE LIEBSTER AWARD : AWARD FOR THE SWEETEST

Wednesday, May 11, 2016


Hi all you guys! Cintya’s here and welcome back to my blog!

Alright guys, I’m so excited to post this article today. This is about The Liebster Award. Yass, it’s my very first Liebster Award since I’ve strarted this blog in October last year. As I’m not an expert in blogging, I always try to post something as good as I can. And this award gives me more power to be a better blogger, surely.

Well, most of you know about The Liebster Award, don’t you? In case you haven’t known this award, Liebster Award is an award that exists on the internet, given by a blogger to other bloggers in order to support each others and just to get to know the person behind the blog. This Liebster Award will help others to discover new blogs and to build a sense of community in the blogging world.
I think there’s no patent rules when you give Liebster Award to other bloggers. Basically, just thank to the blogger who nominated you, answer the questions, nominate 5-11 blogs to receive the award, make your own questions, tell the bloggers you nominated by leaving comment on their blog. You can also write some facts about yourself if you want. Okay, let’s start!

First, I’m going to say thank you soo much to my lovely blogger friend, Chelsheaflo who nominated me to this award! She’s a beauty and fashion blogger from Indonesia, you can check  her adorable blog at chelsheaflo.blogspot.com and enjoy her posts there. I’m sure you will get lotta inspiration of fashion and beauty since she’s a designer and illustrator too.

Now, I’m going to answer the questions from Chelshea.



  1. Why do you love blogging?
I do love writing since I was little. I love to write fiction and even draw comics. I and three of my classmate made monthly kids magazine when we were in elementary school. And we wrote the content manually (!), photocopied it and sold it to the others. Ha, that was so crazy fun!
My first blog is in blogetery and created when I was in HighSchool. I wrote most of my daily life there but that’s so looong ago and I never updated the blog anymore, until blogetery site closes down, LOL. Then I grew up and fell in love with makeup. While writing is my hobby and makeup is my passion, I believe that I should do something to keep those two things being useful and helpful to others. And the answer is blogging. I love sharing my experiences in makeup and beauty and also giving inspiration for others to be more beautiful.

  1. Who is your biggest inspiration?
My Mom. She’s very beautiful though she’s not young anymore. She teaches me everything, especially about love. About how to love and help others without expecting anything in return. I also learned how to be stronger no matter how hard this life is. My Mom who always does anything for me without complaining. She said that she will always love and help me in her lifetime. That gives me more spirit to face this life.

  1. What is your passion in life?
I already wrote in the answer number 1. Makeup is my biggest passion in life. Well, makeup is art to beautify us.

  1. Where is your favorite place in your town and why?
There’s a world where I can go and tell my secrets to. In this world I lock out all my worries and my fears. Do my dreaming and my scheming lie awake and pray. Do my crying and my sighing laugh at yesterday... In my room...
LOL.
Though it sounds so blleehh but I’m still going to choose my own room to be my favorite place. Of course with the internet connection laa~

  1. Who is your first love?
Oh dear, I’m not that good in love life in fact. I think I haven’t loved a guy like I llooveee him to die! Ehmm, not yet laa. But I remember a guy that makes me wanna go to school and don’t want to go home! At that time, I didn’t like to go to school, how lazy I was! But this guy, actually my senior in Highschool, he had ‘something’ that makes me really happy to meet him. In fact that we weren’t a couple since I was living like a dumbbell at that time, I still smile remembering him until now. So, could that be a first love? Ahahaa...

  1. What makes you give up on something?
I’m not a typically desperate person. I’ll fight for everything I want. Many people say that I’m a kind of choding (childish) girl but on the other hand they admit how strong I am. People who know me closely knew how hard I struggled to get up from my most wtf unlucky situation when I was a senior highschool student. Afterall, I think there’s nothing could stop me to make my dreams come true. I only give up when there’s NO OTHER way except giving up sincerely so I won’t hurt anybody. Like I loved a guy who has a wife. I SHOULD give up, right?

  1. How do you explain yourself in one word?
Special. Well, I’m special to those who loves me tenderly. If there’s no one love me, I’m still special to my own self #BHAK!

  1. What is your favorite beauty product brand?
Most of my favorite skincare and makeup brand is from Korea since their formula is very friendly to my skin. I think Laneige is my most favorite. I love all of their products I’ve tried. I love Laneige’s skincare and so do the makeup.

  1. Are you an introvert or extrovert and why?
I’m not sure about that. I mean, I’m not that quiet to called an introvert but I’m not that easy to build a relationship with others. There’s a time when I just rely on myself, want to do anything alone, don’t want to meet anybody and only live in my own world. But sometimes, I’d like to meet up with lotta friends, having party, going to a concert and doing many crazy things. Many people thought that I’m an introvert firstly but then they change their mind after that because I could be so crazy like bhaakk!
So? I think I’m an ambievert ;)

  1. What is your dream job?
I wanna be an professional author. And I think working with Marie Claire or Vogue will gonna be fun!

CUTIE PINK FLORAL NAIL ART

Thursday, October 15, 2015


Hi there!

Today’s post is for nail art tutorial. I’m not a pro nail artist actually, so forgive me for this amateur tutorial. Well, at least we’re gonna have fun ya?! Tehee...



In this tutorial I use Pokari and Just Miss nail polish bought from Stoberi and Naughty stores in my town. It’s cheap and I think it’s a local product. But I found that the quality is pretty good so... let’s get started!

I like soft and pastel color for my nails, so I choose soft pink color using Pokari Nail Polish 02 in Strawberry Milk and for bling bling effect, I use Just Miss glitter nail polish number 107 and other brand, idk what the name, in pink glitter color.



First, make sure that the nails are clean and healthy. 


Then I start applying the Pokari Strawberry Milk. I’m so in love with this color because it’s so light and sweet color. Makes my nails look bright and lovely. 


Next, I put the pink glitter nail polish on my point finger’s nail and apply the silver glitter one on half of my other nails. It’s optional, I mean you can decorate and use the nail polish like whatever you want.



Since I can’t draw on nails properly, so for the flower decorations I use Nail Art Sticker, choose pinky flower pattern. Using nail art stickers is so easy. Just detach them and patch on your nails. 
And tadaa...you have a beautiful art on your nails just in seconds!



But you must be careful when you detach them or you will be ripped them as it’s so small and thin in size.

You can choose 3D nail sticker to get more beautiful art like when you have Acrylic Nail Art in nail salon.

Play your creativities gals. You can put the flower pattern anywhere you like. And the last step, don’t forget to use top coat for making your nail art long last and more glossy.



Well, sometimes we don’t have to spend a lot of money in nail salon to get a beautiful nail art. We can get the attractive nail look just by using those cheap tools though. We don’t have to go to the nail salon and do it in home. I’m sure it gives us an exercise to improve our creativity too gals. And yeah it’s cheap, easy and fun!

Thanks for reading guys. How’s your way to have fun with your nails? Tell me on the comment box ya. I’d like to read that. See you in next post.
