Something to Learn, and Something to Appreciate

Hello everyone, it’s been awhile Im updating my blog. How are you? Hope everything just fine and smooth.

Today, just want to talk bout relationship experience. As year past through, I’m finally into real relationship, a mature relationship.

Sometimes, rejection and declination are the only way for God to redirect us into the correct path. So that, we will appreciate our new relationship.

The past has its own lesson to learn, and the future is to appreciate your spouse/partner. Everything has it’s own timeframe. So, if you are still single now, believe me your spouse/partner is somewhere else out there.

Believe in God’s timeframe, it was the best for us. Subhanallah ❀

Love, Sofia

Are You A Minimalist?

Hola!!! cΓ³mo estΓ‘s? How are you? Hope you are all in good health, insya Allah πŸ₯°

Today, I wanna share with you, the changes on myself after being a minimalist since 2018, so here we go…

1. Starts love being at home more than outside – busy cooking, clothes laundering, room cleaning, organizing clothes etc

It started from the pandemic, when everyone been lockdown and be at home 24/7. I spend most of my time, cooking a nutritious food, spending time doing my laundry and folding my clothes right after dried, then straight keep it in my wardrobe. I also, found myself at home, busy wiping dust in my room, sweeping the floor and also maintaining my bedsheets, pillow etc. I’d found myself, always decluttering my wardrobe, until I have few empty hanger. Im really excited achieving this and I feel happy and self-content on this changes on me, for over 4 years being a Minimalist ❀πŸ₯°β€

Making a simple and nutritious big breakfast. I eat the fruit first, before others. So, stomach will full of fiber first as it’s good for digestion system.
I became addicted to Cleaning and Organizing stuffs πŸ˜ƒ

2. Earning some extra cash money – selling unused items to buy gold

Okay, another thing I sort of knowing Im align with Minimalist is that, I earn some cash money from decluttering my unused items!! πŸ˜ƒ

Yes! You hear it right! Those unused items, I took pictures and sell in online. Hahaha!! Sound funny, but hey!! I got 1 gold ring with the accumulated money I sold!! So, those unused items, you may donate if you want, or just resell it!! Sell it with cheap price, coz in the end, you won’t use it too, and its kinda some sort of charity coz you sell it cheap. But, in return, I got 1 ring gold!!! Hahaha! I’m proud of it, Alhamdulillah πŸ₯°

Some Betta Fish set that I no longer use. Total cost spend about RM 100++, but I sell it for RM 35, the guy asked for RM 30, I just accepted it. So, it’s somehow doing charity + get some money too πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ

3. Having more extra time, as reducing time in maintaining daily routine – laundry, wiping/cleaning room

Okay next thing is, I’m having more extra time for myself as my things had reduced for clean up. My weekly dirty clothes reducing too, as before being a Minimalist my weekly dirty clothes usually pile up full or more than 1 big basket. But now, I have not reach 1 normal basket for 1 week clothes. Then, washing and drying clothes time reduced as well because I don’t have much clothes to wash. Extra those time I have, I will spend by folding the dried clothes and put it into my wardrobe nicely. It looks nice in the wardrobe too, as less clothes need to be displayed and can put it into a proper hanger.

Im happy to see more hangers than clothes in my wardrobe πŸ₯°

It was easy to maintain my room now, as more of stuffs are gone and only left empty floors. I love it so much, as it was easy for me to sweep and wipe my floor. Haha!! I did wipe my floors by hand, and Im not using mop πŸ˜ƒ

I have more time to spend vacuuming my bed. Yes! I vacuum my mattress, quilt and pillow. Haha!! Surprisingly, there are some dust too, eventhough its under the bedsheet, and pillowsheet. So, it is recommended to either vacuum, or hang those under the sunlight πŸ₯°

Vacuuming the mattress, quilt and pillow biweekly basis πŸ˜€

4. Having more space and my room looks cleaner most of time – in wardrobe and room

Yes, absolutely. When I let go most of my things, absolutely I will have more spaces. I love and admiring empty spaces more than spaces with lot of unwanted stuffs. I had once, stayed alone in my previous home, and when my parents came over, my mom always complaining that why my home is “Too Empty”? Hahaha. I enjoy less stuff most of the time coz it is easy for maintaining and cleaning job πŸ˜ƒπŸ₯°

A clean floor, if I have my own new house I will have a robot to keep it clean most of times. Little helper required 😍

5. I’m now addicted to Organizer – Organizer is More than my Stuff

I’m now addicted to Organizing Videos, Organizing trick and tips and busy organizing everything including my medicine, car, clothes and stocks.

Yes, this is absolutely time reducing to find things in my room. I don’t frequently changing my organization location, and I love to maintain my organization time by time. Meaning to say, I love maintaining my organizing stuff, especially my stocks such as Shampoo, Body Gel, Toothbrush, Toothpaste etc.

My beauty and cleaning stocks, I organized it into 2 boxes, and kept it in my wardrobe, on top shelf πŸ˜ƒ
Inside the wardrobe and on top of the shelf πŸ₯°
Another example, is my First Aid. I keep all medicine in this kit, so I no longer need to find plaster under drawer, oitment in wardrobe etc. Everything will be in this First Aid box. πŸ₯°

Okay, I think thats all for now. To be Continue..

S.O.M.E.T.I.M.E.S

Sometimes you think, everything was perfect…

But not most of the time is perfect…

Sometimes you feel happy…

Sometimes you feel sad….

And Sometimes you feel angry..

But no matter how hard the life is….

Have faith in God, and just trust the God’s plan blindly….

Because He knows what is the best for you, without you knowing it.

Embrace yourself if things didn’t goes well…

And just enjoy the presence of God and you….

So that, you can rebuilt the relationship again with God…

No matter what will happen in life, just trust God’s plan, blindly.

Sometimes you think you did enough…

But its actually not enough to some people…

But God knows what is enough and what is not…

So rely blindly to God’s plan and decisions.

1. First of all, trace the bottom Dustbin onto the empty box like below picture πŸ‘‡

2. Then, cut the lines. Glue the circle box with Burlap, and keep the Burlap 1 inch around the circle box to glue later.

3. Put the Jute rope onto the circle box and glued with glue gun. Then turn circle the jute rope and repeating the process until finished.

4. Glue the circle box onto the bottom of the Dustbin. Then, continue turn circle the jute until finished.

5. When the jute finished, I continue by taking out jute from bigger size. Hahaha..just using whatever I have πŸ˜‰

6. Then, I glued the Burlap and Jute with Glue Gun. Kinda much I needed for the Glue Gun.

7. Then, I take out and open my new sponge for the ruffle. Haha πŸ˜ƒ

8. For ribbon, I just simply cut n paste with Glue Gun. You can fold nicely, but I like easiest way and look neat πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜œ. Check this out πŸ‘‡

Good afternoon everyone!! Its Thursday, guys!! 1 day to goo…before we meet weekend again!! Weehooo!!! πŸ₯°

Well, I just want to share with you what are my hobbies as a minimalist, to feel content and keep clutters away in a better way. ❀

So, here we go…πŸ˜‰

1. Making A DIY project.

As I being a minimalist, my characters are slowly change. I spend most of my time sitting home, and maintaining my things at home. One of my fav things to do is, to redesign, and reuse existing things I have. I have Burlap, Ribbons, Wrapping papers, Sponges etc at home, from my previous business plan. Why am I buying these stuff? Well, I thought when pandemic happened, I will loose my job. However, it turn out that I got more job offers. Alhamdulillah πŸ₯°, so I have never starts my business. So, here all are the stuff,s that I need to get rid by making a D.I.Y stuff ❀πŸ₯°β€

2. Strolling the park.

Another what I like to do is strolling the park. I love nature so much, especially forest. It calms me when I have anxiety or problems. To go forest alone, is very risky. So, I choose to stroll the park whichever has little/mini forest nearby πŸ₯°

I climbed up 3rd floor of the watch tower. Its so relaxing. Next time, Im gonna bring hot tea/black coffee with me πŸ˜ƒ

3. Explore new recipe in kitchen.

I love exploring new recipes on internet. First trial, I will try the original recipes, then for 2nd and 3rd trial I will modify the recipes, and jot it down all the modification I made. πŸ₯° i love creating my very own recipes according to my own taste bud. ❀

I cut the dumpling’s skin into half, coz its too big. I cut into small bite sizes πŸ˜ƒπŸ₯°

4. Decluttering own room/space.

Well, this is like a ‘ritual routine’ for me πŸ˜…. Most of time, I will take a plastic bag and walk around the room, stand by if I can throw anything into it πŸ˜‚. Clearing out my wardrobe, my workspace, my bathroom etc..and Im really enjoying it. I enjoy clearing my room, clean and tidy my space area πŸ₯°.

Make up my bed every morning is my mandatory ‘ritual routine’ πŸ˜‚

5. Sell off unwanted items.

Yes!!! This is sooo cool. Previously, I just throw every of my unwanted items. But now, thanks to my Mr Love, he suggested to sell it off. Since I started, I think in end october or early november, I made around RM250 of my unwanted items and plus ++ I cleared my space. Weeee!!!!~~ Its fabulous πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°

Someone gonna pick these from my room. I have 3 aquarium πŸ˜‚ another one to let it go..πŸ₯°

Okay guys, I think thats all for now. Im sharing with you what I usually do to declutter my things, and keep myself content ❀πŸ₯°

Till then, see you again…to be continue….
