What will you do when you feel down?

Hey everyone…how are you, mentally and physically? Are you all really okay?

For me, both mental and physical health are very important. There is no point if you have a lot of cash, but your inner health is not happy/sad. If your mental was tired with your chaotic life, then you need to stop and follow your own pace.

Well, recently something had happened. I snapped and do my own checking for my mental and physical health. I had noticed, recently I had not exercising and easily tired. Insomnia is one of the sign that I’m having a mental disturbed.

What you need to do if your mental is disturbed?

1. You need to find a backup plan, if your current plan didn’t work out.

It is very important to have some extra 2 or 3 backup plans on anything, so whenever things didn’t go right, at least you will have some other plans to do.

2. Find and create your own happiness.

Yes, this is very important. No one will make you happy. Your happiness is your own responsibility. You rule your own happiness. Do things that make you happy, as long as it didn’t against the law. Be yourself, be real and don’t be fake. Coz once you’d been noticed fake, it’s just…disgusted.

3. Let it go, everyone is not perfect.

Everyone has his/her own strength and has his/her own weakness. Nobody have right to pull down anyone, because himself/herself has their own weakness. Human is created by God such way, and to complete each other. I really don’t believe if someone told me, that they are perfect. Coz nobody does and only God is perfect in multiple ways.

4. Catch memories of the happiness and spread the positive vibes

It wasn’t easy to be happy on this earth, so catch some photos or videos of these memories if you have a chance. Your inner happiness will create a positive vibes around the society and spread the positivities.

5. Pray to God

Last, but not least is to pray to God. We are the planner, but on top of our plans, there is a Big Planner which is..God’s plan. Doesn’t matter what religion you are, pray to your God and asked from God. Those who don’t have faith in any God, I pray someday you will have some faith to God. For muslims, perform some extra prayers other than 5mandatory prayers, and recite Quran. Insya Allah, Allah will ease everything for us. Amin 🤲

Till then, to be continue…adios…

How Minimalist staying with Maximalist under 1 roof 😃

Hi everyone!! Today’s topic is a bit bizarre to discuss, but yet most of times happening and is an issue for minimalist out there, including me 😄

So, we all know how minimalist characters, we love simple things, and keep things that only really means to us. But hey, how bout if you got no choice to live with those who are maximalist? Well…well…well…you are not alone! I’m living with my parents and my mom is maximalist…😀

I should say, it’s kinda depress to see a lot of unwanted stuffs everywhere in the kitchen, in the living room, in the garden, but yet you just can’t throw it out coz it’s not yours and its your mom’s stuff, plus you are staying in their house. You are not…alone…😂 🤪

Well, you actually really can’t do much, but for me, I will take some my little space, in each of corner in the kitchen especially for my own stuff. My mom, not allow for me to have my whole 1 cupboard, but she just allow me put my things in 1 container at the places. You heard me right, its plural ‘places’. She gave me, one corner in the fridge, 1 corner in the spices, at the other corner for my dry ingredients like my takoyaki flour, bonito flakes and other dry stuff, and another corner for my sauces like honey mustard. To be honest with you, it gimme a lot of headache to find my stuff, so I keep some in my own cupboard, in my room. Like a small cupboard pantry 😃

My Small Cupboard Pantry for dry food packets 😃

This is one of the cupboard or some call wardrobe. But, I have 2 wardrobe, well..I’m living in a family whom all members are maximalist, except my dad and me. So yeah, I have 1 big wardrobe, and 1 small wardrobe. So the big one, as you can find in my other post, is solely only for my clothes, handbag, duvet cover and bedsheets, towel and scarf. And another 1 small cupboard, I keep the sort of unwanted stuff that need to sort, like cables, candles, essential oils that Im barely use, projector, gun glue and sort of stuff. So, I keep one rack for my dry food stuff, like coffee, sauces in packet, jelly packet…etc..

Tadaaa…one of the rack is for my dry food stuff

Haha…well, when you got no choice, built choices on your own 😂 so, another thing I have is, a small minifridge under my desk 😂 Yes, you heard it right..under my desk coz I got very limited space in my room. But soon, when my house completed, I will make it as my serum storage 🙂

My Micro Fridge for some drinks and small treats 🥰

Its very tiny fridge, obviously not for meat or vegie 😂 but for a small can or drinks, or some small treats.. should be okay 😊

Okay guys, thats all for today..oh yea..by the way, today is Eid-Adha, wishing all Muslims Happy Eid-Adha ❤

Till then, to be continue. I will show you how to make Homemade Takoyaki at home tomorrow..Wee!!! I love takoyaki, I believe most people love it. See u tomorrow!!

Love, Sofia

It’s been awhile…I’m back!

Hello everyone, it’s been awhile that Im updating my blog. Well, well, well..its a part of my goal to have an optimum happiness including job task. I don’t want to work hard and no one appreciate your hardwork, to be in the wrong team. Despite all of that, I rather be alone and focusing on my own strength. I believe each of person has his/her own strength and weakness. What you need to do, is to focus on someone strength and make a good use of it, rather than focusing on someone weakness and pulling down their willpower. So, to be in a positive environment is most crucial for our own happiness. I hope one day, I can have an optimum happiness. It’s not a big dream, a dream that I feel satisfied to what I have for now. To feel greatful to my God (Allah SWT) for what I have.

Well guys, let’s live follow the flow. Sometimes, what you plan didn’t work, but believe it, with patience it will eventually worth it.

Till then, I will update more often after this..

To be continue…

Love, Sofia
