Are You A Minimalist?

Hola!!! cómo estás? How are you? Hope you are all in good health, insya Allah 🥰

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 ❤🥰❤

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 😃

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!! 😃

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 🥰

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 😃😃😃

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 🥰

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 😃

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 🥰

Vacuuming the mattress, quilt and pillow biweekly basis 😀

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 😃🥰

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 😃

Inside the wardrobe and on top of the shelf 🥰

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. 🥰

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

1. Put the mixture soil into the pot.

2. Make some hole with mini shovel in the center of the soil.

3. Take out the baby cactus from the original pot.

4. Put the cactus into the hole, then cover the remaining soil with mini shovel.

Trash to Treasure..DIY Dustbin 😍

Hye Everyone 😇 Happy Friyay, guys! Hope you are all in great vibes. 🥰

Today, Im gonna share how I combined both my hobbies into something new makeover. Hahahaha!!! Yes!! I’M DECLUTTERING WHILE MAKING DO IT YOURSELF PROJECT DECORATION!! 😆

Okay, first thing first, I need to get rid/declutter my previous business items like ribbon, sponge, burlap etc right. So, I was thinking. My dustbin is so dull, and it always flew away whenever there are heavy thrash inside because the dustbin is too light in weight.

So, I decided to make some DIY Project, to decorate my dustbin. Yay!!! 🥰

All You Need to Have….

These are the items needed, plus **Jute rope** and **empty** **box**. Missing in the photo 😌

Let’s Do It! 🥰❤🥰

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

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 😉

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 😃

8. For ribbon, I just simply cut n paste with Glue Gun. You can fold nicely, but I like easiest way and look neat 😃😜. Check this out 👇

9. After cut, paste, cut, paste and cut paste, the final product will be…..TaaaaDaaa 👇!! 🥰

Okay, till then…to be continue….adios..

5 Minimalist Habits that changed My Lifestyle 🥰

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

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…😉

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 🥰, 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 ❤🥰❤

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 🥰

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

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. 🥰 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 😃🥰

4. Decluttering own room/space.

Well, this is like a ‘ritual routine’ for me 😅. Most of time, I will take a plastic bag and walk around the room, stand by if I can throw anything into it 😂. 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 🥰.

Make up my bed every morning is my mandatory ‘ritual routine’ 😂

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 🥰🥰🥰

Someone gonna pick these from my room. I have 3 aquarium 😂 another one to let it go..🥰

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

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

Love, Sofia

Let’s Chillex!! 😘

Hey everybody! Good morning! How are you doing?? Hope you are happy and blessed with your family and friends.

It’s been a lot of things running through my mind lately. A lot of things need to sort and plan. I didn’t know where to start. So, I went for a long walk to chill and relax.

Last Saturday, I went to Taman Tasik Metropolitan, Kepong. Previously, the name waa Taman Layang-Layang. They do some renovation and change the name, perhaps to make it sounds more commercialised? 😃

So here we go…check these out some photos that I managed to snap 😀

Previously, they don’t have this..they just built it now..

Okay, you can actually rent bicycle here. They have variety of bicycles to choose. 😉

Some view from the back of the lake…it was really a huge lake to chill 🥰

Some water fountain and sunshine…I love the ambience 🥰

And on top of the hills, got 2 of watch towers…

I’d found a quiet place to chill…next time I will bring tea or black coffee to chill..🥰

Thinking to draft plans, but end up just chilling..hehe

Okay, after went for a long morning walk, I went to the mall, named Melawati Mall. Having Thailand cuisine for my lunch. The restaurant is Boat Noodles ❤

These are stack noodles. There is not much inside the bowl – Small portion. I ordered 6, I guess next time just to order 4, plus the dessert. They have nice steam bread with kaya sauce. Next time, Im gonna order those.

My fav if I come here..Thailand Matcha Tea

Then, I went home. This is so called my ‘me time’. 🥰

Till then, to be continue….

A.L.O.N.E – Part 2

Sometimes all what you want…

Is just to be alone….and lost in somewhere people don’t know you…

Enjoying your own company in a new place..

Rethink over and over again about your choices…about your past, current and future life..

Re-evaluate yourself…..

To slow down the pace….to ignore the unwanted feelings or faces…..

To calm yourself…to be in peaceful mind…

Thoughtful mind peace is more what you need now…

To get to know yourself better….

To understand yourself better……

To be in full of peace mind set…

To set some goals….either short term or long term goals.

Love, Sofia
