Me and My Passion

"I'll tell myself to be easy on myself because I'm still 19, it's okay if I haven't figured out my life fully yet." Most people, especially my age, haven't discovered their own self completely. Me neither. Including passion. People in my culture don't usually talk about passion, especially when it comes to choice of career and make a living. But for me, passion is so important to get a person going. I don't do a small research yet about passion, whether it has been popular term in the past or it's only popular for the millennials like me. Passion is somewhat happening in the world right now.

Lessons Learned from the Movie "Suddenly Seventeen"

Sampai pada masa aku SMP. Baru saja lulus SD saat itu. Kira-kira tahun 2010 sampai tahun 2012. Itu masa-masa dark ages bagiku. Tidak, bahkan durasinya lebih lama. Sekitar tahun 2008-2012. Natasha's dark ages of her life . Well , kenapa aku bisa bilang ini dark ages buatku karena di masa itu aku banyak melakukan hal yang memalukan untuk diriku sendiri. Hal-hal yang aku sesali hingga sekarang ini. Dan masih kupertanyakan. Dulu aku seperti itu, seakan-akan mau memberitahu dunia seberapa besar masalahku sendiri yang sebenarnya, kalau kulihat sekarang ini, tidak ada apa-apanya dibanding semua masalah yang ada. Zaman-zaman FB masih trending dan aku rajin sekali posting status yang isinya aneh-aneh, mulai dari galauan khas anak SMP, sampai maki-makian. Ya ampun. Apa yang kulihat dan sebagian su...
