Workshop Manual Coffee Brewing

A lot of girls nowadays talk about self-love and being confident in their own skin, but ironically, to achieve that, they try so hard. How do you promote these values if you are changing so many parts of your body? I raise my eyebrows whenever I read comments from fellow peers to certain girls like, “super pretty!”, “always beautiful, babe”, while in fact, they have undergone so many treatments to achieve that ‘face’. On a personal level, it is everyone’s right to do what they want to do, and I do not want to judge. I just wish that more girls would focus on accepting and loving their self genuinely and explore more of their potentials instead of just their outer look. But hey, you do you.

Jujur saja, selama saya akhirnya memutuskan untuk berkarir di dalam “kantor”, saya jadi agak punya sedikit waktu buat “me time”, se simple mau ke salon, mau hunting make up, mau foto foto cantik nongkrong seharian di cafe, mager mager an di kos temen, nonton drama korea seharian. Itu kayak masa lalu buat saya *gaya banget*

But, apa boleh buat, semua yang saya lakukan semua nya pasti ada tujuannya, dan tujuannya gak pernah main-main lagi, semakin banyak pelajaran pelajaran baru yang saya dapat pastinya dari pekerjaan baru saya sekarang.

Nah, di kantor saya yang super asyik dan creative banget itu sering banget kerjasama dengan vendor, perusahaan, seniman, home production yang bergerak di bidang “ramah lingkungan”, which is karena tempat kerja saya sekarang sangat apreciate seni dan lingkungan hidup, jadi lah saya sebagai team markom kadang kebanjiran barang-barang unyu, eco-friendly, bermanfaat buat educate orang-orang di sekitar kita yang lebih lagi aware sama lingkungan, dan ga cuma aware, adanya mindfulness, keseimbangan dalam hidup itu bikin kita selalu mendukung hal-hal baik untuk proses hidup. Dari mulai gaya hidup sehat, mengkosumsi barang-barang dan makanan dengan cerdas, memilih segala nya dengan berazazkan cinta kepada alam semesta ini, salah satu nya dengan terus mendukung dan memakai produk produk lokal yang kita tau dan percaya bahwa yang mereka lakukan adalah untuk peduli dengan alam dan lingkungan sekitar.

Nah kali ini saya akan sedikit review produk dari Utama Spice, perusahaan perawatan kulit tradisional yang berbasis di Ubud, Bali. Mereka memfokuskan diri pada pengetahuan herbal Bali kuno untuk menciptakan produk yang tidak hanya meningkatkan kecantikan alami kulit, tetapi juga memicu pemikiran untuk mempertimbangkan kekuatan dan keindahan alam. Produk mereka 100% menggunakan bahan alami murni karena mereka memiliki filosofi Tri Hita Karana, menghormati dan bekerja sama secara harmonis dengan manusia, alam dan Tuhan.

Keren ya, di jaman serba modern ini masih ada yang peduli dengan hal-hal kecil seperti itu,nah langsung aja saya akan mulai review produk dari utama spice yang pernah dikirim ke kantor saya

1. Utama Spice Natural Liquid Soap & Shampoo

1. 
   
   
   
   
   
   Pertama kali saya cium, bau yang keluar dari kedua nya itu mengingatkan saya pada bunga-bunga yang pernah saya cium di padang savanna gunung Semeru, rasanya seperti benar-benar berada di alam yang bebas dengan harum bunga lavender dan lemongrass ini saya sih yakin kalau kalian yang pakai, pasti bakal lama keluar dari kamar mandi, hehehe
   Teksur nya cair, dan tidak berbusaa, which mean they not lie, ini betul-betul murni, natural, tanpa bahan-bahan pengawet, kimia dan sejenisnyaa. Nah, materpiece yang begini ini yang saya suka banget, orang-orang yang kreatif yang menciptakan produk yang betul betul ramah lingkungan dan pasti gak main main dong pembuatan produknya betul betul diperhatikan hal hal yang bermanfaat dan disukai banyak orang.
   Sebagai orang yang suka dengan produk produk berseni dan peduli lingkungan ini saya bener-bener rekomendasikan produk lokal Utama Spice ini, dan ayo sama sama kita dukung produk yang keren banget ini bisa jadi iconic orang Indonesia yang peduli dengan gaya hidup eco-friendly life.
   2. Utama Spice Body Butter
   
   
   
   
   
   
   Nah, banyak yang gasuka dengan bau body butter ini untuk petama kali,bau nya lebih mirip sama minyak urut tradisional yang biasa dipakai simbah-simbah, bau nya menyengat dan *ugh*, awalnya saya juga tidak tertarik apalagi dengan bau yang *tua* ini. Tapi akhirnya saya cium-cium in terus lama lama bikin pernafasan saya baik, sepeerti misal nya saya bersin-bersin, nah iseng cium bau itu, pernasafasan saya kembali membaik, lama-lama saya coba oles-oles kan setelah mandi, khasiatnya bagus, kulit saya makin lembab dan hangat, jadi kayak nya ini cocok banget deh di pakai di daerah yang dingin-dingin. Udah bau nya bikin rilex, di pakai bikin hangat, memang tercocok buat dipakai sebelum istirahat.
   3. Utama Spice Bug Spray
   
   
   
   Yang ini unik lagi, mirip kayak lotion anti serangga, tapi ini bentuknya cair dan harus di semprot ke badan atau ruangan biar ga digigitin atau di kelilingi serangga dalam bentuk apapun, kaya nyamuk, semut, kecoa, dan sebagainya. Nah, banyak banget sih yang udah pakai ini mengaku ampuh banget buat usir usir cantik nyamuk dari badan kita. Sempat saya semprot di kamar dan di badan saya sebelum tidur biar ga ada nyamuk, lalat, atau semut,daan so far emang bener, yang biasanya di kamar saya ada semut semut kecil, ini sama sekali gak ada dong.
   Nah bau nya juga bikin tidur saya makin nyenyak dan rilex, serasa tidur di padang savanna gitu *lebay* . Ampuh beneran buat usir-usir serangga. Cobain sendiri kalo ndak percaya.. :))
   Yang penasaran langsung kepoin sosmed mereka yah di instagram nya : @utamaspice dan di website : utamaspicebali.com  

A weird day because everything was coincidentally black and red, and that big boot tho, ugh feelin so rock hehe. I was dressed in Black and Red . And hey, just to make it all sound even more connected, I feel like my life is getting more black and red too. What does that even mean? It means, things are just getting much and much bold and brave too. Life changing into the good or bad life. If that change make you uncomfortable, you pull yourself against the change. But if that make you happy, you can stay as much you want to.

I believe life is change, everybody change, all people moving on.

The things I used to worry, the things I still worry about, the people I care about, the people I work with, they are all becoming clearer on what and who they actually are. And that's good. Allah works in very magical and unpredictable ways. And today I realized that the most beautiful thing in this world is the feeling of ikhlas; to submit yourself fully to Allah, to believe in His plans, to accept His plans, and to be grateful about everything He has planned for you. I love you, Allah. Always have.

Hi guys!!! Long time no talk or post or whatever. I am still alive and well. I feel slightly out of practise with this blog…like what do I even write about anymore? That’s probably the reason I haven’t been posting as much…I just don’t have much to say, and if I do, I post it in real time on Instagram. Are blogs dying? What do you guys think? Do we like YouTube more? Is Instagram just more accessible and the speed at which we take in information? Are we just too busy to sit down and read, or really write something? How can I be a blogger when I don’t even take the time to read blogs anymore? These are questions I wonder…stupid questions, really, because in the grand scheme of the world, they don’t even matter. But, in the grand scheme of my life, I am deeply a part of this world. I am supposed to care about what is new or what social medium is the best. I am supposed to be battling my way to the top, to have the most followers and the most success. And honestly, I do care and I do battle, but then I also dislike myself for caring too much and battling too much. Social media seems like it is crushing us all, and we all feel it, but we don’t really try wriggle our way out, and we struggle to see how it truly benefits our lives, but we also love it because it validates a lot of us and it gives us purpose and it influences us and inspires us…but it’s still crushing us and we still don’t really know how it benefits us.

Nobody starts a blog to just do it anymore. Everyone wants to make money from it. Everyone wants to find the quick and easy route to the top. But for a lot of us, we’ve been at it a long time and it’s almost more about luck than anything. I am not at all saying it’s bad to want or make money from social media, afterall, I do, but blogging has become this idealized job that anyone thinks they can do if they have a camera and a computer. It’s not an easy job though. It takes talent and it takes real effort and constant work. It’s a tiring one, that takes away from your real life and the people in your real life.

I am not sure how all of this reading right now? It’s not mean’t to be bitter or misanthropic. I’m more writing this for myself than anything. To just get it out. I love social media, but then I also dislike it. I daydream about disappearing from it some days, but then I also wonder who I would be without it, and that is fucking sad and scary.

Would love to hear all of your thoughts in the comments below. This post is not mean’t to call anyone out or read like I am giving up. I guess I just wanted to start a discussion. To see how we all feel. This space has always been about wanting to connect, so that I don’t feel alone and so you don’t either. To let us all know a lot of our feelings are universal, regardless of all the things that seem to set us apart.

I'd like to share everythings thats amuse me. Moreover about art, fashion and every beauty things that i see and i hope those people who has similiar enthusiact like me, we feel like a same things to make beautiful world, from surronded by every good people and inspiring people around you. So, here some design by Gaudi and Hava thats was cathing my eyes, and i wantt it all. :)

Some of you probably have known Gaudi Clothing since it was established years ago and way earlier than Hava, but, basically, they're from the same group, and created by the same designer, but Hava is designed for hijabis and modest fashion enthusiast like me. Gaudi has already available in some other malls in Yogyakarta, but this one is the first time Gaudi with Hava Colaborate in Fashion Show with awesome collection ecpecially for hijab edition.

So, here I will show you the incredible hijab design by Gaudi and Hava at casual and office look in Fashion Show celebrating Ramadhan month. Enjoy good people !





So, What do you think guys? :)

This weekend I think its a most my productive weekend. So many things to do. So many things to me for move from one place to another place,handling event or attending event.

This time I would tell you about  my great experience to becoming volunteer a Dresser at Fashion Show for Zoya, The Executive, Gaudi, and Hava fashion brand with Azzura Model Yogyakarta. Such an awesome experience! Literally, I love fashion, I really love to watching fashion show at runaway. So I think this is so great opportunity being a dresser with Azzura Model Yogyakarta  to estabilish me to know more into the Fashion Show.

I like this job, I dress the models.  After they are done with make-up, I help them get dressed and ready to walk the runway.  If they have more than one outfit to walk in, I get that ready, help her undress and quickly get them into their next outfit.  I then primp and spruce, before they head down the catwalk making sure all their look head to toe, no loose threads, and that they look picture perfect, literally.

I was learn very much experience there. As a dresser, being organized is a key skill. Not only will i have to keep track of the items that i handling, which can include accessories and jewelry, i will also have to keep your work station as organized as possible. This is so that you can easily grab what i need to dress my model and not misplace any essential item. That’s sounds like do “professionalism.”

Telling of backstage adventures at Fashion Show, I meet many stunning people there. I meet Hemasnura, young doctor, model, the one of women that’s inspiring me. I also meet Dinda Syifana, Sofaul Hidayah, Mala Inani, Sylvatera, and many more wonder women that’s always inspiring me.
At the end of event, we do chit and chat, we talk about our future, we know more about each other. Laughing, take a picture together. So much fun!

I really hope to being volunteer again  at such an amazing event and I would encourage any other fashion-loving readers to do so for any Fashion Show they can attend to. For me, being a dresser was a great learning experience for me, and I want to never give up going for this position.
