Happy Monday everyone, how was your day? I hope everything is going well. Feel super great since this morning when I woke up. And as I remember, I was even screaming "what a beautiful daaaaay!" when I just opened my eyes, and realized it was pretty gloomy outside hahaha. Whatever, I should do this every day because it really feels good. 

This happy-good-mood brought me here to post another Monday links. Some my favorite links for this past week and I think that would be great if I share them with you all. Sharing is loveee, right? So here we go! 

(1) Personal Branding by The College Prepster
I never thought about personal branding for this blog, but this old post from Carly was like a ringing bell for me. This blog has been running since early 2010, I slightly remembered why I decided to begin this blog, the point is, I want to take this blog seriously. I am kinda curious how I "publish" my trueself through this blog for all this time, so personal branding is kinda important. And about business card, I have mine already since  Jesrisoles was born (I feel so proud when I handed my first business card and everytime I meet someone for business requirement, I'll hand over my card :P), but still I want to make another one. Maybe another design with the title "blogger/writer/entrepreneur/" under my name. Awww. 

(2) "You never know who you're inspiring" by Maxie
This post is like a little morning call for me (thank you Maxie!). Beside thinking desperately about how we are going to inspire others, please note this. Everyone's watching you. Every move you make, every words you say, people pay attention to you. We never know that our life is important for someone. So, live well. 

(3) "Oh My Coffee" by Dinda Puspitasari
Dinda's blog is my new favoriteeeeee! I started to follow her on Instagram because she has those cute illustrations and personal style (gosh, such a talented girl!). This link is a random post I found, but I was like "oppssss" when I read it. Oh my coffee, maybe I should cut my caffeine too? ): 

(4) 7 Ways to Sleep Better Tonight 
My sleep hours is kinda messy since I have this crazy working shifts. I used to go for bed at eleven, but now is really impossible to go to the bed on that time. I am trying to stack my pillows well, sprinkling my body with bedtime powder for baby in lavender scent before sleep (sometimes it works), and listen to my piano instrument playlist. I was thinking to move over my bed, because the position right now is really close to my working desk, which is not really a comfort zone (because my phone, my tablet, my laptop are near my bed, duh!). Having a really beauty sleep is hard, if you are a good sleeper, you are so lucky. I promise when I finished this post, I am going straight to my bed.

(5) Bali's Best 5 Hidden Beaches 
Andreas sent me this link and he asked me to seek these beautiful hidden beaches, I said yes. Bali owns much of beautiful, gorgeous, and romantic beaches ever. Some of popular beaches are full of tourists and I almost cannot enjoy the real itself anymore. Andreas will be back next week here and wish us luck as a beach seeker!


Well, that's it. As my promise, I am ready to bed now. Have a good night people, don't forget to stay awesome in the next morning. Sweet dreams!

Friday 13th

Hello everyone! I am bringing Friday's pictures in a wrap. Today was a very great day. One of my old friends from Guangzhou, Felly, came from Jakarta for her pre-wedding photoshoots and she asked me to help her and her fiancee to take more pictures for the pre-wedding photo collections. I never experienced before but I did my best haha. We visited some places, including Pandawa Beach, Ayana Resort, and then we visited some great places for our belly. There are some pictures are my favorites, I hope they will reveal them soon. 

Anyway, speaking of places for our belly, we managed to try churros at Beachwalk. Not too bad and not too pricey. Go try with the dark chocolate dip. And we also went to Gusto, the most popular gelato in town! Seriously, for you guys who loves ice creams or gelatos, you have to try this. Snickers flavor is my favorite. And again, it's not too pricey, at all. It's only 20,000IDR/small cup and you will get two flavors in it. You can seat indoor or outdoor, free wi-fi so don't worry. So cozy, perfect for evening meeting or chit-chat time with friends. They also have coffee, maybe I will try next time. 

It always feels so good meeting your old friends. We never met again since I was graduated last year. We really had a great time together. We talked lots of stuffs and shared some thoughts. Thank you so much Ci Felly and Ko Arnold for your time. Have a safe flight tomorrow! (:

Man, time flies really really fast. And it reminds me about other important works to do and I have morning shift tomorrow. Make sure you guys have a great Friday night, stay awesome!

5 Pictures of Tuesday 06

It really has been a while since I posted the last pictures of Tuesday. Now I am back with some Tuesday pictures! 

 (1) I was completely sick and feeling so unwell last Tuesday. I thought it must be work stuffs and lack of a beauty sleep. Thank God I was sick on my day off, I could rest well whole day at home. I spent my day with these essentials. Novel, hot tea, tissue and some snacks. I finished the book anyway that day, yeay! 

(2) Remember about this gratitude jar? I made this in the beginning of 2014. The purpose of this jar is completely same with those gratitude/thankful journal, write down everything you thankful for in that day. Instead of a journal, I write in post-its and tuck into this gratitude jar. Last week, I checked the jar and taraaa... pretty neon post-its colors pouring out! When I read these all randomly, I smiled a lot. It's really good looking back to those great memories. Not always about good things, sometimes bad things happen and yeah I just write them down and be thankful. Anyway, this piece is one of my favorite thankful moments (:

(3) Weheee, look at these awesome stuffs for belly! My cousin brought us some Korean foods. There are some snacks, ramen, green tea (which is very good, seriously), seaweed and so much more. Thank you so muchhh, cousin! Saranghae, means I love you haha :D 

(4) *mouthering* I have been craving for this called "Siobak Singaraja" food since... I don't know. Today was the day! We had these for lunch. If you guys plan to come to Bali, please let me know, so I can take you to try this. You will be thankful to me ((:

(5) My dear mom was celebrating her birthday last week. Since she went to Jakarta, we arranged a little birthday dinner for her tonight and daddy bought her some chocolate cakes. Happy birthday once again, mommy! Stay healthy, stay gorgeous, forever young and God loves you (:

It's almost midnight here but I am still up for catching a movie called Safe Haven. Yes yes, after I finished the novel, lucky me to have chance watch the movie version. I hope I can get up early tomorrow. Have a wonderful night and stay awesome.
