200524 20:56. ✨💖 EID MUBARAK EVERYONE!!!!! ✨💖 i woke up at around 6 a.m. to help my mom cook eid feasts (opor, ketupat, rendang, celimpungan -- the usuals!) and we prayed at home. wore my favorite dress too! the rest of the day was spent eating and lazying around, alongside with calling family and friends. i love seeing and hearing them so much, even thru the screen. & LOOK AT THAT BASQUE CHEESECAKE MY AUNT SENT AS HAMPERS!!!!! soooo delicious but also i’m a cheesecake ho so it’s an expected reaction from me lmao
after napping at around 4 pm until about 2 hours ago, i woke up and decided to remodel my phone appearance -- i put notion and lithium outside of my “essentials” folder in order to trick/initiate myself into reading more. it worked!! i’m reading forces of nature & man it is definitely going into my list of “top astronomy books to make you feel in awe of the universe even if you don’t understand shit about physics” alongside cosmos by carl sagan. i’m trying to limit my social media consumption more -- i realize that i go to them as a source of distraction, and not to enrich myself. refreshing my timeline aimlessly. so instead of that i’m trying to find an activity that’s more “weighty” and meaningful to myself, i think.
i hope you’re all staying safe and healthy. i know we’re all in such a rough spot -- as an instagram post i saw said, on the same ocean but not in the same boat. so lend a hand to those who are freely floating or in rough-shaped boats if you can. reach out to the ones you love. minal aidzin wal faidzin, mohon maaf lahir & batin, semuanya <3
