2024 - The Year to Start Writing Again

Hello World!

It's been a while.

I thought I could start to write again on 2017. But I was wrong. My last post in 2017 was great! There are people who still read it till now, but I just realized it recently.

What happened with my life? A lot. Positive and Negative.

A bit of short story, I was actively writing blogs during my bachelor degree (2009) till mid of my PhD (2015). I shared many experiences in my life through writing blogs. Travel, Friends, Religion, and Knowledge. But everything changed when I experienced PhD depression. 😀😀 

Well, depression can be caused by many things. But my PhD is the main reason. I am not shy or try to keep this illness by myself. Because there are many people who experienced depression too. Maybe not because their education problems, but maybe other personal problems. The impact of this illness was that I was like a zombie. I walked around without purpose in my life. But, Alhamdulillah, I have family who support and love me. They gave me assurances and solutions that helped me went through all of those problems.

I was graduated as a PhD grad on October 2020. Two weeks after my dad passed away from COVID. Three weeks after my first lovely nephew born. Sad and happy at the same time. But I am still grateful with whatever Allah gave me.

Then, I went back to Indonesia at the end of 2020, leaving my husband in Taiwan, to help my family and started working as a university teacher.

Along the way, I found new friends, colleagues, family, and life. I am happy I am in here now. After soo many difficulties in my life. Well, I still have problems (whose not?) but I can accept them, grateful, and peaceful about it.

Now, I think the best time to write again. 

Writing has always been the place for me to share my thoughts. The place to share my knowledge. The place where I can (hopefully) help others in many ways.

So, be prepared. This year, 2024, on this Ramadhan day, I am starting again. 😁😁💗💗
