Dorm Alone (What to Do?)

You must be done reading my previous post that my holiday would end. Well, actually, it's right that the holiday has just ended on Sept 8, however we've received a news said that the lectures will be started at 15 Sept. I got Monday and Tuesday free for this semester, so I'm gonna start the 3rd semester on Wednesday 17th. So we can call it as an extended holiday. Absolutely, boring. I've been through 2 months of semester holiday, including Ramadhan and Eid Fitr holiday and it's reallyyy, kinda long. Oh no, not a kinda long. It's indeed really long. Don't know what to do with this 'extended holiday' which makes my day free (again) for more than a week. I asked my friend to make a journey to explore the beautifulness of Yogyakarta, however, they don't really serious to make it deal. I know my house is not really far from Jogja, cause it only takes 3 or 4 hours, but I feel like I don't wanna go home because it will make me less productive. Only watch a tv, or play internet, sleep, eating, and go bed again. You also already know that I have a mission I've planned, currently I'm gonna process it in Jogja, however the things are left in my house. What so pity I am.

Then, I began to think, what should I do? I look around my dorm, and I've got an idea! It also can help you when you've got yourself at dorm alone. So, let's take a look at these:

• Learn New Language

Learn a new language is always fun! Yes, it is. I've posted the things I wanted to do, learning deutsch. To be (really) honest, yes indeed I've learned this language and  got some materials to be learned. However, it only took few days, and after it I didn't continue anymore. So, I haven't done it, I know it was a foreign language I've learn since I was High School, however, I really suck in it. Means I don't fluent in Deutsch, my German is really bad. And by this boredom, I'm gonna (seriously) learn this again. For you, who want to learn foreign language from a really basic skill, Duolingo is a good app to learn. You can download it on Play Store/App Store, also if you prefer with laptop/pc, you can just simply click https://www.duolingo.com/. Unfortunately, it only provides 8 foreign language (Spanish, Danish, Irish, French, Italian, German, Portuguese, Dutch), but all those eight language is worth to learn.

• Crafting!

This is one of the things I like to do. I can't stop decorating my dorm and I always look for some ideas that can make my dorm full of crafts and DIY things. I really like to customize thing around me :p This may be a hobby and one thing that can make me happy since I know I'm a moody person and easy to feel bored and because crafting is indeed fun! It makes our creativity increase as you know also it can balance our brain.You can start to be an itchy-hand person by look at this website: http://www.papeldelarte.com. It seems like a heaven for a crafty person, especially for women who (naturally we know) love ever cute things.

• Make A Simple Sketch of Clothes/Outfits

 You can only prepare three things to do this,

1. Sticky Notes
2. Pencil
3. Your Taste of Fashion. B)

And then, let's start! Open your brain or look at the references you have. You may take a look at some blog of fashions, through online clothing stores, magazines, or instagram. Or maybe your own imagination and you can make an invention of fashion. Most of girls in this world (at least, ever dream about) want to be a fashion designer, and as a girl, outfit is one of the most important thing you could deal with. When you are in alone in dorm, this activity may fill your loneliness, it can be a reference for you when you someday want to go out with friends or your boyfie, or just start to be a fashion designer.

There are a lot of things you may do to take your boredom away instead of go out with your friends or take another vacations. It can increase your skill or your ability to do something. There are alot of benefits also. When you try to learn a new foreign language, for instance. You can add your confidence in speaking with people or just share to friends the skill you've just got and to teach them. Or you may decorate your room to heal your boredom and when you look around your dorm you feel like happy...it's my own heaven! It's fun when you can make it all enjoy, so let's just try!

Holiday Is Almost Over

Holiday is almost over, and my mission is a half completed. I'm rather disappointed since I know I could at least running my mission 3/4 completed. However, a half is quite good, it's also a progress, though. I'm also running a project as you know it's a confidential project as I never told you through this blog, but I promise to you all that I can publish it after I can do a little progress of it (and you might be surprised!). Well, it's a really quick post because actually I don't have any preparation to make this post in a good way, but recently I've been attended my cousin's wedding (and I'm so happy of him because it's been around 8 years since he and his girl have a relationship, wish I could reach that too). It was kinda busy because as a family we should also help a 'behind the scene' of the event and it was really tiring. Hahaha. I couldn't believe it that I was also involved there though not really much (it makes me realize that I'm growing and soon to be an adult person) And know that some of my families have been teasing me about how and when I can get married too like my cousin and who's the lucky person will be a husband to me and bla bla bla and it makes me thinking of it, that someday I will be a bride....maybe around 5-6 years later. Well, everyone may put a target on how and when or what's gonna happen next in our life, but it still God who can only decide..Okay, peeps, I've been in front of my laptop since I woke up until now (and it's serious). It's time to stretch up my body (a.k.a sleep). Time to go bed and to dream. Psst, I'm about to go back Jogja in this Friday! I'm really miss my dorm.......Psst, I've been also updating my blog layout and it looks kinda neat ;)

New Blog Layout

Hey! Meet me again after an almost-a-month-journey-to-get-fitting-up-my-blog-template hahahaha..Finally, though it hasn't done yet, but I got my blog -finally- customized! Maximized my really bad HTML and CSS skill, here you can see what's the difference.

Basically, I wanted to applied a clear and white template, I've tried to applied basic themes provided by Blogger itself and tried to edit a little look to make it good. However after I've tried, because of my inconsistent mind, then I intended to download a free template so that I couldn't very dizzy to change my blog's look. Actually, I've been looking for a free template in btemplates.com which almost all of them suits the blog, however I still didn't satisfied because I couldn't adjust the post and sidebar width, some of them also make me couldn't customize the colors I wanted.

Then again, I've applied basic blogger template. Tried it one by one, and choose which one I like the most. My mind intended to try editing a little html of the basic template and with full of my patience, I tried. I also looked for any inspirations. Looked for it on Google randomly. Well, it didn't really random if I typed the keywords correctly. I found so many new blogs that inspired me a lot! One of the most inspiring blog is envye.com. It's actually not a blog, however, it sells some template for women and it was really really fashionable! Don't believe me? Just check it :) and if you mind to buy, just buy and I believe that u'll never regret to buy hehe.

I also looked for some blogs with full of some tips and tricks,such as Blog Bulk, Bloggingtipsandtrix, Eliteblogpress, City Girl Searching and some others blog I've forget the name because I've found so many useful blogs with so many useful tricks. And here's the result! I haven't done yet and still want to build it again to make it looks better. :)
