It Has Been A Good Year | 2015 Favourites

It's 2016. Wow. Nothing's really changed or improved just yet. But it was my dad's birthday a few days ago but I can't be with my family then which was kind of sad. Although, we talked on the phone for a few minutes (and it's freaking expensive) which was nice.

2016 has been going for a few days now. It's not too bad so far. I read a few books already, starting the year strong. Well, most of them are graphic novels but they are sooo good. They're like the chocolate chips cookies of books. I love them quite a bit.

Anyway, I've told you that 2015 was such a lovely year for me in my last post. I also talked about the wonderful memories that I had during the year. Now, I can't possibly not share my favourite things as well, can I? Well, I can but I'm telling you anyway so suck it.

Of Friends and Places | 2015 Adventures

It's almost the end of 2015! I can't comprehend that. It's so freaking fast. But, 2015 has been really great to me. I didn't fall into great depression, there aren't as many anxiety episodes, I experience a lot of really nice changes, and most importantly, I didn't die. Thank goodness.

Since it is the last week of 2015, I am going to talk about all the exciting things that happen to me in the last year. I can't really recall much because I have a horrible long term memory, but I can remember that the year was quite awesome.

I Wanna Wish You A Merry Christmas

I told you I like Feliz Navidad. And I take my traditions very seriously. I have been singing it at least once every time I meet a close friend. They know it's coming and it's going to continue at least until January ends.

Anyways, It's almost Christmas! That's exciting. I've said before that I'm not the kind of person who would get super duper excited about the festive season. I mean, it's nice and everything. I'm just not so into it that I decorate my room or wear tacky Christmas jumper. Let's be real, it's gonna be at least 40 degrees out in Melbourne this time of year. I see absolutely no point in wearing any kind of jumper, tacky or not.

It's All About Food

If you have been reading my blog for a while, first of all, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Yes, all two of you, thank you very much. But as you probably know, this blog doesn't have a niche. Having one blog to talk specifically around one topic is not something I'm good at. Trust me, I've tried and failed so miserably. Definitely not going back to those dark days again. Although I love books and reading, talking about it all the time isn't really my cup of tea.

It's kind of hard for me to describe what my blog is all about. I mean, it is not right to call it a lifestyle blog since I don't really post "advice" or "how-to" content here. It's not lifestyle, it's just "life" where I talk about what's happening in there. It's about things I like and things I find fascinating or exciting that I really want others to know about. Not that my life is all that eventful or anything, just things that makes me particularly happy or something I feel strongly about.

A Place That Understands Me

Since I moved to the busier part of Melbourne, I have found the perfect place for me to just sit down with my laptop and not care about anything else. Plus, the chance of meeting someone I know is very small which is heaven for me. Public libraries. They're great.

I have never been a person to get out of my room very often, especially when I still live in Indonesia. I have all the things I need in my bedroom; my laptop, a bed, snacks, water, guitar, and most importantly, internet connection. I only need to leave when I go to school or when my family decided to eat out. I have quite a few friends then and we hung out sometimes, but being an introvert that I am, I immediately went back home after we're done. I feel kind of bad now, though because I don't get to spend as much time as I would like and relish it with them anymore. I mean, we live in different part of the southern hemisphere now. They still live in Indonesia, though not all of them in the same area, and here I am all the way down in Melbourne. I wish I appreciate them more when I was able to be with them at all times. Now that I can only see them once or twice, at most every year, I miss them a lot. Anyway, we're getting a little off track there. We're here to talk about public libraries. Nostalgia will have it's own post in the future, so look out for that!

I don't have any photos of my uni library, so here's a blurry sunset photo :)
