Pindah 'Rumah'

Halo semuanya :D
Sebelumnya aku mau minta maaf dulu, karena sudah lamaa banget nggak update apa-apa. YouTube enggak, blog juga enggak. Karena banyak sekali kesibukan yang kulakukan di bulan-bulan ini. Bulan lalu, aku sempat bikin komik di Line Webtoon Contest, lho! Judulnya Thea's Thoughts. Buat kamu yang sudah membacanya, terima kasih! Waktu dan komentar kalian sangat kuhargai, karena telah membaca dan meluangkan waktu ekstra untuk add a comment. Aku sadar, masih banyak sekali kekurangan di komikku ini. Jadi sambil membuatnya, aku juga tetap melakukan pengembangan-pengembangan dalam komikku. Semoga para pembaca terhibur, ya :) Dan maaf juga, karena nggak update komik hampir 2 minggu lamanya, dikarenakan aku pindah 'rumah'.
Seperti yang kuutarakan di artikel sebelum-sebelumnya, aku hendak kuliah di negara tetangga, Singapura. Kenapa kudu jauh-jauh sih? Pertama-tama, supaya aku belajar mandiri. Aku memilih Singapura karena aku merasa lebih nyaman untuk belajar mandiri di sini. Trasportasi umum di Singapura sangat mudah dijangkau, dapat diandalkan, dan lumayan terjamin keamanannya. Sekedar menambah wawasan, inilah transportasi paling umum di Singapura:

MRT (Sumber: images.google.com)
Bus (Sumber: images.google.com)
Taxi (Sumber: images.google.com)
Aku menetap sementara di Singapura sejak hari Senin lalu. Dan beberapa hari sebelum keberangkatan aku sibuk mempersiapkan apa saja yang akan kubutuhkan nantinya. Saat ini aku tinggal di daerah yang bernama Novena, termasuk Singapura bagian tengah. Disini aku lebih sering menggunakan bus ketimbang MRT, mengingat jarak tempat tinggalku tidak terlalu jauh. Aku tinggal di sebuah kos-kosan. Harga transportasi umum di Singapura relatif terjangkau. Untuk jarak dari kos ke kampusku, hanya perlu 79 sen (sekitar 8 ribuan). Hmm.. Saat ini aku memang masih proses adaptasi, tapi aku bisa bagikan beberapa pengetahuan yang kuketahui tentang Singapura nantinya. Berhubung aku masih sedikit homesick, jadi mari kita akhiri dulu artikel kali ini :D sampai ketemu di artikel berikutnya!

Embracing Long-Form Conversations: My Thoughts on Daniel Priestley and Steven Bartlett’s Insights

Hello everyone! Happy 2025! I hope you’re doing well. Today, I want to share my personal reflections on an interesting conversation between Daniel Priestley and Steven Bartlett from The Diary of a CEO . They discussed why podcasts and long-form, unscripted content are becoming so popular. This topic is definitely outside of my usual day-to-day—after all, I don't own a company, nor do I work in broadcasting. I’m a cook, but I still find this discussion very insightful. You can access the full video here . *** Why Do People Want Longer Content? We live in a world full of quick social media updates, be it in the form of shorts, reels, or something else. Personally, I enjoy the convenience of bite-sized videos. I can't deny that it feels so satisfying and entertaining at the same time (more on this maybe next time). But I’ve also noticed that short clips often lack depth. Daniel suggests that, because there’s so much confusion and debate about “misinformation,” people want longer, ...

Sumba Day 1: When the Plan Fell Apart Before I Even Left the Airport

After spending ten days in Sumba and two days in Sabu Island, I came home with hundreds of photos, countless stories, and a notebook full of thoughts that I did not want to forget. So here I am, beginning a new travel series. Let's start with Day One. And fittingly, Day One did not go according to plan. A Trip Years in the Making The idea of visiting Sumba was not new. My dad had been asking to go for years. I honestly cannot remember when the first conversation happened anymore, but I know it was sometime after COVID. Every year, something came up. Plans changed. Priorities shifted. The trip was postponed again and again. This year, we finally stopped delaying it. For those curious, our flight from Denpasar to Tambolaka cost approximately AUD 115.22 per person, or around IDR 1.4 million. After weeks of planning, arranging accommodations, coordinating transport, and carefully building a ten-day itinerary, we were finally on our way. Or so I thought. The First Surprise One of the pl...

Notes on Naval Ravikant

I recently listened to another Chris Williamson's podcast. This time, it's with Naval Ravikant. I decided to write down the ideas that stood out to me. Naval speaks about life in a clear and practical way. He talks about making long-term decisions carefully, learning through iteration, handling stress and anxiety, and finding happiness without ego. His ideas combine philosophy and business thinking in a simple but powerful way. This post is a personal reference so I can return to these lessons and review them in the future. This is actually only half of the podcast content that I listened to, but it has already brought me so much clarity about life in general. Four-Year Decisions: The Compounding Effect of Commitment Naval often emphasizes that decisions requiring long-term commitment must be treated really seriously. A four-year decision is rarely just about four years because it compounds. For example, choosing a city to live in affects: The peer group you encounter Yo...
