6 Months Long Holiday Coming to an End😱

5.28.2018


It has been so long since I posted anything here. Sure, I miss blogging a lot but when you're on a serious writing block, no "What To Write When You're Having Writing Block" can ever help you. I finished secondary school last year (read: post-SPM) and before SPM, I actually have a lot of things I wanted to do after SPM. I even wrote it in my journal for god sake, and I only managed to do 1/3 of the things on my list. And now when my holiday is coming to an end, all of a sudden I finally have the spirit to write and do a lot of things. Me is mengada.

So, what have I done during my 5 months holiday that is coming to an end?


01. Finish some TV shows and k-dramas

Although I think that I haven't finish as many shows as I wanted, I think it's enough, considering some of the shows are in series and there were k-dramas that had more than 20 episodes. Some of the shows I finished that are my favorites are:

1. I'm Not A Robot (32 episodes k-drama) This is one of the fluffiest and most heartwarming dramas I've ever watched💗 The actors and actresses really did a good job!
2. Rebel: Thief Who Stole The People (30 episodes k-drama) YOU HAVE TO WATCH THIS IF YOU LOVE KOREAN HISTORICAL DRAMAS!
3. Stranger Things (2 seasons) People say it's scary so I wanted to watch it. It didn't really scare me but the show was so good. I'm a big fan of the show🙆
4. Marvel's Agent Carter (2 seasons) Agent Carter is such a badass and totally a Marvel woman icon🙌💥
5. A Love So Beautiful (23 episodes c-drama) Because Jiang Chen's face is similar to my crush's face ðŸ™Š
6. A Korean's Odyssey (20 episodes k-drama) Made me laugh and cry in the same time. Tear my heart to pieces then put it all back together.
7. Friends (10 seasons) My most favorite out of all the TV shows I've watched💜💛💚💙 This is a very hyped TV show so I wanted to see what was the hype all about and I was hooked to the show since the first episode because it made me hysterically laugh.


Still watching: Riverdale, The 100, Strong Woman Do Bong Soon, Marvel's Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D

Honorable mentions: The Great Seducer, School 2013, School 2017, Pretty Little Liars, Suspicious Partner


02. Get a driving license

I mentioned in one of my last posts before this that I was getting a driving license. Alhamdulillah, I managed to pass the JPJ test and now I'm a legal driver. I got my driving lesson less than a month and I really thought I won't pass but I passed!  I'm still scared to drive on a busy road, so now I'm just trying to get used to driving on a big but quiet road. Recently I drove to my father's workplace in a rural area. Half of the road on the way there are still unpaved and it was so challenging for me. Luckily, I managed to drive back home alone although I cried a bit in the beginning because it was the first time I drive alone.


03. Finish some books

This is one of the things that I really hoped I can tick off from my list. However, I couldn't because I only read 21 books since I started holiday, lesser than my goal: 30. It's close, though. Maybe I can read more books before I start school again. My favorites out of all the books I read during holiday:


1. Note to Self - Connor Franta (non fiction, ★★★★★)
2. The Hate U Give - Angie Thomas (contemporary, YA, racism issue, ★★★★★)
3. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire & Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix (fantasy, children literature, ★★★★★)
4. Satu - Hamka Kereta Mayat, Arlina Banana, Paola Kira Ewusi, Riduan A. Dullah (short stories, contemporary, ★★★★)
5. Far From the Tree - Robin Benway (contemporary, YA, family issue, ★★★★★)


04. Declutter and reorganize my closet

This is in my top priority list before starting school. I always reorganize my closet, but I only declutter my clothes once a year because it is too much work. I need to classify my clothes to which ruined clothes that can still be fixed, which clothes are still good but I don't want anymore, which clothes can just be thrown into the trash. Too. Much. Work.


05. Voluntary babysitting


Half of the gang; the all boys group.
I've been staying at my grandmother's house since last month. I've only been back home for two days. When I was staying at my grandmother's house, my uncle always sent his youngest child for us to babysit. I also have other little cousins that can be such a headache (but they are cute and adorable and nice to play with so that's okay) to take care of sometimes when their parents are busy. And also worth a mention here, my little brothers.


Sigh. I'm going to bid my holiday farewell soon and I'm going to miss it a lot. I'm going to miss the routine although my holiday routine is actually pretty boring. My holiday wasn't how I expected it to be but it allowed me to take a break from being tired after struggling for my study. Now that my holiday is coming to an end, I'm kinda nervous about what's next. What's going to happen during my uni life and I'm also nervous about studying again because seriously, my brain is 'rusty' already. I hope it'll be just fine.

That's all from me today, goodbye 😊

Love,
Pypaa. xo

    1. the kids are cute! but me, babysitting, not really cute hehe. I'm not a fan of decluttering too sebab banyak kerja nak kena buat but I need to tidy up before leaving for uni. that drama is so good, it was sometimes funny, sometimes sad, sometimes frustrating. I totally recommend it kalau akak minat historical k-dramas :)
