My New Favorite Pastime Now

Have you discovered your new favorite pastime during MCO? I think everyone can at least list one thing we discovered about ourselves, because it's like that to me!

I just knew that I loveeee being inside the pondok, as we call it, and mind my own business alone. It's too warm in the house nowadays. I always wake up in the morning covered in sweat. Don't we all? but that's not my point today.

The message I wanna get across today is, should I feel cold or convenient inside the house, I wouldn't learn how more serene it is outside. It took me a swift second to totally fall in love with the vibe as it's incredibly quiet too. As the MCO is extended, there are less cars on the road, leaving me with only the sound of cicadas, the chattering of the squirrels and the chirping of the birds, which have made me feel so calm and harmonious.

Now my routine is just about the same, to reside here under this old hut after Zuhur,  Asar, Maghrib, and today, right after I performed my Subuh. Dragged my blanket and locked myself outside of the house to read and continue my catnap. and again, I can't describe the tranquility of that moment, being watched by the small cute crescent moon, breathing the scent of the morning air.... phew. 100% would do it again.

Such little thing kan? Not like I'd never spent my time here, but it felt waaaay different, and better? Maybe because I have started to be concerned over how my future me would look back at this day, at me, of what I did, so there would be no regret, only an acknowledgement and appreciation to the time spent brilliantly. There are more in fact, but let's just save that for my future me to see!

Special thanks to Mak and Abah too sebab selalu teman :D we usually hang out together lepas kerja and sembahyang! and below are the pictures I'd taken this morning and evening. (sebab cantik hihi)

                           
                                             
The moon! geram.

Stars✨

I don't grow up with stories about stars being my fairies that could turn my wishes true, nor the magic behind them. I only remember wondering why these dots of sparkling light were always behind my tail everywhere I went and about which 'guy' that hanged them on the sky...

then I grew up a little, I learned about these cosmics in one of the Science topics called the solar system, and oh- they are called the stars.

However, that didn't immediately stop my curiosity, I was in awe, still am. I feel that part of their being is for a romantic purpose because every single time I look at them, I always hope that the person I love, or long for, or have a crush on is looking at the same dazzling star I am staring at, same goes to the majestic Moon.

Even at this age, I still do the same. I love searching for the brightest star among the bunch, tail it, and keep it on check when I ride a car, or bus- like the star in the picture, it was last night's.
