Not An Imaginary Story

Its raining this morning. I got up earlier because today my friends and i were supposed to go hiking to Lhok Mata Ie. But, the weather doesnt support us. It is bright until 6.30 AM. My friends and i have been ready to go (dressed up and brought a full bag of all stuffs) and suddenly, the strong winds came with heavy rain. So, we changed the schedule because we dont want to harm and risk ourself. I have taken a cold shower in the morning and now, i felt thats such a waste. Its Saturday though! I should take some more sleep, right? :D Because i couldnt sleep properly last night.

But, I changed my mind and prepared my morning breakfast and cooked some foods for lunch and dinner. One menu to all day, LOL. I drank iced chocolate hazelnut + pearl from Chatime that left in the refrigerator for breakfast and i wonder when i will finish that 1 litre bottle. I rather chose milk tea than chocolate, but i ran out of stock. I still felt hungry and i decided to eat my lunch earlier. I ate my breakfast and lunch at one time. Its usual for me.

I ate while writing this post. I wanna share a story that happened lately to me. I dont know whether this is a horror story or a thriller story. The main thing is this is not an imaginary story. It happened yesterday, Friday, October, 2 2020. Its about 8.20 AM in the morning. I also got up earlier that morning because my friends and i would go jogging in Blang Padang but they suddenly cancelled it. At that time, i was scrolling through my instagram and suddenly there was a big sound from ceiling of my bedroom. It sounded like someone was walking. I was curious and talking by myself. I asked

"Who's that?!?". Actually, thats my way to realive my fear. You know what, it answered me in a cat voice.

"Meow, meow". Two times! Oooh that was a cat, i spoke to myself.

I didnt mind it until a few seconds later, there was a sound came from the bathroom door next to my bedroom. OMG i was shocked and went out. Actually, that bathroom door lock was broken and everytime there is a wind, the door will be sounded like the wind hit it. Exactly, the night before, there was a big wind and the door was so noisy. So, i tied it up and it worked, but why it sounded again this morning like the sound of wind hit the door from inside and i believed there was no wind this morning. I was afraid and asked

"Oy, who's that?!?" while knocked the door from outside. Like i said before, thats my way to realive my fear.

And you know WHAT!!! The door was sounded again like it answered me! It was sounded like either the wind or somebody hit it from inside. My heart was beating so fast. I never got this afraid before. Actually, In Sya Allah i could say that i am a brave person. I will not get afraid of little things. But, at that time, i was really really afraid. I couldnt think anymore and held the door handle strongly to avoid if there was somebody inside, he/she/it couldnt open the door, although i couldnt guarantee that my power was strong enough.

At a second, i lost my mind because of my fear. I was afraid if there was somebody inside, he/she/it would hit or kill me (Naudzubillah). Thats me. I am an overthinking person, my bad :( I ran to the front door of my house and opened the lock, in case that somebody broke the bathroom door and tried to hurt me, i could ran outside and asked for help. After i opened the front door, i came back again to the bathroom door and thinking what i should do. I didnt know that i fantasized it because of my fear or i really heard it. It was like someone was walking away from ceiling of the bathroom. It could be that cat before or maybe not (?)

I was afraid at that time, i wore my hijab and hold my phone and ready to run if that scary moment happened. I called my friends who supposed to jogging with me that morning. I told the whole story and they were worried if something happened to me. Then, they were on a video call with me. I said to them, if something bad happened to me. At least, they knew it and either helped me or told my family. They accompanied me on phone because i wanted to open the bathroom door that i tied up last night. I didnt have any courage to open the bathroom door at first and really afraid, so do them. But, i dared myself that i should and finally, it was opened. There is no one. Alhamdulillah~ but, i still really curious. I saw through all stuffs in the bathroom whether there was any weird thing. Alhamdulillah, there was not. But, what made me afraid was there is a patch of ceiling that is one and only in the bathroom. And also, what made me feel strange is why all happened coincidentally.

First, the cat and second, the hit sound from the door. I think it/he/she doesnt like to be challenged. I didnt mean to, but thats the way to realive my fear. I didnt expect that they would answer me. I just hope there is no answer, so i would think there was nothing weird happened. It was either only sound of the ceiling or the door. You know what i mean, right? :(

Back to my friends, they accompanied me to check any strange around the house inside and outside by video call. Alhamdulillah, there was nothing weird. I thanked them and hung up the phone. I still felt afraid and sat for awhile on the floor next to the front door while hearing any sound from the ceiling. The funny thing was i pretended that i called the police and the police would come to my house HAHA xD I felt so stupid because talked to no one on the phone. I was afraid if there was still somebody hid on the ceiling and anytime he/she/it came out. OMG my overthinking brain played role :(

My friends asked me to go out to have breakfast with them. After i felt my house was safe, i dressed up and left my house. We talked much about what happened to my house and possibilities that made me afraid. They calmed me down and one of my friends accompanied me to re-check my house. Alhamdulillah, nothing bad was founded. I wondered if i was overreacting. But, it was real i swear and really made me afraid. I just hope that was not bad person that tried to enter and rob my house. I would prefer that was ghost rather than bad people. You know why, right? Ghost cannot hurt people, but bad people do. I am a little bit afraid of ghost, but i am more afraid of bad people. Who doesnt scary if the ghost suddenly appear in front of you? But, which one is more scary than the bad people appeared and tried to hurt you? OMG i cant imagine. I hope Allah SWT always protect us from bad thing.

On the night, i chose to sleep at my house. I could sleep at my friend's house at that time because of my fear. But, if i did so, i would not come my fear as soon as possible, right? I have to face it, that my strong determination. I also have told the whole story to my family and my father said that our house is near to the street and In Sya Allah i will be safe. I called my sister by phone all night and she accompanied me to check all inside the house before i entered my bedroom, locked it, and went to sleep. And of course, i couldnt sleep last night. I didnt want to turn off the lamp because i was afraid i couldnt see in the dark. If the lamp was on, i could see all things easily. I am the type of person who cannot sleep when the light is on. But, for that night, i was too afraid to turn it off and it ended me staying up all night. At 3.30 AM, i woke up from my bed and gave up. I turned off the room lamp and turned on the small night lamp. At least, there is little light. I didnt get enough sleep whereas in tomorrow morning, i would go hiking with my friends.

Maybe that is the best plan Allah SWT has given and it was raining heavily with strong wind in this morning. My friends and i were upset at the beginning because we were just ready to go. But, Allah SWT gives me more time to take a rest because i didnt sleep enough last night. We dont know if i still go in this morning, maybe something bad will happen to me (Naudzubillah) because my stamina is down.

Thats the whole story i wanna share. I know this is weird but it really happened to me. Actually, i should calm and treat my overthinking. Because it can make me anxious and feel excessive fear that can lead me to stress and cant get enough sleep. Thats really a bad thing. Btw, can you count how many "afraid" words there are in this post? :D

So, i think i will get more sleep right now. Have a sleep tight, Ayu~ byeee :)

Covid19 Will Not Kill Us!

Guys, aku sayang kalian.

You know lah, covid di Aceh sudah menginjak angka 4000-an. Especially, dengan angka terbanyak dimiliki kota Banda Aceh dan Aceh Besar. I may not your family yang bisa ngelarang kalian, but i am your friend. At least, listen to my advices.

You have your own family at home, kamu punya teman di kos-mu. Ketika kamu keluar, nongkrong, jalan-jalan, jumpa dengan orang lain yang notabene-nya 𝐤𝐚𝐦𝐮 𝐠𝐚 𝐭𝐚𝐮 𝐫𝐢𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐣𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐢𝐚 𝐝𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐧 𝐬𝐢𝐚𝐩𝐚 𝐬𝐚𝐣𝐚 𝐝𝐢𝐚 𝐬𝐮𝐝𝐚𝐡 𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐮 𝐝𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐤𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐤 𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐬𝐮𝐧𝐠.

Bisa saja dengan orang yang positive tanpa gejala, who knows? Tanpa kamu sadari, kamu sudah membahayakan orang di sekitarmu.

Kamu bakal pulang ke rumah dan berada di bawah satu atap dengan keluargamu. Kamu bakal pulang ke kos dan makan bersama dengan teman kosmu. So, 𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐮𝐤 𝐚𝐩𝐚 𝐤𝐞𝐥𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐮 𝐝𝐚𝐧 𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐤𝐨𝐬𝐦𝐮 𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐣𝐚𝐠𝐚 𝐝𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐲𝐚 𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐢 𝐝𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐚 𝐥𝐮𝐚𝐫 𝐬𝐞𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐤𝐚𝐧 𝐤𝐚𝐦𝐮 𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐫𝐢 𝐲an𝐠 𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐚 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐮𝐤 𝐤𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦? Sia-sia bukan?

Guys, its all from your heart, Kembali ke diri kamu masing-masing. Kamu sayang ga dengan keluargamu. Kamu sayang ga dengan temanmu. I know, regrets always come in the end. But, if you realize it from the beginning, you can change it.

Di situasi pandemi yang kita belum tau kapan akan berakhir ini, tolong jaga diri kamu dan jaga orang di sekitarmu.

(1) Keluar secukupnya saja, ketika benar-benar perlu (sesuai protokol). Dont forget to wear your mask and wash your hands. I know its kinda hard to breathe and wajah kamu penuh dengan keringat, but ketika kamu jatuh sakit, 𝐢𝐭𝐮 𝐚𝐤𝐚𝐧 𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐣𝐚𝐝𝐢 𝐝𝐮𝐚 atau 𝐛𝐚𝐡𝐤𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐞𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐚 𝐤𝐚𝐥𝐢 𝐥𝐢𝐩𝐚𝐭.

(2) Tidak usah berkumpul-kumpul dengan orang banyak dulu. Hindari keramaian.

(3) Tidak perlu melakukan perjalanan, apalagi datang ke wilayah dengan high risks places. Its better to stay at home, i know its boring. Everyone feels that, not only you. So, its equal, right? Keep yourself busy!

(4) Hindari menerima tamu dulu. Back to my statement above, Kamu ga tahu riwayat perjalanan dia dan dengan siapa saja dia sudah bertemu dan berkontak langsung.

(5) Take your vitamins and jaga imun tubuh kamu. Eat good foods and keep healthy.

(6) Think positive. Kamu tidak perlu takut apabila kamu menjaga diri kamu dengan baik.

Yang 𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠, kalau kamu ga mau patuh dan ingin sakit. Jangan ajak keluarga dan teman kamu untuk ikut sakit juga. Cukup kamu saja yang menderita, 𝐝𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦.

𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐥 :)

A Journey to Mecca (Part 1)

Alhamdulillah.. All praise to Allah SWT who has given the chance for me to go to His house, Mecca. It's like a dream you know. Alhamdulillah sampai sekarang masih ga nyangka kalau udah pernah menginjakkan kaki di Mekkah-Madinah. Kalau dilihat foto-foto selama di Mekkah-Madinah, i still couldnt believe i've ever gone to those Holy places. Its like my soul lives in very beautiful dream.

Early 2019, my mother asked me if i wanted to perform Umrah to Mecca. I was really happy at that time and i said yes. But on the other side, i was sad and confused if i couldnt go. Aku seorang mahasiswa kedokteran gigi dan karena padatnya jadwal kuliah, i'm afraid i have no free time to go. Apalagi aku sudah mulai koas dan selama koas, semua pembelajaran terstruktur dari beberapa stase dan lama setiap stasenya sudah terjadwal. Untuk izin libur selama koas juga susah pengurusannya. Tapi, aku tawakkal kepada Allah SWT dan menjalani waktu koas ku seperti biasa.

Hingga tiba akhir tahun 2019, my mother told me that Januari 2020 nanti ada travel umrah ke Mekkah and she asked me whether i could go or not. Aku bingung banget. Di satu sisi aku pengen banget pergi tapi di sisi lain, aku berpikir bagaimana koas ku selama 2 minggu dan bagaimana pengurusan izinnya. Setelah berpikir panjang, finally, i said yes. Pada saat itu, aku baru masuk stase anak atau cluster pedodonsia. Setiap stase berjalan selama 3 bulan and I said to my mother In Sya Allah kalau berangkat awal Januari, itu adalah minggu-minggu terakhir stase pedo. In Sya Allah mudah-mudahan aku sudah menyelesaikan requirements-nya dan aku bisa pergi Umrah. Akhirnya, mamaku mendaftarkan namaku di travel agent umrah.

First, In Sya Allah aku akan berangkat ke Medan untuk manasik umrah pada Senin malam tanggal 27 Januari dan keberangkatannya dari Lhokseumawe. Sebelum aku pulang ke Lhokseumawe, i told my close friends that i would go to my hometown this Saturday but i didnt say why i left. And surprisingly, they (3 girls and 2 boys) were curious and came to my house on Friday night. I was surprised and didnt expect they would come. They thought why i went to my hometown because i would get engaged and didnt want to tell them. LOL, how could they think like that?! Thats because there is one of our friends suddenly got engaged but she didnt tell all of us. They thought i would do the same. I was laughing all night XD. I told them that In Sya Allah next week i would perform umrah and they were so happy and prayed for me, my family, and our journey to Mecca. What a lucky person i am to have them, my best friends.

On Saturday morning, my brother and i went to Lhokseumawe to gather with our family and prepared all stuffs. And the day came~ on Monday night, we (my mother, brother, sister, and i) went to Medan. My father drove us to Mosque and we went to Medan by minibus.

Kami sampai di asrama haji Medan selasa shubuh dan istirahat. Kemudian, kami manasik umrah seharian. Kami belajar bagaimana tatacara umrah, doa dan bacaannya, hal-hal yang harus dijaga dan dilarang setelah ambil niat ihram, dan lain-lain. Kami juga mencoba langsung tawaf di Kakbah buatan yang terdapat di halaman depan asrama haji. Alhamdulillah everything went very well.

UNBOXING MY FIRST ALTHEA BOX

Hello everyone!
Finally, I come back again. Come back with MY FIRST ALTHEA BOX in my hand! Hurray!!!

After a long time, finally i got my first Althea box and it came up with its SOFT PINK box. Actually, I'm kinda a little bit dissapointed because i though i would get Althea's Ramadhan limited edition box which its box colour is green but it's okay because it's also my fault to order it so late. I ordered them on July 5 which is almost Ied Fitri, exactly the next day.

I ordered my first Althea box on July 5 and paid it via DOKU Alfamart on July 6. The ordered status 'from delay to processing' was changing on the next day, July 7. It took one day for changing maybe because of  they're too busy during Ramadhan and like i said before it was almost Ied Fitri. They shipped my box on July, 10 and arrived to my home safely on July 21. It took 11 days for shipping. I know it was so long time because they stucked in Jakarta for custom clearing and i was like a crazy person waiting for my packet and tracking them everytime while praying hope the status changed soon. Finally, it really arrived to my home and i felt relieved because i was afraid before if my packet wouldn't come and actually it is my first order from abroad.

Here, my Ecargo Tracking and you can take a look~

And noooow, I want to unbox my first althea box and share it with you guuuys! I will also give my reasons why i bought them all. Ofcourse, i have some reasons to buy each item because i just don't want to waste my money to something that i don't need and also before i bought them, i had thought clearly and convinced myself. I also have read their preview before from another beauty bloggers. Okaaay, let's check it out!!!

First of all, it came with thick Fushia plastic outside the box. It is really beautiful and eye-catching, right? My address is also written completely and as you can see it was shipped from KR (Korea) to ID (Indonesia).

You can also find ALTHEA logo in it and for your information, it is not printed but a sticker. So cuteeee~

Hi There!!! :)

OH MY GOD!!! It is 2014 now. You haven’t written any post yet in this year. Where are you, Ayu? It had been 10 months since the last time you wrote post. Where are you hiding???

I am so sorry guys. I haven’t written any post yet since last July 2013. I was too busy this year. I am turning the third year of senior high school now. I am too busy with my school. What I do is study, study, and study. I just want to make my parents are proud of me. There aren’t any parents who aren’t happy when they know their child is success.

Alhamdulillah, thanks to Allah SWT. All my efforts were paid by Allah SWT. I passed Economi Olimpiad. Allah let me and my friends passed OSN- city last May. Allah SWT has paid our efforts. Big thanks to Allah SWT. At first, I didn’t expect to pass OSK, but Allah made me strong and believe. Because of Allah, me and my friends can go to OSN- province. Thanks so much to Allah SWT and here it is.
