DAY 730

This marks the SECOND YEAR of this blog! (Second year as in the amount of daily happys I’ve done, not the actual amount of days)

I love making these posts and looking back at them. It’s nice to know that there really is something good about everyday. And even if it’s small, it made me happy. And that’s a pretty big deal.

Thank you for being here with me ❤️

Happiness is not a constant feeling especially in this current world but to find it in the little things,gestures is what makes this life a little, more easier!

simple joy:

this monkey path is so straight and clean it looks machine-made

It’s raining, I’m sitting on my balcony wrapped in a blanket, drinking coffee and writing—can there be anything better than that?

Neil Gaiman Voice: "Yay! Fame at last"

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Saw my own post on the #azicrow tag and lost my shit.

For a person that gets forgotten and left behind at college, family gatherings, parties, whatever, knowing that people out there saw stuff I made and liked and/or re-blogged it (even if it is a handful of lovely neurodivergent fandom peeps like me) is the best feeling ever.

Love you all.

Meena. x

P.S. keep re-blogging and liking stuff on this hell-site (affectionate). You don't know how much it matters to those who make the content.

So today, something happened. It's such a small thing but I just wanted to put it out there somewhere. At the beginning of the year, I sat down and wrote somethings that I wanted to do this year, starting from the mundane to perhaps some slightly more challenging stuff.

We've gotten through half of the year, and I happened to pull out my journal, and come across this list. And as I was reading through, and ticking off a few of those mini check boxes, I realised how much I've grown as a human being. It's so easy to lose track of progress for things that people don't necessarily concern with "productive" but I think it's so important to keep check of that.

It made me smile, the simplicity of it all, and that as everyday goes by, i do actually become older and wiser and i- break free with every passing day.

this is a thread to remember (and carry!) the little kindness that i receive from people around me!

1. i asked a coworker how to do something. a while later, she came back to see if i still need help.

2. my friend willingly drive me around to eat together.

3. a work friend skipped a bought meal to eat out with me when she learned that i had no companion that lunch.

4. my team leader noticed me having trouble following the meeting and wrote the meeting minute for me.

5. my coworkers answered my messages about work stuff on the weekend because they knew i was on probation period, a fresh graduate, and an easily panicked person.

6. my department head negotiated with HR to get me more days off work, so that I have more time to prepare my grad school application.

7. my coworker helped me with math test relating to my grad school application (he just saw me studying and offered to help, saying that he loved math. i didn't come to him for help).

8. my coworker shared his breakfast with me when we went on a trip together. we had to leave at 4.30 am, he bought breakfast at a convenience store, asked if i ate anything, and shared with me when i said i had not.

9. my ex-coworker answered my messages asking for their advice, suggesting actionable strategies and sharing their personal experience.

10. my department head, when i was new at the job and made a mistake, instead of scolding me, told me that perhaps he didn't say it clearly so i misunderstood.

11. my friend taught me how to drive.

12. my friend made time to have dinner with me, then said it was her treat, when i told her about my failed test.

13. my friends send me youtube videos/ instagram reels/ etc. about mental health on a regular basis.

14. when i was having trouble looking for a job, my friend posted my cv on her linkedin. she didn't send me the post, or connected with me on linkedin at the time. but i found the post, and she said the nicest things about me.

15. my mom noticed me buying bánh mì from a particular shop and bought me one for breakfast, without me asking.

16. my mom noticed me stressing about a test and asked me to go on a walk in the park with her.

17. my cousin, when i told her that i failed a test, asked me if i'd like to go out for dinner.

18. my friend came to my house, took me to dinner, when i told her that i failed a test.

19. my grandmother was really invested in me being admitted to my favorite grad school and told me that she prayed for me every time she saw me.

20. my grandmother noticed me liking a snack and sent some to me.

21. my dad drove me to an event and waited to drive me home after.

22. my cousin knew i needed a new suitcase and bought me one when she saw that it was on sales.

23. my coworkers texted me good luck, early in the morning, on the day of my test.

24. my coworker checking on me, asking if i was lonely when my close work friend was absent.

25. my team leader gave me fewer tasks when i was preparing for my grad school test.

26. my coworker carried stuff for me when we ran into each other at the office exit, bought me snack when we ran into each other at the office vending machine.

27. my coworker peeled shrimp for me at another coworker's wedding.

Kak sua, my love! Hidup emang ngga bisa happy terus tapi aku beneran berdoa semoha kak Sua bisa ngerasain kebahagiaan terus tiap harinya. Semoga selalu dikasi Tuhan alasan kecil dan besar buat bahagia tiap harinya. Jaga kesehatan selalu kak, love you! 🤍

Halo, my luv ❤️ hahaha kaget dikit ada yg mampir ke siniii, tapi aku seneng! Hehe

Btw makasih banyak ya… aku lagi banyak merenung (?) belakangan ini. Kayak, hidup tuh lucu ya (anjay). Satu detik kita bisa seeeneeeeeng bgt, tapi tau-tau detik berikutnya ada aja yg bikin sedih, stres, marah, dll. Makanya, makasih banyak buat doanya! Emang hal kecil yg bisa bikin bahagia tuh penting bgt ya biar masih termotivasi hidup 🫠 Karena itu kan hal-hal yg bikin kita bersyukur juga ya. Semoga kamu pun selalu dikasih kebahagiaan-kebahagiaan kecil yg nanti makin numpuk jadi makin besar & banyak! 🥰

Take care! ❤️

today was the first heavy snow of the season where I live, and on my way back from class i drew many hearts in the snow along the sidewalk with my shoes. 2 people told me it made their day better and honestly that is all I could have ever hoped for, to bring a little more love into the world
