Living in Bali, Living in Heaven on Earth
Long time no post.
Always hesitate to write a new post (Typical of Libra, always hesitate).
Next month, I will celebrate 1 year work in Bali.
If I can turn back to May 2015, when the first time I started to work, everything seems so scary to try.
When in college, everyone said I'm smart, cool etc but reality said the opposite (At least, that's what I think when first day in work).
Like someone who lost a way, I start my work with don't know what to do and don't know how to response everyone.
Really struggle everyday.
Living alone without any friends or relatives make me know if being strong is the only way to survive.
And now, I can said to you guys, Melisa is change to strong version of herself. Many things happen in one year, such as knowing if my friend isn't really my friend, back-stabber is everywhere, something sweet to say in front of me can be bitter behind you, my dad was sick, break up with my boyfriend, got new crush but his behavior just make me upset, etc. With all those things, Melisa is upgrade herself to strong version. A version that never care about others think about her. A version who always smile even though she wants to cry loud! I'm so proud of myself.
This time, she just wants to make sure if every goals that she made in the first of 2016 will be achieved and she can be better from day to day.
There is one quote that always on my mind "You don't how to be strong until being strong is the only way you can do." That's happen to me!
Talking about my work-life, Thank God I work in Bali! Whenever stress comes around, just go to nearest beach, listen to the sound of wave, put my feet on white sand and the sun kisses my skin, all of those things are the effective stress killer. More effective than shopping!
I really don't want to leave Bali but I should. I must looking for another place to get new experience.
But this Heaven on Earth will be the best work place in my work experience.
Like this post's title, I want to say, living in Bali like living in Heaven on Earth.
See you on the next post! Keep strong good people because problems always come and go whenever they want!

Enjoy Bali
Hola!
As I told u before, now I'm working in Bali, a beautiful island.
I plan to work here till December 2016 and before it, I want to enjoy it to the fullest like explore all the places on my bucket list.
Staying 1 night in Ubud is one of my bucket list.
I stayed 1 night with Metta and we choose Deta Junjungan Villa.
This villa is very perfect for you to run away from crowded Kuta and the service is so perfect. They give you a free shuttle 24 hours to Ubud central. They have spacious bedroom and amazing pool.
Fyi, their bedroom is so suitable for honeymoon couple with bathub and frangipani everywhere. First time step our feet inside, we look like 'what are we doing here?' LOL. 2 friends spending a night in a romantic bedroom hahahaha
We spend time in Ubud Central to walk and enjoy the Ubud atmosphere. Another amazing thing is we walked for more 6000 steps! Hahaha
In the night we ordered pizza bagus via gojek app and watching HBO till sleepy. Ubud is soooo cold in the night. I love it.
On top of that, I can reach my one of bucketlist and I still have many plan on bucketlist. Metta will be go home and I dont have any friend to explore another part of Bali.
Sooo, would you be my travel mate until the end of 2016? ;)

Do you like you?
This recent days, I'm lack of confidence. I don't know why.
Smile, fluently in english or any other foreign language and always friendly are the most important things for my job.
All of you can guess easily what's my job.
Yes, correct. 100 for you!
I'm a hotelier. Work in the hotel.
I'm happy with my job. This is my passion and this industry is very relevant with my major in college.
But, sometimes, I always underestimate myself.
I always think the negative one. Normally, that condition is very ridiculous for my brain. You must be know the result, I can't act properly and turn to negative one.
One day, I scrolled my pinterest and found a super powerful quotes!
The quotes said : "Confidence is not "they will like me" but confidence is feel good even they don't!"
All of the time, we always think if all people around us must like us. When there are some people who don't like us, we think much about it and feel so worthless. We lack our confidence because some people don't like us. What a shame. We waste our time thinking of them and forget we still have many people who like us. And confidence means you must deal with some of your haters. I know it's very impossible to make everyone like us. They have different taste, opinion, thought, decision etc, very hard to make all the difference becomes one. Still, if you get the decision after dealing with many difference, the decision isnt the best and there is no guarantee that all of them will agree with the decision. They just outvoted.
And, other quotes that save my self development is "Never pay attention what others think about you. Pay attention to what you think about you. Do you like you?"
That quote really punch me on the face. After all of though situation in college and work life, I think I am not really like myself. I always underestimate them even they can do more but I always think I can't. How ridiculous.
So now, I think to a different way. I pay more attention to myself. I careless what others people think about me, I careless to think more if they like me or not. I always ask myself when I doubt them, "Mel, do you really like you? They can't like you if you don't appreciate yourself!"
So, here I now, in these 2 days, I tried to applied those quotes to my daily life. The result is fantastic! Melisa is become worryless, careless, not thinking too much, more appreciate myself, more nice to myself and struggling to be the best without try to get anyone's recognition. Because, sky is doesn't tell if it's high, all people will know. Same like me, I don't to talk with speaker if I already do something better day by day. People will know with their own eyes.
So, any quotes that help you more improve day by day? Feel free to share in comment box. See u on the next post!

Home
This time I want to share my thought about home.
Home?
Everybody has home that waiting for them to come back. Yes! Everybody has home even beggar that sleep on the street every night still has home.
So, what is home? Is it just a building with lil garden or fancy fence?
Here some definition about home that I found on Pinterest :
Home (n) The residence of an individual or family. A place of refuge. The place or person you want to return to over and over. when ever I'm with you, I'm home.
So, based on above definition about home, all of us know if home isn't just a building. Home can be place or person that we want to return. A place can be you secret garden or city that you love or coffee shop. A person can be your lover, your parent, your best friend or whoever that meant so much in your life.
Sometime a building that you lived in so long isn't your home. Sometime the person that being in relationship with you in a long time isn't your home. Sometime, people that hate you or live in miles away is your home. Because every people has different opinion about their own home.
For me, home is jogja, my parent, my dogs, my siblings and my bestfriends. Whenever I see all of them, I feel safe like I already arrived at home. But, I still looking for another home. Home to settle down for the rest of my life. Home that become my first choice when I'm in problem, when life give me shit, I know, I must back to that 'home'. Until now, I'm still looking for that home. Sometimes I feel like hiraeth. You know what is hiraeth?
Hiraeth (n) A homesickness for a home to which you cannot return, a home which maybe never was; the nostalgia; the yearning; the grief for the lost places of your past.
I ever had 'home' when in college. But, that 'home' is broke and leave me when there is a heavy rain, thunderstorm and tornado. So, I tried hard to forgot that home. I am not sure if I'm successful to forget if I ever lived in that home for some months.
I'm still on adventure to looking for that home. To looking for someone that when I see him on the eyes, I know I will said "Thank's God, finally I'm home."
So, what's home for you? Tell me in comment box! :)

Something new?
Finally I am graduated from my beloved university lho! So, I am officially Melisa Sanchiagoh, S. Par! YAY!!
Now, I am in Bali. Try new environment and looking for some new experience. I don't mind to compare Bali and Yogya. But, after 1 month live in this island, Yogya still win. That city still has a special place on my heart. Every corner of Yogya is romantic, like Anies Baswedan said. People who never live in Yogya will never know. hehe
I am home sick. alot. Crying after my mom back to Lampung and crying after my boyfriend back to Bandung. But, everytime I cry and homesick, I always said to myself "this is what you want. you just try to make urself feel usual with new environment. Maybe Bali different from Yogya, but Bali has something special that makes you want to work here" And that words work.
But, I am still not believed! I am not a student anymore. After almost 4 years study and now I must wake up and face the real world. No lecturer who assist me if I confused on something new. No sleep and eat whenever I want. I am still make myself usual with this new routine.
So, my advice for every people who just graduated, try something new! Move out from your old environment and try new environment. It will make ur knowledge about culture wider. I am not in mood to write a long post, so, good bye! See u in another post :)
