I know I know quarantine has over and it's now the new normal era, but I still quarantining my self at home. It's because I just enjoying my time like studying and interning from home. Well, I some kind of a homebody person, you can say.

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought so many things. It forces us to normalize the things that we don't usually do and also give us the opportunity of doing the things that we couldn't do before. For example, I really wanted to write my blog frequently, but it's because I don't have much time to write due to my tight schedule of collage and organization stuff, so I couldn't write my blog frequently. Much worse, I ever write just two articles in a year.

Since I go to my hometown and spend most of my days at home, I can do so many things that I really wanted to do, but haven't got the change before. I could write my blog more frequently now, I could take a digital marketing certification, and any other things. I'm not trying to say that my activities at college have a stand in the way my self from doing such activities, but I just want to highlight the bright side of my quarantine. 

In this post, I'm going to share a few random favorite things for me to spend my quarantine. I'm thinking about making this kind of post into a series, but I don't know. I still have to think about it. If you find the part.2 of this post, then I decided to make it as a series.

The Alchemist

This book tells us a story about a young man, Santiago who traveled far from his country to search for a treasure. He wanders from Spain to Egypt, looking for a treasure that a king told him. He is facing a lot of obstacles while he tried to find the treasure and searching for his own dreams.

Reading this book makes me call my inner adventurous soul. I really love this book. I know this book from my high school best friend, Sifa. Hi, Sifa! if you reading this. She told me that this was a good book and I'm going to like the story. Turn out, she is right. I really like the story. This book is a "must-read". This book makes me want to travel to Spain and Egypt and Africa and anywhere that has a desert and dry place. I was really curious about how it feels like to ride a camel in the middle of a desert, how it feels like to see pyramids, and how it feels like to see a wonderful city with a lot of unique buildings. Spain and Egypt are definitely on my travel bucket list!

Since I can't travel anywhere, this book feels like brought me to the place inside the book where Santiago go and this book makes me imagining the places that Santiago visited. Oh, I hope that I can visit those places soon.

By the way, If you guys have any books recommendation for me, please let me know :)

K-Dramas

I've been watching and liking K-dramas lately. Now, I'm a huge fan of it. I really love to see handsome Oppas, lol. I actually watch a lot of it, but I think in this post I just want to recommend you guys a few of it because if I recommend all of my watching lists it will be a very long post. So I'll recommend a few dramas that come from 2020. I'm going to continue it on the other post, I guess.

I've been watching a lot of crime, thriller, and action dramas. I recently watched The Flower of Evil, but it hasn't finished yet and now I'm waiting for the next episode. But, I saw an Instagram post last day telling about the production of Flower of Evil that has been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I just hope the best for the drama.

I love layering my outfit, especially because I live in a city with a lot of highlands, so it's quite cold and windy sometimes. I found that layering was a fun thing to do. I can mix and match a few same items without feeling bored of wearing repetitive clothes. 

Layering sometimes can be tricky and hard. It can make us look bulky or it can make us look like a sick person. So, today I'm going to write about a few tips for all of you my beloved readers and friends on how to layering your clothes from my personal perspective. Disclaimer: I'm not a pro so this post is just my personal opinion and the things that I applied on my self whenever I'm layering my outfit, lol. 

1. Add some basic and play with pattern

Adding some basic items to your layering outfit could balance everything. For example, you can put a basic t-shirt underneath your tartan outer or patterned blazer or you can switch the positions. Playing mix and match basic and statement items can be so much fun and avoid us from 'boring' outfit.

2. Play with colors

Mix and match your outfit and play with the colors. You can wear a bright outfit with a neutral color. You can mix a dark color with a nude color. Even more, you can mix and match a bright color with a bright color as long as you can mix it the right way. I think that wearing colors that match your skin tone is really important too. To find out more you can click here and it will lead you to an article that I found may be quite helpful for you to find out more about how to match your skin tone with colors.  

3. Put fun Accessories 

To complete the whole looks you can add fun accessories such as hand watch, necklace, bracelet, ring, or whatever you want.

4. Put thinner layer inside

It's like the most important thing about layering. If you don't want your self look bulky, you should apply these tips. I think if you put both of your thick clothes on your layering outfit you will look like someone comes from the Iceberg or unleash you're living in a country that has crazy winter. 

Andddd finally, here are a few references on how to layering your outfit.
