I Hope My Indonesian Friends Who Don't Like Prabowo Understand This

I hope my Indonesian friends who don't like Prabowo understand that my intention in congratulating Prabowo on his inauguration as President of the Republic of Indonesia is not because I like him. That is a form of my concern for this republic.

Don't think that I don't know or pretend not to know what he did in the past, human rights violations. I'm trying to be objective you know. He is the president of the republic now and he was able to get this position after winning a democratic presidential election.

My congratulations on his inauguration does not mean I am a nationalist, really. If I were a citizen of another country I would do the same thing too and now I am still a citizen of the Republic of Indonesia (you know what I mean). I care about the country I'm in.

I Live for Myself and for Other People

As we know that no human is perfect, I am not perfect either, and it's not just for one or two aspects, but many aspects. In other words, all humans have their own flaws, and it's normal. I, as whatever I describe myself, whether an artist or an activist, am not perfect.

We live for ourselves and also for other people, whether directly or indirectly, and this cannot be denied. I do many things for myself and for other people, of course for the common good. Whatever people want to say, whether they want to praise or criticize, I am a good person.

I don't really know what made me this way, to be a good person. I think that I have a very high potential to become bad because of the pressures in my life so far, especially from my family, particularly my mother. I may have chosen to be good without realizing it.

It may be difficult to not include morality in looking at anything, but as we learn more, we will better understand what is truly good or bad. It is innate to humans to be able to distinguish between good and bad, at least for simple things, then it's learned. Always learn.

If You Can Imagine Something Better for Yourself, You Can Create It

No matter what your current circumstances are, if you can imagine something better for yourself, you can create it. Just like me, I know that I can improve myself, I know that I can make myself better. I am doing it now, even though it may be slow, at least there is progress.

It hurts me when my mother says that I can only dream but I can only dream as long as I'm with her, depend on her. I always feel pressured by it. But I believe that I can definitely realize many of my dreams, not only for myself but also for others, for the common good.

This is My Favourite Indonesian Tea

You know, I always drink tea and jasmine tea is my favorite. Tong Tji Jasmine Tea, one of the variants of Tong Tji tea, is the most famous jasmine tea in Indonesia. The taste of this tea is stronger than the others. In these photos, this is the version with enveloped tea bags.

My Entire 18 Will Be Filled With Hair Loss

My self-confidence has been decreasing since late July 2024. This is mainly because of my severe hair loss in July and August, it was really unpleasant. I don't know what I did that made my hair fall out severely like that. I'm still confused until now. I'll just say that my hair has been falling out frequently since this year, even though I often stay at home, often wash my hair, properly sleep, don't drink alcohol, don't smoke, don't use hair dryer and hair straightener (I don't have money to buy these devices.

Huh, almost all my 18 years of age I've been losing my hair. I don't really want to include psychological factors like stress because that seems inevitable to me in this environment. That means that my stress is caused entirely by my environment. Last year, 2023, my hair was thick and strong, to the point where one of my best fiends complimented me on it. I was generally proud of my hair last year, really. This was apart from my presumption that I might have body dysmorphia because of some presumed symptoms of it that I have.

I have asked the solutions for this to some of my best friends. Since September it seems like my hair loss has started to decrease but it is still ongoing. I'm still confused if the way I comb my hair affects my hair loss, because usually when I comb my hair, there is hair loss. I always thought my way of combing was always right, to the left, to the right and back. The comb I have is only a common toothed comb, there are no other types, I don't have enough money to buy another types of comb. Hmm, if I had more money I could take better care of my hair.
