Juicy caramel pop corn…
Salty pop corn with extra butter…
Pizza with extra cheese and lots of black olives on the
topping
Rich, creamy chocolate milk shake with extra whip cream
Snickers, Pringles, chocolate ice cream with almonds… damn I’m
so hungry.
I’m not actually hungry, I just ate, really. I just can’t
stop thinking about food. I was watching a movie and it just felt wrong to
watch a movie without any snacks. Well, the ideal movie night for me is sitting
on a couch with one or more dogs on my lap, while eating pizza and drink some chocolate
milk shake, then when I’m done finishing the pizza, I’ll continue with pop
corn, the caramel first, then the salty one with extra butter, then the other
snacks.
But how am I gonna enjoy all the food if dogs are all around
me? They’ll want to have some of my food, then I wouldn’t be able to focus on
my movie. Okay, no dogs. Just food and movie, that would be perfect.
I keep thinking of food! Like… all the time! Is that
healthy?
Wait! OMG! I still have the hot chocolate from the seminar! Wait,
was it chocolate or coffee? Please be chocolate! Okay, let me check!
Great! This is chocolate. And now I’m enjoying my cup of the
most delicious hot chocolate ever. Seriously! How could this chocolate be so
good!
I’ve been wanting to tell you about the seminar I attended
on Saturday. Well, I’ll tell you on the next post.
Anyway, for the first ten or fifteen minutes of the movie I kept
thinking of the snacks I should have had with the movie. But then I’m so drown
to the movie.
I just watched ‘The Light between Oceans’, and boy that
movie was… awesome!
I love it!
I haven’t seen the review before, but when I saw Michael
Fassbender and Alicia Vikander on the cover of the DVD, I knew that the movie
would be a good one, and I was right!
The story was very touching, and I love them so much! I fell
in love with their characters. I also fell in love with their acting as always.
As usual, when I’m so drown by a movie, I would google everything about it. So I
googled all about the movie, and found out that Alicia Vikander and Michael
Fassbender have been dating since the making of the movie, which is early in
2014.
D’oh! Where have I been? But, actually, yeah I kinda recall
that I’ve heard that they were dating before. I just forgot. I wasn’t that into
Michael Fassbender. Not as much as I love Alicia Vikander. That girl was
amazing! That girl was the greatest young actress, so naturally beautiful, so
adorable! I’ve been a fan ever since I saw her in ‘Ex-Machina’. She’s really
talented and always great in all of her movies. And her movies are always great
too! ‘Ex-Machina’, ‘Men from UNCLE’, ‘Testament of Youth’, ‘Danish Girl’, ‘The
Light between Oceans’, you name it.
And she’s unbelievably gorgeous!! She’s on my Top 10 Most
Beautiful Actresses list. Look at her teeth! So perfect, so white! And her
skin! Oh My God! The most beautiful skin I’ve ever seen! And her big, dark
eyes! Those eyes are super beautiful! Her body is far from perfect, at least by
my taste. But it makes her even more adorable.
Btw, when I went downstairs to get the hot water for my
chocolate, I found chocolate flavored Energen Cereal. So, after I finished my
hot chocolate, now I’m busy chewing on the Energen Cereal powder. One of my
favorite snacks!
Hey, you know what? I’m gonna tell you about the seminar
now, not in the next post as I said earlier.
So, on Saturday I went to a great seminar. Really! That seminar
was awesome! I usually fall asleep in a seminar. Correction: I ALWAYS fall
asleep in every seminar I ever attend. Every single one of them.
But I didn’t sleep on Saturday’s seminar. It was too
inspiring! I didn’t even feel sleepy at all. The main speaker was the most
successful young motivator in Indonesia, Mr. Bong Chandra. And then there were
three other great speakers: Mr. Kevin Osmond, Ms. Grace Natalie, and… for me,
the most inspiring one, Mr. Leonard Theosabrata!
They all have given me a whole lot new ideas, perspectives, thoughts,
and of course, information and knowledge. But for me, personally, I was so
amazed with Leonard, because it was the very first time I saw a speaker speaks
so bluntly. I’m so in love! No, not that way. I know he’s married. I mean, I know
you know what I mean.
He said he hardly ever read a book. He said he only read
like… five books or something, for his entire life! And he said he never bother
to pretend to be someone he’s not. He doesn’t care about branding. He is just
whoever he is. I fell in love with him with every word he said. Seriously.
I just didn’t know a successful business man could be that
casual. He’s really casual, not only the way he dressed that day, but the way
he talks, the way he thinks. I feel like he’s the only seminar speaker I can
relate to. He’s so casual, simple, funny, charming, yet bold, brave, and
somewhat genius.
Among all the great things and ideas he said in the seminar,
I just can’t stop thinking about what he said about the ‘Mindfulness’.
“Mindfulness is the art of conscious living. You didn’t have
to be a Buddhist or a yogi to practice it. Waking up and seeing things as they
are. A practical way to be more in touch with the fullness of your being
through a systematic process of self-observation, self-inquiry, and mindful
action. Mindfulness practice is gentle, appreciative, and nurturing,
heartfulness.” That’s what was written on his slides.
Mindfulness. Yeah, so I’ve heard. I knew. But it was so hard
to do. For me, to be conscious is difficult. To be in touch, to be heartful, to be focus on something is one of the most difficult things to do.
Some said I might have an ADD. And I think it is probably true. I mean…, just
read my blog! Read my entries. Read how I always jump from one thing to
another. That’s how easily my focus moves.
That has been an issue for me. I can’t keep focus on my
conversation with people. I can't even focus while kissing. But that doesn't really matter. Anyway, I just can’t keep focus on the present. My mind is (almost) always everywhere but at the present moment.
I’m trying to practice mindfulness in everything I do in my
everyday life. But I do have some things that I can do with mindfulness, like:
1.
Mathematics, pattern, and anagram
2.
Drawing, making sketch, making artwork
3.
Destroying things
4.
Playing games
5.
Eating
Yes, eating. I can stop all the activities and thought when I
eat. I’ll focus on my food, enjoying every bite, smelling it, taste it, feeling
the texture while I chew it, the sound of it. Sometimes the taste of a food can
even make me dance. Taste is like a music. I can say I have a pretty special
relationship with food.
That’s why I actually really hate it when people talk to me
during meal time. I hate talking while eating. But sometimes I just have to.
Okay, I’ll tell you more inspiring things about the seminar
when I got the time. See you later! Ciao!
