Officially Working in London

I haven't post anything for the past 2 months. It's been a whirlwind months, juggling between back to back holiday, farewell with my close friends and insanely working to achieve all my target list before my departure.

Yes.

I passed.

I passed the requirement process.

I am officially living my dream.

I am moving to London🇬🇧

Long story short. After the interview with Japanese Managing Director, 2 weeks after that I have to do another interview with the Local Managing Director (Someohow my company has co-director thingy due to some circumstances). I thought the process has done, so I let my guard down. Not that I expect to be interviewed with another MD and this time is British. Honestly I am not really familiar with British pronunciation. Even I cannot understand Harry Potter movie without reading the English subtitles. Nevertheless the sudden announcement made me anxious.

The interview went pretty well eventough I think there was something's missing compare to the previous interviews. I don't feel confident at all.

Almost a month after the interview, I got an email acceptance and a congratulatory message from London HR.

..................

"How about my visa?"

Not even a single happiness came to me at that time. It felt surreal to the point I was scared that something bad will happens to the visa application. I have an issue with anxiety and overthinking. For the past 3 years I have tried to control it with positive mindset. It works sometimes. Especially when I got to control the situation like the interviews for instance. But visa application works beyond that control. So I pray to Allah and constantly convincing myself

"If it is meant to be it will be."

"You've done so much."

"Let Allah decide everything."

and Allah said YES.

Different with the acceptance announcement, I instantly cried when receiving the email from UK border. Not much, only a slight tears because my colleagues were around (and a little bit shaking as usual 😂).

It felt surreal.

Even now. When I am already landed in London.

Trending Now: Celeb's Oleh-oleh Cake

Snowcake: Choco Banana Latest celebrity trend in Indonesia right now: Selling cakes! Not particularly a bakery with choices of cake or dessert, they sell cake as hand gift (or what we called it oleh-oleh ) in city across Indonesia. Since the trend has spread quickly among celeb, no wonder public interest begin to arise. Tons of backlash are swarming on the internet while some people left a supportive opinion. One said these celebs are diminishing local producers market, the other said they only selling fame instead of quality. But I think what these celebs is trying to do is very positive and inspiring, rather than spending their money for the bad things they choose to collaborate and making people's tummy very happy (especially mine😜) Strudel Malang: Apple As an avid instagramers, my explore is full of endorsement for these cakes and somehow I ended up bought some 😜 (Strudel Malang by Teuku Wisnu and Snowcake by Zaskia Sungkar). Here are my reviews fo...

Random Trip to Malang

Still in the euphoria of my brother is home for the next 2 week. Last Friday at 10pm, my Dad randomly suggested us for a weekend getaway. (Okay Ping I get it, you missed your son so bad. But come onnnn , it's 2 hours left until weekend!!!) Long story short, he is very lucky to have a kind and supportive daughter that always support him and his crazy idea (or am I crazy too?hahaha). So I made a quick reservation for flight and hotel via Traveloka and Booking.com. Being a lead arranger in most of office and best friend trips really improve my travel planning ability. If you guys needs any travel advice or itinerary ideas, please contact me kay! hahaha. All set except for car rental. I was like "well, I might be traveling expert but I know nothing about car rental" "no worries, we can take taxi from the airport" "does hotel rent car for city tour?" "how if we didn't get any car?" I am exhausted and zuperrr sleepy but traveling wit...
