Some Thoughts: Lately In Book Genres

More than one month I've been noticing that I caught up with self-improvement books. Or books that tells how to deal with people while improving oneself.

My attention to these books too, makes me realise how much I'm into biography genre, or books that author tells their story in honesty and the truth about who or how they are in life. Or what they've been dealing with as a human.. It's, somehow, make me feel connected..

As I said. My current reading is "Overthinking Tapi Buat-buat OK" (Overthinking But Acted OK) by Aqilah Masri.

Maybe like 3, 4 days now.. And yesterday, since it's almost 5am writing this, I went to a mall with lil sis. To which while eating for breakfast (although it was almost 1pm at the time), I saw Popular Bookstore. After had our breakfast, we both went to it. My aim really on books from IMAN Publication - to which I don't know why - but in mind just full with "self care and self connect with whatever (self's body and mind, people, surrounding, God, like that)". That's what I'm feeling like, lately. So, I kept on looking for their books. And yes, I got 3 this time around.



Got these!

When I saw these 3 online, most the last 2 - both titles caught me up. With current feeling that I have, I just feel like it. Yea... Maybe not in this few months that I'll be reading these, but that day will come. That's what I've been thinking, doing and holding on to while going around with my own pace.

Not only in reading. But in making my handmade accessories, drawing, sketching, making decisions and texting, even writing..

It's not ok, maybe, for some parts. But I think it's the need for myself to be able to slow down just a little bit in all of these.. In daily. Since life, in social media - since I'm aware about my things depending on my phone, internet to promote and sorts - need to go with how my body is. By this genre, I think I can learn about myself, related to and acknowledged. So it's the need for oneself with modernization today, to put self care as routine.. It's not easy for some people in what and how their situation in life. But I think, it can be done even for a small step..

I hope IMAN Publication publish more this kind of books. Amazed me for most that IMAN's books did 'call' on me. Because I believe, many can relate. Like, really. So far "Overthinking Tapi Buat-buat OK" by Aqilah Masri really is something for me. Once done I'll be putting up my thoughts on it.

Book: Overthinking Tapi Buat-buat OK By Aqila Masri

I finally finished reading "Overthinking Tapi Buat-buat OK" by Aqila Masri (Overthinking But Acted OK) , published by IMAN Publication, last October. And let's see what my thoughts on this one. First of all, my view is just as from an artist, crafter and blogger, and as a reader... When this book published, to be honest I got caught by the title. I didn't plan on to get it like seriously, because I have this feeling to put aside what I can relate to the title. The word - "overthinking"... But as time past, I started to have the image of this book in mind, and it's repeating. So I feel it and said, "I need to have it" with wondering what the topics will be within. It was more like a calling from the book I could say. And early last month - September - I got it. First of all, the cover illustration - pretty. I love how the choice of the style from the artist. The work is beautiful. And give the visual to what's the book about. At the same tim...

Some Thoughts: Morning Lately

Wake up early is good, I'm not denying a bit. With the sunlight and and cool air, I feel calm in every way. These past few months and weeks, I realised that I've been trying to focus on myself. Else than enjoying my latest commission artworks for a best selling author (I'll share about it upcoming), I too enjo my time with my mom who loves dramas, gaming, and cooking. For most I think I enjoy my time watching movies, back and forth gaming The Last Of Us Part 1 and Part 2. Feel good beat up some zombies with their weapons choice. Morning wakes up does gives me some kind of feelings.. Where I feels more to my mind. And so do my my body. Mood? Cool like that. My routine every time I get up, definitely my favourite drink, Milo. With 2 plain crackers. Around 12 to 1pm where I usually plan for cooking, which these days just simple one. Even tofu can be the protein source of dish. Like I said.. On my IG story and on WP blog, I want a balance life - between whatever I have to deal ...

Some Thoughts: Journey In The Year 2024

Crazy how times flies.... For real, it feels so fast I learnt a lot, noticed a lot, and for most... I let loose a little bit more than last year... So.... I'm writing this, for the start for this posting, where I'm outside of my lil sis's new place. She's moved to new area... And I'm waiting here, while it's raining and people are going with Grab for New Year's Eve holiday or vacation... Writing this while standing up, front of guard's house... Well, my experience as blogger after years blogging. But this time rare one. I hardly get.... Maybe I'll do it again, next year? For sure. Anyway.... Back to the reality.... 2024.... A lot of great time. And for sure is, a lot of not so great ones... I still, dislike it although I know, that's what's and how's life is... But not only of the time I mean it, but for most, I caught up with moment where, for most- people. And what's it's giving me at the time, the moment.... The joy, the pain, ...
