It’s been 3 month since i make a promise to myself to start writing once a month, without a much correction and less review because i’m afraid it feels like a responsibility. My goal is to make this place an escape for my anxiety to write. I try write in the next month (august) i really am, but end up not really like the result and want to change it in better way.

The topic should be movie/tv show and my journey of it from little kid until now, but it’s very personal and i talk sooo muchhhh and start to feels like an idiot. Someday i visit the draft and try to make it better, and i do it again in 1 weeks and again in 2 weeks. So that mean i have to face it maybe i’m a little of perfectionist.

I still watch youtube video very often but it’s for my reference to ‘something’ (we get to that later), i still follow drama in internet and i’m not learning something new, i just burn the spare time that i have, but it’s ok.. one thing at a time right? and that thing is my consciousness.

I come to realize that i wanna do this again and this time in a right way. I know i do much correction and review, but i make deal this time, by the end of the month i have to publish it, whether is done or is not done yet. I hope this new rules can make me practice my consistency.

So i wanna talk about my reason why i so often watching youtube lately, and first of all i’m happy to say that in short of time i’m no longer Floor Gang. I’m so excited because it’s been in my head since very long time. If u don’t know floor gang, it’s a term that Pewdiepie make because while he fixing his studio he make a new temporary setup for making video on a floor. So he called it Floor Gang.

So about floor gang, i do my work and everyday stuff on the floor in my small room, but small room can be good if u maximize the function. The problem is i have 2 big item that mom really can’t be bother or change, is wardrobe and bed, actually that’s all i have in the room, but i can’t make this happen if one of this item is still there or not replace with smaller things, i design the sketch in 3d application, try to fit everything, turn this around, separate this, change the position but still not get the result.

I have to measure everything to convince mom i can fit the table and other stuff in my room, i have to do research what kind table i use, what size and how much that thing cost, ask people how to make custom table but the cost will be very expensive, and if this about mom approval, trust me everything is arguable.

We argue like all the time whenever the topic is show up, and slow but sure his start to understand me better and have a little faith this can doable. So back to the youtube thing, in the last 3 month i watch everything about desk setup, room tour, and minimal setup. That thing become my addiction, cause i can’t stop watching them and try to visual that into my room. After that many hour of watching i search almost everything that looks good and search in online shop, if the price is so high i skip them, and if the price is kinda good, i keep them to fight with other thing that i found tomorrow.

It’s been my daily thing, watch desk setup, visualization it, search the tool, check any tips that help me later, how to cable management, what good for optimize your stuff, do i need to change the door to slide, i have to change air filter because this one is old and dirty, i have to go paint the wall and ceiling, can i change the curtains? it’s older than me oh god.

For my research i’ll go to every website who sell desk and chair, you name it, Dekoruma, Mitra10, Informa, Fabelio, and IKEA. Compare the price, look, and function, IKEA is what i think better for now.

IKEA is really have a good price and quality in the same time, trust me i watch every youtuber who buy an IKEA desk and their feedback is convinced me anytime. So i got the desk, time to search for chair. IKEA have the affordable chair too, but i saw many comment from youtube, they not comfortable enough.

For chair i realize that thing will cost as much as the desk, maybe even more higher. Someone say u must invest in a good chair because it’s affect you daily, that’s true, ask me who sit in floor for almost 12+ hours/day, i have to lay on a bit if my back start to hurt, and if i don’t have something to work on, i prefer to just lay down. So i decide to go with chair from Officescale, they produce ‘Office’ stuff like a table, chair, rack and other stuff. I found them in market place, and really like what they offer, from what i saw in picture and people review they do the job like comfort, ergonomic, and good quality.

I add another thing for basic accessories, like a work lamp so i don’t have to turn the primary light in the room at night, a monitor stand for my laptop because i need my laptop in eye level so i think monitor stand can do it well. I wanna add more but mom not allow me because he scare if i buy everything in one time, and i thought maybe it could be rash buy, and i don’t wanna go into that so i’m taking a break after this.

So all of the stuff is in delivery, maybe in 2 or 3 day they come and i’m already excited to try them, i hope that mom would love it like what i do in living room, yap i starting to become interior designer for my own house with a limit budget and debate with mom 3 times a week.

Ohhh btw i must have that green thing on a desk for aesthetic right? i already have plan for that, and is succulent. This pandemic starting people to begin gardening again, i seen my neighbor do it, my aunt do it, and i wanna do some too. I wanna have a little life in my desk and what plant can live in low light condition and not much need of water. Cactus.

I seen many little cactus in internet, after minute of research i found that cactus is part of succulent family, and succulent have many other plant that really good for indoor placement. I’m not decide yet what kind of succulent will i buy, but i definitely go with them.

Other reason why i go with succulent, because they kind a like me, i mean they are living things, they grow, eat, move and produce, but they demand so little from this world, just so they can live long enough to be old and grow another one of them.

Opss but they sometime get infection and we need to take care of them like cut the dried leaves, change the fertilizer and get them to sunlight once a week, hmm it’s not really a little don’t u think? haha u got the point. Have a nice day everyone.
