“There she is, doing what she does best.”


My definition of doing what best might be the alliance of doing something you’re actually good at and doing it with your heart, fully. I once tweeted “I really wanna do what I like to do, not only what I’m good at. Seriously.” That was actually because I kind of felt a lil missing piece when I worked as an intern copywriter and joined the creative team in one advertising agency in Jakarta. Like doing thing with all my physical energy and power but not with my full heart. The output might be just good, but still, with heart I can feel that it could be better. 


7 radio ads in a day? we kinda did it.
That yes it was my 10 out of 10, but maybe I don’t feel the passion. I did my best there, for the sake of the task and I felt challenged, I felt the heat that someone (my team) pushed to me, that I should brought them what they expected me to give. 


But I love the team, so fine and freakkkin fun! Nice talented people, and my creative director is hmmm inspiring (won’t take his lead for granted but definitely will absorb his limitless great thoughts).

Or was it just an illusion? That actually you can enjoy everything you do, that passion can be everything you choose? Whatever.

I just feel that when I look back my journey in Kalimantan, not only I found things I’m good at (like teaching kids), but also things I put my heart into. There, somewhere around Kalimantan jungle and the deep blue sea, I found my peace.
