#ClspTravels : Favorite spot in Singapore!

Travel 12:49 AM

Helo again everyone!

As the title of the post, today I'm going to share my most favorite spot in Singapore where i can get lots of background color. This place is not as crowded and well-known as Haji Lane, isn't it a good thing?

It was back on the 2015.

Me and my mom were walking after we went to the 313 somerset. Then we suddenly saw this eye catchy yellow restaurant..or cafe, and we walked straight to it to take pictures

Turns out, it wasn't only yellow. I also found red, white, blue, orange, and the other colors which is GREAT! it was like an alley that have several cafes, place to live, and even school

And if you're that kind of person who has a big intention of taking pictures, yes, this place would be one of the best for you to take pictures with more than 1 outfit *if you know what i mean*

So, where is it exactly?

Around Orchard Road.

Located in front of 313@Somerset, the name of the road is Emerald Hill. If you see this yellow cafe, just keep walking onto the alley and take time to take pictures!

Thank you for reading my bloggggg! Please tell me if you go here because of this post and comment down below about your most favorite spot in SG! ♡

About #ooclsp

Fashion 12:58 PM

I still got questions about #OOCLSP in my direct messages, to make it clear, let me just make a short post about this

What

Basically, it stands for Outfit Of Cut Lakeisha Salsabila Pradhanitya. It's a hashtag that i use when i post pictures while showing my outfit as the main purpose

Who

The hashtag is mine of course since it's clearly taken from the initials of my name. But the one who helped me to decide = my bestttttfriend, Nadhila Safira. (I was once confused between ooclsp and clspootd)

When

Hmmm, i started it on August 9th 2016 at 18.31 pm

you : whoa so exact!

me : yup! because i still have the chat

you : why did i find #ooclsp photos but they were taken before the year of 2016?

me : because, first i was making the hashtag only for a photo, this one

but then i think it's a good idea to always put this hashtag on my outfit photos. So if you find #ooclsp photos and they were taken on 2014/2015, i actually edited the caption.

Where

#ooclsp was made when i was on my way back home, in the car, at night, i was sitting on the edge of the second row. Yes i still can remember it clearly

Why

Because i want to share outfit inspirations for people! Sharing is caring aightt. Actually, I've once thought about making an outfit account but i think i can make it easier by putting the hashtag and if i click it, voila! it shows up similar to an account.

How

How..i made it not with a long time of consideration. Just thinking about the main point of it

purpose = outfit, combine it with my identity = clsp, plus thinking what's in the hashtag trend = ootd. They both then gave birth to ooclsp.

Talking about the feeling, i was very, very scared and nervous because i'm afraid that i will be judge and receive negative comments. On the first year i made this, still sometime i didn't put the hashtag while posted the pictures, but instead i waited after more than 2 days, then add the hashtag. Because honestly, i was that shy.. like..who am i to make a hashtag

But then i dare myself to have a high self confidence and try not to think about others comments (i mean, not 100% closing my ears okayy). Because what matter the most is my feeling toward the activity and even i'm overthink, i always feel happy, even satisfy when putting on #ooclsp (believe me, i know it seems like a small action but it takes guts to type and share it)

Even farther, the feeling of getting to know the unplanned one, people's opinions! Some of my friends and even strangers in a random time thanking me of the hashtag because they are inspired and it really makes me feel blessed!!! It always made my day when someone pass compliments to me

So yes, thats about ooclsp!

Remember,

it's always scary to start something new and big,
but when you take out your fear and choose to start,
the feeling of curiosity won't chase you.
Instead, you will feel proud of yourself on whatever the result is.

today's topic : my current blues and how i deal with it

Thoughts 10:23 PM

Hello everyone!

I feel writing & sharing heal me, and I really want to do it more often. But sometime I'm not sure with what should i write OR it's the matter of time. As one of the alternatives, i think i'm going to share personal stories / daily activities / photos / maybe you want to suggest me? please let me know! And i hope you guys can get the good points from my post ☺

Shall we start?

...

These days I've been feeling unstable. Sometimes I am too happy and all in a sudden I think about all the problems then be sad and then..burst. Yes, this familiar and uncomfortable feelings. My closest friends and families are here and i know they are willing to listen, but at particular time, it's just me who doesn't want to be open. I really appreciate both those who always ask about my situation and those who already know that i don't want to be asked, it means a lot for me. Showing the sympathy is already enough. Because of course, there are things i want to keep personal. I'm not sure if it's the best decision or not, but at least that's what makes me comfortable.

I've been feeling overwhelmed with thoughts that kept buzzing around my mind
I've been feeling guilty for the things i've done to people and it hurt them
I've been feeling sensitive and melancholy in the same time
I've been feeling like facing lots of challenges which sometime i cannot breakdown
I've been feeling overly excited and then started to be quiet

But then I think, what is life if i don't feel the down side of it? There's no such thing as eternal happiness. Precisely, sadness is the absence of happiness. Even me, my friends, and the people that seem really enjoying their life have their own challenges that they personally face. And they manage not to show it and that doesn't mean everybody's having a happy life and you're the one suffering. So yes, i want to remind you guys that

It's okay not to be okay.

Everybody has their own way to deal with this kind of feelings.

For those who has been feeling this way, let me share my personal tips to handle time like this :

1. Remember that you're a human

At times we forget that we don't always need to be strong. Just admit it when you're not as strong as you used to be. There are time like this. As a human, we feel many kind of feelings and emotions. So yes, this unstable feeling is normal and you're not alone. We're not God that has the ability to do everything. Enjoy this uncomfortable feeling to be more grateful while you are on your happy times.

2. Have a container to complain

It can be a physical place, it can be an online social media, or whatever on how you define it. For example,

when i feel mad, i take a paper and pour my emotion into words

when i just want to grumble, i express it through my second account - and then delete it (at least, once i've express my feeling)

3. Do things that you like or even, LOVE!

Like eating the foods that you love, go to places that makes you feel content, meeting friends who share positivity, dancing, etc, so you don't have excuses to complain. I mean, let's just take a break from complaining for a while and enjoy life!

4. To always share the feeling

This is important. Keeping your problems to yourself is okay, it's sometime better if you are able and trust others enough to share your story. But if you don't want to, at least share it to yourself through writing in a journal and to your God. Personally for me, these two things always succeed on making me feel better.

5. Follow motivational account

I personally really helped by the presence of people who like to share positivity. (and that is why i'm also doing that, to help others while also helping myself). Take time to read and understand their words, sometime we only scan the words but not taking it seriously while it's actually useful. Account that i recommend (on instagram) :

@idillionaire
@thechampagnediet
@bossladiesmindset
@girlboss
@candisoeleman
@proud.project
@adamjk
@motivationmavia
@subliming.jpg

Anyway, i didn't write it by rank, just whatever popped into my mind. So please check it, i'm very happy if they also can help you!
