Love Language

Holaaa! So, some months ago I was curious of my friend's photo. Her photo was shown just words like Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Acts of Service, etc. Next to those words, there were numbers which I had guessed as a score. Eventually I asked her what the meaning of those was. She told me that those were love language and she asked me to take the test so that she could know what my love language was haha.

There are 5 love languages and I wanna describe each of the love languages based on 5 Love Languges. I take the description from the test I took for teens, so I'm not sure if this description is the same as the adults one.

So here we go! Check the description below

1. Words of Affirmation
Actions don’t always speak louder than words. If this is your love language, unsolicited compliments mean the world to you. Hearing the words, “I love you,” are important—hearing the reasons behind that love sends your spirits skyward. Insults can leave you shattered and are not easily forgotten. You thrive on hearing kind and encouraging words that build you up.

2. Acts of Service
Can helping with homework really be an expression of love? Absolutely! Anything you do to ease the burden of responsibilities weighing on an “Acts of Service” person will speak volumes. The words he or she most wants to hear: “Let me do that for you.” Laziness, broken commitments, and making more work for them tell speakers of this language their feelings don’t matter. When others serve you out of love (and not obligation), you feel truly valued and loved.

3. Receiving Gifts
Don’t mistake this love language for materialism; the receiver of gifts thrives on the love, thoughtfulness, and effort behind the gift. If you speak this language, the perfect gift or gesture shows that you are known, you are cared for, and you are prized above whatever was sacrificed to bring the gift to you. A missed birthday or a hasty, thoughtless gift would be disastrous—so would the absence of everyday gestures. Gifts are heartfelt symbols to you of someone else's love and affection for you.

4. Quality Time

In Quality Time, nothing says “I love you” like full, undivided attention. Being there for this type of person is critical, but really being there—with the TV off, fork and knife down, and all chores and tasks on standby—makes you feel truly special and loved. Distractions, postponed activities, or the failure to listen can be especially hurtful. Whether itʼs spending uninterrupted time talking with someone else or doing activities together, you deepen your connection with others through sharing time.

5. Physical Touch

A person whose primary language is Physical Touch is, not surprisingly, very touchy. Hugs, pats on the back, and thoughtful touches on the arm—they can all be ways to show excitement, concern, care, and love. Physical presence and accessibility are crucial, while neglect or abuse can be unforgivable and destructive. Appropriate and timely touches communicate warmth, safety, and love to you.

I bet after reading this you wanna take the test as well hahaha. If your age is between 13-17, take the test here. If your age is 18 and above, take the test here. For the adults one, you need to enter your email, gender, and age. Fortunately for teens, you don't need to enter your email. After doing the test, you can tell me what your result is so that I know how to treat you well based on your love language hahaha.

This test isn’t a game with a scorecard! The payoff of speaking each other’s love language is a greater sense of connection. This translates into better communication, increased understanding, and, ultimately, an improved relationship. (Cr: here)

Btw, the order above isn't based on my highest score. It is true that my highest score is in Words of Affirmation but the rests aren't in order. Since my highest score is in Words of Affirmation, I wanna spread a good vibe to brighten up your day :D (Cr: SkillShare) Cheers!

Rudy Habibie (Film)

Hi guys! As I promised that I'll try to update this blog during holiday, I'd like to review a movie that I watched some days ago. I watched an Indonesia movie titled "Rudy Habibie".

If you live outside Indonesia, you'll probably not know who Rudy Habibie is. In Indonesia, Rudy Habibie is known as B.J Habibie and he is the third president of Indonesia. He is also the seventh vice president of Indonesia. It is said that Rudy Habibie is the second film of Habibie & Ainun but for me, it is not the second because the movie is focus on the young Rudy.

Genre : Drama
Producer : Manoj Punjabi
Director: Hanung Bramantyo
Script : Ginanti S. Noer
Starred:
Reza Rahadian
Chelsea Islan
Indah Permatasari
Ernest Prakasa
Boris Bokir
Cakra Khan
Verdi Solaiman
Donny Damara
Dian Nitami
Pandji Pragiwaksono

Synopsis (source: Pusat Sinopsis)
Rudy Habibie tells a story a few decades before the movie of Habibie & Ainun. This film tells us the story of young person who has lots of dreams and love stories.

Rudy had a dream to succeed in making an aeroplane as it was a message from his late father. However, there were lots of obstacles for him to achieve his dream such as financial, and time. Rudy had eventually gone to study in RWTH in Ancheen, West Germany.

In Germany, Rudy lived within the limit and he was homesick. Rudy learnt the meaning of love, friendship, and betrayal from his new Indonesian friends who studied in Ancheen as well.

This film is so touching because I can see someone who really loves his country. I see Rudy Habibie as someone who never forgets about his hometown because he studied abroad in purpose of coming back to Indonesia to build the country. You might have ever heard that Rudy had ever been offered a citizenship of Germany because of his genius. Instead of taking the offer, he still insisted to come back to Indonesia.

My favorite actor in this film is Reza Rahadian who plays as Rudy Habibie. In my opinion, he is such a great actor because his accent is so similar with the real Rudy Habibie. He really enjoys being Rudy because the way he act is so natural. This movie is recorded in both Indonesia and Germany.

The duration of this film is 143 minutes and this film is showed in all theaters in Indonesia. If I'm not mistaken, this film is also showed in Malaysia. Oh ya, if you want to enjoy the cheap yet profitable, you should go to the theater on weekday because the ticket is only for 25K-30K IDR. 25K-30K IDR for 143mins, isn't that cheap?? Let me tell you that this movie is good, so that's why I write profitable.

I shed a tears during watching this hahaha. You might say that I was too excessive, but it really depends on each person's opinion.

I'd give this move 9/10 ;D

Holiday is almost over!

Hii guys! So sorry for not updating for sooooo llllllooooonnnnngggggg. Honestly, I'm lazy to post haha. So how's your holiday? This time I don't go to another city nor country. Actually, I went to Jakarta but it was just for a day so it wasn't counted as a holiday lol.

Unfortunately, holiday is almost over which means we need to go back to school and study. I need to tell you something, most of you might have already known that most of my after school days are filled by tuitions even in a holiday. Fyi, this holiday I only went to tuition for 3 times, so it wasn't considered as studying okay. Honestly, I hate studying but I'm thinking of having a bright future, so I need to prepare myself for the new term hahaha.

To make my holiday fun, I do something I love. Yup, I love take a flatlay. So let me promote my Instagram account which is filled by flat lays, it's heyitsgracenathh.

Please do follow! :) Thanks, peepsss!

Technology is Good and "Good"

In the past few years, we can see that technology has grown so much. The development of technology is very helpful for us especially in communication. Lots of people use smart phones to communicate easier with others mainly to the ones who live far away. There are lots of applications that offer an easy way to interact with others such as LINE, Facebook Messager, and Whatsapp. I agree to a large extent that today’s technology is so useful.

First, technology makes our communication with the ones who live away easier. In the past, we had to send a letter to those who did not live around us. For instance, in the past we needed to hand write the letter, to go to the post office and it took a long time for the letter to be read. It was troublesome but fortunately, there is an email today which is making send letters easier. Today we do not need to bother our selves going to a post office because in just a second, our letter has been sent.

Second, technology is able to connect us with someone that we have been lost contact for so many years. Facebook is an application that will help us searching for that person. As we can see that nowadays a 9-year-old kid has already had a facebook account which means the person, who you are searching for, use facebook. For example, there is my primary school friend who moved to Australia about 8 years ago and since she moved, I had never known where she was until I found her in facebook. I started to use Facebook Messager to ask how she was, where she lived, and many more.

In the other hand, as we can see that technology helps us a lot, we often stuck in our new world. We often ignore people around us and only focus on our phones. It is said that technology makes us close with the far ones, but we are getting far with the people around. For instance, we often see that lots of family have dinner together, but each member is focus on their phones. It is ironic how technology has engulfed all our attentions.

In a nutshell, the development of technology does make most things easier. We need to be able to use technology since it is very useful. Nonetheless, we should be able to limit our selves by not using it too much. We need to appreciate the presences of people around us and let technology help us to communicate with others away easier without making us as a slave of technology.
