Post kali ini jauh banget dari beauty review, tutorial dan semacamnya yang umum di Blog gue. Kali ini gue mau bahas mengenai kehidupan dan fokusnya mengenai hal Quarter Life Crisis. Mungkin banyak yang belum tahu Quarter Life Crisis itu apa, belum pernah mengalami atau sedang mengalami tapi nggak tahu perasaan apa ini.
I'm NOT okay, but I know everything is gonna be alright
Disclaimer:
I have no idea if it's good decision or not sharing my crisis. I don't mean to share my lowest point though, or being attention whore, sort of, nggak gue banget. Awalnya gue berpikir biarkan ini jadi rahasia gue sendiri, tapi akhirnya gue memutuskan untuk post ini. Butuh berapa minggu sampai gue yakin OK I will post this. Cuma gue merasa perlu untuk share ini agar kalian yang juga mengalaminya bisa tahu, ternyata hampir semua orang mengalami krisis ini dan bagaimana gue mencoba bangkit dari krisis ini sekaligus share apa saja yang gue pelajari dari krisis gue ini. Gue mau membuat hidup gue lebih berarti untuk orang lain, siapapun, walaupun cuma share my lowest point and how I fight it kalian bisa mendapat insight positif baru, gue akan senang sekali.
Anyway intro-nya bakal sangat panjang, gue akan berusaha menjelaskan from where it started sebelum gue membahas apa yang gue pelajari dari krisis hidup seperempat abad ini.

Pertama-tama aku akan share pengertian Quarter Life Crisis dari Guardian.com.
It is supposed to be the time of opportunity and adventure, before mortgages and marriage have taken their toll. But struggling to cope with anxieties about jobs, unemployment, debt and relationships, many young adults are experiencing a "quarterlife crisis", according to new research by British psychologists
Bearing all the hallmarks of the midlife crisis, this phenomenon – characterised by insecurities, disappointments, loneliness and depression – is hitting twenty- and thirtysomethings shortly after they enter the "real world", with educated professionals most likely to suffer.
"Quarterlife crises don't happen literally a quarter of the way through your life," said lead researcher Dr Oliver Robinson, from the University of Greenwich in London. "They occur a quarter of your way through adulthood, in the period between 25 and 35, although they cluster around 30."
