About Me

Hi, I’m Chandra 👋

Welcome to LiewLife—a space where I share stories, reflections, and little pieces of life as I go through my twenties. I started this blog as a way to express myself and hopefully connect with people might be going through similar thoughts, questions, or seasons in life. 

 

You’ll mostly find posts about personal growth, everyday thoughts, travel experiences, and honest moments that don’t always get shared on social media. It’s a bit random sometimes—but that’s what life is, right?

 

When I’m not writing, I enjoy cooking, watching thrillers, running, and sometimes dancing (though I don’t do it as often as I used to). I’m originally from Indonesia, and always dreaming of where life might take me next—hopefully somewhere peaceful, open-minded, and full of fresh air.

 

Thank you for visiting. Feel free to stay, read, and say hi anytime!😊

2024

Selamat tinggal, 2023. Aku di sini, menulis sambil mencoba mengingat kembali hal yang terjadi. Tahun yang cukup melelahkan yang dipenuhi dengan canda tawa dan air mata. Bertemu dengan orang-orang baru, yang beberapa dari mereka telah menjadi cukup dekat denganku. Beberapa kali melakukan perjalanan ke negara-negara tetangga bersama dengan orang-orang terdekat. Segala hal tersebut kini telah menjadi kenangan, yang kuharap tentunya, tidak menghilang dari pikiranku.    Mengucapkan selamat datang kepada tahun yang baru, 2024, yang menurut beberapa orang, merupakan waktu untuk menjadi pribadi yang baru pula. Ada yang bertekad untuk melakukan sesuatu yang baru, dalam hal pekerjaan, kisah asmara hingga ada yang berencana untuk membuat usaha sendiri. Namun ada juga yang tetap melanjutkan rencana yang telah dibuat di tahun-tahun sebelumnya. Bagiku tahun ini adalah tahun dimana Aku akan mengambil langkah besar dalam hidup, yang mungkin tidak dimengerti sebagian orang. Tahun yang kuharap ...

Life - 2

“ Live your life ”. Someone once said this when I voiced my frustrations. Simple words, yet with a depth I hadn’t grasped at first. I thought I was living in my life, but deep down, I wanted to scream, to shout it out because what you see isn’t what I feel. On the surface, it all seems fine, but beneath, the waves are churning. Pretending is easier than exposing the raw truth, isn’t it? Maybe it’s a lie to others, but it’s my way to cope.   As Adele writes in “ To Be Loved ”, one of my favorite songs of hers, “ Let it be known that I tried ”. And I tried, I have. I’ve tried countless times to live this life on different terms. Every morning when my eyes open, my mind races: “ What will I do with this day, with this life? ”. It’s not about comparison, not a measure against someone else’s existence. It’s about me, my life, and what it means. It’s not just about love, work, or family. It’s bigger, broader–something that stretches into every part of my being.   Someone else said, ...

Crossroads

Life is full of moments where choices aren’t just decisions, they’re turning points. And right now, I’m standing at one of those moments, looking at two roads stretched out in front of me. One path feels safe, familiar, wrapped in the warmth of everything I know. The other feels uncertain, a little unknown, but it hums with the quiet promise of something new and exciting.    There’s a part of me—a loud, restless part—that long for change. It’s a craving I can’t ignore anymore, a need to step into a new rhythm, to explore a life where every step feels like growth. I imagine what it might be like to wake up in a place that challenges me, pushes me, forces me to adapt. A place where even the seasons change, reminding me that nothing in life is meant to stay the same.    But chasing that feeling means leaving so much behind. It means walking away from the people who’ve been my anchor—my mom, my sisters, my close friends. The ones who know me better than anyone, who’ve se...
