2020 was a very very tough year for all of us. I lost my mom after years fighting with diabetic that lead to kidney failure. The global Covid-19 pandemic also put a heavy blow to the world society, economic and i think also politic.

It’s not done yet as today in 2021, but i hope it can be getting better and we’re getting smarter and wiser to make it happen.

One big change from this pandemic is how we work. Instead going to the office, most of us are required to work remotely from home. Well, it’s not applied to everybody but for people who work in IT field like me, WFH is not a new thing. I have friends that literally working remotely while traveling around the globe most of the time.

And it’s been 12+ months from March 2020 until now April 2021 i’ve been working remotely from home. Well, there was time when i’m allowed to go to the office with max team capacity 25%-50% on site. But literally i let my team work remotely full time including from their home town.

From these last 12 months, i reliazed i made quite a change in my house for WFH. From changing internet providers 3 times up until bought 4 desks and relayoutin my living room.

• April 2020

I literally did have a “working” desk previously. There was only a small coffee table nex to the couch. It was OK in the first week, but the pandemic wont last for 1-2 weeks and i need proper table for typing on my little Macbook 12″. So i bought a small “laptop desk”. IDR 250k something.

So the coffe table is at the left side of the couch and Misty use to sleep on there as well as using it as ladder to climb on the couch and to my shoulder. Misty is a blind stray kitten i found outside my house. Other kitties used to join me on the couch while i’m watching TV, but it’s now kind of annoying and distracting since i had to work.
