THINGS I LIKE TO DO IN MY FREE TIME

Nowadays we know that there are so many people who lives in this world, and we know every people has its own activities to do in a day. Based on research on Yogyakarta State University, we know that every person has 24 hours a day that can be divided to 3 categories: working/studying, personal matters, and free time. Free time is a time that can be used to be able to make someone happy, to improve skills, and to refresh someone mentally and socially. But the question is, are those people using their free time efficiently? we know that the more we grow up, we will have less free time in a day. So we need to use the time effectively and efficiently as I am to be able to improve skills, gain knowledge, and mastering a certain softskills to preparing oneself. So here's the 3 things that I'd like to do in my free time. 

The first one is reading books. Reading books is considered to be something that can boost your knowledge, and as I know that there are so many people who succeed in their life who likes to read books. The genre of the books that I like are Theology, Music, Entrepreneurship and Self-Development. Theology is a study about the existence of God in this world. And the word "Theology" is derived from the greek word "Theos" and "logos", "Theos" means God and "logia" means the utterance, so "Theology" means that it is the utterance about God to be able to define the existence of God. Music is an art form and cultural activity whose medium is sound organized in time, the music is beautiful because it is something that we can't define specifically but we know that is beautiful. The word music derived from the greek word "mousike" from the greek mythology and music serves for many purposes in the religion or ceremonial, entertainment pleasure, and aesthetic pleasure also. Entrepreneurship is a process of designing, launching, and running new business which is called the "small business" nowadays. this can help us to be able to manage from small business to the big one! so we know that every great things must have come from the small things at first. Self-Development is something that can develop someone to enhance the specific ability to master something, Self-Development books is often called "soft skills" in this era and we know that soft skills are very useful to help someone to succeed in their career in life. The example of the book that I like to read are Rich Dad Poor Dad, Cashflow Quadrant, Desiring God, Scale Arpeggio Encyclopedia, Smiling Investor, Good Strategy Bad Strategy, Master Your Time Master Your Life, etc. So, reading books is really fun!

The second things that i like to do is listening to music. Hearing good music somehow can make yourself feels good actually! I knew that people will dance or move if they like the song that they listened to. I love the Jazz, Bossa Nova, Gospel, and EDM when it comes to the genre of music itself, so whenever I hear those kind of music I would be very happy to listen to that song! Jazz is a music genre that originated from America-African communities of New Orleans, United States. Jazz focuses on the improvisation, so Jazz contains so many subgenres including something called Bossa Nova. Bossa Nova is the combination of Samba and Jazz, so we can see that it looks like Jazz but the beat of the music is kinda off compared to the Jazz. Bossa Nova was developed in 1950-1960 and very famous up until now in Brazil. Gospel is the genre for the Christian music that dominates for its vocals (harmony), Gospel is composed and performed for many purposes, including aesthetic pleasure, religious or ceremonial purposes, and entertainment. EDM stands for Electronic Dance Music that developed 40 years and produced for the disk jockeys, so its main purpose is to make the person who listened to it dance. The songs that i like are Jesus The Same - Israel Houghton, Let Go - Hillsong, Howling Moving Castle - Studio Ghibli, Lingus - Snarky Puppy. So, listening to music is fun and can make your body moves automatically.

And the third one is sleeping. Sleeping helps people to recharge their energy when they are tired actually, so don't miss that one! Sleeping can maintain people's body to stay healthy because the body needs rest too actually. Sleeping also can do the detoxification process in your body to be able throw the poison out from our body, so this process is very important. So sleeping is very important to maintain healthy body, recharge energy, and detoxification.

Reading books, listening to music, and sleeping are not only fun activities to kill my free time, but they bring a lot of satisfaction to my life. Reading books enhance my knowledge and develop my skills in reading. Listening to music helps me to be able to relax, stay in a good mood to enjoy the day.
