和你用完了晚餐陪你走一段

这条小巷怎么走不完

能够说的都说完没话题别勉强

分开了那么久有什么遗憾

都应该遗忘

爱不爱你我心里有数

反正不能回到最初

原谅是一种天赋

寂寞的话我也懂得应付

没有谁比较无辜

两人在一起不一定幸福

你在谁的国度我不想在乎

其实没有你想象那么的严重

你离开我没破坏什么

时间的疗伤作用你不得不认同

我们还是朋友就只是朋友

现在到以后

爱不爱你我心里有数

反正不能回到最初

原谅是一种天赋

寂寞的话我也懂得应付

没有谁比较无辜

两人在一起不一定幸福

你在谁的国度我不想在乎

爱不爱你我心里有数

反正不能回到最初

原谅是一种天赋

寂寞的话我也懂得应付

没有谁比较无辜

两人在一起不一定幸福

你在谁的国度我不想在乎

This is my first trip with life-long bestfriends after i moved to Jakarta, it is incredibly memorable! Our plan at first, was to go to Bangkok.. We already booked the accomodation and bought the ticket to Bangkok, but while we are counting the days to Bangkok, there are unfortunate accident happened to Bangkok cos of dreadful drought (ps:pray for Bangkok) so in the last minute, we decided to go to Djogjakarta and visit one of the 7 wonders of the world,Borobudur. Since this is our first time there, we really anticipated our trip!Although there are some small disputes before going there,still,we get through it cos great friends bond in woe and joy!

We went to Goa Pindul on the last day before our evening flight, cos on the last night staying at Djogja, some local told us about that place we shouldnt missed to go..Cave tubing is an once in lifetime experience i bet?Great outbound and a real close to nature!you might not know what it is inside the cave but that is the excitement which gives delirious thrill and it was my first time jumping off from a not really tall cliff but a good try cos i dont really know how to swim, so it's a 50-50 of boldness..

We got the chance to see the silver workshop where the silver artist( by the way the skills are inherited from the generation through generation, so they are born to be silver artist) are well adepted and one piece of work can cost up to Rp 45 million :]
I also got the chance to do batik painting!they are amazing woman with beautiful craft~

We also managed to go to Keraton (the Sultan Palace) and learned many historical artefacts or story of Java kingdom, and one thing that captured me is the camera that used by Sultan Hamengku Buwono lX, an epic polaroid XD

And Borobudur, one of the amazing and wondrous thing Man in this world can created, every walls has its stories and we were lucky to have a capable guide who tell us many informations that we might not come across on our daily lives. In addition,we had a "romantic" ambience at Borobudur due to the rain!outstanding colorful umbrella eh,behind the gray walls..

Thanks to Bobby and Cynthia, we got to see the famous Merapi volcano at last, because each time when we want to go there, rain poured heavily in Djogja and it was very dangerous to go there because of hard haze.
That 3 kids standing on the edge, infront of them is dont know how many thousand feets of ravine. We dont even dare to go anywhere near there.
not even a parental guidance..what if the city kids who are standing there, imagine it?

We reached Merapi almost in the late noon, so the haze started to blanket the volcano slowly, cant really see the tip of the volcano but at some point we were able to see the mouth where the monstrous larva come out.

And the foods in Djogja obviously good!! and they had some creative and unique restaurants, such as Jejamuran(all foods based on mushrooms,delicioushroom!), Artemy Gelato (nice gelato and elegant interior), Kali milk (fresh milk with many flavours,all worth trying) and one unique restaurant that serves a gigantic porridge with a very reasonable price,you can find it only at House of Raminten.......

You won’t shed any tears no matter how hard it gets

Your tenderness won’t let anyone around you be sad

Because it contains an undefeatable strength

When I look in your eyes

Your thoughts come to me without words

I won’t give up, I’ll keep trying, you say

As you show me gentle smiles

Your smiling face shines brighter than anyone

Even the cloudy sky clears up

I’ve climbed over countless high walls

So nothing scares me, I’m not alone

We’re all living under the sky

I regretted not being able to reply

All the days I cried alone are connected to the “present”

Now they’re trying to make a large flower bloom

Stuffed in your small chest

Lies a heart as huge as the sky

Don’t cry, it’ll be alright, you say

As your smile wraps around me

The stars show their faces as you sleep

Someone is praying under the same sky

That you can still smile when tomorrow comes

I’m watching over you from far away

We’re all living under the sky

A soft wind blows

And the city quietly begins to take color

Your smiling face shines brighter than anyone

Even the cloudy sky clears up

I’ve climbed over countless high walls

So nothing scares me, I’m not alone

We’re all living under the sky

Ayaka

i will wait for you

Hongkong and Mainland

2011-07-25T02:00:00.008+08:00

How i Love HongKong and how i wished that i can go back there again and again and again...

I like the flyover,the roads in Hongkong, neatly coordinate and road users are abiding law citizens!thumbs up!and the road is clean!

Billboards light up almost in every street especially in Thsim Tsa Tsui area,or the night markets!the night is forever busy!

We stayed in a hotel called Panda Hotel that almost every things in the hotel have the panda image on or design like one :]:]:] i love panda!

the central of Hongkong is my background across the river,from kowloon to Hongkong island took an hour of ferry ride.

in the midst of our sightseeing, there is this Christian group worshiping and giving a bag of devotional (in mandarin). Many join them hymning. i was amazed,there were different tourists who came together praising the Lord. Wherever we are,God is with us.

A day trip to ShenZhen, this is at the window of the world, where there is mini Eiffel at our background. The temperature is really hot that we only managed to take a few shots!woooots x

thanks to them, toni and friends, we got to try choutoufu!im loving it!love love love it!

Beijing road @Guangzhou, endless street of shopping stalls...full of crowd but we decided to go back there again if we had chance!hah!

and from this trip, i dread the most is one: i didnt have the time to go to DISNEYLAND!so close yet i cant make it!argh!next trip...next trip....hopefully soon...<3

second: i cant meet my violetboy who is just another 2 hour plane ride from GuangZhou :'[

till we meet again......

batam island short trip!

2011-07-25T01:33:00.004+08:00

i mentioned my trip before but the picture is here now!yay!

This cruise is identical to JUMBO seafood restaurant (dragon boat) in Hongkong or Singapore, this is the baby size..the restaurant is not open yet but we can get the chance to tour inside the cruise

Can you actually see the PLANE? i still remember clearly the feeling of lying together with my bestie looking at the beautiful sky,a little taste of heaven~i missed them already :']

bright colour always gives a nice background so we had a short session of "pre-wed" photoshoot :P

i forgot what the resort called,but it has nice view with private boats around!and water sports..

Oke,compare this picture and picture below...Dina took this picture for us and below,i took it!i just found out that i was really bad taking "on air" shots..bah!they grumble alot at me cos i tried 10 times :/ and still couldnt take one great shot..hihi..Dina is a Pro!^^

This is another resort,at Sekupang..many Buddhist come here to pray because there is a big statue of Kwam Im here.

bridal makeover

2011-07-25T00:38:00.005+08:00

This is some of my clients...some of my works ^^

i used to have an aversion on doing this job,this line,because i feel this job is really onerous!literally.....every person has their different flaws to cover and we need to find out their glowing sides to bring out their best.Especially when it is for studio shoot...each details on the facial portrayal and hair need to be overlook carefully.i had my moment of tension but thanks to God,i was given the confidence and strength to keep going despite the critics and pressure of doing it perfectly.

I also realised one thing when im doing this job,i observed it many times that whoever the lady is,whether she is naturally a beautiful person,has a mediocre look or a so-so person... they are eventually turn out to become the most beautiful woman,or a very beautiful lady after bride makeover. i believe is not only through the works of a make-up artist but because all creation of God is indeed amazingly created.furthermore,they are going to be a happy bride as they are those the lucky ones to be able to meet with their destined partner.

anyway,my aunt is really super duper pro make up artist, and i look up upon her...she can change anyone to be at their best,whether the groom or the bride.In the mean time as i work progressively,i also work on the improvements and i will work really hard for the perfection!

if those living in Jakarta,feel free to check out our bridal!

Ah~ah~ah~ now i took ages to post something in my blog even at the moment i have so much to say but i just couldnt sit down nicely and type insanely...

1.I always feel tired when i reached home, the only thing in my mind is always a nice shower and my bed.
2. the wi-fi modem is under repair,and it has been repairing until i dont know when it will be fixed so i need to go to living room for surfing the internet and i always get attention of what im doing with my lappie which i dont like that at the end,i felt slack doing it.
3.Now, im having long term break....before that,several weeks ago...i was having lingering madness to get the term over.it was overwhelming.. long queue of projects and theory papers to study!now it's finally over and i have already seen my term results,at least the effort paid off,well,good enough.
4.though i am having term break now,i cant be a bummer at home,or go wherever as i wish,as some of you know i work as a make up artist in my aunt's bridal and there are many couples having pre-wed shoots and the d-day of the wedding days almost on every week so im getting attached with the bridal almost everyday.
5.there are pending post coming up! ^^

community called love

2011-05-08T01:05:00.003+08:00

it was really raining raining raining so heavily out of sudden when i was about to go to this cell group at City Tower,and i had to argue with my family because they thought it was really dangerous for me to go anywhere at that time. Well,i made my choice and i choose to go because i thought i dont want to owe another excuses for a friend who was waiting for me to come.after two years living in Jakarta,i decided to step my feet back again into this community called FA,two years was such a long time but poof it feels like yesterday. Before i reached this FA, the rain didnt stop but the car stopped,yea this things happened so often in Jakarta,stucked in the gridlock traffic,and time is clicking so fast. im used to it already,and there is nothing to blame,you just had to figure out the way to be save from the situation so i got out from the car and walked under the rain surrounded by men and women dressed in executive uniforms trying to fight the rain along Sudirman district. it feels so good somehow!XD
So when Andri,the leader said do you really need to go through all this trouble to do something,even simple things like going to tonight FA?is it worth it?.....he said,well,it's not about that,it's about the commitment you make within yourself. ahah *jing a ling jing*, yea,i felt it..it's true about commitment,even the tiny little thing you promise you will make it happen, all those bricks that comes in your way, they will be broken in two because you keep telling yourself,deep in your heart it says that it must be done,it must be done. I said i cant turn back,i cant go home with empty purpose and im tired giving reasons cos im tired of others will think is just another excuses.. so with a skin that feel so thicked i reached at the fa with more than an hour late and everyone is new to me except for Andri and Steven.a very good first impression eh,but after i explained to them how i got there,they were totally understood,'heavy rain eh?traffic jam?'..see this is the thing about living here,you are easily understood for giving those reasons when you are late.
another thing that is "jing a ling jing",andri said about the robotic life in our lives,again i feel so close to it and this is why my two years i passed with less meaning,not so meaningful and recently i just realised it,feel so strong in my mind that something has gone wrong and i need to fix it..yea,that night conclude it all..in this robotic life we live,we sometimes need to change the mechanic of life by ourself,we cant depend on others to make it a happening life so why dont we start to give first rather than we wait for others to give it to us? Luke 6:38 Give, and it will be given to you. They will pour into your lap a good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over. For by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return
and being back at the fa again,it's not only about the new people i met but i feel so glad to be in the ring where i can feel what i used to feel back then in fa blessed,and yes im officialy so officially missed FA BLESSED!i miss each everyone of you.....

yet!

after easter...

2011-04-25T17:38:00.015+08:00

"Heal my heart and make it clean

Open up my eyes to the things unseen

Show me how to love like You have loved me

Break my heart for what breaks Yours

Everything I am for Your Kingdom's cause

As I walk from earth into eternity"

Hossana-Hillsong

This is my favourite song of all time but when this song was played as one of the worship song on the Easter service at the church last Saturday...each of the word,each meaning behind the words consumed me all over again..

i watched Passion of the Christ,i read the Luke verses,i pray,im indulge in the Easter celebration,Easter mood but.....what is it that i
should do after all these passed,back to the routines,
back to reality..another new days,
another new weeks and another new months...

that few lines from a song,explain it all......

when you miss someone

2011-04-18T19:55:00.005+08:00

this colorful windmill

with all my might,so i can let go

all the beautiful affliction

caused by missing you

la réalité

2011-04-18T14:32:00.003+08:00

"After a while you learn
the subtle difference between
holding a hand and chaining a soul
and you learn
that love doesn’t mean leaning
and company doesn’t always mean security.
And you begin to learn
that kisses aren’t contracts
and presents aren’t promises
and you begin to accept your defeats
with your head up and your eyes ahead
with the grace of woman,
not the grief of a child
and you learn
to build all your roads on today
because tomorrow’s ground is
too uncertain for plans
and futures have a way of falling down
in mid-flight.
After a while you learn
that even sunshine burns
if you get too much
so you plant your own garden
and decorate your own soul
instead of waiting for someone
to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really can endure
you really are strong
you really do have worth
and you learn
and you learn
with every goodbye, you learn..”

今后不再怕天明,我想只是害怕清醒
[No longer afraid of the future dawn,i would like to just afraid of waking]

what do you feel when somebody woke you up in the middle of the night,telling some little news that make all your fairy tale dream shattered apart and then you were forced to go back to sleep with a suffocated heart,hoping that you quickly find the door back to your wonderful dream,forgetting about how you feel a while ago.

these days,as emotional as i was,i tend to easily forget my-self [my hyphen SELF], the girl who loves so much fun and the girl who doesnt care being different, the girl who continually being drill to be stronger that no problem is bigger than her God so eventually she should know now,she can be herself in any kind of situation at any time.. I dont feel that way,im drifted away....easily satisfied,easily happy yet also easily broken and easily sad...everyday fill with bizarre anxiety that sometimes i hope the heart was freeze to the coldest temperature.I began to start liking reading some inspirational forwarded msgs or forwarded quotes and listen to songs and feel hey,it's so me..so me...to make me feel better...then i'm back to being unhappy..start wondering,wonder and wonder until i feel uneasy because of it.

so i realise....there is this time in life even your level of maturity,your age,your social status,your uniqueness or level of self-conscience wont be able to help you to pass the days with dont worry be happy attitudes... they dont..i still decided on one of the choices without all those above and most of the time i've chosen the wrong choice... what to do then?i try the gray shades,far from black and white choices. Try to have the ability to let go and embrace the virtues of not knowing,of not planning and not trying to fit too neatly into the box. because all the little setbacks are just temporarily as fast as it will go away like the speed of capsule locomotive...accept it and brave it!...not afraid of laughing out loud and not afraid of crying out loud..cos i have the greatest counsellor!

cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you 1 Peter 5:7

they will gone with the wind~

in my enduring young adulthood......... let's embrace on jolie laide of life.....

quand je regarde ma vie

2011-04-18T11:31:00.001+08:00

when i look at my life and its secret colors,i feel like bursting into tears. Like that sky, it's rain and sun both, noon and midnight. You know,i think of the lips i've kissed and of the wretched child i was and of the madness of life, the ambition that sometimes carries me away. i'm all those things at once. im sure there are times when you wouldnt even recognise me. Extreme in misery, excessive in happiness - i cant say it. ~ Albert Camus

2011-03-26T23:10:00.002+08:00

i just came back from a b-town (batam),a sunny island which i used to live..although b-town was not my hometown but it's a place where i met my two bestfriends,bestfriends for life...b-town is also a place where few important chapters in my life was set...days with my momma,days filled of fun and laughter with my playground bunchies,childhood love stories and staying in the same house with my this two little cousins who are now growing so fast that i feel like im doubling my age...while i was packing my old remnants,i found this picture which i took eons years ago...

chan chan,the older brother,who used to follow me around when he was a kid,especially when we were going to play basketball. a kiddo who always try to play bball like the adult and shooting the balls into the ring with his tiny hand and small feet, now, goes to training almost everyday,won many games,becoming a great playmaker in his team and amusingly it's my turn to fetch him home from his training on my few night stays at b-town..feeling so proud of him that he is going to be a great man but on the other hand,i feel dejected..this kid who used to be showered with many loves before,a young prince he was,had changed so much now due to his circumtances. the look behind his shy and smiling face,i can sense a different side of him that i want to do so much for him and his brother,to make them happy,happier than other kids in this world...at that moment i wished i have the power of Santa!

why sometimes our feeling so overwhelming but cant express much and do much...infuriate,so infuriating....
only Hope and our faith that needs to be stronger cos all ends according to His will...a beautiful will...

God is with you and me

notes: no phosop editing or any sort of editing, pure capture.

when i first looked at this picture i was amazed, really amazed by how God create this world. Despites all the calamities that surrounding the world now, i believe there are rays of Hope... so please dont give up...

pray for Japan and please stop wars!

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9

seeds of hope

2011-03-22T22:35:00.001+08:00

There seems to be a mountain of obstacles preventing people from being where their hearts want to be. It is so painful to watch and experience. The astonishing thing is that the battle for survival has become so "normal" that few people really believe that it can be different......
Oh how important is discipline,community,prayer,silence,caring presence,simple listening,adoration and deep lasting faithful friendship. We all want it so much, and still the powers suggesting that all of that is fantasy are enormous. But we have to replace the battle for power with the battle to create space for the spirit....

a quote from Henri Nouwen's book "Seeds of Hope"

when violet is a boy

2011-02-09T01:13:00.018+08:00

The only things in life you regret, Are the risks that you didnt take - anonymous

today i feel that i have a close bonding with the sky, or maybe i'm looking for the comfort excuses so nobody knows....because when the raindrops, it drops together with my droplets, my sad droplets.

and at the same time today i finally used the remedy of "sunshine after the rain", when the bus keep moving forward, the somber skies also moving away telling me that everything is going to be alright...

this lane, oh my violet boy, is going to be a wild ride...though you'll be far far away for a long long time,i wont stop praying for you and each click of time, you are slowly become part of me. Did i feel like this before? those questions are no more important. all i know that now i'm living with anticipation, looking forward to our precious serenidipity. oh my violet boy, no more turning back, so please keep the fuel full all the time!this ride is going to be rockier than ever!the dope that i ever really need is your pulse beating only for me to complete this journey!it's all i can ask..

you can shine!

22nd level

2010-12-10T17:30:00.000+08:00

the wind shook some blossoms from the trees
the heavy lilac-blooms with their clustering stars
moved to and fro in the languid air
a grasshopper began to chirrup by the wall
here she rest on the 22nd level,
fate had in store for her
exquisite joy and exquisite sorrows
swirl of stairs lay below
willing to catch her anytime
but it's too late for her to give up
to reach the top of the roof
so for now,let her indulge in her sleep
on the bed of love,lose her way
in the dream world,a sweet dream world

One great Woman!

Bunda Titiek Puspa, she was diagnosed with cancer not long ago and on the stage she was a true performer with powerful voice,at her age,she is admirable!

Nadine,puteri Indonesia 2010

Titi Kamal, she is very sweet!

oh,i so want what's on Laura!

Eca, her twin is called Eci, they are like the Olsens sister of Indonesia

the stage

Puteri Indonesia

Ilmira Usmanova,a model from Uzbekistan and married with Indonesian's actor, Teuku Zacky

oriental looks!

i was with the make up team for the Anne Avantie's 20th year show,it was quite an experience,meeting many new people and witness tiny part behind the scene of Indonesia celebrities but this time it's not about me,it's going to be all about her,bunda Anne and "Damai Negeriku" show.

I dont really know her very well before, all i know that she is a great designer who produces beautiful Kebaya gowns and dress.At that night,i was astonished by the theatrical fashion show she held,and at the same time i was glad that bunda Anne has beautiful personalities,she is humble and kind despite being a lime light on the stage and everywhere she goes, she is a true star and a wonderful inspirational woman.i think she is one of the "pahlawan"(warrior) Indonesia.The way she built her passion from scratch to where she is now was inspiring!The show showed us a big part about her and her contributions that made you feel "words cant describe,goosebumps all the way!" type of emotions.She brought Indonesia to another level and another thing i like from her is that she always praise God!

Moon oh moon

2010-09-21T21:50:00.003+08:00

Happy lantern festival! Or happy Mid-autumn festival! but i still prefer the greeting "Happy Mooncake festival" because the only vibe i received is the mooncake...the moon is not big and round tonight like the predicted moon of every mid-autumn...cos it was hazed by the heavy rain and no kids playing lantern,again because of the heavy rain outside the house.

You can only sip a cup of warm tea on your comfy couch and enjoy the traditional mooncake, yet i dont really fancy the traditional brown mooncake..i prefer the snowskin type and ofcourse Haagen Daz's!aigoo...how i missed the Haagen Daz's mooncake!! i couldnt find it here or i didnt try harder...whatever it is this September has many happy occasions and celebrations!it's fun playing in the rain,but dont stay too long and get sick!

and the cycle is back....

2010-09-19T23:40:00.003+08:00

And yea....
A long Holiday is no more,do i even have it long out of the 3 months break?at this age,when you have a school break,you work!no chance to be a lazy bum when i always think of my bed,blanket and bolster......

Especially tomorrow,even it still 10 hours away,i already dread about it.....no more i love monday because half of my day is taken by grammar class!ouch...what a great start eh?! and.... and.....my cliche has been transferred to another class..yea,in college you no more can find "besties" but at least they are the people i am comfortable hanging with and i'm gonna miss them more than not meeting them for the term break!...

And for my tomorrow and future days,this (in all your ways acknowledge Him,and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:6) going to accompany me always!

And there is so many September Babies!!!Happy birthday to you all!!

will bless you . . .

September purple

2010-09-19T23:13:00.004+08:00

Why September purple when most of the days filled with rain?
because every color i choose now is purple....
my new phone,my new towel,my new shirt,my new watch,my new pencil box,my new jeans and eye shadow for my make up box (for my clients).
Basically i'm not a person who biased with colour because i love all colour!but ultimately i love white,pink,black,red,lime green and now purple...

In this town,purple always define widowed,as they say widowed love purple but hey...not only "dont judge the book by it's cover" but also dont judge the book by it's colour!

I choose the right purple though : it's called a royal purple, In medieval Europe, blue dyes were rare and expensive, so only the most wealthy or the aristocracy could afford to wear them. (The working class wore mainly green and brown) Because of this (and also because Tyrian purple had gone out of use in western Europe after the collapse of the Western Roman Empire in AD 476), Europeans' idea of purple shifted towards this more bluish purple known as royal purple because of its similarity to the royal blue worn by the aristocracy. This was the shade of purple worn by kings in medieval Europe
And from what i Google,Purple in wikipedia,that in the French academic system, the five traditional fields of study (Arts, Science, Medicine, Law and Divinity) are each symbolized by a distinctive color, which appears in the academic dress of the people who graduated in this field. Purple (usually a hue close to Royal Purple) is the distinctive color for Divinity.

"womanist is to feminist as purple is to lavender." Alice Walker the author of The Color Purple

So much in purple eh?i'm lovin it!!!!!

haru haru ~~~

2010-09-12T15:08:00.001+08:00

Leave
Yeah, Finally I realize that I am nothing without you
I was so wrong, forgive me
My broken heart like a wave
My shaken heart like a wind
My heart vanished like smoke
It can't be removed like a tattoo
I sigh deeply as if a ground is going to cave in
Only dusts are piled up in my mind
Yeah, I thought I wouldn't be able to live even one day without you
But somehow I managed to live on (longer) than I thought
You don't answer anything as I cry out "I miss you"
I hope for a vain expectation but now it's useless
What is it about that person next to you, did he make you cry?
Dear can you even see me, did you forget completely?
I am worried, I feel anxiety because I can't get close nor try to talk to you
I spend long nights by myself, erasing my thoughts a thousand times
Don't look back and leave
Don't find me again and live (on)
Because I have no regrets from loving you, take only the good memories
I can bear it in some way
I can stand in some way
You should be happy if you are like this
I become dull day by day
Oh girl I cry, cry
You're my all, say goodbye

If we pass by each other on the street
Act like you didn't see me and go the way you were walking to
If you keep thinking about our past memories
I might go look for you secretly
Always be happy with him, (so) I won't ever get a different mind
Even smallest regret won't be left out ever
Please live well as if I should feel jealous
You should always be like that bright sky, like that white cloud
Yes, you should always smile like that as if nothing happened

I hope your heart feels relieved
Please forget about me and live (on)
Those tears will dry completely
As time passes by
It would've hurt less if we didn't meet at all
Hope you will bury our promise of being together forever baby
I pray for you
Oh girl I cry, cry
You're my all, say goodbye, bye
Oh my love don't lie, lie
You're my heart, say goodbye

Haru-haru,big bang! FOR YOU!

she is....

RI you rock!

2010-08-17T22:15:00.006+08:00

wake up in pyjamas and stay awake in pyjamas until this afternoon,it's not that i was out nationalisme mood but i just feel happy for being free to do whatever i want to do today!like 65 years ago RI was being free from the long years of colonisation.

i've been living here as a grown up me for almost 2 years now and remember those days in a foreign country, i always feel amused. There is once when i heard from my teacher that i dont have to put my hand on my left chest to do morning assembly pledge, i was glad so glad that i'm proud to be out of place among the rest of them. and every 17 Aug, i will skip school with own hand signed letters or buy a medical letter with other Indonesian students in my school,my friends from China,Malaysia or Thailand will also joined us. We will go ice skate,movie,karaoke and neoprints.Sounds naughty?yea,i'm a rebel but no regret because it's the school fun you wouldnt want to miss in life.Besides i have a clean record no matter how naughty i was, lucky is the word.

further back, i got to spend my chilhood in Medan where i always asked to participate in the competitions such as the rope pulling race, hopping in sack and eating cracker was my favourite. I remembered that i won the second place for cracker eating and bring home the prize to my mum, so happy but was soon emotionally demolished by mum because of her saying " You joined in the cracker eating competition? when you get cough i will scold you even worse!" ...*sob*...that's my mum..

yea,yea...today every Indonesian have to recall back then how Soekarno fought the enemy and won Indonesia with glory until we can be today Indonesian and future Indonesian. The recent bad bad bad impact on Indonesia has no match at all, we are growing stronger!

Live as free men, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil, live as servants of God

1 Peter 2:16

God bless Indonesia!

Title: タンブリング
Title (English): Tumbling
Tagline: 新体操が、オレ達をオトコにした / Shintaiso ga, oretachi o otoko ni shita
Format: Renzoku
Genre: Sports drama
Episodes: 11
Theme Song: Manazashi by Honey L Days

Synopsis

Azuma Wataru, a third-year student at Karasumori High School, is a devil who strikes fear in the hearts of people. One day, Azuma is told by his form teacher that he has to participate in a club activity in order to make up for the lack of second-year students. The short-tempered Azuma cannot last long in whatever he does. At that moment, he learns that Satonaka Mari, the beautiful transfer student in his class, has joined the female rhythmic sports gymnastics club. He joins the male rhythmic sports gymnastics club, a club activity with very few people under the captain, Takenaka Yuta. They are ridiculed by the coach of the female rhythmic sports gymnastics club, and others, and are also hardly allowed to use the gym. However, when a sixth boy joins the club, Yuta decides to take part in a team competition with his long-sought six members …

well,well,well i've been crazily in love with this drama,no amount of words can help me describe how fondly i felt for this drama,it's super extremely awesome drama!

it's not a typical drama between boy and girl love story but this drama is about a bond of friendship between the guys,every episode i watched was moved to tear.

droplets of friendship,love,passion and hope. droplets of crystal,pure and rare.i dont feel nauseated when i see them crying,i was moved.

and each of the guy in the drama is so interesting especially when they do the TUMBLING together,WAA,awesomeness!

From the first second, this drama draws us into the world of Tumbling and the youth gangster in Japan. All of the main characters are important and all of them are strong in their own ways. my special is of course the hard core wataru, the good guy yuta and handsome ryosuke.

fresh and delicious i would say. you want more and more that it becomes your favourite!

P.S: the eyebrow of Japanese guy is clean cut and nicely shape, maybe even better than the ladies. they are so cool!

july blackness is over

2010-08-03T00:34:00.006+08:00

Isshasiburi! yup, i had a last month of "running away to the endless track of entertainment" to fill colour for my black,black and black days. July was not really a friendly month.
After my term,we had 3 months full of holiday, and so i spend most of time in salon, catching up my Hair Do skills..that was why i mentioned earlier,black days..Everyday i have to face black hair and arrange it into something flourish!haha...speaking of the truth,i'm trying hard to be passionate about doing hair do and i still feel empty somehow.. i follow the formula and i did it good but the energy is still lacking....how perfect is still imperfect...

there and then, i found couple of really interesting books, dramas and songs to make my days and here is the list....they are really really good...

1. i went to this bookstore at puri and there is a big sign of 50% discount at the import books,i quickly went to the section and was so happy that i found 2 interesting books. The last time we met by Anita Shreve and Beyond the blond by

Kathleen Flynn-Hui. beyond the blond coincidencely is about salon life and how i envy the salon life in the book!so envy! but my salon and salon in the book have some similar truth which i agree that i nod when i read the book.

2.Okeee,never get bored swimming in the korean wave, i watched a really double double hilarious but also a touchy drama called One mom and three dad, a 2008 drama!DOUBLE Awesome!it was something to anticipate everyday until the last episode of the drama! i also watched Sophie's revenge which i met a different ZHang ZI Yi. and nobuta wa produce..yamapi kawaiinee~~~.. all old drama,but i think it's the right time to watch them and they are good. lack of english movies,which i spare it for this month!

3. i'm learning to sing french song, correctly and wonderfully...my first song is Lamer by Charles trenet, a very short lyric but twisting your toungue is envitable. maybe slowly i can speak french,haha. and in love with shayne ward for his songs!my booster in salon!

Thy gone July, and August,yea,my two days of early August i already spend it well with HaoPengYu! sunday with Lolla, we went to church together and i felt that as though i met her just last Sunday (now with her self-cut short hair) as we always did in Singapore for every Sunday school and Sunday morning service at Hyatt. the feeling never fade,now i know. And monday,i met rahma and dian in the afternoon,singing to fullest!i dont have a beautiful voice but i have a rocker voice!i can shout crazy!haha...Rey is good singer!like her voice! at monday night, i met jenita and the others for dinner at kembang goela. well,spending with them was a great dessert for today!

haha,i was wondering what is going to happen with the rest of the weeks in August,looking on the bright side,a good start is always promising!August is going to be a great month!

JA!Oyasumi!

True love is never blind, but rather brings an added light, an inner vision quick to find the beauties hid from common sight - phoebe Cary

There is no absolute truth

2010-06-28T19:23:00.009+08:00

In the big auditorium,

Professor: Student, there is actually no absolute truth in this world

everybody was whoa-ing and there is one intelligent student standing voice out his view,

Student: Sir, that means you are not the absolute truth we relied on all this time?

I was laughing quite a bit loud in the middle of congregation when the preacher from Singapore shared this short story, wao, i was thinking at that moment many must be cheering that literally smart student...

Uhm, the professor can be right and wrong.. Do you believe that when you are eating rib-eye steak, the steak is made of purely the cow meat? you may say "well,ofcourse, it taste beef and expensive!" or when he/she said I love you, they really mean it? "yes,i can see it from his eyes"

human, initially is born with the principle of trust, human can choose to believe and dont believe it, easily to believe and hard to believe, whatever it is we are based with trust.. trust, a gift from God makes everything simple. When at the end our trust being abused, we also trust ourselves that we dont fall into it anymore. trust and trust...

trust the truth!
one and only truth, bible, the word of God. God bless you.

Hot Summer days!

2010-06-02T23:43:00.005+08:00

FROM Sweet SANCHAI TO ROCKER HSU!she is a great actress!
if we can match couple with their look,both of them really look good together!C:

It has became my habit now that i will go to dvd hunting once a month,i will bought different type of Dvds.Drama or movie. 2 of Japan drama,2 of Korean drama,2 of Chinese drama,2 of western drama and the rest will be mix of movies from different region or genre (mostly about romance).
The Dvds will supply me a one month of entertainment as I am more to homey type of person and i heart watching,so i need dvds alot.

Recently,2 movie that caught my attention at the stand was Love else where and Hot Summer days. one i chose because i'm curious about the movie,it has no clear synopsis but has a friendly title plus nice chinese calligraphy. And as for Hot Summer days,i chose it because my fave stars are the cast of the movie such as Barbie hsu,Vivian Shu,Rene liu,Nicholas Tse,Daniel Wu and Angela Baby.And the title really suit the situation in Jakarta right now!

Both of the movie define urban fairy tale for young people who believe in true love but are too hip to admit it!They define love in so many ways through different characters,in a world that could only exist in the movies, still all these plots naturally connect with love.they both are pieces of romantic fluff that eschews reality for a whole lot of charm.and Both of the story also have enough light comic charm to carry it through its own tired set of melodrama clichés.

I'm proud to be Chinese!

Watch these and feel that you are not the only one suffering with tons of sweat in the hot summer days!Summer will be a really fun season!

I was stucked in the cold studio for 3 days to do this fashion catalogue photoshoot for a client...i'm not the photographer..it was my brother,robby...i was so called the "fashion stylist"...
i have to mix and match 180 differrent design and colour..and luckily,at least my sense is not lost..

the 3 models that worked with us were still schooling..there's one called Dominique ivonne who came directly from her school,still wearing her school uniform and immediately she able to transform herself into a pro model.Agatha,she gave letter to the school for her absence.And the oldest model,Juliana,she is doing her college thesis,graduating soon.

Each of them have different character when they were infront of the photographer and the camera.Every side of them looks perfect behind the lenses,every angle,every pose they make,they looked gorgeous all the time.....however,this is not like cotton candy you buy on the street,you put the stick in the machine turn it around and you'll get a big,fluffy pink cute candy.
From what i knew from them,they attend modeling school,has taken many pictures to know their best angle and learn many tricks to pose nicely and self-narcissist.being a model is not easy,great body and pretty face is not the only condition.Good mental and physic is also important.

it's fun hanging around with them..they are enviable but only for a few second :P because they were so friendly.Glamour can be friendly!

in the midst of stacking notes,i turn my back and run away!

these people has entertained me..and i'm fully fueled up!...2 more killing paper!

Arigato RIHITO!
Arigato SUNAKO!
Arigato MEI!
Arigato KYOHEI!

i've also received some ideas from them for my end of term project,for the book that i have to write...So many ideas of conflict,suspense,plot,character and theme...but i still cant figure out the beginning of the whole story because i clearly know once the initial paragraph is there,the rest will flow rhythmically..so i need to have a good start..my sheet of papers still thick and blank..i even bought a new pen to add the image of a good writer.yet...yet....writing a book is not easy,whether it has thousand pages or merely 100 pages. No wonder good book is expensive!

I prefer to be the reader,not the author...

anyway....

what a tempting sweet escape!

o'ye spring!

this is my second piece of Jigging sawing! i love this! the setting that i really yearn to be at...

It Might as Well Be Spring

(1945) richard rodgers, oscar hammerstein ii

The things I used to like, I don’t like any more,
I want a lot of other things I’ve never had before,
It’s just like my mamma says, I sit around and mourn
Pretending that I am so wonderful and knowing I’m adored

I’m as restless as a willow in a windstorm,
I’m as jumpy as a puppet on a string,
I’d say that I had spring fever,
But I know it isn’t spring.

I’m as starry eyed and gravely discontented,
Like a nightingale without a song to sing.
Oh, why should I have spring fever,
When it isn’t even spring?

I keep wishing I were somewhere else,
Walking down a strange new street,
Hearing words I have never never heard,
From a man I’ve yet to meet.

I’m as busy as a spider spinning daydreams,
I’m as giddy as a baby on a swing,
I haven’t seen a crocus or a rosebud,
Or a robin or a bluebird on the wing,
But I feel so gay in a melancholy way,
That it might as well be spring,
It might as well be, might as well be,
It might as well be spring.

MId test crisis people!

waiting for the sun

2010-04-18T21:39:00.002+08:00

Faith was a true mystery,I would wake up in the morning and could see everything lined up before me,i would know that if i took a certain action,i could count on a predicted outcome.Any fears and doubts would be assuaged by my knowledge of God's love..

on the contrary.......

On the bad days,i felt as if i were standing in the thick fog,i couldnt see where i'd come and i definitely couldnt see where i was going..whatever lay around the bend might hurt me or the people i loved most.The demons could be lying in wait-they almost certainly were..

Today...finally tonight...and tonight finally tomorrow...the sun is waiting...

real street is intimidating!

2010-04-03T23:58:00.005+08:00

tonight is my first ride of a manual motorbike to the crowded street..with only little knowledge of riding motorbike,i dare myself to ride the bike with Poppy to buy dinner..Quite risky I admit but sooner or later i have to ride on the real street one day,it's so crazy especially here in Jakarta.When riding around the housing estates is fun and free but when you face the big street,it feel so OUCH..i feel like a baby learning to walk and suddenly there is a big adult walking infront of me. I feel so timid and nervous is not a question!

when we reached home,it feels like a good finish line and a good relief..

Poppy says:it's like a free roller coaster ride that she prefers to pay the real one..hahaaaaa....

HAPPY EASTER PEOPLE!

10 years we lost contact!and i miss her!she's still the same old santi!

i have michael,mei mei,mei ping,and ping ken the little dude who melts your heart

A lady called Beckham

Santi and Pin,a happy couple!

my Medan family preparing stuffs,the graves at Medan really grand!i think the higher their status,the grand their grave,even my grandpa have eel pond..eek..

i just came back from a short visit to Medan after 3 to 4 years of absence from there..and this is my first short visit...normally,i will stay for one to two weeks even a month..this time only 4 full days.so i eat durian till i drop..haha...back to jakarta,i was totally drop to my bed..bad cough,lost of voice,and sneeze nonstop.this visit,they call it as CHENG BENG (yearly visit to grave yard),since i have few days off class so i delightedly accept the tixies..

I dont think mainly because of durian,i think because of the extremely hot weather when visiting the graves. it's like a tour,you know,grave after grave..heat after heat..
anyway my family who have a strong belief in their Buddhist religion finally understand me for being a Christian. I kneel down and gives my respect with a flower bouquet,honestly this is my first time. yea..slowly..they will join Jesus army.Amen.

So back to Medan,I reunited with my childhood bestfriend who is now married happily to a humurous man and Santi is a very good host,both of her husband and she bring me to the new theme park at brastagi called hillpark[enemy of MiKi holiday]...As i only have one day to spend at brastagi and Miki opens at 3 pm,i couldnt try the new crazy ride at Miki.The ride almost the same as the Tornado ride in Dufan.anyway Merci San,Pin.
Santi's family is very close to my family,and to hear that her family is all great and well,i am so happy.

At Medan,i also have close contacts with the young children,i feel like i was at the kindergarten,they brought me to their own little world and i almost drunk in it,i'm trying to learn their baby language..they are all very adorable to the fullness.

another truth i gained alot and nelayan's durian pancake is really good!
oh,another horse ride!this time is more challenging and rough!phew!

Goodbye Alice in the wonderland

2010-03-23T01:32:00.001+08:00

It's four in the afternoon
I'm on a flight leaving L.A.
Trying to think about my life
My youth scattered along the highway

Hotel rooms and headlights
I've made a living with a song
Guitar as my companion
Wanting desperately to belong

Fame is filled with spoiled children
We grow fat on fantasy
I guess that's why I'm leaving
I crave reality

So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
I did not find paradise
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting
What's been missing in my life

I'm embarassed to say the rest is a rock and roll cliche
I hit the bottom when I reached the top
But I never knew it was you who was breaking my heart
I thought you had to love me
But you did not

Yes a heart can hallucinate
If it's completely starved for love
It can even turn monsters into
Angels from above

You forged my love just like a weapon
And you turned it against me like a knife
You broke my last heartstring
You opened up my eyes

So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
That was not love in your eyes
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind searching
what was missing in my life

Growing up is not an absence of dreaming
It's being able to understand the difference between the ones you can hold
And the ones that you've been sold
And Dreaming is a good thing cause it brings new things to life
But pretending is an ending that perpetuates a lie
Forgetting what you are
Seeing for what you've been told

Ohh truth is stranger than fiction
This is my chance to get it right
And life is much better without all of those pretty lies

Ohh So Goodbye Alice in Wonderland
And you can keep your yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
These are not tears in my eyes
They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding
They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding
I found what's missing in my life

1000 pieces is an easy task when you do with somebody,it can be really fun and you forget the time.

back then,when i was younger,my mum used to get me jigsaw puzzles...mostly disney characters...and when there is one missing puzzle,you wouldnt want to know how bad i've cried.Since then, i will not do my puzzle or carrying it around to another place from where i initially do the puzzle.i will stuck at the same place until the final piece.

Now as i'm getting older,jigsaw puzzle is still part of my favourite collections...it has alot of meaning..

When connect puzzle with my life and God...it's quite similar...I know at the end of the days,my home will be where God is,there are roads to go through to reach the sacred home..the road of misery,hardship,courage,bliss,happiness and temptation.Giving up is as easy as drinking water but because the love of God,giving up is trash and foolish.Puzzle is also the same thing,sometimes when you get a piece to put together with the other pieces,it fits nicely but at the other time it fits no where that you need to change to a different piece.the unknown piece will be revealed at the end of the day,and you will feel great about it.

I am both worried of my life and when doing puzzle,afraid that the nightmares of losing a piece of the puzzle will come back again.slowly,worries fade.....
the full picture is there,the happy ending is written,you just have to be more patient.

i'm still learning to be patient...without it...nothing will be accomplished.

reverie

2010-03-12T22:21:00.009+08:00

if i'm an author,i will fulfill my wishes on hundred of papers. I will pour all the beautiful story in my mind, i will pour all my doubt...i will pour everything out of my mind that my brain will be clear all the time.

If i'm a pilot,i will take all my problems way up high to the sky and let all the problems fly with the moving clouds because i know my problems will be gone forever,evaporate with the white clouds.

if i'm a baseball player,i will use my needs as my strength to run for the homerun, the more that i need, the faster i can run.

if i'm a zookeeper, i will have the fulltime worrying about hundredth of animals,breed them,tame them and thus i learn to be patient from it to deal with creature that are more dangerous than the animals,us,the human.

........what if there's no if? i will just be a dreamer to be all that..

you are loved,devimaria

vanness wu and God

2010-03-11T23:58:00.007+08:00

this is an extract from : Men’s Uno Taiwan issue No.127

Taking a look back at the past, he [vanness] doesn’t deny about losing himself because he “became famous too quickly”. When too many people offered their love, they made him lose his power to see what was real. He had become anxious and upset over gossips and false reports in the past. “When too many people congratulate you, and everyone compliments you unconditionally, it’s very easy to lose yourself in the midst of fake images and false reputations. There was a time when I asked myself if I am Mei Zuo or Van Ness Wu? I forgot what I really wanted, what my heart really cared about, what ideals I had since I was a child? I even went back to the US to settle myself down, in hopes to find the feeling I had in the beginning. All the uncertainty and agitation I had slowly disappeared after I found God!”

Rebirth after Baptism

Van Ness stated, “I struggle a lot at first to not play around with women. In the beginning, the pastor told me to start slowly, and now I have promised God that I will observe abstinence before marriage. After the promise and his alteration, in separate years, Van Ness achieved his goal of making music, holding concert, etc. More than once, during interviews, he has testified, “Give your faith to God and everything around you will succeed.” Van Ness also openly said that he was a “beast” before, but now, even though there are still women who take the initiative around him, he “sees them with different eyes.”

“Many people thought I look at things differently after my belief in God. I don’t deny that my belief has changed my life, because I truly feel that God gives me a lot of power. I really want to share the happiness that I have received. I now look at things more and more peacefully, or it can be said as a departure from the hot-blooded youth. I now know better to step back and think, and look at things from a different point of view. When I hesitate, I would quietly pray and hope God would give me power. He always points me to the right road and takes me to a better place. I’m truly grateful to him!”

In the interview, he shared a phrase from the bible: “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, all your plans will succeed.” He said, God gives him a lot of positive energy. He also hopes everyone can give themselves a chance to get to know God better. “He doesn’t care how much you have done, he already loves you, he already gives you love unconditionally. Just believe and proceed in the direction from God, you will be able to get where you want to be.”

Back when he was will unsure about taking on Autumn’s Concerto, he slightly panicked as many situations arose. However, he got a feeling that God wanted him to move forward bravely, and now it proved his direction was correct. “During filming, I would always have discussions with the director. I hoped to refine the most appropriate acting style, and then completely immerse myself into the drama. I believe God will take care of me, and let me do my very best.”

i find this is really really rare coming from a Taiwan ABC celebrity. i feel good about it.i believe he can help alot of people out there,because of his wonderful testimony,his love for God. I was surprised at first but come to think about it,hey! God is so amazing that even the least expected thing,it will become a really great thing. and He can use any tools He likes to save this world.

i am being recharge again to do what i really supposed to do and i cant wait any longer..

WATCH AUTUMN CONCERTO!ZHEN AWESOME!REALLY HAO GAN!

historie de ma vie

2010-03-05T21:25:00.011+08:00

I just changed my blog title from devi and her angel to historie de ma vie ( my life history) which i quote from the Cassanova book title. not because after i know the english translation but because my name is connected well with it. and for another reason "devi and her angel" doesn't really fit well with my story-telling,as i dont mention much of "my angel"... my literature teacher said that to write a good story,we need a good title and here i am making amend.so any kind of story will fit well here.

Speaking of literature,this semester is my introduction class to literature and i am anticipating alot from this class but sadly, the books here cost ba-bomb as mostly are imported books!and hard to find!i miss the singapore national library where it used to be my favorite place,one of the good thing about Singapore.and yes!....romeo and juliet please come back to life!

Now I but chide, but I should use thee worse,
For thou, I fear, hast given me cause to curse.
If thou hast slain Lysander in his sleep,
Being o'er shoes in blood, plunge in the deep,
And kill me too.
The sun was not so true unto the day
As he to me. Would he have stolen away
From sleeping Hermia? I'll believe as soon
This whole earth may be bor'd, and that the moon
May through the centre creep and so displease
Her brother's noontide with th' Antipodes.
It cannot be but thou hast murd'red him;
So should a murderer look- so dead, so grim.[A Midsummer Night's Dream]

last semester,award,and salon

2010-02-13T00:40:00.009+08:00

Okee! Two days before the Great Sunday (Church,Chinese New Year and Valentine) a very blessing busy Sunday, i have a great news that i've been wanting to share..

I actually won the first prize for the movie critic competition which i thought it's just another assignment from my funny writing teacher...there was a meet and greet ceremony with all the english department cum the award presentation but i was not there.

thus,i start to imagine the way famous people feel really surprised when their name were announced by the presenter,going on the stage and say " ooh,i never thought that i will have this beautiful chance,i didnt even prepare a speech" then they start to give a hard thanks..
at first i thought,the award ceremony also need a script,where the winners already know before hand that they are the winners and they pretend to be surprised..but know i have a different perception for them,i have the fake feeling like them..maybe you know you are one of the nominees but you dont know that you are the winner.surprise,no doubt.

And...yea...big relief that the end term papers are over..i have to cope with studying and in charge at salon,at the end i've no mood to study because these few weeks salon is pack with " Chinese New Year" customers that even salon have this Overtime Label..New hair cut and new hair color is already became the basic tradition for CNY...you at least have a hair cut or a fringe cut,if you have plenty time,you perm your hair,color you hair or straighten your hair. And so,i was stucked in salon the whole day that i didnt know what happened out there in the world.haha..exaggerating.. the news i got were all from the customers..haha..the heat of CNY is in salon..

However,it's really fun...i want that one day when i open my own business,it will be as pack as my aunt's,hopefully even better....really worth it..no matter how crowded,how tired..it means that you have a successful business....

Every celebration has their own meaning but they conclude all in one called "LOVE"..this time love defines as "ANGPAO" yeaa!!!...and happy Valentine!
i know what will happen so i already join one of the health club to lose all these happy fat in me after these celebrations..hehe..

GONG XI FA CAI!

You're beautiful

2010-01-14T23:35:00.010+08:00

i'm back from swimming in the korean waves...

it was all started from my this korean-mania friend that recommended me a real good korean 16 epsiodes series called you're beautiful....This drama isnt going to happen easily in real life..a famous band life,a promising nun becoming a promising star and of course their not ordinary love story..we only have a fat chance to be in that kind of cycle!

Normally after watching some series,it will end happily thus i,myself also move on and watch another interesting series...but i think i have drink too much from this series that i almost over-indulge in it. I want to re-watch the whole series again,i was engrossed in their other videos in you tube,i search for them in google,read them with great enthusiasm,i have all their song in my playlist,keep listening to their songs for days,have them memorised in my head,try to sing them although my Hanyu even not up to beginner level,download their pictures and even Ojiro in Love shuffle was defeated badly by Jang geun suk,he charms me.

When they see me,they will ask me " do you have someone in mind?" I understand why..

Things like this are easily forgotten no matter how great and wonderful they are,you shall write,capture or own it in your collection.Time keep still in the memorandum..

i really like this drama.Jungmal choo ah eh!

you are really beautiful..

my cow like horse

2010-01-10T10:49:00.009+08:00

Although you are not Black stallion or prince white charming,i still love you because you are so obedient...yup...that is the horse i rode..a promising horse-cow like..

This is my first time to control my own horse...i've been wanting to learn how to ride a horse,feel the mutual relationship with the horse,understand horse language and feel intimate with the horse..and deeply I always admire those horse-rider in the screen or on the field..

i've yet so much to learn..

This horse is a female horse,they say it's better to own a female horse than a male horse because the male is always urgent to get married thus it's hard to control them..

at first,when i was on top of the horse my heart was throbbing really fast,i'm scared that in any second i will be toss to somewhere laying helplessly..I took a period of time to keep the balance.

i've learned few horse body language...like hitting the stomach with both of your leg ( not so hard please) it will run fast and to brake,we need to pull the control string slowly..
*chaat,hyitt and whuss*

And when the horse run,i love the feeling...the adrenaline is so fresh and i feel so cool!Keren!!Kakoi!
i cant forget the feeling and i want more..more....

Paton and their angel

2009-12-23T22:46:00.005+08:00

The family Paton is a missionary family that were send to a very deserted island by one of the evangelism institution. People who live in the island still primitive and they were cannibals. whenever outsiders stepped their feet on the island,they will be the cannibals delicious meal.

The Patons sleep at the seaside every night for their first days of serving.The weirdest part was that the cannibals only observe them from the distance behind the bushes,afraid to go near the Patons.

Few years later the tribe has been won,then tribe asked the Patons " Paton,when your family and you were sleeping at the seaside back then,whose army that we've seen surrounding your family?"

The Patons deeply know that the army was send by God,they are the Angels that were send to watch and protect them.

I had an unusual morning because of this story.

Maybe i dont have an army of angels but i know God at least sends me an angel to be with me all the time,comfort me,protect me,bless me,love me,remind me and warn me.

Others too...

"The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him,and he delivers them." Psalm 34:7

So far yet they are here

2009-12-20T23:39:00.008+08:00

Today i have the short re-uni at city tower with old church peeps..
Unexpected to see some of them here....

and that made me wonder alot on my way back home after a good bowl of bibimbap...
i've been wondering whether the church that brought us all together here today or Christmas celebration..My daily Sunday I go to a different church,my life is not connected to anyone of them,hardly talk to each other,even lunch together and the like but today i'm really happy to meet them,the closeness is there,i feel me at Orchard Tower level 7.

As we keep going...the days keep going.....

suddenly..we halt...we look at our surrounding,christmas trees already decorated the empty corners,colourful lights twinkling,carol adding to the hum of city noise..

and we will all have this talk..what we have achieve this year?

we have eleven more days to get the 2009 Hura-Hura..

5 more days to Saviour birthday celebration........

Cloud and wind

2009-12-14T23:46:00.002+08:00

I have a little place in my heart for the chinese kungfu movie..not really fun if i watched it alone..
so my beloved uncle date his family including me to watch this storm warrior movie,at first i thought it was another flick like red cliff..i totally clueless about this movie..the only thing i know that Aaron Kwok & Ekin Cheng was in it.

when the first scene pop,already there was a serious situation. Then i know It's not the same as the typical chinese movie with arrow and horse..it was about the cloud and wind,they are the storm warrior...and suddenly i retrace back,long time ago,i watched this series before in my old tivi.

at the end of this movie,i have this redundant dilemma though..

to prefer:
A.Yun died so do Feng.Leave the lady dream(her name) alone.
B.Feng and the lady dream died.Leave the Yun alone because Yun soulmate has been killed.
C.Feng died and Yun with lady Dream starts new life.
D.All die.

Sadly,Yun died.And Feng got to be with his soulmate,Lady Dream..maybe life happily ever after.

I realised Chinese Movie always identic to "lover die together romance" but come to think about it..Romeo and Juliet also had the same condition. It's been universal ending.

Yes...truly this world,we have this so called "our halves" that destined to be forever...like magnet,we will find our way to each other.

MUKTAB (the term in arabic "it is written" by the Hand of God and is the final word/destiny on the matter at hand)

i can impress the lady too

2009-12-11T23:07:00.005+08:00

Introducing my bee girls: Rahma,Dian,Me,Eugene And Sutanti....meeting them,college days turn out to be more colourful!
They are quite smart to choose these movies :]

Do you ever imagine to be a movie critic?
You get to watch the latest movies,eating popcorn,write critic and you will be highly rewarded?
oke..skip the popcorn,so not professional..what do you think?

So today,we had this seminar..so called "seminar" organised by our english department,some lecturer in charge reminded us to be present in the seminar for the additional point of our term assignment.You just need to watch the movie and join in the discussion afterward although there is an essay to be submit,i couldnt be more happy.Free comedy movies?why not..the most enjoying and entertaining assignment i've ever received in my life.And if you write a good essay,you'll get money award and a certificate.

At the end of the day,backache is still the problem,easily solve when you have a massage master at home :P and i'm actually listening to Best Day by Matt White now.heee

Quickie Express,i watched it before with my beloved braddelites and when i watched it again today,the old fragment came rushing back.I miss those moments with them-Ah beng,oni Chan and ce Anita.So today i laughed extra loud because i remember the jokes Ahbeng and Oni gave then when watching this.

Highly recommended The Hangover,i never heard of this movie before until today and it's great.

I love you man,more dramatic but still good.Friendship never die!

In the dark auditorium,everybody enjoying and laughing out loud.
there is a young lady crying sadly.
Cheer up Rey!

unexpectedly thanksgiving!

2009-11-22T22:06:00.010+08:00

Thanksgiving Day is a harvest festival. Traditionally, it is a time to give thanks for the harvest and express gratitude in general. It is a holiday celebrated primarily in Canada and the United States. While perhaps religious in origin, Thanksgiving is now primarily identified as a secular holiday.

And yea i didnt expect to celebrate here in Jakarta.
When i went to church this morning,the church was really full because maybe the famous Korean pianist,Lee Ah Lee,playing only with her 4 fingers came to the church as a guest.Oke,i know about that information but i didnt know that today actually is a thanksgiving day where this church (GKY) celebrate it every year singing songs of praise with a fruit parade on the aisles and has a special thanksgiving offering.Poppy and I were dumbfounded as we didnt prepare the special offering.we feel bad.

I like the part when the pastor said "the amount of offering is not the value that God will receive but the feeling after you give is the value that God will receive"

this year will be a reminder,next year will be the action!

Also unexpectedly when we had a family dinner at Ah Cuh (a chinese restaurant at Duta Mas)
we had this conversation:
my aunt:Vi,what is the meaning of Thanksgiving?
vi:Uhm,thanks and give.American loves thanksgiving.
my aunt:why?
vi:to them,it's the day when they can gather all the member of their family to have a special feast.
everybody:Isnt that like what we do now?

I feel amused,really,so now we have thanksgiving on our calender every year only that we dont have turkey but chilli crab and bowl of rice.

Note: check out Lee Ah Lee, she is really special,an Ichiban piano skills and a great motivation for each everyone of us.
She made thanksgiving today,more meaningful. choo aa eh C:

Halloween in Jakarta

2009-10-31T22:07:00.005+08:00

This year Halloween tradition i watched thriller...at first thought,was a horror[ready with 10 fingers on my face].when we watched,it's actually a killing movie...phew...which let me heaved a big sighed of super relief..i rather watched blood spluttered everywhere than a lady with long hair giving an eerie voice.

And today is also another excuse to eat as many candy as i want..I supposed there's nothing wrong to be a child-like rather than having costume party and drinking alcohols in the middle of night with loud music. having candies are more healthy.

maybe,next year i plan one costume party with only popcorns,juices,pop sodas,fries and endless thriller movie.image signify with halloween are pumpkin and spade.
so,no horror.

who will comes?the nerd might consider it.

dont let it be alien language

2009-10-26T18:00:00.003+08:00

The greatest struggle i have now is the lesson of Bahasa Indonesia.
It's difficult to admit it,it's a hard subject
I couldnt blame the faulty Lecturer as he has plenty experiences educationally.he also is the one who wrote the book,the textbook.I just wandering why the simple formulas of Subject,verb and object is not that simple in Bahasa.I have miss years of that lesson and now i have to survive with it.
Language is fun to learn verbally.Theorically,i really hope I can survive through this semester with a good note and not as a lousy "ex overseas student" whose mother language is Bahasa Indonesia.
I'm not giving an excuse.Excuse is a big mistake i learn over years for a person like lecturer.
and what do you think of French,Japanese or korean that i really want to have in pocket?
they need to be put on hold for temporarily.
Laugh at me,Bahasa Indonesia seems alien to me.

a freshman first day

2009-09-11T21:35:00.001+08:00

i reached home late as 9...normally,you finish school early on the first day and no homework..just having introductions all day long but i was wrong.

I have couple of homeworks and i attend my first swimming class on that day.So unprepared unlike my friend who already wake up at 5 am in the morning when the first class was started at 9,because of the freshman nervous syndrome.I'am totally unprepared.

I go to class with messy hair,late and i forgot to bring shower needs plus goggle for the swimming club.
Lucky,the monday blues were not with me on that day,my friend who's living nearby college lend me her pink cute goggle and shampoo were borrowed easily from my neighbour when taking a bath.

What a first day.

the irritating part,i have to go classes on saturday which clash with my make up job.earn knowledge,fly money!:P

wackier on my left...

2009-08-15T21:59:00.005+08:00

This week hack me to the core!

I was having this one week freshman orientation and you have to wear name tag that you made yourself for the whole week,wear a long black pants with a shirt tucked in neatly and lunch box.

No private transportation were allowed in the college and those who send me has to drop me few miles away from the college.and my college has 3 locations at different street.

So my cousin and my aunt were encouraged me to take a bus which now i have named it the bloody devil because WIB(Wild Indonesia Bus) is like a big monster on the street!Tackle the Jammed and create endless horns from other small monsters on the road.i couldnt care much as long as i reached safely to my college.But..on the first day,sadly,i forgot to bring my wallet that i have to drop and lend 3000 from a very kind lady.at the end,I ojeking to Binus because if you used car,the big possibility is you stuck at the turn called Pasar Palmerah for 1 hour without any movement.

I've try my best to avoid my famous habit called LATE because now i take points so seriously to have a peace college years.Still,you wont live without these nonsensical obstacles such as mistaken for the time,overslept in the bus,lost your way and the earlier reason;forget wallet.Yet............
God always hear my prayer the second i pray and I'm safe.

It's weird to be back to school again,especially at the end of the day you've to write letters to your mentor?yup...anyway...they are nice...no crazy prank from the seniors like you watch in the tivi.they do it profesionally.

And guess what CCA that i've joined?
I've joined swimming club and nippon club.hehehe...
and maybe band...

so the me hack going to have a long rest now.
because on the 17 august i have to go back to that Bee college again for Upacara as early as 6 oclock.

I'm a bee.

blessings to ce jojo and ko ricky!

2009-07-18T18:10:00.002+08:00

Ce Jojo,is a interesting personality which i adore..feel happy to know her better when she joined Fa Blessed but sadly today i cant witness the biggest day of your life after your new born in Christ.

Ce,Ko ricky.....happy ending is my forever wish to you!

i love you.

p.s:help me pass this msg to ce jojo if anyone come across this posting,aye.merci.

i know i'm just a perfect stranger

2009-07-18T11:11:00.004+08:00

uhm.....after reading news after news,i concluded every same news into one.so ironic.

Rihanna has the concert off at Jakarta because she had a vulgar tiff with her ex boyfriend,Chris Brown

Jacko has his concert off because he suddenly passed away.

Madonna cancelled her concert at France because there was failing of stage which caused some death

and Man U cancelled coming to jakarta because of recent bombing.

some bands concert were also cancelled because of swine flu.

Tickets were sold off..everybody are waiting in anticipation.

those...those reasons that caused all this mess,is all tragically happened.

disappointment,despair,mourning,big sums of money were wasted,seems like money is so easily gone,that money..can save thousands of dying people in this world.

but,what can i understand?i only can just watch from a distance and hope everything going to be better for them.

Each has each problem but to famous people,not only them,most population in the world is affected.

Only one person can save the whole nation,Jesus.

black and white

2009-07-16T20:43:00.004+08:00

no..no about jacko this time...it's about the taiwanese series PI ZI YIN XIONG (ruffian and hero) that i just watched recently.Always famous as the Hua ze lei and the cute newcomer,Mark zhao are the main leading actors in the series.With interesting stroy plots,every corner of thrill and every mind-working scenes.this series has entertained me beyond my expectation.
For those who knows me well,i am the type who dont watch CSI,read detective Conan and will only go to watch 007 to accompany closed ones.I know that Deathnote is good but at least this time i went to the shop and especially buy the series.i'm glad that i'm not disappointed but truly like it.
This is going to be my first time own a detective series and maybe my last time,unless zaizai acting on the cool movie again.because he is hot as a cheeky detective.

P.S: i think i should own a fake gun and carry it everywhere here at jakarta because is so scary dangerous on the road.But God protection is the best armour.

The mighty contreng

2009-07-09T21:47:00.003+08:00

i miss my legal age to do this..so this is my first time!
feel great that i can choose a leader for Indonesia..
and SBY dont disappoint me!

MJ

2009-07-09T20:52:00.005+08:00

So,i admit that i'm one of million human alive on earth having the best spot infront of the tivi to watch MJ memorium till the end of the ceremony,tears were wet and dry in between of the ceremony especially when Jacko's little princess say her love to her beloved daddy..quite a tearful moment.

Am i one of the mad fan of Jacko?
It's neutral..i've been always admiring those talented entertainers that God has created on earth regardless their controversial that only paparazzi can produce.But,Jacko is abit of exception for me to only feel normal for him as he affected me deeply.
although to be called as his fan,i really not up to the standard.i didnt own his collections (soon,one will be enough),i didnt have his poster in my room,or all sort of normal fan will do.I only have his few hit song in my ipod and i'm just shocked to a high extent that my adrenaline flow really fast under my skin when i heard that he is dead through a customer's twitter.

witnessing my surrounding,whether they are also affected,they did.my family or the kakaks will always switch to channel that has jacko on it.He is forever phenomenal.

This is the best i can do,to note you in my life diary.A man who i looked up despite many stitches on you,you love children,you care for the world and now let God's angels do the rest to protect your own children.I love you Michael Jackson.

"I see God in children thus i feel comfortable when i'm with them" -jacko

i'm not vacuum

2009-06-16T14:52:00.006+08:00

looking at the picture,well.....it's just for a reference that devi is alright with her angel that always protecting her....

for half a year in Jakarta,i've already killed many big bad habits of mine..who says habit is always a habit,the big bad guy will still lose.

from this make up journey,i need to wake up damn early when there is wedding day,or when there is outdoor/indoor photo session to assist my cousin.one habit of not morning person has dead.although,every little time i can find to steal,i will nap abit.

to be always physically clean,to catch a good impression,i have stopped biting my nails.now i'm addicted to pedicure since i got it free from my aunt salon.heh.

to avoid having more stomach upset,i watch my diet eating abang-abang food trolley.

to save money for many many things especially,pink racing vespa.i always eat at home first though the temptation outside hard to resist,at least i dont overspend.[anyway i'm so happy that the popular XXL chicken available too in Jakarta,love it]

diligently taking bath,because everybody knows you cant avoid jakarta dusty dust

well,well,every little thing i wish to blog it all the time but sadly,my phone instead of upgrade,it downgrade dastrically.heh..so another reason to save money.

and i pray i can go to cece wedding :P

Bak-chang,the meat tree?

2009-05-26T23:56:00.003+08:00

my aunt made bak chang,and i can get my special request of fillings..salted egg and the meat without the Hebi (dried prawn)...

she is the best mum after my mum,and i love her.

the bak chang feel so special because she knows i love bak chang that she make the bak chang this year after 5 years of non-homemade bakchang.

ICHIBAN!

the bell rings

2009-05-11T21:54:00.002+08:00

yea...the wedding bells of my closed ones going to ring very long this year,i had more than 5 cece going to be a bride this year.great news after great news and here i'am standing at my vendor to promote wedding packages.

Yes,3 days grand wedding exhibition that only held once a year at PRJ Kemayoran,i was exist there.Helping my aunt's sister and my cousin to promote their bridal and photography,a long sighed of relief that it's finally over.

My aunt who has a bridal named after her,Julia Sposa was her fruit from years of hard work.Her current bridal located at PIK,and all her gowns are customed designs and pure hand made.Start to love sewing when she was 12 years old and now 38,she is a lady boss who owns four storey of bridal.

My cousin,robby artanto,23,who graduated from Binus in computering degree,dare to chase his passion for photography that he collaborated with aunt Julia in wedding photography called Pittura (in italy-potrait).

As a normal crowd,you confused for the restaurant to eat,for the boutique to shop,for the package to choose.it only last for a short tick of confusion.

And as the one who owns a business,i feel that i had a great barrier for full confidence.especially when you are at an exhibition,or shall i say the fighting arena?we called ourselves a competitor rather than a boss.

I learned that,if we called ourselves a competitor,we will exhaust ourselves at the end because it will be endless journey yet sometimes it push us to new level of ideas and creativity.is it true we are linked in this life?we only just need to believe in ourselves,do what we can do and do the best.the rest,Daddy in Heaven will press another button for us.

So at this exhibition,although tired,i've met new friends instead of enemies.i enjoyed myself very well.

2009-05-05T21:14:00.007+08:00

For to me,to live is Christ and to die is gain.If Iam to go on living in the body,this will mean fruitful labor for me.Yet what shall I choose?I do not know!I am torn between the two: I desire to depart and be with Christ,which is better by far but it is more necessary for you that i remain in the body.Convinced of this,I know that i will continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith, so that through my being with you again your joy in Christ Jesus will overflow on account of me. Phil 1:21-26

This verse has given me a great jolt.

almost half of 2009 i had spent in Jakarta,is it too early to speak about christmas?because believe me,it's getting near.if i used the half and quarter language.

last saturday,i went to help chung and his associates for his school social project,part of their semester percentage.i helped them in documentation:my first time going to a village and do social work.The village is called Dragon Bay (teluk naga). Chung and his associates were teaching the village ibu-ibu to bake cupcake with oven and a traditional stove.This event really caught my interest.

It's good to be a stranger one fine day that i'm free to hide behind the camera,capturing the students teaching with great amount of patient and the villagers eagerness of learning,their enthusiast faces and the children innocency.even under the hot sun,it's worth it.

now,
i hope every little space of my time,i could also share my love to the ones i miss and those around me.

2009-04-06T20:36:00.004+08:00

Today...i had today for myself..finally...kinda miss the time when ce anita,ko david and beng is not around and i stay home myself,stuck in my room at braddel the whole day to catch up with long waiting list of drama.Forget about the world outside and all your worries.Cry and laugh in an unrealistic moment.At least after that,i still can say life is good like ce bombie post although in the process of life,it's more difficult than the game monster.

Another Rainie Yang drama captivate me,i cant say i dont like her.

Together [love has to be together],yes yes...it's another romantic comedy drama but i believe it has their own unique script.would i ever be entertain to watch it if it's so typical?I wont.
This is a good drama,pump you a new sweet love story.

is it embarassing that i love to watch romantic comedy drama?a normal girl wont feel shy about it and i'm not.

and now i have to get my brain function well again for my portfolios and another step to my dream.School of photography.

Revenge is sweet

2009-03-18T21:00:00.004+08:00

nobody really tell me about my youngest childhood,all i have is vague memory of it.today i've discovered my past.

Though the era has changed,people move on and change.Everything is change.Nothing can cover the past with clean work because you forget,others remember.

This afternoon,my aunt told me a story about me.maybe to motivate me or just to remind me that i have to achieve better than my aunt and my mum.

when i was two years old,I have a very high fever that almost cause my tiny pair of eyes to blind.My dad and my mum doesnt care that they need to spend big sums finding me the best doctor,thus,some of relative from my paternal side were jealous of me.I wonder why?i'm still a baby that yet to see the world.

i'm my dad and my mum's precious jewel..That's what my aunt has told me.

But the look of others to me were full of jealousy.

Daddy in heaven has given me a great chance to see this beautiful world until today.He didnot forsaken my parents hope.

That's not all,i found out many sad stories behind my childhood happy picture.Then i thought of favourite line of my friend:revenge is sweet which I would want to give to those aloof and ungrateful relatives.

But..........i dont know why,I dont hate them.Maybe i will if i never get the chance to know Jesus.My heavenly daddy has given me a new blood that full of love,full of passion,full of hope,full of forgiveness.full of Jesus's blood.The blood controls my whole being.

forget the the past to move on,forget the past and feel the present,forget the past and plan for the future,people are always saying them but today i think differently because sometimes the past make you stronger in the present.

Gargantuan Orange

2009-03-16T22:56:00.004+08:00

A Wretched mood I had for these while,feel that the time is eating me and i'm too difficult that i cant move to another organ smoothly.a long break?I wouldnt even dare to think about it.see,time consuming!ugh.

I just need crazy roller coaster rides.i wouldnt mind many rounds.

But.....

I've got something really better than anything i expect of.

On the way to Puri today,for ACE session,the time when the sun is brushing it's teeth before it sleep.That brushing teeth period is really captivating.

I saw a really gargantuan orange clear sun,surrounded by the pink purple sky.it was so awesome that it caused me blink-blink for a while.hehehe...
another amazing thing is,let me shout this out:it's here!JAKARTA,my birth town!

a wonder that God has created.To please me and ease me.man-made has lose many points creating roller coaster!:P though i still want to ride on!hiya!

The bad thing is i left my camera and phone at home.and we are on the road that no reliable cellphone i can use to capture this gigantic sun.

And...and...it reminds me of Takeshi in Accuracy of death,he is so much wish to see the sunny sky and he never thought he is able to see one.at the end of the movie,he seen it.

Whereas i'm here,never knew that the sun can go beyond the sunset beauty until today.

address to Young

2009-03-06T20:59:00.005+08:00

Hey young,

This is for you...Finally...

Nothing to hide,You once a popular character in my life.until now,i bet.

The last time i met you,fragments of our memory rushing back to me.

I must admit,i miss those days.

I dont want to turn back and i dont want to fall in the same cycle again because i know you too much and i know who you needed the most.

But at times,I'm melting.

You indeed have your ways of doing those eccentric thing that pull me back to you.

Still,i'm not her anymore.

i'am now,just your little friend that wish you all things good.

05 March baby!

2009-03-05T00:02:00.004+08:00

Special attention to Elisa Leo Santoso,Omedetou Tanjoubi onesan!

You are my beautiful model,
You are my alibi to escape from daily schedule for a day
You are my resistant cup that i'm able to pour my hot or cold tea

My prayer for you,i wish it in my heart.

I love you.

*now i'm really irritate with blogger image uploader or i shall blame the connection*

from bali with love

2009-02-28T22:30:00.007+08:00

I want to close this month with love from bali....

Although tired and tanned from spending four days at Bali for profession as assistant photographer cum stylist cum model,i promised myself that i want to go back there for holiday or even for tiring job again!

i thought bali is an easy networking place,which i thought i can coincidentally meet the people i met at soekarno hatta airport again at bali.I'm wrong.

Photo hunting were took place from the centre of bali [we stay at Kuta] to the north-end of bali [Tanjung Ujung,Ubud,Tanah Lot,Nusa Dua,Nikko hotel,Sukowati,Dream land resort;own by Tommy Soeharto].each place took 2 to 3 hours distance by car.

the reasons that i want to go back to bali again and again,i have a long list.

1.beautiful people everywhere :] ( i noticed no chinese local there though)
2.The people who work in servicing line,really friendly and sweet.although they do it for work,they didn't get blind money.i like them.
3.Sunset at Tanah Lot is so amazingly awesome.
4.The interior is so unique and special that i want to fill my house with them in the future.
5.they really respect their religion and never fail to do their ritual.
6.I want to be a surfer school student!
7.scenery mountain,beautiful ocean,urban life,you want it at the same day?you can find it here.
8.the food is weird especially this food called Dirty duck meal but it's good and i have not try all yet.
9.i miss the sunrise due to raining,i wouldnt want to miss it again.
10.The sky,I have an intimate feeling with them.

This month,i got my valentine from Bali :]

*so really wished to upload the photos so that i can tell the story more but i'm going to mould infront of the screen* next time yay.

present tense

2009-02-12T23:30:00.004+08:00

fast paced.fast beat.fast.fast.i only have 10 minutes and i'm struggling to downpour all thoughts.

at first i thought,i could wait until i have ended my special 0ne month training.i described to my peeps that i have go to mountain to master a special kungfu fits from a highly formidable shifu.No fun times.No leisure.Ironically,yes i'am.

More to detail,now I've become the student of Mr AndiYanto,he is an expert professional make up artist.Why so serious?because my beloved aunt has spent many zeros on me.and not to disappoint her,i only have one thing to do,Focus.

initially,it feel a push,a hard push but seems like i'm starting to like this experience.Basically i love colours,and now the profession that i have dive into cannot stand without colours so it feel great but..there is always a but.i have nightmare everyday because in this training i have to face 30 different faces and to make it beautiful,it's really very difficult.

and yes i also took a driving lesson,a laughable experience.I think racer who born from Indonesia is well potential,only that they are not publicised as often as Kimi or Hamilton,I think.
So many cautious: i have to be 2 meters away from the opled,rhythm with braking because suddenly pops:one lady crossing the road,the abang roti,the sate man with his trolley,the crazy motorcycle drivers and the Jammed.I'm stress at the street.but i get through though.i love automotive and i love racing.

i'm packed and whole but deep in my heart i miss my peeps there in Singapore.
and i wished them LOVE.Happy valentines

Nano,not the candy

2009-01-19T19:02:00.005+08:00

Surrounded by the sound of hairdryer,Hahaha of the middle-ages,young girls choosing pattern for their nails,most importantly surrounded by zillion of hair.
oh yes,due to Chinese new year,which around the corner,crowd cant stop coming in to my aunt salon.That i just realised owning a salon business is not bad after all,each day income thou unexpected,it's alot.
despites all the noise,there is a young lady who feel sleepy all the time.She wants to fledge.

And now,getting used to live with a complete family,my uncle's,they have many frequent place[langganan] that they go and one of the place that took my attention is Nano.

Nano is located at Peluit and it's a place where people come for reflexology.i though at first it's just a small place with only few massagers around but when i enter through the sliding door,and another pushing door i was really amazed.inside,it contains hundreds of worker and patrons.

I dont really like massaging,it feels ticklish but after my cousin assured me that i will enjoyed it,so i'm there sitting at the chair similar to the executive plane,accompanied by a mini tv that has global and local channel.i was pampered for 90 minutes.the price is only 45000 rupiah.

Nano also has a mini market that sells what cold storage sells,part of it.I can come always come here to fill my emptiness(missing singapore).

I must be in love with nano.

Facing the giant

2008-12-30T20:38:00.003+08:00

living in Singapore although alone,my life is easy but being here at Jakarta,i was slapped awake to the reality and i concluded that it's very scary,at least for me..

The challenge is begin.

My Giant is myself,my weakness of having too many choice.

this is the time for me to grow,to choose and to be responsible of what i've chosen.

to learn to promise that i wont regret it.

I'm still glad after i've chosen it,many interesting mystery of this place is open to me.I'm starting to love this place and excited to wait for many more unlock treasure :]

You see,being a God's child,even you go to a most deserted place,you wont be afraid because you are yourself the light.

Post birthday appreciation

my night with my princesses

2008-12-16T13:26:00.007+08:00

one wet night,four of the foursome [Lolla,Jenita,Rachel and myself] had a blast together for that almost 5 hours.
I missed Rachel and she is now with her new chic haircut,she blew me away :P

we did what the girlfriend does,though it's just a short one,from my part;i really enjoyed it.
To have 'click and we are a great' girlfriends is not easy.

The rules for girlfriends: i'm just kidding!

Yes,because we doesnt need that.We are different,obviously.We are all from God's kingdom.

So yesterday night was an awesome night.

We had our dinner at all time favourite Kentucky and although we had movie to catch in less than 10 minutes,being us...we wont miss the snapshots in the Big Box called neoprint.

and so on our way to our big screen,heh,we discuss our problem to make the picture bigger by using a midi called scanner,we need someone who has it...that is the disadvantage taking picture in the box,you'll receive tiny print.and the problem carried till we've finished watching the movie.

our big screen; Nick and Norah's infinite playlist,it's a hilarious movie with some controversial though but that is fine,because that's not the point from the movie.It's also my first time watching with my love Lolla.she quite a HOO-HAA..hehe...it was great!

and our night ended up with eating DONUT.nobody hates it in our clique!heh.

anyway,thank you for the teddy&flower lolla,i feel like i'm your spouse!hope Kuya dont mind!

My...My...My...i cant get away smiling thinking of them.

P.s:my night still continue with Jenita,doesnt we baby?

Graduate last Saturday

2008-12-15T15:48:00.014+08:00

Kewl :#

why am i feeling real sad?
I should be happy that i've reached my 6 months target working at breadtalk,i survived well.Shouldnt I?Hey!it's myself i'm talking about!
But..i've grown there,that is the problem.it has became a sentimental value.

everywhere there is a door,people pull and push,close and open.and the door has become a tool for people to come and go.

colleagues that i met initially at breadtalk,all of them went to another place though we knew just for awhile but that is fine,i'm feeling normal.after they went,the new colleagues who came,these people who is the one i spent my long hours with until the very last hour im at centrepoint breadtalk.I'm going to miss them very much.
Time is the machine to grow value.

I learnt alot from there.they are also the place to make me grow closer to being a God's child.
My patient is being test,my anger is being test,my humbleness being test and my wisdom is being used.
They are also the ones who i keep trying to show that being a child of God is really a great thing!
In return,they know I love Jesus and Jesus loves me.They respect us.

I also learnt bits of managing a business,customer needs,production and skills.

I also learnt breads,breads and breads!many type of breads!

but one important thing that i've learnt,is to accept a person in any condition they are from.To love them whoever they are,like Jesus loves me whoever I am.

Thank you for the opportunity Lord.
