Possesions

I’ve just done my school time, now I’m in my mother’s office, updating my lovely blog again. Since this is the only internet connection I get (besides my Dad’s wi-fi), so I try accept this fact with a very big heart, hikes’ :’( I already missed my mom and dad, they’ve just gone overseas. My mom went umroh -I don’t know if she did this to do her job as a medical staff or just want to do this on her own- while my dad went to Shanghai to attend some medical congress. I pray for their safety on plane.
Meanwhile, yesterday I did my history task for today (yes, Sistem Kebut Semalam works, guys!). I did a splendid autobiography about Rabindranath Tagore, a very talented yet legendary poetry. While I was doing this task, I read one of his love poetry and these words hits me right away:
Love does not claim possession,
but gives freedom.
Do you understand what he said? No, I’ve never got that experience, I was still naïve, and I’m still a kid. So, by my interpretation, have you ever loved someone but that someone has already got his/her own someone specials? I won’t say soul mate for this time, because we (my and you, lovely readers) still young, we still get plenty time to find our own soul mate. So, have you? If you did, read those above words. That really hits me right away; I’ve met so many people who have suffered because of heartbreak. Is it okay to feel heartbreak? Of course it’s okay, we’re still human, and we’re never perfect. Is it okay if you cry because of it? It’s terribly okay, too! But remember those words: Love does not claim possession, but gives freedom. “Cinta tak harus memiliki”, sometimes you don’t have to own that person or make that person to love you back. If you really love someone, you’ll let her/him go to pick her/his own choices of love. If you really love this person, you’ll pray for his/her happiness. You’ll be happy if that person happy. Isn’t that sweet? Yes, it’s sweet. I’ve read a book that says “Love is a sweet torment”, it is true, sometimes love makes us painful, but you want to feel it more and more. Love is a four letter word described gazillion complicated sentences.
So, readers, if right now you feel that you’re having a very bad heartbreak, you’ve just ended your previous relationship, or if you just feeling empty because you’ve got no someone to think to, read those words again, I believe that you are ready to spread some love and finding your someone specials. I know you’ll do, won't you?

need no matter

About my title, i've promised myself from now on, that i'll continue to writing on this blog. even though that if i'll never get my own internet connection at my home. Being inactive because the lack of internet connection really pissed me off. I really love to write, writing is a way to express my thoughts and feelings, and it feels good when i write something, whether it's important or not.

Right, let's move on to my life. So, how's my life? It's pretty well bad, actually. I hate my school (who doesn't?). I hate to do my assignments, i'm not pretty sure that i will have my seat in Science/IPA class, and i'm not quite satisfied with my scores right now. And the problem is, i feel really lonely at school. Isn't that weird? Mente, the yellow girl, is feeling lonely? In many case, i'm still a human with feelings, sometimes i do get lonely, even if i have my friends around. "Have you ever felt that you have everything that everybody wanted but your life is still like an empty hole?" That sentences hit me right away. Oh my, i'm such an emo -_-
But anyway, to heal my loneliness, i watch disney movies. many disney movies. Disney movies are always nostalgic and memorable. I watched Little Mermaid many times and never get bored with it. Besides Disney movies, i also get some new hobbies, such as making silly songs. Acchan is the first lucky star victim to hear one of my newest silly song, i titled it "Cream Soup", at that time i was really hungry and craving for some cream soup, so i did it!
Want to know my other new interest?.................................................


watching Korean hit show "Boys Over Flowers". Please raise your hand if you like to watch it, too!


I know, sounds lame, and weird, and crazy. But hey, some of my schoolmates (they're all girls) are watching that show. Last week, we watched that show on my friend's laptop and we're all screaming because of the gorgeous casts. I've tried sooooo hard to not to watch it, but it's too late, it's contagious yet temptatious. My mind is already contaminated by those Korean guys! I continue to watch it at home, and i always having my pillow around so i can bite it when i'm too excited to watch some heart racing scenes. I even couldn't believe myself, but here i am, hoping that one day that i'll go to South Korea and meeting them :p I had a HUGE crush on Kim Bum, who played the part of So Yi Jung, the playboy one slash gifted potter. The fact is, he's young, and he's single, and he never has a girlfriend, isn't that cuuuuuuute? :3

KIM BUM YOU HAVE STOLEN MY HEART

I think it's enough for today. As i promised you, i'll continue my writing hobby and i can assure you, that you'll read my minds again through this blog. Love ya!

Long time no see

Hey you all, long time no see. I've been abandoned this blog for a while because the whole internet things. You see, my mother's assistant never paid the internet connection, while she told me she never get the internet bills. Oh well, wish me luck with the new connection :p
Anyway, school has spices up a little bit. I did many remedys, and also got some termendous good scores, too. My class has been amazing, our movie is on its way to editing, soon it will be finish, i'll put it here, soon. It's gonna be awesome. Also, i participated in my school's competition called Jakarta In Global. I participated for Storytelling contest., but i didn't win. Well, sucks for that. Oh well, it's a quick update. See you soon!

teenage phase

Today has started not very well, actually. I overslept and woke up at 10 am. That was sucks, because i had miss the shooting for my class movie, and yet this is best scene, argh! Screw my insomnia for this one. Also, i was already late for my pop piano lesson. I quickly took a shower and went to Yamaha PIM 2, and there Mr. Fancy was, sitting on the chair played the clavinova, waiting for me. And even worse, i didn't play the song very well, yet he was patient enough to teach me the chords again, sorry Mr. Fancy. After took some piano lesson, i took chemistry lesson. Yes, on beautiful Saturday where you supposed to meet some friends, catch some parties, gone wild and having fun, i have some chemistry lesson, and what's wrong with that, huh? :p
Anyway, i've just had an amazing dinner at Sushi Tei, Senayan City. It was (too) crowded, but yet i patienly wait for taste some mouthwatering kanimayo tobiko maki(s), salmon maki(s), crunchy roll(s), and share some sukiyaki and salmon head with my mom and sister, now imy stomach is full! Yeay! Oh yeah, while i patiently wait the long queue at Sushi Tei, i realized that many people nowadays are so impatient.
And for sudden, i'm glad that i've through the phase where i go to some place unsure when i'm coming home until midnight There's nothing wrong with that, though. But when i think of that phase again, i realize that i was so stupid. I did that not because i want to meet some friends, i did that because i want to be recognized. Like "hey, i've gone to the mall, too, you know?" For me, that is stupid. Don't get me wrong, but i kinda disagree with opinion "teenagers life = having fun". There are so much things beside popularity, fame, and fortune . We all want to be recognized, we all want to be popular, i know you do, because i've felt that. But you see, i never reach the top of my game because i never satisfied of what i've done to gain my status quo. It's okay to be recognized, but sometimes you just have to find the good ways. I want to be recognized as a very goody-goody girl who never taste bad stuffs, rather than recognized as a girl who's partying, a lot. And it's okay to be geek and freak! I'm a fashion geek, none of my friends understand the word "Rodarte" or "Marchesa". They maybe even think that Alexander Wang and Vera Wang are related. They hate when i said that Zara is cheap for some high-end fashion label, so what? They always feel that i'm an antisocial person and hate mall, so what? I hate when my friends discuss the exams and they don't like me for being cynical, so what? Someday, somehow, i'll grow into a great persona, i know that. You're the one who knows yourself best, not your friends, or even your mom and dad, so, if you like your science books, fine. Be a dilligent student. You like to bake your own cupcakes, sell them then. You like watch TV all day long, find some good informations and tell the world. You can be your own person to be recognized by the world.
You didn't like my post, then so what? Maybe only few people who read my blog and capture my honesty about what i think, but i don't care. As long as i could write my feelings, that's okay. So, start a road, keep dreaming, remember, someday, you'll be great.

kanimayo...........

Before talking about my title, i want to tell you that i hate the whole study process at school. My school has driven me crazy. This week is full of exams, argh, i hate exams. Tomorrow i'm going to have Islamic Education and Biology tests. I supposedly study, but my body is too weak, my brains aren't ready to study them, and i'm too sleepy so i fell asleep at 5 p.m until 9 p.m, wake up to get some dinner, and then go to sleep again and now i wake up again. Pretty unhealthy habit, huh? I know, and this week is full of rainy days, yes i love rain, but it can kill my mood sometimes, kill my romantic mood. "Thunder" from Boys Like Girls is the loveliest song ever, i even wished for special someone to sings me this song, hmmffh.

Anyway, Saturday, please come hurry! I'm craving for sushi, right now. All i can think of is some mouthwatering kanimayo tobiko maki, oh my God, sushi is the best creation of all time! Or maybe, if i don't have anything on Friday after school, maybe i'll go to Sushi Tei by my own, i like walking alone when the Mall isn't crowded, and Friday is the right time to do that.
(Yawn) I'm yawning. Gotta go, folks!

Schizophreniac

I often hear voices right now, blame the word schizophreniac. Anyway, yes, i've changed my link to http://yellowisthenewblack.blogspot.com. *why mente whyyyyyyyyy* Ok, let me tell you why, first of all, the "monyetkuning" domain made me feel, i don't know, "alay"? And now, i surely notice that i hate monkeys, i like chimpanzees and orang utans, which are calmer and cuter and more human friendly than those regular monkeys. And yes No#2, i've deleted most of my previous posts, i'm getting bored with them, they're just some trash written by me, so yeah! I'm a boring person, whatever.

So, today has been exciting, although i couldn't do my History and Chemistry test, i don't give a damn about those asses (whoops). I'm back to Labsky Community Drum again, or you can call them Lamuru, after all those "I'm vacuum right now" crap from my mouth, yes, i miss play my gallon, make some noisy noise again. Today Lamuru got an interview with Ouch Magazine, when i've got the magazine, i'll scan it for you. And the best part is.........................

Mind the badass face of mine. Yes, it's the Lamuru custom drumsticks! I finally got them after a loooong wait. Aren't they such awesome babies? I think i'm gonna name both of them, and then give them some custom labels again by myself. Oh well, school's awesome, without the study part. Ciao!

berryness

Taken from Acchan's Fisheye 2, Fenrir. Yeah i miss Pangandaran :)

Today is boring. I ended up myself to go to Pondok Indah Mall this noon, alone, by myself, not having my friends around. So i wore my blue hoodie to make myself sure if i see someone/something distracting, i would hide my face with my hoodie, i know, sounds paranoid, but i hate crowded places. And one thing that i hate from Pondok Indah Mall is the crowds, the people, you know, people with their very updated and trend-follower outfits. Blargh! Puke at me, i'm such a jerk :p
Anyway, aside of the crowd, i went to Zara, too. Do you know Zara? Well, if you don't know, you should search in Wikipedia, then. I love this affordable (well, not too affordable actually, but hey, the clothings are in good quality, and they're cute!) fashion line, i've known Zara since 4th grade, not many people know Zara back then. Now, they have opened stores In Jakarta, and people went crazy over Zara. Back to business, i'm not a huge fashion fan, since i just wear ordinary teen clothes like jeans and t-shirts. But after seeing the whole new collections of Zara TRF (TRF brand is for teenagers like us), i bet these new collections will make a new trend, i mean, come on, Zara is always one step ahead when it comes to street fashion. And i'm so excited that those "ankle boots" trend is over! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! So here is my predictions about clothes/stuffs that we're gonna wear in Spring/Summer 2009 :

1. Rolled up baggy pants. Katie Holmes did it, so you will do that too. And this item comes with many colours such as grey, pink, or blue. The faded blue is the best, and they have the shredded ones too!
2. Lightweight cotton t-shirt. Not the fitted ones, more like oversize ones. What i see from the collection is the message through the t-shirts, back with nature, hmmmmm.
3. Assymetrical and coat tail cut. These cuts are expanding everywhere from t-shirts, vests, even dresses! Plus, it elongates your body :p
4. Keffiyeh. The arabian coast has back! After all, wear those keffiyehs do remember me of Palestines :'(
5. Deconstructured cut. It's kinda weird for me, but if you want to try them, go ahead!
6. Leather jackets. Mommy i want thissssssssssss!
7. Belts. Do you even remember when you put your belts on your jeans? And this is the right time to do it!
8. Biker-look outfits. You know, grungy, full of studds, and it looks cool.
9. Harem Pants. Inspired by equastrian, these pants rules, plus they are comfy.
10. Flat shoes. YESSSSS THE FLATS ARE BACK! They're my favorite shoes!
11. Skinny Jeans. Okay, this trend will never gone, right? They are comfortable, they are flattering, but this spring there will be skinny jeans in colors. The berry color dominate this spring, such as burgundy, dark purple, dark blue, or if you want some neutral colors, try grey instead of black, black is boring.

That's all i could remember from Zara. Oh yeah, i forgot, TYE DYE will be in again for sure, so go ahead buy those tye-dye t-shirts!

Pangandaran pt. 2

continued from Pangandaran pt. 2

Setelah akhirnya tersadar gue ga tidur dan menyadari bahwa rambut gue lepek parah *sampe Acchan bilang rambut gue kaya Kangen Band dan dia bersenandung "coba kau pikirkan......." blablabla* gue bangkit dan take a shower. Eh salah, take a gayung! Keramas habis-habisan, terus solat subuh. Sekeluarnya dari kamar, banyak temen-temen gue yang bilang saking panasnya kamar mereka, mereka sampe tidur di luar, ada yang duduk bahkan nekat tidur di lantai, dooooh hebatnya Labschool. Gue sih ngangguk2 aja. Habis pada mandi dan solat, kita sarapan, dan nunggu bus. Ya Allah ya Rabbi, udara pagi yang seharusnya dingin aja jadi panas banget, lebih panas dari Jakarta, yo! Jakarta! Bus dateng, gue langsung lari ke dalem bus, terus duduk, dan tidur. Dan ternyata perjalanan kita ga jauh dan kita sampe di :

Grand Canyon!

Begitu liat tempatnya, muka gue agak sinis, pasti tempatnya another unpleasant nature place. Grand Canyon kaya sungai besar gt, dan airnya keruh banget warna coklat, padahal biasanya airnya hijau. Muka gue makin sinis, dan gue udah niat untuk ga naik perahu buat mengelilingi Grand Canyon, tapi ga jadi, dan here i was sitting on a boat, demi memenuhi tugas fisika. Pas keliling naik perahu..............
Men, gue speechless, keren bangeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet tempatnya! Gue bisa liat berbagai macam pohon dan tanaman dan view yang ga bisa gue bayangkan. Persis Indiana Jones, sampe banyak yang joked kalo beberapa film seperti Pirates of the Carribean dan Indiana Jones syuting disini. Tapi beneran deh, suasananya gokil! Rawa-rawanya keren, sayang gue ga ngeliat biawak :p Terus lanjut sampe ke tujuan akhir, kaya batu-batu gt! Sumpah itu tambah keren lagi, berasa hujan karena air jatuh melulu dari atas. Habis dari situ, kita balik lagi deh ke tempat perahunya. Huhu, gue emang bukan pendeskripsi yang baik, yang jelas Grand Canyon itu keren! Dan lo mesti coba terjun ke dalem airnya, karena gue ga ikutan karena takut basah dan agak menyesal :'(
Habis main2 di Grand Canyon, pada ngaso dulu, minum kelapa dulu, belanja dulu, sempet ngelawak juga di depan bus yang tiba-tiba ACnya mati ugh -_- Untung kita masih sempet bercanda-canda, aaaah i love XB more :) Habis ke Grand Canyon, kita naik bus lagi dan akhirnya melanjutkan perjalanan ke.............

Cagar Alam Pangandaran

Nah kalo yang ini gue beneran sinis deh, soalnya ini cagar alam in-situ, yaitu cagar alam yang ga pernah diubah-ubah biar sesuai habitat aslinya, jadi kebayang kan batu-batu besar, jalan yang nggak rata, dan naik turun mendaki lembah? Nah kaya gt deh, dan gue ga pernah suka sama yang begituan -_- Angkatan gue dibagi jadi 2 kelompok, kebetulan gue kelompok 1 dan tujuan kita semua sebenarnya sama, memasuki Gua, Cave, whatever. Dan itu udah gelap, pengap, ga bisa napas, berasa orang buta, ya Allah bisa gue bayangin orang buta itu gimana ya. Ada berapa gua kali gue masukin, gue lupa, yang jelas gue ga suka, karena buat keluar dari sana caranya harus manjat-manjat segala, duh berasa Tarzan :p Sementara gue mengumpat minta pulang, ada beberapa temen gue yang excited ngerjain tugas Biologi, yaitu ngumpulin beberapa macam jenis hewan dan tumbuhan yang ada disana. Dan Ohmaigat, ada yang ngumpulin cacing lah, kalajengking lah, kaki seribu lah, noooooooooooo gue stres! Argh! Oh iya persis kaya yang di Sangeh, Cagar Alam ini juga banyak akan makhluk yang (tadinya) gue anggap lucu :
Monyet.
Bahkan gue ketemu rajanya, dan itu besarnya segede gajah (nggak deng lebay), pokoknya besar lah. Dan gue baru menyadari gue ga suka monyet, gue lebih suka orang utan dan simpanse yang rata-rata masih friendly dan kalem sama manusia. Dan monyetnya genit-genit dan gahar ya tolong! Dan gue menyimpulkan gerak gerik mereka :
1. Kalo mereka genit (kebanyakan monyet disana demen cewek cantik), mereka bakal gigit kita, narik-narik rambut kita, kaya mau nyium kita, terus gelantungan di atas kepala kita. Dan gue bersyukur gue ga cantik di mata monyet! Walaupun gue pake baju kuning yang notabene monyet sukanya pisang yang warnanya kuning :p
2. Kalo mereka lagi gahar (biasanya mereka gahar buat cowok/cewek yang mereka anggep saingan mereka), tangan mereka bakal kaya posisi mau nyakar orang, terus "WEEEEE" mulut mereka kaya mau gigit kita, persis kaya kingkong!
Dan kenapa gue bisa tau? Karena gue saksi mata, melihat kejadian itu langsung dari 2 orang yang direaksi sama monyet yang sama tapi reaksinya berbeda. Sabar ya kawan-kawan, dua reaksi tersebut ga ada yang asoy. Selesainya menjelajah dan ketemu monyet, kita balik dari bus, keringetan, kecapekan, masih shock, dan ternyata cagar alamnya ga jauh-jauh banget dari penginapan! Sampe di penginapan, gue mandi dan caw ke pantai...........

Men, pantainya keren kok, ombaknya kebetulan lagi besar. Banyak yang sibuk main-main di pantai, lari-lari, nyewa ATV dan sepeda, keliling-keliling, tapi gue cuma diam, merenung, melihat view yang indah itu. Udah gue bilang kalo gue ga terlalu suka pantai, selain panas dan bikin kaki kotor, pantai juga bikin gue jadi melankolis dan lebih peka, dan bikin ngiri, karena banyak yang pacaran -_- Sepulangnya dari pantai, kita makan-makan dan ngegosip ria. Dan gue menyaksikan insiden menyebalkan sebetulnya, yah pokoknya sabar aja ya kawan-kawanku :)
Habis itu ada Malam Keakraban. Dan sayangnya, karena gue udah ngantuk parah, gue jadi nggak terlalu memperhatikan forum angkatan yang dibuat, gue malah sibuk keluar cari angin, karena kepanasan. Habis itu, tidur, dan Alhamdulillah, gue bisa tidur walaupun bangun-tidur-bangun-tidur, seperti motto yang gue buat bareng Acchan : bangun segan tidur pun tak mau.

Besoknya hari ketiga, PULAAAAAAAAAAANG! Akhirnya pulang juga dari hell ini. Gue siap-siap, ngerapihin barang-barang gue, pas bus udah dateng, gue langsung lompat ke kursi, minta obat tidur, terus, bablas ketiduran! Sembari tidur, gue menyadari kalo ketawa anak XB semuanya ANNOYING! Big applause buat Nadine, Adhinka dan Icho yang menurut gue ketawanya minta diceburin ke sungai :p Dan akhirnya, setelah 10 jam membahana dan menteposkan pantat di atas kursi bus, gue sampe di Jakarta! Seneng banget rasanya, coming home, seeing my mom, ketemu kamar mandi uohohohoho :p Dan hari ini gue absen masuk sekolah karena ga enak badan -_- Biarin lah, daripada dipaksain masuk terus sakit.

Intinya, Pangandaran Trip Hastara cukup menyenangkan kok, albeit penginapannya yang bikin OMFG banget -,- So, sampe ketemu di kelas 11, Jogja Trip! :D

Panngandaran pt.1

So, today, kali ini ceritanya pake bahasa Indonesia aja ya pake bahasa Inggris rebek hehe :p

Like Acchan wrote on her post, i'm gonna share my story about my study tour to Pangandaran (Nte katanya bahasa Indonesia). Oke, gue bangun sekitar jam 5.15, mandi, terus solat subuh. Gue udah packing dari malam Selasa dan pagi itu gue tinggal ngecek2 tas aja, dan gue berangkat jam 5.45. Tau sih disuruh ngumpul jam 5.30, sebodo amet ah haha :p Sesampenya di sekolah, briefing sebentar, dan akhirnya berangkat pake bus hijau sekitar jam 7an *fyi gue sempet parno karena katanya kalo ke pangandaran ga boleh bawa yang ijo2, jadi gue sempat ngayal kalo busnya ntar keseret air laut haha konyol ah :p*
Di bus, seperti biasa, foto2, ketawa-ketiwi, ngegosip, makan snack, dan gue mencoba tidur juga, since i only slept about 5 hours sebelum bangun dan berangkat. First stop :

Kampung Naga, Garut

I've heard the myth kalo mau ke Kampung Naga kita harus menuruni sekitar 170 anak tangga buat sampe ke sana. Sebetulnya gue males (bangeeeeeeet) turun ke Kampung Naga, tapi mau ga mau harus turun buat ngerjain tugas beberapa pelajaran. Pas turun, dooooh kok nggak nyampe2 ya? Apalagi gue bukan tipe penurun-naik-tangga yang baik, jadilah Etsa sabar menunggu gue susah payah turun tangga. As i walked downstairs i met some bule people, muka mereka merah, itu tandanya mereka kecapekan banget, DAMN, bule-bule yang tinggi, kuat dan biasa olahraga aja bisa kecapekan begitu apalagi guaaaaaaaa?
Dan ternyataaaaaaaaaa, bukan 170 anak tangga yang berhasil gue turunin, tapi sekitar 340an! Man, gue udah mulai panik, turunnya aja bikin kleyengan apalagi naiknya? Benar saja, mates, after we finished our tasks, begitu naik dan mendaki 340an anak tangga, eya loooooooooo, itu capeknya luar biasa, ga ada satupun anak2 angkatan gue yang kuat naik tanpa ngeluh atau ngos2an, semuanya sama, mendesah kelelahan (apa sih bahasanya). Begitu sampe, Alhamdulillah, gue langsung masuk bus, dan katanya muka gue merah bener persis bule-bule tadi. Habis dari Kampung Naga, we continued our trip to...........

Pangandaran!

Oh ya, have i told you that i never like beaches? Bukan ga suka sih, but i'm not a big fan of beach, mungkin karena gue ga suka panas kali ya :p Selama perjalanan menuju kesana, udaranya dingiiiiiin banget, plus AC di bus dingin pula, i wished i brought my yellow hoodie next to my arm, sesampainya di Pangandaran, embun yang nempel di kaca tiba2 ilang, feeling gue udah mulai ga enak, jangan-jangan Pangandaran itu panas. Begitu sampe di Penginapan (baca : Penginapan, bukan HOTEL!), iya loooooooooo itu panasnya minta ampun, padahal gue sampe di Pangandaran sekitar jam 8an. Dan feeling gue makin ga enak begitu ngeliat kamarnya. Itu pengap panas hot smokin on fire, whatever. Intinya kamarnya panas dan gue bisa memastikan diri gue kalo gue ga akan bisa tidur.
Habis bersih-bersih diri *fyi (again) selama disana setiap bersih2 diri gue pasti keramas, karena rambut gue ga sinkron sama kondisi udara disana sedih ga sih?*, kita makan malam dan acara bebas. Akhirnya di lapangan kita nyanyi2 sok2 ngedugem (alah sok ngedugem lo Nte, dengerin musik disko aja kleyengan) dan foto2, sampe akhirnya jam 10 kita disuruh masuk kamar buat tidur.
............damn, gue kepanasan, menyesal tidak membawa shorts gue, gue pake training Panca yang pewe dan bahannya dingin aja masih bikin gue kepanasan, udah nyalain kipas angin, hanya berkipas saja, tidak mengeluarkan angin. Shit, itupun kondisi kamar gue cukup lapang karena Nadine pindah kamar tidur di kamar lain, jadi di kamar hanya ada gue, Acchan dan Dhani. Sementara mereka sukses tidur walaupun gue tau mereka nggak nyaman banget tidurnya, gue masih membuka mata gue, menangis, and then i called my mom.
"Mamaaaaaaaaaa Manda ga bisa tiduuuuuuuuuur!" Sambil nangis terisak-isak gue cerita kalo gue kepanasan, kangen rumah, kangen nyokap *aduh manja banget ya gue, but really, i can't stand hot air!* and luckily my mom's voice could calmed me down a bit, walaupun gue tau pasti nyokap gue ngantuknya setengah mati, karena gue menelpon jam 1 pagi Setelah terisak-isak, akhirnya gue mencoba tidur lagi, tapi tetep ga bisa karena gue mimpi buruk terus, hiks :'( Dan itu terus terjadi sampe akhirnya gue liat jam di HP gue menunjukkan angka 4.30 dan gue tersadar gue ga tidur sama sekali.........

diy or die

I kinda upset. I regret myself for going to school today, just because i thought there would be this seminar lectured by some of the most prestigious and qualified universities in Indonesia, such as ITB, UI, and UGM. I consider and often think what's the best for my future, know about qualified universities and know what they have is important. Yeah, call me a geek or a psycho, but i can't live teenagers forever. I grow up, i have to get some higher and better educations. Eventually, the seminar is only for 12th graders and i was stuck at Mosque, trying so hard to listen to this Enterpreneurship seminar, argh!
Anyway, i have this keyring that has many charms and beads all over it, it's so giant, and heavy. I couldn't do anything with it, so i unhooked some of the charms (mostly the big ones) to make it lighter. And then......................
I have this idea to make the charms into something more useful, like statement necklace, earrings, or even charm bracelet! So i think tomorrow i'm gonna ask my driver which places that has necklace chains or something. Here are some of the precious ones :

The triple thread are awwwesome for statement necklace!


I love bunnies! And for the oval ones, my mom will laugh if i wear these for earrings -_-

Some of them aren't unhook yet, i'm gonna unhook more later for the charm bracelets.

Oh well, diy projects starts now, or die! ;p

cookie jar

Ugh, i want some cookies right now, gimme some Famous Amos ;)
Anyway, i haven't update my blog since....... okay, just 4 days. I've been doing some great things this week. I finally came back to school again, meeting my friends on last Monday, and my classmates were crazy! They were hugging me and screamed out loud and kept saying they miss me, whoa! I miss those screams, and i'm glad i finally come back to Jakarta, to my school. But of course, aside of missing my schoolmates, i also hate to come back to my school. Reason? The school study process, ugh, i hate studying, and leaving school about one week makes me crazy, i mean, i miss so many lessons and i have to study harder now. I wish i was like Rico from Hannah Montana, he has this photographic memory so he can remember anything that he sees in just seconds.
But oh well, meeting my friends again was awesome, Wednesday was awesome for me. My physics teacher (i think) forgot to teach my class, and my class throwing some knockout stories like things we did during Trip Observasi, we cracked our laughs really hard because there were many funny moments that we had or just heard some horror stories that made you horrified, or doing some pranks that i couldn't tell you because it's cruel (secret, sssh) we're all gather around and it makes me feel like i'm having the best school mates :)
******************************
So today my school is doing some events called Parents day, my school invites many people who professionally doing their job very well, my school even make some Universities stands, i bet there are about 20 stands. These are for 12th graders actually, but it feels so lucky that they did this every year, it helped me a lot for my future, since i can't decide which job that i would love to choose. For 10th graders, there are these studies about faculty classes that we could choose in the future. I took the law class and medical class. The law class was great, we were doing some case simulation and i've got to be an attorney. The medical class? Good, but not great. I wished that my father or my mother could fill this class, since they are both doctors ;p
Oh well, today is the report-card day, too! How's mine? Let me show you my scores :

I'M BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!

Yes peeps, i'm back from my late-holiday to Japan! How was it? Marvelous, splendid, although i didn't buy many stuffs, but hey, holiday is about finding and experiencing new things, right? I did my culinary travel, and yes, japanese food are = Y-U-M! I went to Disneysea too, and i cried when i arrived there, hehe :D You can see my photos in my Facebook account.
Anyway, back to reality, i left school for about one week, and surely many things left. Back to reality, girl. Now i have to study hard again, have some scolding moments with my teacher, and happy moments with my school mates, again! Gosh, i miss my friends, my class, and i heard there are 5 new students in my school. How cool is that? Ha! Bye folks!

How's your new year's eve folks? Hope you had an amazing party last night, how about me? I'm staying at my house, watching some good movies on HBO, saving my energy for my late-holiday. I envy my best friends a little bit, they were celebrating new year's at one of my friend's place, so i bet there were lot of madness there, i hope you were having fun girls :) I'm okay here :p
Well, i don't know, i'm a little bit hopeless about 2009, especially because i'll be seventeen next September! Seventeen! That's a legal age, and maturity age. Ugh, i hate to be an official adult, i don't want to grow up, i want to be forever immature teenager :( So maybe in 2009 i will be this spoiled kid, just enjoying rest of my kid-time. Ah, i don't know, it's been crazy today, i haven't slept since 5 pm yesterday, crazy enough! I'll take some nap, bye!

2008

I went to Zara today and found this cute yet rockin' sneakers, and it costs about 450 thousands rupiah, not too shabby yet expensive for Zara stuffs *sure, it's already a discount price -_-*, anyway i've seen Acchan's post about her best and worst moments in 2008, and i think i'm gonna write them, too!

boredom

Yeah, i'm preparing for my late-new-year holiday to Japan. You can see some coats and jackets, there. I actually borrowed more jackets, ha! :p I haven't bought my boots :'( i couldn't find the perfect pair for my feet, yet i found my long-lost knee legging in my wardrobe cabinet, my oh my! This holiday nights driving me crazy! I sleep at 3 a.m in the morning, then wake up around afternoon and do my daily activities until 3 a.m and doing the same routine again! Gosh, i absolutely hate holiday nights! Oh well, gotta go, adiós!

brianstorm

No, i'm not listening to Arctic Monkeys, Adele instead :p Argh, i have so many ideas this holiday, yet i don't know how to do all of them :( My head is brainstorming with these ideas, here are some plans that i would love to do this holiday :

1. Go to Pasar Senen! Ugh, so badly wanna go there! I try to find some old-worn oxford shoes, or even better, ankle boots -_-
2. Gossip Girl season 2 marathon! I miss my so-hot-yet-tortured-yet-devilish Chuck Bass, ah Edward Westwick is bittenly yummy :3
3. See my winter clothes, which mostly borrowed from someone. I hope the items are classic, so it's easy to mix and match them.
4. Make some sweets, like fudges, s'mores, or even better, dry cakes! I never try to touch the oven, holiday season is the right time to do it.
5. Make the new link for my blog....

"WHOAAAAAA, YOU MEAN YOU"RE MOVING TO THIS NEW ONE?"

No, silly friends, i'm sticking to this lovely one, i'm going to make a new blog for my alter-ego.

"WHAT? AN ALTER EGO?"

Yes, like Beyonce who named Sasha Fierce as her alter-ego on stage, i have one too as my alter-ego of fashion! Why am i doing this? Well, i love fashion so much, i fell in love with designing, so suddenly i'm having this crazy idea to make some new fashion blog, full of sketches and drawings, plus my favorite personal fashion stuffs, yum :3 So please pray for this secret alter ego, i have drawn her, but i need to make her more perfect, it's still 10% :p

"OKAY, SO WHAT'S HER NAME? WHAT IS SHE LOOK LIKE?"

It's still a secret, friends, just pray she'll be finished as soon as possible, love ya!

xoxo,
Menteee

p.s : for those who have my msn and want to know her name terribly, take a look at my name, it's her intial :p

productivity

I couldn't sleep right now, i'm always insomniac on holiday nights *sigh*. I'm supposed to go to Dufan with my friends today, but what a heck, because of this insomnia i couldn't wake up and my head feels really heavy in the morning, so i decided not to go :'(
But anyway, the good parts are today, i'm making some japanese kare! I got the recipe from closetcooking, and what's the result? IT IS TREMENDOUSLY DELICIOUS, GUYS! I love it, thank you closetcooking you make my day!
I also made some sets for my polyvore profile, 7 sets! Congratulations to me, yeay me!
Here is one of my (favorite) sets :
