I am now introducing you, back to school outfit for this semester. Ah, I wouldn’t mind to wear them, like seriously, they are perfect. Anyway, I will be extremely busy in the following week, with school, shifting between assignments and papers, friends, family, and life. We’ll talk later. See you around.

best of what's around

Here are the snapshots I took from UPH Festival 2010. There were lots of people brought their own camera and took photos everywhere. It was so much fun to see the crowds and all the excitement. But now, all the euphoria of festival is over, and we are facing the reality, which is school is starting. Ha!


marching on!

There was UPH Festival held back on August 12, 13, and 14. The festival was conducted annually in order to welcome the new students in my university, and it wasn’t my first time to join. I mean, I’m a senior already but not a final year student yet. Well, I’m still in my fifth semester, and for this wish-not-so-bloody-messed-up fifth semester, I’m taking up full credits (24) for the sake of my timely graduation. Ah, I’m very not excited at all! Another rambling, I know. So not cool and child alike, but what the hell, time will wait for no one, right? So, I have to get my butt off and keep going. I’ll be working everything out somehow. God, please help and guide me! *finger crossed*

PS. I’ll post another photographs I took from the festival. Just wait and see, okay!

before the parade over

Hello, people. How are you? I wish you were all fine and in a good health, both physically and emotionally. I was sick as a dog in these past days, but now, thank God, I’m feeling much way better. I suffered from typhoid fever and it was the third since the last time I was afflicted with the same illness in elementary school. Oh, anyway I had taken load of photos before the break was over and I am more than pleased to share them with you. So, here are some photos I took from Dufan. Enjoy!

PS. The last photo is heaven!

it makes me smile when you said it is the best

Shared an enjoyable night with my sister and her best friend. We hung out together, ate Thai food, and took lots of pictures. We tried a new restaurant named ‘Grasshopper Thai’ which - obviously - serves Thai cuisines. The food was okay, though it might not satisfy your hunger for super delicious food. I won’t recommend this restaurant for picky eater, but I don’t mind to come again. By the way, I bumped into my senior on the way and casually said hi to him when my sister out of nowhere perked up and mocked me for having such relationship with my senior. So embarrassing.

stay with me in this moment

Last Saturday, I sat in on my sister’s birthday treat. I had a good time there and the weather was also nice. To be specific, it was balmy and pleasant. I wore my sister’s white lace dress, which was one size smaller but it still fitted my body well so it was no problem after all. Love the dress but it is obvious not for me. Ah, I forgot, the dress is actually my sister’s, so it isn’t belong to me in the first place.

home of the whopper

I am so excited growing my hair out, and I really can’t wait until it’s long enough to cover my whole back. It was a rough struggle I must admit. I mean, I’ve never had long hair since junior high, and every time my hair reached shoulder, I would cut them off immediately. Up to this moment, I’ve been restraining myself not to drag my feet any near salon, and it’s been more than 5 months already since my last visit. Am I proud of myself? Oh yes, be sure I am. Ah, another trashy talking, sorry. Anyway, I went to Burger King with my brother this Friday. Actually we went to do grocery shopping with family, but my brother suddenly came and said that he wanted to grab some food, so we ended up at Burger King. Those photos above are what my brother and I captured. Boring poses, I know. Ha!

caramel tiramisu

Playing with my 55-200 Nikkor lens to shoot Caramel Tiramisu from Clairmont Patisserie & Bistro. Personally saying, the cake was so fine and I like it. Oh well, it is only me who has a great liking for sweet-tasting foods; so generally I eat everything tastes sweet and sugary. It is obvious a bad habit but I just can’t rein back my sweet tooth. Ah, I need a better excuse I suppose.

W A T E R B O M

I had a pretty good day yesterday under the sun, went swimming at Waterbom Jakarta with my sister and dearest aunty. I wouldn’t say that I had a blast, because truthfully speaking I wasn’t. I was a bit disappointed with the water slides, which in reality was not much enticing as it is said in their websites. I spent almost hours by floating at wild river, sun tanning, and enjoying the weather. Well, it wasn’t that bad after all. At least, I had a slight fun and sun kisses. Ah, summer.

buckwheat pasta


Yesterday, my sister and I made pasta for lunch. Well, actually it was my sister who cooked, while I was busy taking pictures here and there. First to the fourth photos above are the ingredients my sister used and the fifth is veggie drink my sister and I been craved on. Anyway, I asked mother to buy me this buckwheat pasta spirals without knowing what buckwheat is, until recently I stumbled upon Tricia’s blog from eating is art. It was a total coincidence actually, and I thanked myself for being a food masochist, that I finally discovered such a great site like that. I was keenly reading up on her posts, when I came across one of her writing about buckwheat. She explained that buckwheat is actually not a grain, but a fruit seed akin to rhubarb. I didn’t really get it at first, but as I read it over, I knew that buckwheat contains good nutrients for human cardiovascular system, and may also contribute to blood sugar control. Sounds cool, oh yeah, absolutely it is. Eating healthy is so today, babes.

brasil tee shirt

Monday night, I ate out with my girlfriends. We chowed down on dim sums, broccoli, and crabmeat at Chicken Village. The food tasted so good, and I was totally delighted. My girlfriends and I gossiped about everyone else, laughed at each other’s silliness, and took lots of pictures as well. Ah, life must be great. As what’s been lyricized by Owl City in one of their song titled The Bird and The Worm: with friends like these well, who needs enemies?


P.S. The outfit above is my sister’s. She’s got the style and by that I adore her. I mean, when I end up always wearing shorts and favorite tee, she’ll successfully pull on anything stylish on her looks. I mostly come to her for advice about fashion thingy. Oh well, it might sounds ridiculous to her (and me), but I thank God for having her as my sister. Enough said. I can hear myself vomiting here. Ha.

had fun much, no?

I went out with my sister and joined with other friends from youth community in church to catch up on movie, which is Sorcerer’s Apprentice. It was a good movie I must say. I was so hooked by Balthazar’s charisma and strength of character. Oh well, I just love Nicholas Cage. He is a brilliant actor, I adore him more than words could describe. After movie, we moved to have some drinks. My sister’s treat that night. I had pina colada, and I loved it. I decided, if I could savor the taste of summer, then I would describe it as the taste of pina colada. We had a little chat with other friends before my sister and I split up and went to have a late dinner. We took lots of photos while we were waiting for the food to be served. Oh anyway, we were the last customers at that night. No wonder because it was Thursday and it was 10 pm already.
