Hectic

Taken from today's Sunday Secret,


I couldn't have be more agree with you,dear stranger

It's been a while,yes it's been a while!
I am so totally into Final Year Project mode now,and reading so many journals make my my creativity level falls freely until below zero point
I really really need help

"South America ! It's like America, but South"


Anybody cries at Pixar's movie "UP" ?
Who love this movie as much as I do?

Have you ever felt so bored ?


So bored like an old TV showing nothing but just a cheesy soap drama and silly commercials?
Recently,college seems so dull,Facebook becomes less interesting,even blogging is quite boring
I know i should be very,very much grateful for what i have
But I just wish my life would be a bit more exciting

Its Morning Elegance








Analog photography is not perfect,but it is so much better that the fake perfectness Photoshop offers


I am missing my entire whole family as we are getting close to Ramadhan
the way we always make time to gather at our grandparents house to break our fast together with so many different delicacies each family bring
Ah,the warmness :)
I suddenly think it will be so cool if i can write and draw with both of my hands so i started practicing yesterday by writing alphabets with my left hand
it was so crumbling but practice makes perfect,yes?

Anyway,all of this time i have been imagining what my wall should be like when i have my own room in my own apartment(or house,we never know) and over the years my decisions have been changed
from vintage wallpaper,magazine pages, to Polaroid pictures
but now i have the final decision








the coolest wall ever by Charlotte Mann
she drew using black marker on a white wall

P.S : I do not hate Adobe Photoshop though,i love both digital and analog (with a slight leaning towards analog hehe)

Bangerang !

I've been hooked by "Hook"
It may be released quite a long time a go (ehm,1991 to be exact) and yes,it is so true that 2 and half hours movie is way too long for any kid's attention span
but 5 nominations on Oscar ?
you got it,Mr.Spielberg !
I totally fall for its food fight scene



Oh those wonderful colorful food of Neverland
This makes kinda wish i'm excel at baking so i could make food just like these ...





And throw them exactly at other people's faces


this movie is one of the rare cases where I adore the villain
James Hook is not evil,as Peter's daughter quoted,he just had some serious mother issues
and who doesn't love Smee and all of his pirates?

I left my heart there




I just come home from 5 days trip from Bangkok and I haven't get over it at all
I just fell in love

We stayed at a little inn there
They serve breakfast awfully early
They combine pancake and pineapples which was weird
Their hot water bath was extremely hot and can not be any warmer
They have no elevator so we have to climb the stairs to the 3rd floor every now and then
HBO and Star World were the only watchable channel on the TV
They have that weird mosquito net all around the bed


I love everything about it :-)

P.S : I love my Lomo too

Blowing Kisses for the Hungers



i just found out tonight about this delightful non-profit organization called Free Rice
They give you sets of questions with multiple choice answers
you play it,and every time your answer is correct you donate 10 grains of rice through UN to fight hunger
10 grains may seems not that much,but with a thousand more people playing at the same time with you,it can total up for quite a number
at first i don't really believe that we can donate rice that easily,so i read through the FAQ
they are pretty impressive,since they began at 2007 until today they already donated 66,266,553,170 grains of rice
Click here to start playing

The questions come in many various subjects like English vocab and grammar,Chemistry, Math, Foreign Languange like French,German, and so many more
Each subjects have hundreds of questions divided into 70 levels based on its difficulty,so i guess you'll never run out of questions

Stop drowning in Facebook or Youtube for a while and play it for maybe 5-10 questions,that'll change a lot
Let's do something beautiful together today,shall we?

"I took the wrong turn and ended up in Michigan"


It's been ages since i've borrowed a book from the library
now,i'm borrowing one called "Monkey Brain Sushi",a collection of Japanese short stories from different authors
just like Carrie Bradshaw,i just love the smell of old books




It also feels like ages since i posted something here
nothing much to update
i seriously want to lose weight this time
and i should be starting doing something for my final year project
let's see,i feel somehow nauseated in my current blog,maybe that's the reason why i haven't been blogging as much as before
but i still do blogwalking twice as much as before
maybe i should make a new blog,for a fresh start

or maybe not

or maybe i'll wait until i become a little bit famous,then make a new blog

whichever way sounds ridiculously funny right now

oh yeah,i've been so into Japan lately
maybe because all those Gaki No Tsukai series my little brother gave me
or the fact that he'll be going there doing homestay in less than 2 weeks from now (damn you kid,i totally die of jealousy)
or it is because anything and anyone there looks a lot more artistic in photos than anything and anyone in any other nation could do
i really wish i could save enough money so next year after i finish college i'll be rewarding myself with a trip to the rising sun land

my bestfriend from elementary school will come visit in about 2 weeks,and my other bestfriend will come visit also at the end of May
oh and counting down to Bangkok trip at August for midterm break
isn't that just pure awesome?

Before science exists, it is possible for the Moon to be made of white cheese


I never consider myself a nerd, or a geek
simply because i never enjoy studying in whatever form
but sometimes i just found myself drowning in some weird topic for quite a long time
like this afternoon, i read all the articles i could found in Google about "Ida" fossil, the famous missing link that connect human with any other mammals in evolution chain (All hail Darwin), on the internet for about 30 minutes in the middle of my study for tomorrow exam
i found it interesting and amusing and it really distract me from studying
i guess i'm gonna browsing about it more tonight
(It's huge,guys! Google even make its logo looks like the fossil at May 20th and People Magazine considers it to be on its cover, making it the first non alive creature to be on the cover!
It will be on the school text books for the next 100 years!
I'm over excited,i think i need help,no ?!)

or when people said "It's possible,you can do it"
my inner brain automatically thing how ironic that is because most people don't know that Possibility is 3 times nearer to the Impossible rather than to Certainty, based on Degree of Belief in Expert System
see ? See?
i blabber about weird topic
i guess sometimes i'm a little nerd

Two more final exams and i'll be coming home at Saturday
Just a short holiday,only for 2 weeks, and most of the times i'll be doing short course in PHP languange for the preparation of my final year project
damn i'm old

"It's not falsified that I found God"


Hello blog,

it's been a while,and i just dropping by just to prove i am not a lazy ass person to write on my own blog.

Spectacular things happened in such a short time and nearly gave me a heart attack

1. Final exams
Tick tock tick tock
4 more days to the first day of exam
yet,nothing in my brain

2. Final Year Project
i'll be doing doing FYP at November and apparently i have to choose the title,the supervisor lecturer and other stuff from now,while i am still in disbelief daze that i already in final year of college

3.There is something happened this morning at my house that i chose not to talk about
I've got goose bump and unexplainable headache every time i remember it
I am just really really thanking God that all of us is fine

That's way too many stress in just one post and i think everyone agree i need a sleep,yes?
Pray with me so i can do the best in all the things i need to do
Amin :)

Poscards from far away

after i opened the pack of watercolor yesterday,surprisingly i can't get enough of them
i made two postcards for my friends,one named Tata,she's my junior high school best friend and currently live in Indonesia,and another one named Mutia,she's both my junior high school and high school friend currently live in South Korea
i made a portrait of them from their Facebook profile picture and the picture turn out -not surprisingly- sucked and did not look like them at all
sorry,i am baaaad for drawing real people
i'll post it on Tuesday,because tomorrow is my day off college


anybody want one too?



Mu,Ta,i hope you like it,and if you don't,please don't throw it away
just put it in the deepest corner of your drawer should be fine :)

oh,also i plan to make one for my baby sister for her birthday at April 23th

i am imagining God says this to me,"Ehm,girl,do you know what else you could make with your own hand and due at April 23th too? YOUR HUMAN COMPUTER INTERACTION ASSIGNMENT! so stop fooling around making painting and get your lazy-ass in front of your laptop and start making that report!"
although i know that God is gentle and kind so He won't said anything cruel like that,but yeah,He has a point
i am such a lazy-ass

Random Fact Number 8


Even if it means taking longer time to load


It's such a cool breeze joy that i'll be able to write again in my blog
these past weeks were such a mess and overwhelmed
i have two exams and one labtest in one week while i've been working on my very serious Software Engineering Project
i am creating a web page that is due next Friday
yeah,right

my laptop is (finally) being reformatted,after two and a half year living a healthy life
some random viruses happened and it ate my explorer
it was such a mess,i am very very grateful i have such talented friends who care to help me fixing my laptop
i really am a hopeless IT students
and now,i am using a brand new laptop (well at least,internally) and all my previous installed programs were now gone
it will take a while to download and install the one by one
*sigh
i don't know about anyone else,but i am getting annoyed by all the useless quiz in Facebook like "What kind of shoes are you?" or "How will you die?" because seriously, nobody cares whether you are a boot or a high heels or you'll die because of eating too many hotdogs,that quizzes really are trashing my News Feed
people desperately need to have something better to do
seriously

i am missing my mother,so i intentionally buy Jasmine body mist by The Body Shop because it is her perfume
now i smell like her :)

Seatmate

Another reason why i love to have a flight alone is the element of surprise of what kind of people who will be my seatmate
In a two hours flight,i will make new friends and their stories will be forever cherished in my brain
over these years where i've been in a flight alone i've :
met a businessman who gave me his card
had a serious career talk witha couple of business partner in IT
been given Hershey chocolate Kisses by a chocoholic woman
heard the story of wonderful Amsterdam from a grandmother who visit her child and grandchildren there every year
been given two pieces of cake by that grandmother
got a "You have a wonderful name"-compliment by a woman who peeped into my immigration form when i was filled in that form
chatted with a couple of husband and wife who want to have a baby so they do check up in KL
and many others that i remember blurry

Last night,i sat beside a monk
a real monk with a bald head and his caramel colored cloak
I was so mesmerized because the times i saw monk were only on television,Kungfu movie,magazines,and pictures
i would never thought i will see one,only 3 cm away from me
and he ordered a vegetarian food ! oh my god,he is totally a real monk
when the plane landed on the airport,i went to the ladies room first before hitting the immigration check
and he was there
no,he was a she
the monk was a woman
with bald head and caramel colored cloak

how life is full of surprises

Quickie Express

just a quick update since now i'm home

1.My brother got a chicken pox and he's now staying at the hospital and we,all his sisters,are not allowed to see him by our parents since we all haven't got any chicken pox before and we are not immune

2.My mother is already immune,so she stayed at the hospital with my brother all the time,which means i haven't seen her since i landed last night

3.And she brings my Jakarta's cell number,so here i am,lost without cell phone

4.My cat is dead. Our cat is dead,people.
I can't believe no one told me earlier,i'm in deep grieve

5.The new SLR camera apparently is Nikon D40,i'm still new to DSLR and definitely need a tutorial








here are just random things around my house

6.Also in hand are my very first love Colorsplash camera and my friend's SMENA camera,i kinda confused which one should i use

7.Election Campaign is already started in Jakarta,everywhere i look in the city,there always a picture of legislative candidate with corny slogan and awkward pose

8.I kinda miss my friends back there (hi guys,what are you doing this midterm break back there ? please make sure don't go to Genting Highland without me! )

9.Thanks to Davin,I am a fan of Julian Smith right now
He's a freelance filmmaker and funny as hell

Okay,that's pretty much all

anyone who knows and come across this blog post,just please please give me comments
i'm in desperate
thanks :)
Have a nice spring break everybody

recent obsession/mastering Thriller Dance! that's the coolest dance ever made!

i'm in love with turquoise and light pink,i really think all pool should be dyed pink


I'm having quiz this Tuesday and it's about new programming language called CLIPS in Expert System Class
it's not as hard as C++,but because i always dozed off on its tutorial classes (or googling for Indonesian TV-Star Gunawan,because one of my classmate looks like him and i want to take a close look between them two) i successfully am falling behind everybody else
so today i start over,learn from the beginning of tutorial 1,reading every line from the textbook
or so the plan

3 minutes to go

okay i have 3 minutes before 9 pm to finish this post
what'll happen at 9?
glad you asked,i have to study 10 chapters for tomorrow quiz

first of all,really,i've been meaning so hard to stop this Mraz craze and decided to stop talking about him in every post i made
but when i saw this,every cells in my body told me to deliver this to you all,who watch him live in concert this past month :




oh my god he said thank you very much in my mother's languange!
quoting his line "..here in Jakarta" clearly implies that he was writing that in a hotel room somewhere in Jakarta
looking at the picture,do you know what hotel room that is?
i have completely no clue,Hilton ? Mulia? or Ritz?

my bag has arrived and thank god it has because my current college bag(that means a bag that i always bring to classes) is already torn in so many places
College becomes more hectic with quiz and midterm tests and assignments and i hate every bit of it because they made me realize how stupid and unfit I am for this major
i hate every single line of code i had to type in programming classes
I found this line in one of my lecture notes : Programming was not a discipline, more like a hobby or “art form”
oh give me a break
i'm sorry but my hobby is writing nonsense with good grammar or taking sunlight flares pictures while my "art forms" are watercolor drawing and number 3 pencil doodling
if only i could make a living out of it :(
A single hand can do a hell lot more that the latest computer

oh wait,what time is it?
damn 9.15
