Online all the time: Youth & New Media. The impact of social networking and the online world on Indonesian culture

2010-11-08T04:38:00.000-08:00

_____________________________________________________________________________________

It was raining last weekend and a friend of mine felt totally disappointed canceling her picnic plan with her girlfriends, and she wanted everybody know about it so she posted her sad feeling on Twitter and waited for a couple of minutes to see if anybody tweeted her back with a response. Rain stopped sometime later but she already engaged on her laptop and forgetting her plan.

I went to a party last night and snapped a lot of pictures and the only thing that lingers in my mind since last night is “I could not wait to upload them all to Facebook and tag everybody in it!” I even curious to see other pictures my friends will upload and see if anybody tagged me.

All those experiences above is no longer new to young people in Indonesia, especially those who fortunate enough to have that super-cool-I-can-be-online-anytime-anywhere gadget. Honestly I even cannot remember how do we live before Facebook or Twitter. Cyber world has gained tremendous development over the years and I feel both proud and concerned about it.

Online world sure bring a lot of positive impacts for young people. The latest hot site for young people is Indonesian Unite, which was born as a result for our fight over bombing action some time ago. In such a short time Indonesian Unite successfully gain a lot of supports from Indonesian people, both youth and adult people. I personally feel very proud for this because it shows how many people still care for this country.
On the other hand, youth’s addiction over the online world can be very negative if only they could not control it. Remember how many hours had you spend outside doing real world action five years ago and compare them with today.I am (and majority of other college students are) constantly losing my important sleeping hours doing nothing important in front of my notebook.It is no longer a secret that young people spend their time mostly on Internet, no wonder everything is now so Facebook and Twitter worthy. I secretly afraid that our cultures will slowly vanish as the Internet is rapidly growing.
Or maybe that is just my imagination.
Maybe I should post it on Twitter.

Hello Sunshine

2010-03-21T10:35:00.000-07:00

Let's lay on the grass and have a sandwich roll together
Hello hi hello
A very bad blogger has come back after quite a while (not that anybody cares anyway,lol)
I hate that most of my last posts talked about my whining on doing my final project or internship, so I just want to forget it just for a while

Happy Sunday anyone!
when it comes to Sunday,that means it's time for my weekly Sunday Secret
what's your favourite secret?

Anyway,I have several addiction into some series like Chuck, How I Met Your Mother, and the Big Bang Theory
and my newest obsession is : Glee!
and Dianna Agron is my new girl crush

taken from her Tumblr

I know she's gorgeous and poised,but what made I am a fan is that she is gorgeous and poised and art lover and love photography and her blog is awesome

anyway,what's up with you? what's up with the world?

Sing Soft Kitty for me

I'm sick
It sucks

I forgot how lonely it was to be in bed while all of your friends go to school

Oh god, i've been neglecting this blog for how long ? two - three months ?
I am in a hopeless worrisome stage in my college life
Final Year Project, of course, and I've been struggling to find an internship
I've been very unproductive these couple of months,no photos, even drawings
so here are some fake Polaroids from different times in my life

oh,I have finished Dan Brown's latest book, The Lost Symbol, and this funny cute amazing comic journal book French Milk by Lucy Knisley

It has been raining all day long

2009-11-17T23:07:00.001-08:00

Final Year Projects!
Midterm exams!
Three major assignments projects!
Raining cats and dogs!

Massive mess!

Hectic

2009-10-31T23:40:00.000-07:00

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

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

*Watercolor on paper

Have you ever felt so bored ?

2009-08-23T11:00:00.000-07:00

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

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 !

2009-08-14T23:24:00.001-07:00

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

2009-08-06T00:02:00.001-07:00

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

2009-07-17T09:17:00.000-07:00

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"

2009-06-28T08:37:00.000-07:00

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?

2009-05-24T05:10:00.000-07:00

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"

2009-05-13T10:30:00.000-07:00

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 :)

I'VE BEEN FEATURED!

2009-04-30T21:57:00.000-07:00

This is the first day of May and it's Labor Day Holiday
when i woke up i got a nice surprise
i've been featured as Lomonesia Wall of the Month!
Lomonesia is official Lomography Society in Indonesia,by the way
yay :-)

Poscards from far away

2009-04-19T01:08:00.000-07:00

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

2009-04-06T11:47:00.001-07:00

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

2009-03-29T23:40:00.000-07:00

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

2009-03-20T22:31:00.000-07:00

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
and hey question of the day : How can I create bokeh in D40?
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

Sunlight Installation for you and me

2009-03-18T20:33:00.001-07:00

Sunlight on poppies and plane flight on Friday
Bright yellow jacket and sweet goofy kitten
Warm tea peppermint pour up with scone
These are a few of my favorite things

-Own version of "Favorite Things" in Sounds of Music

rough night
only two hours of sleeping
early breakfast
skipping lunch
drinking coffee
day full of classes
sleepy as hell,dizzy as hell,hungry as hell

i never felt this high before

and yet i still have to do laundry,return 3 super heavy books to the library
and oh,packing

2009-03-18T08:58:00.000-07:00

so stop acting so smart,

who/what inspires you/random people on the street,random lines on movies and songs
what is your dream occupation/freelance artist,writer,art director,editor in chief
what is your biggest dream/the ones i keep praying to God 5 times a day,He knows exactly what are they
what clothes do you prefer/the good ones,the flattering ones
what do you do when you're alone/writing,drawing,reading blogs
what are you doing right now/study,i guess
people you want to meet/for now? people who can help me pursue my career,although people back home are important to meet also
recent obsession/mastering Thriller Dance! that's the coolest dance ever made!
who are you? Anindita Arianti Putri

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
i just had lunch about 2 hours ago and now i already craving something to chew
oh damn you never-satisfied-appetite!
maybe i'll go make Nutrijell jelly first and then study
please

3 minutes to go

2009-03-12T05:55:00.000-07:00

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

Older Lover Undercover

2009-03-09T09:49:00.000-07:00

Life's been such a roller coaster lately
after an amazing weekend night and great concert,Cinderella had to wake up to the reality that she is still a maid
not that i'm a Cinderella or anything (also there was no such thing as concert in her era,considering the fact that the only music was only from her singing along with a bunch of birds and mice),it's just an analogy
but despite being a maid,i woke up facing assignments and midterms exams,or in other word,the real world
but i've started swimming again,and this time,in the morning
and it feels nice
also the fact that i'm waiting for one bag and two clothes to arrive is nice also :)
online shopping is such a money-robbing whore and i wonder why we addicted to it lately
midterm break holiday that will be coming in 10 days is nice also
my little brother gave an offline message on msn yesterday,giving me a link to an online comic,which is a nice story
and there is a conversation between a wife and her photographer husband like this :

Wife : why are you so set on using film ? you can't retake shots on film
Husband : Hmm ? One of the joy of taking pictures is not knowing exactly what kind of photography you're taking
but then you put it in some developing solution and gradually you'll be able to see the pictures
Of course you'll make mistakes too but sometimes you come across something good
something better that you expected

aah,so nice knowing i have one other reason to keep loving films
but the Wednesday's exam is not so nice actually
guess what,too many nice things without even a single suck-ness is a plain boring,yes? *giggle
okay off to bed

oh oh
you know what else is super nice?

my new desktop background!

I know you're fond of hat ,Mr.Mraz(or at least that what you've written on my original T-shirt of yours)but your messy hair definitely need to be photographed a little bit more often
oh what the heck,yes i am a fangirl

P.S : I just find out that Michael Jackson will do a comeback tour! I know you'll raise your eyebrows,but come on,who doesn't love the fenomenal "Black or White" with people faces keep changing in the video clip? or, or Thriller? Oh Gosh,Thriller!
I do love it,a hell lot

I LOVE YOU TO BITS

2009-03-05T08:51:00.000-08:00

before i start this post,let's make it clear : i am not a fangirl type
i don't scream over a hot celebrity,i never make a collection of any photos or posters,even right-click-save-image-as of any guy,i don't even love the sensationally hot Edward Cullen
in short,i have the right amount of love when i am a fan of someone

but this one is different
i've been waiting for him over years,feel like forever
every word that he sang and every little moves he made created a huge heartbeat for me
Jason Mraz is-hands down-the most inspiring man that i've ever known,and yes,i love him to bits

this video of last night concert is by far the closest to him on Youtube(don't ask how many videos i've watched,you'll get hurt) and i'm quite impressed of how not-really-shaky this video is,considering she (or he) was that close to Jason Mraz,if that were me,i'll be dead in maybe after half the song
just watch it,please,that video is quite short but i really really adore the way he dances
just wait a couple more days,maybe a lot of people will upload better videos of the concert,i hope

i've never been to a lot of concert before
last time i went to concert was Maroon 5 in Singapore
from that moment i walked out Singapore Indoor Stadium,back home,during classes,over chatting on MSN,up until today,i can still blabbering with excitement how hot Adam Levine is without bored
but when Jason Mraz took his last bow and disappeared,i felt something weird and new, a lot different from after Maroon 5 concert
i feel deeply sad,and up until now,i prefer to not talking about how that concert was because i'll feel incredibly mellow when i realized my years of waiting vanished on one and a half hours concert
during that concert i felt hypnotized and yes,lots of screaming,singing,and dancing
but the moment he played that particular favorite song of mine,i just sat there,gasping quietly,not screaming,not even singing
i lied to my friends beside me that my throat was hurt so i couldn't scream anymore,buy really,i was trying hard to stop tears from falling
yes yes,i was about to cry,damn you,Jason

Ecca and I bought the original (please note,original,guys) T-shirts of him and please don't ask how much it cost
in short,with that amount of money,you can buy Zara or Topshop clothes,but please,we two are the biggest fan of him so yeah,we spent money on that T-shirt
maybe later i could post a photo of it

Oh Jason
you sing me,dance me,steal me
badly
please do it again :(

by the way,out of topic,i just want to tell you that i've been doing a very serious group task on Software Engineering subject
my group leader already assigned me some tasks and i was doing all of them just fine,except the one called Quality Assurance Plan
i googled it but the results were quite confusing,all different from another,and for days i've been moaning to everybody close to me of how hard the QAP is
tomorrow is submission day,and i could not moan any longer,so i decide to write anything that sound sensible for that QAP part,just using my own words
when i opened the project file i am shocked,really shocked
i've done the QAP
and i forgot when i did it,but it happened
so when i moaned to people of my assignment,i actually already finished it
when i desperately googled it,opened gazillion tabs on Firefox searching for answers for hours,i actually already done it
confusing,eh?
i wonder why my brain skip so much

Just

2009-03-03T08:19:00.000-08:00

the one gloomy post before this,it's over
somehow,i made peace,i'm coming home for midterm break
Jason Mraz concert for tomorrow,and getting home for March 20
and i don't feel even a tiny bit of excitement
oh,how dear all five assignments,i curse you

it's getting cold each day since it's always raining cats and dogs
while cold weather means sleeping's getting more comfortable,i hate the fact that i turn to skip class when i couldn't get myself out of bed

you know what else i hate?
someone copied my blogging style

home alone

2009-02-27T03:35:00.000-08:00

it's Friday (almost) night and i'm home alone
both of my housemates went out of town and here i am,bored,with a lot of assignments to do,due next week
well,i figure myself will be sitting in the dining room in front of my laptop writing nonsense about Software Engineering tomorrow all afternoon
but that's tomorrow,tonight i plan on relaxing
but,chatting with my bestfriend who keep complaining about his assignment being insulted by his lecturer and how annoying his girlfriend is not quite relaxing enough for me so i explore what is inside my hard disk,hoping to find something worth watching

but unfortunately,i watched almost all of them
i said almost,because there is Gossip Girl Season 2 that was accidentally copied when i borrowed my friend's hard disk to copy some movies
i do not watch Gossip Girl,and i really can't tell the reason,but i just don't
but boredom creeps me out so i watched them,yeah straight to season 2,with no knowledge at all of what happened in season 1
yeah,i think it was okay,a lot going on,many conflicts,but personally Chuck and Blair is the only reason i bear to watch
meanwhile,i am missing Marshall and Vinnie Chase so much,please the new season come,please please
i also am missing the times from about 2 years ago,when we rule Multiply (when it still can download songs of course),when going out means two or three cars full with a bunch of us,and when we played Facebook way way before it becomes a hit,our friends were below 100,and we were always bombing away on Pirates games
ah-
happy weekend everyone,wish me have a good one

Not so legen - wait for it- dary

2009-02-23T02:22:00.000-08:00

it's 6:22 pm here and it was raining and misting all afternoon
which is quite nice actually
Weekend is nice,as always,going out with closest friends,but i think anything i do at weekend will always be nice considering the weekdays i have been through
i am finishing Entourage season 5 last night,and feel quite sad to say goodbye to the heartthrob Vinnie Chase,or is there a season 6,anyone know?
I have been planning to study AI today since i'll have quiz tomorrow but look what i do now
the internet had been down this afternoon,and it was clearly a sign to study my lecture notes,but no,i chose Wedding Dash
and now,the sun is getting ready to set,and i haven't study a single sentence
damn

i have been browsing scholarship to Europe,but none of it quite applicable
ha ha,i hate how obvious i hate my major,but yes,please get me out of here
you may call me crazy,but i actually already imagine how my apartment will be look like,who are my flatmates,what coat i'll be wearing for work,which restaurant i'll be crashing into for dinner,what cookies i will be learn to bake from my up-floor neighbor girl,and oh my god,even now i call myself crazy
i hope to graduate next year and i am crossing finger of what i'll be doing afterward
Ahh shoot,i forgot i have Cisco course at 8 pm today
i think i'll take a shower now
excuse me for this moody post,but in my defense :this is my first day of period
i am missing everybody and would love to come home for midterm break,but look at that tons of project,they won't allow me to go anywhere
i hate it when i have no picture to put into a post,but i am running out of pictures because i still don't have any digicam
(Dad,seriously,read how desperate i am)

P.S : I just found out that Slumdog Millionaire won EIGHT of that golden little man,including best picture ! I can't believe that,well it's no surprise,that movie is brilliant

P.S.S : The quiz i mentioned before,will cover the first 3 chapters of the subject. I've been studying chapter 1 for about 45 minutes,memorizing everything while thinking "It's funny how I don't remember all of these things being taught in class, i must be very distracted"
after i finish studying that chapter,i found out it was chapter 11 that i've been studying,not 1
...crap
Smart move,always a (heaps) step ahead!

Dream's Diner

2009-02-19T06:47:00.000-08:00

what a busy hell of a week
morning class every single day,going home after it's almost dark,exhausted
watch a little bit of Entourage or anything else worth watching and then start worrying about projects
yeah,like the subject itself is not difficult enough,all of my lecturers gave us assignments and projects
geez
okay enough about the whining up

last night i had a very fun chat with my very good friend from high school
and i don't know how it started but we plan to make a restaurant in the future
Diner like,baby,just like vintage Americans do
i am so damn bored with all the cafes or restaurant that giving away their atmosphere for unstable teenagers that dressed way too old for them just to have a cup of coffee,free wi-fi connection,and the cute guy's number next table
no,i want some real diner with casual atmosphere, a counter, and late operating hours
a place where some random people will randomly think "Hey I'll go to Donkey's Diner to grab some breakfast,wanna come along?" and just take their car key and roll along
no need some fancy smancy saturday night clothing,it is a cozy place for you to eat and read your paper
and then he ordered some real nice homemade food,be served by some nice friendly waiter,and after a couple of times going to our diner,started to get to know other loyal customer,say hi to each other, and have his food served for him before he even ordered,because the waiter is already know what he is going to order

damn what a wish
but we talked pretty serious though,we already decided about the place and the menu
too bad we have zero money LOL
that Donkey's name is not serious also,we kind of bad on choosing name
any suggestion ?
gonna get you free waffles if your suggestion is chosen !

uh by the way,i watched "Yes Man" like what,two months ago and when i saw that movie,there was a scene where Zooey wore a blue coat with red trim and i suddenly though "Oh gosh,i want that coat,like rite now!"
and now,here i am,still not over this coat,desperately looking for a decent picture of it
i search it on Yes Man imdb pictures,trailer,but it seems like that scene with the gorgeous coat is not so important to get into the trailer
so,tonight I google "Zooey Yes Man blue red coat" and i'm quite surprised that this coat has a lot of fans too,it has been talked on some forums and they still haven't figured it out who design that coat
that Zooey girl is sure something,eh?

i want one right now

Weekend Hangover

2009-02-16T00:01:00.000-08:00

Valentine's Day
Saturday Night
Going out = Worst Idea

since Valentine's day fell at this very Saturday,imagine the traffic
but anyway,i had a great weekend going to the movie,karaoke and ausi's private birthday dinner these past two days
but Monday always come
actually i don't have class at monday so i thought i will be just at home,rest,prepare for the next weekdays classes ahead
but no,alas,i went to college building to interview some important people at some important faculty about my super important project
yeah,we've been given a big project at Software Engineering class,so big that for group who do the best,their project will be used for this campus
and if my team's project is chosen to be used,i think i have to do a deal
they have to pay us
pay us numbers big enough to afford my getaway to Europe,or America,or just simply Tokyo,my tuition fee until i graduate,and my future three kids into a well-known private school

Pfft.dream

i am not ready to face the class again after a great weekend
but i guess i have to do it anyway

Take me,melt me,throw me to the floor

2009-02-11T03:38:00.001-08:00

But I,I couldn't want you more

Dear KM,
you are just too beautiful to be true
i can't stand the heat and the dazzle from you
i can't stop grinning seeing your face so everything that you say or anything else around is becoming blur
so i stop watching your newest drama at episode 2,and staring at this picture of yours instead

okay,
my finger was stung by a hot pan while i was cooking for lunch today,and yeah it is so freaking damn hurt (and it wasn't really cooking anyway)
it's just one finger,and i just have the other healthy nine fingers,but when i was shampooing my hair at the shower,or when typing this thing,boy i miss that pointer finger
get well soon kiddo
life is so-so nowadays and i kinda miss everybody
yesterday i found an article said 9-years-old Singaporean kids is making an application for iPhone,called the "Doodle Kids" and it is now one of the most downloaded item for Apple
that games let you draw with your finger and when you shake your phone,it will erase all of it
that kid already mastered 6 programming languages,holy crap six
when i told this stuff to my classmates this morning,they were all like gasping and search that article over in the internet
so yeah,he is 9 years old,master of 6 programming languages
and I,well,20,master of ...

well,i don't really like the title Master anyway

1.15 am

2009-02-08T09:15:00.000-08:00

ah damn i am hungry
i should've stop skipping dinner,but really i didn't do it on purpose
just like any other day,i managed to get lunch at 5-6 pm every day,then i thought i won't be hungry again for dinner,and get to bed early
or so the plan
the real thing is i stuck in front of the laptop watching some random movies until it past midnight and my plan to sleep early was blown away to the next stratosphere
and i am hungry
i am too lazy to cook rice,and i can't eat instant noodles since i had one for lunch today,but honestly,isn't it too late to eat something heavy like that?
apples or oranges can't solve this problem,and i don't have any bread
and my jar of cookies is empty
argh what do i do?
i wish i had some of these,with tartar sauce

ah i love tartar sauce
maybe i'll just take a shower and sleep

...
or continue watching this cheesy movie
argh why in the world i have this random daily habit?

It is more lovable because it requires work

2009-02-05T06:56:00.000-08:00

i always fall in love with the wrong person or thing
i just can't help it
i've been falling in love with analog photography (which is much more troublesome than just snap a digital) and recently i fall for instant photography

their adorable color and amazing dreaminess make me fall,hard
any Polaroid or Cheki camera definitely add up my wishlist
it is perfect when used under the sunshine,such cozy color,and i heart any form of sunlight leak
another thing is,i always fall in love with the second guy in any drama or movies
i don't know why,but for me, most second guy is more handsome and much nicer than the main guy and if i were the heroine,i will definitely fall for him
and ruin the scenario
oh well,i just can't help it

P.S. : Happy birthday for my little brother,which is not quite little,considering he is twice as big as me.I wish you well and off to Japan soon :)

*sigh

2009-02-02T09:45:00.000-08:00

college is starting tomorrow
this semester i am taking 6 subjects and most of them are my major subjects
which is undoubtedly will turn out very difficult and i am now officially feeling so so scared
oh yeah,i hate being pessimist
*scribble scribble*

hey,i think my major is not that hard
in fact i think i'll do great this semester and achieve very high GPA
...
Duh!

it didn't turn out very optimistic either
oh god,i am not ready to face classes
maybe i will,if i have breakfast like she has every morning

do check her breakfast blog,if she were a guy i swear i'll marry her
while she is baking scone or eating greek yoghurt with fruits tomorrow morning,i am only gonna be munching on chocolate chip cookies which i specially buy tonight for this week breakfast
what a life
okay,off to bed

Lets see

2009-01-31T08:00:00.000-08:00

Hello,you
i am here trying to call you whenever i get the chance
but there is no sign of you
but you know,it's not really your fault
because i haven't put in some coin yet
and i know i will not do it, soon
so here i am just hanging in the end of the line,where there is not even a line
so stupid
damn,people behind me are lining up to use this phone
i guess my time is up
i am gonna do the same thing again
i will go out,stand in the very back of the line,wait until my turn again
and i hope when that happens,i am ready to put in a golden coin

lets take a picture together,because photos tell the future

P.S : i'm leaving home for college tomorrow morning. unless it will be somewhere in Paris or Amsterdam,i don't think that's something to cheered about

Kyouhei and Sunako couldn't be anymore cuter

2009-01-29T05:44:00.001-08:00

Oh how fun a childhood is
I don't want to grow up,Mommy

it's Friday afternoon and my period stomachache is killing me like crazy so i can't get out of bed,nor home
it's kinda okay since i love tv and internet very much
there's a new reality show series on Discovery which i love to watch,called Jon & Kate Plus 8
there's this parent,Jon and Kate,which has a 6 years old twin,and 2 years old sixtuplets
their names are Cara,Madelyn,Aaden,Joel,Collin,Hannah,Alexis,and Leah (i remember their names! fuck i'm addicted!)
it's fun watching how cute they are and how stressed their parents are because they're all like talking and laughing and screaming and crying at the same time
it's like watching Cheaper by the Dozen,but it's real,and they are all babies,apart from the twins
they showed at 10 am back to back in Discovery T&L,and then at 11.30 pm and 3 pm at Discover H&H,all different episode,so it means i watched 4 every day
and then,5 pm Slam Dunk,as usual
college is starting soon and i'm really not ready to accept that fact

P.S. : Cross processing is a success this time yay

it takes a long time to grow an old friend

2009-01-20T01:19:00.000-08:00

Lilly Leery: What's a soul mate?
Dawson: It's uh... Well, it's like a best friend, but more. It's the one person in the world that knows you better than anyone else. It's someone who makes you a better person. Actually, they don't make you a better person, you do that yourself because they inspire you. A soul mate is someone who you carry with you forever. It's the one person who knew you and accepted you and believed in you before anyone else did or when no one else would. And no matter what happens, you'll always love them. Nothing can ever change that. Make sense?

Sing me,Dance me,Steal me

2009-01-18T01:43:00.000-08:00

yesterday Ecca told me that our generous friend who decided to stay on Malaysia for this holiday,Thalita, already bought us tickets for Jason Mraz concert !
Thanks a lot Ciduulii darling for queuing at 10 AM in the morning to get the ticket,you know row B is great enough (and thanks for washing my towel,i swear i will never never mock you again,i,erm, hope)
YIHAAA
we've been waiting for him to come to Asia but he was like busy touring around Europe or Australia and the only time he went to Asia was just Singapore at SingFest last year
but this March this heartthrob guy will come to KL,Singapore,and even Jakarta
i am so so excited
This is Sunday afternoon and i don't really have much to do-beside watching American Idol season 8,hey do you know that there's a new 4th judge for the show?- so i do the doodling of my ticket which i just imagine to be,i even haven't seen my ticket!
it came out so small,so click it for larger view if you care
oh god this is so exciting

P.S :oh damn i just realized i made the year wrong on the ticket,just forget it
i know you didn't notice it at the first place too,did you? hehehe

Banana Split Blizzards

2009-01-15T08:33:00.000-08:00

i spent the entire afternoon catching up with my high school bestie at lunch and after-lunch dairy queen
we share a lot of stories,laugh,cup of ice cream,and baked potatoes until we don't know what to do anymore
holiday is so far so good,i'm having a mother-daughters event some day on the weekend
more best friends will be coming home to Jakarta next weekend and i can't wait yay
i read some of my college friends' blog and i notice they are kinda hate this holiday
which is confusing because i love it
i love home,i love all the family and friends back here,i love the cable tv,i even kinda love the weather right now
oh gosh,i haven't had the time to make postcards
i think i'll do it tomorrow since i have no plan
and i know you'll read this : MU! your card haven't arrived and i keep waiting,ugh it's so uncool
i keep imagining that this card drop from the postman bag and fly away in the wind,and end up in the wet Jakarta street,soaked in the rain
arghh

Yes Lady !

2009-01-13T08:02:00.000-08:00

inspired by this cool awesome lady who make a doodle of every single thing she purchased that day,i decided to make these kind of thing also
since i do not own a scanner,it is impossible for me to draw in the notebook and scan it later like she does,so i do not have much choice ; i draw it right in my computer
and it sucks you know
there are A LOT of things your hands can do while a mouse can not

anyway,in my second day of holiday i purchased two oversized blouse at Citos bazaar while waiting for a friend to pick me up
I watched Jim Carrey's "Yes Man" and ohmygod that movie rocks !

Allison: Are you stalking me?
Carl Allen: No, i would never do that.
Carl Allen: Oh by the way, the new furniture looks great from the yard.

i laugh and laugh and laugh a lot,i heart Zooey Deschanel in that movie
her quirky look and style definitely rules,oh how i wish to have bangs like that
Jakarta is raining a lot right now and cool breeze exists all day
tomorrow's plan is the beauty salon
it's been a while since my last hair mask
ahh it's great to be home :)

Fried cheese pancake

2009-01-09T02:58:00.000-08:00

I always want to spend my semester break going for a trip somewhere dazzling,but when i remembered the cheered laugh of closest people,or the spoiled little cat backyard,i think going home is not so bad after all

I just finished the second exam,which is ermm indescribable and i refuse to talk about it
my life's lately becoming more like a mess,i even had my dinner at 5 am this morning
something new and i can't even say its name,like a fried cheese pancake at the Indian restaurant,and it was so yummy
one exam's left and i'll be flying home in 3 days
i'm getting tired of countdown-ting that day;why is time getting so freaking slow
i already made tonsss of plans in Jakarta and oh i'm so can not wait
i plan on making postcards from unused photographs and sending it to people who want it
keen one?
i bet it's gonna be a lot of fun

The picture above is taken by my little sister,whom when i realized she is not so little anymore :)
I edited it a bit,i'm not good at letting photo stands as it own

S.O.S at 12.40 am

2009-01-04T08:20:00.000-08:00

i'm doomed
big times
first exam's coming up in 2 days
i was reading lecture notes this afternoon and the next thing i know i fell asleep unconsciously,damn it
when i started to study seriously tonight,my housemate kept bugging me to accompany him to buy some snacks at the convenience store
so yeah,at midnight,we both walked in the cold wind weather to the nearest store
and here i am,writing blog after purchasing mini potato chips,chewing gum,and a cup of watermelon
i am saving the chips for tomorrow because i'm sure it will go right down to my waistline if i eat them right now
for now,i think the watermelon is a safe bet
you know,i suddenly have an urgent wish : i wish i have a college life in Singapore
it'll be waaaaaaaay cooler

oh my god
i need to start studying as soon as possible
i'm death serious

wish

2009-01-02T04:16:00.000-08:00

I wish i live somewhere nice far away so i could send cool new year postcards to all my family and friends all across the world
I think that's the reason why Coldplay made a song called "Postcards from Far Away"

I'll be flying home in 10 days!
i went to Ikea yesterday and i stumbled upon its Sweden food store and i fell in love big time
imported food store like in Ikea or Marks & Spencer have its own magical charm that keep me wandering around in it,watching every pack of food in every shelf,reading each label
i end up buying a hazelnut cream biscuit and a pack of alphabet cookies
anyhow have you been to this place ? they serve good coffee and their toast is brilliant (they have surprisingly cool website too)
we come here often,a little too often
finals are coming in 5 days and i need (huge) help for studying
it's 8.36 pm and i haven't studied nor eaten anything
except the yummy ikea biscuit

Daddy

2008-12-25T01:54:00.000-08:00

you are the coolest
and the craziest
so why don't you let me buy another camera?
do you really think i'll survive just with my lomo and cellphone camera forever?
come on,i need a real toy

it's Christmas and looks like everybody's coming home celebrating it
so darn quiet here in this little town
my big sister will soon begin her internship and i feel a bit jealous
she will be working at Puncak in my next holiday and i feel so delighted to come along,for two days,perhaps
i really want to go there since like forever,and i'll be bothering her work for sure,hehee
taking picture of green mountain scenery,sunlight leak and fresh air sounds so wonderful
anyway,i think that some particular persons copying my style of writing blog sometimes and it gets on my nerves
maybe they adore me enough,like i adore some of other stranger-bloggers whom i got inspirations from
but still,well,it sucks,so find your own style please

class is over and we are free until new year
final exams coming up second week in January and i'll be flying home afterward
alone,just the way i like it
yippie

morning mist

2008-12-21T14:49:00.001-08:00

i love how film could make everything misty and dreamy
like a morning frost
ah,
how sunrise is ten times better that sunset

it's 6.50 am in the morning
everything's blurry and quiet outside the window
am waiting for the sun to come out,so i can switch off the lamp
and zzz
good night everybody

Newest addition to red-and-orange project

2008-12-21T14:45:00.000-08:00

if you're in the neighborhood,it'll be nice to stop by to our booth in CLC Concourse
alas,a good luck charm is nice enough

imagine you in this situation

2008-12-20T08:40:00.000-08:00

Number One

It's 5 pm and you've just finished classes since morning
you're tired as hell
you're so damn hungry as you skip lunch because you were busy copying notes for tomorrow's exam
you walk to the main gate,waiting for your bf to come drive you home
it's a good thing he drove his car today,because you don't bring enough money to take a taxi
and you're just too tired to wait for the next bus to come
you smile just imagining home,warm bath,and mac and cheese for dinner
and suddenly your cell beeps

From : :)

Honey i'm so so sorry, i don't think i could pick you up,there's emergency
so can you go home by yourself ? i know you could ! that's my baby!
i'll call later
xxx

Number two

Today is the deadline of the assignment
The lecturer said to submit yours to his room at most 2 pm this afternoon or else he'll throw it out to the trash bin
it's 1.30 pm and you nervously watch the heavy traffic at the road
you've been stuck in the same place for around 25 minutes
you know you can't make it
and to make it worse,the assignment is 30% of your total coursework

Been to one of those experiences?
Or have you done something similar,with money and time are the problem?
Well,it is obvious that you haven't heard about ...

The newest service in town !
We have so many Jack scattered around the corner,ready to take you to your destination in such a flash!
Using motorcycle,we guaranteed that it is fast and traffic-free !
And of course,it is so much cheaper than taking a taxi
Our Jack is a high quality selected driver that undoubtedly will give you a nice and professional service at the road

P.S : It's all fiction,it's for our Cyberpreneurship subject that required us to make a new business
Yeah,we're gonna be busy creating business plan,distributing brochures,and other stuff in the next few days,but hey, i bet it's gonna be a hell of fun

P.S.S : I designed the logo(which is the first picture,the second one is just something impulsive i created for fun in just 1.5 minutes) it's lame i know,but my group members keep telling me they liked it,so yeah,maybe a white-lie is not so bad after all :D

when nothing goes right

2008-12-17T08:08:00.000-08:00

i catch a cold
my head is spinning like some carousels in a clockwork carnival where Freddy worked
i sneeze 10 times in 5 seconds
i drink 49 vitamin C,and it does not help
the old template of my blog bored me to the next stratosphere so i kill it
kidding,i save it on the notepad,in case i miss it in the future
the cute doodles on my header is from this talented awesome person who makes a drawing of every single thing she purchased
that is really,really cool
i'd like to try that
okay here goes,i'll draw mineral water,and--
wait
i do not have a scanner
i still do not have a camera
crap

starbuck's hot hazelnut chocolate might be really nice right now
but for now i'll drink green tea instead,and go bury myself in bed
bad mood please please go away,come again some other day
some other day in the next century

i'll make a real header soon,if Mr.creativity care to come back to me
he leaked from my brain a while ago and has refused to come back last time i begged

oh well,how are you dear readers/reader/no one?
here have a look of my fancy treasures,i collected them on my last holiday

happy Thursday everyone

Movies on the Weekend

2008-12-06T12:03:00.000-08:00

I watched the booming movie,Twilight on friday night and my review are :
1.The main actor is extremely (dangerously) hot,yes now i know why the girls screaming for him
2.The cinema's caramel popcorn is the best dude,nothing compared to it,not even close
That's it
No compliment for the storyline though
When I first read the synopsis from the novel i thought it will be much more deep dark myth stories about vampire history,and their war with another vampire clan
but,when i watched it,it's a complete love story
yes,just like another teen movies

so,in the other night,i tried to watch a real good movie
I watched Paris Je t'aime. It got nominated in several awards so i thought to gave it a shot

I want to watch it mainly because of Natalie Portman on it
but,holy shit,she only appeared for just like,3 minutes !
The story is about many,many,different kinds of love stories that took place in Paris
Kinda like Love Actually movie,but with sooooo many more people in it
there's a love a story between a guy and a moslem lady (yes i feel a little joy seeing a mosque in Paris),and Natalie Portman and her blind boyfriend,Elijah Wood and his vampire girlfriend (yes yes vampire!),a father and a daughter,a two complete strangers,a couple of funny mimes (they're my favorite couple),a cheating husband that fell in love back again with his dying wife,and many more
But i don't really watch the ending because i,ehm,hard to say,fell asleep
so yeah,go figure out how the movie was

And then tonight,at 2 am i watch an Indonesian movie, Cinta Silver
i did it just for fun,knowing that Christian Sugiono played on it
but guess what ? it ended up becoming my favorite movie of the week

because of Christian's quote that i adore so so much (It is not really a quote,it is just a normal conversation but i think it's so beautiful that i categorized it as quote)
He said : lo tau nggak kenapa gue masih pake kamera FM2 gue padahal gue udah punya yang digital?
soalnya FM2 tuh pake film seluloid
nah di film itu ada lapisan peraknya yg gabisa digantiin sama digital
nah lapisan itu yg bikin foto gue lebih hidup,punya napas,punya nyawa
ya itu yang bikin gue nyaman.Lev
terserah orang mau bilang gue kuno,jatuh cinta sama lapisan perak
kalo ada yg nyaman pake digital ya terserah

cinta juga kayak begitu,Lev

DUH ! it's so nice of him talking about analog camera!
and just for curiosity,i (of course) googled for the ultimate Nikon FM2 that he mentioned before

perfect beauty :)

meet my figurines

2008-12-01T23:56:00.000-08:00

here's Max and Paris,the clubbers couple. They love music and dancing and always look trendy

the one wearing glasses is Poppy,the college student,and beside her is her yonger sister,Camille,a high school student who has an obsession of winter
It's Chianti,the coolest hippie in town

and here's Zali,the young art geek who recently got a job in Travel Channel

yes,they are busy with their own life,but at night they always come home to their purple wall to accompany my sleep

P.S : crappy image,i used cellphone. I create them as a result of my boredom in class,and i got a feeling that they will have some friends coming up ;)

weekend treat

2008-11-28T01:42:00.000-08:00

so,yeah,i've been tagged by acil and derisa to post 10 things that make me smile.why ten? why not seven ? that's my favorite number,oh i am such a rule breaker so i'll post seven anyway :

1.I was having breakfast at McD this morning and ordered Happy Meal breakfast set because i'm feeling for a pancake,and i got this toy,Julian from Madagascar the Movie. When you press the button behind,he sings "I like to move it,move it!"
What a sweetheart!

2.Bubble gum pink nail polish (the bright side when you're having period)

3.Giant-huge-very big awesome new billboard of Takuya Kimura for Gatsby at KL,too bad i didn't bring any camera today so i couldn't make his adorable face photographed. Such a hottie.

4.Newest Canon Powershot,for RM 699,is on the way (i hope)

5.I feel my jeans is getting bigger :D

6.Seeing comment on my blog post

7.I had lunch at Sushi King,and there was this young geek part-timer waiter who took our orders,and when i ordered my favorite ice cream of all time,this Chocolate Wafer Jumbo imported from Japan,he sliced the ice cream and arranged it in such a unique way,and he constantly peeked from the kitchen to see whether i like it or not ! it's kinda cute actually,LOL!

when i am in Jakarta,i used to buy this ice cream on Cosmo,the Japanese minimarket in town,but unfortunately Cosmo now stop selling Japanese imported stuff because there's a problem with the permit,i kinda sad actually :(

Honestly i am not able to post 10 because my mood is pretty ruined right now,and when i said pretty,i mean Natalie Portman pretty,and she's gorgeous,so yeah,i'm in real bad mood
okay,until everything's bright again,ciao :)

oh,do i have to tag people?
alright,i think almost my blogger friends have been tagged,so i am tagging Davin and Dilla
bring your 10 smile-maker on guys,cheers

ANAGRAM

2008-11-27T06:12:00.000-08:00

My friend Davin made an anagram of his name and i think it's pretty cool
so i am making one for my name
what do you think ?

P.S : It's 1.06 am and I should be sleeping now because i have to wake up at 6 am,but my very,very,dear bestfriend suddenly pop online after a long absence of appearance on my msn list,so yeah,we are chatting
the hell with 6 am

i've been tagged

2008-11-22T19:29:00.000-08:00

photo taken at Langkawi,August 2008

i've been tagged by Dilla,so here are my 10 (weird) facts :

1. I have an unhealthy obsession of a 4 seasons country. I already buy a coat,a beanie,and a knit scarf. All I need now is a pair of boots. I don't even know when the hell am i going to go for real.

2. I love sleeping in a car.Especially at night.So when we finally arrived home,I feel kinda angry : Why is there no traffic jam so i could sleep longer?

3. I MUST drink water right before i go to bed. But this is only happen at home,or anywhere else i feel like home. So if I live in a new place,it takes some time until I drink before sleep again.

4. Unlike Dilla,I love swimming,and I can swim with no one teached me.In fact,swimming is one of the sport i loved best (number two is badminton). You know what best about swimming ? No sweat

5. I am allergic to dust and cold weather. But those two diseases only appeared when I am home at my parents house. Even though how dusty my room is here,I never got sick. Any doctor want to help ?

6. I don't watch Gossip Girls,like any other girls.I don't know the reason,I just don't. Instead, I watch October Road and Grey's Anatomy.

7. I am obsessed with things easily. My parents hate this behavior. I once obsessed with the color purple. and attending high school my parents not used to approve.and lomo camera. and now Canon Powershot

8. I can't cook,and I don't cook. All i do now is heating my mother homemade meal and sometimes make simple dinner like soup,or fried rice,or chili chicken,or (gulp) instant noodles,or eating out. I don't know why I can't imagine me,chopping onions,garlic,vegetables,and anything else,preparing and cooking for 45 minutes,and then i will finish the food off for only 5 minutes. Damn it,what a waste of time ! Okay,somebody care to teach me cooking?

9. I love traveling on the plane alone. Check in alone. Wait for the boarding time,sipping latte in Starbucks alone. Sit in the window seat alone. Eat the plane food alone. Sweet !

and now,the last one, the bombshell :

10 . I hate my major. I choose it because I have no other choice of college. Oh wait,i DO have choice but someone didn't let me (Yes Daddy,I am talking to you). So here i am,working hard to like my subjects for a 3.5 gpa (it is quite good rite,considering how i hate this programming things?) and I don't know whether any company want to hire me because i am left brain dead and my programming ability is below zero. Oh my god,what am i gonna do?
Someone please hire me!
I can write articles !
I can take some lousy pictures too!
I can ...
crap,I am untalented.

.

2008-11-22T04:39:00.001-08:00

hey
little big full pollution bad-ass city
just want you to know i miss you so bad and i wanna be at you right now

And oh yeah,Dad
please make my late birthday gift Canon Powershot,the newest one,please
argh
lame

weekend oh

2008-11-20T21:23:00.000-08:00

weekend finally arrived and i am happy as hell
just not waking up early is enough to make my day brighter
i try to be a good kid so i didn't skip breakfast
chocolate milk (again) and ChipsMore may do the tricks

tonight we plan to the movies
but before that i made a promise with some friends to go swimming
hope it won't be raining later on
so,in this post i will be talking about swimsuit
i really want to buy a new one since my old one is too small right now
sooo i search over the internet and found a nice swimsuit
it is (dare i say) vintage swimsuit
my reasons to choose it ? well :

1. all vintage swimsuits are one piece,the kind i like
2. haven't i told you i adore anything vintage ?

anyhow,this is it my dream swimsuit

well,nice isn't it?
love the retro feel
i found it on ModCloth for 79.99 $
want some?
so let's imagine me wearing that swimsuit

HAHAHAHA
too bad my figure is not as nice as the model
maybe i should hit the gym first before i buy one

november rain

2008-11-19T04:33:00.000-08:00

i am aware that i said i quite enjoyed the rainy season in my last post
but today i kinda hate rain
okay,they suck

because of the rain,the basketball practical class is canceled again for two weeks in a row
i feel rather disappointed because i already wish to play basketball so bad
do more sport is one point in my new semester resolution (is there such a thing?)
so instead,me and some friend was making plan to go night swimming later on
the rain usually stop after 7 pm,so it will be nice to have a plunge later
but somehow,the rain was getting heavier
and it is soooo fucking freezing
my socks and shoes are wet
i'm cold
it sucks

anyhow,my vintage brown leather bag is arrived (well,i picked it up in the post office this afternoon with ausi) and i love it
this weekend may be its debut to come to the outside world as my belonging
ha !
but i don't think it will be quite a fun fun weekend,since i'll have midterm exam (already) someday next week

this posting is so damn lame,but i feel like journaling my daily life
i really wish to post a photo in this post but have nothing.zero.zilch.
this is one of the reason why i want a digicam
so dear God,could you please make my father accidentally read this blog (and understand English also) so he will buy me one as a late birthday gift?
i am too lazy to make a meal,so i'm having chocolate milk and oreo wafer rolls for my dinner
tonight i feel so cold so i went to bed wearing my long legging,oversized sweater,a pair of pink socks,and of course,thick blanket

P.S. : I feel so proud of Indonesia ! click here to know why ,it's not that important though ;p

Foodism

2008-11-18T04:46:00.000-08:00

Like a lot of other people,i like and dislike a lot of food
i've made my own category of food just for fun

Food that i dislike :
Beansprout (eeeek!)
Coke,and other carbonated drinks (they sting my tongue)
Caramel
Sweet cup corn

Food that i dislike but i have to eat it when my mother's around :
Honey
Carrot

Food that i dislike but i force myself to eat them :
Any kind of vegetable
Green tea

Food i love and i refuse to share it with anyone :
Pocky chocolate banana (nope you won't get a stick,so back off)
Chocolate Wafer Jumbo ice cream like in Sushi Tei & Sushi King

A while ago when i was home watching Travel Channel on TV,I saw this cool Chipshop restaurant at New York City
They deep fried everything
Chicken,potato,bread,pickles,chocolate,even Mars Bars and Sneakers
If you want something to be fried (and I mean,anything!) just tell them

how cool is that ?
they definitely make their way on my wish list

Oh,and weather has been nice lately
Rain mist and cool breeze all day
I even can wear my cardigan in the middle of the day,something that is impossible to do because it is freaking hot in this country
I dream of a digital camera,but have no idea which one produce the greatest image quality
yeah yeah blame me for being idealist,but i want my pictures to be artsy
any suggestion ?

The picture above taken at Bogor,sometime during January

Again,obsession

2008-11-13T05:21:00.000-08:00

I want to be able to say 'good morning' in every country in the world with its own language
I wanna wear a checkered coat and a beanie in a foreign country in a windy day

And then step inside a diner,have some waffle,warm coffee,and a good talk with a bunch of nice strangers

i wanna have chestnut colored hair (with bangs)

I dream about a random person saying "Hey,Miss,do you want to write an article in my magazine?"

It would be better if that magazine post some of my lomo pictures too

I start to buy guava juice in the mini market,just because i miss the one my mother always made last holiday

I want my closet to be empty,for no particular reason

When people said GG,they meant Gossip Girls, but I always think it means Gilmore Girls

I will continue drawing for sure

someday

do you have a reason to kill yourself?

2008-11-04T03:55:00.001-08:00

I DO !

dan gue berhenti menonton Slam Dunk episode 79 part 1
lalu mata gua basah
karena ini

UPDATE : I PASSED THE SUPPLEMENTARY TEST and yeah now i don't have to retake the subject :D
But,sorry Mom,Dad,for the very first letter C in my college life
i'll try harder in the future

chicken rollade

2008-11-02T04:47:00.000-08:00

hari ini gue akan menceritakan suatu kejadian tentang adek gue yg baru gue inget sekarang setelah sekian lama
tadi sore gue makan hanamasa sama kedua adek gue dan gue kayak ke-flash back ke suatu kejadian mirip kaya gini beberapa bulan lalu

jadi,waktu itu kejadiannya persis,gue sama kedua adek gue lagi makan di hanamasa
terus itu baru-baru bgd gue beli lomo
terus gue pengen ngetes nih ceritanya,foto-foto makan di hanamasa
tapi ternyata si lomo belom ber-batre
dengan semena-menanya gue nyuruh si bodon

Dita : San! Beliin Batre di Hero dong!
Bodon : (sekuat tenaga menolak) YEEEEEEH ! KOK AKU SIH?
Dita : Nggak aku Bayarin makan nih

Skak Mat

Bodon : (Agak marah) Yaudah sini mana duitnya
Gue : (Ngasih duit 20.000 rupiah) Nih
Bodon : (Menerima duit masih tampang kusut)
Gue : (Mencoba menjadi kakak yang baik hati) Yaudah,ntar kembaliannya buat kamu deh,jajan apa kek sana,coklat kek
Bodon : (kembali ceria) aseeek

Dan pergilah dia ke Hero

Dan kami kembali makan dengan riang

Lalala

tak lama kembalilah Bodon,dengan muka abstrak

Bodon : (naro kantong kresek isi batre ke atas meja) Nih
Dita : Makasih lo,mana kok kamu ga jajan? emang harga batrenya berapa?
Bodon : (kesel) SEMBILAN BELAS RIBU SEMBILAN RATUS!

oh well,nasip gak berpihak sama dia

ohya satu lagi
gue agak kagum dengan banyaknya informasi yg bisa dikatakan dalam satu kalimat panjang ibu-ibu
gak tau ibu orang lain yah,tapi nyokap gua bisa aja gt ngomong dengan nada tinggi dengan satu tarikan napas dan dalam satu kalimat bisa banyak informasi yg bisa kita dapatkan

kayak malem ini

nyokap dengan nada tinggi sambil berjalan dari ruang makan ke ruang tamu : ih dita mulai hari ini kamu jangan tidur sama dinda tidur sama ibu aja dek pake minyak kayu putih gitu biar ga sakit kamu ga sembuh-sembuh itu apaan sih kecoak yah ih apaan sih itu oh itu kabel henpon deh

tarik napas bu,santai

anyhow,gue baru aja beli dua buku

Dan gue suka dua-duanya

Si Mbot kocak,gila,sinting,Kambing Jantan versi orang kantoran mid-thirty
Si Rectoverso bagus,indah,menawan,colorful,khas Dewi Lestari sekali

Sekian review dari saya

Pictures are from google

disapointment

2008-10-26T06:35:00.000-07:00

gue orang yang berprinsip,its kinda stupid to give name to your belongings such as,laptop,or handphone (no offense!)
but since i bought my colorsplash with my own money,i feel an overwhelming feeling to take care of her,and yes,i gave her a name. dammit.
her name is pluvia. Its Greek for "rainbow".

anyway,i feel a bit of disappointment
gue udah memakai dua roll film slide keluaran lomography yang harganya lumayan mahal
sengaja supaya bisa gua cross process
jadi,cross process itu intinya nyuci slide pake cairan kimia yg salah,jadinya hasilnya bakal kontras bgd saturationnya
contohnya banyak bgd di buku-buku panduan lomo dan bagus-bagus
yah kaya gini lah contohnya (taken from the one and only,Google)

jadi kontras & saturated bgd kan yah kayak di-photo shop?
padahal asli
meanwhile,this is mine look like after cross processing

Monna

Dino

Spiderman Nyasar

Dira

Kinur

Rissa

gelap kan gelap kan?
padahal jelas-jelas itu fotonya di ruangan terang pake flash pula
kecewa banget parah :(
mana sih kok prakteknya ga sesuai teori?
ah apa abis ini pake film negatif biasa aja ya?
ah bete

oh yeah
kedai frozen yogurt asal US,Sour Sally,baru aja buka di Senayan City
ngantrinya rame kaya pas jaman-jaman J.Co baru ngetop
kemaren gue dan Shannia rela ngantri dan emang ternyata worth it bgd antriannya dan harganya yg -ahem- agak gak wajar buat satu cup frozen yoghurt doang sih
hahaha my topping is strawberry and chocolate chips
hmmm i officially became a fan

doa kakak yang ter-zhalimi

2008-10-23T06:17:00.000-07:00

dengan ini saya atas nama anindita arianti putri mau curhat
GILA YAH ! adek gua emang terlalu-lalu !
jadi begini ceritanya

Hari Senin

satu roll slide film isi 36 hasil dari lomo gue udah abis dipake
gue udah ga sabar banget mau ke nyetak
tapi berhubung gue yang anaknya asik ini cuma full reserved dan akan pergi-pergi pas weekend (mulai dari kamis sampe minggu) aja,dan ini masih hari senin dan gua ga ada rencana keluar rumah,gua bingung bukan kepalang
gue pikir,apa gua naek ojek aja yah ke fuji bintaro ? (soalnya smua mobil dipake oleh adek-adek dan bokap gua)
tapi freak banget
tapi asli ini gue udah ngebet bgd ngeliat hasilnya
tiba-tiba seonggok adek gue (gile seonggok bahasanya) yg bernama adinda arianti putri dengan sangat manis menawarkan

dinda : udah kak,sini kasih aku aja filmnya,ntar aku mampirin fuji pas sekolah besok
gue : (menangis terharu) GOD BLESS YOU !

Dan mulai hari ini berpindah tanganlah roll film ke tangan adek gua

Hari Selasa

Karena hari ini belom weekend,gua tetep dirumah
(gila basi bgd ya ! haha)
gue menunggu dengan sabar sampai adek gua pulang
pikiran gua,dia bakal pulang cepet karena dia lagi ulangan umum gitu
ternyata nasib sial,abis sekolah dia masih harus bimbel dulu
Dengan gelisah,gue menunggu dia pulang
sekitar jam setengah lima,dia pulang
gue menyambut dia dengan karpet merah

Gue : (dengan liar) MANA DIN ? MANA DIN?
Dinda : Nih (menyerahkan KLISE saja)

KLISE DOANG NYET! KAGAK DICETAK !
Asli gue gondok

Gue : Bawa lagi klisenya ! gamau tau ! pokoknya besok harus jadi !
Dinda : Iya iya deh,besok aku emang mau ke adorama kok sama temenku

Dan sia-sialah penantian gue seharian

Hari Rabu

Penantian panjang yang sama
Lelah aku lelah menunggu
Bener bener ga sabar gua nunggu hasil foto debut lomo colorsplash gue
Jam setengah lima,dia pulang

Gue : MANA DIN? MANA DIN ?
Dia : Besok jadinya

ANJRIT !

Gue : Lah kan harusnya jadinya cepet,kok pake besok
Dinda : iya abisnya kata mas-nya jadinya jam 2,kan jam 2 aku udah masuk bimbel,yaudah aku tinggal aja

MASYA ALLAH BERIKAN AKU KEKUATAN UNTUK SABAR

Hari Kamis

Kamis udah termasuk weekend bagi gua dan hari ini gua jalan-jalan
belanja ke ambassador dan segala macem
pulang ke rumah abis magrib gitu dengan bersiul-siul girang
hari ini dapet kemeja yang udah lama gua pengen
hati senang
plus,pulang-pulang pasti hasil foto udah ada dong
hati dobel senang

pas sampe dirumah gua langsung menyerbu

Gue : MANA DIN? MANA DIN ?
Dinda : (senyum-senyum,perasaan gue gak enak) ketinggalan di mobil temen aku
Gue : ...................................... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dinda : Ya maap ya kak,yang sekarang aku akuin emang kesalahan aku
Gue : (Meleleh seperti pasir,terbawa angin gurun)

Ya Allah
Karena saya merasa teraniaya,dan kata orang doa orang teraniaya bakal terkabul,maka saya manfaatkan kesempatan ini untuk berdoa
Ya Allah,semoga :

1. GPA saya tetap diatas 3 semester ini
2. Berat badan saya turun,yaaa bangsa 5kilo gituh
3. Saat saya mengecek rekening,ada uang 999 trilyun di rekening saya yg mucul secara ajaib
4. Saya dapet calon suami yang ganteng baek soleh rajin menabung tenggang rasa tepo seliro

amiiiiiiiiiiiiin~

Too Soon To Talk

2008-10-19T07:50:00.000-07:00

hope she will get well soon

meanwhile,yes i am in jakarta (again) !

Dita : Bu,aku mau bikin celana jins dong
Ibu : Yaudah bikin aja,kemaren si Isan baru bikin celana pendek tuh
Dita : Celana pendek kaya apa?
Ibu : Itu loh yang banyak kantongnya, celana cardigan

#2

Gue dan Dinda lagi dengerin lagu dari handphone dia,satu earphone berdua
gue yang megang kendali milih-milih lagunya
sampe ada suatu lagu berjudul "GarageBand" dan gua skip

Dinda : kok di skip kak?
Gue : Males ah, Band Sampah gitu judulnya
Dinda : Hah?
Gue : (makin pede) Iya,kan Garage Band, Band sampah
Dinda : (bingung) Kan .. Garage .. artinya garasi kan?
Gue : oiya,sampah mah Garbage ya
Dinda : (diem)
Gue : (diem)

coldplay done their part,how about nidji?

2008-09-24T14:41:00.000-07:00

in case you haven't noticed,coldplay and nidji had a little argument about who copies whom
ah yang bener ? kok nggak masuk cek en ricek ?
oh benar,hal itu karena perseteruan ditutup sedemikian rupa oleh menejemen kedua belah pihak supaya nggak bocor ke publik
tapi saya,atas nama anindita arianti putri,penulis handal yang punya banyak koneksi (e.g : arisan bulan kmaren sama jeng gwineth paltrow,belanja di gede bage sama om barack obama,etc) berhasil mendapatkan berita tersebut
bagi anda-anda yang belum membacanya,silahkan klik disini

AR : Siapa tuh bini lo ya?

RD : YOHA ! kalo ga percaya,si pak menejer suruh kita liat di kutub katanya
AD : kutub ? kutub utara? atau selatan?
G : Hah ? jauh amat mau liat coldplay doang
R : Serius lu kutub ? YUTUB kali ?!!
RD : oh iyah iyah,yutub,maap salah dikit
*Lalu mereka pun menonton video klip coldplay di yutub
G : widiii cool juga ya si chris niruin guanya,kurang kribo aja doi
R : Heh kok lu malah seneng sih ! KITA DIJIPLAK MEN ! DIJIPLAK !
RD : yaudah kita bales jiplak aja si coldplay

Seorang kawan berkata bahwa template lama saya yg berwarna hitam membuat blog saya terlihat jadi kelam gitu loh
Saya berpikir "Iya juga ya"

Lalu saya menggantinya dengan template ini
Agak-agak vintage asik gimana gitu deh
Kalau dari anda tidak kelihatan apa-apa mungkin anda tidak memakai mozilla firefox
Jadi pakailah Mozilla Firefox 3 ! Asik loh ! Loh kok jadi iklan

Jadi jadi jadi
komen dong apakah anda suka template baru saya? atau lebih baik saya kembali ke template lama saya yang kelam ?

Tumbling Down

2008-09-16T08:26:00.000-07:00

imagine,people,IMAGINE
imagine you want something so bad that you wish for it every single time
you check that thing everyday on the internet,desperately stares it at the screen with sad eyes
you always imagines that thing every single night before you go sleep
you always wonder when the time will come to you having that thing in your every single footstep
and then suddenly your close friend get it for himself
while i know he is not even interested in that thing

I WAS SO DESPERATELY ANGRY DISAPPOINTED JEALOUS AT THE SAME TIME

yes people
hamy just orders himself a Diana
A DIANA !
SOMETHING ON MY BIRTHDAY WISH LIST ! I AM FREAKING OUT !
This is definitely ruined my mood
i spent all afternoon cursed on him,but now i try to let it go
life can be cruel sometimes :,((

Aw geez,my mood is totally down right now,maybe I stop writing for a while

mistery questions

2008-09-15T19:59:00.001-07:00

These random questions suddenly pop in my mind while i stares the ceiling,trying to get an afternoon sleep :

1. My room is upstairs.I have to use the stairs every now and then,whether to go the bathroom,kitchen,or going outside. Imagine i take the stairs 10 times per day,that means 70 times per week,280 times per month,3360 times per year.
How can I make sure that not even once i will fall down from the stairs?
creepy

2.A couple of days ago,i had a little chat with a friend from elementary school.I know we were at the same school,but i barely remember whether i was in same class with her.
But she-surprisingly-remember me very well. She told me we were in the same class at 2nd grade,and how she called me 'Anin' not 'Dita' like any other friends. I felt flattered she remembers me,but even more stunned after she state the reason why she remembers me
she said : i remember you,because you were good at drawing
her simple statement made me realize how much i used to love drawing.
As far as I remember,I was always drawing all the time,I couldn't resist the appeal of a blank paper
In fact I made several short comic
I drew and drew all through my childhood and teens.
until i got accepted in FSRD ITB,which i really want to get in
but my father didn't let me
so we had a fight and i cried for days
and i stop drawing since that day
i never ever made a single real drawing since my university life begins
i haven't draw anything for 2 years now
and now I realizes that,i felt like crying
Why do I stop doing something I used to love so much?

I'm gonna go buy a sketch book later

3.This morning,after Computer Programming tutorial class,i bumped into a girl on my way home.
And she was talking to herself
And no,people,she was not using any handsfree,nor ipod and mp3 player
she was talking,and her expression was somehow a little angry
she passed me,still talking,left me speechless
Was that for real ?

4.Okay seriously,are we having Database System tutorial class this afternoon ?
I really want to sleep but feel rather disturbed because some people said we are having it,while some other people said we are not.

Well,let my mysteries remain seated
What's yours?
:)

P.S : Oh,and that girl from my elementary school,she goes to FSRD ITB now
yeah right,life can be so ironic sometimes

haduh nge-blog lagi
padahal kan janjinya sehari satu tapi ya gimana lagi kalo lagi ada inspirasi
jadi gue lagi membaca blog post teman sma gue yang bernama ayu,yang kuliah di singapur,yang cerita kalo cowok-cowok disana suka over ganjen kalo ngeliat cewek indonesia
which is totally the same here !
you can ask any indonesian who live here,we are absolutely getting used to being stared or whistled
kenapa sih? nggak ada barang bagus ya mas di sini? heran deh

tapi ini yang paling bikin gue kesel:

selama gue hidup gue ga pernah punya account di bank manapun
jaman-jaman sekolah mah duit selalu cash dari bokap nyokap
nah sejak gue kuliah di luar negeri,gue harus punya account dong
jadilah sebelum gue berangkat ke sini gue buka account bank mandiri
yang ternyata si mas-mas customer service nya kenal sama bokap gue loh (tenar juga doi!)
terus gue merasa service di sana bagus banget,karena dengan baik dan sabar ngasih tau gue step stepnya dengan jelas,berhubung gue nggak pernah punya account jadi gue ga ngerti dong
terus pas akhirnya selesai gue dikasih hadiah boneka gitu,jerapah
lucu deh,entah karena doi kenal sama bokap gue,atau emang bgitu service-nya

anyhoooo,di malaysia gue pun buka account Maybank
terus ada satu event dimana gue mau narik cash cukup banyak buat bayar kuliah jadi gue gabisa dong narik di atm yg ada limitnya cuma 1000 perhari,bisa peyot gue setiap hari ngambil duit mulu
jadi gue pergilah ke Maybank terdekat dan mengisi formulir untuk withdrawal money
trus gue dilayani sama seorang mas-mas
mas-mas ini emang perawakannya udah ga enak,senyum-senyum mulu

mas-mas : dari mane dek?
gue : jakarta
mas-mas : oooh jakarta,study kat mana?
gue : MMU
mas-mas : ooo MMU,bile balik jakarta?
gue : nanti pas hari raya
mas-mas : ooo hari raya,boleh bagi nomer telfon tak?

WATDEFAK BANGET BEGINI NIH SERVICE ORANG MALAYSIA ?

gue :(tanpa basa-basi ) nggak
mas-mas : (tengsin abis karena diketawain temen-temen mas-mas bank yg lain) kenapa nggak boleh?

(PAKE NANYA LAGI !! KARENA ELO NGGAK SEGANTENG CHRISTIAN SUGIONO LAH,KALO ELO SEGANTENG DIA DENGAN SENANG HATI GUE BAGI NOMER HAPE GUE,LANGSUNG LAMAR JUGA GUE TERIMA DEH)

gue : (senyum sopan) hehe nggak lah
mas-mas :(keukeuh) boleh ya?
dia akhirnya selesai dengan tugasnya dan menghand-over gue duit yg gue withdraw
gue : (cepet-cepet ambil tu duit dan pergi)

sementara di belakang si mas-mas masih manggil gue : dek dek

begitulah sodara-sodara kisah pahit saya
andai saja mas-mas Maybank juga kenal dengan bokap gue *sigh*

today i did nothing useful,just sleeping,doing math technique assignment,and chatting with harin
i miss miss miss miss him and my other bestfriends from high school!
x(
please fast forward the time until 18 October so i can flickering around with them again

you know what i miss most from ramadhan at home?
martabak telor,pals
what is better that eating a thick cruncy martabak telor after 13 hours fasting?
nothing

well,i've been more KERE lately
gue biasanya kesel sama duit koinan karena berat-beratin dompet
dan i usually neglect the litte blue one ringgit note ;p (sorry)
but this afternoon,i am very excited to found a couple of one ringgit note from my laptop bag
"asik bisa buat beli roti tawar buat saur besok-besok" is all i think about
segitunya?
segitu kere-nya?
yes i am

P.S : i really want to redecorate my room
in fact i plan to do it this weekend (which means in my bday? oh well..)

Shark Attack !

2008-08-19T06:34:00.000-07:00

Gue kayaknya sih udah pernah nulis somewhere in this blog bahwa gue sangat amat takut sekali dengan water predator
so,it means shark in the sea,and crocodile in fresh water
ini kebalikan banget dengan gue yang suka banget pergi ke pantai daripada ke gunung
gue nggak pernah berani ada di air yang kedalamannya melebihi batas bahu gue (i am short,so it means i will never go far from the beach)

tapi ketakutan gue beralasan loh!
In 2007, ISAF(International Shark Attack File) investigations tallied 71 unprovoked shark attacks on humans.
itu kan berarti dalam sebulan bisa ada 6 kali serangan
yang juga berarti dalam seminggu bisa ada lebih dari satu serangan
GIMANA COBA?

dan salah satu korbannya adalah tak lain tak bukan si host ganteng American Idol,Ryan Seacrest
ini berita lengkapnya
tambah nervous deh gue
serius nih,padahal gue cinta banget sama pantai
tapi kayaknya mulai sekarang gua nggak akan pernah lagi berenang di pantai
paranoid gue makin parah semakin bertambahnya usia

ini tips-tips untuk menghindari serangan hiu untuk anda-anda yang suka berenang di pantai,diambil dari website National Geographic :

HOW TO AVOID AN ATTACK

• Stay away from the mouths of rivers after heavy rains, when freshwater fishes and other animals are swept out to sea.

• Swim clear of fishing boats. They often trail fish remains and blood, which can draw sharks.

• If you're bleeding, including menstruating, stay on the beach. Sharks can smell and taste even the smallest amount of blood from over a mile (1.6 kilometers) away and trace it back to its source.

• If you cut or injure yourself in the water, get out! Do not stay in the water with blood around you.

• Stay out of the water if fish blood or baitfish are present. In other words, steer clear of fishers.

• Avoid large groups of fish, seals, or sea lions. They all are prominent on the shark's menu.

• Stay away if you see large groups of dolphins and seabirds. They are attracted to the same food sharks eat. And don't make the mistake of thinking that if dolphins are present, there won't be any sharks around. Dolphins can be prey for large sharks.

• Stay away from dead animals in the water.

• Stay out of the water at dawn, dusk, and night

• Do not wear high-contrast clothing (orange and yellow are said to be risky colors) or shiny jewelry (which may appear to be like fish scales). Sharks see contrast very well.

• Leave the water quickly and calmly if a shark is sighted. Do not provoke, harass, or entice a shark, even a small one.

• If fish or turtles start to behave erratically, leave the water. They may be behaving like that because there is a shark in the area.

• If you feel something brush up against you, get out of the water

• Swim, surf, or dive with other people. Sharks most often attack individuals.

• Don't wander too far from shore.(SETUJU! SETUJU!)

jadi panjang nih postingannya~

Aren't they the cutest thing ever ?

2008-08-18T05:54:00.000-07:00

I don't know why but i found myself drawning at flickr site quite often lately
and i found these
This Bnice2mice girl is an artist and she is currently making some toys from knitting
and i found them totally adorable !! (yess,double exclamation mark)
here are some example of them

oh my god
don't you just wanna eat them?

by the way,i'm having midterm test (again) tomorrow
so what the heck am i actually doing here?
have to study
ciao :)

I DID BAD ON MY EXAM

2008-08-14T09:58:00.000-07:00

IT WAS FREAKIN' COLD ON THAT CLASSROOM BUT SOMEHOW I WAS SWEATING
BECAUSE I KNEW I COULDN'T MAKE IT
:(

by the way i want to share something weird about me :
- i am afraid to close my eyes when showering,i always think that something scary will suddenly show up when i open my eyes
- i get very nervous when i swim but i can't see the bottom,mind that attitude,but actually water predators really scare the shit outta me
- the point above also happened if i only just swim at very shallow beach or swimming pool,saying something like "i thought there's something in the water" is enough to make me run wild out of the water
- it makes me more nervous if couldn't touch the bottom,drowning is a very traumatic event,so when suddenly a big wave come and i lose contact with the sea bottom,i get awfully panic and collapse spontaneusly (a friend of mine hurt because of my panic-kick)
- its weird,but i kinda don't like it when my best friend breaks up with his old gf,eventhough i know that is the best way,but somehow i just love to see them together
- i also hate the fact that john meyer and jennifer anniston breaks up! john and jen were meant to be ..
- i am not going to shock when i know i fail machine architecture midterm test :(

Getaway Trip

2008-08-09T04:37:00.000-07:00

Hi!
I've just came home from a 4 nights trip at an amazing island
Langkawi
setelah pulang dari sana,gue langsung kangen lagi sama suasana disana
disana itu tempo hidup a bit slower than usual
jadi kita bisa rileks dan ga harus mikirin apa-apa
santaaii
namanya juga liburan,haha
cuma mikirin mau pergi kemana abis ini? makan malem hari ini sotong atau udang yah?
kalau nggak tau harus ngapain,tinggal nyebrang jalan dikit dari rumah dan langsung nyebur ke laut biru pantai Cenang

whoaaa i miss it :(

gue udah menunggu-nunggu liburan yang sesungguhnya sejak setahun yang lalu
yg gue maksud liburan sesungguhnua itu seperti ini
NO MALL ! (which makes coming home to Jakarta doesn't count)
tempat aksotis,dimana gue bisa pake celana pendek,sendal jepit,gelang kaki dan topi lebar,jalan-jalan nyobain makanan baru dan beli souvenir aneh
aahh that's what i call holiday!

looking forward for next trip
have to save money again,DUH!
haha

resep jitu memasak onion ring aloha

2008-04-17T03:37:00.000-07:00

gue lagi suka banget masak onion ring
karena selaen enak,gampang juga bikinnya,cuma butuh bawang bombay,tepung sama telor
tapi sodara-sodara,jangan dipikir membuat onion ring yg krenyes itu mudah,karena setelah berkali-kali mengalami kegagalan,akhirnya saya berhasil juga membuat onion ring yang garing IYEY
faktor-faktor kegagalan saya adalah :
1. salah tepung
2. api terlalu besar
3. mencampur tepung dengan air
4. faktor utama : MALES BANGET ngebolak-balik bawang ke dalem tepung,sumpah gtau kenapa males bgd,bikin tangan kotor pula,seringkali ditengah-tengah membolak-balik,tiba-tiba gue ilfeel dan gajadi masak

tapi semua sudah diatasi! JREENG!
ikuti langkah dibawah ini dan anda akan mendapatkan onion ring krenyes tanpa tangan kotor

ALAT DAN BAHAN :
1. bawang bombay,suka-suka mau berapa,semampunya
2. tepung KOBE (harus KOBE,gaboleh yang lain)
3. telur ayam
4. satu tempat makan tupperware (atau merk apapun) yang paling gede yg ada di dapur
5. satu tempat lain yang gak usah terlalu gede
6. garam dan lada

CARA MEMBUAT :
1. kupas bawang bombay
2. potong melintang,biar jadi kayak cincin,kalo gabisa,yaudah potong apa aja,yg penting jadi kecil
3. kocok telor di mangkok kecil
4. masukkan tepung ke dalam tempat makan yang guede,kira-kira sampe sepertiganya
5. satu persatu,celupin bawang yang udah dipotong ke dalem telor,kalo takut tangan kotor,pake garpu aja nyelupinnya,terus masukin ke dalam tempat makan tepung
6. kalo udah semua bawang,tutup tempat makan,terus DIKOCOK-KOCOK SEKUAT TENAGA. itulah alasan mengapa dinamai onion ring aloha,karena prosesnya harus digoyang-goyang seperti pinggul penari hawaii
7. setelah puas,buka tutup tempat makan,dan lihatlah semua bawang yang sudah terlumur dengan indah dengan tepung tanpa tangan kita kotor HUAHA
8. goreng bawang tepung itu di minyak panas dengan api sedang
9. kalo sudah digoreng semua,masukin semua onion ring ke tempat makan satu lagi yg lebih kecil,masukkan garam dan lada secukupnya,KOCOK LAGI agar semua bumbu tercampur
10. hidangkan selagi hangat dan krius

ke carrefour aja ah

2008-04-14T23:06:00.000-07:00

semalem gue hamy sama irfan pergi belanja ke carrefour
lalala
eh lalu gue sama hamy men-spot satu rak sepatu yang bagus dan murah
ada empat tingkat,luas,dan tertulis harganya cuma RM 26.90
dikomporin irfan yang katanya "rak sepatu gue cuma 3 tingkat dari kayu doang harganya RM 40 loh loh" ,akhirnya gue sama hamy membelinya
pas bayar di kasir,gue ngeliat billnya
LOH KOK LOH KOK tertulis di bill bahwa harga rak sepatunya RM 39.90 aja loh
merasa tertipu,akhirnya kita datengin customer servicenya (yaudahlah,kita nggak ada kerjaan juga,mendingan sekalian aja ngerjain orang carrefour ;p )
trus prosesnya agak lama sih,dia ngecek harga ke dalem dulu,walkie-talkiean sama ngga tau siapa,ngecek lagi,walkie-talkiean lagi

akhirnya at last gue disuruh isi REFUND FORM
yess balik deh 13 RM gue,begitu pikir saya
gue pikir bakal dibalikin selisih uangnya doang
ternyata yg dibalikin ke gue RM 39.90 LOH
ENTAH MENGAPA SI RAK SEPATU DIKASIH KE KITA FREE OF CHARGE!
dia ngomong dengan aksen lokai yang kedengeran di kuping kita "karena ini kesilapan kami,manager kami bleyeyeyddggbabbajkakja.."
jadi kita ngga ngerti-ngerti amat sebenernya kenapa barang ini dikasih gratis,cuman tau kalo dia berbuat kesilapan dan manager dia melakukan sesuatu yg hanya Tuhan yg tau

YEEEEEEEEE RAK SEPATU GRATIISSS
buat teman-teman semua
KE CARREFOUR AJAA AHH~

You know you've been in Malaysia too long when:

-You pop in a shopping mall just because 'they have aircon in there.
-You moan about when Roti Canai comes for RM0.60 when it used to be just RM0.50.
-You think there's nothing wrong with putting chili sauce on everything you eat.
-You find roti for breakfast amazing.
-You automatically take money out of your wallet to hand over when you're pulled over by a policeman.
-You're not surprised when your passport photocopy works as an ID
-You have actually seen the mysterious 2RM note
-You can actually find your way around Sungei Wang Plaza, and when you turn a corner it doesn't just look the same as where you had just come from
-When you gladly wait 2 minutes for a lift taking you to the 1st floor
-It is just 11:30 p.m and the Taxi driver thinks you are high and wants to charge you for midnight charge.
-You're no longer laughing at "Belia Benci Dadah" billboards
-Gardenia tastes "so good, you can even eat it on its own"

superb
