Yellowwwww....!!! ^______^

I'm blogging again after my absence for a quite long time, my last post is on Jan '10. Oops...HAHA...well, my old habbit...my mood is gone :p

Okay, now I'm back....!!

And, the story is about my new work projects, as if you read my previous blog about there's a client hunting & demanding about the album ready for their big day. Now, the clients that I'm handling demanding about the design & photo editing....!! WOW....it's getting though....Coz, the bride is a graphic designer & photographer *a beginner* so, she's concern about the design & tone color of the photos. She underlined that she does not like the too washed out tone colors. She likes the bright & bold tone colors. And a very clean-simple design. She gave me a reference: Apertura. livebooks.aperturaphoto.com/ A photography based in US, the photographers are Indonesian, surprising !!! I don't know about this photography vendor yet, I even never hear that name but after I looking at their web, WOW...I'm stunned !! And I'm one of their fans now...!!! And the layout is very simple...that's my clients referring to...

After a tiring week, been chased from one client into another client, and here comes the time for editing this one client...and took 4-5 days to editing a whole photos, now I'm stepping into a design process. Only 2 sheets (4 pages) I've done, it already makes me breathless.........

Phewww.........I feel so nerves & worry when I'm designing it. Can't stop thinking about WHAT DOES SHE GONNA SAYS ????

My goodness, it's only 2 sheets...how I make it 40 sheets...?? Can I get a heart attack?? HAHAHA *lebay mode on* but seriously, I've got a heart-bumping when I design the first 2 sheets.......... ~_____~

And, for make sure she likes it or not, I send 2 sheets design to her for approval about the layout & tone colors. And a day after she replied my email, she says....she loved it.........!!!!!

GOSH......................... ^_____^

I feel like my burdens fly a half from my shoulder... :p but don't be too much happy Nad-nad...a long long struggle is waiting for me. Remember my boss said, the album must be finished by April, coz my boss gonna visiting her in Syd also for pre wedding photo shoot there.

But, I learn something new here...*I always learn from unique clients*

A good design does not consist a colorfull, too much graphics elements, too much ornaments. Lately, I'm designing a scrapbook style in wedding or prewedding album. My style is affected by victorian-classic vintage style, like this: paisleycatscrapsfreebloglayouts.blogspot.com/

For the tone colors for editing, this one I love: simplybloomphotography.com/blog/. I ♥ their artworks so much !!!!!!

I like those style, coz...I'm into a classic style, I like a victorian-vintage-classic stuff. Anyway, it always return into what it's called TASTE.

In my business field, taste has the role. Every clients has it own taste, cannot seeing them as always the same. Maybe some of them have a similar taste, some are not. What we have to do is understand their personal style.

And with this my new clients, I learn another new style.

I learn from them also before, on their prewedding album. My old design for prewedding album are rejected by them, they dislike the tone colors. Too washed out & they're right. It's my wake up calling. I realized, my tone colors are boring & yes...I like my new tone colors now, from washed out into brightful & bold colors but yet still soft & classy *my personal color* :p Where do I get that? I got it from my client...I learn from them & 1 thing I realized, you don't have to be ashamed to learn from anyone. Learn as long as you can, while we're still breath, while we are able to learn.

It feels like only a glimpse of lights & then TARA...!! Another year has just begun...How short, how fast the time goes by.

2009 just over, it behind us now...a new year spread in front of us, to begin another journey.

From all the years I've live in, 2009 is the best year in my life... !!! The year where I meet a lot of new people, make a new friends, friends that colouring my life. The year where I found a second family, my workplace. The year where I changes...a lot. In a positive for sure =)

1. The year I spend a most of time with my besties and a friends.
  A friends that fulfill my life with craziness-wackyness-sillyness-spontaneous makes my life more adventurous !!!  With them, I spend the most craziest party ever in my whole life & I wont regret it.

2. The year I found my second family: my present workplace (JoseWyatt Photography).
A place where I explore my talent & passion unlimited. A place where I learn many things. A place where I learns from many characters I meet around here. A place where I spend a half of my day with them. A place I meet a new sisters, they're not only co-workers for me, but also my friends. Doing stupid-silly-wacky-wieirdo things together...only to release our boredom & work load pressure. But I do enjoy my work there...!!! Really I do....!!! And I conquer the most hardest & difficult project as long as I working here. You can read on my previous post =).

5. The year I finally had a relationship what I'm dreaming of but it ends before 2010.
I choose to let it go, I choose to move on & believe that someday...someone gonna take his place.

Still many story of my life in 2009 that are amazing-great-fun-crazy-wacky-silly-mad, but there also tears-sadness-pain-hurt-regret-anger. And all of them, makes my life colourful & meaningful. Like a plain paper, drawed with many colors on it. I know, I've change a lot and it will always be. People changing, so do I. I'll do anything I want, what I like, what I love, what become my passion & don't wanna think too much about others says, coz they don't know a sh*t about me. I just wann be me, happy to be me, enjoy of being me. As ling as it's a positive, I will go on my way.

Just live your life to the max....!!! ^_________^

It began with a little surprise I got from my co-workers on Thursday afternoon (Dec 3rd, 2009). Before she went home, she put a tiny notes on my desk & then she's runaway like a Road Runner, even before I say a single word.... (@_@)!


And, this is what I found....TARA......!

A Dark Chocolate from Elsheca Herrera, my beloved co-workers. ^_^

I know, maybe for other people this seems...so ordinary, but for me personally...it's awesome, it's small but means a LOT in my heart. It's not everyday u given a surprise, even it's small...but it feels sooooo sweet....!! And all the tiring-dizzy-hectic day gone in a second when someone gave u this....that's exactly what I felt when I got this gift ^_____^

And, I realised...just feel the warm of love by the beloved people surround u and u feel happy, it's enough for me...!! I don't have a bf, I'm not a rich gal, I don't have a fancy cars, I have nothing....but I have a sincere love from my parents *even it does not perfect as I expect for*, I have loving-care friends, I have a workplace like a second family and many more...But, I do feel happy.

If u put ur happiness only in ur bf, what a pity & meaningless ur life is...seriously. Coz I see it in a real life....I know somebody who just obessesed to get marry in young age & when she break up, she can't stop thinking to catch up another guy. Is life meaningful only when u get marry? Only when u have a bf?

Having a bf is amazing surely...but if u put ur life to it...I see it just the same u don't have a life at all.

I wanna have a bf, I wanna get marry one day & have my own family, but that's not the highest goal that I adore in my life. My life is not make & purpose to pregnant & brojol...alias punya anak tok ! My life is to make it live to the max, fulfil & reach what I want to achieve *not marry in this context*.

Saturday - 21 Nov '09, is a weird & unexpected Saturday for me. I'm having 2 weird experience that day & heres this my story...

1. Trapped.
Gua bukan tipe orang yang suka nonton SINETRON Indo-drama2 roman picisan, in fact...I HATE IT TIL DEATH !!!! Namun apa daya kalo lo terperangkap di sebuah sikon dimana...u don't have a choice & u watch it at the end...well that's happened to me. ZZzzzZZZ~

Sabtu siang setelah gua ketemuan ama 2 orang temen gua (Dewi & Hardy) setelah pulang kantor. Tadinya kita mau nonton Christmas Carol di Emporium XXI tapi karena jam keluarnya nya mepet banget yaitu jam 19.00 kita gak jadi nonton, karena pas kita mau pesen tiket jam 15.00 ternyata udah closed. Akhirnya, Hardy anter gua & Dewi pulang, gua mampir maen ke rumah Dewi karena kita berencana untuk ke supermarket to buy some stuff. Di rumah temen gua si Dewi itu kira2 jam setengah 4 sore, & temen gua mulai setel DVD drama Taiwan yang dia suka banget, judulnya Knock Knock Loving U. ........... GROOOOKKK!! Gua ketiduran setelah 15 menit dia setel DVD itu. Karena pada dasarnya gua gak suka cerita2 drama roman macam itu, menurut gua itu cerita murahan, gampang ditebak, cuma jual tampang pemain2 nya. Aduh....gak mutu banget !!

Tapi DVD nya ngadat2 & putus2, akhirnya temen gua males nonton & akhirnya dimatiin ma dia. Ganti ke channel TV biasa, dia nyari acara Take Me Out & dia nanya gua disiarin dimana, gua bilang di Indosiar. NAH !!! Ternyata acaranya mulai jam 6 sore, yang lagi disiarin malah acara sinetron KAMPUNGAN+MURAHAN+ BODOH berjudul Jalan Terakhir. Yang maen si Marcelino Lefrandt & Roger Danuarta. Ceritanya berkisah tentang persahabatan 2 orang bernama Danny (Marcelino Lefrandt) & Brando (Roger Danuarta), dimana si Danny selalu melindungi & menolong Brando dalam setiap kesulitan & masalah bahkan sampe pada akhirnya si Danny ini mati cuma gara2 ngelindungin si Brando. Dengan bumbu penyedap sedikit kisah roman, si Danny ini naksir & akhirnya pacaran dengan PRT nya sendiri !!! Cewek yang jadi PRT gua gak tau namanya sapa karena gua cuma bisa bilang ASTAGA NAGA... Si Brando merit karena udah MBA. Akting si Marcelino & Roger datarnya minta ampuuuun, cuma menang di action scene berantem niru mafia2 HK yang jelas2...gak ada tai2nya. Di setiap adegan dialog drama anatar Danny & Brando atau Danny sama pacar pembantunya sendiri selalu ada backsound lagu "Ku akan menjagamu...di tidur di hidupmu...di semua...lalalala~~...." HOEK !!!!!!! Belum lagi dialog yang datar & kaku....AAAARGHHH !!! Gua bener2 gak tahan!!! Tapi ya apa daya, ini TV temen gua, gua gak berhak untuk ambil remote nya & main ganti channel. Gua juga gak tau kenapa temen gua nontonin ini sinetron, entah buat iseng2 doank...karena sepanjang sinetron qta gak henti2nya bilang "JIJAY" "NAJIS" tapi beneran deh....gua gak betah!!!!

2. Unexpected.
Malemnya, gua & Dewi dinner ama temen2 qta yang laen (RYan-Andrew-Ferry-Hardy-Daniel) setelah dinner kita semua gak tau mau lanjut kemana. Belum lagi sebelum acara makan pake acara marah2an antara si Dewi & Ryan, gara2nya si Ryan pas mau jemput Dewi di telpon dia bilang udah didepan rumahnya Dewi, padahal dia ngerjain si Dewi, dia malah muter haluan mobilnya & jemput gua dulu. Gua pas dijemput bingung, kenapa gua yang dijemput duluan? Ternyata si Ryan kerjain Dewi. Gua udah ada feeling, si Dewi bakalan ngamuk beneran. Dan memang benar, si Dewi marah ama Ryan. Karena si Dewi udah pake keluar didepan pintu rumahnya & cengo nungguin Ryan, ternyata dia malah dikerjain. Kadang2 si Ryan itu kalo ngerjain orang emang agak2 keterlaluan sih. Temen gua si Ryan ini emang terkenal jahil & super iseng, cuma...kadang2 dia itu suka khilaf, padahal ini bukan kejadian pertama kalinya.

Lalu setelah selesai berembuk ngalor ngidul gak jelas, kita decide untuk ke Pure di Menara Imperium-Kuningan. Pas udah menuju Kuningan, si Dewi telpon gua yang sembil ama Hardy untuk muter balik & menuju...Blowfish sodara2!!!! Gua seketika itu juga gak siap!!! Karena...I'm so un prepared to clubbing!!! Gua pake blouse pink+skinny jeans+ balack blinky sandals...!!! Guys, we know here in Indo, all women must dress up to club!!! It's rule #1 !! No sandal+blouse+shirt. Bener aja, begitu sampe gua gak pede sama sekali karena gua berada di tengah2 fashion show!!! Gak ada ce yang pake baju selancai gua, yang ada beberapa ce liat gua dengan pandangan aneh !!! YA IYA LAH YAAA!!! Gua juga sadar gua paling aneh sendiri !!! Karena temen2 gua udah nyampe semua, gua tadinya udah pasrah aja masuk walaupun gua gak pede abis. Sebenernya si Ryan & temennya 1 lagi juga gak mau karena si Ryan juga lagi gak mood, temennya 1 lagi ce juga gak pede dengan penampilannya, padahal dia udah dress up !! Bahkan jauh mendingan daripada gua !! AKhirnya, diputuskan...kita pindah ke IndoChine di fX. WUSH!!!

Rombongan yang sampe fX terlebih dahulu adalah gua-Hardy-Andrew-Ferry. Tepat di sebelah IndoChine, adalah XXI. Dan otomatis para pria2 itu langsung terpikir untuk nonton 2012 karena dari kemaren mereka mau nonton tidak kebagian tiket. Lalu kita iseng ke loket & cek tiket, ternyata kosong melompong!!! Hanya ada 5 orang yang nonton !! Tadinya hampir saja si Hardy & Andrew book tiket, tapi Andrew bilang nunggu yang lain gimana, padahal film baru dimulai jam 00.15. Gua bilang, Dewi mau aja nonton 2x (Gua-Dewi-Daniel udah nonton) karena Dewi emang pernah bilang kalo nonton 2012 2x dia mau, cuma....gua lupa bahwa Dewi gak mau nonton midnight karena dia pasti tidur. Tapi karena Hardy-Andrew udah gak sabar & gak mau ilang kesempatan nonton 2012 dengan sikon bioskop kosong melompong akhirnya mereka lari ke loket & pesen tiket untuk kita semua ber 9!!! Ryan & temen ce nya juga belom nonton, begitu mereka tau bisokop kosong, semua pada gak mau lewatin kesempatan ini, mengingat antrian 2012 selalu kayak ular tangga.

Akhirnya, gua-Dewi-Daniel kembali pulang ke rumah masing2. Karena qta decide gak ikut nonton. Dewi-Daniel rada bete sedikit karena, para pria itu gak kontek2 terlebih dahulu bahwa mereka mau nonton, akhirnya Dewi-Daniel ngerasa sia2 ke fX. Tapi gua bingung juga karena sikon seperti ini emang gak bisa ditebak. Apalagi begitu para pria itu liat seat untuk 2012 masih kosong melompong & they wanna grab it fast !! Gua juga sebenernya sangat tidak enak hati begitu kita harus ninggalin BF hanya karena gua yang tidak well prepared & Ryan & Temen ce nya gak pengen banget untuk dugem.

Dan buat gua pribadi, ini jadi pelajaran untuk selalu aware kemana kita mau spend saturrday night, jadi gua well prepared. Selalu komunikasi & menanyakan yang lain jika temen kita ada yang mau kemana & ngapain, gak secara sepihak memutuskan.

If u read my previous posting titled "All I Need is Time" about how distress I am bcoz of that d#mn blackout & 1 project client I handled...well guys, this is about the result of the project.....and believe me, I do have a Genie* =p

First of all, this one project supposed to be a normal project, but becoz of :
1. D#mn blackout
2. My clients demand every material ready on the D Day (Dec 5, 2009)
This project become a super duper hectic project or in another words...an Express Project. That's why I said, I really need a genie to finish all this only in a blink!

And finally on Friday - Nov 13, my clients come to review the Design Prewedding Album & 3 Canvas, also at the same time they drop the photo frames for display in the D day which is it doesn't matter at all for me. So my boss who met them and presented the whole review, while I'm on the next room (Designer Room) are sooooo nerves, worries, affraid......even I look like an real autism...so idiot!!! ~_~

Then my boss called me to met my clients to talk some of changing about design, but...actually they only asked to relocated some different photos, a minor request & I can finish it only in a minute, the rest of it...DONE!! Until this part, I can breathe a lil bit....
About their Canvas, there's 1 customized Canvas that makes me completely dizzy sampe muka gua tetep kusut coz I didn't found the idea yet, what should I do on this???

Okay, on Saturday morning, with a fresh mind...I make another alternatives Canvas, my boss said yes & I'd send them 2 reviews for alternatives. The phone ring in 20 minutes after I'd send them by e-mail & my client chosed the 1st review for Canvas. I told my boss, my boss said go ahead, prepared the whole material for print by Monday (Nov 16)
. ..............and I breathe freely.................. ^__________^

This project maybe seems usual & nothing special....but for me personally, it's extraordinary becoz......only in 3 days (start from Nov 8-12) why I said 3 days..? Coz Nov 8-9 blackout for half day!!!!! And start from Nov 10-12 I'm working on this project, non-stop on working hour *even more than 8 hours, yes...I took overtime* 2 days to editing 52 photos, 1 day to finish the design for 40 pages, and I started to got panic since Tuesday (Nov 9) I become so totally freakin out & scared to myself......I thought that, I'm not sure can I finish this???

I only have 2 days and less of 52 photos to be done. This is the hardest project I’ve handled. Wednesday (Nov 10) I become super duper autism with my work, muka gua udah kelipet 12 (pinjem kata Eva ~my co-workers~ ), tampang dah acak kadut, tampang gua dah makin kelaiatan serem & super jutek (Maaf kawan2 JW, don't get misunderstood please....saya tidak jutek sama kalian, apa daya...muka gua begini kalo udah autis ~_~).....gua bahkan sampe gak mood ol YM/MSN for the whole week!!! The only thing I'm thinking of only this project, I'm running out of time & I need to chase it.
Di saat yang sama, ketika gua sedang lembur & mata gua udah perih kelamaan melototin Photoshop, menjelang pulang hari Rabu (Nov 11), gua gak sengaja…iseng2 buka profile fesbuk senior gua yg baru ketemu hari Minggu kemaren. Di kotak profil sebelah kiri dibawah foto, dia nulis gini….In every challenges, there’s a big reward inside. And it makes me think right away!!

Yes, this is the biggest challenges I’ve ever met while I’m working here in JoseWyatt. And the reward isn’t a money & material things. But when u pass the whole process of it!! U become stronger, u become tougher than before, and u being prepare to face another bigger challenges ahead. When my crazy mind blewing about wishing of having a Genie beside me.......I do know, for real.....is not a Genie I need, but my special ONE that I need, my special ONE who never leave me....ever!! And....HE* is my Genie....not a real genie, in another word is....my only God.

Entah untuk keberapa kalinya.......saking seringnya...kantor gua mati lampu...AGAIN!!!!!!!! Can u imagine, in a week...lights off in 3 days within 5 hours at least....!!! WTH!!!!

Well, if u're not in dateline rush like I do....no worries dude, but HEYYY!!!! I'm completely running out of time & have to chase with time which is...limited!!!! We all limited by....Time....

1 day is 24 hours, 8 hours normally we should working out our tasks...but becoz of stupid lights off...we wasting 5 hours more!!! And it really makes me piss off....!!!

1. I have a dateline for this Friday (Nov 13), which is my clients gonna come by to office and see the whole project I've done to them. Prewedding Album design (40 pages), 2 Canvas, Photo Frames Display for their D Day.

2. There 50 photos I have to edit, which is I can't do that on 5 minutes!!! Each photos can takes 20 minutes for editing. And as perfectionist, I want everything is perfect & flawfless....of course, it takes more time.

3. I have to prepare the print material in this week...yes, THIS WEEK! COz printing process need 2 weeks & the client demand us to prepare the album on their wedding day.

4. I have limited time, limited power....in this situation, sometimes I'm thinking to have a genie!! Only a genie can makes it all done only in a blink!

I'm not affarid with all their request....all request are welcome....but I'm affraid in this rush & limited times, the result is not as I expected coz I''ve trying to give my best....Any request are welcome...but please give me time....and please...no more blackout!!!!

Hwaaaahhhhhh.....it's been a loooong time I'm not posting this blog...  =p Well, most of all...I'm losing my mood to write, 2nd is...don't have much time to update this blog...so, Welcome Back Nad-nad!!! =)

It began with a message on Facebook from my lovely friends Nana asked me & some of my college mates to met up on Sunday, Nov 8. And I said yes to her invitation...coz I'm hoping lots of my colleges mates on same class or other classes will came... and on that day, TARA!!! Only 5 peoples join!! (-_-)! Me, Nana, Yulia, Petris, Andreas. *I'll introduce them later =)*

But, it doesn't makes our excitement gone...contrary, we all so happy to met each other!!


@ Sushi Tei. Up Left: Me, Up RIght: Nana, Down Left:  Petrissia, Down Right: Yulia

We all one almamater (class of 1999) on college at Trisakti, we all took Design as our major. A little bit difference between me Nana & Petris, me & Nana are a schoolmates from 2nd grade til high school...!!! So we've been together for....more than 10 years!!! ^_^ WOwooo...udah bisa bikin pesta emas neh..... =p With Petris, me-Nana & her also a schoolmates but she's not quite long studyed in the same school with us, only a couple of years. But three of us took a Design college together...But we missed 2 firends here, Irena & Joana, coz when me & Nana on college...they're also our college mates & we're in a 1 group!!! Hahahaha...we've been through a lots of hard times together, full with crazy-awful-joyful-messy memories!! Masa2 ospek, tugas MG 24, Seminar & tentu saja....TA!!!

Yulia is our college mates from another class, me & Nana are one class, Petris separated into another class too. But me-Nana-Petris-Irena-Joana get closed to her at the end of our college...kita mulai deket pada saat2 menjelang TA.

Actually after we've graduated, me & Nana mostly spend time together. Me & Nana is very rarely to spend time with Petris-Iren-Jo becoz...Petris has moved out in Cengkareng (Duta Garden precisely...so it's hard for us to meet up). Iren already happily married & had 2 babies that she can't leave,also she lived in Bogor... *_*. Joana, she moved to UK with her husbadn after their marriage....she's the most far away from all of us.... (-_-)!

The point is, all of us has been busy with our own life after we've graduted & we're not belong together just like when we're still college. It's normal like people die, people born, people meet, people separate....it's a wheel of life. All of us move on...reaching for each dreams & live the life as it should be...

And when we met up last Sunday, all of us are still the same....the same nice friend I have knew in my life...the changes is only our appearance & it's great!!! Yulia with her new look which is....awesome!! Now she's smiling a lot than the last time I met her...that's great!! Petris who stayed pretty...Nana who always look gorgeous...Andreas who look more neat & tidy than the last time we met him on college!! Ah, forgot to tell u about this guy....Andreas is our senior from almamater 1997, he's so damn talented...he's a painter, artsy, what else can I say....he's amazing with his artworks!!! And we happy with his new look, his old look is soooooo mess up!! HAHAHA!!! Long hair, ponytail, dingy shabby shirt & pants like a homeless!! =D Well, it's a trademark look for Design student in our campus....

We share our lifes while we never meet each other...I met Nana on last March when she's got a hospitalization because of typhus on hospital, I met Yulia since...last year? I met Petris since...2 years ago?? I met Andreas since............I'd graduted...on 2003!!!!! o_O

Coz, we never meet again for a very quite long time....we're being crazy took a pictures!!! =p Andreas who become our sudden photographer got dizzy to heard our yelling & complaining & asking him to took more pictures....!! OH MY.......but we do had a great time together...!!!

One thing never changes is....all of them still a good friend of mine, maybe we rarely to spend time together...maybe we don't meet everyday...but we knew that, they will always there for u & listen to u...whenever u call...whenever u need, we're always there. ..

Can u GUESS how much is the price of this pump shoes?? *leave a comment please* =p

I really don't have any plan to bought this pump shoes, it's totally a accident...a pleasure accident I called it! =) 

So it begins with an appointment to met up with my cousin, which is I don't met her again since Dec '07 when I went to Bali & stayed on her place. So, we'd arrange time to met up at Pluit Village *a mall nearby my house*. While waiting my cousin, of coz....I'm hanging around on department store and looking around on women shoes area, suddenly....I don't know why, my eyes are attracted by a shoes corner on my left sides while I'm walking around and......I'm going there....and this is what I found....and more surprising if u know how much I spend for this pump shoes....

Yes....this is the price I paid: Rp. 29.950,-
The real price is: Rp. 379.000, after discount --> Rp. 59.900 and more discount 50%!!! Menurut loe, ini pump shoes udah diskon berapa persen?? Ahahaha....I really not good on counting =p

Pas gua liat di etalase gua gak liat ada tanda diskon 50%, jadi gua pikir harganya Rp. 59.900,-.....ternyata pas gua bayar di kasir & gua keluarin duit Rp. 60.000,- orang kasirnya balikin Rp. 10.000, gua bingung...knapa dibalikin? Orang kasirnya bilang Rp. 50.000 aja...ternyata dari Rp. 59.900 diskon lagi 50%!!! Gua sok cool aja di hadapan kasirnya, padahal sih gua dah cengo2....dalam hati gua bilang:

WHAAAAAAAAT?????!!??
jadi pump shoes gua itu kalo dibulatkan Rp. 30.000,- !!!!! This is the cheapest shoes I ever had...!!!!! But the quality still good, ibaratnya....lo beli Nine West dengan harga kaki lima....WOW! Ajaib!! =)

YEHAWWWW!!! =)

It's quite a long I bought this Green Pump Shoes, about 2 weeks ago...when the electricilty was shut down for the 3rd time if I'm not mistaken. So, some of the crew *which is the gals crew* went out the mall nearby our office. And u know if 5 gals hanging around mall, surely we're not far away from gals thing ^^

After hanging around, I remember to sneak out to one shoes store, waktu libur Lebaran kemaren gua sempet jalan2 di mall ini & liat2 di toko ini & I fall in love when I saw this lovely Green =p...that shoes melt my heart so quick!!! I never fall in love that fast with a man...*WOW! a shoes have powerful charmed to melt my heart than a guy! HAHAHA...no no if Orlando Bloom standing in front of me of coz I will fall down in his arms...apaan seh gua?? ngaco deh!* =p okay back to laptop! Secara libur Lebaran semua toko ada diskon, termasuk juga toko sepatu ini, beberapa sepatu di etalase diskon 20% termasuk si Green Pump Shoes ini. Setelah didiskon, the price is very affordable!! =)

Lalu ketika untuk kedua kalinya gua jalan ke mall itu & iseng2 liat ke toko sepatu itu...masih diskon!!! YAY!!! Tanpa tendeng aling2 mikir 1000x, I grab that Pump Shoes!! Ahh...finally, u're mine! =)

1st, the model: Pump Shoes always grab my attention, very chic-simple-sexy for work or special occasion, depends on the model too. For this model, it's quite match for work or hangout. The heels are medium, not too tall or short. Pas deh tingginya!

2. the colors: it's Green!! And lately I'm in the mood for Green colors, which is lime green or emerald green. I don't have any specific colors to describe me, I just wear colors that looks fit & nice for me. But it's difficult for me to wear yellow, too bright I think *silau men* tapi sebenernya kuning pucat bagus juga...mungkin engga biasa aja kali ya pake warna itu. Mostly I wear white-purple-black and now I'm boring with that colors, especially brown...not anymore for a while...I like brown but too much brown makes me looks dull. Oh I never get bored wear pink =)

3rd, how to wear: wear it with colors that looks nice when u mix & match it. Like neutral colors on tops, if u wear green tone on tops like I wore on the pic (emerald green on cardigan, pale tosca on insider, jeans) I think it would be fine & nice bcoz all in green tone. But u can mix it with a green bags or purse. Green scarf or syal. Green accessoris while u wear a neutral colors on top. But anyway it just a small tips from me, hope it helps =)

Will collect some other green clothes/ bags...ahaha...never enough for this one!!! ♥♥

No...no....I'm not gonna discuss about that movie here, I even don't watch it yet... :) But I'm sure, all of us pursue this one thing...Happiness! 

What is Happiness? What is Success?

For all of us, we have many perception about this 2 things. U happy if, u married? Have a perfect bf/ gf? U are CEO of a company? U are super rich like Hilton's family? U have a perfect family? or anything else...? U name it...!

On my last saturday night, I have a chit chat with my friends and...one of my friends said : " gua punya apa? Mobil Avanza doank, si A udah bawa Xtrail..." and bla bla bla. One of my friends have a small business in fashion retail & he built up since 2003 til now, and I know how hard he's survive his business til present, he start it all with ZERO & I think it's amazing! When u work so hard to maintain your own business and it still exist til now without any help from outside *include parents*. Different with people are born wealthy like Paris Hilton, is Paris rich? Of coz we all know yes she is, becoz.....she's a Hilton! Who is Hilton? Her parents whose owner of Hilton Hotel kingdom. So, basically...is Paris truly rich in another meaning? No, she's rich becoz of her parents.

Some of people like Paris Hilton are proud & has no big deal using their parents wealth, some of those are not from family like Hilton has to fight so damn hard *istilahnya kerja keras mati2an sampe darah bercucuran, udah bukan pake keringat lagi* from zero to hero...from have nothing til have everything. Which one make u proud?

I said to my friends: " yang penting lo punya tu Avanza dari hasil kerja keras lo sendiri, bukan dari duit bo-nyok lo..." I just trying to open his eyes about what he's already achieve of all this time. It doesn't matter if other people have a fancy car, but the point is...how u get it...?

Sometimes I wondering with people who keep complaining when they already have what I wanna have...but back again I realised, it's a normal thing...people nature is never satisfy with everything.

Only with grateful with our life, that's the only way we know...what I have...? If we never grateful, u never know that u have so many....I know it's easy to say, but sometimes the fact not said so...coz I've been there & done that. I used to always never satisfy with my life, but it makes me more distress, it won't solve the problem. When I grateful & realised how much I have in my life now, life seems more easier...& delightful. Sometimes u don't have to see the material of what u have, sometimes things un-material are more priceless than money.
