Compromise.

Last Sunday, when i "accidentally" go shopping, and spending a few hundred rupiahs..for a several time..so, we had this little compromise about me spending too many on those things..started from today, i only can buy 3 clothing , including pants, shirt, skirt, jacket, coat, anything as long as it's clothes..and only 3 accessories, means, hat, shoes, necklaces, earring, bracelet, brooch, ring, etc..seems pretty easy when we made that compromise, but in the same day, i already buy 2 shirts, and a pair of jeans, which mean.., can i still buy another 3 clothing this month..??its not march yet right..??

3 in 1.

since i havent got the chance to blogging since last saturday, so i decided to put all three days story in one post..i got so many story to tell you..and lots of things happend to me during the weekend..so, lets start from last saturday..

Saturday, February 27th 2010..

so today, im going to pasar baru, to buy some equipment im gonna need at the beauty school, i

find everything i need but the curler and straightener.., i find its pretty hard to find any fashion eyelashes at pasar baru, but i still find it though..even i can found the La Tulipe equipment for body painting, its not the best, but it the cheapest brand i can find, and the best part was, i can find the petite eyelash curler, i've been trying to find in places, but i just cant found any, but today, when i saw it, i just buy it without thinking twice..LOL..and i also bought some glitters, i was being told to brings some glitters on monday (which in this case today..) but turns out, that we didnt even touch it..LOL..and i also buy lots and lots of fake eyelashes, just in case ill need them, anyhow, i have to use it every time i put a make up on my model at school, so would be better if i have some more in stock..and i dont have to go to pasar baru, every time i need eyelashes, that what im trying to avoiding..

after a long shopping at pasar baru, we go straight up to MKG, its been awhile since im not eating at Burger King, and today, we're finally eat at BK..i usually ordered Black Pepper but today somehow i'd prefer Chick 'n Crisp, cause the last time i ate that, it

was nice, a bit crunchy yet tasty..sorry for the blurry image, i was forget to set the camera..and after a "big" dinner, we continue to

walk along the shops, trying to find niven one or two pair of suit pants, and a shirt maybe, we've tried lots of suits pair and shirt, but since it was too

expensive, so we reconsidered it and trying to find any pants cheaper,

we ended up at G2000, the had a promo, buy 2 get 1 free, so niven bought 2 pair of pants and get a free shirt, all cost 999.800 LOL...but he's not the only one who shops till drop..lol..i also buy some..just cant resist it..just a common top i can use daily..

oh! talking about shirt, i almost forgot to tell you about the shirt tragedy..back in pasar baru, when we done with the shopping, we heading to the parking lot, where we left our car unattended and insecure..(pretty much..) there's a quite huge group of bajaj, and we had to go thru them, and when i trying to pass through the last one, somehow the cars on my left trying to grazed me or something, so accidentally it push me to go closer to bajaj, suddenly.. "

breekk" the bajaj's bumper (if you can call it bumper..) ripped my shirt..and here's the pic..

poor..the shirt have a really good material, even when i bought that shirt, somehow, i just knew it, that someday, somehow, something gonna cause this kind of problem..so i trying to figure

out how to manipulate it, so i still able to wear it..so i come up

with this lace things, since im also working on my D-I-Y jeans using the same lace, so i thought im just gonna use the same lace for my shirt, it still not done yet, cause i still hadnt time to working on it, but ill assure you, itll be done by end of the week..

Sunday, February 28th 2010..

this could be my last posted on february..i was wake up very early today, my mom asked me to give her a favor, she had this party, of my dad's boss' so, she want me to do her make up..and after i finished with her make up, there's no way for me to go back to sleep, cause i had an encounter appointment in wallstreet at 12 o'clock, so i decided to make my jeans look better..first thing first..

1. LOL..this is nothing..really..it just im starving that time..so i took a bowl and musli..LOL..newsflash, ive been eating this musli like, more than 6 months, and its really works for people who on diet..musli only gives you 180 kcal..they had lots of flavor, but since i love chocolate then i choose the chocolate one, but if you trying another else, they had a lower calories on it..and it really helps you to poo...hehehe..

2. and these are all you really needs, a pair of jeans, any color, i do the green one already, and now the red one, since its the only colored jeans i had left..LOL..bayclin, or if you have any other whitener, it might work..toothbrush, dont use the new one..a bowl, in this case, i used a plastic bowl, and not to forget a stool..now pour the bayclin into the plastic bowl, and try to scrub the jeans with the toothbrush an bayclin, do it patterned..but dont give too many bayclin, or itll loosen up the jeans..bayclin work differently in jeans, it depends on the jeans, so try to scrub it in a very small area at first to see how the bayclin works on your jeans..

3. so far this is the result, if you'd want to stop in here, its alright, just leave it dry, then wash it cleanly..and the next morning, it'll ready to wear..or maybe you can still follow my next step, a little bit tricky and need lots of patience, but the result were better..more different, and unique..

4. laces, if you already have one, you can use it, but match it with your jeans color, if you only have a little pieces, you can still use it, but with a different way, you have to play patchwork with those laces, in my case, i want to applied a black lace..a needle and a thread, fabric scissor, and lace scissor, if you dont have lace scissor, its okay to use a fabric scissor or a common scissor, but it would be a little bit tricky for sure..

and here's the result..hope you like it..

back view

that's my new jeans..yaayyy..love it...!!!after a quite challenging doing the jeans..i also do some browsing through youtube, and i found this funny video..

ouch! this is my first vlog..and its quite difficult at first, especially for this video, it was originally from youtube, but the publisher set the video somehow, so there's no embed html..so i have to use zamzar to download and inverted it into .avi at once..so, enjoy my first hard work then..

Monday, March 1st 2010..

My first blog on this month..!!im getting good at this things..yaayyy...so, today would be my first day to do almost all my activities without niven..yeap..!!he's been accepted to this company, PT. Parasindo Pratama..its a paper company.. CONGRATS DEAR..!! just remember to do you best, be more on time, and discipline, and more opinionated person..no more playing around, and you'd better banned the manga website and gizmodo..LOL..

so, today i go along with my dad to LPPMS, and i came way too earlier, 2 hours earlier exactly..LOL, its even still closed..!!observed working people busy pacing back and forth..looking me back like never saw a girl before..LOL..but im cool..thanks to ciggy to accompanied me for a couple hours..it's kinda weird though..through the day without niven at all..

LOL..but we met at CCF eventually..

i did quite good at the class today, but my classmate was totally annoying..well..im still cool with it..just have to endure it..so, that's pretty much my story..hehehhe...gud luck y'all...

Happy March..!!

Pancious.

today was kind of boring for me, my dad's got a visit from his old high school fellas at home today, so we're sort of stuck in the house during the day..but my big sister and her-future-husband was trying another recipe of tiramisu, since the last one doesnt work whatsoever..they keep failing the old recipe, so they googled another one, and voila..!!still wonder how its taste, but i can tell you till tomorrow..LOL..but i give a clue, they dont mixed the yolk and sugar well enough..LOL..

and around 5 pm, we're finally decided to going out, my mom took her shoes at the shoe maker, and we straight to pancious afterward..

WELCOME TO PANCIOUS!

like always, we use the valet service, that they provide..thanks god they provide such a service or otherwise we have to walk crossing the road..since, the neighbor was sold to..i barely remember the neighbor..LOL..however, we no longer can park at pancious' neighbor..

sorry for the mirror reflection, im just too lazy to get up from my chair..

its pretty crowded tonight, but the service still is as good as ever..have i mention that we ate at

pancious Permata Hijau..?my mom love the ambience here, unlike any other pancious store, the ambience, the service, and also the taste were better in here..

did you notice, the cover on their menu was written, "think pancake, think pancious" or something around that..i considered it as their slogans or something, whatever it is, it doesnt work on me..LOL..they had a good pancake, indeed, but if i think pancake, ill think my pancake at GI..LOL..nevertheless, i still have my favorite food in here, the mushroom fettuccine..just a simple fettuccine, with loads of mushroom and lettuce, and decorated with fried mushroom, which the best fried mushroom i've ever taste, juicy yet crunchy as well..if you can see, there's two picture of the fettuccine, the small one is the one that they put on the menu..not so much different, eh..??only they do some manipulation on the fried mushroom..LOL..so far, i still like it and love it..

bon appetite!!

after a delicious diner at pancious, we go straightaway to PS..which is still boring..LOL..

Intruding.

a couple days ago i bought this fur skirt at Zara, it was actually a sale product since last year, LOL, but niven was practically complaining every-time i want to buy that skirt, and finally, last wednesday or thursday, not exactly remember, i bought that skirt..!!here's the pic..

you can look at the pic, it was totally on sale..LOL..yeap..after i saw the price tag, i was actually very thankful, i wasnt buy at the first time i saw this skirt..LOL...

here is "love udon" LOL..niven found it accidentally when we had a lunch or dinner ya..barely remember, but it was at sushi tei, it was real cute..so i took i picture of it..

further update of CCF.

have you noticed, that the sky was amazingly beautiful recently..i even captured a few photos i can show you..

the photos was taken at the bypass on my way to CCF, with my lovely digicam olympus..right

at 17.50 ish we left from MKG 3, and the traffic was actually

pretty kind today, we even get at CCF half an hour earlier, enough

time for me to smoke..even though we still need to

take the shortcut..

there's one thing that kept me wondering, basically, CCF has their own parking lot, but it was for ambassadors and staffs only..so,

where did they put the student's car..??the building right next to

them, it was, eh-..owned by a military something, i guess..yeap..and it's only fits for..around 6-7 cars maybe..so we

have to walk to get onto the CCF..

which is kind of silly for me..why dont they provides the parking lot for their student also..??its not a big deal after all, as long as we can leave our car safely..

And by the way, if you come to CCF, you can see this cool advertisement machine at the "aisle"..i really like this machine,

maybe its a common way to do all the commercial and promotion, but i really like this one, covered with a

black acrylic and the lamp-letter..it was nice..Gee!!i forgot to took a picture at the cafeteria..!!it's a day-off tomorrow, so maybe i'll take a picture by monday..

its only tooks me a ciggy, then the previous class was over, and its my time..!!here is how my class look in my point-of-view..(sorry for the blurry image, she just can sit still..) and, here's my teacher every monday and thursday, meet, Mademoiselle Alissa, you may call her Mademoiselle or Alissa, but dont Madame..she said..LOL..(sorry for the blurry image..again..haha, really not good in photography i guess..) right when we about to start the class, Alissa was asking us to stand up, and walk to the mediatheque..(library in english..) so, we had a quick tour at the library..

this is the overall of CCF's library, as you can see, there's a headphone on the table, it was wireless, which is very cool for such a courses..and its sennheiser..!!you know how much it cost dont you..??!! (you can check the exact type and the price for each headphone here) and they provides, like 4 of them..you can use them to hear TV5 monde, which the television is already set on that particular channel..so its remain silent at the library..cool, eh..??!!! they have lots of category in their library, you can also

read a french novel on the second floor..i really loves the total decoration..and the library up there..i really wish i could have one like that in my bedroom..LOL..it would be lovely..

and when we go into the front part of the library, and there is another part i really love about, there are these pushpin art right behind the

front desk.. (pardon the lousy chair, i took all the photo in a hurry..)well, maybe i will make the pushpin art on my bedroom wall..LOL..with a difference picture for sure, my face for example..LOL..wonder who made it, meanwhile, why dont i ask them..LOL..oh, ill ask them at monday..

and here's the computer lab, pretty much like wallstreet's speaking center, but in CCF they only allowed you to be there for one hour per day..(if i wasnt wrong..) it works equally with the one at wallstreet, you do listening through the computer, you do some test at the computer, and maybe even you do speaking with the computer as well..and on the left side, you can see the CD or DVD's (dont really know which one) racks, you can borrow them also, with the member card for

sure, if you're a student in CCF, all you have to do is bring your photocopy of identity and two 2x3 photos..but if you are a non-student, i think you have to pay a certain amount to be their member..

after a short trip at library, we finally begun our today's lesson, and i really had fun at the class today, even the class was more cheerful rather than yesterday..or maybe its only become gloomy when Madame Habibah teaching, no offense, but it really is more frustrating when she's teaching us..but its a problem i have to face..

here's some journalistic photography brochure i took from the library..

PS : sorry for the yellowish effect on the brochure picture, my room was basically have a yellow lamp..well..i look more beautiful under the yellow lamp..LOL..JK..

newsflash.

yesterday was my second day in CCF, but since i forgot to bring my digi cam with me, i couldnt take a couple of picture i can post here..but i'll make sure ill bring it with me tonight, and keep you up with the update..

FIRST.

Today, 23rd of February, my first day in CCF..im really excited at first..but it didnt work as i hope before..lol..but thats life..

so, when i stepped my feet on CCF at first, i feel lacking of enthusiasm..already...and when i see at the cafeteria..even more lack of enthusiasm..and when i sit at the cafeteria bench...totally pessimistic in no time..so i took a cigar and start to smoking..(again..uugghh!!)

first, never saw CCF this crowded before..okay, ive seen it once when i took DELF test..but in a good way..but this time..they held some kind of photography exhibition by Andre Graff (you can also check him out in here) so maybe its become more..swarming..(..??)

at 19.10 pm me and niven get onto the class (which i saw a cockroach one day before, a small one, but still is a cockroach). its quite small for a class, since there's only 10 of us..and we met our classmate here..havent know each other yet, but hopefully they're as fun as my classmate before..

about the class itself, maybe its because i have to start all over again, so its kinda bore me a bit..and plus, this teacher of mine, Mme. Habibah (no comment..) had a very different way of teaching with my old teacher, whom i feel more comfortable with before she start to become very exasperating..so i feels like, i dont want to change the way i speak or understanding, because i already like my own style..and im able to passed DELF A2 with that style of either in speaking and learning..

i have to be at the class for 4 months, with 2 different teacher, which mean, each teacher had their own way of teaching and speaking for sure..about the rest, perhaps i just have to endure it..

oh! have i told you about my make-up-assignment..??LOL..yeap, i got an assignment from my make up school, the due date is tomorrow, and i have to start to working on it from this very second..LOL..

so, wish me luck still....

newest updates.

been a while since my last updates..lol..im really not into this thing..(im still trying though!!)

so, here's a few updates about my life, or to be more exact, my dreams..as i told you before, ive been chasing this dream, about going school in french or london, whatever, the point is i want to take fashion business school..

so, after..7 months (from last july) ive been in a huge idleness, finally, last monday, 15th february, i have started my new activity, which is a make up school..seems trifle for some people, yes..but its more than enough to kept me occupied, not all day, but still adequate for my needs..

about this make up school itself, i was actually planning to join Martha Tilaar but since its over-pricey so i decided to join LPPMS (a.k.a Mustika Ratu) which more affordable for me..maybe there's a huge different between both..but in my particular circumtances, LPPMS suits me the most, not only they're affordable, but they also had a quite short time for learning..so here's a wrap for differences both of them..

Martha Tilaar :

* costs Rp 25.000.000,- (exclude make up and registration fee)

* 4 months of teaching (not sure how many days per week)

* warranty teacher

* international certificate

* everyone knows that graduated from Martha are good

* more well-known

LPPMS :

* costs Rp 7.600.000,- (include make up and registration fee)

* 2,5 months of teaching (3 days per week, 4 hours per day)

* non-warranty teacher

* national certificate

* when you say, you're graduated from LPPMS, what they only ask is "what's LPPMS?"

* remain unknown (doesnt mean to be mean)

thus more or less the difference between both..but considering im joining la salle college by this april, so i have at least 2-2,5 months left, thats why i join LPPMS..however, i always share my experiences in LPPMS class with my mother, and she thought that i should still take Martha Tilaar beauty school..and im perfectly cool with it..LOL..

and that's about make up school..also, this monday, im officially-sooo-gonna join ccf..!!yups..!!they're opening the semi-intensive course..and if only you can see how excited i am..oh!not forget to mention, niven will be join me in this course..!!yeap..!!he's finally learning french..lol..trying to be wee bit romantic i guess..LOL..

about the continuation of la salle..im a bit worry yet enthusiasm..im already filled the registration form, funds were ready, but i havent take toefl test, yet..im a little bit pessimistic in this test, never done some tests like this before, so..maybe im just some sort of nervous or worried too much..i already do some search about toefl test, but i think ill take the test either in Lia or EF..havent ask spectra yet if they have toefl test as well..nevertheless it have to ready by this march so i can enroll and complete the registration procedure..

so far thats my progress in fulfilling my dream..well, thats quite a lot progress, i presume..LOL..

wish me luck, still...
