Turning 22

November always be my favorite month of the year. Simply because I was born in November. This year I'm turning 22. I always remind myself whenever I celebrate my birthday "Not just a year older, but a year better" My entire life, I enjoyed celebrating birthday (may be I'm still young). I can't sleep at night because of excitement, and woke up earlier enjoy the whole day to the fullest.

I've said so many times (perhaps not much in my blog) about how I really cherish 2013. As many things, mostly good things happened to me along the year.

Just in time, bf showed up and plan everything perfectly. I must admit he really succeed surprising me with all the presents such as cake, self-cook noodle, teddy bear (later we named Mr. Bow Bow), 10 roses in which each flowers hold a message, box of happiness contains many kind of my favorite chocolates, letters that make me cry, and a ring followed by the "will you marry me?". Well, it was his personal proposal, a symbol that we are strengthen our commitment and relationship. It's not as sweet as it is in movie, because it was more beautiful than that. I always dreaming about how I smiled, nod my head and softly whisper "I do" but in real life, that's just too hard to get. Because I was frozen and stiffly handed my finger. However it was lovely.

please ignore my super thick eyebag!! 

Thankyou darling for everything :) 

I feel grateful as there are many friends congratulate me with wishes and greetings. I spent my day with lovely bf and Vina, my ex-housemate. She's the one who introduce me to bf. I'm also pleased she finally found someone who cares for her after all this time. "Congratulate dear, you deserve the best. Longlast! :)"

My charming smile *lol*

After meal, we went to karaoke and sing all the night.. Although I didn't celebrate it with my family and besties doesn't mean they didn't take part in this historic day. They did send me their best wishes.

In the end, I would like to thank everyone who remember my birthday and made it memorable. 

THANKYOU! :)

Season of Fireworks

Some memories will never fade. No matter how far the time has flies. Accidentally play old song in my playlist. Soon it bring back the good old times. A friendship I has built over these years. Since I was in elementary school, I made friend with someone call Cindy, whom later break the record 'the oldest friendship I've ever had'. She has similar posture as mine (except I'm now getting fatter), we adore the same idols, comics, movies, songs, boyband, and we just can't get enough of HEELS!

I don't know why, I missed her so much at this moment. Definitely not because of the song (that now I keep playing over and over again). Last time I met her was when I had CNY holiday which was almost a year. We still keep contact though. And she's now staying in China while pursuing her study. Back then, we shared a lot of memories.

Once, we wrote letter to each other like everyday when we sat together in class. We attached small gifts, like hairpin, fancy stickers, unique eraser, etc. So cute, right? That was the first moment I 'really made' friend with someone. Even we didn't sit together for the next few years, nothing changed. We still talked and hang out sometime. Unlike many other classmate whom will become strangers once the sitting chart was changed.

My final year as elementary student, I reunited and sat with her again. Inspired by the phenomenal F4, a former Taiwan boyband who were so popular in early 2000, we named our group Fantastic Girl (me, Cindy and Evie - later joined because she sat with us in class). I know, it sounds lame and disgust, but truth is we were quite 'well known' that time. *lol* We even sang their soundtrack in ladies room, recorded in my phone (sadly it was removed and I lost the file). We always together all the time from school to courses. We skipped English course and spend our time at market buying fashion accessories, eating and chilling. Till one day, Cindy was caught by his father.

Graduated from elementary doesn't mean we become more mature. Instead, we become wilder (in this case, please don't think about some slut teenagers). We acted like celebrity at school. We wear the same hairpin, headband, bracelet, and earrings. We had similar hairstyle. We bring hand fan wherever we go. Despite that we were not bitch because we never bully and underestimate other people. Look back at our journey, instead of ashamed I'd rather found it funny. Because that was part of my juvenile delinquency adventures.

I never believed I've grown this far. After all these years, I've become more concern about anything, and I should admit I lost half of my confidence (rather called it shameless *lol*). Life must go on babe! :)

Here the song that bring back all these memories 

Plaza Senayan Palm Award 2013

This should be posted long time ago. And has been save as draft for two months. Blame me on my laziness to blog. As I wrote in my previous post, I joined Plaza Senayan fashion competition and be one of the finalists, I attended five days quarantine of Palm Award 2013. Meeting new people whom adore fashion, and made friend with them. It's my very first time joining fashion competition, bet you can imagine how excited I am. Luckily I have Wiha with me, because she's one of the finalist too. I think five days passed so fast. Well, It's a little tired at first, because you know I just get back from bf's hometown before heading for quarantine. But I do enjoy every moment, and I'd rather call it a holiday instead of quarantine.

See how I arrange all my stuffs.

On our third day, we visited Textile Museum in Jakarta. Instead of listening to the guide showing us types of Batik, we were being camwhore around the museum. 

With the forever bestie - Wiha

With the boy Whempy - Ilonkz and Rian

Keep calm and crossed the legs

And comes the D-day! At the backstage, snap snap and snap!

Well, you can hardly see the dress is way to short for the model. I felt so disappointed about that. Guess I have to work harder in the next competition. Sorry for the image quality, that is all I have.

I am joining another competition, wish me luck ! :)

2013

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2013!! *sorry for being late*
My wishes for this year still remain the same. May everything goes well, stay pretty and always be happy! :)

I celebrated new year in KL with family and my ex-housemate Iboo, whom also my besties. Spent four days away from Jakarta. 

On the way to countdown!

Happy new year!! :D

Who knows on the very first day of new year, our car got hit at the back. Caused 'small' damages but 'still luckily' everything solved without any fight. And a lil attraction from my besties to begin 2013. *lol*
Here some snap with mom and sister!

Noodle I've been dying for~

I admit I am a terrible diet person. MEAT is so hard to resist. This is just another outing with Marisa & Tiffany. We are truly carnivore!!!

Legally 21

Yesterday was my birthday. Yeah! Im officially 21. Like finally :)

My wishes remain the same. May all my family and friends stay healthy and lovely. If there's an addition, it'll be my career. I hope everything will go smoothly years ahead. Not to mention a simple love life :)

So, we had a little celebration yesterday. Pizza party with my colleagues. And a 'probably brunch' at Kitchenette with my besties Wiha and Marissa.

Place is quiet fancy, the food doesn't taste so good, but service is satisfy.

Thanks Mar for the present :*

Happy birthday to me! =)

Thanks for the cake! :)
