那些年，我們一起追的女孩 (You are the Apple of My Eye)

"Adolescence is like a heavy rain. Even though you catch a cold from it, you still look forward to experiencing it once again"- You are the Apple of My Eye.


Watching this movie, simply brought me back to few years ago.. when I was still a high school student..

Looking back..

Recalling those days..

"Friendship.."














There was a moment, when I felt so lucky.. I was never alone.. I had friends, no.. not only friends, I had best friends..
Best girl-friends.. and best boy-friends..
They were always there whenever I need them..
I could tell them anything that bothers me..

I could see..

laughter..

happiness..

and trust..


"Relationship.."















There was a moment, when I blushed.. waiting for his text and phone call..


"Friendship" and "Relationship"
It was simply most teenager wish to have during her high school..
and I had it..

It was at the other moment.. when we realised that we shouldn't mess up "friendship" and "relationship"..
It was when.. your "relationship" would destroy all "friendship" that u have had built, and vice versa..
The moment when you had to choose one of them..
Either "friendship" or "relationship"..


And so it came to the other moment, when I felt I was alone..

I had no one to trust anymore.. I had no one to share my burden with..

I see..

betrayal..

disappointment..

and tears..









Till the other moment, I see..











forgiveness.. =)

Nail Arts Fever.. XD

Heyyy..

I have just done applying nail polish on my fingers..

To begin the post..

I've brought all my nail polish collection from Indonesia, since nobody will use it if I leave it there..
Most of my nail polish are in pastel colour, and my mom doesn't like those colours..
So I decided to bring it here.. and 2 years has passed.. and the nail polish are still usable!
XD

I rarely use nail polish here, I don't know..
Maybe one of the reasons is :
"I like to play with my nail when I'm listening to lecturer or while I'm revising"

LOL
In conclusion, I always end up having short and ugly nails!

However, few weeks ago I went out with Mei Yen and Amanda for short catch-up session, shopping, etc.. and we talked a lot about doing nail arts etc.. Moreover, we bought new OPI nail polish at scape-orchard.. and some more from The Face Shop..

This is my latest collection of nail polish
Taaadaaaaa..
















Yup, and since that -catch up and shopping session- with them, I started to do nail arts..
It's very very difficult, especially when doing it on my right fingers..
I need more practice!




















I like the french manicure the most..
I did it for my graduation ceremony..
and last for 2 days only..
hahaha..


Okay..
I'll stop here..

See yaa.. ( ^^)/

Made a decision..

Hellooo..

I love to have long hair, and I don't like to have a hair cut.. mostly I'll just trim it when the shape is already messy..

This time I really have no choice..
I'm having a quite serious hairloss..
='(

So I decided to have it cut..
A picture taken 1 night before I have my hair cut..
and.. Voillaaaa..
It's shorten..

Well.. you might not consider this as 'short' hair..
but, to me.. this is the shortest hair I have for the past few years..
>.<

Well, I have no choice..
I would rather see my hair short, than seeing my hair falling..
Thanks God, my hairloss is getting better now..
MUCH BETTER..
wiiiii.. \(^^)/

With Love,

Hellooo..
It's another update..
It's the beginning of December.. and I LOVE DECEMBER..
\(^o^)/
Yaaaayyy..

I love Christmas atmosphere..
and my friends will visit me in the next few weeks.. so excited.. XD

OK..
I began this month by going to lecture as usual..
My class ended at 11.30 and I decided to go to Takashimaya to get a gift for Chanel's first birthday!
Chanel is my niece.. I remember a year ago I rushing to the hospital to see her after finishing my stats exam.. and 1 year has passed.. time really flies..

Chanel and me, 1 December 2010.. at Thompson Hospital..

I was very confused, whether to get toys, clothes, or any other things for her..
After eliminating other choices, I decided to get a pair of baby Mickey and Minnie dolls..

They are very cute, aren't they?
Chanel and Chelsea loves them very much.. XD
Chelsea hugs Mickey when she's sleeping, and Chanel hugs Minnie.. (~^^)~~(^^~)


Then.. we celebrate Chanel birthday 2 days after..when everyone is home..
While waiting for the birthday-baby-girl, we decorate our christmas tree..
tadaaa~~~

Balloons.. I was so scared b'cause Chanel was so excited with those balloons, and I could sense that the balloons might explode anytime.. >.<"

*Chelsea was scared too.. =p*

Chanel with her new dress and shoes.. and her presents!
She looks like a princess.. so adorable.. (^,^)
and Chelsea, of course, she kept on posing everytime.. hahaha..

Next, here is it..
The custom for celebrating 1st birthday..
Ask the baby to crawl and pick one thing that she likes..
Each things has symbolic meaning, but I'm not sure what the meanings are.. =p

and Chanel chose red eggs.. She took only 1 at the beginning..
Then when she saw all of us clapping hands, she took another egg..
We ask her to do this three times..
For the second and third time, she took calculator..
It's my calculator anyway.. =p

Next, singing happy birthday songs, photo taking, candle blowing, and cake cutting!

"Happy birthday to you.. happy birthday to youuu~~~"

Bottom-left : "don't cut my cakeee.. ToT"

Unwrapping her present.. yayy..
so happy..


Happy birthday Chanel..
We loves u..
(^3^)

It was a great beginning of December..
wish more great days ahead.. =D

Some updates for the past few months

Hello.. it's been few months after my last post, isn't it..?

I've been doing quite a lot of things recently..
So, I came back to Singapore after my short holiday in my hometown on 13th June, arrived home (Singapore) at around 5 pm.. and attended my bridging lecture at 7..

It was very tiring since I need to attend both DMS sem 5 and bridging course at the same time.. I had class from 12pm-3pm for DMS and 7pm-10pm for bridging, everyday.. @@?

The worst part was I need to finish my assignments as well.. I had bridging exams on 26th July and 28th July, and I had 3 due dates for assignments on 29th July.. Thanks to God that I've past through that week..

I remember one of my friends posted this on facebook:
"Within a month, we did 2 exams, 6 assignments, and 1 presentation, we did it!"
Yeahhh.. we finally did it..

Well, it was not the end, since I need to take my final exam after that..
It was very stressful..
I was taking business law, information system for business and macroeconomics that time..
Again, thanks God for guiding me during the exams..
=D

I'm no longer a diploma student..
I am a degree student.. A sophomore.. =)

Trip to Pulau Babi and Pulau Burung

Hello..
5th June 2011, I arrived at Belitung at around 7.10 in the morning..
I was very tired since I didn't have enough sleep the day before..
But still, I join the trip to Pulau Babi (Err.. Pig Island) and Pulau Burung (Bird Island)..
So, my parents told me about this trip before I booked the flight, they would be going with the cycling group at Belitung (my hometown..), so if I wanna join, I had to take the earliest flight from Jakarta to Belitung..
Well, they're cycling group, but it doesn't mean we went to those island by bike, okie..? hahaha..

Okie.. so my parents and I went to Tanjung Kelayang beach at around 11.30 and met the rest there..
It was raining!! But we were still going..
All of us took a boat to Pulau Babi..
and this is Tanjung Kelayang, taken from the boat..
On the way, my mom's friend told us about this "Pulau Pasir" (in English: Sand Island)
She said when the tide is high, we can't see this island.. interesting, I've never heard about this.. hehehe..
We kept on eating and eating during the journey..
and finally.. we reached!!
So this is it, Pulau Babiii..
Well.. shame on me, I never knew that there is an outbound area in my hometown..
and I saw it there.. at Pulau Babi..
Beside this outbound area, I also saw this..
and these turtles.. they're cute right..? =p

Next.. we moved on to Pulau Burung (Bird Island)..
picture taken on the way..

Before reached Pulau Burung, we went to see a fishpond near the island..
this is it.. sorry, not so clear.. =(
Well.. I could see fish outside the pond as well.. so pretty.. XD
Okieee.. we reached to Pulau Burung (Bird Island)..
If I'm not wrong, the name Bird Island comes from the stones that look like a bird.. and the stones belong to this island.. This is me with the stones.. The right one is the bird's head.. and the left one is its wings..

another two pictures taken there..

It was tiring, but fun!! Hahaha.. I remember my last trip to those Island was more than 10 years ago.. I enjoyed the breeze there.. the smell of sea.. the seashell.. everythiiinngggggg..
I love my hometown.. very much.. =)

Jakarta, 4th June 2011 ^^

Helloooo..

I went back to Indonesia last on 4th June..
It has been 1 and a half year after the last time I went back..
I miss Indonesia.. miss my hometown.. miss my parents.. miss my friends..

So, I spend 1 day on 4th June 2011 in Jakarta, went to meet my friends there..
Thanks to Lenny, Sherly, and Windy for picking me up from the airport..
Let me tell you, three of them started to bully me from the first second we met..
>.<"
They pretended they didn't see me and just walked awayyy..
*chill.. chill..*

OK.. From airport, we went to Mediterania Apartment (Lenny's) and drop my luggage there..
oh yeaa.. we bought lots of snacks and drinks from supermarket below the appartment..
I remember they said I looked like a person who just came out from a forest.. since I kept on saying.. "wooahhh.. I never see this there.. wooahhh.. It's been a long time since the last time I eat/drink this.."
well.. I just took that as a compliment..
lol..
ok then..

first.. we ate siomay while waiting for the rest to come to the apartment..


and.. finally.. they arrived.. (took picture, lol)


then, the journey began..
we went to Taman Anggrek Mall, which just a stone throw from Mediterania..
we walked there and went to BAKMI GM (my favourite noodle in Jakarta)

This is what I ordered (noodle with chicken and mushroom):

and this is my favourite fried dumplings:

After that.. we went to meet Hito (Lenny's boyfriend)..
ehhmmm.. sweet new couple.. XP
*no picture..LOL*

At around 3-4 pm, my male-friends (NOT my boyfriend, I'm still single, hahaha) came..
They had just finished their lecture at that time..
Then, from Taman Anggrek Mall, we moved to Central Park Mall, which located between Taman Anggrek Mall and Mediterania Aparment..
There.. we went shopping at Strawberry, bought something at Gramedia Bookstore, and we ate pizza for "early dinner" at Dominoes..

After that, we planned to go for Karaoke at Limelight (10 minutes by taxi from Central Park).. but unfortunately, it's fully booked.. the only one available was at 11pm.. and it was a medium size room, which only for 8 people (there were 13 of us..),
so we decided to go to Strawberry Cafe..
Just like the name, all the decorations all full of strawberry, even the menus..
Anyway.. the menu were very confusing, they have super weird name for each food/beverage..
The most interesting thing at this Cafe is, we can play board games..
And we can put on powder on our friend's face when he/she lose the game..
So.. this is it..

The first game.. (Slap the Flies)
The rule is, one person needs to throw the special dices:

So, we just need to multiply the numbers shown on the dices, and find the correct fly, and then SLAPPPPP.. Let me give you an example, when the dices show us 5 and 10, means 5 times 10, we need to find the fly with "50" written on it, and then SLAPPP.. The last person who slaps will get a present.. tadaaaaa.. powder on his/her face.. =p
Oh yeaa.. we slap the flies using this "weapon":


Bored..? Yea.. let's change to another game.. this is "Pisa Tower"
Each person needs to put an effigy on the tower.. then, who drops the effigy will lose..
This game was not so exciting, so we changed to another game..

This is.. what.. I don't know the name.. just called it "Tissue" game.. lol
So, we put 1 ply of tissue at the top of this blue thing, and then each of us has to put one wet bead on the tissue, using a small tongs.. until the tissue is torn.. the person who's holding the tongs when the tissue torn, will lose.. =p

Okieee.. this is the last game..
Well.. I don't remember the name.. but you can see the holes and the swords, right..?
Basically, we just need to stab to any holes on the drum, using the mini sword, and the drum's top must face the face of the person next to you.. and if you choose the "correct" hole, tadaaaaaa..the powder will spurt on your friend's face..

After those games.. We took pictures.. again.. again.. and again.. and I like this the most.. =p


It was about 12 at the night.. and we went home.. all guys went back to their rented rooms..
then all girls went to Mediterania Aparment, they all stay overnight there..
We talked until 3am.. and then we woke up at 4am.. because I had to arrived at airport by 5.50.. my flight was at 6.20 in the morning.. >.<
Thanks to Lenny, Sherly, Cecillia and Monica for sending me to the airport.. =)

Ok.. I was very happy that time.. really.. >.<
Although we didn't see each other for 1 and a half year.. and even 2 years with some..
At that time, I feel that we still meet everyday..
You know why..? Because no one changes.. =)
You are all still the same.. Speak in the same way.. Play in the same way.. Tease me in the same way.. and even still call me with the same nickname..
I really appreciate everything.. picking me from airport.. letting me stay overnight.. put aside your assignments and everything only to meet me on that day, and sending me to airport early in the morning..
I'm so touched.. =')
Thank youuuuu..
I love you all..
