CASUAL

2012-02-11T05:15:00.000+08:00

Remember when I said I'm so into trousers lately? Well I guess I'm more into pants right now. Since I have nothing else to tell you guys so.. have a great weekend everyone!

BIG AND TALL

2012-02-04T11:00:00.000+08:00

Hi guys! How are you? So I know I've been missing for a week now, it's been a busy and stressful week with all those school documents and all that stuff but I'm glad to be back. Ahhh finally it's Saturday already, seriously this week felt to long to me, sometimes I just want to jump right to weekend when the week days started. I think I'm too excited to start my new English conversation course today so I called them earlier this morning and they told me that the class is not started yet, maybe next Saturday. Since the class is not started, now I don't know what to do on this gorgeous Saturday, haven't called any of my friends though, but I'm just wondering.. do you guys have any suggestions for me to do on weekend? Because I don't want to be dead of boredom on Saturday. And nobody does, right?

UNDERNEATH THE SKY

I had a one night stay with my friends at a resort yesterday. It was so much fun to be able to sleep together and had a really fun late night talk. And what made it perfect was that I watched some of the Sex and the City Season 6 series on tv for the first time in my life. We don't have any cable tv or anything in my current house so I felt so happy when I saw it on tv. Anyway I think my face looks so vibrant here, thanks for the sunscreen!

THE WINDOW

2012-01-14T15:44:00.000+08:00

I think I'm just going to answer some questions you guys asked me the other day now..

What camera do you use?

Seriously it's nothing fancy, I'm using Canon EOS 1000D and Photoshop is my ultimate favorite photo editing program which runs really slowly on my old laptop, I really hope to get a new laptop soon. Maybe for college? Amen for that!

Do you take your photos yourself?

Yes, I mainly use tripod to take my photos. Sometimes photoshoots take a little bit longer for me, to adjust the angle and everything but I think I'm used to it now.

Where actually do you live?

I just live in a regular house in Manado but I like to wander around to take my photos. The yard, warehouse, near my house, my friend's house, basically everywhere that has a great scenery.

Is your last name really "Tuna"?

Hahaha I get this questions quite a lot. Yes, it is. When I was younger I was so embarrassed for having this weird last name but over the years I got used to it. I mean it just sounds right when you say Cliff Tuna and not Cliff something-else.

Where will you continue your education?

Well not to mention that I don't want to answer this question but I just think that telling everyone where I'm going after high school is.. I don't know I just don't like doing it. But fyi I'm not studying abroad, I'm just gonna move to another town for college. It's about 6 months from now and I'm surely gonna make a blog post when I'm already there to let you guys know.

So thank you so much for your questions guys, I definitely enjoy answering all of them. It's fun!

ALL GREEN

2012-01-07T05:31:00.000+08:00

Going to a golf field alone in the morning is experience I will never forget. I never knew that being alone in such a relaxing and green place would feel this good. Seriously I feel freedom and happiness, and besides the weather is still chilly so everything feels nice. I breathe long breath and feel like freshness is filling up my whole body. I was like a crazy kid running and screaming around hahaha. The field is actually very very big, so you can run as far as you want. I think after everything we've been through in life, it is very okay to go to somewhere where you can be alone and just enjoy yourself. This way you can really think about anything or even everything in your life and be thankful for it. Sometimes we just need to be in the perfect place to realize that life is so much beautiful. And it really is. Enjoy your weekend everyone! :)

SOON TO BE MEMORIES

2011-12-29T15:41:00.000+08:00

I've been listening to Auld Lang Syne from Sex and The City movie lately. They played it when Carrie come over to Miranda's house, wearing heels walking on the New York City sidewalks just to see her lonely friend on new year's eve. It's my favorite part of the movie. I always feel so sad when I have to leave things behind and startover again, because I'm a type of person who always build strong relationships with people around me and there are times in my life when I have to leave all the things I've created along the way. I have had a great friendship from elementary school once but then I graduated and then go to junior high school where nobody knows me. But over the years I get along so well with these new people. I remember how does it feel to be a tiny and cute and shy and lonely boy at school but fortunately, like a plant, I grow too. I've been through teen life phases when I was being shy, less shy and then finally not shy at all. Fearful, less fearful and not fearful at all. The point is, people change. But make sure that you change for better, not for worse. Just a few weeks ago, my friends from elemantary school added me on Facebook! Seriously it made me really happy that they actually still remember me, I mean of course there are tons of people who still remember me but these two are the ones who actually want to keep in touch again with me (I couldn't be the one who add them first because I didn't remember their full names). And by the way the reason I'm writing this super long text is because this year is actually my last year in this town, I will be moving to another town next year on July for college. And yes again I have to leave all the things behind. Friends and family. I shouldn't say I'm the only one who's leaving though, because a lot of my friends will be leaving the town for college as well. And I'm not coming home for the first year so next year I will have my very first Christmas and New Year with the new people I haven't meet and know yet.

Back to the very first paragraph, I feel kinda sad because I can't be like the girls from Sex and The City who are always there for each other. And it's just going to be the four of them. Forever. I never had a story like that in my life. And I myself haven't even know where will I be after college, maybe work a couple years there and then move to another town? Or country? Nobody knows. But just so you know, I love adventures and journeys. So if I have to answer my own question why I can't have my own beautiful movie-like story, maybe it's because I'm a type of person who always want something better and better and that requires sacrifice. Let's end this year by saving up all the lessons we've been learning for 12 months and get ready for 2012. Here's my kisses and hugs for all of you! :D

BELATED AND NOT SO SWEET

2011-12-27T20:59:00.003+08:00

So after struggling with my portable internet modem for days, now I can finally resolve the problem. I'm so exhausted now. And I'm so sorry guys, I know some of you may have (or may have not) expected a great Christmas post but seriously I actually have nothing fashion related to show you. I had a beautiful and peaceful Christmas with family and I had a really fun road trip visiting my relatives yesterday. I know I'm late but I still want to say Merry Christmas to all of you here. So yes I'm wearing no pants here, I actually could not find the perfect pants to complete this look so I would rather go pantless than have to ruin everything. I hope you're okay with it (okay?). Well, once again Merry Christmas everyone!

-Cliff

ALL BLACK

2011-12-15T09:00:00.000+08:00

I got a few questions about this blazer. It was actually my mother's but she didn't wear it anymore so I take it and cut the sleeves. I personally like to cut my clothes because that way they can fit me better. I don't believe in store size, sometimes we just have to adjust it our way. And that would be fun or annoying. Well anyway I'm officialy on holiday right now. Ahh I'm so excited! Don't you just love the feeling when everyday feels like Saturday? No pressure, no insecure feeling and of course no homeworks (although I seldom do them anyway). Well happy holiday season everyone, try to sleep and wake up early and say no to insomnia!

P.S.: So yeah as you guys can see I have puffy eyes and crazy hair, it wasn't that crazy actually but I've tried everything to make it look better but nothing changed, so I decided to make it look worse instead.

THE BOWTIE

2011-12-03T17:30:00.000+08:00

Just a outfit I wore in the previous post. The bow doesn't come with the shirt, I patch it up using double tape. It's been a quite long time not wearing short pants and suddenly it felt great much more than I think it would be.

THE TWEED VEST

2011-11-26T01:21:00.001+08:00

Sad story. Last night I was so excited to buy my very first bottle of perfume. I've been lusting for The Body Shop White Musk for men for months now. So I went out of my house and I even wore navy blue (or dark purple or whatever) shirt to match the soon-to-be-mine perfume. I walked in the store and I didn't see any of it on the rack so I asked the woman and she answered that it was out of stock. Speechless. I asked when will it be available but the woman coudln't tell for sure so I gave her my number so that she can call me when it's already there. I really hope to get it very soon!

Anywaaaay I'm wearing my very beloved tweed vest in here, and yes I cut it off the other day because I'm not into long sleeves at the moment. I notice that I lost a few kilograms lately, is it because of the lack of sleep or the low fat milk I've been drinking for almost three weeks now? Weird.

Well happy weekend everyone I hope you guys have a very fun and lovely weekend! Keep being positive, no need to be sad for anything unnecessary, try new things, clean your room, start a night skin care routine, wear SPF, listen to the music every morning, keep in touch with your old friends and I wish you guys pure happiness in every way!

I'M FINALLY SEVENTEEN

2011-11-17T00:00:00.000+08:00

I can't believe that today is my birthday already. I mean the November 17th last year feels like only yesterday. I'm actually counting down the time right now (then it means it's not my birthday yet hahaha), it's only 10.45 pm right now. I can't wait for tomorrow morning, all I know that I have to look perfect, flawless, shining and stunning. I know it might sound a little too much but hey no one wants to look ugly or not looking their best on their birthday right? But the most important thing is to be thankful for the last 536.112.000 (I used calculator for sure :D) seconds of God's guiding, blessing and everything in my life until right now. And I want to thank to each one of you, my dear reader, who always make time to visit and read my blog. It really means A LOT to me and it makes me happy to know that people are being entertained by things that I put on this blog. To me, it's the best birthday gift from you guys. Ahh that sounds sweet! But seriously thank you so much guys and happy long life to all of us. Cheers! :)

BEHIND THE PHOTO: SIMPLICITY

2011-11-12T10:54:00.001+08:00

So I've been missing for almost two weeks now. I'm sorry guys, it's been a very busy week. Plus I have my TOEFL prediction test this afternoon and the real test next Saturday. This is just some random photos I took a while ago. Sometimes I take pictures of my sister too, and that hand you see above is her hand for sure. Ugh I hate telling you guys how busy and crazy my recent days are, I just think that it's so unnecessary and cliché. But I promise outfit post is coming very soon. Happy weekend everyone! :)

THE BOY IN BLUE

2011-10-30T23:54:00.000+08:00

Hi everyone! Ahh I'm so excited! This is actually my very first Halloween post, did this photoshoot yesterday at my friend's house. Finally wearing my leopard headpiece and the bowtie I bought the other day. I wish I could go to a Halloween Party, but there seems like none here. Well at least I'm enjoying dressing up as expressive as I want. What are you guys wearing in this Halloween? Tell me, I'd love to know! :)

I totally enjoying dressing up. It's fun, right? Well if you guys wanna see another Halloween-ish post, check out my Alice In Wonderland inspired post here. Happy Halloween everyone! GET WILDDDDDDDDDD!!!

HAUL #1

2011-10-28T00:33:00.004+08:00

This is gonna be the first haul post I've ever done. I like to buy stuffs so I hope I could do this kind of post continuously.

Leopard headpiece, Maybelline Mineral Concealer (medium-sand shade), some new brushes, a cute bowtie, double tape and a post-it, Success Through Character by Jakoep Ezra (haven't read it yet), my very first address/phone book, some cheap glittery highlighter, Johnny Andrean hair tonic, and glossy black tie.

SIMPLICITY

2011-10-22T22:52:00.000+08:00

Been wearing a lot of shirts and trousers lately. I'm so into simplicity and starting to hate short pants. Well I think my style is gradually changing and I'm trying to expand my trousers collection too. Sorry for the weird expression, I just came home and feeling tired when taking these pictures plus the high temperature that's always successful making my whole body sweaty. That's all and have a great Sunday everyone!

GREEN CUT-OFF SHIRT

2011-10-04T21:07:00.001+08:00

Hi everyone! I'm so sorry for the late update, I've been really busy (and tired :D) recently. There's already an extra class every Monday and Wednesday and I have TOEFL course at 4.30 pm on the same days so I have to go to my course directly from school. I don't know if it's just me or not, but when I'm busy I tend to try harder to make time for other things such as blogging. Because when my time is limited I tend to manage it better than when I have so much free time. Whenever I want to start working on something, I usually think, well there's still so much time, just put it off and do it another day. And that's not good guys! Laziness is a disease and I myself am still trying to fight it. I just finished reading a book (well it's not really a book, it's too thin), it's like a motivational and inspirational book and it's called Talenta Life. It's not religious or anything, it's really for everyone. I totally recommend you guys to buy it, so if you guys happen to go to a book store, don't forget to check it out because it is really really good. And oh ya about the shirt I'm wearing, I actually cut it off and I think I cut it too short huh? Hahaha. It was actually the first piece of shirt that I cut, so it was kinda like a training. Well I think it's all for now and I hope to see you guys soon! Good night everyone! :)

BEHIND THE PHOTO: LONG COUCH

2011-09-23T00:49:00.000+08:00

So this is how it looks like when I photoshoot. I mainly use tripod to take pictures of myself, and by the way I carry (grab actually hahaha) that long couch by myself from the warehouse to yard! It was so so so much exhausting!

HELLO AGAIN!

2011-08-26T21:50:00.000+08:00

Hello again everyone! So it's been THREE MONTHS since the last time I updated this blog and I miss blogging so much! The good news is my camera is now repaired so I can continue blogging again. Thanks for everyone who's been waiting for a long time and honestly I'm kinda forgot how to photoshoot. I mean seriously, I was kinda confused how many shots should I take, angle and things like that. So this is my very first post after a long break, I know it's not a massive post and there's not many photos for this time but I promise you guys for more photos on the upcoming post! :)

I've been obsessing on v-necked shirts lately. And those v-necked shirts from Giordano are perfect for me! Unfortunately I don't have enough money to purchase them so instead of stressing out I decided to create things by myself. I found some of my old t-shirts that I don't wear anymore and I cut neck so it looks like a v-necked shirt. Actually I feel much more satisfied creating things by myself than have to buy one, I mean just for particular things. You know most of the v-nect shirts on the market is somehow don't fit my body. Sometimes it's way too big, sometimes the sleeves are too long, or the shirt is too long. And actually those Giordano shirts are not perfect, it's kinda too long for me but the color and the plainness (is this even a word?) is so flattering! You know I never get enough of plain shirts. In my opinion, plain shirt is timeless.

And oh ya! Thank you so much for those sweet comments I'm gonna reply all of those very soon and don't hesitate to ask me for following back, I will definitely do if you ask me. Have a great weekend everyone! :D

ON THE COUCH

2011-04-23T06:40:00.001+08:00

Hi everyone! I'm sorry for the 3 weeks of absence but well I hope those two plain photos I showed you guys before could help, no? I know they couldn't hahaha. It was actually a fail photoshoot I did the other day. But now I have something to show you, actually it would be much better when I got blowing bubbles in my hand but unfortunately I just bought it yesterday so I think I will use it later. Happy Good Friday anyway people! Well I still haven't allowed to join holy communion but I'm always curious about the taste of the wine.

This week has been so tough for my bestfriend, Maria. She just lost her mother and I really feel sorry for her. I know how much she loves her mother and when the first time I got the message from my sister about this I was totally shocked and freaked out, I immediately told my school friends about this. Today me and my friends will attend the funeral, I think the hardest part is when the body have to be graved deep under the ground and I know she will need her friends the most in that moment. We will be always by your side, Maria, that's what friends are for, well personally, I promise you. Lock my promise box and throw away the key. I really hope that she will be back in school on 27th but if she won't I would understand. Anyway should we back to the blog post right now? I feel really sad :'(

Back to the blog post ...

Forgive me if I took too much pictures of that School Of Fear book but I love the book cover so much and I can't help myself! I'm obsessed to interesting book cover, that's it, never interested to read the book itself, weird huh?

It's been such a long time for me not to wear my handmade shoes I'm wearing above! :)

Do you know that this is a real compass? Yes it is. I bought it in a book store and turned it into a necklace! :D I used to wear necklace a lot of times but it's just not into me anymore recently. No more necklace, rings or bracelets - a hat is enough.

Here is it! My new agenda! I actually want a leather covered agenda but it was too expensive and the tabs (those thick papers in order to divide agenda into some parts - anyone know what people call it?) are not what I need. I don't need mondays tuesdays or wednesdays, what I need are : Things to Do, Goals, Photoshoot Ideas and Notes. That's why I made them myself! Ahhh I love happiness feeling when you're successfully done creating something! It feels great! Happy Saturday everyone, have a very great weekend! :)

I'M A MESS

2011-04-10T19:27:00.000+08:00

Things look even worse in real life, my desk is too messy to be neat up. I ended up cleaning the everything in Sunday not in Saturday like I've already planned, I hate working on my holiday. I think my bedroom describes who I really am, just kidding.

GLOWING

2011-04-03T08:00:00.003+08:00

The weather has been crazy these last days. It's raining and winding out there. The wind is extremely hard and destroying! There are many trees falling down! Scary huh? That's why I prefer to stay home than hanging out around.

The other day there was a blackout and my sister and me didn't know what to do, it was only afternoon but those clouds seemed like covering the whole sky from the sun light. My sister recently bought these three electric candles and she turned them on inside her room (that Winnie The Pooh glowing pillow is given by her boyfriend), I came into her room and I was like "WOW!!!" I realized that I have that glowing thingy as well, my friend gave me that green smiley as a birthday gift last year. Oooh how I love the way they glow hahaha.. PS: I love everything smiley! :)

ALBERT IN WONDERLAND

2011-03-31T21:11:00.000+08:00

I know I've made a promise to update at least once per three days but this long holiday just worsen my laziness, sorry guys.. I sleep late and wake up late. Gosh! I feel like I've been wasting my time. Holiday is great but it causes annoying problem such as insomnia. Do you guys feel the same way during holiday?

Albert In Wonderland! I supposed to be Alice according to the title but since Mad Hatter and Red Queen are my two favorite characters, so I choose to be Mad Hatter. This blog post is inspired by a wonderful movie, Alice In Wonderland. I watched a movie a while ago and it didn't impress me so much, but I was curious to know about the behind the scene of the movie because I want to know how the movie was created and I was surprised! Totally surprised! All I can see is green screen everywhere. The wall, the room, the chair, the castle, even the frogs are created using special effects. Tim Burton, you are a genuis! After watching how this movie was created, I realize that Tim Burton is someone who can build something from nothing. I mean I always love his art work, his drawing style which is goth is so iconic. I want to buy his book so badly, Tom Burton's Art Book, but sadly when I took a look on ebay it was so expensive! Even the used ones! I don't even want to memorize the cost but all I know that it was super expensive to be converted to Rupiah. So sad...

I know that there is no fairies in Alice In Wonderland but hey this is Albert In Wonderland right? hahaha. In Albert's Wonderland there are so many fairies hiding in the dark behind the tress. There are two reasons: 1). They hate sun light 2). They are shy.

But somehow these multiple hats I'm wearing attract them, and they come from the darkness and sorrounding my head. I guess they want my hats. You may steal honey from my kitchen, but you cannot steal my hats away!

Mad Hatter is enjoying his tea..

Here I share you my biscuits and candies, do you want some? :)

(photos are photographed by my sister and me)

WE ARE TWINS

2011-03-14T21:08:00.003+08:00

Hi everyone! Tomorrow will be the last day for exam and we will be doing an online test which I don't even know what that teacher means by that. Well unfortunately there's an extra subject for us, Accountancy, which will be held on Friday. So my suffering is not done yet. By the way I'm sorry for my a week ++ absence, but I'm here again to show you guys something. Something that I've been dreaming of but impossible to be.

Ohh how I want to have a twin, or twins! If these three boys are real twins, I wonder which one am I? Seriously, this takes a while for me to think. I think I would rather be the middle one, he dresses colorful but his face is kinda unhappy hahahaha. Their names are (left to right) Dave, Cliff and Kevin. I WISH I HAVE TWINS!!!

And oh ya, about the journalist competition. I want to say thank you so so much for the sweet wishes and supports, they made me happy! :) Well Ananta and me didn't win the competition, but my friends did, so I feel happy for them, at least our school will be more known for achievements.

Dave and Kevin LOL XD

This is the most complicated photoshoot that I ever done so far. I changed a lot of outfits, take a lot of angles, and deal with the everything. And one thing that was bothering the most, SWEAT. All over my body! I swear whenever you do a photoshoot, whether it's day or night, your body will definitely be sweaty, well that's what I've been through hehehe :)

PAPERS ON THE WALL

2011-03-05T11:29:00.000+08:00

Hey everyone! Happy Saturday! What are you doing on your Saturday? Well in about half an hour I will have a shower and then meet my friends for a cup of yoghurt, I want to eat yoghurt so badly! And I haven't meet my friend for such a long time, so this time might be a perfect time. By the way mid-semester exam will start next week, on Monday, and it's weird that I don't feel unsecure at all. I don't want to think about exam I just want to have fun today :)

Did this photoshoot a week ago with my sister and we were about to shoot then that plain old wall seems too simple for me, so I changed my mind. Then we grabbed an unused very thick book, and turned out it was actually a yellow page hahaha, but well nobody seems to care with that yellow page so we thought it's okay!

It's me ripping the papers. I dunno when it comes to damaging stuffs, I feel like there's an huge anger coming out from my heart and I enjoy doing it. It's weird and fun at the same time :D

Look at the floor, ohmygosh I swear I enjoyed making a mess that afternoon with those papers. Sometimes when the wind blows the papers and it creates that wonderful flowing papers effect, do you get what I mean? Or do I speak too complicatedly? hahahaha

Looks like I enjoy reading so much? Yes I do. But I think I'm type of person who gets bored easily, almost the books that I already read, only 10% of them are finished to read. Like this novel that I borrowed from my friend, Ananta, 'School Of Fear', I never finish it. Well this novel is about some students in the same class, they're classmates and they have their own fears, and it also tells about their life in the school. I think I'm into the book cover than the book's story, that's why I get attracted by interesting book covers, but always remember don't judge the book by the cover ;)

I think this picture is my favorite! :) Well before I take a shower just wanna say, happy Saturday everyone! Enjoy your weekend! :D

WELCOME MARCH!

2011-03-01T21:03:00.012+08:00

Hello again everyone! Thank you so so much for waiting for me, I'm sorry that you have to wait until evening to see this post, but I hope you will like what I'm about to show you. :)

Well I have a bad day, not only a bad day, but these last two months. Recently I feel that everything is so boring! There's nothing happens at school, same people, same teachers, same everything. No fun. No surprises. I can make sure that the last time I felt so damn happy is about two months ago and I even forget what it was to make me happy at the moment. And the bad news is I don't even know why am I feeling like this, is this what we called as Boredom Syndrome? Gosh I swear I can't wait to have my college life!

"The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance, the wise grows it under his feet."

- James Openheim

It's been quite long time for me not to wear this bag because well recently I usually bring my DSRL which is sooo heavy, and loosy bag is just not good anymore, but I love this bag :) I found this bag a bout 2 years ago in a thrift store.

And oh yeah! I already had my new haircut, bangless. What do you think? :) Well actually it was really really bright and hot when I was doing this photoshoot outdoor, but I just figured out that I have to put your exposure level to a little bit darker so that the photos will look great :)

I wish I could be happy forever, sometimes when I feel so damn happy the only thing I'm afraid about is to lose it.

My favorite shot! :D I just love love love love this photos! WOOHOOOOOO :D

Well how are you everyone? I miss you! :) Seriously! You know I think I'm in the middle of life crisis right now. Sometimes I just feel like I keep failing for myself. Okay maybe this sounds embarassing but sometimes I watch dvds all day, from noon until night, and I don't even have time to wash my body. What do you think? That's pethatic right? I can't even take care for myself, and from now on I promise myself to be the only controller in my whole life.

Well forget what I said a few days ago, well this post is actually a re-post post, I've made a little edit here. Maybe a few days ago I feel like my life has turned so boring and eveyrthing is the same but well recently I don't feel that way anymore, well feeling changes all the time right? hehehe but I am so happy that I have spirit to go through my life again, because that's all we need everyday! :)

C IS FOR CLIFF

2011-02-09T20:07:00.000+08:00

My style is all about mixing both basics and extra items. If you notice, I wear that plain black shirt so often because it's easy to mix with other clothes. Basics are necessary. I just realized that these three colors work best for my skin tone: black, gray and navy blue. Sometimes we just need the perfect color to boost up our style and soul.

This cut out shirt is one of my DIY project. It was my father's old shirt, I love the color and the shape so I cut the sleeves and make some cut on the back. C, A and T--which are my name initials.

WEEKEND

2011-02-06T07:00:00.005+08:00

Good Sunday morning everyone! :D Thank God it's still holiday today so I still have free time, gonna spend this day with a lot of sleeping, doing nothing and just being happy. And oh ya, my sister and I are going to do a photoshoot and I want to shoot as many as possible because when it's already time to get into the daily duty, I have no time anymore. Well ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND! :)

MY FAVORITE HAT AGAIN

Hat - a gift from my friend, Jakarta

Plain black shirt - I think I've been wearing this plain black shirt a lot because I love basic items, you can mix them with whatever you want and it's so useful.

Some brooches - I bought them in a book store, I think I'm gonna make a photo post about these 3 useful brooches, well there's actually 4 piecies but the last one is kinda not really good hahahaha

Pants - Matahari Department Store

Bag - Nevada (Matahari Department Store)

Shoes - Fladeo (Matahari Department Store)

I did this photoshoot in a holiday morning and now I miss my holiday, it's been one week since I go back to school. It was a small warehouse in the yard and I fall in love with the orange-ish color.

I think now I'm addicted to photograph my half body, do you think it sounds weird? hahahaha because I think it is but I just love how it looks.

What is your favorite photo and why? Tell me! :)

BACK TO SCHOOL: NEW HAIRCUT

2011-01-09T22:02:00.001+08:00

Hey everyone! I got my new haircut this afternoon and I like it so much. I actually still like my old hairstyle, some of you called it mickey mouse hairstyle hahaha and it's so hilarious! :D Well the other day when my mother came to school to receive my test result, the teacher told my mother that my hair is too long, so I decided for a little shorter haircut for now. Some teachers put their eyes on me and it is enough, I don't want to get more pressure at school, no thanks. So I keep the hair short but I still have bang, it makes me look better I guess, I need bang for the whole of my life!

I still cannot believe that I will be at school tomorrow morning, BACK TO SCHOOL. And the scariest thing of all is...wake up early! I hate waking up early and moving like a zombie trying to move as fast as possible but ended up with 30 minutes in the toilet and the final result is, I am late. OHHKAAAY, STOP THAT MISTER! The 3 weeks ++ holiday is never enough (right??!), but I miss my friends though so consider it as one of the reason. I hope we will not do anything there, I actually enjoy cleaning my school because no study and I can chat and scream even sing all daaaaaaaay hahahaha. Well for you guys who are going back to school after a lazy holiday, I wish you all good luck! :D

I AM OFFICIALLY BACK!

2011-01-04T16:01:00.001+08:00

It's been such a long long time not doing a photoshoot for myself, alone with a tripod. But for this time there's a difference, it's upgraded, from a handy digital camera into a DSLR Canon EOS 1000D. It's almost 6 months and I miss photoshoot moment. The moment when I set the self-timer and pose alone, nobody sees. It's so much fun, and it feels like freedom. Well it's kinda annoying actually because you have to take a lot of photos again and again to get the perfect result, and I enjoy the everything! :)

v-neck shirt - Number 61

plaid shirt - I grabbed it from my daddy's closet 2 years ago hahahaha

jeans - I did the details by myself

shoes - Nevada

SKY HIGH

2011-01-04T15:43:00.000+08:00

Hi everyone! I'm sorry for running away from my promises for the new year. I've promised you there will be a new post on the 1st January 2011 but there was nothing and about the new template? Oh no I think I'm gonna stick with the old one but I'm gonna change the header, but until this second I still cannot replace it with the right one, super sorry everyone!

Well the other day I was like to sketch shoes (I sketch when I'm bored lol) and then a sky high heels came up from my head and I chose to color it blue. What do you think? :)

IT WAS A LONG DAY

2010-12-30T08:16:00.003+08:00

I've been listening to old songs lately and I wonder how magically wonderful it could affects my current feelings, suddenly all those bitter and sweet memories flashing back. If you ever wondered to feel the way you used to feel, play your former favorite songs and then you can feel it right away, it's simple just like that!

And by the way this was a long day, I went with a friend to accompany her to buy dress for the party but then ended up meeting with more friends, it was the day for School Christmas Celebration. I didn't go to the party, I didn't know why, I was just not in the mood, when they were having party I was in Zhi Hua College having a good time. I actually had no chinese class at the moment, but I went there to have a chat. I'm so happy to have a place like that, the place where I can have fun and have a relax time when friends are not available.

I've been crazy with Photoshop just to get my photos the champagne skin tone, and after tons of photoshop tutorial on youtube, I think I did a good job especially on the second pic, I love it! :)

MERRY CHRISTMAS

2010-12-26T00:08:00.005+08:00

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope Christmas spirit and blessing will always follow us around. Amen.

Have you ever seen that Honda commercial advertising on tv? It shows a very very big Christmas tree and it is so beautiful, filled with lights. You know what? That huge Christmas tree is located in my city, Manado! It is located in front of McDonald's. I went there with friends in the thinking to take beautiful photos with the Christmas tree, but it wasn't that easy, the result is always blurred and I tried to set my shutter speed faster but then the photo gets dark, all I need is to use my tripod, but since the tripod is big (eventhough you already fold it) and so heavy, so I say to myself no thanks. So finally I set the lens to Manual Focus and I don't even set the focus, and I think it creates some creative effect, for some reasons I love blurred photo :). And oh ya, how your was your Christmas people? Mine is so beautiful as always, we went to the church and had a very enjoyable and relaxing and fun time at home with my family, I was so much thankful because I brought my wireless modem here (I am at my old house now, on Jan 2nd I will be back) so I still have some entertainment and connection with my friends, because watching all those great movies on tv every single night is quite boring though.

PIZZA & THE FLASH LIGHT

2010-12-24T06:28:00.000+08:00

Actually I was not really surprised and thankful when I got my first DSLR, the fact that I usually use my friends' DSLR makes me feel not surprised at all. The other day I hang out with my friends and I brought my camera, we took a lot of photos and they all are nice. When I look at them, I love them and then I realize and feel so much happy and thankful to have my Canon EOS 1000D, the more I photograph beautiful photos the more I love my EOS. Thank you so much to my father to buy me one :)

Here in Manado when it comes to Christmas everyone is buying clothes like crazy, if you visit the malls you will see the people walking around and it's so crowded (I think I should photograph the situation someday). The stores are opening huge SALES and DISCOUNTS, so it seems like whether you need to buy something or not you will be tempationed hahaha.

I myself don't buy new clothes yet because I want to buy the clothes myself or at least not being accompanied by my mother. Since (and always) my mother is a big mouthed woman and she likes what I dislike so I think it's just not a good sign to buy clothes with her. But I don't know why, I'm just not in the mood to buy new clothes but I already said to my mother to save me the budget, I don't go shopping doesn't mean that I will never go shopping anymore, I will if I want to. I think I'm gonna shop some new clothes when it's already new year, no more crowded places.

It's raining everyday and it sucks! And what makes it even worse is I am stuck in my insomnia disorder, I sleep super late every single night or literally when it's already almost morning and I also wake up late and I think I waste my time! This is always happen to me when it comes holiday, what about you people? And how is your holiday so far?

Okaaaay too far from the point hahaha, I think I just need to report little things from my personal life, right? :)

The other day I was being invited by my friend, Gratia for her birthday dinner. I was not really hungry that time, so I think I should order a delicious sweet icy drink, I forgot the name but it was so delicious! I only ate a piece of pizza, somehow it makes me really really full. Sometimes when I eat pizza it makes my stomach get full instantly but I still want to eat but I cannot, it's fulled already. So somewhat like it fulls your stomach just before you feel full hahahahaha, I think it's true for some people.

Sterry, Tasha, Gratia (the birthday girl!) and Josh

Hat : It's a gift from my friend

Shirt : It's my oldie basic t-shirt, worn inside out

Some brooches

Boots : Fladeo

This is a bokeh photo from a Christmas tree in KXTV Karaoke, isn't it beautiful? :) To learn bokeh photography is quite easy, you just need to put your hands or any object very near to your lens and let it to focus and then switch your lens to MF (manual focus) and try to find a far light source or at least you're not very near to it, and then zoom in your lens to the max (lol I can't find any other words XD) and then CAPTURE. Taddaaaa your bokeh photo has just created! If you find this explanation not clear you can google it 'how to photograph bokeh' Google knows everything, right? :)

If you see clearly on the image, you can see that I'm wearing the shirt inside out, you can see the inside seaming line. I love to wear inside out shirts, because I don't really like printed shirts, except those with very cool prints :D

I have been obsessed to create a twin photo like this for such a long time and now I already have it yay! :D And oh ya bytheway the blog header is under construction hehehe I'm still looking for another one, any ideas? I'm kinda losing my brain storm lately, Well isn't this a long post? I hope it's enough for you :)

ONE WORD, FINALLY

2010-12-15T22:42:00.000+08:00

Hi everyone!!! I miss you and blogging so much, I haven't posted anything yet since like two weeks ago or so. But I have something great to tell you all! I know you all know what my biggest obsession is, yeah DSLR camera! And the biggest news is I already got my very first DSLR camera! Just a few days ago, it was 13th December when my mother and me bought Canon EOS 1000D in the camera store. I think the EOS 1000D is a very good DSLR and it's actually the cheapest one. Here is some of my sample and testing pictures using my new camera!

1. It has became such a must-have picture for people who just got their new DSLR camera to photograph the camera cap lens.
2. Some instructions books that came with the package
3. My sister's teddy bear
4. I couldn't find any objects to be photographed and then I saw these three natural oils bottles
5. My sister's nail polish

And oh ya! I have a BIG announcement for all of you my lovely dearest readers! :)

ANNOUNCEMENT

From the 1st January 2011, I will update my blog once per three days so there's always gonna be a new post every three days or even sooner.

I will change CROP.CRIP.CROP template into something better, but I guess I will have to keep the simple and white theme.

And since I already had my DSLR I think now is the time to let people give their photoshoot ideas for me, if you want me to know it, please don't hesitate to tell me by email :)

I hope having a new camera let me to improve this blog so I can get more love from my lovely readers hehehe

Thar's all I guess and HAPPY HOLIDAAAAAAAAY! :D

OLDIE BUT GOODIE

2010-11-07T11:47:00.000+08:00

Hi guys! I've been missing my old days recently and looking at my old photos. Oh my goodness it feels so much nice to look at my memories and I can even feel exactly like I felt when it was happening a few years ago! Isn't it great? And suddenly I found this picture, I smiled. I remember this was maybe my first fashion photo taken by my very old digital camera. I was still in the second grade of junior high school perhaps. This photo is a looooooot of photoshopped I know you can see it lol XD but I love this photo, I loooove it!

I was wearing a stripey shirt by Crocodile, a jacket (I turn this jacket into my lousy messy shoes that I made myself) pants and one of my favorite Nevada shoes.

HIPPIE (OR NOT) ?

2010-09-23T08:43:00.000+08:00

Hey everyone! :) I'm so sorry for my one day late update because yeah yesterday I was so tired! There was a lot of activities at school and I knew that I was so tired but still pushed myself to had some fun in my friend's house..hahaha but at least it was so much FUN! :D

Okay I want to show you guys what I wore a few months ago to my friend's birthday. Some of my friends tell that I look good but some not. They say I look hippie, it's kinda funny though.. Hahaha what do you think? Well I myself love to wear a lot of colors and layers and accecories because...I just like it! : )

Topi pramuka. Shirt, SuperT (worn inside-out ps:i dont like shirt prints). Some broochs. Belt. Bag, I found it in vintage shop. Trouser, I found it in my mother's old closet..hehe. Shoes, old shoes, it was my DIY project, and I added brown fabrics cuts all over it.

Here are my four broochs, actually they are my favorites! Well okay I actually only have four so instantly they become the faves! hahaha :D

Well I personally ~~dont't like~~ HATE those prints on shirt, not all of them, but some. But I love this shirt and its prints, but it doesn't look good to pull off the print on this look so I don't show it. So I wear inside-out shirt many times..hahaha. Except on one condition: prints on white shirt. I got no idea why I never hate printed white shirts, they just look...good. This shirt that I'm actually wearing looks like below, the shirt that I wore in SUNSHINE post. You can also wear your shirts inside-out, as long as the shirt is dark and plain.

MY DIY JEANS

2010-09-19T01:33:00.003+08:00

Happily and proudly I present you guys my multi patch jeans! :D I was bored with my old jeans. I found it boring and too plain and then I started to think to make it more...interesting. Fortunately I still have all those rest fabrics that I used to make bags and now I can use them! Oh how thankful now I know what is it for to save your rest fabrics after you make something.

I sewed each small piece on the pants, oooh my! It's sooo tiring and exhausting! When I was still working on it I really wanted it to be finished right away but I could't do anything but keep working! It feels crazy as hell..hahhaha XD

And you know what? It feels like heaven once you've finished it..whoaaaaaa I was so relief! I just couldn't stop looking at it! :D I kept my eyes on it, and watch the everything. The more I watch, the more happy I am! :) I launched my new masterpiece in my friend's birthday, well I've planned in for such a long time. LOL. What a great timing..hehehe

I love to wear colorful socks, they're great!

I just found something interesting when I'm browsing the net just now. I ever wonder to go to some store that only sells socks, every kind of socks! I really want to go there and there actually is that kind of store, SOCKS STORE! Isn't that cool? :D

I loooooooove all of them!!! :D GO TO HAPPY SOCKS to check them all!

EAST AND WEST

2010-09-17T17:48:00.000+08:00

I have to say if I have to pick up some of my favorite street styles I would say that I love Japanese street style and Western street style! Japanese is much more playful and colorful, and Western is much more chic and basics, and ofcourse timeless! And I love them both! :D

1. Japanese Street Styles

2. Paris Street Styles

After see the pictures of course you can notice the differences between east and west styles. Both have their own identity :)

CONFESSION & ONE SUNNY DAY

2010-09-13T16:54:00.000+08:00

Instead of thinking too hard to write something "WOW", just write what you feel like to write, but also use your brain. I learn this when I start blogging, because when you force yourself too hard, then it's gonna be something not original and unsincerely, and it's no good.

I want to say thank you so much for all of my dearest loyal readers, you know what? You're the only ones that I have on this blog, yeah it's true. Thank you thank you so much. Now it's a confession time. Blogging teach me A LOT. It teaches me to bring my best, to do my best and to bring everything sincerely from the deepest of my heart (now I'm going poetic haha XD). Being a fashion blogger is not about to get many sweet and compliments comments, it's not about to receive many readers emails, or it's not about to be someone that many people adore, no it's not about that. It's about to write something that you feel like to write, something that's honest and sincerely from my heart. I know I've been working too hard to get many comments in my blog. I WAS WRONG. I thought if I get many comments then my blog will be much better, no you're wrong Cliff. It's not about that. Okay if you have many comments in your blog, but what if people don't even like your blog? They're just replying the comments that you've dropped yesterday in their blogs, it fake. I'm so sorry and now I'm realized that something fake is no good, it's not the thing that I want. I don't like fake things! Now I'm realized thank GOD :) Instead of trying TOO HARD to get many sweet and compliment comments (which are actually the replies of my comment that I dropped on those blogs yesterday) now I know, just write what you think is good and bring your best. You have to be sincered, and now I am :)

Uuuugh, now I'm relief thanks so much people for listening to my long and a little pointless story from my heart, now my heart is relief.. :)

Anyway...

It's raining outside right now, and yeah it's so chill! I'm kinda miss the sunshine day that I actually hate when it comes to my daily life. Ugh, nobody likes over-too-much sweat all over your body right? And plus the heat that hits your skin with its needle-like sharpness.

I thought to myself why is it I always want something when it's apparently unavailable. Here, in my old house I have a dusty bed and I don't like it. Now how I really really want to lay on my smooth and warm bed in my new house. Oh ya, I didn't tell you guys that I visit my old house this Friday and I will be back on Monday in the morning. And I will be in my friend's birthday party after that, but I don't know when is the exact time. She didn't tell me yet. - was wrote on Sunday when I was still in my old house, but now I'm back! :D

Anyway I feel like to show you guys the photos that I took when I was in the beach with my friends (well actually not really friends) a few months ago, well it wasn't really fun but I still love the sand and the sunshine. I think everybody doesn't like hot days in their daily life, but when it comes to the holiday in the beach, surely I WANT A SUNNY DAY! :D

PEACE! :D

I have to say that the water is sooooo clear. I love love love love it!! :D

I was playing in the water, and SEMETHING BITES MY FEETS!! OUCH OUCH OUCH!!

First time I arrived it seems like not a good place. But then when I actually roll my eyes to each corners of this place, I instantly know that this beach is so beautiful! I fall in love with the super smooth and cool (haha i like the feeling to grave my feet under the sand, it feels good) and the tree! Gosh the color of the leaf, it's perfect!

OVERSIZE

2010-09-09T19:02:00.000+08:00

Hey back to the old days..I once wore this outfit when..oh ya I remember, it was a cloudy windy day and it was really really cold, I actually never had that kind of cold day before. In the afternoon me and my sister were starving and I still remember my body got really weak hahaha XD. We decided to go out for dinner, so yeah I think it's the right time to wear my (very) oversize jacket. I actually got (no I actually steal it hahaha :D) it from my father. I found it in the old closet, and I was like, well he never wear it, so I take it :D such a good coincidence huh? hahaha :)

Hat. Brown shirt (I wear it inside out, that's why you guys can't see the prints on it). Pants, Number 61. Bag, Nevada. Shoes, Nevada. Compass necklace (it's a real compass. I bought in the bookstore and I wanted to make it a necklace, so I attach it into my necklace string, and tadaaaaaa now I have a compass necklace! :))

Here is the detail of the necklace. Do you like it? Sure you can make your own too by yourself! :) just buy a compass in your local store and then when you got it you just simply attach it with your necklace string. Easy right? :)

By the way I'm now trying very very hard to increase my blog followers and readers. So actually I do promote everywhere..hehe maybe it's kinda too much but that's what I want to do :). So my dearest readers, if you like my blog, please follow my blog yes? You can use your google account, twitter or even yahoo, it's all allowed, and if you guys want me to follow you back just tell me, I will surely do! :)

OZZIE

2010-09-08T21:52:00.000+08:00

I got nothing to do. I turn my laptop on and instantly move my cursor to click my photos folder. There I found these photos! Yeah blogging with no cam is a super hard work (told you that I broke my cam early this year), it's hard to set appointment with your friend. I have a few friends who own DSLR, so they sometimes help me, but as what I said it's hard to catch up. Sometimes we don't have any time to meet. Anywaaay, I really really love my ozzie style sunglasses! It fits PERFECTLT on my face, what do you think? :D

Hat, some boutique. Ozzie, unbranded. Shirt, I wore it inside-out, it's actually my class shirt when I was in junior high. Plaid shirt, Number 61. Belt. Ecthnic bag, I got it from the mall. Pants, Aero for Kids. Sneakers, Bata.

The plain black shirt is wore inside-out because I don't like the print on it (ps: it's hard for me to like shirt with prints, only a few pieces that I think are good-looking then I like it) and then I thought, well it's too simple. So I grab safety pins that I bought a few days ago and attach them onto the shirt. Hahaha it's funny that I get enough of safety pins, because I bought A LOT! :) Anyway the sky was soooo blue that day! :D

SEPTEMBER WISHES

2010-09-01T14:15:00.001+08:00

Heeeeey everyone! :D Time flies just too fast and now we just hit September! I think this year is the fastest year that I've been through in my whole 15 years of my life! Seriously, it is! I still remember when me and my friends met in the mall and we had food and watched a movie on the last day of the 2009-December the 31st, it feels like yesterday! And I still remember what I wore that day too, hahaha :D It was a hat, a SuperT t-shirt, my jeans, and my BATA sneakers. And I brought two bags with me, one is backpack and the other one is slingbag. I had to go back to my old house after out with my friends, so I brought some of my stuffs and I spent my holiday there.

Oh ya! Back to the point! Because of today is a very special day for me I want to make a list of the things that I'm trying to reach, my goals.

- There are many of my friends will have their birthday in this month, so I hope I can give them gifts!

- After make all of those hidious attandance in my Chinese Language course, now I'm going to fix it all. And today is the schedule day when I have to go there, so I will be ready in 2 hours ! ps: it's raining outside, I hope it stops so I still can go out and feel the cool air! :)

- Study hard! Especially for the most boring and hatable subjects: Math, Physics and ofcourse Chemistry.

- Sleep early. I never like my baggy eyebags, they're hidious! I always go to bed when it's actually already tomorrow, yes 00.00 or later than it. I actually use eyecream (haahaha :D) but it doesn't work if I'm still doing my bad sleep habbit.

- Do MORE photoshoots! I don't understand why is it so difficult to set an appointment. Well I guess me and my photographer are busy all the time.. -..-

- Eat regularly. It's a confenssion that sometimes I eat a very small amount of food and sometimes I eat A LOT! And it's not healthy. So now I'm trying to fix it :)

- Drink milk in the morning and night. I honestly drink milk only in the morning, but I know I need more calcium, so now it's one my habbits to drink milk twice a day. I often get some white things on my finger nails and when I googled it, it's actually the sign of Calcium Dificiency, so check yours guys! :)

- Be humble, dilligent and a nice person. Everybody likes a nice person rigth? :)

I just told you my September wishes, now what's yours? :D

THE TEEN VOGUE HANDBOOK UPDATE (1)

2010-08-27T18:46:00.001+08:00

"Don't let your ego get ahead of your fame. No matter how talented you are, Lagerfeld warns, overconfidence can turn people off to your designs before they even really have the chance to see them."

"Don't play star before you are one."

Here's some of Karl Lagerfeld advices that I copy from my Teen Vogue Handbook. Both are very inspiring and the last one really means a lot to me! :D

I MISS MY CAM AND MY LAOSHI :(

2010-08-27T18:33:00.000+08:00

I am now sitting alone in an Restaurent in Manado Town Square. Alone. I put my laptop on the table and i also put The Teen Vogue Handbook beside my laptop haha :D somehow I think it could be cool :P and I ordered an orange juice. I like this kinda time. Happy spending time alone yet blogging in the same time :D.

Oh ya, I think I kinda miss my two old things lately. The first is my old digital camera. Yo guys know that I got no cam since I broke mine early this year. Ugh I don't even want to think about it really! -..-

Aaand the second is my old Chinese Language teacher that left this city two months ago and now the new one has been taught me for the last two months :( Not to mention that I don't like the new one but I just miss my lovely laoshi. Now Cui Xi laoshi is in Jakarta, she teaches for an international school there. I MISS HER! :( I will text her as soon as possible when I get my mobile phone usable again!

This is a picture that I took with my old digicam. I was in the Airport, I wanted to pick up my mother that landed that night.

6 TOP BLOGS

2010-08-22T21:29:00.000+08:00

Hello guys, I think I have something to tell you all in this lately Sunday night. Well one thing that I hate from Sunday is when it gets late, I start thinking of the Monday Attack (somehow it always makes me smile to remember the name I called it hahaha :D). You all know what I'm talking about, I've been free for the whole two days, Saturday and Sunday and then I have to go to my daily busy life again, hmm. T___T It's not about the school, it's about waking up early, all those crazy assignments and those creepy teachers! Do you guys feel the same way?

Oh ya, tomorrow I have these lesson schedule:

Accountancy, history, religion and math. What I hate is they somehow put that boriiiiiing lesson such as math on the last part, the time when I already get bored, tired and thinking of taking a nap on my bed..hahahahaha XD I think all the student do the samt thing, so I'm not concidering it as a sin rrright? :D cause we all do! hehehe :P

Okaay back to the point. Now I have blabla websites that I open regularly. Here they are:

1. Fashiontoast.com

You guys know Rumi, the cool girl behind the high seccessful fashion blog, fashiontoast. She's damn soo hot!

2. Hot Chocolate & Mint

I think everybody knows Diana Rikasari already! :D I like her! What I like from her is she got no fear to play with clothes, and even create her own personal style. If they got Rumi out there, then we got Diana Rikasari her! :D Like Rumi who works for many fashion line, Diana does it too. Diana does many collaboration, like with Wondershoe, she already make two collections for Wondershoe. Isn't it COOL huh??? :D

3. JAKANDJIL

Ooooooh maaan! This is a very world well-known fashion blog. I really like this blog, because in JAKANDJIL you're not gonna see much text like what you can see in other blog such as mine. And it has the most perfect fashion spot photography too, believe me you're gonna LOVE it! :D

4. De Creme de la Crop

The cute 11 years old girl!!! The most cute and the most creative girl who loves fashion and live in it! Evita Nuh! :D She's always been my favorite and inspiration since I visit her blog for the first time! She is totally adorable!

5. Olsenobsessive

I'm a Olsens fans! I always love Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen for their different cool inspiring styles! And for all of those $$$$$$$$ that they have, they're only 25! :D

6. Terselubung

I think this blog is so popular in Indonesia. It contains news, music, ... I think it almost contains everything in a different way. Oh wrong, correct me! I mean the news of all the things inside this blog is differeng and unique, or even it contains the things that you never think you like to explore! Believe you're gonna LOVE it, and for me, I visit it for every single day..hehehe :)

I'M FLU

2010-08-21T19:37:00.000+08:00

It's kinda funny for me this morning, because when I woke up, I jumped from my bed and turn on the tv. I press "1" on my remote because it's the channel where Shin Chan plays. It was only 9.30 pm and I was so confused why wasn't there Shin Chan? Where's my Shin Chan? Give it back to the channel please!!! I've been thinking hard with anger and then instantly I realize that it's only Saturday and the channel show Shin Chan every Sunday..hahaha :D I think everyone loves holiday, especially when it comes to daily life, I mean Saturday is always be my holiday, and it's soo nice because I always got double holiday, if today is Saturday and tomorrow is Sunday so I am free for THE WHOLE TWO DAYS!!! Yaay! :D

Okay let's start now. A few days ago (I dunno why, but if you noticed, somehow I always use this kind of start "A few days ago" because I actually don't want to think hard to thing when was it) my friend, Eunike and me did a photoshoot. Actually I only wore an one-look outfit, so I hope we can do more photoshoot later. So..ENJOY GUYS!

I NEVER PUT MY TONER BOTTLE CAP BACK ON

2010-08-17T18:42:00.000+08:00

ARTISTRY Clarifying Oil Control Toner

I never put my toner bottle cap back on and it's funny to me to put the cup back on whenever I see it. The last time I use toner is this morning before I off to school and now it's 7 p.m. !!! So the poor uncapped toner bottle has been surviving for 12 hours! I hope it's still usable..haha :D. But I'm not sure that it will last long because I keep doing the same stupid thing, hahahaha XD.

SORRIES AND PLEASES

2010-08-15T00:33:00.002+08:00

I think I have to say a lot of sorries to all of you, it's just not so good when you already planned to have a photshoot but you slept too much and now you just passed it away. Yeah that is what happened yesterday when Artha and me already planned to do photoshoot. And I hate me for that! I mean this is a fashion blog and somehow I did not post much things about my daily outfit and fashion, I myself like when people post about other things except fashion in their fashion blog, but not too much right?

So I'm sorry guys :( I hope you guys still be my loyal reader ya? :) I'm gonna have photoshoot again next Tuesday, and I promise I will post it on the next day or sooner I PROMISE! :D Always be my loyal reader please, because you are all I have for this CROPCRIPCROP. And I hope you guys can understand that I got no camera (since I broke my digital camera this year, my bad -..-), I only have a phone camera, and well it's not a good one, hehe :'D. Aaand I'm still waiting for my dad to buy a DSLR for me, I hope I can get it on my birthday, November 17th and even I can still wait until the end of this year, yes the last day in 2010! I swear I want that Canon EOS 500D so badly and tears is pouring down my face right now *sooooo lebay*, I am so sad :(. I'm having no camera but still trying to make my blog alive in the same time, thank God I have friends with DSLRs in their hands, so at least they always help me whenever they got time.

Last but not least, I hope you enjoy my blog as I'm trying hardly to attract you guys. Thank you :)

SHOOTING WITH JELLY LENS

2010-08-10T19:31:00.000+08:00

A few days ago I went to my friend's house. We were gonna have some fun with her new underwater lomo camera and some new jelly lens. Well unfortunately, the package wasn't arrived yet. We even went to TiKi official office to save much time, but it wasn't there. They said they've been a little bit busy. Soooo yes we were disappointed but thankfully she already got the jelly lens that were sent to her house. We plaaaaaay with jelly lens! IT WAS SO MUCH FUN! REALLY!

Actually there are 12 kinds of jelly lens that you can easily patch onto your phone camera or your digital camera, but not all type of digital camera is patchable, it's because of the size of the lens. Here I only use a few kind of jelly lens. Like Close-up: to shoot close object like ant. Wide Angle: create wide angle effect.

RED UNDERWATER LOMO

2010-08-10T18:58:00.000+08:00

OHMYGOD!!! I AM SOOOOOOOO HAPPY TODAY! I just bought an underwater LOMO with my own money! Sometimes I wonder, why is it there's soo many happiness happened in my life in these past few days huh? :D Let me show you some photos of my NEW RED UNDERWATER LOMO.

This kind of Lomo is actually the cheapest one, because you can buy iy with only about $12. There's no battery needed, but of course you need to use a roll film. And to load a roll film into it, honestly it's kinda difficult to me because it's my first time..hehe :). My father who actually know exactly how to load roll film is not at home, I can't even wait a single second to use it so I tried it myself and it works! Well actually after survive from hour and hour internet searchings!

So if you guys want this Lomo, no need to worry, it's not expensive, it's cheap. And you can get it in you local camera (maybe) store or you can go online shop! :D And this Lomo also available in other colors..take a look! What is your favorite? :)

WATCH ME FROM BEHIND

2010-07-22T19:02:00.000+08:00

I forgot when we hung out together! Gosh, I'm trying to remember but I cant'. Ohhkaaaay! Well finally I can wear my daddy's shirt porject. Actually it's not finished yet, you can see that I only finished to sew the first "C" hole on the back side of the shirt, and there you can see all the rest of it, and they are A LOOOOT. Yeah, it's so hard to sew the shirt and attaching white fabrics under it in the same time, sometimes it scrathes, and it might turn you crazy! Thats why I always use double tape to keep them still in place, or you can use pins too. The hole pattern is C, A and T which is the initials of my full name. Someday if I want to build a high-end fashion line, I would name the line C.A.T. Do you think it sounds cool? hehe :)

Well today was just a typical fun day to me. Yeah, watch movie, eat, yogurt sometimes, and ofcourse yes! Pizza! I always love pizza! :D Someday I swear I will be in Italy by my own money and I will eat the original pizza from its own bornland! Nice dream, hard work.

After for quite a while losing my spirit to buy my own DSLR cam, now I get the spirit back! And that's good, my handmade bag has been enhanced. I use good fabrics and use some layers so the bag don't look too loose. And my friends like it, or at least they didn't talk and complain! :) oh ya! And I'm gonna have a meeting with Ananta tomorrow to finish our handmade hairclip since we left them a month ago! What a bad business people! Still studying :) hehe

Well I think this is all for now, I hope you guys have a wonderful weekend. And oh ya! This is the most important part. Do you know the secret to be happy? Who knows? Okay now I'm telling you right away. You know, sometimes I get stressed from such a little stupid things that I faced through the day and how stupid I am that it's succesfully broke my day! I hope it doesn't happen in you life. So, the secret for being happy ALL DAY EVERY SINGLE DAY is.. THINK POSITIVE. You know what? Everytime you think of someting bad about your self, you think that something bad is gonna happen right to yourself or something like that, you're just HURTING youself! Wake up guys! I'm sure you are not stupids who let yourselves being hurt by your own mind, it's no good. And you know what? When I try this trick, IT WORKS. I am happy. Little things should not broke your wonderful days right? :)

IT'S TIME TO KARAOKE!

2010-07-22T18:00:00.001+08:00

Grey V-necked shirt, Number 61. Pants, black bag, Nevada. Black socks. Shoes, Nevada. Bracelet.

A week ago I got four karaoke freepass tickets by buying a lot of movie tickets in the cinema. The karaoke place is new, nobody really knows them well. But it is located in the luxury huge hotel, so I think it's such a stupid idea to just throw the tickets away. A few days later, I asked my friends, a lot of friends actually, to have karaoke together in Deluxe. The room was great! I love it. The sofa, the carpet, the everything! And it also had personal toilet inside the room, and I think it was pretty cool.

One of my friend bring her semi DSLR camera, and hell yeah, I'm jealous :( but well she's nice so she let me to use it hehe :)

At A&W

2010-07-14T02:50:00.001+08:00

Sorry for not updating my blog for fashion. Artha and me actually have time to do photoshoot but we just never have a perfect timing. When I got time, she got something to do, and when she got time I got something to do. Gosh! It's just no good. But thank God, when I was hanging out with my friends a few days ago, we did a photoshoot, a small photoshoot with a lot of fun. But she doesn't give me the photos yet, maybe I will post them 2 days later. But now I got a photo to show you guys. This one is taken by my friend, Laras. We were having some meals at a restaurant.

Me, Greyni and Laras.

Being inspired from other people is good. But it's such a bad idea if you just copy the whole things. You need to do it your own way.

I want this ...

2010-07-08T04:20:00.000+08:00

It's been for a while since I posted "I want ..." post, I guess I have too many wishes that never been come true. And now, I am crazy for this Sidekick mobile phone! It's just sooooo cool, I've seen in in many movies, American teenagers usually use this cell phone, and Miley Cyrus also has one. Take a look at the coolest mobile phone ever that is soo suitable for us, teens.

I don't even know what these cell phones' types, but I just adore them!

Well it's always on my top holiday desease list. Never never. Before I throw all my anger to my lovely reader, I better come up with the shoots soon. I hope you like it :)

After we swim, I was chilled and super hungry. After had a lovely warm bath then I got nothing to eat exept what you can see, yes, Qtela. But I ate them quickly I was too hungry! XD I think my face expression is just so funny in this pict! I can't even stop laughing! hahahhaha XD

A lovely quote by Laras Putri Handoko

2010-07-06T23:24:00.000+08:00

"I wish music played during epic moments of my life and not just in movies."

- Laras Putri Handoko -

Just found and decided my favorite quote of my life. It's from my friend, Laras. Do you guys know why do I always put my headphone on when I am walking down the street? It's because I want my life to be like movies. You guys know movies, they seems like always put some soundtracks to it to complete and make it perfect and that's what I always do every single day, well at least it doesn't always work, but I always need it. Maybe it's just me, but I really enjoy it when I was walking down the street with my favorite song playing through my headphone.

If you can see my playlists on my music player in my mobile phone, there would be two of them. They are "faves" and "pedestrian music". Faves is a playlist of all of my favorite songs and Pedestrian Music is a playlist that I always play when I was on my way to my chinese course because I usually walk to there if there's still more time. I always like to enjoy the afternoon. I love the sky, the brightness is just so perfect, it's starable and never hurt my eyes. And you know the smell of the air, the blowing wind, and the routinity that I've always been through, it's just so perfect. The point is, I really love to walk down the street when it's afternoon.

And oh ya! Maybe I should mention you guys about my favorite locations in my city. The first one would be the street along a supermarket, Freshmart head forward until you can see the sea. And you know? It's not beautiful, it's beyond beautiful! Especially in the morning. Oh gosh. I usally have this kind of happiness feeling when I was about go to school and it always brighten my day!

And the second one is the afternoon street few from my chinese course, Zhi Hua College full-glass door. Believe me, it's so beautiful when you look at the street in the afternoon.

And the third one is a few from my English Course, English Language Center. I have my english class in the afternoon. When I want to go there I always need to cross a small street until I reach the one-way street. And the thing that I like is that the one-way street is just so wide and beautiful. I'm not sure how I really notice the beautiness of all the things around me, but I just enjoy it.

Well I guess this is one of my longest post I've ever made because I barely write too much. Well I guess Laras has been inspire me a lot in typing this such text. Thank you to my lovely friend, Laras.

And if you want to read all of the wisse, funny, cute, interesting, school quotes, just visit her blog by clicking here

And I think I will soon update some photographs about all of my favourite places in my city. Caaaaaan't wait! :D

An one-day summer holiday!

2010-07-06T00:01:00.000+08:00

A few days ago I went to a hotel with my friends. We've planned to swim right there and have a lot of fun. Honestly it was my very first time to come to that hotel, because I barely go to hotel exept when I am on vacation out of the town. The service was nice and I liked the orange juice.

A sweety-sour orange juice welcomed three of us in Sedona Hotel.

Well I also brought my cute yellow smiley bubble to play with when I arrive there..hehe :) Btw it was really useful to play with with the green grass, love it. Below is one of my favorite pict! :D

I myself ain't sure what I was looking at, and this is a very weird expression of me I guess..haha XD

After swim for quite a long time there was a rain, a big rain. So we got back to the room. One of my friend booked a room to live in for a night with her family. Brrr...it was so cold. And when I was about get in to the room I thought it would be warmer and nice but in fact, oh ya, I forgot about the air conditioner, yes, it was sooooo damn cold inside the room and I was STILL wet! Gosh!

My answered questions

2010-07-05T00:34:00.000+08:00

1. Who is your favorite fashion icon? Mary Kate Olsen, Ashley Olsen and Agyness Deyn.

2. What is your favorite fashion item? Hat.

3. And why do you like wearing it? I dunno, it just like completes my style and I do like hats, I'm also collecting them.

4. What is your fashion don'ts? I almost got no fashion don'ts but I hate it when people wear something that got nothing to do with it, I mean something useless and even destroy their style. Like...a girl wearing a black dress with a black long necklace. I mean, people can't even see your necklace, it's totally useless! At least fashion is all about the way how you put the outfit together well. You can have all the latest high-end designer clothes, but when you can't wear them well, it's useless honey.

5. You don't like it to... wear sneakers (actually not only sneakers, all the shoes) without socks. Some people really wear their sneakers without any socks, and I don't like it. Not to mention that it's gross, but I just don't like it when the rough canvas inner surface of the shoes touch my feet skin.

6. If a genie gives one wish, what would it be? Gimme canon 550D DSLR cam, a tripod and some bonus lenses! (one sentence can be counted as one wish right? :P)

7. What are you about to do for this nearly time? A photoshoot with my friend, Artha.

I ADORE AGYNESS DEYN !!!

2010-07-01T02:28:00.001+08:00

What I really love from her is she's just soo different with her quirky style, it's often colorful and I like it! She put the outfits in a different way, that what I really like. Agyness Deyn the crazy supermodel! :D

She's bestfriend with an England designer, Henry Holland. She is also one of his model and she wears a lot of Holland, well it's kinda promoting on the other side.

Stripes

2010-07-01T00:19:00.000+08:00

My DIY pants. FYI it took a quite long time to finish it.

Aaand I save the only one picture that taken by me as the last one.

Stripey shirt, my sister's belonging. Red hat, unbranded. Pants, DIY. Red socks, unbranded. Shoes, Nevada.

When I saw this stripey shirt, I was fall in love. Actually it was not mine, it was my father's. Aaand someone put it inside the old wardrobe in my old house. Sometimes I go there to have my break when it is holiday and picking up some clothes that I like, aaand I saw this stripey shirt. Unfortunately I was too late and my sister was the first one to pick it up, so now it's hers, but well i can still borrow it from her.

I'm sooo lucky to have this glowing yellow hat because surely it really rises up my look. I usually wear it when I want a totally fancy look or even just to make my look looks better and not too simple.

I even only bought it in a mall, you know sometimes there's embroidery counter that you can find in there. They sell uniform or hats, and they also offer embroidery services right for the items that you buy. Well, I bought two hats, and I got a very cheap price, but I forget how much it was but I know that it was soo cheap. Sometimes I never find any clothes or shoes or hats that I want, I mean of course they are available in the market and I can surely buy it whenever I can but it's just not like what I really want, they're too usual, nothing's special (but sometimes I do find). So day by day I more often to make my own outfit by myself, and I think it's pretty cool for now.

Oooohkay! Back to the point.

Well Artha and me did a dawn photoshoot today and I'm gonna show you :D

There's an unfinished room in there, so we thought it was a great place to take shoots :)

Well I gues I'm a little bit obsessed about rolled up pants! I dunno why, I just like it. And when I know that rolled up pants has been shown to runway, I'm sure it's gonna be a trend. It's kinda like these past few days my style was always arounding by it.

These past few days (nono! i mean everyday!) I was missing my camera soooo much! Now I'm kinda confusing about decision that I already made, not to fix the old cam and working so hard to save money to buy my very first DSLR and I know that it's not easy, it's a lot of hard working that I have to do.

Well there's a good news. A handmade bag by me is just sold by my friend. She bought it and she likes it, thank God. Then I can save my money..hmm

Oh ya, I've dreaming to have my own sewing machine. And you know what? A few days ago I was like pleasing God to give me sewing machine and it only takes a single day to make it happen. Right the next day, I encouraged myself to ask my mother to buy it for me. I said "Mum, can you buy me a sewing machine, I do need it." and she answered "Oh! We even have two, they're downstairs in the" I WAS SOOOO BEYOND SHOCK! How stupid that I never saw it! There are two sewing machines in my house! Well actually it's not my house, it's my autie's house that's why I kinda not-really-know the places in here. I hope my autie will give it to me when I ask her to :).

Well on the other side, I feel like much more comfortable to use my own hand to sew. Because I'm sewing bags and not clothes, and, well I don't even know how to explain it but my hand-sewing stitches is much better, because it merges the fabrics, it's not that the machine doesn't do the same thing, it's just mine is better I think..hehe :)

And suddenly I just realized that my motto is "Handmade with love" so no machine is needed, thats right, no machine, keep up on that cliff!

Oh ya! Now we're going too much far from the point! hahahha XD I'm posting this post just because I'm missing my old cam, so gotta show you some of my best picts which are taken by it :D. ENJOY!

Just found a super wonderful japanese street style website, Fashion Japan. They took random people's style and this website is totally rocommended for the japanese style lover. Here are they, some of my faves looks.

*Btw, today I bought a Bubble toy! hahahaha.. It's soo nice to get what you've been dreaming for such a long time. And my Bubble seems like it's gonna end up soon because I keep blowing it. Not as what I've expected before about how Lilo will react about bubble, LILO HATES BUBBLE. Too bad because I hope too much but I'm HAPPY anyway.
