October, 22nd 2013

I think you deserve a post in my blog. For everything that’s been going on, for simply just being there. Thank you for making me happy, for the laughs and hopeless nights, and silly pictures we’re taking.

Happy Birthday Bayu Gilang 🙂

 

Begin Again

Every time I flashback for 2012, I found a lot of stories to tell, up and down, goodbye, tears, love, friendship, I could say 2012 was a rollercoaster year!

I got a new job in an advertising agency where I made some really good friends, a new lover, a cool boss, and a series of unforgettable adventures. They’re  like my second family right now. But, sometimes good things didn’t last long for there were some management changes in the company and some of us decided to resign and go to different way. Well, it’s life, life’s full of changes, and you just gotta live with it and do what you think is right. I decided to stay, until another door opens for a new opportunity.

So, what’s still pending for 2013?

I have my 100 things to do before I die list and working on it, slowly, hehehe.

My college final project must have done in 2013. It’s been too long paused.

Gain some weight, I just feel too skinny and I hate my flat butt!

And there’s some ‘me’ projects on my mind that I’m not ready to shared yet.

–

That was a fun year. Less sleep, more laugh, more alive. Let’s begin again.

I wish you have a great year ahead, and don’t forget to have fun!

The baking class was held by Urbanesia with Cooking Plus and I had a really great time, thank you guys!

Time Stops Ticking at Tick Tock

Beberapa tahun lalu, ketika saya berkunjung ke Grand Indonesia, saya tidak sengaja melewati deretan toko di Level One dengan tampilan depan yang unik dan menarik, salah satunya adalah Tick Tock.

.

Tick Tock menghadirkan beragam pilihan koleksi jam dengan desain modern, mulai dari jam dinding, jam meja, hingga jam yang bisa dipesan secara custom. Namun, yang paling membuat saya terkesan adalah bagaimana mereka menata jam-jam tersebut dengan cara yang unik dan dikolaborasikan dengan pernak-pernik lainnya yang membuat saya sangat terkesan dengan Tick Tock. Setelah itu, setiap saya pergi ke Grand Indonesia, saya pasti selalu menyempatkan diri untuk mengunjungi Tick Tock.

Setelah sekian lama tidak berkunjung ke Level One, akhirnya saya mendapatkan tugas untuk membahas tentang concept store, dan toko yang langsung muncul di benak saya adalah Tick Tock. Akhirnya, kemarin saya dengan sengaja pergi ke Level One, namun ternyata deretan toko di Level One ditutup dan akan digantikan dengan restoran, dan dari informasi yang saya dapatkan ternyata Tick Tock sudah pindah ke Plaza Indonesia.

.

Di tempat yang baru ini, Tick Tock menempati tempat yang lebih luas dan dengan konsep baru yang tak kalah unik. Saat masuk ke dalam toko, saya merasa seperti sedang berada di sebuah taman, lengkap dengan bangku dan meja rotan berwarna putih dan dedaunan yang menghiasi diding batanya. Di toko yang baru ini Tick Tock juga menghadirkan benda-benda unik selain jam seperti kotak musik, pajangan, kotak penyimpanan, dan pigura. Namun, yang paling menarik perhatian saya tentu saja koleksi jam mereka. Disana terdapat jam-jam berukuran besar yang memenuhi satu sisi dinding toko. Bagian ini mengingatkan saya kepada mesin waktu. Dengan desain yang sangat unik, setiap jam seperti berasal dari era dan tempat yang berbeda dan membuat saya ingin pergi ke tempat asal jam tersebut.

.

Ada satu jam meja yang sangat menarik perhatian saya karena bentuknya seperti roda-roda mesin dan baru saya temukan di tempat ini. Namun apa daya, harga benda-benda di toko ini memang cukup tinggi, dan menurut saya memang wajar karena berdasarkan sang penjaga toko, jumlah tiap unitnya terbatas dan impor dari luar negeri. Tanpa terasa, saya menghabiskan hampir 20 menit di dalam toko tersebut, memperhatikan benda-benda di toko itu. Time’s really stop ticking at Tick Tock, the store is very memorable and I’m surely gonna coming back there!

Hello friends,

I wanna share two books that really caught my attention lately. They are “Membunuh Indonesia: Konspirasi Global penghancur Kretek” and “Perempuan Berbicara Kretek”. Both of the books talk about the tobacco industry in Indonesia. The first book is controversial because it provides you some shocking facts about the industry and history of Kretek (a kind of cigarette-Indonesian cigarette). Since these books are controversial, esp the first, you won’t find it in the bookstore nowadays, they’re banned. If you’re curious, you can buyt it here, it’s the only online bookstore that still sell these books, I bought it there too.

Anyway,

I found a very talented illustrator. Oh how I love his artwork. Huebucket aka Chalermphol H. Here’s one of my favorite.

Anyway,

Currently, I’m listening to Chris Brown’s new album, FORTUNE, it’s kickin ass wohooo!

See ya on the next post 😀

I wish I never let my heart win. Another brick on the wall, another chain on the door.

I wish I’m okay. This bad season’s gonna end soon, I believe.

 

 

Memories

I just bought a pair of new shoes and I realized that I already have too many shoes. It’s really hard to say no to shoes.

Anyway, Dera is back from Sydney and we’ll meet soon. So many things to catch up and wow time flies so fast and we’re getting older.

Sometimes, memories can be cruel. But the older you get, the wiser you are handling all those cruel memories. That’s the point of being a grown up.

Welcome home Dera, have a great holiday!

There’s no other blogsite

A friend asked me why do I use wordpress, and not tumblr instead.

When I started writing in a blog (like 5 or 6 years ago), the most popular blogsite are blogspot and wordpress. I’ve tried blogspot, multiply, tumblr and some blogsites, but WordPress actually my first blog and turns out the only blog I keep managed until now. I deleted my blogspot and my tumblr is abandoned.

The reason why I still love wordpress is because I use my blog for my writing, and wordpress give exactly what I need, a blog for writing. That’s just enough for me. And I think wordpress has far more great blog writers than other blogsites, you can find some of the best at its homepage.

I found out blogspot is too cluttered, tumblr is crowded with blogger-who-only-reblog-others, so this blog is still the best for me. And I’ve tried to managed several blog at a time and it didn’t work out for me (hail to those who can).

One at a time is make your life simpler 🙂
