Behance

Sorry for the long gap between this post and the previous one. Well, it actually happens often but this time, I really feel bad because Elis Smirnoff from love me, Jaded said "you ought to blog more often woman!!!". So so sorry. But I promise, if I do have spare time, I will def post something here.

Anyway, yesterday me and my friends joined IDS (International Design School) High Year Book Competition #2.



Too bad we didn't win. But well, it's okay, it really got me to think about my school year book more. So while we were waiting for the relults, we went to Starbucks because we actually wanted to use its free wifi and searched for some cover ideas. We ended up finding so many cool graphic designs, and I want to share some of them with you guys here






Write a Bike by Juri Zaech. Well I now, it is not year book cover material (mostly pictures I post here are not either), but it's still cute, right?



Type Treat by Alex Beltechi. This one looks so... um delicious hahahha



Super Happy Times by Jordan Metcalf. If only I can draw like these.

Well to be honest, there are still many many cool designs I found, but I think if I keep on posting it, it will take you too long to open my page. So, in case you are interested, you can find this kind of design here. Hope you like it :)

P.S : Thank you so much for your supports on my last post. I feel really glad :D

Wait and See!

I am the kind of girl who enjoys reading books, but never writes her own book.
I am the kind of girl who loves art, but never creates her own art work.
I am the kind of girl who likes music, but never learn how to play any instruments.
I am the kind of girl who admires clothes in fashion magazines, but never really have the gut to wear those things.
I am the kind of girl who can spend a lot of money in dvds cause she loves movies so much, but never try to make her own film.

I am the kind of person who is just an audience, never an actress. I watch everyone get success, clap for them, congratulate them, wondering how good life is for people like them, and that’s it. I never try to make my own successful story. I thought it’s just the way I am. But then I realized. I can change. I can write my own story. An amazing journey to my wonderful success. And I guess, you all just need to wait and see! ;)

Currently



Craving for 'Thirteen Reasons Why' book. This is about a set of audiotapes sent by a girl named Hannah Baker, who just commited suicide. Two weeks after that incident, Clay Jensen, Hannah's classmate and a boy who once had a crush on her, returns home from school to find a mysterious box with his name on it lying on his porch. Inside he discovers cassette tapes recorded by Hannah. On tape, Hannah explains that there are thirteen reasons why she decided to end her life. Clay is one of them. If he listens, he’ll find out how he made the list.

There are some quotes from this book I really like, but these two are my favorite.
"You don’t know what goes on in anyone’s life but your own. And when you mess with one part of a person’s life, you’re not messing with just that part. Unfortunately, you can’t be that precise and selective. When you mess with one part of a person’s life, you’re messing with their entire life. Everything. . . affects everything."
"If you hear a song that makes you cry and you don't want to cry anymore, you don't listen to that song anymore. But you can't get away from yourself. You can't decide not to see yourself anymore. You can't decide to turn off the noise in your head."
I really am craving for this book. According to the reviews I read on Goodreads, this book is like one of the most quality Young Adult book.


In love with He is We. It's an indie-pop group- well actually it only consists of two people, Rachel Taylor and Trevor Kelly. They are so amazing, really. I can't stop listening to their songs lately. Check them out on their purevolume page. It's recommended to all of you who love sweet-and-cute-acoustic music.

Feeling so low because I heard that in order to get into FSRD ITB (a design faculty in ITB, one of the best university in Indonesia) this year - and I'm pretty sure it also occurs for the next 3 years or so - we have to take social program, or at least study social studies, karena masuknya lewat jalur IPS, jadi materi yang diujikan adalah pelajaran IPS!! Helloo, I'm a student in science program, which means I have to study both science and social studies if I want to make it to FSRD ITB. For more info, click here. Kenapa USM harus dihapus sekarang sih? :'(

Happy New Year

Happy New Year everyone!!
Hope we all will have a great year ahead! :D














These pictures were taken at Mama Nali's villa - where my big family and I celebrated NYE - by me and my brother.

Today was the first day of school in 2011. It wasn't that bad actually, but still, I felt so sleepy. Well maybe it's because in this holiday I've been used to sleep late, wake up early, then sleep all day, wake up, sleep late at night, wake up early, and there goes the cycle. Gosh why does holiday ends so fast?
