Pencil vs Camera

I'm going to be 17 on the last day of this month. Yep, 17. You know in some country people say you turn into an adult when you're 16. Or maybe 18. But in my country, it happens when you turn 17. I'll get an ID card. So yes, it's kinda big for me. I don't think I'm ready yet. *sigh*

Anyway, let's move on. Do you know Ben Heine? I won't blame you if you don't. Me myself just happened to know him this afternoon when I was browsing deviantArt. He is an amazing artist. He has so many lovely artworks on his deviantArt gallery, but my favorite is on his Penvil vs Camera album. It's so cool I can't even describe it. So you might have to see it yourself. Here are some of the pictures in that album.

See? Those are amazing, right? So, come on. go to his deviantArt gallery. Or maybe to his website. It's worth it :)

Music Update

Yesterday was filled with happiness! :D

In the morning, I went to Adrie Subono's house (the owner of a well-known music promotor in Indonesia, JavaMusikindo) to buy a concert ticket. The concert which A Rocket to the Moon, The Downtown Fiction, and Hey Monday will perform together on May 14th 2011.

sorry for the bad quality. I didn't have time to scan it, so I just took the picture by my webcam :p

I just can't wait until that day. :D

In the evening, I went to my best friend's house with my another best friend to made something I really love. I gotta tell you about it later. For now, it's still a secret between us ;)

Anyway, have you guys heard about Steve Salazar?

These Websites Make My Bad Mood Goes

School's been driving me crazy. Not because of the subjects, assignments, teachers, and so on (even though those things do add my stress level), but it's because of the government had changed the system of the way to apply to university. They changed it a couple months ago actually, but now I'm freaking out because many teachers (in school and even in my course) are talking about it.

To make me feel better, I want to make something. So, when I got home this Friday (which means the last day of school this week, yaay!), I looked for great websites providing some recipes, DIY things, art stuffs, and so on. I found so many of it, but these two are my favorite.

1. Ming Makes Cupcakes

I really love this website. Ming gives us good pictures and simple how-to(s) that even people who were actually not interested on baking at the first place, would want to do it after seeing this website. There are 33 cupcake recipes and they all look so yummy. This website also provides 6 cookie recipes and 3 savoury recipes. And I'm pretty sure these numbers will keep on growing as soon as Ming finds another recipes.

2. Papercrave

Paper cravings. Yes I always love this thing. And one thing I really love about this website is because of its gift wrap ideas. These are the samples :

Father's Day Shirt & Bow Tie and Grocery Bag Gorgeous

So what do guys think? Do you have any favorite websites for recipes, DIY things or art stuffs? Tell me about it! :)

P.S : I just found this online store named Yozo Craft and I really love it, especially its charms. And the best of all is, the charms are cheap and free shipping!! For example, this cute and unique set of Lovely Little Scissors only costs US$1.60

Uuh if only I have a credit card, I'm pretty sure I would buy so many things there. You all have to check it out!
