Hi there!

It's been a really long time since I last posted here. A lot has happened, and here's the big news:

I'm moving to tumblr.

Yes, tumblr. Why tumblr? At first I opened tumblr just to browse for beautiful photos and such, and then the World Cup 2010 happened and tumblr is the perfect place for fangirls like me (beside livejournal), and then I found out that tumblr is much, much, much easier for blogging than blogger. *sorry to say, but this is just an opinion*

And so, here's my new blog. Please do check it out :) I really appreciate it.

SO LONG, SUCKAZZZ

At the Train Station

Conductor: Please stand clear of the closing doors. (pause) Please stand clear of the closing doors. (pause) Station police officer, please apprehend the man holding the doors in the 6th car. (pause, then doors close) Hahaha, that always works.

--B Train

MTA engineer: Please use all exits. For the love of god, people, use all the doors to get out of the train. What the fuck, people, use the doors. Thank you.

--G Train

Disgruntled subway conductor: Listen up, y'all! This train needs to move! Do not try to hold open the doors! Do not run at closing doors! Do not stick anything in the doors! That includes arms, legs, obnoxiously expensive purses, children, animals, whatever! Let's go!

Conductor: Please stand clear of the doors or it will bruise yo face.

Baking, So-Called Reunion, School Uniform, Crushes, Concert.

'Yello there matey! Since I changed my blog template menjadI bernuansa lautan (or pirate is more like it) aku menyapa kalian dengan cara seperti barusan. oke nggak penting. By the way, have you take a look at the title? Aku membagi postingan ini dengan kategori seperti yang dituliskan di judulnya. Jadi bersiap2 saja ya karena postingan ini agak panjang hehehe.

BAKING

Aaaaand since i promised you guys that i will put the photos when i baked some cookies up, so there they go! First Im sorry that I took the pictures only when they were done. So I dont have the pictures when i made them. So suit yourselves :B

The background in the first photo is made by me (hoho). I made it at school and the title is Mitoguy! He's a creature my friend and I invent, and Mitoguy has a girlfriend called Mitogirl! and my friend painted Mitogirl while I painted Mitoguy. Anyway, the cookies are like lollipops, they have got stick that went through them (just like a lollipop). The background in the second photo is made by my baby brother, Umar (he's 5). Well I just put up the background so the photo won't be so stiff teehee!

And there are the rest of the cookies. The icing looks great, doesnt it? Im kinda proud of myself (sorry about the narcism...) And I made meringues out of the unused icing. Here are the pictures:

And my brother saw this and he asked me to make a meringue that shaped like Optimus Prime so.... yeah I succeeded to make him that.

wiwiwiwiwiwiwiwiwiwiwiwiwi!!! Next time i bake i will put up the photos again :D

SO-CALLED REUNION

2 days ago (if im not mistaken) my friend Rinaldi invited us for a Supercamp reunion but guess what? He couldn't go! That's just great. Reaaaal great. And the worst part is; he sent a message about this reunion on facebook, but no one replied. I thought maybe they would go, or maybe some of them had already informed rinaldi that they couldn't go. But apparently, I was wrong. It seemed that no one knows about this reunion!! Sheez what a mess. That completely ruined my mood. I wanted to call some of my friends but I was afraid that they were already at school and what if I annoy them, so I didn't call (my number 1 mistake that day). Sooo all I knew was going, it was Geoffrey. He's a foreigner from the US but apparently he goes to Indonesia like every years on summer? Anyway, my sister was supposed to go too, but my baby brother was like "aaa I want mbak Dila to stay!! she has to stay!! Otherwise I'll be alone!" so my sister didn't go as well. So... yeah, I went to Senayan City alone. I met Geoff at 12.30 and we strolled around the mall. We went back to the meeting point, no one was there. I asked Rinaldi who's coming and who's not but all he said to me was "ask them for yourself!" argh I was so angry at Rinaldi that day. Apparently he ALSO didn't know who's coming! I was so stressed. Okay. Then I had lunch at Pepper Lunch with Geoff. We were waiting for Rainer, the only one who was coming beside us. He was at school (dia negeri, jadi udah masuk tanggal 13) and he would be there by 3. So I strolled around the mall again with Geoff. Good time though, because you see, he was my summer crush :B but too bad he was in a relationship with his friend so... yeah. Anyway, we had Blizzard Ice Creams from Dairy Queen. I accompanied him to sport stores because he said he was looking for a new pair of shoes and backpack. I saw some good pairs of shoes. I'll tell my dad later. At last Rainer came and we watched Ice Age 3 together. It was really funny! I went home after the movie ended. Anyway, my second mistake that day was I didn't talk much. I was too amazed and my heart bet faster (because I was with Geoff half of the time) so I was like "haaaaaaa" anyway he grew taller and cuter :B he was very nice and he talked about this and that in his hometown, and also his whole summer vacation. Like, they've only got a mall there and it only has 2 floors (and his girl friends were like "wow i wanna live there! They've got big malls!"), what they did with their school's fountain, what they do in winter (snow sliding), what they do for fun (playing around with wheelchairs -..-), american-football accidents, and so on. It was reaaaally fun listening to him. He also told me that he was half-German. That is why his name is Weiss which means White in German. Anyway, well, I had a crush on him :D There is something I regret though, that I didn't talk much. Because when I got home I was like "Shouldve said this, that, blab blab blab". Phew. So maybe we only strolled around the mall. But it felt like a date to me hohohohoho.

SCHOOL UNIFORM

Anyway, I went to the tailor today. Untuk menjahit batik menjadi kemeja. ha ha. I don't know why but that statement looks funny to me LOL. Al-Izhar's new school uniform sucks! Modelnya tuh aneh banget deh pokoknya. Dan sama gitu seragam SMA SMP. Kan gak seru sama gitu sama adek kelas (hehe). Dan aku belom beli keperluan sekolah lagi! My dad has been busy all this summer, and he was sick (he's now okay though). But we haven't been anywhere ever since. Chuu. Padahal udah butuh nih, school starts at 21, Dad! Help me!

CRUSHES

Sooo I told you guys that Geoff was my crush :B there is one more though. Can't say his name, sorry. BUT!!! Ada gitu deh adek kelasku yang suka dia juga krr krr. Aku tau sih, karena......... ada deh! Anyway, sepertinya tipe cowokku dan adek kelasku itu sama. Aku tau juga sih, karena.. ada deh! haha keterangannya nggak bertambah. Biarin deh, after all dia adek kelasku. Pasti takut kan sama saya?! HUH?!? Haha tiba2 ngomong saya.

CONCERT

Last but not least... Concert. There's this band called Phoenix and I like them. My sister likes them too. And DING! They are going to held a gig here in Indonesia!! So we bought the tickets to their concert. But suddenly my sister was aware that Aksara was the one who invited (or maybe provided) them to come here. The event is called Beatfest 2009. But!! Last year's Beatfest was only for 18+. We don't know for sure if Beatfest 2009 is only for 18+ until my sister saw the poster. The writing "18+" was really big and it also says: "Bring your ID/ Driver's License". This is like a nightmare. Okay, so I am underage. But the worst part is... since I am underage, I DON'T HAVE AN ID OR DRIVER'S LICENSE YET! How am I going to get in there? This is really freaking me out. I mean, what would you do if you have already bought a ticket to your DREAM concert, and then you realized that it was only for 18+ and you were still an underage??? Guys, I need your opinion here so if you read this post and you are willing to help, I will never thank you enough :')

Anyway, Im not listening to a song. But this song has been my favorite song since... Monday? The song is called So Little Time by Arkana. Here is my favorite part of the song; the chorus:

So little time, so much to do

I'd rather spend my days with you.

So little time, so much to do

I'd like to spend one day with you,

and if that day is not enough,

maybe we can stay in touch

but Im not making plans for tomorrow

For tomorrow never comes!

And my current obsession? Still, Hunter Parrish! xoxo. Bye everyone!

'~'

Hey aliens! hoho. Okay this will be just a quick update!

um um I havent taken a shower since the morning, and what time is it now? Um let's see it's 5 p.m huhuh JOROK. oke emang jorok tapi dari kemaren ngga bisa tidur cepet nih '~' u know, insomnia liburan? dan ini sangat mengganggu rutinitas ku yang rata2 bangun jam 8 pagi. kenapa? karena abis beraktivitas pagi such as eat breakfast, watching morning shows on tv, do some stretching dan berleyeh-leyeh... setelah itu pasti ngantuk, yep. lalu ketiduran sampe jam 1 siang. begitu aja lho! dan sudah 2 hari ini berlanjut, sampai2 oma berkomentar bahwa aku adalah seekor kebo. memang sepertinya aku adalah kebo tulen... kalo hari sekolah juga susah bangun, kecuali dibangunin sama the mighty mother! yay, pintu kamarku menghadap ke lorong dan aku adalah penakut. perlu diulang? penakut. daaaaan ibu kalo ngebangunin pasti ngebuka pintu dengan cara menjeblak, ngebangunin "Deeeeek bangun!!!" and she will leave the door open. Menghadap ke lorong yang masih gelap! tentu saja itu menakutkan. karena itu aku pasti bangun karena ketakutan (i know it's weird but that actually happens). dan I have been living la vida loca since my mum went to the Netherlands to continue her education of HIV/AIDS in Children there (my mum is a pediatrician). I shop only with my sister (which means we're like "CLOTHES! IT'S EVERYWHERE! Wait... We should shop smartly. Wait again... MUM'S NOT HERE" and we're like "woohoo this is cute! will this look good? Is it worth it? Um.. I don't think so........ BUT I WILL TAKE THIS" daaaan karenanya ada beberapa baju yang sekarang mendekam di lemari karena bingung mau pake kapan dan tidak yakin akan dipakai dalam waktu dekat. huhu Im sorry mum, but that's why you shouldn't leave us here alone with dad (who is too busy taking care of our baby brother) because nobody controls us! Well that's okay as long as she does her best on her education... I love you mum.

anyway karena ceritanya berlanjut kemana mana, inti cerita di atas sampe lupa kuberi tau. intinya: karena ketiduran sampe jam 1 siang, jadi males mandi jadinya digabung sama sore aja ah mandinya ahaha JOROK!

So my sister and I have been wanting to watch this show, "I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here" karena iklannya menarik. pas nonton rupanya memang menarik! dan aku sangat senang melihat Sanjaya Malakar karena dia lucu! Dan aku akhirnya tau bahwa Spencer Pratt and his wife Heidi Pratt are such losers! mereka tuh ngeluh gitu dan nyampah banget! oke Heidi masih gapapa deh karena dia cewek (haha sexist abis gua) tapi i dunno, they both look fake and they both are trying too hard to be cool. Heidi tries too hard to look cute and Spencer tries too hard to be hardcore! masalahnya mereka sama sekali nggak banget! baru hari pertama Spencer udah lose his head dan marah2 to the hole camp. Well maybe the other campers juga agak gimana sih karena mereka ambil barang2 Speidi wheh they were away TAPI KAN!!! huh. lalu mereka tuh selalu bilang kayak "my wife", "my husband", ugh PLEASE every1 knows u r married! who wants to marry Spencer anyway? cukuran dulu deh mas! bahkan Janice Dickinson aja nggak sejijik itu sama nature.

Anyway, speaking of campers.. besok mau ada reunian Supercamp 08 di Senayan city! woohoo. asiiiik ngapain ya? paling cuma makan2 aja sih. mungkin nonton film tapi mau nonton apa ya? Hoho. it's gonna be fun! Yay!

Lalu tanggal 21 nanti adalah hari pertama jadi murid SMA. uuu rasanya badanku terlalu kecil untuk jadi anak SMA. tunggu.. rasanya PIKIRANKU terlalu kecil untuk jadi anak SMA... haha ya i know kayak "sok childish banget sih" tapi... yah, a little confession, aku masih enjoy kalo disuruh main di myscene.com lho! hahaha.

oke abis ini mau aikido jadi kurasa segini dulu deh. haha sorry ya for this so-called quick update! abis keseruan cerita sih jadi kepanjangan deh hehehe. anyway I just bought the book Inkheart yesterday! The movie was good jadi pasti bukunya lebih bagus lagi! hehe

Long Live Hunter Parrish!!

tidak tahu judulnya apa

Yay! earlier today i baked some cookies! and my Aunt made some doughnuts. my Aunt helped me with things but basically i did like three-quarter part of the job, yay! and the doughnuts are made of potatoes. well not just potatoes, but ya know, things? ha ha. I'll put up the photos later!

I was supposed to be at Ghea's this morning at 11 a.m. but I couldn't make it. Sunday is my driver's day off and he didn't answer my phone calls. I wanted to ask my dad to drop me off at Ghea's but he couldn't go to work as well (he's a doctor) because he is sick. Get well soon daddy :x hee hee.

My aunt (yes, the same auntie who helped me bake <- she's my Baking Guru! Lol, and yes, we spend a lot of time together.. Auntie Nurul xoxo) is currently sewing a hand-made bag. She found the pattern on a blog, Lula Louise. The genius behind this blog is named Beth. I was scrolling through her blog when I found good tutorials (well actually i didn't understand half of her way of sewing...) on making your own home-made clothes! She is a genius! And she makes cute dresses, tops, and even bags. I salute you, Beth. Well, she reminds me that my grandma still has old magazines from the 50s. No kidding. but the magazines are in foreign language (i believe it's Dutch) so they are kinda hard to read. I guess I'll just hafta ask my grandma to translate them for me. I hope the magazines have clothes pattern. I love vintage clothes!

and last but not least.... congratulation to my girl DIBA!!! hehehe she got accepted at the high school she wanted to go to! Happy for you, Dibs! xoxo

I am still obsessed with Hunter Parrish, teehee <3

Im getting things straight.

hey guys I'm sorry for the lack of posts. I've been really busy this month and i haven't checked on my blog, my facebook account.... ARGH! this UAN thing is freaaaaakin me out. WISH ME THE BEST OF LUCK!!!

anyway, you know that i went to dufan with my friends, doncha? i mean from the photos? anyway if you don't, well ima tell you some of the good times when i went there. Sasha, Ega, Jeje, and I, we like this Indonesian band called D'Masiv. i dunno, their songs are really cool. and by we mean cool, we meant cool cool. like, different from the other kacangan Indonesian band. AND when we went to Dufan, we ate dinner at Le Bridge, Ancol. There's a cafe near there. and.. D'Masiv were there!!! holyarsehole! we were superduperhysterical!!! we weren't allowed to go into the cafe, so we watched D'Masiv performed their songs from behind the fences. we sang along and we had a lot of fun and great experience. ...BUT!!!

One day gemi told me that she likes a song called Her Morning Elegance by Oren Lavie, an Israeli singer. She likes that song coz she has seen the video and it was awesome: click here. anyway, i watched that video on YouTube and it IS good. Then i remembered some video that i've seen but never opened it ever since, and i searched and watched it. I watched Mutemath's Typical video.

AND i was watching Switchfoot's Awakening video when i realized there were comments about this vid in bahasa. They say "drumnya d'masiv diam tanpa kata ngejiplak drumnya lagu ini" and i was "WHAT THE HECK?" i searched for d'masiv video right away. and gues what i found?

I found this

You see, i was shocked. real shocked. I liked D'masiv and you don't know how i love switchfoot. i was hurt. I found out that D'masiv steals songs. 2 songs by Switchfoot can you imagine that??? i mean, i dunno if you like switchfoot or not, but hell, what would you do when you found out your favorite band's songs were copied by a trashy-crappy unknown and underdog band??? I was so pissed, I wrote about this on Twitter.

I am so embarrassed, so regretful that I USED TO LIKE D'MASIV I EVEN SING ALONG WHEN I HEAR THEIR SONG ON TV!!! i read comments for that video. Most of them are cursing how trashy, crappy, idiot, and stupid D'masiv is. YES i love you guys who wrote those comments. I feel betrayed. EWH SIAPA SIH YANG SUKA SAMA PLAGIAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! And you know what?? not only Switchfoot's, they also copies other band's song such as MCR's, Lifehouse's, Muse's, and Incubus' song.

What really gets me on the nerve, is that they copies my favorite Switchfoot's song, which is Awakening. Maybe they thought Indonesian people know nothing about Switchfoot. They are wrong! Stupid horrendous cows! Now, I officially hate D'masiv.

Okay, so there you have it. It's no use anyway, talking about D'masiv. They don't even admit this. They said that they were influenced by them, not copying their songs. whatevs, it's no use for me anyway. go to hell, sucker.

As you know, I'm having big tests this week. Big big tests. yeah, UAN. wish me the best of luck! I'll wish you best of luck too :D anyway i have a new eye candy!!! his name is Hunter Parrish. I tell ya, he's a real heartthrob.

Well, as you can see, the title of this entry is Im getting things straight. Not actually tho. Im just trying straighten people's perspective of me. My sister once asked why do I post in english, not in Bahasa. well, by writing in English, Im obviously improving my english. i know I'm not fluent enuf. I make mistakes, but hey, failing is part of learning rite? :D

one more thing, I'm actually a very shy person. People think that Im cocky and stuff, well, i'm being indifferent because i am shy. I'm also a very sensitive person. I try to hide my feelings from others when I feel bad or sad, i don't wanna be other's burden to bear. I love to hear what people are thinking (curhat or stuff) but I don't really give them good advice. I try tho, I give them simple solution whether that helps or not. Im just trying to help my friend :) but sometimes my feelings are shown on my face. darn you face! i think that's why people call me cartoon-faced girl. Some friends say that I'm expressively showing my feelings.

Okay i think i have to end this. tell you folks more later! gotta study to get good scores. tomorrow's exam is math. I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST OF LUCK! We'll get 100 for math!!! AMIN YA ALLAH!

Current song on my iTunes... Chambermaid Swing by Parov Stelar

Today's object of obsession... Sondre Lerche and his songs. Listen to Hell No feat Regina Spektor, you'll love it.

Sorry sorry sorry!

Heeeey I'm really really sorry I haven't posted for, like, a zillion years. haha lebay. I've been very busy with school lately. This year Im gonna do the National Tests dan ini menguras pikiran banget untuk belajar. Good grades are everything!!!

...and I really hate the thought that me and my friends are going to be separated :( it's reaaaally sad. I mean, we do everything together. kemana2 selalu bareng gitu. terus cerita2 juga bareng. kayaknya bakal ada yang kurang kalo some of them are not here anymore gitu. soalnya kalo jumlahnya berkurang.... yeah you know what I mean lah hehe. tapi enough selfishness, mereka kan ada yang udah diterima di their dream schools :D I'm happy for you guys!

Fortunately I have a very good chance to spend good times with them. We're going to go to Bali together! yay! sebelumnya aku ga boleh pergi. masalah ini itu deh. tapi alhamdulillah my dad says yes...........on the last minutes. sayang my beloved best friends ada yang ga boleh pergi, so maybe going to Bali is half-fun in the sun.

On the other hand... kalo aku ke Bali, aku bisa ketemuan sama my Scamp friends yang pada tinggal di Bali, kayak Aldo, Adam, Mike sama Ivan. Yeah, mini reunion. itu pun kalo ketemu sih. so I'm pretty excited. WAIT!! don't forget to study. kalo belajarnya malah kelupaan nilai2 bisa ambles nih. btw, congrats for my friend Indra, he got the 1st rank on Try Out Bahasa Indonesia with the score 98. cool.

Too Lazy to Name this Entry's Title

Besok LTS!!! Hwawawawaw deg2an.

Well, now I'm counting down to UAN! takuuuuuuut... My dad says keep self-talking to myself (the good thing, of course) and a magazine said that magic spells work. Magic spells here means self-talk. Kalo aku bilang aku bisa, aku pasti bisa! AMIN. Just need to study harder than before. Hello? it's not that ordinary daily tests. It's national!!! SEMOGA AKU BISA AMIN AMIN AMIN deg2an paraaaah!

btw besok itu pengumuman penerimaan siswa baru smai alizhar. Wish my friends good luck! Hope they will get accepted there :)

mmmmm tapi bosen banget di alizhar lagi. I wanted to go to SMAN 28, tapi I got...umm scholarship or whatever you call it..di alizhar. jadi yaudah, kata bapakku sekalian aja di situ. Lagian my sister goes to school there jadi ya sudahlah. Sedih deh me and my friends will be parted :( ada yang mau ke tarki, SMAN 28, labsky, SMAN 34, Binus, dll. Hope we will never forget each other. you guys are the ones who keep me going to school. love you guys always and forever :D

Stealing Time from Studying

I follow John Mayer on Twitter, and here is one of his updates which is my favourite;

You know you've had a great day when you don't want to sleep because you're too excited to go to black.

I'm having Try Out Tests tomorrow, so I'm studying right now, tapi karena lagi makan aku curi-curi waktu dulu buat buka blog sama twitter hehehe

Today's Object of Obsessions... Sleeping! does that count?
