Good as Gold

pictures by Adhie S.

MAKE THE PRIORITY These pictures been taken around two weeks ago, but I just edited these pictures yesterday and having a chance and time to upload this today. This month is really busy with school's tasks, the preparation for national examinations, meeting for prom night, and the other things. Day after day passed very quickly, I almost realized that I just have only 3 months before national examinations, college entrance exams, prom night, and in the mid-year we have to start the college. Some of my friends still in Jakarta, and the other else will going to other town, near far. When I was in 5th grade elementary school, I thought it would be a long journey until I'm standing here, ready to face the world and how hard that is, thinking about what we're going to do if something happen. Now, I can feel the differences between I was in junior high and almost graduated from senior high. My plan is going to Semarang, learn law there, and do the internship with one of my favorite designer. I hope my plans run smoothly.

In high school I'm not the best student there, teachers and my parents always remind me to make a priority in my life, but sometimes I didn't do any priority, I just do whatever I want to do. Actually that's not good, for those who already great in making a priority, make people around you makes you as a good example. But the nice part is my parents always support me and I really do love my teachers, they're really act like our second parents in school, we can tell about our problems to them and they will be listen you carefully and give you the best solutions. While we're young, do a lots of things, never doubt to spread it to world, never afraid what people will judge you. Anyway, people always have their own critics WHATEVER we do, we speak, we look, we express ourselves. People love, people dislike, it's common :)

Unopened Road

pictures by Fary Hendrayana

SEE THE SURPRISE THAT WE HAVE MADE? Taking pictures in the middle of the road is insane! But that isn't insane if we did it in the unopened road like here! The government of Jakarta is doing their flyover project from years years yearsss ago, this flyover is almost finish but, it doesn't open yet, so we utilize it to be a place for photoshoot. This place is quiet and windy. I will tell you a secret, because I still study in high school, it's quite difficult for me to take a lot of looks constantly, but...since christmas-new year holiday is begin, I will try to looking for activities during holidays, like this... 

Usually I bring some looks in one day, so I don't have to back and forth to make a new post. Changing clothes inside car is also challenging and also sweat haha. But after I opened the door, aaaa it was soo relieve and cool, prevailing winds while wearing maxi dress with the material like this is so perfect with the weather in Jakarta. For the country that has four season could use maxi dress that has a warmer material.

Lazy Tuesday

One week with examinations Today is Tuesday and...after one week full of mid-test, I got one week free and it feels very good, aaah :) yesterday had been really tired day, I had accompany my best-friend (her name is Zidni Fahra-called Zifa) all day long in 4 shopping center in here. Can you imagine? Yeah it was fun and I don't mind to do it again and again. When I went to Plaza Senayan, there was a BIG SALE from metro department! Ah I just want to run and run to get the best things with the best price too! But I have to remind about my savings, it is getting thin and I have to think how to get more money... Then my friend told me to sell my things (like something I can't use it again or even not fits in me anymore.) And I decided to sell my things via online shop. But first I have to unload my closet and it means I have to face with dust, and I know I might be sneezing all the time because I have an allergic with dust :(

Speaking about the allergic with dust, after spending my whole day hanging out with my bf, last night I got sick, having a runny nose, sneezing, and itchy throat. This all must be the cold drinks I drunk yesterday. Influenza is really bad. By the way, tomorrow my mom going to take my report and I scared!! Aaa I don't know how to describe my feeling. Please anyone pray for me please please help.......

White and Light

6 o'clock in the morning I have to get up early to get a great light for these pictures. Without you knowing, I feel very very sleepy (oh my God, bring my mattress so I can lay on it!) but after I see the result, this is worthy! Great! I remember when I bought the outer, it was an event in...2012 maybe.. one of the shopping center in Jakarta, Plaza Indonesia. In that event, many fashion bloggers attend it and sold their own label, such as Diana Rikasari from Hot Chocolate and Mint (product: UP), Sonia Eryka from DIARY OF: THE RIOTOUS BELLE (product: RIOTOUS BY SEM / RIOTS BARBIE), Anastasia Siantar from Brown Plarform, etc. It's all local design and I'm proud of it :D The first time I bought that outer, I was confuse enough, how I wear it. Am I should mix it with jeans..? I mean just jeans.. or I can mix it with skirt? Initially, mix it just with jeans, but as time goes, I learn to make that shirt to be useful, so I wear that shirt to be outer, and voila! Isn't great?

With all of my sleepiness, I failed to keep my eyes open. I spent my whole afternoon to sleep. To be honest, I can not (CAN NOT AT ALL!) fight with drowsiness. If I spent the night to creating something-that absolutely wasting a whole night, I will struggling to keep my eyes open in the class in the morning. It's pretty dangerous if I miss subjects just for sleep. So... is there any solution? :) In Indonesia, school begins at 6.30 in the morning (for public school) but my high school is a private school so it begins at 7 o'clock in the morning. 

L'Arabian Rouge

Arabian Night A few weeks ago, one of my best-friends was celebrate her 18th birthday party and she took "Arabian Night" for the theme, especially the dress code. Her name is Nabilla Nazihandari and she is so kind and friendly, I bet you're going to love her at the first time you greet her. Because the theme is so hard, I spent 4 hours more to looked around the mall to find a perfect outfit to go to her party. Initially, I want to take batik but I couldn't find the perfect batik that match with the theme. But, when I went to Zara, finally I found it! It's perfect and match with the theme, so I bought it. :D But you know sometimes people have to think twice I buy something. This is happen to me, like always. The income is not enough to buy this buy that. This is very consumptive but come on! You know it so well how it feels :"D This is not really good for my savings so after this I am not going to spend...any...money...again.......for 2 weeks.

Before that, I want to tell you all, it's been a busy week, because Monday I will have a Mid Semester Examinations. So that is the reason why I'm not posting for...daySdaySdayS (very long time) ago. It will takes a-full-week and takes a lots of time to learn some subjects like mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology. There are a lots of differences education system in Indonesia with the other countries, and a lots of us (students in here) complain about it -_- haha so wish me luck for the mid semester examinations! :) 

The Black Chain

DIY top by me I have a story behind that shirt, and I'm going to tell you yeay:D The shirt was bought when I was in the middle school and it used for my orchestra performance. Initially, the shirt had sleeves, but I cutted it off a few years later because it wasn't comfort enough. Everytime I try to lift my hand it was hold me. I think there is something wrong with the stitching :( After that my mom bought me a sewing scissors and I try to make that shirt to be useful, and after I cutted it off, I'd like to wear it comfortably. You can do it at your home, but I have a recommendation not to do it in my home or use other people's clothes :D

I have been searching for necklace like that since a few months ago. Once, I found it at H&M but, however, very unfortunate, I didn't buy the necklace because of something (isn't it mysterious enough? Hahaha.) And then, once I was going shopping, and found the necklace similar with H&M, it's so much different but, like...one model, you know? -_- It's local designer by the way :D

This is the journal of my life I love to do blogging, it feels like writing a diary everyday. You can tell anything in here, even the most absurd things in your life:) yes, this is what I am doing right now, exactly right now. Today, I had a history and citizenship examinations and it's quite complicated, but I can finish it well, yay! Doing blogging like this, every night is a relaxing thing before starting to learn some subjects. I have some homeworks to do, like physics and...art! Next year I will be graduated, so I have to work hard lately to reach a satisfying score at the end.

Tomorrow, I would like to post/share about New York Fashion Week (maybe I didn't go in there, but believe me, I do not want to miss the most stunning news-in-this-year.) I'm going to search it by googling and I would shared it to you tomorrow :D Can you ever imagine, cool people like Coco Rocha, Anna Wintour, Karolina Kurkova, Kristina Bazan, Aimee, Sonia Eryka are in the same place!! Admire them soooo much :D

La Pureté Bleu

As blue as sky I love my blue dress. It's bodycon but it doesn't hold me tightly, so it's very comfort. My mom bought it for me a year ago, I forgot where it is (of course I think I often forget some things, and I don't why -_-.) The dress is not expensive and very worthy. I can use that dress to go to the mall or a little party, and about the material, it's appropriate with the tropics, like Indonesia.

When my brother was taking the photos, I saw his watch and I asked him to borrow it for a while, then he gave his watch to me. Thank you bro, for lending me borrow yours ;) yay! After that we went to sushi restaurant. We have to queued the line. I don't want to go to another restaurant because it's my favorite one. Everytime I go to the mall, sushi-tei restaurant would be my first choice to get a food. Sushisushi :D

What a Blazing Day!

Blazing and blessed, it's quite funny right, last night I cried because of..personal things and my PMS(oh common! I don't like it but... You know exactly what it feels, girls? :D) then my bro took me by surprise. He was knocking my door and I...yeah you know what. I opened the door and went to my room and told my mom, her son just came. It's a good news right? I have a photographer on this weekend yay! What a blessings! Thank you God, You save my day :) So in the next day, I took a photos with my bro and mom.

The next day is today! It's 1 am and Jakarta really getting hotter such a blazing day. Watching all about NYFW things make me really really jealous and want to scratch the land until it burns in my hand. Aaaargh, someday I hope and wishhh I could be there. Be happy you guys (I mean, all the cool people who attend that super-amazing event in this year).

Common People Chapter 3

The Interior yeay at least I found a perfect time to complete my promises yesterday. It's very hard you know, found leisure time to post routinely. It feels like I want to finish my high school as soon as possible (huh). I want to be free so the school time can not holding me tight with those schedule. I promised as soon as I finish my high school I am going to post my look more often.

So, about the interior, well, I like the interior. wait... I mean I love it! It's very high class and comfortable, so chic and simple. Everything goes right like they were meant to be together. I spend almost three hours in there (can you imagine how boring the waiters/waitresses seeing me hours and hours) so after I got the shoots and finish our lunch, we left that stunning place. So here we go the photos of the interior!

Common People Chapter 2

As I promised yesterday I am going to post my other photos. I wore my mom's blazer, I like the color and the pattern. Thank you to my mom for letting me borrow hers. But the size is too big to me so I didn't really wore it, and about the skirt, I bought it when I was in middle school. My middle school is located in Tebet, South Jakarta. The location of my middle school is very strategic because it's near with fashion stores, mini cinema, salon and spa, etc.

Actually I don't know what to say anymore-_- yeah because there is nothing too crucial to talked. Tomorrow I'm going to have a biology exam, oh my God I haven't study it yet. So let me finish this post then I'm going to study. About the Common People's interior it's going be posted tomorrow, okay? Wish me luck for tomorrow, yeay!

Ethnic theme for 2013 is the brand new beginning for today shoot. My brother, the one who took photos today is home! He studies in Bandung, (Bandung in one of the biggest city in Indonesia) arrived home yesterday. It's such a great opportunity to met him. Now, he is a freelance runner in my cousin's wedding organize as a photographer. He is very good in photograph and I asked him to shoot me because I need a photographer. It's difficult you know, find a photographer who clicks on you, but now he is on the process to learning about human interest photography and I hope he grows fast.

Today photoshoot take a location in Common People, Kemang with my mom also. Common People Eatery & Bar sells west and east food. The interior is so stunning, I could spend hours in there and the service is so nice. It location in Plaza Bisnis Building, Kemang Raya Street num.2. Because my big bro will leaves  Jakarta soon, I took two looks at once today. The photos of the interior will be post tomorrow and also my another looks.
