Too Late

I know it's too late. But I really want to say "MERRY CHRISTMAS" to all of you guys ;)
Sorry for this total mess. I was too busy with lots of new things. I even.. Forgot that this blog belongs to me.

Well, I just wish you had already had your precious moments this Christmas ;)

Let me tell you a bit about mine.
I went to Puncak with my family, aunts, uncles, grandma, and my cousins. My dad just got a villa to stay in when the capital city seems to be too busy in some particular periods. Yeah so we decided to go there on the 24th, then we were back on the 26th.

It was kinda weird that we played with some fireworks instead of something-more-christmas-y. Yeah it felt like new year. And that's my brother, by the way.

that's me (orange ts) with my brothers, and my cousins.

Well that's all about my Christmas.
I thought it'd be a gloomy Christmas before. But man, it's Christmas! There's no such thing as gloomy Christmas. I thank God for everything. I thank God for letting Jesus came to me through the people around me.

Sweetzerland

Well, I've told you. My favorite is Switzerland.
So I went to Zurich, Luzern, and Geneva.

Here ;)

A Little Pal

For one or two weeks ahead,

I'll take care of this little pal.
Apparently my brother got it for his birthday gift.
But it seems like he won't have enough time to look after this new pal.

I don't feel like having a pet, it keeps us busy AT HOME. Feeding the dog, cleaning its place, and etc. Sometimes it's irritating. Apalagi dia masih 2 bulan, too tiny. But honestly I love dogs very much. I used to visit my neighbor once or twice a week to see her dog, Pedro (Golden Retriever). And now, he's dead :'(, too old.

We're planning to give it to somebody after one or two weeks. To my cousin, or to my uncle.
By the way, her name is Sigi. Hahaha I'm sorry Tannia but she's my brother's, not mine. Wehehehee :)

Location: Benoa, Bali

Sunburnt

Here are some pictures in Bali. What surprised me was that I met Tannia in the church haha. There were times when I was homesick. Or when I really missed my friends. Haaaaaa I can't say too much. Let the pictures explain about everything. The days, the weather, the places, the people, the feelings, and etc.

But anyway, my skin was burnt. Hahahaha. It was too hot in Bali, except in Bedugul. Yea but I like the hot weather because I want my skin to be tanned. Hahahahaha.

Tanah Lot, lucu ya orang-orang kayak lagi mau ngungsi :p


having fun after sunset in the kuta beach, that's my bro. he's crazyyyy!

Pura Uluwatu, katanya sih ujungnya Bali


Viona dan Naka, di rumah saudara gue :)

In fact we also visited some great places such as GWK, Klapa, etc. Too many pics. Hahaha.

BYE
LET ME FLY
HIGH

I Even Forgot To Say..

Merry Christmas!
And,

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Say hello to 2010. I don't speak too much about it. I just think, promise myself to do some good things. 2009 was awesome. I just don't know how to explain about it. A lot of unusual things happened in 2009. Haha.

And the photo above was my new year's eve in Bali with my big family :)

I'm finally home :D ily Jakarta.

The Rest of The Year

Hey folks! It's almost Christmas. It means 2010 is getting closer too. After exams, we had classmeeting. Then, we had a training program for communication on Wednesday, Thursday, and today (Saturday). I found it really interesting and useful for us.

Let me tell you a bit about it.
So we moved to another class which was wider than our class. So, during the couching, most of us sat on the floor. We had some cool games and watched some movies. We watched I Not Stupid Too on Wednesday (it was sorta dumb but meaningful, a Singaporean movie). Then we also saw Freaky Friday on Thursday. Both of the movie taught us about how important the communication is needed, especially in the family, or between children and their parents.

Yea I forgot to tell you about the facilitators. They were Kak Wonni and Kak Ricci. They presented some materials about communication, such as styles of communication, empathy, and many more. My favorite part was the last lesson. It was about trusting each other. We had a game called Trust Fall. It's difficult to explain how it worked. But I'm sure most of you know about this game. It's like letting yourself fall back, and some of your friends are at your back, ready to save you so you won't get hurt.

During recess, we were just lying on the floor. Then we made this (X-1)! Hahaha.

Tiffany, Rizca, Feby, Alice, Tannia, and Tassha


Feby (you looked pretty here! haha), Kak Wonni, Kak Ricci, Alice

Today, our parents (either mom or dad) came to school and gathered with us in our class. We had some chats and discussion, and also games with them. Kak Wonni and Kak Ricci also gave chance for us who wanted to say something, especially about communication between parents and their kids. We (the students) also did some presentations about what we have learned these 3 days.

And the cute thing was, we (the students) had to bring some presents (I think it's a kinda appreciation) for our parents. Then our parents wrote us letters there.

Tannia and her dad, and her present for her dad (so cute)

Above is my present for my mom. A photo, yes. Hahaha. Does it look abstract? If you don't understand, actually it's about parents' love which is very strong. So I made two LOVEs. Then I spilled out the water. The first one is my parents' love, it's not fading out. But the other love, it's gone. What sorta love is it?
Yea it's quite difficult to understand but it's all that I could make for my mom.

I bet we'd get lots of advantages from this activity. It's a good thing to fill spare time in the rest of this year. Okay then, bye folks!

Younger Years

Hey folks, it's my third post for today. Hahaha I'm sorry for writing too often. Yea, so like I've said before, I was planning to go to a concert. It's called Tribute To Legends, held in Gedung Kesenian Jakarta. There were performances from some singers who usually sing at cafes, restaurants and all that stuff. So they brought oldies songs which used to be so famous in the 50's-70's (if I'm not mistaken).

Some of them are my dad's friends. He first met them in some cafes and restaurants. And you know what, they're not just like some regular singers. I saw 2 of them performing at a cafe, and they were awesome.

And here are some photos. But I didn't upload all of them (all of the singers), too many! And I apologize for my bad pics. Taking stage-photos is not easy.

It was my first time to visit GKJ, hahaha

The Legend Big Band

George Laisina, sound of Frank Sinatra

Sis, sound of Matt Monroe

Imelda, sound of Doris Day
I saw her performing once before

Noenoe Poernomo, sound of Tom Jones

Baginda, sound of Engelbert Humperdink (look at his palm!)

Dancers from UI

The Four Brothers (or what, I forgot)


Santo, sound of Nat King Cole (this is not his Nat-King-Cole-like performance)

Then finally, Johnny Kiliaan, sound of Elvis Presley.
I saw him performing once before. Though he doesn't really look like Elvis, but when his voice comes out, you will feel like watching the real Elvis in the 50's-70's.

The ambassador of America was there too. He said that the shows made him homesick.

my mom and my dad, and some singers my dad have known


Johnny Kiliaan and his daughter, with my dad and me

You know what, I felt like 25 years older that day. Because I guess I was the only 15-year-old girl there. Most of the people who came were about 30 years and above (I don't know if there were some young people also). Haha whatever. I think this concert was amazing. I realized that we have to appreciate some talented singers who are not famous. And I know that those oldies are so meaningful to the people, it reminded them about their younger years, about their childhood, their families, their first love, and all that stuff.

Yea it was interesting! Luckily I was allowed to take pics though they informed (before the show) that taking pics was prohibited.

Okay folks, tomorrow is a holiday. But on the next day (Saturday), exams will be started. Haaaa wish me luck! Bye!

Warm

I went for New Moon today with Tassha, Tannia, and Marcia. Hmm, it wasn't disappointing at all, much more interesting than Twilight. But I couldn't trust my eyes that Robert Pattinson (as Edward Cullen) was not good at all. His pale skin, his body, and all about him. It was just weird.

And Taylor Lautner (as Jacob Black),

source

He has got the looks, the perfect body, the perfect tanned skin, and oh my.. I adore him. I've been admiring him since I watched Twilight. And he reminded me of Oliver James. They both look alike. Hahaha.

I wish I had someone like him, in reality. I want to feel the warmth. Hahaha never mind.

After hanging out in Ex with some friends, I had my dinner in The Ubud with my family and my grandma. It was fun. The food was fascinating. Today was great! Hahaha. Anyway, I am having my german test tomorrow. Wish me luck, folks!
