JAKARTA FASHION WEEK 2010/2011



It was on November 7th, when me and Rossa Prila (who likes to be called Ocha) went to JFW 10/11 (Jakarta Fashion Week) where it took place at Fashion Tent, Pasific Place. This is the very first time i've seen a fashion show. Big thanks to Dinda PS who gave me her own VIP ticket, nor i couldn't get the opportunity to see the LEVEL1 collections. I heart you Dinda, i really do :*

So let's just say that i'm too excited and a wee bit tacky, i asked Ocha how should I dress to attend this such occasion. hahahha shame on me. Since Ocha always wanted to get into fashion business, she well aware of it and for her attending JFW was the second time so she got more experience with it. FYI, both Dinda and Ocha are the founder of Pretty Odd, an awesome accessory line which had released the 3rd collection. They just made five items each of every design! Can you imagine how creative they are. As a friend of theirs, im proud :D

Heeey back to JFW, the event was hilarious. We got strategic seats to look clearly at the catwalk. And I might say that i like the ambience, such as: the place, the lightings, the music that fits for each of every designs, the crowd who dress properly well, the people who gave bouquet of flowers for his/her designer friends, etc. I even felt the pride for being at the spotlight. Must be an honored as a fashion designer if your designs got so many compliments and the crowd gave you big applause. Wow, Im already waiting for the next year show!!

Level One itself is a fashion district project located at Grand Indonesia Shopping Town which was like a 'home' for young innovative spirited designers with their own indie labels. There are 29 indie labels who competes in Indonesian Fashion Industries (kabarindo.com). So at JFW, Level One that presented its Falls/Winter 2010 collections were split up into 2 fashion show. We saw the 1st fashion show for almost an hour and feast our eyes by looking the latest collections from i.e: Ichwan Thoha, Saint&Sinner, Deer, Ciel, Kaligula, Eight, Naima, Cocomomo, Jouse of Jealouxy, Mimsy, Venom, Geulis, Huntingfields, and Monday to Sunday.

Overall, it was so inspirational even for me who seemed clueless at fashion hehehe. All of the designs are unique but wearable and stylish. Love every details on it and each of designers have their own concept.

Here are the my fave:

GOODBYE 20 & HELLO 21!!!

tiramisu cheesecake from Cheese Cake Factory :9


Yeaaaay, I just wanna say happy birthday to myself. At November 13th 1989, I was born normal and healthy. And 21 years later, im grateful as i kept along with that. Alhamdulillah. I never meant my birthday is a special day. Nothing really special actually. From my point of view, it was just to remind us what we have done, not done, earn, not earn, and so on. So we could be a better person the next following years. Heem, even though now i grew older, problems will always be a friend of mine. As a human, I gotta solve them wisely enough. Haaaaahhhh, easy to say, difficult to execute. Sounds cliche, but i really hope and wish for it.
The best part from a birthday is you got a lot of attentions by people around you by sending texts, twitter mentions, bbms, walls at facebook, or even a call. So I got so many greetings and birthday wishes from my lovable friends. Thanks anyway, I love every wishes that all of you guys gave to me, I saved some of them indeed :)

Im not gonna tell you what my personal wishes are, let it just me and God who know them. Cheers!!

Btw, there are many awkward things happened right on my birthday. I can't give any details, but I wanna say my special thanks to Ndhoy and Trias. I love you guys :* (not to forget my family)

IDIOT IDIOMATIC

Idiom can defined as an expression whose meaning is not predictable from the usual meanings of its constituent elements; a language, dialect, or style of speaking peculiar to a people; a construction or expression of one language whose parts correspond to elements in another language but whose total structure or meaning is not matched in the same way in the second language; the peculiar character or genius of a language; a distinct style or character.

We already learned about idiom back when we were in elementary school, didn’t we? I found the perfect idiom to express what happened this past five years. This idiom just makes me feel like an extremely horribly awfully idiot. I’m not joking around, this is a serious shit. Feels like you wanna drowning yourself in a big goddamn pool, or choking your neck by your own hands, or cutting your vein in the hand, or laying your body down on a railroad, or else you just sitting with a blank eyes and possessed by a demon. I’ll be a true idiot if I did all kind of activities above. It is clear enough I’m not insane yet. I still can make a difference between the good and the bad. I’m in so much grateful with that. Thank God, I praise you.

Back to idiom, you guys must have heard this, rite? Where there is a will, there is way”. It means if one really wants to do something, one can. For example:



“Where there is a will, there is way......”

Ways to know you
Ways to be friends with you
Ways to know more about you
Ways to make me liking you
Ways to make me liking you a lot lot more
Ways to make me happy with you
Ways to make me in love with you
Ways to make me enjoying life with you
Ways to share life with you
Ways to get along well after we had a little fight
Ways to make me deeply in love with you
Ways to get along well after we had a big fight
Ways to realize how colorful our love life is
Ways to make us through the ups and downs
Ways to make me madly deeply in love with you
Then
Ways to cheat on me with my own close friend
Ways to make this ex-close friend had a crush on you
Ways to make me feel betrayed so damn hard by both of you


Well, the last three are waaaaaaaaaaaaay too much, isn’t it? What do you think reader? Am I an idiot? I think I’m not reach the idiot level yet, hmm maybe a fool I guess LOL. The idiot is supposed to be the one who already knows he/she is on the wrong way road, but still keep walking on it. He/she still got the change turning back to the right way even there have to be some consequences, like coming late, got tired during the walk, etc. He/she just follows the wind blows, mad people who definitely giving the wrong direction, blame it to all x factor, and the last thing he/she can do is leaving it to the God’s hand even though he/she got at least a tiny brain to think but not using it.

Then he/she just keep walking on that wrong road again because it’s too tempting, too curious about everything and anything in it. although during the walk he/she meets friends, families, beggar, a dead cat, a dead man, dead soul people, zombies, ghosts, monsters, an angel, any kind of creature, he/she doesn’t give a shit, doesn’t care, doesn’t think, doesn’t feel anything except the lustfully temptation to walk that wrong way. Since i don't have the right to forbid him/her, so I think it is a time to say good bye then. I intend to the right way road with friends, families, and God by my side. Well good luck for the idiot, it must be a heavy damage slippery road. Be careful with it.


Am i look like an idiot? Think not. I'm just being a fool. silly me :D

A POSTCARD FROM SOUTH KOREA

the day Yuni went away to Daejeon, South Korea

Please let me introduce one of my dear friend, Yuni Winingsih, who temporarily live in South Korea. Yuni is a bright cheery girl who has a wide gorgeous smile. What i really like about her is the way she can make people around laugh and smile with her natural honesty that she has. She’s good at hiding her own feeling and kept it, you can imagine how strong she is, can’t you? The best part is even she’s not joining some kind of any circus, she never failed entertaining me (sorry yun, I'm just fooling around :p). I hope she felt the good way about me, im so sorry if i ever let you down yuuun.

Heemm the thing is, she got a scholarship to learn Korean language and she’s gonna hang on there until February 2011. Ooh how i miss her badly.... Hehe tell you the truth I'm a lil bit envy for her luck, disappearing from Jakarta for 6 months would be a great heavenly journey for a heartbreak kiddo like me LOL. But of course im really happy for her. The day she took off, i asked her to write and send me a postcard from South Korea hehe. And she kept her promise! Yippiee, i got the lovely postcard at October 5th. Since i don't have a scanner machine, i just had a time to scan it on campus back then hehee. Btw, my mom and sisters told me that this sending-postcard-thingy was a traditional way as if we can easily share stories with any kind of social networking on the internet. But personally, i like this idea instead. What do you think? Am i too old fashioned? Hehee.


Heey, the pic is a view in Thailand, im asking for an awesome landscape from Koreaaa~ hihi


I supposed not to show it to you, but I want to :D



p.s: i didn’t find my cool pic postcard, so i couldn’t send you back yet yun. Be patience please :)
