Working Girl

 

(group photo for my final project)

It's funny what life could possibly turn what you want, what your heart desires and what your mind is thinking. Until a few months ago I thought I wanna be a lecturer in university but it's all has changed. I work in a bank now.. aahahaha *note to self don't ever say no so hard that it bounces back to you and bite your ass. ahahaha

So, the reason for my lack of blogging is the training time (which almost finish now) ehehehe

It  was scary at first I cried a lot.. leaving my comfort zone and doing things that is totally new to me. However, it may be what god planned for me after all. I was so afraid that it was so hard to smile as genuinely as possible at the first time. But now when the training is almost over I am sad like I am going to loose my family. Yes, we have become a family for the past 3 months. It's been a wonderful experience of learing, laughing, and doing almost everything together. I am thankful I have chosen to join ODP Mandiri batch 91

I feels like putting out all of the pictures of em that I love but I left my HDD in my bed room..

I love you guys, I really do

What's a great weekend for ya?

the second floor of anomali coffee, kemang

to die for, dreamed about floral zara drawstring bag of mine :)

Annisa's coffee, I don't feel like drinking them lately

 

What's a great weekend according to you? My weekend would be considered great if I can spend sometime to try new restaurant or old ones that I love, then perhaps taking a snap or two of people around Jakarta, then going to bookstore to find books that will be perfect for my future coffee table :) Few weekends ago I went to Kemang Area to accompany Annisa tried Anomali Coffee.

My initial intention when I first started my blog was to say what I want to say about anything. Though my thoughts always go to fashion. However as time goes by I have done many things with my blog from changing the name, changing the appearance and (once) feels like deleting it. However, when I read other awesome blog like Caroline Robianto's blog I see that she speaks to her reader and I wanna be like that. Though I am not sure whether I have readers or not, I want this blog to be my personal diary, sort of. So, I promised I will start talking in every post from now on :p. The pictures below was taken in Taman Menteng during my hunting session for The Blanc Notes. It was one lazy saturday afternoon, the inspiration for this look is from one of my favorite blog Late Afternoon by liz, She often mixes long skirt and slouchy shirt like mine.

 

skirt: bonjour label, shoes: the little things she needs, shirt: unbranded, cotton scarf: itc ambassador bag: some online shop 3 years ago

Cafe Batavia

Have you ever had an imagination that one day you'll live your old life alone? I have. And I have always imagined it to be inside an old house like in Bandung or Bogor (it sounds like I am planning on being an old woman ghost) but I really do. Then I visited Cafe Batavia a few weeks ago and I felt like I am in that "spot" where I want to haunt people :P

my Junior High School Besties (galih - thina - ajeng)

Ramadhan has been so far so good this year, nothing too extraordinary and nothing is too ordinary. However, ther's one thing I always get excited about. The breakfasting together whether it's with family friends or what not between. There's a sense of I don't know you celebrate something together with people that you care about. It's just so nice especially if haven't seen them in a while. Like my bestfriends from Junior High School. I don't know how long it has been for us. But when We met again we acted like we were 14 again and having a lot of fun together. I'll always look forward to meet ramadhan  every year.

I just couldn't resist to put her picture in my blog :)

check out our street style blog at the blancnotes

The Park

 I believe this girl think I am stalking her since my camera shutter sound is so loud

I work between two jobs in campus, one as an staff in journal makara and the other one is teaching assistant in faculty of economics, so every day I come to this two places. I go from one place to the other by ojek or on foot. When I walk I pass a very pretty small park (Now it's kind of ruined by the street construction for the new library) and the park is pretty and you some sort of serenity. It's also very pretty during the daylight but at night it's kind of scary. These are the picture I took just before the street construction began.

I am not quite sure what kind of blog my blog is now. I mean I rarely post my outfit which I am very sorry about. I post random stuff lately :P heehehhe...I promise I will try real hard to post my outfit since I have lots and lots of clothes (which I am not proud about). I will try to make sure that each of them will get their own spotlight. hehe. so, about two months ago I visited my bf in Balikpapan, it was a nice 3 days trip. We visited a nice restaurant called the beach house, shopped for jewelry and stuff at The Kebun Sayur market and enjoying each other's company. I would love to come back someday :)
