A So-Called End Year Post.

Ugh, I need to post something... Only 3 posts this year?

Well, hello, everyone. So first of all, Happy Christmas to those who celebrate, and it's almost new year!! *fireworks from distance*.

*coughs*

After looking at my blog-archive for this year, It looks like I didn't write any new year resolutions for 2011. Too bad though. I think I'll just write down what I'd accomplished this year.

1. I am gaining weight. FOR REAL. I'll just go aksnfkjskajsd

2. Good grades. Even it's less than my first semester. *scratch head* Oh wait my first GPA was also in 2011.

3. I was selected as a member of some outside campus organization. Still don't know how it works but that's also an achievement, right? Right?

4. Had my first concert and it was Paramore!! And I also got to watch my favorite band, Panic! at The Disco too! *thrills*

In this year I also discovered a lot of good musics that sometimes I'm always wondering why I hadn't known them in first place. I still can remember how shallow my taste of music was, by only listening to what my sister's currently listening at that time. But they say, better late than nothing. So here are my favorite artists/musicians of the year. You can also check out my last.fm's account too, we can be friends there :-)

1. Panic! at The Disco

Never get enough of them. Although their split in mid 2010, Urie and Smith doesn't stop doing music as well as Ross and Walker and I really enjoy Panic!'s newest works, Vices and Virtues (bought their awesome bundle too).

Top three tracks (from their latest album) : Hurricane, Let's Kill Tonight, Nearly Witches (Ever Since We Met..)

2. Radiohead

This band is awesome. No more words.

Top three ~~tracks~~ albums: OK Computer, In Rainbows, Kid A.

3. MGMT
Top three tracks: Weekend Wars, Song For Dan Treacy, It's Working.

4. Local Natives

I think this is the first indie band I'd liked with their songs I've been replaying like crazy. But somehow I don't really like their music videos, being hipster-ish and all, with some random teens just running happily around, lol. Nevertheless I still love their musics!!

Top three tracks: Shape Shifter, Cards and Quarters, World News.

5. Young The Giant
Cheers for good music and Sameer Gadhia's awesome vocal.

Top three tracks: St. Walker, Cough Syrup, My Body.

6. The Walkmen
I discovered them thanks to my friend's super awesome taste of music, Sarah, and now The Walkmen isn't going anywhere but my head.

Top three tracks: Angela Surf City, All My Great Designs, While I Shovel The Snow.

7. Beirut
Credit to Sarah again :-)

Top three tracks: Vagabond, Nantes, East Harlem

After contemplating on what to list next, I decided to keep the spotlight only for seven of them. 2012's resolutions? Well let's say I'll jot it down on my next post, probably.

Till next time :-)

New Perspective

This is my nth attempts to write a new post just so you know. I am stuck, I don't know what to write. But it's not like I'm losing my interest in writing--oh well if I had one. Sometime the sudden urge to type words in this dear blog eagers me to write a new post. But in the middle of my writing I suddenly feel lost-lost in my vocabs and inspirations. *exhale*

Enough blabbering, How are you guys? How's your life so far? eh, me? If you say so, I'll gladly share my stories to you! *flattering myself* *cough* well, I'm fine, fine enough to spend my time slacking around without any inspirations. No recent shots, drawings, just slacking around.

I have moved to Jakarta to (desperately) continue my studies in Trisakti University, since I wasn't accepted in Universities I want, ITB.

"It was a missed opportunity, but there will always be a next time." - Virender Sehwag

Yes, next time. There will always be next time. I'm going to try again to pursue my dream in ITB, since I am so--What? Selfish? Simple minded? I don't know, It's just that I'm really serious when I said that I want to study in ITB. I don't care if people say, "you'll waste your age, your life." It's fine, right? I mean, It's worth it. To spend your time--your age to study, to learn. (IMHO) But I'll only try once more. If I am not accepted again, then I'm sure that God wants me to finish my degrees in Trisakti.

Trivial section!

I lost my phone once. Have I told you that? I lost my phone in one of Bandung public transportation, angkot, if I'm not mistaken, It was only three days after I moved there. I was terribly sad, of course! A lot of contacts stored there and precious memories three years in High School, just vanished. *sobs* When I first lost my cellphone, I dialed it to death with my friend's cellphone. No response, rejected, and inactivated. It's gone. I got the replacement though, 2 months later, a Blackberry. It's really convenient, isn't it? (norak mode: on) LOL

I still don't have any chance for some photo shoots, I'm really craving for it. I only took some useless craps of my self. I need a model, by any chance!

Recently, I suddenly have become an anime freak. Downloading it all like there's no tomorrow. That was the first time I knew La Corda D'oro. And because of that, I really want to learn violin oh my God. You can say that I'm a really easy-influenced person. But it's been a month since i knew that anime and I still have that desire. A new record. I really wish I would be able to buy a violin and get a proper lesson.

My second roll of Octopus is finished. But I still didn't have any chance to bring it to the scan lab, not to mention that I forgot my Flash disk. So, soon it will be!

Our long awaited high school year book's finally done! I'm really glad that our work is now presentable to everyone, after those secret-dirty-complicated situations between us (committee), the studio, and err--one-of-a-kind school official. *slaps in face*

About the post title, well it's just one of Panic at the Disco song title, since I don't have any idea about what should it be anyway. If you (accidentally) found any correlation between them or not, so let them be! *smirk*

What else could it be? So I guess it's the end of my post. Sorry for posting without any pictures, you know that I desperately want to. Sorry for any grammar mistakes :D

Care to share what's on your mind? Just drop some comments below, thanks and Ciao!

Happy Fasting everyone!

Frustrating

Frustrating. That word fits me, my condition. Why? Since I failed on my first ITB entrance exam, I was depressed. I was like, "OMFG, why the hell this shit happened to me?" or "Oh my, why those people are lucky but I'm not?" I hated my self even more. I kept on questioning myself, "am I that stupid?" Well, whatever, I had to continue my life. I packed my suitcase and went to Bandung because I heard that some of Cendana's student who didnt past the first test last year studied in a "Bimbingan Belajar" called Sony Su*gema College, then they passed the second test. Wanting to try my luck again, so I signed in there.

First days in Bandung really gave different atmosphere. Nice breeze, which I like the most (unlike in Pekanbaru). That was the first time I fell head over heels with Bandung. Wow I really love Bandung! The most exciting part is, I have my own place, a small "studio apartment" to live in. I have my own everything! It was weird at the first time. I feel scared but excited, silly but glad.

Continuing the main topic (well I am too excited to tell you guys about my first time being a "Studio apartment people" -whadda strange name -_-), I kept on studying every time. Replaying and improving my basic math lessons, Praying to God, etc etc. I also met new friends! Bandung people sure are friendly and nice.

It's been a month since I moved to Bandung, time really goes fast. I have had my second yet last chance to enter ITB. Yes, the Second Entrance exam of ITB. I've done my best. Now all I need to do is keep on praying. ITB will announce the result on June 10th. It really is frustrating for me waiting for the result. Frustrating. Frustrating. God please give me what I've been wanting for years, STEI ITB. Amin.

It's time for the pictures' time! By the way, I bought a new Toy camera, at last! I really want the Lomos, but my wallet can't afford it. (Next time, Vebry) So, Welcome Yellow Octopus!

and here is my first roll scanlations. What do ya think? ;)

have a nice day, all!

ps:

I dont know the exact phrase of "Bimbingan Belajar". Well, it's a place where we reviewed our lesson at school, but it isnt same as a regular course, by the way. Im sorry!

STEI ITB stands for Sekolah Tinggi Elektro dan Informatica, or known in English as School of Electrical Engineering and Informatics.

Again, sorry for my bad English (in case i made a mistake in grammar or somthin) Pardon me, I'm still a learnie :)

New Hope

Hello Everyone,

it's the January, folks! After a breathtaking Semester exams which I got pretty good marks on my report book (thank God), a lousy holiday, here comes the extra-tight schedules. well, although I had nothing to do in that holiday-still, out of inspirations and creativities- but most of you surely had a good holiday, didn't you?

To end 2009 was really difficult thing to do, for me. Why? Because 2009 was just like my last Senior High school year (I hate using those past tenses about 2009, always reminds me that 2009 is only a memory). Not literally, but it's true, isn't it? This year, all of us will be busy attending universities' entrance tests. No more time for doing some dilly-dally (have I turned into an emo girl? lol).

As days and weeks keep continuing, today is middle of January already. I'm going to submit more than FIVE universities registrations this week. also I come home from school later than usual, 4pm. yeah, I'm getting busier until March, but I'll take another courses. I'm tired.

What are your 2010's resolutions? Well, although it's already late to talk about resolutions, but I'll continue.

First, I really-really-really-really want to gain more weight :( look at this freakin tiny body (nah I won't let you look at it :p) It's really disgusting! Last holiday I spent days by eating junks, but it didn't work. Is it my fate to own this tiny body? Second I'm really hoping one of my universities entrance tests passed, at least before I attend National Examination!! AMIN! Third, of course get out of that school with grades.

I think those are my current wishes. Oh! add another one! In 2010 i want to be more creative, inspired, and diligent! I hope I could write another post asap, updating my DeviantArt, not junking on Twitter ( well I couldn't, but I'm trying to reduce it-or do you mind if I continue junking?).

Could you tell me your 2010 resolutions or hopes? I'll wait :)

p.s. I'm sorry I don't have any proper photos now, sorry to disappoint you -_-
