Kembali Ke Gambar Nol

Kembali ke Indonesia seperti kembali ke gambar nol. That's how we say it in marching band. Dulu benci-benci tapi cinta juga, karena rasanya udah belajar banyak dari mb. And I keep on coming back.

Internis

Perjalanan gue selama internship di Indonesia banyak dihabiskan di salah satu mal yang ada di Bunderan HI karena memang tokonya ada di situ.
Banyak waktu di HO juga di Sudirman.
Banyak waktu juga di restoran terkemuka di Jakarta seperti makan buntut goreng di Tan Goei seberang sekolahnya Obama dan kantin ke kantin. Ternyata salah satu ambisi mereka adalah makan-makan enak. Hihi.Banyak waktu foto-foto juga. Jadi kesimpulannya banyak waktu ngapa-ngapain hehehe. Terima kasih buat kakak-kakak, bapak-bapak, dan ibu-bu yang baik-baik dan mau mengajari saya! Tunggu kedatangan saya kembali :)

A Very Grateful Note

At this time of the day, if I’m not saying how grateful I am, I rather am a fool. Going back to the place where I grew simply reminds me of the many things I’ve been through. I guess there is a feeling – deep inside of everyone – and a need of acceptance from people around, and I believe that’s the thing that has supported me so far. People around me. Sometimes I’m too oblivious to see how people are very caring, however here I truly see that people aren’t that mean somehow. I don’t know why I enjoyed this coming back so much. I can sort of see where I was, where I am now, and where I want to be. So the benchmarks I’ve left are pretty useful for myself anyhow. I guess I’m just so obliged for the things that I have and seriously couldn’t ask for more.
So many things have happened in 2010. Everyone should have their own aspirations and I guess I have mine. Simply just for the fact that I can go here and there, admiring what life has to offer. Thank you for that. For all the capabilities and the incapabilities. I am thankful for each of them. The chances being given to me. Karamel magazine. Doing internship for one of the most sophisticated Indonesian brands base. Contributing for Whiteboard Journal.
I am very proud of the marching band where I belonged in high school. I think I must have learned a lot from PSUMB so it shaped me this way (the part of being tough and so on - a bit). And they won the national championship again! Ah congrats! The friends that I love so much. I just didn't realize how I missed them so much until I came back and laughed with them all over again. And of course family, who gives me heart to come home to. My mom, dad, and my big brother must be the best thing that I can possibly possess in the world.That's the wrap up of 2010 I guess. I know it's already a bit late but since I waited 17 hours for my flight yesterday, I got time to think of all these wonderful things. I'm counting my blessings and still counting. May this year be a good year.

Everity

When the water pours, I wish time stops. The year is fading away. But eternity is rather greedy.

Nikicio: The White Oleander

As I was taking pictures for Whiteboard Journal (from the quite privileged press spot, yay, and the backstage too), I saw the faces in the front rows admiring the clothes the model worn in sync with the thumping soundscape. The latest collection of Nikicio - The White Oleander - it was. And there were some friends there too. Hebat-hebat orang Indonesia.
