Sunday AM

(this was written on Sunday and I didn't get to post it until now)

Now it’s been almost a week without my cellphone and I feel dull

But the bright side is, I can *ahem* study without any distractions and whatnot, and I can focus on more important things.

This AM my bestfriend, Erina went to my place, because we had to sell T-shirts slash tickets for my school’s funbike (yep my school’s holding funbike on Nov 25th). After we got tired from smiling and being nice and friendly EVEN to those who didnt really appreciate us nor even took a glance of what we were offering (I feel you, salesmen), we went to a cafe called Lotus Mio.

Lotus Mio is located near my house (yay!) and it’s not so big but artsy and filled with cute wooden furnitures. The menus are italian like pasta, lasagna (homemade), also their specialty is gelato. So if you want to go to a gelato place that arent filled with kimcil2 you can come here! They had cookies and cream, green tea and mint, strawberry, chocolate (less flavor than the ones you can find on Artemy). The other (+) of this place is, not so many people visit it, because its far from schools area or downtown, so it has its own exclusivity, and it’s quiet, it would be a nice place to study or hangout and just talk with a good friend.

Erina ordered Pannacotta for Rp 14.500, it’s like creamy pudding filled with strawberries. And by creamy I mean really mushy and creamy and so yummmmm!  Parfait! Its SO good & recommended. I was gonna go for Chocolate Lava but they ran out of it (I can tell, maybe it’s their bestest specialty) so I ordered gelato instead. It was cookies and cream, and it was VERY very recommended because of its stickiness and taste. Thats all that we ordered because we didnt have much time we had to go back home and to sell some more but we were all in all, satisifed!

Looking forward to try Apple Pie, Quiche and Fettucine. Sorry for the bad photo qualities, all photos were taken with iPod so yeah that's why. 

Ciao! a

Prevaricator much?

Hi. I hadn't been blogging for so long I'm starting to miss it. Anyway, it's Sunday and it wasn't really a funday but today was better than the weekdays, so I'm still grateful for it. I've just finished taking some SAT Vocab Quiz (the reading section) and the practice test (because I'm gonna have English test tomorrow so I figured it might be good to do the SATs) and I got 730 for the practice test :>
Last Saturday, I went to my brother's game it was a basketball game and he was the captain, in my opinion he wasn't golden :( due to his asthma and he got a bit tired in the 3rd and 4th quarter. But anyway his school team won (I used to go there to) so good luck for tomorrow's game!
Last night I happened to be at this big concert with Michael Paulo and David Benoit in it and it was awesome and mindblowing (I especially love Jamey Tate because he was super cute and his drumming wasn't too rigid and he didn't look like he was trying too hard-he looked relaxed-something to look up to). I bought Jamey's CD too and it's such and ear candy, my favorite is Six Freeways, it's like a soundtrack to a candlelight dinner-it's romantic and soulful.
A few weeks ago I was experimenting with juice and this came up: Beetroot and Carrot. Made it and tasted it, it actually tasted OK, not bad. But then afterwards I felt queasy and I wanted to throw up badly (good thing I didn't throw up at school that day, or anywhere). I was supposed to add it with Ginkgo Biloba and rosemary but I didn't so maybe that's why. So the recipe is: beetroot, carrot, ginkgo biloba (just one drop) and rosemary. I googled and it is said to stimulate your brain and it's best consumed in the morning before going to school so you would be focused and all that shit while you're at school. So if anybody would like to make any, let me know because I can email you with the full recipes and I would like to know how it would turn out with the full ingredients. Fingers crossed you will be okay and you'll get a straight A at school!
At last, happy weekends (well the week is about to start again-sighs) and please click here. (You're welcome). There's a pumpkin spice latte somewhere on pg 13 :) not sure if it came out in Indonesia though :(

Been feeling like this lately because of the exam week:

Some people

are like, one moment, they're really chilled, they give you birthday presents, they hang out with you, text you and stuff, do some stuff that makes you feel special, share secrets, tell stories, take picture together.

And then like 3 months later they don't do that anymore. You're pissed off (obviously), you feel awkward and weird. It's not only because of them not doing stuff anymore, it's also you don't put any effort on it. You stopped trying. You stopped talking and all you do is just wishing that everything's running well in their lives.

Hey guys, so I finally came up with entirely different header. I personally like it, 'cuz I think it brought such a cool-mint-y atmosphere (?). Anyways, I changed the blog title too that's why.
Today I'm gonna be doing Thankful Thursday, so here it goes:
1) My girl-friends
So good to finally be able to interact with them again and have no boundaries *cough*. And it feels right to make jokes and laugh without keeping eyes on people around us.
2) Ladies' Club
I just got back from LC this afternoon and it made me realize of how relieving it is to talk and just exchange stories. No dramas, just us gossiping while sippung lemon squash and eating some cakes and macarons. God, I miss them!
3) My Mom
Thankful for her because she had been so patient dealing with me and she'd been driving for me since the first day of school, she's such a strong powerful woman
4) Caffeine
It keeps me awake and sane in the mornings and while I'm cramming for exams. Boy we better be workin out again next week 'cuz next week's gonna be EXAM WEEK! Darrrn time flies so fast when you're..not studying.

I've been meaning to change my bloggie and I hope this might work, because I've missed writing and I have so much more to say and to share. If there's any reader please let me know because I, in this point, am not really sure if there's anyone who actually reads this full of venting and ranting blog of a 16 year-old. I would like to continue writing, and just rambling, about what I like, what I dislike, and so on.
What about you? What are you thankful for this week?

Happy Blairday

So it was my best friend's birthday last week but she was heading to KL for a competition :-( too bad, but I gave her a surprise (or it wasn't a surprise anymore since I had a feeling that she knew that I was coming). But weell I went to her place in the morning and gave a bday cake.
Anyway, the birthday wishes were already sent to her, and I hope she liked it :)
Wishing you a constant happiness and many many years of friendship, also thanks for coming to my life B!

(PS since this blog is now all about birthdays lol, i'm gonna write morrre! Haha. Because sometimes 140 characters isnt enough and I have so many things to say!)

Gotta be the good life

So my birthday was on the 24th, I was away so I had fun after the birth day. I'm cool with it, totes. Had been feeling really good and blessed with such kind friends :) I also feel inspired and jolted from anything that buried me-and my creative mind. I feel like I could find my way back into enjoying more of life what has to offer, which is the non-surprisingly, drums. I feel passionate about it and i really can't wait to try some new patterns, rudiments. I just feel like I finally found my way back.
As for my birthday, I had a really good time, really kind motivate & supportive wishes from my friends and bestfriends, and my fam of course. I'm really looking forward for the many years of friendship & sistership.
Thank you for the video, I watch it everyday and it never failed to put a smile on my face, I don't like it, I LOVE it! Everything keeps getting better , I'm so thankful right now, I feel blessed.
Alhamdulillah :)
