that was the first time ever for me drinking red wine while taking a shower with sweet jazz blasting on my iPhone to the point that the audio cracks (but heck, it's an old recording anyway). wowweee, wine and music goes too well together


Day 3

Humans are blind.

One day a long time ago she asked me to draw a picture of her. I made a manga-style sketch and used fineliner to finish it up. On a piece of paper torn from my sketchbook.

I didn't think much of it... I didn't know she was so happy that she laminated my drawing for her.

Now that she is gone I feel so sorry, I should have put more effort into that drawing she cherished enough to laminate. I decided to make another drawing of her, this time with all I've got, with all the skill I can muster up. I don't know how it will turn up. I'm sorry I cannot hand it to her properly this time. My brother showed her mother a screenshot of the painting in progress and she burst into tears and said she will print it and frame it.

We are all so blind... How can something so simple mean so much to someone. That's why we must all do our best for others so we won't have any regrets.

Rest in peace truly... we all love you so much...

Sitting alone in a potentially dangerous place. Cool auttumn breeze. 11 in the night. Music in my ears. Only this town gives me this freedom



Juen's Birthday


Tonight I'll be celebrating Juen's birthday!!!
I made this bag to put her present into:


She reminds me of a rabbit ! cute one !


And this is from my self-promo project, my identity mascot, The Minimalistic Cat.
The rabbit is something Juen drew as an extension from my Minimalistic Cat during my birthday!


And I made this pink birthday card for her :D



Everything is in (broken) Japanese... and I suck at kanji so I wrote most everything in Hiragana!!! Kudos to me...lol. Took quite long to write and lots of mistakes. That's why the images I uploaded are so tiny so you won't be able to read the words cos I'm sure there are many embarrassing errors. Kekekke

Will go out to meet her and the other girls in a few hours! Will have fun tonight~

Have a
Happy
Happy
Happy
Birthday
my dear Juen~~~~

(I hope you like my present and card)

A Short Note

Thursday, October 6, 2011


Today I read someone's blog. Someone who leads a completely different life from mine. The only thing that connects us is the internet. We are strangers.

After reading this person's blog, I feel a little ashamed of myself. I'm so amazed at how different two people's perspectives are on a certain thing, how this 'thing' control everything in one's life and how it means nothing in another's. I read on. There is a kind of pure happiness from another person's joy. The laugh of a little child. A satisfaction.

The things I read really touched me. I wish all blessings and happiness to this person and may he lead a life he is proud of. -trj22


bachelor me


Today I did something I actually never considered before in my life!




Tadahh I got a double piercing. I only decided to do it a day ago and today I got it pierced. Hahahha spontaneity runs in my blood.

At the moment it's a simple stud (the gold one) but I plan to buy lots of cute earrings next month in Japan. Yes!!! I'm going to Japan in less than one month! I can't believe it... FYI, the vacation will be a month long. I probably won't have time to blog for the entire month. Or maybe I will post photos up as I travel, but without accompanying texts.

Oh and, on my birthday I made my very first acrylic nail art. Today (after getting my ears pierced) I did my nails again and this time it's a simpler design than before and I didn't use acrylic... I just can't figure out that thing!! Too difficult!!




I am only a few days from completing my Bachelor's degree
:D ~



September is over

Saturday, October 1, 2011


Hi readers, the weather in Melbourne has been so depressing lately.
I like rain when I am indoors or when I am in Jakarta (for some reason) but not in Melbourne.
Walking home in the wind and rain is just no fun...






And recently I started listening to this absolutely beautiful song... September In the Rain
Of course I like Sarah Vaughan's version... she is my favourite Jazz musician!
Please do listen to it... it's so sweet and clear, perfect!




Oh and... I've had pain on my left arm for several days. This morning I woke up and it still wasn't better at all! Even though I have slept 3x. One would think 'injuries get better after some sleep'. So I started to get worried and since I had afternoon class today (even though in the end I didn't manage to make it to class......) I decided to go to the hospital for a check-up.

First I went to a clinic for a General Practitioner. He then told me I might have a tendon rapture on my left arm (my father has that on his left wrist!!!) and he advised I go to a radiologist for Ultrasound scan as soon as possible. I went to this place called Imaging that's situated within a sports stadium... Apparently AFL players go there to fix up sports injuries. So most were male in that area. Felt weird to be a non-sporty girl there.

So then I got my ultrasound results for my left arm...




The doctor told me that my tendon is alright and no bones are fractured. But he said the Bursa on the joint of my left arm is inflamed.... And he showed me the 'normal' state of a Bursa on my right arm... and the size of the inflamed Bursa is like... 7x the size of a normal one!!! It was quite scary. I'm glad I went to get a check-up today or I would have let this thing reside inside me until next week... 

I was told to get some kind of injection and then follow-up with physiotherapy. But it all sounded so pricey! So I told the doctor I would consider it for a while. Then I went to eat vietnamese with Listy (yes, she accompanied me the entire day... from 9am to 5.30pm) for lunch. When my Dad called me and I told him the situation. He said I should just take the injection today. And since I was still in the area, I went back to the stadium.... Let me just say public transportation in Melbourne is not quite simple and we happened to have the worst of luck today with it. So from 9-5.30, we walked 70% of the way.

Can't complain though, because I notice that my facial skin is all bright and vibrant thanks to the exercise. 

Oh, the exact name of my injury is Shoulder Bursitis.

So yes... I pretty much don't use my left arm for anything right now... I try my best not to move it and not to carry anything although that's not possible. I always have heavy things to lug along. Often I wish there is someone to help me carry my things. A butler? I'm not that rich to hire one. Hahahhahaa. You can't survive on your own if you're not strong! T.T

Wish me fast recovery....!



A very very good Japanese movie I recently watched thanks to Juen... If you are a J-fan, WATCH THIS!!!!

I turn 19


I thought I should post pictures of my 19th birthday! ^^
Since it's my final year in Melbourne I decided to throw a BBBQP (Birthday Barbecue Party).
(not in any order)




My hair and make-up. 
Blue Rose inspired by Paradise Kiss live action movie!!!! 
I love that movie so muchhhhh!






My darling Juen, thank you for coming early to help out!



My sweet Listy, you're so kind!
She helped me since morning to buy the meat and drinks and also helped me prepare the BBQ!











We had our BBQ on the rooftop of a building, so we got a beautiful view of the night cityscape! It was soooo romantic. The food was also good considering it's my first BBQ *proud* (I didn't do much of the cooking though...LOL. Hats off to the chefs ;p I just pre-marinated the meat).

After eating we played some games and then we had a really delicious cake! It was a really good relaxed night. Thank you my girls for celebrating the day I was born with me! :-)

The following day, which was 25th September my actual birthdate (the BBQ party went on until 1:00AM 25th Sep from 8:00PM 24th Sep), Listy baked a cake for me early in the morning!!!! We don't have an electronic whisker so she whisked everything manually!!!! I was so touched, what a sweet girl. When she gets married her husband and children must be so happy. Hmm... Actually the photos on 25th Sep are not transferred yet, they are still on my digital cam. Lol. But the cake was bright pink with little balls over the icing with very sweet strawberry slices!!! Thank you very much Listy! Listy, my bro and I went to Korean restaurant that night to have dinner. Supposed to go to Ice Bar but was too lazy. I just did my homework and laundry that day =_=;; pretty lame but... I'm just tired n already satisfied from the BBBQP so I couldn't be bothered anymore. Just wanted to relax! Hehe
