Art of Diana Rikasari

Maybe some of you didn't know who is Diana Rikasari (OMG, you kidding me.. you still didn't know her until you read this post..) okay, let me introduce her to all of you. Diana is an Indonesian fashion blogger. I adore her like i adore Carrie Bradshaw in Sex in The City movie and Becky Bloomwood in Confession of a Shopaholic movie (actually, iam not fashionable at all, but i just like the way they match the ordinary things to be an extraordinary :)). Now, iam not telling you about her fashion blog, but iam gonna tell you about her cute art project in deviantart.com

I think the art that she make is really cute, full of color, have a deep meaning, full of emotion, and so inspiring. You might see another art of her in this.

Don't you think she is really cute?! at the first time i saw her blog i thought she just a kid.. hahaha LOL, finally i found that she is older than me. My conclusion right now is because she has a cute look so she can make a cute art too (hahah, stupid conclusion). Here is another art from her, take a look guys ..

hope i can inspire people too

Fortitude

i read a great poem about fortitute.. and i just want to sharing with you guys, here's the poem, hope you enjoy it too :) :


Laugh, and the world laugh with you;
Weep and you weep alone.
For the sad old eart must borrow its mirth,
But has trouble enough of its own.
Sing and the hills will answer;
Sight it is lost on the air.
The Echoes bound to a joyful sound,
But shrink from voicing care.
Rejoice and men will seek you;
Grieve and they turn go.
They want full measure of all your pleasure,
But they do not need your woe.
Be glad and your friends are many;
Be sad and you lose them all.
There are none to decline your nectar wine,
But alone you must drink life's gall


Feast and your halls are crowded;
fast and the world go by.
Succeed and give and it helps you live,
But no man can help you die.
There is room in the halls of pleasure
For a long and lordly train,
But one by one we must all file onThrough the narrow aisles of pain.

Harusnya sih begini~

aku rasa kalau melakukan hal-hal dibawah ini kita akan menjadi pribadi yang lebih baik, yang tidak akan menyesal dengan apa yang kita lakukan.


takut akan tuhan
berpikir sebelum bertindak
berpikir sebelum berbicara
mendengar sebelum menilai
menutup telinga dari gosip
menahan lidah untuk melakukan fitnah
mengampuni orang yang bertikai dengan kita
membantu orang yang sedang kesusahan
bersimpati dengan yang menderita
berempati dengan yang menderita
menjadi jujur, dan hanya jujur tanpa pembenaran kebohongan lainnya
bersikap jujur dalam bisnis
memegang teguh idealisme
menjadi pribadi yang baik dan sopan bagi siapapun


wuihh, rasanya sih berat.. tapi ku rasa inilah yang diperlukan oleh setiap kita.. mari benahi negeri kita tercinta, Indonesia

Do You Love Yourself?

I love and believe in myself

I am grateful for what I have

I accept myself totally and unconditionally

I am 100% responsible for my life

I focus on what I appreciate in others

I can!

I am loving and caring

I see beauty in everything

I am the only person in charge of my happiness and bliss

I am patient

The more I give love, the more I receive love

 

I live in a universe of abundance

I am detached from the outcome

I persist in the directions of my dreams

I compare my progress only to myself

I take things one day at a time

I can change my life by changing my thoughts

I live my life the way I want to

I forgive and move on

I become what I think about, so I only think of good thoughts

I only have thoughts that empower me

I am decisive

My mind is focused on what I desire

Today I choose to be the best I can be at everything I do

reflection time

Smile Everyday~

I know it's not 15 june, so maybe it's not the right time to celebrate Power of a Smile Day... But i love to smile, so here we go, I'm gonna tell you what i think about smile.

Smile are powerful! yeah i know that is true, and i know that you know it too..

when I see smiles in people faces, I feel lighter and more joyful. Yes, smiling spreads cheer and can make others feel love and accepted. Here some smile things in food.. love them . :))

Iam a smiler. Iam smile too much, but sometimes i can lose my smile too because bad things happen in my daily life. But when it happen i always think about the greatest compliment i ever received was regarding my smile. A lovely friend once said, "you are always smiling. You have a beatiful smile. I love to see you. It always makes my day". Oh My God, remember this things always can burn my smile..

it's me and my smile :))

Smiles bring hope. In this economic times, we may have little to give, but we can always smile!! :)) I hope you always find a reason to smile.

Big Smile for all of you

Helai Cinta lainnya

Mungkin seharusnya aku tidak mencinta.. karena mungkin cinta itu salah.. tapi jika seorang bodoh tidak belajar, mungkin kita tidak akan tahu cinta itu salah atau tidak.. Ada banyak senyum yang mengembang di wajah para pecinta, mereka mengerti apa yang diinginkan cinta, tapi aku merasa tersudut, tak berdaya, tak mengerti..

Cinta itu menyenangkan dan sangat fluktuatif tergantung bagaimana kita menempatkannya.. tergantung wadah hati tempat menampungnya.. kalau aku tak mengerti maka aku akan belajar dan mungkin nantinya akan mengajari, tapi dibalik kata belajar dan mengajari terkesan makna yang lebih dalam.. sesuau tentang hukuman dikala aku tidak bisa menyerap apa yang dipelajari.. apa ini juga berlaku dalam dunia percintaan?

Mengulas helaian cinta

Yuniar C. Th.

Helai Cinta

Aku membawa beberapa helai cinta, dan walau aku tak bisa mengerti setiap helaiannya. Aku akan berlatih keras dan mungkin aku akan menjadi lebih pandai dari sebelumnya tanpa perlu melakukan transplantasi hati dari seorang pecinta di simpang dunia. Ya, akupun punya senyuman, kurasa itu adalah senyuman tulus untuk orang-orang disekitarku serta koin keberuntungan bahkan sedikit sisa bubuk keberanian dan mungkin hal itu dapat membantuku mengerti lebih tentang arti cinta..

sedang belajar mencintai

Truth About Friends

tisha, me (theo),  qmint, nurul, icha, dika, tara, and dinda

My Friend

When you are sad, 

I will get you drunk and help you plot revenge against the evil bastard who made you sad.

When you are blue, 

I’ll try to dislodge whatever is choking you.
When you smile, 

I’ll know you finally got laid.
When you are scared, 

I will take the piss about it every chance I get.
When you are worried, 

I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be and to quit whining.
When you are confused, 

I will use little words to explain it to your dumb ass.
When you are sick, 

Stay the hell away from me until you’re well again. I don’t want whatever you have.
When you fall, 

I will point and laugh at you. 
This is my oath, …I pledge till the end.
Why you may ask? Because you’re my friend !

Friendship quote

When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand.  The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.  ~Henri Nouwen

A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere.  Before him I may think aloud.  I am arrived at last in the presence of a man so real and equal, that I may drop even those undermost garments of dissimulation, courtesy, and second thought, which men never put off, and may deal with him with the simplicity and wholeness with which one chemical atom meets another.  ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Yes we are [friends] and I do like to pass the day with you in serious and inconsequential chatter.  I wouldn't mind washing up beside you, dusting beside you, reading the back half of the paper while you read the front.  We are friends and I would miss you, do miss you and think of you very often.  I don't want to lose this happy space where I have found someone who is smart and easy and doesn't bother to check her diary when we arrange to meet.  ~Jeanette Winterson, Written on the Body, 1992

miss my sarcastic friend :)

Batal ke Zoo Park

Aelah gak usah di keren-kerenin kali ya judulnya tinggal bilang aja kebon binatang alias bonbin alias kampung halaman, dsb.... Yayaya, hari ini tuh tadinya udah janjian menemani si kajool ke bonbin, mumpung dia lagi di bandung.. yah itung-itung sih melepas penat di tengah kesibukan ibukota.. ceileee, bujubuset emang sibuk apan sih aku... tapi apa daya karena ada kegiatan lain yang gak bisa ditunda alhasil kita bertiga gak jadi ke bonbin deh (tiga personil ini antara lain adalah : aku, kajool dan zara)... akhirnya malah berujung di kosan putih ya sebut saja itu "white house" base camp yang udah disinggahi dari jaman awal kuliah... berhubung di kosan ini kagak ada orang ya terpaksa deh kami berdua (aku dan kajool) bermain-main ria berdua di dua dunia yang berbeda.. (heh, terpaksa?!? kayaknya dengan sukarela deh mainnya).

Kok dua dunia...?! yah, begitulah dunia kami berdua selalu bertolak belakang... Aku hidup di dunia penuh gula, permen kapas, sirup, coklat dan hal-hal imut serta menggemaskan lainnya (kok kayak iklan gulaku ya.. hahaha #abaikan) sedangkan kajool tinggal di dunia nyata layaknya manusia sehari-hari hidup dan beraktivitas.. Untuk menghubungkan dua dunia ini akhirnya kami membuat portal penghubung yang bisa mempererat tali silahturahmi.. (kok makin lama makin gak nyambung ya bahasannya.. hahaha jadi kayak cerita invasi alien deh) dan portal itu kemudian disederhanakan bentuknya menjadi kamera... ya begitulah ceritanya akhirnya kami berpoto-potoan melepas gundah gulana sambil membunuh waktu sebelum tenggelam dalam kesibukan masing-masing... inilah tokoh dari dua dunia tersebut :

kajool makhluk dari dunia manusia

theo makhluk dari dunia imajinasi

yah begitulah akhirnya kita berpoto-poto dengan segala pose yang saat itu terbesit di kalbu... (ahahaha, aduh bahasanya ajaib banget ya, sekalian aja nulis beginian pake bahasa kalbu)..

pose-pose aneh bin ajaib

setelah dilihat-lihat kok poseku jelek semua ya... hmmm itu bukan jelek cuma sedikit lebih kreatif aja memainkan ekspresi wajah.. (ahahha.. ngebela diri #ngeles.com).. tapi akhirnya setelah dicari-cari ternyata ada satu poto yang menunjukan rupa manisku.. (cikiiiiuuuww akhirnya~ yeyeyeyeyyeeiiiiii~~) jengjengjeng ini dia......

ini satu-satunya poto yang aku keliatan manis.. hehehe :P

Dari dunia yang penuh coklat dan permen

Santa Fe's tradition, Mexico

This is one of Santa Fe's best-loved traditions, and it has been an annual rite since 1924, when artist Will Shuster created Zozobra, inspired by seeing the Holy Week celebration of Mexico's Yaqui Indians. Every year Santa Fe stuffs all their wishes and troubles into a huge bogeyman marionette called Zozobra. Then they burn him down in a glorious blaze of pyrotechnics and fireworks putting all their troubles behind them. This year, Zozobra takes place on September 8 in Fort Marcy Park.

ZOZOBRA...!!  VIVA LA FIESTAAA!!

Last Date Conversation by Mejiku

Well, I know I’m not the most romantic guy in the world
I can not create even a simple line of a love note.
All I want to do is to tell you how much I would like to stay for you.
But circumstances won’t allowed me,
You know I must go, dear.
Far away and it takes longer than a day.


Well boy, I know you’re not the most romantic guy in the world.
But you already mesmerize me with your simple words.
All I want is you, and for you to stay with me. I don’t want these things to change.
I don’t care what’s going on,
I just don’t want to be alone.
I can not be apart from you; please I’m begging you…


I just want you to be near. You know how much it would mean,
To see you laugh and hold your hand when we’re dating on a weekend.
Girl, I know what you trying to say, but I can’t.
It just too complicated for me, to choose between my two dreams.
I want you, but I can’t do what you ask me to do.


Well boy, I just have one question left: Does this mean we are over?
No, babe. I’ll be gone for a while but I want you and me still together.
How can I be sure that you will keep your heart to me and you won’t see other girls?
You know I would not do that. How can I convince you?
Just stay here and be with me.
No, no. I must go.
Babe, I just want you to stay.
You know I would if I can.
I hope it doesn’t just another lie you’ve made.
(I never lie to you…) Girl, I need you to understand we are meant to be.
I don’t get what you trying to say. Do you want to run away?
No, babe. I want you to wait. I’ll be back again……


Someday….
Please babe, take my promise, just wait……
(Ok, I’ll take your promise, I’ll wait……)
I’ll be back someday, ‘till then……
(You’ll be back someday, ‘till then……)
Don’t ever let me go……


I’m so glad you telling me this now…
Baby, I want you to wait. I’ll be back again someday…
Someday…

Kajool itu... ya gitu deh..

hmmm, siapa sih kajool ini baiklah dia bukan saudara kandungku, bukan juga teman sekampusku, bukan juga teman sekosanku tapi entah kenapa takdir berbicara lain dan telah mempertemukan kami sebagai teman baik.. (*sok berfilsuf)

hehe.. :P Kajool itu nama aslinya siti anisah, kalo kita cari di google akan muncul 295.000 postingan yang terkait dengan nama tersebut.. hah? kok bisa?! emang si kajool ini artis ya?! kok bisa ada banyak postingan ampe ratusan ribu gitu? eiiitts, tunggu dulu ada juga artis sinetron di indonesia yang namanya siti anisah, selain itu banyak juga orang indonesia yang anaknya bernama siti anisah jadinya yah begitulah.. (tapi perasaan nama aslinya artis yang satu itu seharusnya siti anizah, pake "z" bukan pake "s" tapi kayaknya banyak yang salah tulis deh.. yasudahlah #skip #abaikansaja #sekilasinpo #gakpenting)

yang berjilbab itu kajool yang satunya lagi itu si siti anizah *seleb

si kajool ini ya, walopun bukan selebriti tapi dia cukup mempengaruhi orang dari tutur kata dan kepribadiannya loh.. ati-ati kalo kamu pikir dia tipikal orang yang gampang dibego-begoin (yah dari segi tampang sih dia keliatan kayaknya baik hati, lemah lembut, suka menabung ,dsb) tapi kalo sekalinya ngomong kadang suka nusuk dan mengiris-iris hati loh.. kata-katanya itu mak jang kadang tajam banget bah! yah kalo gak kuat mah hati-hati aja temenan ama dia, tapi niatnya baik kok (*Suer :))

@kajool room kok aku keliatan kayak cowok yah! huff biarkanlah

aku sempat nge"googling" dengan kata sandi "Siti Anisah, upi, pkn" yang muncul sih dikit kok cuma 9.900 postingan (itu juga banyak tauk! payah nih ah itung-itungannya :P) tapi postingan yang paling atas ternyata emang bener tentang siti anisah yang aku kenal.. cihuiii.. postingan itu tentang data pembagian tempat beserta kelompok KKN untuk mahasiswa UPI tahun 2010 yang lalu.. hehe ini foto-foto dari tkp mangga dicek gan.. :) :D

oh mak.. niat kali ya awak ngubek-ngubek mbah google buat nyari info-info yang terkait dengan kajool.. (*lebay lagi deh, perasaan gak ngubek-ngubek deh wong langsung ketemu pas sekali nyari :P). Lain kali dilanjutkan yang lebih heboh ahhh~~ ikan hiu menari-nari.. yuk, dadah mariii~ hahahaha
