Yo Yo Yiggady Yo. I'm back. I'm really sorry for the lack of posting. The last holiday (if it was count as a holiday) was really fascinating and I was seriously enjoying my life without anything internet-related (although I checked it out sometimes).

About the outfit... Dude, I love this dress so much! It's simple, loose-fit, and very comfortable. And it was on sale. Aha. That's why I love it so much. It also goes with almost anything. I paired it with these 'peeping' AA shorts from Chictopia rewards. Then, what I love about the jacket are the wicked color and the 80's shape. Although it has this fugly print on the back so I didn't have any choice but stud it myself to cover the print. It took almost 3 days to finish it. Fhew. I made this headband for a contribution to Gogirl! magazine web. It's quite easy to make so you could try if you like it =]

Anyway, I watched two movies this week, New Moon and (500) Days of Summer. New Moon sucks (no offense, fans). Such a garbage. Twilight is just umm-yeah-okay and it's much better than New Moon. I didn't see anything but cheesy love story, lame dialogues, and horrible acts. I hate Bella's obsession (err.. what? love? hell no!) to Edward and for me, she just look like a bitch. Sorry, I'm a fan of Kstew but this is really disappointing. It's really nice to see her act and sing in Into The Wild than craving for a hot vampire or shirtless werewolf (I don't even like Rpatz and TayL). IMHO, New Moon is one of the worst movies that I've watched in 2009. The other way, the soundtrack is awesome. Death Cab For Cutie, Band Of Skulls, Thom Yorke, Lykke Li, Black Rebel Motorcycle, Sea Wolf, Ok Go, Grizzly Bear, Editors, etc are just W.O.W. I love them.

How about (500) Days of Summer? It's AH-MAZING! One of the best movies that I've watched in 2009 and I'm not joking. And it's not a cheesy love story. Hahaha. Here's the trailer:

(500) Days of Summer is really refreshing. It's funny, unique, and true to life. It's got something for everybody to like. Even the soundtrack is beyond too cool. It's like a tribute to The Smiths. I love when Summer (Zooey Deschanel) sang 'Sugar Town' by Nancy Sinatra for the karaoke scene. Zooey even chose her own song for this scene. I love Joy Division and The Clash t-shirts worn by Tom (Joseph Gordon-Levitt). I love Regina Spektor's catchy music for opening credit.

The most painful scene was the ending bench-scene. And I think that was the best part and the best memorable quotes.

Summer : I just... I just woke up one day and I knew.

Tom : Knew what?

Summer : What I was never sure of with you.

But there were also lots of funny lines. Even from the author!

Author's Note: The following is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to persons living or dead is purely coincidental. Especially you Jenny Beckman. Bitch.

Also, these lines are legends.

Summer : We've been like Sid and Nancy for months now.

Tom : Summer, Sid stabbed Nancy, seven times with a kitchen knife, I mean we have some disagreements but I hardly think I'm Sid Vicious.

Summer : No, I'm Sid.

Tom : Oh, so I'm Nancy...

The director even made a short movie about this Sid and Nancy scene. It's so hilarious =D

Okay, I should shut my freakin' gob now. Just grab it on nearest DVD store and watch it!

Hola, I'm back! I've been (obviously) very busy this week. Haha. Okay, I'm kidding. I'm too lazy to take pictures lately and I didn't have the camera on me. I know it's a cliche reason like always. Duh. You know, the weather is lovely nowadays, especially who lives in Indonesia. No, I ain't talking about the lovely sunny weather, I hate heat. It's all about cold, rainy, and wet ground, yada yada yada. Makes me lazy but I even prepare to wear my coat within this month. I oh-so-love this.

Anyway, this silk blouse is different with the one that I wore last month on this look. The sailor-like scarf is attached to the collar and the shape of the blouse is not as loose as the previous one. But it also has the cutest shoulder-pads! And it seriously makes me look like sailor slash school girl slash stewardess slash (the one my friend told me) Japanese porn costume. Eeewwww. D.A.M.N. Whaaaaatever. My newest shoes complete this look so good, I think. And the fact that it makes me 12cm taller is flattering =P

Well, I'm going to Bandung in two hours until next week. It's so called job-duty but it feels like I'm going to have an awesome vacation. I'm soooo excited! I probably won't reach any internet-related (except for Twitter, errr.. still probably) to enjoy my perfect get-away to the maximum!

Errrrrr.. one more! I'm so excited to tell you about this ecstatic news. I got featured on TeenVogue.com! I am currently the 'Girl Of The Week'! Horaaaaaaay! You can see the article here. Thanks for letting me know, Charlene! Oh, gotta go packing. See ya =D
