to chop or not to chop?

my strands have grown so long and unstructured that i need to get a fresh hair cut. well, an option is to chop my hair to medium-length like these ladies..


i heart selena gomez's and jessica alba's hairstyle the most. super gorgeous rite?

however, i got to put the possibility of every-morning-rush as my consideration.. because when u have medium length hair, straightening iron and blow dryer are compulsary. it's nearly impossible to attain such nearly perfect hair *at least for me* without spending at least 15 mins on blow dryer and hair roller *the bigger, the better* hahaha.. oh, i don't think i could handle such rush every morning.

shoes-ism

today i forgot to bring my BB and i kinda miss twitter almost as equal as i miss my push e-mail service. so here i am, try to express how i feel through blogspot. ;)

today's been a quite gud day, except for the fact that my head feels like spinning around due to lack of sleep last nite ;( the rest is gud, especially for today's lunch menu. my office just changed the catering vendor and today they serve AWESOME dishes. me totally like them! honey sauce prawn, thai kwetiaw, stir fried beef, tofu sapo, and meatball soup. yummy:)

tonight's plan: go to ATM machine to refund travel expense, buy my dinner at KFC or that grilled chicken stall, then read latest issue of elle mags until i fall asleep. zzzzz..

PS: currently, i'm eyeing on a pair of peach gem stones sandals at charles and keith. the colour goes beautifully with my skin tone. unfortunately, the heels is approximately only like 3" or so. but still cool anyway. i know it'll look very perfect with my beige batwing-alike top (in indonesian it's called baju bodo/kelelawar) for my graduation day

ohya, i also found a very flattering flat sandals with just rite dose of studs. tres chic! but i'll probably rethink of buying this pair of sandals, it's not very urgent anyway:)

my weekend

my weekend started with attending Jakarta Fashion Week Closing Party on Friday nite. it was so nice to visit that event with my college besties:) too bad that we didn't take a lot of pics in the party. however, it was a quite nice party with free flow champagne and finger food hehe.

the runway show was great with max mara and several chosen indonesian designers on stage. it's kinda fun to see my junior high school friend got the 'favorite model award' from the photographers, the doll face Laura Basuki. honestly, that was the first time i see her on stage and i must admit that she's got the talent :) nice job!

btw, after attending that event, i was very very motivated to exercise more. my god, those models are just so skinnnyyyyyyy and fab. haha

on saturday, i went to bandung. too bad i wasn't able to shop at happy-go-lucky anddue to heavy traffic jam here, there, and everywhere. i still kinda enjoyed it because of the nice dishes i had there. hihihi:) zuppa zuppa soup and beef gyumaki at the valley, nice chinese food at gading, breakfast at rotiku, etc etc :):):) i wanna have another bandung trip again but minus the heavy traffic jam. hiks..

scarcity

been a while since the last time i updated my blog. i just dunno what to write.

so, i've been at my new working place for exactly 3 weeks. things have been good and smooth sailing :) hopefully, this is the right company to place my career.

okey, so now i have my own salary, medical benefit, etc. i hope i'd be able to spend and save my money wisely althou in my head now, i'm totally busy making priority list. remember economic constraint/scarcity principle rite? limited sources, unlimited wants. to put it in indonesian "banyak maunya" hehe.

i think i'd buy my fam an early xmas gift, buy that very very petite diamond stud earrings, double breasted jacket, nice heels... err, whoah... chill.. ;)

au revoir et a bientot!

yesterday was my last day at loreal.. i know i'm going to miss those make up classes, beauty workshops, make up bar, glossy mags, and definitely my colleagues and boss as well. i learn so many things from them, especially on how to translate a grand strategy into execution that consists sooooo many fine details *the details are so tiny that might require you a microscope to see them hehe*

oh, and my colleagues gave me some nice freebies as my goodbye present *pardon the image quality*
















i like them a lot. now i could save so much spaces in my bag by having those cute mini make ups hehe. Thanks a lot:) Btw, you can have them all *oops, except the Hydra Zen Day Cream* by simply buying Lancome's products worth IDR 1,500,000

L to R: Mini Eyeshadow Quad #350 - Mini Gloss - Mini Juicy Tubes - Mini Virtuose Mascara - Mini Magnifique EDT - Hydra Zen Day Cream - Mini Bifacil - Mini Khol

BTW, i really love that Hydra Zen Day Cream, very relaxing for both my skin and temper. Althought the texture is cream, it surprisingly doesn't break my skin out. I think I'd purchase the complete range if it does good within one week or so :)

mineral foundie

Happy Eid Fitr to everyone. May God bless you all x)

during this quite short eid-fitr holiday, i've been hardly spent my time on sephora.com. at first i only wanted to look around, but it ended up in deep confusion on whether i should give mineral make up a second chance or not.

i once used this mineral make up *but i can't tell which brand hehehe*, but my skin broke out. uhuhu, well, til now i'm not sure whether it was caused by hormone imbalance, my allergy to bismuth oxychloride, or the texture of the free kabuki brush that is a bit rough *and too bad i hardly washed it* hehehe.

well well, maye i'd rather stick to my conventional loose powder.. i can't stand the risk.. haha, enuff said. the girls at lancome have this gorgeous skin... so, i don't want to make the disparity any further. haha.

ohya, i also found many MANY eye candies there. Cutie eye shadow palettes from Tarte, Too Faced, and Sephora. very berry cute packaging. but again, i don't think i'd buy them because first I don;t know whether if they have rich pigment. Second, I am waiting for Lancome's Declaring Indigo palette in Or Liberte to be launched here in Indonesia *crossing fingers, hope it would be happening soon*

but really, i love the packaging. Especially this studded eyeshadow palette from Tarte (Courtesy: sephora.com). Cute rite, looked like clutch bag. Maybe I'll make myself make up pouch that looked like this cutie hehehe

j'aime bien

random facts:
  1. i totally love glossy magazines. and my working place is heaven for people like me because they always have the latest issue of elle, bazaar, female, herworld, dewi, etc; therefore, they're all now become my daily dose. and this is really good since i'm totally into glossy magazines and hardly read motivational books. don't get me wrong... i enjoy reading investment books much more than reading motivational books and i read newspapers just-so you know but.... well, i just never feel any kind of enlightment or excitement after reading motivational books.
  2. i love udon udon udon and any other kind of noodle or pastas. i always wish that ind*mie one day would produce an msg-free version of its superb noodle product.
  3. i love the fact i can write for magazines eventhou i don't work for a magazine
  4. dreams do come true, even my silly milly dream for an eyeliner that could be applied like the way i applied marker or felt tip pen. yes yes, i found this liner design from lancome, a fool-proof eyeliner that is suitable for people like moi, who always want make up to have big impact with such low effort hehe. well, the colour is not as opa
