Billy the Cat

 Hi, this is Billy! he is a stray cat...
There's a lot of cats in Jakarta.... unlike here in Singapore.. and most of them are so skinny! Different with the cats here who stays near food places and all fat. :D


 He likes to come to my house everyday to get food. My maid is the one who usually gives him food, but sometimes she only plays around with him.... All my family members are okay with him, even some like him very much. I'm a cat lover, however I don't like him very much, but I'm okay with him. Except for my dad, he hates him so much.... The cat better stay far far away from my dad if it doesn't want it's butt to be kicked...literally.


I just don't know why can people hate cats. I mean, look at that innocent eyes!!!
*_*




Till next time.

Cafe Hunting with Bestie

This is a very very late post of my outing with bestie (#throwback). It was another holiday for us and we decided to go out just trying nice cafes located in Central Jakarta, in Senayan City. 

This is the photo of us inside the car when on the way~


 Meet my most absurd and retarded bestie ever
HAHAHA

 We heard about this place named Portico and it looks nice. When we arrived there, just as expected. It is nice. I love the interior so much, however the meal was so-so, not worth the price I think... 
But we got a lot of nice photos there!!! 





And then the journey goes on to the next Italian restaurant~
We mostly eat western and Italian food every time we go together...







Another narcissistic selca!!!!

 This is what I actually wear that day... My friend said that my outfit was too bright and too much..
But oh well, I just wear what I think is nice.
Pardon my weird fashion sense...


 a good meal will never be completed without a DESSERT~
So, we decided to go to Haagen-Daaz (an ice cream shop) to get an ice cream!
This is actually the first time for me to order something from their menu book.
I usually buy the cone ice cream instead~





After eating ice cream we become thirsty... so we decided to go to Chatime to get a bubble tea!!
This photo below was taken in Chatime... and you can see the mall behind me~



Anddd, we end the day with another donut from J.CO Donuts!!!!
We really ate a lot that day....... But my friend doesn't need to worry since she is always skinny no matter how much she ate.... sooooo envy her







That day was such a fun day, we talked a lot, gossiped too, and most importantly..
WE ATE A LOT 
specially the foods are really nice.... 

So until next time~

Sunday Morning Gardening

Back in my house in Jakarta, I don't have a garden... I don't even have a space for it because my house is located in a cramped and busy area where the houses are only tall 3 stories high and not wide. My house is not like houses in a specific housing location... It is just so noisy in my place and crowded, it's just... not nice. -_-
So that's why when we want to plant plants we can only do it inside a pot. I'm not really a green thumb actually but I was inspired from a K-drama called Love Rain where the main character loves to garden. (SEE HOW EASY I GET INFLUENCED! OMG)

So it was a Sunday morning an the weather was cool and breezy when I watered the flowers.. so I thought why not take photos in this perfect day.



The first one is my favorite plant which only blooms flower in the morning. I get excited every morning to see the flowers~






The next one is this plant.. which looks nice but not really a favorite. But I did paint this plant which I will post in the next post~ (stay tuned!)

*and when you pay attention to the background you can see the house next to mine... In case if you are wondering... My house is that type too with 3 stories high and small width*




This plant below is also another of my favorite.... And it started blooming a lot!! I was super happy to see it







cute plant shaped like a hair / octopus???




And getting my sprayer  ready to give these guys a shower!!!


I also matched my nail polish that day with the color of the leves... HAHA

BANANA, BA BA NANA!

This is a banana themed post guys! It's just random and out of nowhere but that what makes it's fun to read ;)

So actually, it is only about banana flavored snacks I got in Korea. All of them tastes so nice!!! Maybe because of the banana flavor? I dunno why I just love bananas~ they are so lovable like minions!! *yayy*
 no wonder why minions love banana so much because they are SO. FREAKING. DELICIOUS!!!


The first one is this banana ice cream I got in a convenience store! I am just crazy about ice cream and I need to eat at least one per week.... (yes I am that addicted to ice cream.)

So I decided to rummage in the ice cream freezer in hope of finding a good ice cream... when I got my eye on this unique banana ice cream. 


 It tastes soo nice, just as I expected. It consists of two layers, like a real banana!
You need to peel the skin off before actually tasting the banana ice cream. You can also eat the "banana skin" because it is made of jelly candy, but I don't really like it actually. I just want the ice cream inside it. But I find the idea really nice to make an ice cream like this :D


Okay, the next one is this banana milk from Binggrae, a famous Korean brand... known for it's freaking delicious ice cream (to me).

Who doesn't know this milk?? It's really famous and tastes really good too.
They also sell it here in Singapore however with different packaging, and definitely more expensive.

So here's what it looks like. 
  


And then last but not the least, is this Dunkin Donut's banana donut!!!

 It's not actually a donut when it is not circle shaped.... But you get the idea right... Tastes really good, with the chocolate bun underneath and banana flavored sugar frosting!! I'm now craving for more.....

This banana donut can only be found in Korea I think............ Because I haven't find it in another place.



It's cracking but still nice.
So that's the last one to complete this banana post today.
until next time~

Sunny10 Special Edition

Heiho~ in this post I'm going to talk about this grape soda I got when I was going to South Korea for my holiday... This is NOT just a regular soda can. It is decorated with TAEYANG's cute face <3<3<3 
I think it is a special edition due to something about K-Pop event (I think) that was being held there. I think if you are a Bigbang fan you will be very excited and buy this thing immediately as soon as you saw it..
 just like what I did. 
So this is what the grape soda looks like~

look at that cute wink!!!!! *o*

 I got this soda can in I think... Incheon International Airport? In Seven Eleven... I was really thirsty that time so I was finding something fresh to drink when I got my eyes on this handsome soda can. :B Hahaha they have a lot of version with the other BigBang members with different soda flavours, but I chose you Taeyang <3... Anyway, for the taste of the soda I think it's just a regular grape soda.. It's nothing special, it's sweet and quite nice. It tastes really good maybe because I was just thirsty at that time. But actually it is just normal grape soda taste.

Indonesian Childhood Cracker

This post is going to be so nostalgic. There's this crackers named Nissin Crispy Crackers, it doesn't have any flavours in it only a bit salty and smells like cheesy buttery like. It tastes really good back then... But I think they modify the flavourings nowadays because it doesn't taste the same anymore. This was a childhood crackers. It is vintage. I think it existed even before I exist. So now you must be really curious of what it looks like.


TAADAA!!  This is the jumbo version of it... packaged in a nice and secure aluminium box.
It's almost the size of my head.

a selca bonus just for you ;)




So this is what the cracker looks like. It is very simple compared to modern crackers and cookies nowadays. The design is also very plain. But it is a special cracker to me because it helds so much memories. :) (I'm sure most of 90's Indonesian kid eat this too in their childhood). 



I remember how I used to spend weekend morning, eating this crackers as breakfast dipped in a hot sweet tea in the dining table with my family. It was a really wonderful time..



 There's also this another childhood cookie named Khong Guan Biscuits and Marie Regal... That's also a common childhood biscuits for the 90's kids :D Here's what they look like



So that's all I need to talk about in this post today..
TILL NEXT TIME~

Modeling for a day

Now I'm gonna tell you about my experience when I went to South Korea. We were given the chance to modeling for a day. We can choose whether to model a evening dress or a hanbok (traditional Korean dress). I chose to model the evening dress because I already took another photoshoot using Hanbok, so I thought it will be boring if I use Hanbok again now... So anyway here are some shots of the fashion show... Here are the other tour group's show before mine...






 Most of them use the Hanbok clothes.... The show was really nice and fun, because each person need to show a different move and pose in the end of the show. So it was interesting to see what pose they will come up. We need to go up in couples, either boys&girls, or girls&girls. Because I was left alone, so I am partnered with a local student there. There are 3 korean guys in options, but I was partnered with this guy with glasses. He was so funny, and nice. Even though we cannot really communicate due to language problems, but we did joke around and we talked about some things and we even talker about Jang Geun Suk which is my favorite actor!! *woooo*, he also told me to relax at the show later and he will help to guide me~ 

so it's finally our turn. And we were supposed to act like couple... so awkward!!





 Best photo so far below~ :D


And finally~ the show is over!!


 It was quite fun actually.... we laughed because it's just too funny to act romantic hahahahaha it is such an unforgettable memory~

 Took photo with the local Korean student... I felt so cool taking photos with them. LOL



 Later we ate lunch at a nearby Korean restaurant...


Im not a fan of Korean food but  I can say that the food here really nice, and I love a cuisine named Japchae the most~!


So that's all~ till next time
