Shoes Society

14:53

I happen to be a shoes-aholic. I can't stand for not buy a pair of beautiful shoes. (un)fortunately, there are so many beautiful shoes out there which always ready to be brought home -both branded and unbranded. *tongue out* I don't believe about love at the first sight to human being, but i do believe in love at the first sight to a pair of beautiful shoe.  Lucky me, my parents and boyfie are OK about it *even though sometimes they complaint about it*

It's all started since I was in junior high school. I went to a private high school so I didn't have to wear black shoes (regulation of public school in Indonesia atm). I had 14 pairs of shoes when I was in junior high *grin*-most of them are red & pink. My favourite brand was Gosh. In senior high, I collected less than in junior high. My favourite brand were Adidas and Converse. Things got more serious when I go to university. I've been receiving kind of monthly 'pocket' money from my parents. I managed it well so that I could still but any shoes that I want --I never asked money from my parent to buy shoes...I managed it from my monthly 'pocket' money.

I've been collecting many kinds of shoes from many brand -local and international. Kinds of shoes that I've been collecting until now are Wellington boot, Dr.Martens, Gladiator, Loafer, Oxford, Ballerina Flats, Slip-on, Moccasin, Dockside, Wedges, Stiletto, Platform, Ankle strap, Nike Air, sneakers, Mary janes, Pump and Open toe sandals. The international brands are mostly from H&M, Dr.Martens, Forever21, Zara, Stradivarius, Rubi Shoes, Pull and Bear, New Look, Nike, Puma and Adidas. For local brand, I like PopFlats and AdorableProjects.

Speaking of shoes, earlier today I woke up and busy doing nothing -I'm in 2 weeks semester break. So I decided to clean up my shoes, took it all out to get some fresh air and then I realized that my shoes storage is out of space *tongue out*. And these are some of my babies (read: shoes):

Good Things

20:22

I happened to watch About Time which starring Domhall Glesson and Rachel McAdams. You've gotta get yourself watching this movie cause it's worth your time. Beside of the casts and the story,  I like some good quotes from the movie, and this one is my fave:

"Part one of the two part plan, was that I should just get on with ordinary life, living it day by day like anyone else. But then came part two: Live every day again almost exactly the same. The first time with all the tension and worries that stop us noticing how sweet the world can be, but the second time...noticing." - Tim

Yeah...let's notice the good things every day :)

Please welcome *drumrolls* VALENTINO ROSSI!

So I came back home early today after spending a lotta time doing Foreign Direct Investment project for International Business class. I got home around 8pm which quite early if compare to my regular day. I got nothing to do so I chose to watch an Indonesia comedy tv show -YKS- on Trans Tv.

I chose to watch YKS because the casts are all hilarious and i love to laugh a lot...so, yeah. At first, I noticed some flags and banner of Valentino Rossi Official fans club in Indonesia -I'm a die hard fans of Vale so i'm one of the member. I saw there're a lot of Rossifumi (nick for Vale's fans), so there was a thought across in my mind.

I was like "haaa, if only YKS was able to have Valentino Rossi live on their show. They will totally get the highest rating in Indonesia....and we, Rossifumi, will be ecstatic"

The thought was just like that and I continued to watch the show and enjoyed the laugh. After the commercial break, they got a new segment and had Indonesian World Rally Championship (WRC) racer, Rifat Sungkar as the speaker. I was watching and texting with my boyfie so I didn't really pay attention. Until then, two of YKS casts said that they have another speaker. And when I turned my eyes on the TV, THERE CAME VALENTINO ROSSI!!!!!!!! *gasp*


I was really excited, and happy, and speechless. I literally jump to my bed and turn up the volume (I dunno why but I always turn the TV volume up whenever I see something exciting on TV). I was really surprised as well because i was kinda missed the news about him visiting Indonesia. 

I watched the show happily and excitedly without blinking *tongue out*. I was really, really happy to watch him live on TV. I watched him A LOT on tv during the race and other event, but having him in Indonesia is just different. I'm so happy that YKS could manage to have him there live on the show. It really made my day. I had a GREAT DAY! *dance*

Ti amo, Vale *smooch*

(last minute) 2013 Kaleidoscope

21:58

2013 has been the most rock n roll year in my life. It all started when my mother diagnosed with cancer in January *BUMMER* My world was really falling apart -It's just something you least expected to hear from the doctor. My mom was doing both chemo and radiation to kill the cancer cell for months in Singapore. (And there, I visiting Singapore a lot). Everyday my sister & I accompanied my mom to do the radiation & once a week for the chemo. There, I observed & learned so many thing about life. And also how tough my mom was to fight for her life. And it was such a relieved that MY MOM IS CANCER-FREE by the august 2013 -no 2nd cycle of chemo needed *pheeew*. I witnessed myself that God is SOOOOO GREAT all the time, that we can't do anything to pay it back. 

But then my mom's cancer was not the only big thing happened in my life during 2013. There was this girl who "accidentally" checked on one of my social account and claimed that I offended her (and the whole family). From that day on, I  dealt with so many thing about her. Somehow she was soooo negative that I felt like i need to fight her back to prove my point. We did some kinda "twit war" a lot. Until then one day, I directly talked to her and made things clear. This might sounds such a no big deal for you, but I learned so many things from it.

I learned that it's not about how ppl disturb, mock, or whatever it is; it's about how we respond to those ppl. It's our attitude towards problems. You guys might have seen the quote about it many times, but trust me, it's not as easy as it sounds. However, I'm happy now that i can finally nailed it! I've won the battle with the negative stuff.

Beside all two probs i mentioned before, there were many things happened that really make me understand about many thing; that tested my patience and all that: being gossiped, getting for granted, fake friends, backstabber, struggle with Mandarin 😜. You might have read me been talking about problem, but somehow there is one BIG thing that i gained from these probs: BE PATIENT!

I've issue about patience -patient toward many things. I've been asking God so that i could me a bit more patient, but then that was all that i got: probs that really annoys me. Then i realized that that's the thing that I should experienced in order to become a more patient (and humble) person. Not just patient and humble, but at the top of all, to worship God for all that have done happening in my life especially 2013.


It's the last day of 2013, I've made myself some list of my 2014 resolution. I hope that in 2014, I could achieve more and more things in my life....not just for me, but to glorify my Almighty God: Jesus Christ!

A Little Note For Me

21:33

10 reminders worth remembering today:

1) Treat yourself the way you want others to treat you!
2) The biggest obstacles in your life are the barriers your mind creates.
3) Sometimes to get where you want to go, you have to do what you are afraid to do.
4) You must find the place inside yourself where nothing is impossible.
5) You don’t have to see the whole staircase, you just have to take the first step.
6)  No matter how many times you revisit the past, there’s nothing new to see.
7) No matter how difficult things were yesterday, you are armed with the ability and choice to do better today.
8) Never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life.
9) You can only be yourself, and other people can only be themselves.
and 10.) Sometimes it’s okay if the only thing you’re doing is breathing.
