18th thing I'd like to share - Three Bears Cafe Bandung

Hello!

I have mentioned about my outing with this girl, japobsganbare.blogspot.com 

so here I'll write about our visit to a cafe, Three Bears.

It is located in Paskal Hypersquare Bandung and it's not difficult to find.

It has great interior design, maybe I should go for the word "cute" instead.

I cannot tell much about the food and deserts since we only try one of many menus there.

Here is some photos of the place:

The place is great, maybe we came when it's the right time and not too crowded. Deserts are delicious, but drinks are not too recommended. Foods are just fine.

17'th thing I'd like to share - D.Gray-man

Anime lover, who doesn't know D.Gray-man?

It's an anime adopted from the great manga by Katsura Hoshino. 

The plot is about a young boy that cursed by his adopted father to have the ability to see the soul of  demons. This young boy is trained to be an exorcist at Blackorder organization. 

D.Gray-man Anime

It is one of my top-three anime. I have preference for action, historical, comedy genres of Anime. The plot is really good, Hoshino-sensei is really good at placing the humorous part and the drawing is neat. The same goes for the anime, it's a bit different from the manga but never really goes out of the plot. Her characters are all charming! Especially the males >///<

D.Gray-man Manga and Original Drawing of Katsura Hoshino-sensei

 I love all her characters! My most favourite one is Lavi Bookman. He's the mature, clever, playboy, silly, but you can count on him type (totally my type ;)). I would say the story is really original, since I have never read another like this one. I've read the manga 3 times, and watched the anime around 5 or 6 times. I really love her work! 

Lavi Bookman

Sadly, rumoured is Hoshino-sensei currently having a bad health that she cannot continue her manga immediately. I am very looking forward for the continuation of the manga. It's on the critical part now. Hope Hoshino-sensei will recover soon and be able to make manga again *praying*

So, this post ends here!

Hope the D.Gray-man fandom will grow bigger with this post, and let me know if you are one of its fans! :) 

Love

16th thing I'd like to share - Lucid Dream

A couple days ago, I experience a heavy lucid dream. Lucid dream is a dream where one is aware that he/she is dreaming. It is said that it can be trained but I don't know anything about that. From this post, I only wanted to share.

The day I had the lucid dream is a happy day, but also a tiring day. I felt tired for unknown reason and it happened from 4 p.m. So I took a nap. Woke up on 6 p.m. and do activities until 11 p.m.

I went to sleep in a good mood, but weirdly I have a bad dream. Maybe I do have some deep thinking without realizing, it is said that dream reflects what's on mind, right? :)

Okay, back to the dream. The first time I went to sleep, I have a dream involving a vampire story, so I struggled to wake up. Funny thing is, I have to wake up three time until I were truly awake, but I do know that I am still dreaming before I truly awake. This is lucid dream.

It happened two times until I am in a deep sleep. And the dream continue until I woke up the next morning. It truly is a tiring sleep. I awoke in a bad state, my body was limp and my eyes felt heavy so I went asleep again but I don't remember what I dream of that morning :)

Have you ever experience lucid dream?

I will be very happy if you want to share or comment on this post! 

Love,

15th thing I'd like to share - Trip to Kawah Putih

Heyya, I know I'm supposed to be writing my dissertation, but I'm in a block (yeah I use the term writer-block). Seriously I have many things I needed to be done but I do not have the interest in doing them.

Let's just write a post about my trip to Kawah Putih this year.

Kawah Putih is a destination spot for those who are nature enthusiast. It is located in the south of Bandung, West Java. It is a beautiful crater lake. For more information, go to this link.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kawah_Putih

Here are some photos I took there:

I went with my family and we rented a  car to reach Kawah Putih. If you go there with travelling agents, word is that you need to pay for minivan that will take you from the parking spot and it cost a little plus you will need to wait for enough people to join the same car you're riding.

I don't find it too cold there, but the weather is quite unstable so I suggest you to bring umbrella and jacket. And also if you have a weak lung, it is better if you prepare a mask. Umbrella and mask are prepared by people there, but you have to pay for it of course. 

This post ends here. I hope you find it useful and helpful.
Love

14th thing I'd like to share - Cute Outfits/Summer/Spring/Part1

Exactly one week ago, I went back to my hometown to do some business. Okay, it involves my dissertation. I went back bringing some outfits, but I only managed to wear one outfit due to my health issue. If I'm asked, I haven't really consider what my style type is. I have tendency to just wear what I like, depends on what my mood is on that day. But, mostly I prefer cute, colorful outfit. I also like edgy, classic and vintage style. 

So here we are:

 I got my photos taken at a spot where my doctor's house is around there. And credits are to my talented beautiful mother, taken by her iPad mini. This one is taken in my house:

Top details : polkadot (I love polkadot!)

As a blogger, I found it is important to have a high resolution camera, which I always wanted one but unable to buy one until now. I don't remember how my savings were spent, okay I lied :)

Thinking about it, I found my money ran to fashion items (clothes, bags, shoes, and others), foods (YEP, I love food), and movies. I don't really like going to cinema to watch movie, I will blog about it later :) 

This post ends here. Love,

13th thing I'd like to share - Workout!

Hey people!

I've just added simple workout to everyday tasks list. 

Yeah, I finally realize workout is necessary. Reasons? I want a FLAT belly and SHAPED legs.

I'm trying to get it into my routine, slowly of course. What I meant is, I'm not a living-a-healthy-life person, and I have stopped working out about 1 or 2 years already. So I only do some light and simple workout in a small cycles first.

SNSD Members 

Have you heard of SNSD? Of course you know them, maybe you're one of their fans. I'm not their fans but yeah, I enjoy some of their songs occasionally. Being their fans or not, you must have realized their slim figure yet how they managed to dance energetically and follow their tight schedules. They do lots of workout to maintain their health and shapes, not forgetting diet :)

Well, I'm not an easily fat person, but yes, my belly RARELY flat. What I want is a REALLY flat belly, not the type of flat on the center but bulging diaphragm. So, about legs, I do research about how SNSD work their legs. And I found the same exercise from some videos. It is called SNSD 5-3-2 rules if I'm not mistaken. Here I'll give you link of the videos. Watch here:

Now, about belly exercise, I found out simple yoga could give you flat belly if you do it frequently. I do these poses for about 5 times per pose.

If you want to know more about the proper exercises, go to this site, it is my source:

12th thing I'd like to share - It's Saturday!

Good morning people! Rise and shine!

I decided this morning would be the first morning for me to start my new routine.

My day started with reading an article about how to be a young successful woman. Here I list 5 of what I have read just now:
1. Make clear goals (long term and short term)
2. Believe in yourself (focus on your goals)
3. Respect others (you need others to be able to move on)
4.Be dedicated and organised (make to do list to keep track)
5. Say no (again, focus on your goals)
I read it from Bloglovin! Such a nice way to start a day.

So, I have done those things back in my early years of university. Now I'll start with new goals so, new routine!

Also, today I'll meet my friend, mei, who is currently a famous blogger, read here japobsganbare.blogspot.com

we will go to Paskal Hypersquare, and I'll tell you what we do today later!

Have a great day!

11th thing I'd like to share - Self Thinking

It may be late for me to talk about this. Well, it's better late than never right?

So what made me suddenly thinking?

It all begins while I was updating my linkedIn profile and searching for words that describe what my personality traits are. This search made me look through myself, about how I am these years. And, it leads me to my own opinion of experiences throughout these 4 years of my university life.

Sadly, I have to admit I am no longer an influencer and stand out from the other, and it has been that way since I join senior high school.

I traced back to what caused this because it is making me desperate in my social life. Not forgetting about the declining line of self quality I am building.

I think the answer is the isolation I build between me and other people in my life, especially friends. Yep, isolation. What caused me to distance myself from the other?

It is hard for me to admit this, but in order to move on and repair my quality, I need to learn to let go. I have no confidence in associating with others. Why? 

First of all, senior high school is the time that most people find exciting. They extend their world by communicating with a lot of people, making new friends, going out and have fun. 

The senior high school life I saw is like this: friends or colleagues I knew all spent their time together, went to cinemas, mall or friends' houses after school. They went out to places to chat and just have fun. 

What I had in my senior high school life is mostly at home, watching movies or surfing internet. I was socially active in social media, because I can't go out, or precisely, I chose not to go out. It was because my house is damn far from others, and I have no license and no permission to take the car. My parents are too busy to send me to where my friends are, and sometimes, because of my parents' positive protection (I can't say that they are overprotective), I always end up arguing with them about going out with my friends. So to avoid arguing, I chose to isolate myself. Conclusion : I can't have what mostly my friends have.

Elementary school is different. I was living in benefit because of my sister's achievement. People knew me, aside from my outstanding blonde hair that easily recognized. Teachers giving me positions at school because of my talents. It made me confident to associate with others.

See why I said my life quality line is declining?

It affects me until the time I enter university. I was afraid to voice out my opinions while I had the chances. Afraid to be different and show people what I am capable of, forgetting about the importance of first impression. I forgot how to blend into a society and it's hard for me to make new friends. During four years of university, I decided to give up. I have no time for society that rejects me and indulge myself in society that accepts me. I failed to realize that it will make people fail to realize my charm. And now I'm reaping what I sowed. When I voice out my opinion or analysis of situation, mostly people who do not know me won't listen to me. I am desperate. I feel they look down on me and not respecting me. 

But is it true? 

Tonight I thoroughly traced all my past, and I found out everything leads back to me. I caused this myself. If I were more open in my senior high school life, explaining to friends why I never go out with them; if I were more understanding to the worries of my parents and talk to them and gain their trust; if I saw new stage of life in university as a new situation and condition where I could bring back my charm, maybe I won't experience all those sad life.

Tonight, I decided to look at my past as a meaningful experiences and not mourn over them. I decide from tomorrow on, I will be a new person, a person full of confidence, charming and step out of my comfort zone!
