A real quick getaway

Going out with my besties always be my favorite thing to do. It was so relieving yesterday when i met up with my besties. It's a real quick getaway to help re-energize and refresh myself from all the skripshit things i've been through lately. We went to ITC Fatmawati to buy some DVDs and went to PIM 2 to grab some sushi.

Best finds in ITC Fatmawati:

Rona recommended me to buy Little Mermaid I, II, III DVDs

..and what we're doing there in PIM:

She wished she could be a witch. I wished i could be a devil, who wears Prada, indeed. cx

We had so much fuuuun! We laughed till we dropped, we shopped till we broke. haha.

Batik Apparels

I don’t usually like wearing something that so many people wear. I follow trends but not in a freaky way which all people in the mall, at the market, everywhere i see them wearing that fashion thing. It happened when Batik madness was contagious in Jakarta. Everyone were wearing Batik top, Batik dress, even Batik sandals. I appreciated it much. I loved to see people wearing those Batik apparels. They looked good wearing that. It’s so Indonesia! I didn’t wear Batik (like all those people did).. until my mom bought me this dress. I just couldn’t stand to wear it to my best friend dad’s wed.

We were so pretty pretty wearing Indonesian traditional clothes in a modern way

hehehe.. There’s another cute batik dress i wore to my besties’ dinner bday bash 2 months ago. It’s daster actually. ^Daster is Indonesian term for a sleeping dress.^ My mom bought for her self till i begged her to give it to me so that i could wear it as a dress. I wore it with a green leather belt, a pair of brown gladiator sandals, and my daring red Guy Laroche bag. ..and voila! I love myself wearing my batik dress. Hihihi.. I enjoyed my time hanging around with my besties that night wearing my batik dress lookalike.

Jogja.. Never Ending Asia

I am so proud to be a Javanese people, i have to admit that. I would too, if i were Sundanese, Bataknese, Manadonese, etc.. cos me so proud to be an Indonesian with all the exotic cultures we have here.

People around the world know Indonesia from its Bali, but now, so proud to announce you that, hey! we have Jogja with all the uniqueness from its culture. Here in Jogja, there are so many interesting places to visit. Jogja has Kaliurang (a popular mountain resort), Taman Sari (a water castle, used to be female bathing pools), Imogiri (official cemetery of the royal descendents from Jogyakarta and Surakarta), Bringharjo Traditional Market, Parangtritis Beach, Prambanan Temple, and the most famous & most visited street.. Malioboro (full of souvenir stalls and famous for its lesehan foodstalls).

So many stories to tell about my excursion to Jogja this past week. No i didn't visit all the places i've mentioned before cos i've done it like million times in my younger years. ..But those are some new places i visited, never been there before, which're really fun to hang out in. Those places are Alun-Alun Kidul with its famous twin trees, Goa Maria Jatiningsih (my friends Vigara & Puput took me there), and Sky Garden Cafe Resto.
