Toys in Daily Life

Hello People, how are you??? It has been a looong looong time that I didn’t see u guys! I’m so so so sorry for leaving this web for almost 9 months! Wowww so long x_x

Well, today, I’m going to present my article entitled “Toys in Daily Life”. Yea, for almost 4 months I joined in a group of toys lover on instagram. This activity is so much fun! In every day, the group has a daily meeting between the member (we called each-other as “buddy”), it usually at 7-9 pm in my time (Bangkok time), we have to make a posting of toys photos in this group.

Only 1 photo that allowed to post in this event, buddies are required to likes and comments on the other photos. For me, this activity is not only to entertain other people, but also to learn something in photography, to get knowledge, to share the idea, and to make a social-relation between the buddies. We have a close relation in a virtual-world and I enjoy this activity.

So people, if you love toys and photoghraphy lets join in our community on instagram which hashtags are #toycrewbuddies, #toyplanet, and #toyrevolution. Keep toys alive! Enjoy!

Design Your Own Cover

Helllloooooo visitors! Happy New Year to You all! It’s surprising that this is my first post in this year, Lol,

I’m sorry that I haven’t appeared for almost 4 months! Yeah… cz there were many things to do in my life :p

In short, I was sooooo busy… Hohoho

But don’t worry, now I’m back and I’ll share an interesting topic in this site.

Last night, I tried a new feature of facebook timeline and it turned out to be so fun! At first, I was not interested in using this timeline because I thought it might be confusing to read. Yeah… That’s true… However, we’ll find something fancy from this feature especially in cover design if we know how to use this timeline.

Let’s see what I did in this facebook cover….

Actually, there are many covers that I can get in other websites such as:

Or

But I prefer to make my own covers because I can choose my favorite words, arts, colors and make it cute 😉

why not?

See???

So, make your own cover! It’s so simple! You can use photo editing programs to make this cover and add some texts on it.

Hmm… Is there anyone who doesn’t have photo editing program? Hohoho… No need to worry! I have a good idea for you! Use Microsoft PowerPoint and Paint 😀

Here are the steps:

Step 1

• CTRL+A; CTRL+C
• Move to Paint
• CTRL+V

Step 2

• Save as type JPEG
• Make sure that picture dimension is about 800 x 200 pixels
• And Tarraaaaa!!! You get your own cover!

So? What are you waiting for? Let’s try!

Let’s Color Your Life!

For a couple weeks, I am crazy about photo editing, Lol… 😀 This activity is soooo fun! You can manage your own picture as you like, just like a professional editor, hahaha.

Would like to visiting 1930 era and spend the nights like a Tarzan?

Hello Visitors! Long time no see! I’ve just had a great vacation with my family a week ago, and I’ll share it all for you my dear visitors! 😀

I spent my holiday in Malang, a unique town which is located on East Java, Indonesia. Malang is a popular spot in tourism and become to a tourist destination, because there are many interesting places to visit. Check it out! What I got there!

(My little sister loves this chocolate parfait ice-cream, yummy!)

First place, I’ll take you to the ‘classic restaurant’, Toko Oen. You can order some meals and ice cream which taste are so 40’s! Lol, Yea, If you enter this restaurant, it’ll bring you back to that time, because this restaurant still maintains its interior design since 1930. Waoooo, It’s so long looooong time ago, isn’t it? At that time, Indonesia was still colonized by the Dutch, that’s why you can see the ornament which is written in Dutch language.

(Toko Oen, Malang, East Java, Indonesia)

The second place that I’ve visited is Jatim Park 2. There are 2 kinds of Parks. If you visit Jatim Park 1, you’ll have many kinds of games for fun, but I prefer to visit Jatim Park 2, because it not only has fun games, but it also has an interesting museum and also zoo. Make sure that you have a lot of time to visit Jatim Park 2, because you’ll need a whole day for walking around this area! 😀

(Jatim Park 2 Museum – Animals Preservation)

(Jatim Park 2 – Batu Secret Zoo)

Hmmm… Or maybe you want to be Tarzan? Don’t worry! There is also a ‘tree-house’ which located near to the zoo! Just open your window, and yell out “AUO…UO…UO…” then all of the animals can hear you! You can stay in this unique hotel for couple days and enjoy your ‘wild life’ like a Tarzan 😉

(Jatim Park 2 – Pohon (Tree) Inn)

And for last, I’ll take you to my favorite restaurant, Lol, maybe you will surprise because this traditional meal is served on the banana leaf, not on the plate. But, trust me, it’s sooooooo delicious! Yummy! This traditional meal called ‘pecel madiun’. It’s similar to salad, but for sauce is made from peanuts and served along with rice. Enjoy it! :9

That’s all my dear visitors, I hope that you enjoy in reading this post! Have a nice day for you all!

Classic Ice Cream

One day, I entered an ice cream café and ordered a cup of coco-ice cream. When I tasted the coco-ice cream, there was a funny experience. Suddenly, this ice cream reminded me about my childhood. How come? Did you ever have the same experience? When you found ‘something’ that you didn’t see for a long time, it made you remembering about your activities in the past and you miss it so much. That’s what happened to me.

I remember when I was a child, my mom always fill out the refrigerator with my favorite ice cream, Manna Ice Cream, because she knew that I love this ice cream very much and so did my friends. After school time, my friends came to my house to eat ice cream together.

Manna Ice Cream is a local brand, and it was a famous brand. Every store used to sell this ice cream. It produces many kind of ice cream taste, such as chocolate, coconut, durian, strawberry, tutti-frutti, etc. Now, I can tell you that the taste of ice cream is so very ‘classic’ and so 90’s! Lol. Yea, when I tasted this ice cream, I remembered about that time. My little friends, my old neighborhood, my yard, and ‘pong-pong’, my cat…

Overall, I surprised to know that this ice cream still exist in this time, because for a long time, I didn’t see this product anymore. I know, there are many brands of ice cream products, and it might be tough in rivalry. The seller told me ‘Now, Manna Ice Cream only can be found at this place’.

Lovely Family

Family….
What do you think about this word? And what are you wish for? Currently, I’m learning this word after I watched serials movie, Parenthood. I really love this serials movie and very recommended to watch. This movie tells us about ‘what a family means’? It’s not a simple thing because every family has their own problems, but the main point is how we solve the problem? Surely, family support has a big role to solve problems in daily life, and the Braverman proved it. Day by day, problems always come in their life, and this family shows us how they handled the problems and so amazing! It’s all about ‘take and give’ and also ‘honesty’. Well, nobody’s perfect, we know that, then? Respecting between parent and their children is an important thing, whatever he/ she is.

First time, I surprised to know that Braverman still keep their relations among the family members as family’s tradition, because I thought that this extended-family’s relation only appears in East (Is that true that most of the families in West still maintain the idea of extended-family?).

Every week, they do ‘a family meeting’, share their daily experiences, and discuss together. I think that this is an ideal family type 😉
I wish that someday I found this family type.

“Death Note” Talks

Both Light Yagami (Yagami Raito/ Kira) and L are my favorite ‘nendoroid’ characters. The characters come from ‘Death Note’ Japanese animation series.

I like playing nendoroids. From this activity, I can imagine many scenarios of conversation. Look! How cute they are! xD

What are they talking about? Could you tell me? 😉

Hmmmm………

Well,it’s very interesting, isn’t it?

Bonnie and Clyde in Action

At the end of months, the police officers in my city usually do some inspections. They will check our driving license and vehicle registration for the security. If there any something wrong with those documents, then we have to pay for fines. My friends, who came from other cities, surprised of this frequent activity, “Wao! It can make me broke!” Yea definitely, they don’t have complete documents.

That was happen on me when I and my boyfriend were going to someplace. I could see how his face so pale when he saw there were so many police officer (He ever had a bad experience with police officer)

“Oh no! We should go back!” he said.

“What?! No! Don’t! It’s not possible to go back! This is one-way! You can’t go back!” I was shocked when we just too close hit a car. A police officer knew what we did and he commanded us to step aside.

“We’re going to die… My driving license has expired! Moreover, I don’t bring the vehicle registration….” My boyfriend said to me.

O.. God! I don’t know what to say when my boyfriend told the bad thing, so I just calculate the number and how much we should pay for the fines while my boyfriend met the police officer, and there was not enough money for pay fines! So, I just waited.

Five minutes later, my boyfriend came and talked to me, “Listen, we have to runaway, just act that everything is fine. You see… there are many police officers outside.”

“How ‘bout your driving license? They took that.”

“Don’t worry, it is expired… Did you know that my driver license is illegal? I put my fake address on it. Moreover I’m going to move other city next month for job. So don’t worry, they can’t find me.”

It might be crazy, but… okay, I followed his direction. So, we pass through the officer, took the scooter, and gone! Say ‘Bye’ to the police officers!

“You know, If you live with me, you must do some crimes like this.” My boyfriend said. Really? Like Bonnie and Clyde? Therefore for the readers, please don’t do what we did.

God Save My Life

For many times I have traveled by airplane and I used to be not afraid for flight, but for now, it can be said that I hate to fly with a national airplane. I still remember, there were plane accidents in 2001-2005, in my country, Indonesia, for 29 times! (It’s a fantastic number, isn’t?) How come? Some airplanes were taken from other countries and some of them are “old stuff”. That’s why I can’t trust in national flight safety.

Today, I took a flight and that was a creepy experience which made me shocked. There was turbulence which affected the whole of plane shaken. I looked at the window and so cloudy…. The pilot informed to the passenger that we have to wait till 1 hour because it was not possible for landing because there was a bad weather. A man who seated next to me just whispered in pray. Oh God what should I do? I do nothing….just pray and pray….many things in my mind…I’m not married yet, not having a children yet, not wearing hijab yet, not finish journey yet, and that’s it? If anything happen in my life at this time, then what I live for?
So, thanks God for saving my life and give a chance for me, because He understands that I should do the best thing in life and reach all my dreams.
The plane had succeed in landing. However I could see that the passengers were so panic. Well, for the next trip I prefer to take land transportation.

I Love Weekend!!!

This what I’m doing in weekend, hang out with my friend, Almira, as miley cyrus says “when the working day is done, girl just wanna have fun” 😀

She is my best friend, and for seven years we had made our friendship. That’s been a long time, isn’t?
As best friend,we always shared everything… When I was in trouble,she said “come on,you can do it” or maybe something happened that makes me sad, then she told something funny that made me laugh, and so do I, that’s what a friend for,
Hmmm…but for me she is not only a friend, but also sister.

Well there were stories of us that I can’t tell here, but surely I can’t let anyone hurts her feeling because I will very angry and very mad on anyone who hurts her feeling.
Then I learn from this moment, it’s easy to have many friends, but it’s not easy to keep a friendship which makes it very special. Trust me that “one of the best feelings is discovering that you are still appreciated by someone” ~ ItsThingsInLife 🙂
