Dummy Dumby

Thanks god it's Friday! So, I can write something on my blog. Because in weekdays, as you know..  I'm a 'lil bit busy dizzy in Esmod Jakarta. And now, I'm home! But, unfortunately this Friday no one pick me up, so I must facing the traffic jam of Jakarta all alone and catch up the bus. *okay sorry for the grievance

This is my current fave tote bag :p Get lucky! such a nice word to encourage me and people who see it *hope so* I prefer the nice shout out than the bad one. I bought it in WATCHOURWORDS by the way.. And sorry I often wore the stripes look lately :p 

Ehemm, can I show up a little bit about my late project?

can I?

can I?

can I?

pleaseeee... *wink wink 

yeay thank you :D

Voilà! My box pleats skirt *big grin* 

Actually it's far away from the perfectness but... this is my very first thing I made so I overwhelmed with excitement! And now, we're making a top project.. It's much harder than before, the pattern is quite difficult but we can handle it anyway

CIAO!

Goes to DREAM

Hiatus for about two weeks (should it called hiatus?) because a current yet full of excitement in esmod. I have pattern design class at 1 PM from Monday to Friday , but it's like I have a class in a whole day. Quite tiring but still exciting. Actually, it's a little bit difficult. You know, counting, cutting, playing with rules...
At the first day, 21th April 2014, I went to esmod at 7 am and arrived at 10 am, damn Jakarta! it has terribly traffic jam. Then I had class at 1 PM until 4 PM and I arrived at home at 9 PM. So, I studied for 3 hours only and I wasted my time (almost 8 hours) on the way. After that I had to make my homework until 1 AM. HOSH! I will die in the end of the course.
Then, Momma let me to rent a dorm near esmod with my cousin who is student in ESMOD. I share a room with her. Thanks god, I don't have to against the traffic jam, pollution, and the hot Jakarta.
But actually living in here is quite expensive. Okay, maybe I live in a village for a long time --FYI, my campus, UNPAD located in Jatinangor, Sumedang-- where everything is cheap. Moreover, esmod  "steal* all my money *cry*. Even I don't have to pay the admission fee due to a scholarship for Ria Miranda

Ohh, ignore my gripe, please.. But, all the lesson in class given by my teacher Miss Gia is useful and quick. Miss Gia makes us "run". So we have something much after the course. And esmod has a great great greaaaaaaaaaaaaaat library. I love it shooo muchoo! I visit it before class started. It has just three book shelf, but it contains with brilliants books. All about fashion for sure.

 Do some selfies photos is not a sin though :p Selfie photo is a current trend since hollywood actors and actress did it in Oscar.Hmm, but I think everybody did self-centered photo like this since they have their first phone with camera or a camera. I don't know why it's called a new trend meanwhile we did it since a long time ago.. Sometimes is okay to be selfish! We need me time, no?

HGM GIVEAWAY

Who doesn't want this babe? Oh My God, I've been craving for it for a long time. As a new comer in fashion blogging's world, I need a make up kit for sure. 

But what I have here? I just have an eyeliner and a pink lipstick. No more makeup. I'm a pale fashion blogger ever! Ewwh! 

Actually I can't do make up well, but I told you that I'm a fast learner. I could coloring my face as well as a makeup artist *Okay, I'm just kidding here* So, I want this since naked launch their product, but it's too expensive for me :( 

So, that's why my heart beats faster when one of my fave Indonesian fashion blogger Cindy Karmoko's offer Naked 3 as her birthday giveaway. You can check it here HGM Birthday Giveaway

She always makes a cool giveaway, her gifts are always mesmerizing. Make me always joined every giveaway she made. Million times I joined her cool giveaways, but I got any of them. Null. Pity!

But I really hope I could get this one little darling.

Naked 3 would be perfect for coloring my face, complete my outfit everyday, and my blog for sure. I want to be as big as her, be a fashion blogger and a fashion designer too. What a dream!

Happy birthday for a talented fashion blogger Cindy Karmoko

Wish you a blessing birthday. Bright future as bright as your fierce hair! 

ESMOD's euphoria

I've listed Friday, 4th April 2014 as one of my best day. Well, I just got back from campus that day (which held in 07:30 until 09:10) too early for study, no? Moreover, I just slept for 3 hours. Due to slept less, I decided to get some sleep again after class. When my eyes were about to close, my phone rang. And it was from Jakarta, I wonder if it was from..

Lady : "Hello, is this Fanny speaking?"
Me    : "Yup"
Lady  : "we're from Ria Miranda, calling you to inform that you're the one of the lucky girl who receive the free short course in ESMOD"

--OMG, my heart was skip a beat. My sleepiness vanish in a second--

Me : "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTT??? WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" Oh god, I was extremely excited hear that great news.

And then, the lady explain about the program, and my chance to have an internship in their clothing line but I was overwhelm with excitement and didn't hear her explanation carefully. I ended up the phone by yelling-out-loud and made the lady giggling.

My friends around me were exciting too, but they tried to avoid me because I kept yell and hit on them because I was over excited.

Study fashion is my big dream! BIG BIG DREAM!!!!!! *sorry I have to give a point here, because this is an important thing for me* that's the reason why I made this blog too, because my friends gave me an advice if I want to apply a fashion school in France, I should have some relation into fashion as a point plus to be accepted at their campus . For example, I made my own clothing line or have a fashion blog. And I decided make something simpler, I did fashion blogging by then. Yes!  I dream about study fashion design in French, why French? because I want to explore my french's  ability there, that'll make all I've studied before worth it (FYI, Now Imma french literature student in UNPAD), the second reason: it's a fabulous country where fashion is one of their landmark, the last reason;  it's a country where people have their freedom to express themself (I mean in fashion thing) and the air and the garden are tempting me to have my lunch, read a book even study something there

 But, fashion design school is not that cheap, even less I want to study in Europe --which means I need more money for my living cost, that cost 10 times more expensive than here in Indonesia. Maybe I can't afford it, but I keep driving myself crazy by keep dreaming of it. I just want to focus on what I'm dreaming of, maybe I'm an idiotic irrational, but who care and who know my future :)

I joined a competition to win a free short course in ESMOD by Riamiranda by an information of my junior in campus. I have to sent an essay titled “How Fashion Can Change Your Life and Your Circles”, a CV, and some sketches which would make you have more point, and a coupon in Ria Miranda's book called Passhion.

And god is showing his/her/it's pomp lately--sorry, there's no gender on my god--. Two days before the announcement, I cried and tell god all my misery, and after that, Allah wipe my tears replacing with the great opportunity like this. Allah just caress me gently. 

Maybe you think that I'm too much, but, It's what I felt right now. God is too good.

Boring audition

Been so lazy to write my blog up lately. So that's why, these photos are a little bit "expired". I think they were taken about 3-4 week ago, when I accompany my friend have an audition for being a new radio's announcer in a radio based in Bandung. Sorry readers ..

I applied for this job too before with Yurico and Edo, but me and Yurico weren't called to take a further audition's steps, it means, we weren't accepted. Pity us haha. But, Edo make it!! So happy and we decided to accompany him in his audition's day.

So, here we were, waiting waiting waiting from 10AM until 6PM. However, Edo is the most tired guy that day (or maybe me?) Because I jumped here and there, yelled, sang many song, had some photo session, played basketball, disturbed my friends and attired all the people's attention by what I was did. When all my friends lose their "batteries" I still have a bunch of batteries on my body. I was too attractive when I have to wait, when I got bored, so that's why I did it hehe. Even, Edo wanted to quit the audition which had 6 steps and he has just one more step to go, but we keep encourage him to make it until it done.

Another reason, that's Edo wanted to quit in the last minute is there was so many contestant has a relation with the radio's employee but Edo. It's kinda cheating, no? Most of the contestant said "I'm the friends of X or Y or Z etc". And I saw that they weren't professional, in timing and in attitude. Imagine, there was a judge asked my friend if he has make in love before, if he's smoke, if he went to club. The questions were fu*king stupid, they just want to show that they were "nowadays guys". Sorry, but I just wanna say, the radio is not cool at all. 

Voila, borrow Yurico's vest hihihi

This is the guy, Yurico!

SELINA!! she's my photographer,! She can direct the way I pose and shot me up greatly. "Fanny, don't put your legs like that it awful! put it like this!" "Fan, hold your breath to get a flat stomach" "Fan, bla bla bla.." Yap, she's a perfect photographer for me, remembering that I'm not good enough for take a pose, and she know me best. Thanks a lot my best :)

no more holiday no more

The holiday is over.. I can say "FINALLY!!" Because I did nothing during the holiday which means 1 whole month in a boredom . Sleep-Eat-Watch TV. Just it. But sometimes, my friends and cousins picked me up to hanging out. But it happens rarely :( Because, you know, there's so much disaster came up lately to my country, such as flood and mountain's eruption, especially the flood, because it happened in my region, and my house is one of the victim. The other reason I didn't enjoy my long holiday is the "broken promises". Before holiday, I swear to myself to did a progress in my life such as diet and do my thesis. But I broke it all. I did the exercise (zumba) twice a day and diet before, I did that just in the first week. Appreciable! I got 2 kg fat loss in a week, but then my cousin came up and treat me with the food. I can't refuse, because she came from Bangka--far away from my house--, which means I have to treat her back well, I didn't want to upset her up (excuse excuse excuse :P) FYI, my first data for thesis is a french roman, and I doesn't finish to read it yet.  So, 1 month full without any useful activity.

So I have to thank god that holiday is over, that I can gather again with friends in my neverland (Jatinangor, town where I study) I just excited to meet them up! 

My friend invited me to be a radio's announcer. I didn't really want to, but I joined the audition just for did something after did nothing. And one of the requirement to be a radio announcer is doing outfit of the day's photo.. And here I am with my #OOTD 

Hat - Forever 21

It was quite a hectic day when we applied the job vacancy. We had to took the selfie and OOTD's photos, made a sample voice, made a creative CV, printed it out and went to Bandung to gave them all to the radio's office. Maybe it wouldn't be that hectic if we didn't do it in a last minute and we could took a bath quickly without any arguing. Because the boys (and me) love arguing to choose the "victim" the first guy to take a bath. Shoooo, it was such a retard, hectic day, I would say a POOP DAY!! 

pardon my poopsie face :p

Here the poop guys! HATE AND LOVE, I don't know how to describe them.. Full of shit, but I love them too much

Jardin Du Luxembourg

Here I am with a little piece from Paris. So here the story began, I went to France in the last summer (2013) for 40 days and for (almost) free haha! What a lucky girl I am! It can be free because I joined Lions Clubs. All the expenses are free (eat, sleep, visit, etc) except the plane's ticket only. If you are young, you have to have a such experience like me, I guarantee you, it would be your unforgettable moment! They would guide you to the touristic, historic and famous places and explain that place to you like a guide but for free, we gather with people around the world, exchange the culture, have fun, have a party, have tasty meals and gain the knowledge for sure. Now, I have a new family, a new sister, brother, mother and father, they just lovely and I miss them right now. And the best thing I got from this club is I love my country more than before because I just consider how rich Indonesia much more than another country, I mean I know it before but, I understand that quote more and much more when I gathered with people around the world, you'll see and you'll be so proud of it :)
However, Lions clubs just rawwkk!! they gave us much, too much. A month in France for free? oh my god, I was in a great phase in life. Thanks Lions Club, especially to my centre, CIFC!! the best centre in lions club woohoo

And these photos are taken in Jardin du Luxembourg, Paris before we went to Bretagne (near England). Actually, I used my free time to taken all of these photos, when we have our lunch at this park, okay you can call it picnic. French people loves to do picnic and hang out in park, and I love it too!! Eat your lunch outdoor in the lovely weather? Who doesn't love it? And thanks god we had picnic much :p
