Enfiiin....


Dear readers, how are you? I am in France now. I can't tell you precisely how exited i am here. I've been dreaming to come here since i was in senior high school. The wait was seemed like forever, but it's worth the wait. Ok, let me share you about what i'm gonna do here in France.

Three months ago, I assigned for student exchange program in my hometown university, actually there were several choices about the exchange destination, such as Austria, Germany, Netherlands, Scotland. Japan, Singapore and Malaysia. I did not have hard time to choose which university cuz as i told you previously that France already haunted me for years :D

enfiiin....

After being occupied with all the administrative requirements and visa matter, i finally left Indonesia at September 4, 2011. Hmmm, it was stated that the flight would be about 15 hours, including two hours transit in Changi airport, Singapore, but unfortunately, there were some problems with the aircraft which made me stay longer in Changi. I made my touchdown in Charles de Gaulle airport at 11am and after i took a TGV to Lille.



Here, i don't live in Paris, but in Lille, located in the northern part of France. I remembered the first day i arrived here. I was so shocked with the weather. Oh please don't simply blame me. Will you expect the sunshine, rain and wind in a day? Yeaah, that was happened to me, hahahha. Well now i already learn that no matter how sunny outside, you never go wrong by prepare a scarf or umbrella in your bag before leaving your apartment.


Nathalia, Alejandra and me ^^

Talking about apartment, i share a flat with two girls. They were from Colombia and Finland. They were so nice and sweet. I do love them and my flat. Until now, i just can not believe my luck in getting this flat. It's located in the center of the city, i only need to walk (Gosh, please remind me that i have to tell you about the walking culture in Europe) for 10 minutes to get to my university, and the best part is that i got a very good price. You have to see the looks of my friends when they know about my flat :)



The rooms and the kitchen


Well, there are still a lot of things that i wanna share, literally. No worries, i'll be back in a jiffy :D Have a good day for you all...

Lots of love..

Another love lesson

"I finally found the answer and realized that all my suspicion was proven true. Now you remain nothing but coward to me. I made you shine, but you were just too blind"


That was the first cross my mind when I realized all my suspicions. The lies on the small stuffs and the radical changing attitudes. I made you shine, my dear. I transformed your appearance, I upgraded your dignity, I led you to the social oblivion. But I guess you were just too blind to see.


I had no doubt that you just used me as the experience and wait until the right time for simply ditch me. And you did, my dear.


Too bad you did not notice that the D as the beginning of my name is stand from Detective. You won't get away from this my dear. You won't. Sigh, I guess I have to learn the hard way..

Dagelan Malam

Haloooooo, postingan kali ini ini gw mau nge-post pake bahasa. Bukannya kenapa-kenapa, tapi gw cuma ngga mau esensi lucu dari postingan gw ntar jadi berkurang *halah, ngaku aj blm jago bercerita in english.

Well, jadi gini niy, awal gw masuk s2 dulu, gw udah didoktrin dengan anggepan bahwa s2 itu lebih nyantai dari s1. Yang masuknya jarang lah, yang tugasnya sedikit lah, en de bla en de blaaaa. Nah, dasar gw orangnya ngga bisa diem, gw males aj dunkz klo misal kuliah sminggu 2 kali doank trus abis itu gw ngga ad kerjaan alamat gw bakalan mati bosen dilalerin ntar tuh. Sooo, jadilah gw cari-cari kerjaan yang ngga bakalan nyita banyak waktu gw dan bisa nambahin duit jajan. Gw pngen jadi part-timer teacher bahasa inggris, setelah gw jereng tuh koran, akhirnya gw nemuin tuh Realia English, tempat les yang pas bgt buat menuhin kriteria gw, jadwalnya fleksibel, atmosfirnya cozy pisan euy dan staff pengajarnya ramaaaaah bgt.

Ngajar dsana gw slalu kebagian kelas besar yang terdiri dari 6 orang. Nah salah satu kelas yg gw ajar adalah kelas 6 penyamun dari Teknik Perminyakan UPN. Oh yeaaaah, kelas penyamun aka cowok smuaaaa. Sempet bingung sbelum mau nerima niy kelas cuz takut ngga nyambung aj approach gw sama mereka. Hellooo, gw anak Manajemen dan mereka anak Teknik Minyak, errrrr, bagaikan air dengan minyak dah. Tapiii, keraguan gw berubah total. Mreka ngga seperti yang gw bayangkan. Hey, tenang aj, mreka tetep berwujud manusia normal laaah, tapi astagaaa, mereka kocak abis. Setiap kali masuk kelas ada aj guyonan yang sukses ngebikin gw ngakak dan terhibur dikit lah dari tugas-tugas kampus yang ternyata banyak bgt.

Jatah ngajar ini kelas cuma 14 kali pertemuan. Sbenernya dari satu bulan yang lalu, harusnya mereka udh masuk ke pertemuan terakhir alias pertemuan ke 14, tapiiiiii, ada aj alesan dan halangan yang ngebuat kelas terakhir gw bersama para jejaka itu ngga pernah kejadian. Kelas terakhir yang tak kunjung berakhir. *___*
Alesan-alesan klasik anak teknik pun mulai gw hapal dan diem-diem gw bikin list-nya loh *niat*

1. Praktikum
2. Kumpul laporan
3. Kelas malam
4. Ujian
5. Liburan
6. Kangen pacar x__x

Nah, alesan nomor satu itu lah yang paling sering mereka pake buat excuse. Minggu kemaren gw sempet rada bete sama mereka. Mereka bilang mau kelas terakhir jam 6 sore di hari Jumat (gw inget banget cuz pas niy hari ad royal wedding si Will-Kate di tipi, yang gw lewatiiiin - curcol). Dan karena gw pas itu lagi hectic bgt ngurusin seminar di kampus, gw minta mereka buat on time pas ujian dan mereka ngiyain pas gw bbm dan sms. Ya udah dunkz, gw tinggalin aj tuh gladi resik acara seminar gw jam 5 sore, saking buru-burunya gw sampai ngga sempet pamitan sama pacar yang jg ikutan ngurusin seminar. Ya udah, menjelang jam 6 sore gw udh duduk manis di Realia, kelas udah gw siapin, lampu sm kipas angin udh gw nyalain, tinggal nungguin murid-murid istimewa gw nongol aj tuh. Tapiiiii, menit demi menit berlalu *anjis bahasa gw* dan deru motor dan mobil mereka pun masi aj belum kedengeran. Gw liat jam, eh udah setengah 7 aj. Di Realia, klo murid ngga dateng lebih dari 30 menit tanpa pemberitahuan, guru boleh ninggalin muridnya loh. Tapi emang dasarnya gw masi berharap, gw tungguin lah mereka rada lamaan lagi. Jam 6 lewat 40, gw habis sabar, gw bbm mereka ngga dibales, ya udah dey gw balik ke kampus buat ngurusin seminar gw lagi. Selang 10 menit kemudian, hape sm BB gw mulai ribut, ternyata Realia sama murid gw pada ngontakin gw. Yaaa, gw udh kadung di jalan, mau balik males ah. Lagian gw kn ngga salah, gw udh ngikutin SOP 30 menit batas waktu telat. Biar mreka kapok juga ngebatal-batalin kelas mulu *pikir gw waktu itu, berapi-api banget yaaak.

Selasa kmaren ini, akhirnya kelas terakhir mereka jadi juga. Dimulai jam 7 malem. Dan mulai jam sgitu juga gw ngga berhenti ketawa. Jadi karena mereka ambil kelas conversation, maka ujian akhir mereka berupa presentasi gt dey, tipa orang dapet jatah 10-15 menit buat presentasi ditambah sesi tanya jawab.

Nah, murid gw yg pertama, Apry, doi presentasi ttg DRILLING HOLE *____* kbayang ngga siy gmana cengo nya muka gw waktu dngerin materi presentasi yang bener-bener ngga gw kuasai, kosakatanya pun ngga ad di gudang perbendaharaan gw. Makjaaaang. Apalagi pas doi mulai ngegambar bor di kertas. Kyaaaa, apa pula ituuuu *garuk2 tembok.

Presentasi yang kedua dari Daru, nah si Daru ini presentasi tentang AC Milan, darah Milanisti yang menggelegak membuat dia ngga bisa ninggalin Milan barang sejenak, sampai-sampai doi pake buat bahan presentasinya. Oke lah, gw lumayan muden, tapi pas sesi tanya jawab gw mulai kacau pas si Apry dan Siena mulai nanyain tentang sejarah AC Milan, hahahahaha..

Presenter yang ketiga itu namanya Ansi, bocah satu ini presentasi ttg The Role of Money, alias ttg duit-duit gitu dey, gmana sejarah uang, apa kegunaan uang, dan lalalala lainnya. Untung aj pas ngederin tuh presentasi mata ngga berubah jadi ijo.

Abis Ansi, terbitlah Ari. Doi presentasi ttg I-Phone aj dunkz. Serius. Instead of using paper and pictures, dia cukup ngeluarin hengponnya dan mulai utak-atik tuh hengpon di depan kita. Sempet tertarik juga siy sama I-Phone, abisnya aplikasinya jauuh lebih banyak dibanding BB. Tapi yaaa, gw lebih milih BB cuz klo I-Phone itu kan kudu touch-screen dan dasar jari gw jempol smua, stiap nyoba hape touch screen buat ngetik sms pasti salah-salah mulu. Errrr, si Ari sempet nunjukkin permainan seru, enemy apaan gt, jadi dia moto orang kn ya, trus tuh orang mukanya bisa dimacem2in, bisa didandanin kyk bandit gt dan kita serang-serang, tapi lewat hape doank siy. Ehehehehe. Seru jg yak, apalagi klo pas lagi bete, baik sm temen atopun sm pacar *malah curcol.

well, malam semakin larut, dan si Apry dan Ari mulai mnguap dengan gegap gempita, si Daru mulai sibuk ngliatin hapenya di bawah meja. Ngeliat gelagat bakalan dikacangin, gw akhirnya nyuruh Siena buat presentasi, secara tinggal dia doank yang belon presentasi. Nah, setelah terpekur beberapa saat, doi dengan bangganya bilang "tonight i will present about THE HISTORY OF UNGU BAND" ________________ *ceritanya hening lama. Kebisuan kita-kita pun dipecahkan dengan Siena yang dengan hapal presentasi mngenai Ungu Band favorit dia. Gw ngga habis pikir gmana Siena bs hapal album2 punya Ungu Band, dpake di soundtrack pelem apa aja, pokoknya hal-hal yang ngga gw duga sebelumnya dah.

Tibalah saat tanya jawab. Si Siena langsung dibombardir banyak pertanyaan dari temen-temennya, dari pertanyaan Apry yang bikin gw ngakak "Siapakah nama ayah dari vokalis Ungu?, Kalau kmu perempuan kmu mau nikah ngga sama Pasha?" sampai ke permintaan murid-murid gw dan ngga ktinggalan gw jg siy :D yang minta Siena buat nyanyi lagu Ungu buat menunjukkan legalitas dia sbagai fans berat Ungu, daaaaaaan si Siena MAU, dia bahkan milih sndiri lagunya. Soal gaya jangan ditanya, mirip bgt dah kyk Pasha yang asli. Lagu yang dinyanyikan pun ngga cuma satu, tapi dua skaligus. Kita yang liat doi nyanyi udh ngikik-ngikik geli gt dey. Gw bahkan hampir hilang kndali dan ketawa ngakak, tapi ya untungnya gw masi bisa nutupin pake tisu gt dey. Ehehehehe. Tapi bener loh itu lucu bgt, bgt, bgt.

Intinyaaaaa, gw seneng bgt Selasa kmaren. Ternyata mereka emang layak ditunggu. Murid-murid gw emang luar biasa, mereka berbakat menjadi penghibur dan pelawak. Kuliah mereka diTeknik Perminyakan telah membuat mereka menjadi sangat kocak luar biasa ;D
Luv you all, guuuuys..........................

the end of trimester 1






Yaaaay, by reading my title i believe you've noticed that i'm done with all my exams. Yaaaay. Finally those exhausting exams and paper are over. As i mentioned previously in my last post, i take the international program which requires me to conduct everything in english. Even when i write paper. Sigh. But you know, it's so true that the first time always be the hardest. I still remember how confuse i was in writing my Operational Management final paper, which contained 20 pages least. Hahahahaha. But well, hell yeah, it's already passed, i just get down on my knees and starting to pray for the good score.

I will have a week holiday, but hmmm, i simply can not say that it'll be pure holiday. There are lot of things to do. I have been postponed them during my hectic schedule. Eeeew. Several stuff already lining down on my mind, such as:
  • Go to immigration office to apply the passport
  • Complete all the visa documents needed
  • Run the hybrid seminar conducted by my university
  • Back to my routines as a part-timer teacher (i took a week off due to my exams, lol)
  • Spend quality time with my loved one (hey, i deserve it after all the grueling exam time, dont i?)
Since my first trimester was officially end, it means that i have to say goodbye to 8 international students from Europe that already became part of our friends for the previous four months. It was funny seeing their effort to attend the morning class at 7am. Some of them were fell asleep of course, but i was touching enough by seeing them not skip the class. Hehehehehe..

My favorite subject for this trimester was Business Ethics. It was such an insight for me that we have to conduct our business ethically. Well, it might be costly in the beginning but it can create a long term profit for our business *_____* ups, sorry, i better stop now before you choose to quit reading my post :D

I would like to thank my friends, yeaaaaay, we did it. The first trimester finally over. Happy holiday guys, i'll see you again in the next two weeks. And happy Good Friday!!

Finally, A Long Post :D

Hey all, what's you've been up to?
I've been extremely busy recently, but this 2011 so far is excellent for me. I got many priceless gifts that i never thought before. So, in order to payback my hibernate time, i'll explain you in details. It can't be any better, can it? Lol...
It was start with my graduate program. I felt confuse in choosing within the international class or the bilingual class. Mostly my friends chose the bilingual class. Well, actually the difference among those two classes remain only in the way the lesson deliver and the students. In the int'l class, everything is in english, like the books, the presentation, and even the thesis. Nah, the last reason was my biggest consideration in choosing int'l class. But in int'l class you can have int'l friends will allow you to experience the int'l ambiance in the class. And guess, finally i decided to choose the int'l class. My decision was made in the last minute, literally. But so far i do enjoy my choice. My lecturers and my friends are wonderful. I have new friends from Europe, mostly from Netherland and France. I will attach their pics later, no worries :D

Last February, Marlyne, a good friend of mine visited me from Singapore. I was so happy to see her again. We've been friends since senior high school, but now she works in Singapore, so it's kinda difficult to meet her. No wonder when the oppurtunity finally came, it felt like a reunion, because i didn't meet only with Marlyne, but also with Santi and Puspita. We went to Sangam House, a unique Indian restaurant, and discussed many things. We did have a good time there.

Santi, Puspita and Me

Marlyne

Several weeks after, i remembered that i had a voucher given by Marlyne. It was a voucher to shop in Body & Soul. Well, two days before the due date, i went to Body & Soul store and started hunting. Time went by, but still i couldn't find any good outfit *sigh... I was thinking to come back later when finally i saw it, an elegant black dress. I was so thrilled and even couldn't believe it with my very own eyes. So i grabbed it to the fitting room and voila, i bet you know the feel when you see your reflection in the mirror wearing a perfect dress :) I took several pictures in the fitting room, so you perhaps can see the price tag was still there, hehehehehe... Anyway, i also bought hotpants, but i didn't take the picture, i guess the dress pictures already enough :D

Black is my color




Last but not least, in September i will do an exchange program to France. Enfin!! I will be there for 4 months. I chose to do the exchange to SKEMA Business School in Lille. Not only because of the well reputation of SKEMA itself, but also due to my french friends suggestion. Lol. It will be a very priceless experience. I've been dreaming to go to France since i was in the undergraduate. I didn't know why, but France always has some kind of magical spell to me.


je vais aller la, au France. Yaaaaay



Hmmmm, i feel really grateful with all these gifts. Sometimes, good thing will come to you with its special way. I've witnessed it myself. So, i'll see you again later, although i don't know when, since i have tons of works to do. Wish me luck then, and happy weekend all

Just a Lil Sneak Peek of Me


shoes, my perfect guilty pleasure



Can you guess who the birthday boy is?



We might came from different background, but hey, we get along very well. Luv you all


Hi thereeee, how are you? I just finished struggling for my final exam. Have i told you that i take the Master now? I don't know, but i just wanna study something new. Well, my undergraduate background was Politics. I took International Relation, but now i take Management as my Graduate major. At first, i only had a little faith for my choice, and the faith was getting tinnier when i met my classmates. They're totally brainy. Fortunately my lack of confidence happened only in the first week. I kept saying to myself that if i didn't make any move i would be left behind.

Seven subjects, three months and one brain only


How about simpler formula??



I had to join the Matriculation first. Matriculation means you're registered as an official student. It's the process of beginning study at a university, and fulfilling any prerequisites. Sooooo, night after night i forced myself to read all those thick economics book in order to make me at least familiar with economics vocabs. FYI, i had no economics background which just make things harder. And i had to learn how to use the calculator. It was quite funny for me because i just notice several very useful function of calculator. I didn't even imagine it before. Geeeez... Well, briefly, during the first month of my matriculation i found that i couldn't get enough sleep everyday. All i wanted just crawl into the bed and sleep like a baby.

Finally the matriculation is over. And i was surprised that my result wasn't bad as i predicted before. Yeah, now i believe that we have to try our best first, no matter what the result will be. And here i am, gladly to inform you that now i'm officially a graduate student. LOL. Well, my long journey is still waiting. And i've put some pictures about all my dearest mates in this battle field. They're so adorable and helpful. Enjoy and have a nice holiday :)



MBA students batch 56, Yaaaay....

Nail Art, My Guilty Pleasure

Dear readers, my daily routines in office and college, school assignments and homeworks have diverted my mind a lot.. All of them are undoubtly such a time consuming activities in some particular stage. No wonder it quite necessary for me to hunt for nail saloon just to have my nails painted.

Why nail art? Well, it's kinda difficult to explain why i do love nail art. I just love watching a talented person paint and polish my nails. Especially after i see the result, wow, i will easily speechless just to see the transformation of my nails. Yeah, it may sounds so cheesy but that's the truth. How about the compliments i gain after? Nah, that's just another side effect of nail art which i adore ;)
In the last two months, i found a very good nail saloon in my hometown which satisfy my wildest fantasy of nail art designs instead. I took some pictures of the result just for you peeps.



Actually there's still many designs which i do wanna apply. But, i'm taking my master now, so i guess i better choose the safe designs. No worries, if there's any special occasion coming, i would be gladly to try those wonderful designs.




I started to treat my nails since 4 years ago. At that time, i was really like frech manicure nail designs. Well, i still fall for this style actually. We have to admit that french manicure is the most timeless style that you can apply anytime without having fingernails faux pas. For those who really into this style, no need to worries because now there are many variations of the French Manicure itself.

French Manicure, classy and elegant




see the variations of French Manicure

My adventure of nail art world began about one year ago. Yes, i'm still a newbie here. I notice that nail art has to be in fashion. If you like challenge yourself and do trials for new trends, this will be a very joyful chance for you. You will be able to play with color, discover new unique pattern and even put on some 3D effect onto our nails. Wow. We can say that nail art is the ultimate fashion when it comes to manicure.


The main obstacles of nail art are the shape and length of your fingernails. Some patterns might seen not too good in short nails. I have long (average) and squares nails naturally. I don't know is it just me, or some of you have the same thought, that the popular rounded nails just not fit in me *sigh*

And oh, i don't recommend nail art for those who still like bitting the nails. Yeah, the fancy investment that you did for your nails would be just worthless then. But hey, if you want to take the chance of tasting nail polish in order to stop your nail-bitting habit, why not? We all know the there's no invention of tasty nail polish. Lol..

So, are you ready to do some nails experiment? Just try and share with me about the result. I'll see you in a jiffy...... (hope so)
