Pay now, gain later!

It's felt so long.. since last time I had fun. My mind is fully occupied with things right now. Lots of things to do, exam, paper, project (if you don't mind, please check @pohonkuhidupku on instagram), dateline, goals and target. I really don't mind working hard like this. I even feel uneasy and guilty for having spare time and doing nothing.
And I really need books to kill the spare time. Not just an ordinary book. Biography book of great people which can motivate me to do more.
I've been here before and I know I will nailed it too this time. Though I barely have time for socializing :( sorry for people I've abandoned.
Don't get me wrong. I love being busy because I believe hard work will be paid off someday. But I missed a lot of movies :'( and since I have no more link for free-movie-streaming just makin' it a lot worse.

Happy 6th year anniversary to my blog!

Here goes nothing..



Familiar with those faces? I've been watching this Fashion Blogger show on TV cable and immediately fall for Zanita Whittington's photoworks which I truly adore (and I personally love her hair). I'm amazed with how talented she is and the big opportunities she had. Let's see some of her work here @zanitaphotography or http://zanita.com/portfolio and her profile @zanitazanita.






The TV show had 5 fashion blogger and all of them are awesome. My second idol is Sara Donaldson (don't you think she's photogenic). You can check her artsy web here http://www.birdyandme.com.au. Most of her pictures were taken by Zanita.




My point is.. I envy them >.< so much. Sometimes I wish I had white skin and blue eyes, literally. Inspired, you may say. Makes me want to do beauty and fashion photoshoot again. Photography is one of my passion afterall.

Inside Me Out

Eh iya..
Lagi kepengen banget nulis blog walau sedang dalam keadaan jari telunjuk sakit gegara daging dalam kuku nya gue congkel-congkel, gue kobek-kobek pakai jarum pentul. Perih yang terasa setiap kali jari gue nyentuh keyboard itu.. mayan nyiksa sih tapi.. well, let's call me a masochist. It's a bit awkward typing without my index finger though.

(Ngomong-ngomong soal index finger, gue banyak nemuin penggunaan kata benda ini di buku Fifty Shades of Grey. Awalnya gue mengira ini jari tengah ya which proved to be wrong. Jadi visualisasi gue salah besar donk ya pas baca bukunya.)

Lagi aware banget sama Inside Out yang mayan happening ini. Disaat semua orang berlomba-lomba ngepost di social media emosi mana yang paling mewakili diri mereka, akhirnya gue jadi ikutan kepikiran donk. Liat kan Joy itu mimpin di otak Riley, kalau di otak si ibu yang mimpin itu Sadness dan di otak si bapak yang mimpin Anger. Dengan cepatnya gue bisa jawab sih dalam otak gue yang mimpin, yaitu Fear.

Why Fear?
This is hard to admit but yes, my mind is full of fearful thoughts.

Takut ambil resiko, takut mencoba hal baru, takut keluar dari zona aman, takut ngomong ini, takut berbuat itu, selaluuu aja self-doubt nya yang menang. Dengan kata lain, negative thinking ya. Tapi bagus nya sih uda mendingan & ga separah dulu ya. Sekarang selalu mencoba menjadi positive, walau dalam beberapa kesempatan tetap negative nya dulu yang nongol. Sometimes I wonder, kalau aja Fear is not part of me, what will become of me? What happened with all the chances I take? Would it lead me to a better future or not? Was it right decision to take the opportunities? There goes what if what if..

Ini ga berlaku kalau gue lagi yakin banget sama diri gue sendiri sih. Dibilang nekat iya. Untungnya sih masih dapat berkat dan bimbingan Tuhan. Alhamdulilah, walau terkesan ambil keputusan pakai emosi dan dalam keadaan terdesak, selaluuu aja diberi jalan dan pintu terbuka ya. Tuhanku luar biasa memang :)

Ada yang Disgust kah? :D

Meeting ANDREA HIRATA for real !!

Beginner's luck? I don't think so..
It's our destiny!!

Near Kampoeng Ahok is MUSEUM KATA ANDREA HIRATA and yeah, they're having an event when we got there and a chance to meet the person behind the massive Laskar Pelangi himself!

Voila, I even shook his hands and Hera got a peck lol.. We're even been introduced to the casts of the movie but we can't recognized them since none of us watched the movie yet HAHA..















I adore Andrea Hirata personally somehow from his writings and how we (well, I think every artist) have the same taste and feelings towards arts. I'm proud of him for not only making himself famous but also his hometown that got to be known by foreign country as well.

I know what I did last summer in Belitung



Manggar in Belitung Timur is a well-known place for Ahok residence (psstt.. his house is 2 hectare and the price of 3 hectare house in Belitung is only Rp 80.000.000 !!). So here we go, please set up the red carpet for us, sir!








PANTAI NYIUR MELAMBAI





PANTAI SERDANG





SD LASKAR PELANGI (DUMMY)
You've got to pay to come here for Rp 3.000/person (if I don't get wrong hehe)



Can't Get Over You, Belitung!


Sorry for not wearing the snorkel mask properly ;p

It's island-hopping time!
Rent a boat for Rp 500.000 and you can go wherever you want, do whatever you want, as long as you want.. The route is Pantai Tanjung Kelayang - Pantai Pasir - Pantai Batu Berlayar - Pulau Lengkuas.
Tips :
- bring some bread to feed the fish
- wear dress for perfect summer photos












Belitung I'm in L.O.V.E !!


Me miss y'all fellasss..

Finally I'm back with holiday post. 
It was began with the six of us. Apparently, only us three that made it here til the end and that's okay!

For y'all whom didn't know Belitung island, it is well-known by the movie Laskar Pelangi and also the hometown of the famous Governor Ahok. The beauty? Undeniable! Green trees everywhere you go, laid-back quiet road, the heaven-like beach.. Curious? Here I present y'all the gifts from our trip!

♥ Pantai Tanjung Tinggi
This is the first spot we went to from our landing. It is simply beautiful and had all the beauty of Belitung type of beach. Full of big rocks and silky smooth sand. Yeah, it was kinda cloudy that time and it kinda affect our mood.



♥ Bukit Berahu
The highlight here? Definitely this! U+2193.svg





♥ Danau Kaolin
Kawah Putih in Bandung look-alike? Agree! Though, I think this one is prettier.



♥ Cycling around
Worth a try! Wake up at 7 and went out cycling (rent at hotel for Rp 40.000/bike/4hours) to have breakfast then visit the town beach is a must for workout.
