Girls Hunting Day Out

Taken by Mom

It is been a while I am not posting, kinda lost the mood lately.
Well actually im not losing the mood to blog but last week I was having a long FLU
It was terrible, I couldnt hang out with my girls and all I wanna do was sleeping sleeping and eating. However, at least last terrible week was ended with girls hunting day out with my mom (who will be so happy if i call her a girl) and also my little sis @ Galaxy Mall.
Actually lately Surabaya has been so hot, but wisely thinking Ive just recovered from FLU so I decided to wear "more" clothes. I chose my custom-made thin blazer, over sized tee and my lovely leopard print legging. For the shoes, since my girls will do some long hunting then I decided to wear comfi flats.
For my hairstyle, usually I love big wavy hair and I can get it by rolling my hair, but I was just not in the mood to roll my hair and did some make-up. Tied-up my hair and pull my bangs was my only option, well surprisingly I love it! I felt totally like a guy! haha

I begun my hunting days out by filling up our stomach @ Dome Cafe, Galaxy Mall. Three of us ordered Dome Caesar Salad, Smoked-Beef Cream Spaghetti, Mushroom Spaghetti and BBQ Chicken Pizza. Well none of us was quite full with those 4 menus for 3, hahaha...Limanto's blood are totally greedy.
Well we were hunting for our awaited Christmas' exchanging gift with my big family *so excited
it was quite though since we have to find unisex gift which is worth 50.000 rupiahs.
I wont tell you whats the gift we bought since im sure my sis will read my post, haha *no offense

my new mission!

is just as simple as making a delicious Christmas cookies....

"White Chocolate Macadamia Cookies"

crunchy, sweet and salty….....

Don't waste money on the expensive commercial version of this cookies.
Make your own at home. Cheaper and more delicious!

All you need to prepare:

• 3/4 cup salted butter (1 1/2 sticks)
• 1/2 cup granulated white sugar
• 1 cup light brown sugar (lightly packed)
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 2 large eggs
• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup white chocolate chips
• 2 cups roasted, salted macadamia nuts (chopped)

In small bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt.

In large bowl, with mixer at medium speed, beat butter and brown and granulated sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla until well combined. Reduce speed to low; beat in flour mixture just until blended. With wooden spoon, stir in white chocolate baking chips and macadamia nuts.

Drop dough by rounded tablespoons, 2 inches apart, on two ungreased cookie sheets. Bake until golden around edges, 10 to 12 minutes, rotating cookie sheets between upper and lower oven racks halfway through baking. With wide spatula, transfer cookies to wire racks to cool completely.

tataaaa......

sneak peak

Big thanks to Mr. Sutanto Harsono as the photographer of these shots!
I love his simplicity and classic style!!
Thanks to his patience to find my perfect angle (which is very hard *sigh)

Not to forget my bf who arranged me the pose to look serious even though in the end i was laughing out loud instead of posing serious, LOL

From yesterday photo shoots @ Mr. Sutanto Harsono, I've learnt so much about photography from lighting arrangement and find the perfect angle from a model (which is I'm not at all) and last but not least how to get instant sexy hair styling, LOL
Finally after 2 hours, we completed approx 300 shots *sigh (i don't knw how many looks good, we'll see *cross finger)
Well, when becoming the model, the most important thing is relax, enjoy and knw what ure doing
At first, I was very tense (well it's my first time) but after a while i feel quite relax, there are so many great shots taken!

I definitely would love to do it again some other time!

The rest of the shots will be updated later on!
These are the sneak peak....

"SAY CHEESE!"

Burn your FAT, girls!

Eva Longoria in BEBE Sport Campaign

Exercise Facts! Exercise! Exercise! This is what we are told every day on television, books, and magazines. It is wonderful for our health. However, some people need a bit more nudging to get the ball rolling. If you are one of these people, here are 10 reasons to begin exercising today.

Exercise and Energy Level
Studies have shown that if you exercise every day, you will increase your energy level. As-a-matter of fact, those that exercise feel lethargic and tired on days they skip a work-out routine.

Exercise and Strong Bones
As we get older, our bones tend to become more brittle. However, exercising and putting consistent pressure on your bones can help to make them stronger. Women who regularly exercise throughout their life have less problems with osteoporosis.

Exercise Improves Self Image
Although we would like to not believe it, body image is connected to self image. If we don't like our body, we won't have a positive self image. Exercising helps to improve that self image along with body image.

Exercising and Sleeping
As long as you exercise two hours before bed, exercise can improve the quality of your sleep. If you have a problem with insomnia, try beginning a morning exercise routine.

Exercising and Socializing
Exercising is a great way to meet and get together with friends. If you go to a gym you will meet people that have similar priorities as your own. If you exercise with a work-out buddy, this time is great to talk and catch up on your lives.

Exercise and Depression
Exercising releases endorphins into the body that help fight depression. The more you exercise, the less depressed you will be.

Exercising and Weight
If you are overweight, exercising is one of the best ways to lose. The more calories you burn when you exercise, the more fat you will lose. It is simple physics. Muscle burns more calories than fat. This means that the more you exercise, the more muscle you add to your body. The more muscle you have, the more calories you will burn doing nothing at all.

Exercise and Sex
Exercise has been shown to be a great aphrodisiac. There are many people who believe massages and soft music awaken sexuality, but exercise actually does a better job. The more you exercise, the more active you will feel. The more active you feel, the more you will feel like having sex.

Exercise and the Heart
Exercising not only works your muscles, but also your heart. Your heart is the most important muscle/organ you have. It is what keeps you alive. The more you exercise your heart, the less risk you have for a heart attack or stroke.

Exercise and Immune System
People who regularly exercise have a better chance of fighting off illnesses and infections than those that are sedentary. Exercise has actually been shown to boost the immune system.

These are ten more reasons to begin a regular exercise routine today. The more you do for your body today, the more it will do for you in the future.

This morning is my very first exercise for the last 2 months maybe, YAIY FINALLY!
My mom and I realized that we (as a woman who LOVE to eat) have to BURN our Excessive FAT as soon as possible.
Fortunately, there is sport center nearby my new house, so we decided to join the Body Language Class ( I adopt "Beyonce curve" mindset, so it is more important for me to have a dense curvy shape rather than being skinny with no curve)

To be honest with you, IT WAS LIKE HELL of HELL
I was so VERY VERY Exhausted, because its been a very long time i don't do any exercise, so I was being so very easy to feel tired.
FYI my instructor even told me to do 500 sit-up (Usher do 1000 sit-up, well if it is being compared with Usher i should've do sit-up at least errr 50??!)

HOWEVER, after having the exercise :
I feel much much BETTER about myself, it is about my confidence and self-image. I truly believe that actually health is coming from inner to outer.
So you have to feel what I feel, wake up lazy ass and burn your fat and be fabulous!!

-BEAUTY HURTS dears-

Oh Please ?!!

Talking about "Killer Shoes", one of them are definitely the genius Rodarte.
Well I love Rodarte as well as Victoria Beckham loves it too
They're stunning, dark and so edgy. It hits the market so well!!

It looks like other designers are trying to create their own "killer shoes"
And these are two of them....


*ouch I can feel the pain in my foot
are those "killer shoes" or "suicide shoes"????? ok, where they put the heels? are they transparent????
i never agree with these shoes, i think one of the most important element of shoes is comfortability, and definitely they don't have it..
Yes, i know i haven't try them on my feet but i guess you all agree with me *nod nod nod

Daphne Guinness in killer Nina Ricci shoes

Here is the fabulous Daphne Guinness in one of those "suicide shoes"
I think I can read her lips and mind:
"Oke, first step,,,, second step,,,,, I can do this, hang on Daphne, third step.......... Oh Gees Nina,,,,,,,,,, Thank God I already have my $100,000 foot insurance"

Have a great day darlings!

Too Cute to Wear

Classy Lingerie

Flirty Lingerie

Seductive Lingerie

Bitchy Lingerie

Luxurious Lingerie

Cute Lingerie

Playful Lingerie

Naughty Lingerie

Elegant Lingerie

Innocent Lingerie

At first, the purpose of "ancient" ppl created underwear was to cover certain parts of human bodies.
However, that purpose is kinda shifting nowadays into more fashion purpose which ppl now called LINGERIE (for western culture, of course)
Look at how WonderBra, Pleasure Principle, LaSenza, Victoria's Secret, Ultimo, Woman's Secret, Agent Provocateur design their lingerie as if ppl just have to wear their pieces without other outter clothes (Well, can they even find outter clothes which are cuter than those lingerie pieces??!! Those absolutely pieces that were created not to be hiden LOL *agree)
I really love those pieces! (maybe it will be useful for those who already married) They are sexy, flirty, cute, sweet and adorable!

Guess i'll be waiting for my princecharming to put a ring on me *wink

Mrs. Headband!

From Casual to Glam, it fits her well...
Hope she can be our inspiration, it's very rare to see Indonesian ppl wear it

Don't be afraid to express yourself!

Mulut Ember : PROMOSI!!

This is the seminar which me and bf arrange!
Come and join us!
*i'm quite proud with my design, HAHA

Never stop learning guys!

Asking too much?

My previous manager in BII has just called me said that she wants me to work in BII
well at first i felt so excited about it since i'm still jobless (i'm afraid if i continue this jobless status it will bring me to the comfort zone) and i still don't know what kind of job she will offer me
However, after I asked her whats the position of the job offering, she said it will be "sales executive" Oh no not again...
FYI, i used to take an internship there as with the same position and i didn't enjoy every second of it at all...
It is the second time i have been offered this job in BII and i started to think that am i asking too much for my job???

I think that i really don't want to do things that make me stress or i didn't enjoy at all
As the sales executives, it's all about target, overtime, being scolded by customer, handling "naughthy" customer, talking talking talking ( i was well-known as a girl who adopt "silence is golden" term in my high school)
The last time i became the sales executive i felt that i was already bugging my family too much, they already helped me alot to achieve my target by saving there..I just don't like that feeling at all.......
On the other side, i really want to work as soon as posible, i don't want to keep on relying on my dad's money, I love my dad and he's getting old....
Am i asking too much?????

Poor you Brad!
