LOVE@RTH Water Color Exhibition 2015

Pameran kedua dalam bulan ini. Saya datang tentunya pada hari yang sama dengan saat saya berkunjung ke JavaScript, pameran art yang disangkutpautkan dengan aksara Jawa. Silakan cek post sebelumnya disini.

Anyway, pameran kali ini adalah LOVE@RTH Water Color Exhibition Pameran ini ditampung oleh 2 gedung di Galeri Nasional Indonesia (gedung B dan C), 3-14 September. Tema LOVE@RTH diartikan sebagai Love Earth Through Art yang acaranya diadakan oleh komunitas International Watercolor Society Indonesia.

Bu Lydia Saputra (64); Bu Trini Taslim (67); Bu Renny Ris (58), sayangnya saya lupa foto karya-karyanya! 

Pada saat saya datang ke gedung C, terlihat ada anggota dari komunitas IWS Indonesia sedang melukis lho guys! Awalnya gue bingung karena, "Ini kan galeri, kok ngelukis di sini sih?" Tapi ya setelah saya tahu kalau itu adalah anggota dari IWS Indonesia, gue maklum, dan akhirnya menonton Ibu dan Bapak yang lagi seru-serunya melukis.

Sebelum pulang, saya dan teman-teman juga sempat bertanya ke pelukis-pelukis dari IWS, tentunya tentang watercolor. Ibu yang kami wawancarai dengan ramahnya menjelaskan, yang mana saja karyanya dan apa saja teknik yang bisa dipakai dalam watercolor. Kata ibu-ibu pelukis di sana, ada teknik yang memakai bumbu dapur contohnya garam, yang bisa memberi tekstur titik-titik. Ada juga yang pakai plastik. Ibu yang menjelaskan hal ini, yaitu Ibu Trini Taslim, belajar water color selama 7 tahun dan ikut dalam komunitas IWS sehingga dapat memasukkan karyanya ke exhibition ini.

starring Devina! (Waiting by Galuh Taji Malela from Indonesia) Karya super realis, detilnya luar biasa. :')

Art Now II by M. Fadhil Abdi from Indonesia. 

E@rth Wind Fire (Tripthyc) by Maya W.Suharnoko from Indonesia 

Kalau karya yang ini eye catching menurut saya, dikarenakan oleh permainan warna. Warna-warna yang digabungkan sama sekali ga sama, dan feelnya berbeda. Tapi, ini yang bikin karyanya unik dan eye catching. Meskipun warnanya berbeda kontras, tapi terlihat ada kesinambungannya. Dan lagi, pelukis nggak menambahkan hal-hal yang terlalu berlebihan dikarenakan warnanya sudah sangat 'keluar'. Simple, tapi dashyat.

Sav@ Indonesia-Sav@ Makassar by Karta Jayadi from Indonesia

Ocean Series II by Widiyatno from Indonesia

Dua gambar di atas hanya memakai satu warna dominan. Itu yang membuat saya suka. Meskipun satu warna, tapi terlihat kok hal apa yang mau ditampilkan. Seperti Ocean Series II yang dibuat oleh Bapak Widiyatno, sangat menonjolkan warna biru dan mata itu sendiri. Beliau juga menambahkan beberapa unsur garis dan titik di dalamnya.

Setelah ke sini saya jadi lebih membuka mata tentang karya. Karena emang dari dulu belum pernah terlalu care and open sama karya-karya seperti ini. Saya dan teman-teman juga lebih belajar tentang yang namanya watercolor dan penasaran ingin coba beberapa teknik bumbu dapur yang telah diberitahu sama pelukis-pelukisnya.

Benar, dalam sebuah trip, kita harus jadi orang yang terbuka, penasaran, dan bertanya.

Sayangnya, pameran ini sudah selesai! Padahal ada banyak sekali hal-hal yang belum saya jelaskan satu persatu. (karena banyak juga ya guys karyanya). Karya-karya di exhibition ini bukan hanya dari Indonesia namun juga berbagai negara lainnya. Jadi bukan hanya karya lokal saja, lho! Pasti banyak inspirasi yang bisa kalian dapat dari mendatangi karya ini.

Pameran ini akan berlanjut, tapi sayangnya bukan di Jakarta, tapi di Bentara Budaya Bali 24 Oktober - 2 November 2015. Mungkin yang tinggal di Bali bisa mampir dan melihat karya-karya fantastisnya!

JavaScript book.Worth 20k only!

Sabtu lalu. 12 Agustus 2015, saya dan teman-teman pergi ke Galeri Nasional Indonesia untuk melihat langsung artwork dari Eddy Susanto,terutama karya Soekarno dan Kartini yang dibuat dari potongan-potongan kata. Jujur saja guys, awalnya untuk mendapat nilai bonus hehe. Tapi benar deh, karya Soekarno dan Kartini itu sudah booming di media sosial (sebut merk: instagram) dan dipost juga oleh akun-akun typography terkenal di instagram.

 It is actually my first time coming there and I was pretty excited!

Saat datang, pertama saya harus terlebih dahulu menitipkan tas dan barang-barang lainnya, dikarenakan untuk menjaga karya-karya yang ada.

Pameran ini berjudul JavaScript yang semua karyanya dibuat oleh satu orang, sang artist Eddy Susanto. JavaScript menggambil tema aksara Jawa. Saya yang awalnya memang kurang mengetahui tentang artist-artist yang terkenal di Indonesia jadi tahu satu orang ini dan karya-karyanya yang sangat autentik dengan bertemakan Bahasa Jawa. Karyanya ini banyak yang dibuat dari tahun 2014 sampai dengan tahun ini.

Pengantar dari Eddy Susanto.

Kartini; Soekarno; Pramoedya

Look at the details. Favorit!

Ini dia karya yang saya bilang booming. Bayangin karya diatas dibuat dari potongan-potongan huruf yang kemudian disusun satu-satu oleh Eddy Susanto sendiri. Bangga juga bisa melihat karya ini dari dekat dan ngeliat detil-detil hurufnya. Juga meskipun dibuat dari potongan huruf, masih saja mirip dengan sang tokoh. Perlu diketahui sama kalian, bahwa ketiga tokoh ini lahir di Jawa (yang sesuai sama temanya JavaScript) dan merupakan tokoh-tokoh terkenal. Buat yang nggak tahu, siapa sih tokoh yang berkacamata? Beliau itu  Pramoedya Ananta Toer sebagai tokoh sastra. Karya ini berjudul Defining The Nation yang dibuat dengan cat akrilik.


Saya saat itu juga tertarik dengan kalender Jawa yang bernama Pawukon. "Kalender ini memadukan sistem penanggalan Islam, Hindu, dan juga Julian yang identik dengan Gregorian" (diambil dari buku JavaScript). Pada waktu saya melihat kalender ini, saya mencoba untuk mencocokkannya dengan tanggal lahir saya. Ingin lihat, bener nggak sih? Tentu dibantu oleh orang dari sana, ternyata benar! Saya lahir 8 Juni 1997, tepatnya hari Minggu, dan di kalender tersebut muncul hari Minggu Wage. Saya merasa sangat amazed, suka banget!

Kalender Jawa.

Bukan hanya itu, Eddy Susanto juga membuat illustrasi/illuminasi dari banyak website seperti Google, Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, dan juga site-site dari China atau US lainnya seperti Baidu dan Amazon. Illuminasi ini dibuat sesuai dengan ciri khas masing-masing website dan diisi pula dengan aksara Jawa. Yang saya suka adalah, karya ini mencampur trend masa kini dengan aksara Jawa. Ini membuktikan bahwa hal-hal yang cukup klasik dan bersejarah bisa saja dihubungkan dengan masa modern seperti website yang sering kita buka.

Kalau kalian lihat sendiri detailnya dan garis tepi dari setiap gambarnya itu pakai aksara Jawa! Membuat garis tepi yang tadinya hanya 'garis' jadi artistik dengan pakai aksara-aksara tersebut.
Sayangnya, semua karya illuminasi ini dihiasi sama aksara Jawa, baik garis tepi dan isinya sehingga saya nggak ngerti tentang isinya. Tapi tentu aja, itulah kekhasan dari karya tersebut. Karya-karya JavaScript memang punya rule-rule tersendiri yang membuat itu unik.

Illumination of google.com (starring Steven)

Kalau kalian ke sana, kalian bisa lihat sendiri karya-karya lainnya yang nggak saya sebut di dalam blog ini. Namun sayangnya, pameran ini buka dari tanggal 4-13 September 2015. Mungkin di kesempatan lain kalian bisa melihat karya-karyanya secara langsung. Cheers!

bang bang bang

Gue lagi agak sedih. #lebay

Jadi ceritanya kemarin itu para warriors geli Clar, BIGBANG, abis ngegelar konser lagi di Indonesia. Ya, gue udah tau sih dari awal pas BIGBANG ngumumin bakalan ada lagi world tour mereka, like heck, they will put Jakarta on the list. Gak mungkin nggak.
Beneran aja, kemaren tanggal 1 Agustus mereka ngadain konser lagi, kali ini di ICE (Indonesia Convention Exhibition) di BSD. Bagus ya, udah ada orang yang bikin tempat konser di situ, jadi seenggaknya lebih deket daripada jauh-jauh ke Ancol! Lagipula stadium nya udah ditutup kan ya. Tapi sama aja boong kalo gak bisa nonton. :'(

BIGBANG kalo gak salah terakhir ke sini segrup tahun 2013? Yang jelas saat itu gue masih kelas 10. Lama juga kan gak liat mereka, toh sekarang gue udah lulus.
Setelah mereka perform selama 2 jam dan bawain lagu-lagu baru mereka, such as, BANG BANG BANG, Sober, If You, dan kawan-kawannya... gue agak baper.

Abisnya semaleman gue liatin aja feed di instagram #MADETOURJKT. Haaaaah. Udah lama juga nggak ngerasain euphoria konser. Kapan terakhir ngonser, ya?



Yaudah sih, Clar. Bukan sekali ini lu nggak nonton.

Sort of a new life (1)

Hello I'm back, not with K-pop, sorry. I know K-pop stuffs will make my views rocket high up, but I'm not in the mood to do that.... (maybe I'll do one Beast or Infinite because it is nearing their comeback, we'll see)

If you noticed, or maybe not, I have finished my national exam and passed it with a good score, and now I am preparing for my university lyfe. Sad story short, I attended the SBMPTN, the entrance test for national university. I applied for Architecture and Fine Arts but unfortunately didn't get in. Sooo now here I am preparing for my orientation in UMN; Visual Communication Design.

Actually I am just a bit disappointed, because I know I don't work 'that' hard for this and I was hanging on a fake hope of mine that I could get in. I know, people around me keep saying that you need faith to do it! You have a great brain, so you will get in, right? You just have to believe. That was they said. But I was sure enough that faith with a little bit of work won't work. I was so eager to get into ITB Fine Arts, but my passion to learn social studies (because I learned science in high school) and draw were gone pretty fast. I just worked on what I knew on the test, and do my best on the practical exam.

I am praying that whatever that God choose for me is the best, so I leave it in Him.




Now, I just have to cover my ears and don't care about people thoughts on me.
I guess my choice is a good one.
At least I do what I like to do.
Look at the bright sideeeeeeeeeeeeee

Inspired

Hello back again. I am actually on my long long loooong holiday after I finished my national exam in mid of April. And been searching and thinking of what topics I should talk about.

Then I came out, after I have just watched a movie called "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty".

It is not a new movie, and not the movie that people really talk and excited about (at least around me). It came out on late 2013, and I actually really want to watch it when I first looked at the poster, in the theatre, seriously. But, no, I haven't watched the trailer until this holiday and thought, wow, this is absolutely my kind of movie, I definitely have to watch it.

And I am really amazed.


I write the title 'Inspired' for a reason. Do you know that sometimes, after you watch a movie or read a good book, something just bugging you to do what you just watch or imagine? Something is asking you to get up from your seat and do things? Things that you are dreaming for like years or maybe not a minute ago? I have a lot of them, especially movies like that.

One time it's Bandslam, a movie about a guy who is really into music and ends up unexpectedly managing this one awesome band, and then you just really want to make music. Sing, write a song, and inspire people. (it is still my favorite movie, I remember the lines... and yet the movie is so underrated)
One time it's Wild Child, a movie of an American girl who ends up studying in a English old school and it's like her world turned upside down. But then she learns about life and things about what should a girl really do in his teenage life, not wasting it.
Last time it's Begin Again, probably a popular movie which also talks about music. That they are travelling to make their own album, even without a studio to record. Like can you imagine they are recording it live in the road, train station.. which makes me think that I can make music everywhere I like.

This time, it's Walter Mitty. The movie is a simple example of the motto that is infamous, I think. To go away from your comfort zone. Dream away. And go for it.
I am not gonna think about posting a review about it. I am just going to tell you that I enjoy this movie a lot. I love the character of Walter Mitty. I love it maybe because of the background of the movie, where also talks about photography.


I know those are just movies, dramas, that not really happens in life. But I'm inspired and I love them.

You should probably watch the trailer of "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty", in case you are curious about it.

2014

MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR. 

I hope you're spending the day with your loved ones, your family, friends, boy/girlfriend......



2014 RANT(s). -----------------------------------------

I am feeling really unproductive this year, 2014.

1. Simply you can see from the posts I've read and published are decreasing. Not that I am really busy until the point that I couldn't write anymore. (Truth is: I am) but I actually can spend and give my time if I am willing enough.

2. I sleep too much. For me who hate myself if I wake up late, holiday or not, it is really a different habit.

3. I've been hesitating a lot about my dreams. I've been thinking, from the school's seminars, the one they gave me from 2013 about our dreams, our visions. It is the time, where I once again think about it seriously to the point that I think: "Am I really into it?" I also think about the dream when I was a little. Do I choose this dream because I have the passion, or I just love it? Is there any other dreams that I forgot, slipped from my head?

4. Universities, oh gosh. I want to go to ITB, but I surely have to prepare for it well. I HAVE TO. I don't want to be just 'here' stuck in this hole forever. I want to go out and explore but I am not brave enough to make friends, to go and explore things I want to do.


Then again, I don't think this list should be made. I have to change my habits to be better, that's for sure.

2015 is time for action, isn't it?

I will face national exams, university exams, and hello college. Let's just.... prepare for the best.




And I'm going to recommend you a song that I've been digging to, it's Indonesian and it is my favorite song of the year and maybe until early next year... I hope there are many songs like this.
The song is called "Bahagia" by Gamal Audrey Cantika (GAC) and not just the song is addictive but the lyrics for me are so simple yet really build my spirits up.

Definitely for 2015, I will try to be more positive and hard working. Imagine that my dreams are up in the galaxy, but as long as I work hard, even though I only got it on the sky, I have tried my best!





SEMANGAT!

We made a song! #HARUSKAH

Haruskah kau tinggalkan semua? 

//

Hello guys I come back! Today I won't be talking about k-pop and stuffs but I will be talking about my last project in 12th grade (YAAAAS.) which has just ended.

The project started from the beginning of the 12th grade, with the teacher divided us into 3 groups consist of 8 to 9 members.... Don't need to explain all the details like story telling, but long story short we were assigned to create a song which themed social or love or family and even can consist the two or three of them. We chose friendship with no specific reason and we think it can be referred as social or love.

We made our song, recorded it with professionals, got the song (with my voice on it), shot our music video, and presented it in the school. Sadly, the song that we think is superb and has its own charms didn't win the best music award and the best video award. We had big hopes but unfortunately, we didn't win anything.
I was disappointed, of course. I was the editor of the music video and worked my ass off, but I felt like I didn't get appreciated. The song is really awesome, too, because for me it has its story and doesn't sound boring.

The song itself is about friendship, its a story about two friends which parted because one of them has one new friend. The songs says "Haruskah?" Do we have to part because you get a new friend?




But it was an awesome experience because it has been my dream to record a song and make one too! I feel like I'm closer to music, because this time I'm not a listener, but also a lyricist and a singer.

[130622] Lotte Shopping Avenue 'Grand Opening': VIXX & GLAM (part 2)

Back again with part 2!

Though I told you that I'd be posting my photos and my videos of the event, I don't think I want to.
It is kind of blurry, and I really don't like the quality. Plus I'm not in the mood of editing the photos, keeping the image good..... ah, no thanks.

If you want the photos, just tell me. Maybe I'm gonna post some in part 3, (not plannning to make the post, but oh well.. I'll try.) because there is a close photo of Leo. So close. But because of my extreme zoom-in, it gets noisy and I can see the dots floating everywhere.
Yah, we'll see.

(I arrange the videos as the same rundown of the event!) (scroll till the last vid please!)

The first one is when GLAM came to the judging seats.

Second is when VIXX was judging the last group of Team B, FIXX, covering On & On. See their expressions!




My video! Close enough? They went to the dressing room to touch up and then perform.




I like that!


It's VIXX time people! Found the HD vids.



THE LAST ONE. I should have put it in the middle.
But save the best for the last ㅋㅋㅋ
Look at Leo~

[130622] Lotte Shopping Avenue 'Grand Opening': VIXX & GLAM (part 1)

Need to write this now. It is currently midnight. Past midnight. Exactly is 12.13.
Now here's the story.

I just watched VIXX live performing with my own eyes. Plus GLAM too.
There was an event from Lotte Shopping Avenue in Jakarta which is just opened on 22nd June. Grand opening with the guests, Super Junior's Lee Donghae and Kangin who only came for like 15 minutes because they're absolutely couldn't perform with just 2 persons so they just attend a fansign from the Lotte Duty Free.
Well I don't really care about them. And I didn't met them. I was eating at Pizza Hut when they arrived at the mall LOL.
The other guests were VIXX and GLAM.

You know, VIXX. The one who sing On & On and hyde (from jekyll and hyde concept). I'm a fan of them, I am in their fandom. They are gorgeous. How can they be so white, milky skin? (except N, the leader, who has a dark skin. Not really dark, but just dark for Korean people.)

GLAM and VIXX were the judges for a Dance Cover Contest/K-POP Festival in Gangwon 2013. It's taking place in Lotte Shopping Avenue because the dance cover festival need one group to represent their own country in the finale in Gangwon.

I did't really enjoy it, since it was too crowded plus it was a free event. I just want to see my VIXX (and GLAM).

GLAM did the judging for the Team A while VIXX did the Team B.
So GLAM went first to their seat, missing one person. And I think it was Dahee because maybe she was filming for 'Monstar'. Miso, the maknae, giving us the most fanservice. Well all of them do. They looked to the crowds at their back and also at their left and right.
They were giving us aegyo, and Zinni waving at us. When the crowds said to them to do Kwiyeomi Player, they did it. I don't really see who did it =.=
I took some pictures, but most of them are Zinni since she was the one I could see from my place.

Before moving to Team B. There were S.O.S and S4. I don't really care since I was saving my place for taking pictures of VIXX.

And OMG.

I was so close to Leo. Just a few row, about 3 or 4 more row of people I could freakingly touch him. Their skin are so white. And also they were wearing a white suits for hyde performance.
When the competition goes, there was a group who covering After School's BANG, one of the contestant gave a wink to the crowd (he's a guy though).

And when VIXX gave the commentaries, N asked "Who did you give the wink to?" 

"다 (All of you)" meaning the contestant gave it to all member of VIXX. 

N said, "뜨거워요 (It's hot)" LOL

While a group was covering Girl's Generation's I Got A Boy, I saw N smiling. Maybe his fanboy side rose again, seeing the fake Seohyun on the stage.

And I got a very clear video of VIXX walking from their seats to the dressing room. It can't be considered as so close though, but who cares. At least, I SAW VIXX.


SHABAAM.
They performed the songs and I got the videos, people. Using my dad's Samsung SIII Mini which was kinda blurry. By the way, I got GLAM's video when they were performing I Like That and Party(XXO) too!
That's it.

I was so close to their dressing room. Unfortunately, I can't record video or take a picture of them running from the dressing room to the stage (when they were gonna perform). It was closer than the video I took huee.
I have to save my place for video-ing the performance. It's my sister who saw it. She didn't even have the chance to give my fanart to VIXX. Like, they were running like they are too scared because of the crowds.

Also. GOOD NEWS HONGBIN AND ZINNI SHIPPERS. They were sitting next to each other on the final competition! And I heard Hongbin seeing Zinni like a sec and some cameras took it. Need to find evidence though.


Tagging this post with concert since it was LIKE a concert. Totally. Unless it is free.
Will post the photos and videos on the next post.
Publishing this in the morning (sorry guise, I just posted this now)!
Sorry for the long post!

Birthday, 130608!

Hula, it's my birthday and I'm gonna tell you that I had the best birthday present ever.
Not in a particular order.
#1. I got a running man jacket from my friend. :)
#2. Beast won Music Core. THIS IS HUGE.

Like the most unexpected thing. Who thought the song '괜찮겠니' (a.k.a Will You Be Alright?), the song that they don't promote, won? W.O.N?
I know it's just a k-pop thing again, people who hate k-pop will totally bored with me fangirling....
But it is really a great present for me.

I personally don't really like the song. Though I've been repeating the song in my head for like all day. (I just need time to let it grow in me)
I know it is really a 'Beast' style of song. Kinda sound like an old song. The style that Beast's done the most. That probably why I am so surprised. How could they won first?
The power of B2UTYs are jjang.
Just for you information, they also won #1 on Billboard Korea. YEAHHA.

Beast will be back in July. But they are gonna hold a showcase for their comeback in June 20th. Everyone can join, I think. But only koreans, of course ;(

Here's the full audio for 괜찮겠니!





Take back what I've just said. Okay?
I love the song. ㅋㅋㅋ
Written by Junhyung for a 'certain someone'. Go back together with Hara!

Part 2: Eru First Concert in Indonesia

It is May people! I finally have the time to put up these photos, well just a tiny updates but I hope you like what I took.

With Sule. It was amazing to see one of our comedian on the same stage with Eru XD

Singing 'High High'

He surprisingly sang various popular k-idol songs like Sorry Sorry, Fantastic Baby, and a lot more! We (of course) sang along, and the venue has gone mad.
At the end of the song, he was like 'Just lie tonight. Is Eru better than Big Bang? Better than Super Junior? Better than 2NE1?' And we say lied by saying YES OF COURSE.

Then he sang his most well known song 'Black Glasses'.
But before that, He was crying.
He didn't thought the response of the concert would be like that. He was happy for the fact that a lot of people came to the concert, not expecting for more.
And while we were screaming his name.... He cried.
:''')

Favorite! 

Have so many ideas, reviews and opinions in my head, but I really need to take care of my 'me time' by watching more and more videos and variety shows... plus a new K-Drama. Be back later! 

BONUS! Not the best, but the closest picts that I got.

Dum dum dum dum! Ailee!!

Part 1: Eru First Concert in Indonesia

It's Eru first concert and it's in Indonesia, my lovely country.

Such an honor to be there my friends and sister, watching him from the very front row. Front. Yes. Definitely in front of the stage. KYAAA *screaming like a little girl*

Got at the venue super super early, and had to wait for about 3 until 4 hours until the gate opened. 

I am not actually one of Eru's fan, but seeing him performing makes me want to be one of them.

Concert info:

Took place in Lapangan D, Senayan. Though it is outdoor, felt so hot and sweaty. 

The gate opened late, they said 5.30 but opened it an hour after that. 

The show started at 7.30

The ticket price is so cheap!

It is an neatly arranged concert, it is better than Music Bank. Though it is the same promoter. 

My camera sucks, so the pictures that I took is 50% failed and blurry. Here's some of them:

Saying HI! 

The Queen Ailee is taking the stage. 

Baechigi ft. Ailee - Shower of Tears.

Mighty Mouth's Shorry J plus the man of the night, singing one of my favorite song, Tok Tok. 

I was jumping and enjoying Shorry's stage. He is 대박.

I knew him through his collab with Junhyung's BEAST in 'Hate You', then I saw him when he performed in Music Bank Jakarta.
Just recognized his cool charms at the concert! :)

......Part 2 coming up soon. 

Music Bank in Jakarta

You know what? I finally watched Music Bank in Jakarta (March 9th)!

After all my nagging and stuffs, I watched it. Freaking watched it. 

And I was like YAY. Got the tickets cheaper than the original price, and my father payed for it...

Though I watched it from far away, it was really awesome. 

The presence of my duo BEAST and Infinite. And yea, I got my eyes on Teen Top too. (*-*) 

Teen Top, Sistar, Eru, SHINee, and Suju.... I enjoy your stage....

Love Teen Top, Sistar's Hyorin and Eru when they were singing in Indonesian. 

Who thought Teen Top would be switching song with S4?! 

.......

My view from the bench!

Infinite right in front of my eyes. They were singing The Chaser! 

Oh my gosh, Infinite was dazzling. It's like their first time for them here. It must be awesome, right, boys? 

Thought I would be watching fancams, and hoping Inspirits Indonesia make a great support and effort to bring you back here. But I was there cheering for you guys too. MY FEELINGS. People say they will be back this year for a tour, I hope so.

Yang Yo was singing with all his feels.

Fiction.

And of course, BEAST. I was hoping to see more Yoseob. Can not get enough of him, really. I jumped and had fun so much in the concert...and forgot to stare at Yoseob, like seeing his cuteness. But his voice was enough! I hope Cube will make a tour for them once again, and put Indonesia on the list too. I'm still regretting WHY DIDN'T I WATCH BEAUTIFUL SHOW.

2PM!

They were giving us plenty fanservices! Love. 

2PM was gorgeous. HANDSOME BOY. KKOTMINAM. I love their fanservices. I can be their fan if I want to. Bloody handsome! Plus they were really energetic and their songs are also awesome. It's the songs that I can sing along with <Hands Up, Heartbeat, 10 points out of 10> and I was hoping more of them... They really liven up the stage. 

Super Junior on the stage! Looking good eh.

I don't want to post the details of the concert..... Fanbases have already posted them so much, like on twitter. Check it out yourselves. I just can not wait for it to be aired in KBS. March 19th! 

Will download the full version of the broadcast. I AM SO PROUD OF INDONESIA. 

Say hi! Me, my sister, and Sherlyn. We look so kucel ㅠ.ㅠ

HEHEHE. 

...............My struggle in searching the tickets are all paid. 

Brave

Tangan udah gatel kepengen nulis di blog.
Halooo. Writing in both English and Indonesian.. just doing what I like.

First of all, it's March. You know how much I told you about this month that full of concerts. Enough with them, I even wanna puke if I talk about it again here.

Sekolah gue lagi mau masuk ke minggu-minggu Mid Semester which means I have a lot of materials to read and to be understood. So much. Even the socials studies that I hate, I have to. Making the summary is so hard and give me a lot of pressure.

And it's March. Also means.. scholarship. I have been thinking about this. But I'm still being wishy washy whether I'm gonna join it or not. Thinking about the pressure that I will get if I join the test and thinking about the regret if I don't join it.
It's the only chance I have, since it's only for a tenth grader. I won't be a tenth grader forever.

Give me encouragements. I'm just too shy to take the interview........ Ugh. Oh why do you have to be so shy.
If I join this, I need to do a lot of things, can I handle this? Am I brave enough?
See... making a decision is this hard.

For those who wants to know about what scholarship that I'm talking about, go to here.
It's for Indonesian, tenth graders, and born in August '96 until August, plus someone who is brave enough.

...

And, I love English's songs and K-pop evenly now. I love Lawson and Imagine Dragons! Like they are my new band to be rocked on. Plus I love VIXX too... their concept for 'On and On' is seriously amazing. Strong vampire concept, and the song is not disappointing. Maybe I can admit that I'm one of their fan. :)

Just a 'friendly' reminder: H-7 for Music Bank in Jakarta. ..........

Buts...

Too many concerts in March. *table flip*

I am not ready with all of this. Since the Chinese new year 'gifts' is not really satisfying and I only afford to buy one ticket. 

But there's freaking three (yes, three; or four if you count the non-singer who'll come, Lee Min Ho; but I don't care). THREE. So, K-pop is finally growing here right? But can you make a great schedule, like, I can't spend 2 million in just one month.

There's Music Bank in Jakarta, there's B1A4 showcase, and now it's Lunafly. 

Music Bank is a bigger event compared to the others since it's a tv program, and gonna take place in Gelora Bung Karno. I can't imagine watching Beast&Infinite with a telescope, far away from the stage. But I want to join the euphoria with my colleagues.. Hmm... let me throw away this one. 

B1A4.. I like them, I love their songs. But it's not like I'm their fan. I don't know what to do. It will be disappointing if I don't watch them.... Their songs is freaking good and the looks.... 

Lunafly.. I love them, also their songs. In addition, there's Sam Carter, the foreigner with great british accent. And Yun... And awesome songs! I had recommend one of their songs, right? Um.. I make a post about them here. I love them, but I'm not really a fan. I've done some projects too for Sam's and Yun's birthday. But I can't really express that I am their fan. 

But, their showcase/fan meet ticket is limited. Only for 250 tickets. And can you imagine, seeing them live, face to face. Even the VIP pass gets a chance to take a photo plus autograph..... 

I wanna buy this, but I don't have chingus to go with. (still looking for someone)

It's like there's only one chance for three concert in one month. And I only have around 600k. 

I don't care about parents' permission... Just buy the ticket first. 

But I can't choose properly. 

It's so hilarious to see myself being so pathetic about concerts............ 

Plus have just watched Running Man episode 132. WOW. It's definitely Kwangsoo's year. The tall giraffe is back in action. Like, really, who thought he'd be so smart to handle Jongkook?!! It's like he's been planning it for years. Too those, who haven't watch it..... You'll be surprised. 

And I saw Running Man next episode preview. REALLY SONG JIHYO YOU'RE SO BRAVE. I thought I'm brave enough, but still you're a lot better.

I'm speechless. Thumbs up. 

Messy post

The sudden flu last Friday...and still going on until today. But thanks God a lot more better.

And the tasks, presentations, daily tests, and need to mention a not-so-important Valentine competition about making chocolate and stuffs. 

....Got me going crazy. 

It's a day after Chinese New Year. It's actually a good day if count the money that comes in to my wallet. But my body and mental not feeling really well. Plus the weather is not really helping too. The extremely hot weather, but the you will get a heavy rain after that... you know, it affects my body performance. 

Like the internet, twitter, tumblr, youtube... helping me to reduce the stress? It's not. I'm still care about those crazy stuffs in school. I know I shouldn't be thinking any of it to make me kinda relax, but I can't. 

Sometimes, I just need to sing crazily in my room, listening to rock songs, forgets about k-pop for a while (fangirling makes me stress too, kind of) and...... scream. Or eat lotsa food! Delicious food (I've got so much in mind)

The good news is I have money. To buy ticket. Concert. B1A4 or Music Bank in Jakarta. Choosing one of them is sooo hard for me.

But I think I'm gonna watch B1A4 since if I watch Music Bank, I can only afford to buy the furthest seat for the concert, but abandon this one and only chance is not any better. Like, my BEASTFINITE is finally going into the town. My feelings......... 

But I somehow sure that Infinite is going to hold a concert in here, SOLO. It's just my prediction.... but I hope so. 

And because of this stress mind, I opened US Embassy in Indonesia website and saw a student exchange or something like that. I really want to get out and try new things. CAN I. 

Feeling so much better after I wrote this... :)

I think I need to recommend you something. Was about to put Boys Like Girls or We The Kings songs here, but I found this... Please welcome Clara C! 

For me, it's better than the original. Sounds elegant..... I always love her voice :")

I'm tired

This holiday is soooo soooo boring.
Can't get out from this city.
Stay at home for the whole week.
Went to the SAME mall for some days.
Everyday, take my time to online.... well I don't have anything to do.
For everyone out there, who's not enjoying his/her trip to other country or city. Give it to me.
Let me just, get out from this BINTARO, for a day.

Feeling so pathetic.

Now that I'm in my comfortable yet boring home, rain hard, really hard, please.
Maybe some of you will be annoyed, but siting inside here, makes me feel, there must be a 'great' reason to be at home. Then, rain it is.

Please fall again.

Sincerely, Clara.

p.s.: okay, that is too much nagging. forgive me.
NEED TO DO SOMETHING. 

By the way, happy new year. Will be back with some more important stuffs. 

Critical

Okay. Posting something personal here. Since I thought this blog needs it..... when the half part of me wants to write K-pop. Again. Hmm.
I've moved house about less than two weeks ago. Maybe. I forgot.
The house is bigger. But it's far. Far from school + my... culinary friends.

I love the house. Except the fact that the house is divided in half. One for my family, and one for my grandma. Don't really enjoy living with my grandma. But what can I do? The house is bought by her, I can't complain. ......but I'm still feeling uncomfortable. You know, when she comes into my room, I feel kinda nervous and, uncomfortable. I'm feeling bad, but I can't do anything.

Plus I haven't made any friends here. All I do is sitting in front of the computer, lingering in my room, watching TV. Feeling so pathetic. ;((

But YEAH MAN exams are over! School is great. Especially friends.

Yeah, my life is boring.
Now, let's get into k-pop *yes. finally.*
Fangirl feels comes back when Yoseob is out.
He's out with 'Caffeine'. Freaking love the song. Well it's better than Sunggyu's. The fact that it's so conceptional, the lyrics, the M/V, and the dance. Yong Junhyung is talented, you see?
So many songs come out, and many of them that I like. Some of them:



Ever heard about Clazziquai? They aren't my favorite, but they have talent. I like them this time!
....while Lunafly is back with an acoustic-mellow songs, which I don't really like. I'm gonna listen to it again, maybe it'll grow up in me.

And I'm in love with Crucial Star. Another K-indie, I think? Oh, just found out that he's a rapper about a minute ago. THANKS WIKIPEDIA. Just found out his twitter @crucialll. *feeling like a stalker now* He's just launched his new album, 'Fall'.
Give thanks to the girl's voice, I'm in love with this song.



Listen!

The 1st and The Best

HAPPINESS.
BigBang Alive Tour in Indonesia 2012.
I watched BigBang two days ago. Yes. I watched them. The first concert i've ever been.
I'm still in the state of euphoria. Been talking about this concert with my sister ever since i wake up this morning haha.

Came to MEIS (Mata Elang Intl Stadium) at about 4.30 PM, and i directly went to the queue, which was almost full. Long queue. LONG. And the gate opened at 6.30 PM(maybe?). My legs were about to sunk.
Finally got in to the venue at 7 PM. The seating is not bad. Got the left side front. And it was so close to the led screen. High quality boy.

And the concert started. Do i have to tell you the details? I just type what i remember ya :)
It started at 8 PM. About a minute before, bigbang members (don't know who) showed up from the left side of the stage. And we were screaming so loud. I got into the feeling, and start screaming too of course.

 They came out with capsules and started to sing the intro from their Alive album, 'Still Alive'.

I forgot the set list haha. But i know that in the front there was 'Tonight' and some other upbeat songs.

In the break, i remember they introduced themselves to us. All i remember was Daesung, "Nama saya thaesung, nama saya thaesung" and a short one from TOP, "Nice to meet you.... TOP."

>> fast forward

Okay, they continued the concert with more slow songs (actually i forgot sowruih). But i remember when Daesung, Seungri plus Taeyang were chatting and talking about indonesian foods. Seungri said he likes mi goreng (fried noodles). Forgot about the others, but Daesung said, "Lendang, mi goreng, mhakanan." LOL

And it's GD and TOP time aha! They sang 'Knock Out' and then 'High High'. YEAH MAN. They are my favorites, totally rocks the stage. And the beat sounds so huge, filling up the venue. 

Of course all the members got a solo stage.

Seungri sang 'Strong Baby' and 'What Can I Do?' with a spy or police concept. I really love the lighting in ejjeorago. ♥

Taeyang sang 'Only Look at Me' and 'Wedding Dress'. My sister was pretty disappointed because he didn't sing 'I Need a Girl', but i'm okay with that. And he ripped his shirt at the end of his solo stage. Man.

Daesung sang 'Wings'. Oh mai gawd, really my favorite. His voice was really really awesome. Plus a little surprise... the pretty angel's wings. I love youuuu.

GD don't get his solo stage. I'm disappointed because i was waiting for 'Crayon' and 'One of a kind' on stage huhu. :'( but he sang a short preview with beatbox by Seungri. 

Bigbang sang so many hit songs like Last Farewell, Number 1, Gara Gara Go, Lies, Haru Haru, Fantastic Baby, Blue, Monster, Bad Boy, Hands Up, Love Song, Cafe, How Gee, and Stupid Liar. 

Haru haru is totally my favorite. We sang along to the song, and the concert venue was filled up with our voices. I really want to record it, but i'm gone with the atmosphere. 

Taeyang made his own rap, with "Aku cinta padamu". It was so hilarious. Too bad i didn't record it. 

Plus Seungri was playing with us, he knew or maybe watched OVJ, he said that Indonesian likes this kind of comedy. And he told the other members to do "Eeeeee~ aa~" and the members don't understand. So, Seung explained to them in korean LOL. "it's like ee~ yeah" so the members gone solo and tried it themselves. Daesung and Seungri were so hilarious, and they talked so much, despite their not really good english (if we compare it to the other members). And Taeyang talked so much too, like of course, he likes to converse with us. GD talked, but he remains cool, BUT still, his english is so pretty, like europeans tryin to talk english. TOP talked, cool, and remains silent. And the fact is, i still love them all. 

I'm totally disappointed.. they didn't sang 'Sunset Glow' here. I thought it's gonna be their encore song. But what? Bad Boy and Fantastic Baby played again for the second time. But it is still fun. Taeyang went down to the Standing (with his bare abs body) and played with the crowd. Dancing in front of them and touching their hands. SO LUCKY.
Seungri and GD sat on the edge of the stage and went down too. Those standing people sure had a lot of fun. They even throw lotsa things. ....they are just lucky. *envy*

What a fast two hours of my life.

P.s. Seungri and Daesung were so handsome on stage. I fell in love so hard with bb seungri. *list of bias overloaded*
Though I was in Tribune-1, but I was standing on the chair every time the songs played. I should've just got the Standing one...

Sorry for this full of mess post. I just type everything that i really wanna tell.....
