Shanghai Nights

2nd day after arrived in Shanghai yesterday morning!

THANK GOD!!!!!!!!!!!

today was so fun!!!!

even yesterday we had some fussy problem about living place,

but today was really fun!

at morning, we had to gather in front of the main gate of the campus.

Matthew, Marcella, me and our 2 friends from Maranatha, accidentally met at the lobby..

then, we picked up by 2 student exchange member from Korea, Lee Hae Syu? and Lee something..

their names just too hard to remember.

wkwkwkwkwkkw XD

Matt, Cella and me decided to recognize them not by name, but by their appearance..

the other one is older than another..

so we call them Big Korea (tall one) and Little Korea (short and younger one)..

hahahahhahah XD

our project today was given yesterday by nice Prof, called Prof. Suan..

the project just like fieldtrip around Shanghai..

all student exchange member had to be one group with real Chinese student in here..

Prof. Suan said that all of them know English WELL!!

and taraaaaaa!!!

after the group created and gathered, we tried sooo hard to talk with them..

i try to communicate with English, little messy Mandarin, body language, hand language, and mimic expression..

Just God knows from above that "this movie" needs subtitle ASAP!

even sometimes when i got misunderstood by my partner, Kwan, the real Chinese girl, i just said "okay..okay.. wo ming bai (i understood)"..

in fact, what am i asking, and what is your answer mah ku naon??????

tena na nyambung in Makassar language, gals!

hahahahahah XD

with metaphor like, ask someone to scratch your itchy hair, but they think, you want them to scratch your ass..

yepp, so assomeeee!!

==!

walked, sightseeing, ate Xiao Long Bao (very delicious! but she said, it's not.. in Shanghai, there are many good Xiao Long Bao restaurant), window shopping, and got confused with each other languages just so much fun!

she told me the center to buy electronic stuffs, fashion store, and other nice things..

she was good i think..

when we went to Ruijin 2nd road, i saw nice cafes inside one area near this road..

many western people come, sightseeing and had their tea time..

the interior of the cafes are unique..

not only cafes they had, but also accessories shop!

even, the accessories shop sell stuffs with expensive prices!!!!!

and suddenly, met Big Korea with her group member..

her leader for the group went back to campus to attend another class..

but the one left with her, can't speak English well more than Kwan..

so we decided to walked together..

because my power just like granny, even Kwan said that we will walked and sightseeing until dinner time, i decided to back..

and i heard by myself, the partner of Big Korea isn't so nice with her..

Big Korea at first wanted to go to Nanjing Road, famous fashion brands and great stuffs are in here, even with expensive price..

partner of Big Korea told Kwan in Mandarin that she wanted to go back home, and stop to have sightseeing..

and at this point, i saw for so far, Kwan is a good person..

even her friend told her that she had to refuse to go to Nanjing road,

she still asked me and Big Korea if we really wanted to go to Nanjing road or what?

i asked her quickly to go back to our own place..

it was a better idea i thought..

than, when we went to Nanjing road and partner of Big Korea show us her bad mood ugly face..

HAHAHAHAHHAHA xP

back home and had a lot of stories to share with Marcella and Matthew..

they had fun experiences too!!

their experiences were totally ridiculous!

wkwkwkkwkwkwkwkwkw XD

can't share it here, because it is a long long long long long story!

from Matthew, I know..

when Japanese meet their own kind, they will greet to each other like this:

Y: Hoka-hoka Bento!

X: Yakiniku!

X: Kuka kuka Ninja!!!!

wkwkwkwkwkwkwkwkkwkwkwkwkwkwkwkkw XD

this day was so amazing ridiculous!

lesson for these 2 days,..

tau Cina, tena na baji' singkamma tau Cina ri Indonesia..

just like snake you know..

and better snake if they know you can't speak their language..

Teddy Bear Cafe near Ruijin 2nd Road..

Teddy Bear Mode

will posting another photos here..

it's 4am at morning!

and connection in my living place up and down like squad jump exercise..

*sigh*

decided to sleep now..

Wan An! ><

Goose bumps??

not at all..

even, seems like i forget that tomorrow gonna leave my country for a while..

tomorrow before i take off to Shanghai, have a lot of businesses to deal with!

starting with meet my Head Department, go to money changer, go to bank to deal with my M-Banking, and have to buy some medicines for my nasty allergy..

till the very last day, i didn't have any relaxing me day..

in my mind, in my plan,..

i wanna have fully body treatment..

but what can i say..

some things are have to left behind for something really really IMPORTANT..

can't imagine that less than 24 hours, i will go to Shanghai!!!!!

HAHAHAHAHHA XD

*so random*

Packing Stuff and OH, I'VE GOT A LESSON!

3 days left, and i'm still packing my things..

my suitcases i know for sure are in fully loaded mode!

seems like i wanna bring a whole closet with me..

in fact, even half of it, isn't..

HAHAHAHAHHAHA :D

i'm bragging like shit, i know..

after, my living place and course issues solved..

i still got another problem!

this day, i'm kicked by God, because my mouth talked like crap about others!

my beautiful new dress got a huge hole because i use iron with too much heat on it..

:'(

yes, i've got the lesson..

never do that again, Valia!!!, nor repeat it again!

moreover, 2 little pockets are full with my equipments..

my huge luggage.. much things are still excluded!! panic 911 you know..

 if you ask me, what things inside it, i don't even know..

i just put them in and in and in, because i need them i think..
and, suddenly, it's puff like this..

in fact, yapp, much things are excluded!

and now, i confuse how to arrange it, so my make up case and my make up pouch can fit in!

even bedcover and sheets can't leave behind..

my Hair Dryer..

no dryer, i'm died.. (well too over act :p)

Girls' madness which, maybe happened to you, as happened to me :

1. When we got stress, we will shopping more than usual.. MORE!

2. After we spent almost of our money, we feel happy! indeed!! Seems like all things that make us stress dissapear nowhere!

3. We go home, and feel so happy, next days, after all things that make us stress gone, we will look to our groceries, and realized, what the hell i bought???? WHAT???

4. The nice elegant purple dress we tried in store make us look like fat widow.. The shoes that we fitted on, previous day make us look like Cinderella, and now, it's just make our feet look like chicken feet..

5. HAHAHAHAHA IRONIC MORON.. then we will promise to ourselves, NEVER EVER EVER AGAIN, SHOPPING WHEN YOU STRESS AND GOT ANGRY, OR SAD..

6. But when some things and some people make us down and wanna scream out again, we will DO THE EXACTLY SAME CYCLE from number 1 to 5..

7. Maybe, not all of women in the world like this, but, half maybe release their stress with shopping, while others release it with EATING! Yes, seems like there's nothing wrong with eating, but, hey, i'm not stop telling you yet, they will EAT A LOT!

8. And maybe, some others like me, release it either with SHOPPING LIKE A BILLIONAIRE (in case, in fact i'm not yet! hahaha :D) and EAT A LOT (like those bitch who eat a lot and never get fat! lucky you, skinny lady! *i say it with envy and friendly tone*).

9. Some who release their stress and sadness through eat a lot, will regret it no longer like shopping  freak in my previous points (few days), but, they will regret it immediately after they finish their stress release ritual!

10. Others, who are going to insane stage, will immediately try to throw up. yes, the anorexia one..

11. While others maybe just regret, regret, and regret, but then,..

12. Think and promise, I WILL NEVER EVER EVER EAT A LOT AGAIN WHEN I GOT STRESS, SAD AND ANGRY..

13. But, then.. yes, you guys know the rest of it, we will exactly repeat those cycles.. hahahahahahaha :D

14. Never, trust those girls (with nice or normal look) who said "i didn't have enough clothes.. i only got few.."

15. TRUST ME, NEVER TRUST THEM! why?

16. Because when you open their closet, you'll look they have them A LOT!.. if you just see, yes just few like she said.. try point 17th..

17. Try pack it, as if they wanna go travel to some where for 6 months or maybe just 1 week, with only 1 suitcase (like my case :'..)..

18. And you'll amaze! She doesn't bring the whole closet to her suitcase, but, it will look like they will bring whole closet with them. short words, if you got confused with my long explanation, 1 suitcase for 1 week travelling, can't contain her "1 week only" clothes!

19. Yes, it happened to me either! i'm typing it in here, because, i did those stupid points above..

20. Why girls born as a material one, (hey all girls in this world are material girls, but the measures of their material are different)?? because, their needs (well, maybe half not based on needs, but wants! :p) equal to 5 normal guys' needs..

21. REAL EXAMPLE, 6 of 10 girls, for only, based everyday make up, they're gonna need 4-5 different face base necessities.. from maybe toner, moisturizers, sunblock, concealer, (sometimes, some of them add foundation too) before put a powder in their face.. yes, nowadays, BB Cream has been invented.. but, the price of nice BB cream equal to price of those necessities..

well, just that as far as i know and have experienced about..

but later when i realized more of my kinds' madness, i'll posting about it again :)
gotta go to pack again!!

JESUS IT IS YOU - True Worshippers

WHO MAKES THE SUN TO RISE 

AND BRING THE EARTH NEW LIFE IN EVERY BEAM

JESUS IT IS YOU

WHO TURNS THE DAY TO NIGHT 

AND WATCHES ME AS I BEGIN TO DREAM

JESUS IT IS YOU

WHO BRINGS ME FOOD FOR MY TABLE, 

WHO CARES FOR ALL OF MY NEEDS

WHO WALKS THE ROAD WITH ME

HAS GROWN WITH ME THROUGH ALL THAT I HAVE BEEN

JESUS IT IS YOU, JESUS IT IS YOU

SO I LIFT MY HANDS AND I BRING MY SONG

ALL OF MY DAYS, ALL OF MY RIGHTS, ALL OF MY WRONGS

I OFFER MY LIFE, HERE AND BEYOND

TO THE ONE THING TRUE, JESUS IT IS YOU

WHO SEES MY BROKENNESS 

AND CARRIES ME WHEN I AM FRAIL AND WEAK

JESUS IT IS YOU

WHO TELLS THE STORM TO REST WHEN I AM OVERWHELMED AND CANNOT SPEAK

JESUS IT IS YOU

WHO WEARS MY GUILT ON HIS SHOULDERS, 

WHO HOLDS MY HEART IN HIS HANDS

WHO TAKES MY THOUGHTS AND FEARS 

AND HANGS THEM ON THE ARMS OF CALVARY

JESUS IT IS YOU, JESUS IT IS YOU

feel so touched by this song :')..

feel His present in my life more more and more nowadays..

yes, in my previous postings, i act like insane, losing mind person..

but, hey, that's life, dude..

sometimes, many things, many people around you make you lose your minds..

and even you try to control yourself, you just failed..

for me, every time i failed, yes, i got stressed and sometimes i cry like baby bitch..

and yes, i curse too, when i can't handle it anymore..

it's natural you know!

i'm human, not a robot who doesn't has emotions and feels..

every time i lose my mind, i lose control, i lose everything..

after i bring them all out, i feel in control again..

it's okay to do it, as long as you didn't bring chaos to others..

the nice thing about many things and many people nowadays which and who bring you to your boiling and control point is..

(after you cry, and got stress phase)

you'll realize, you need Him so much more than you used to be..

We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together - Taylor Swift

I remember when we broke up the first time
Saying, "This is it, I've had enough," 'cause like
We hadn't seen each other in a month
When you said you needed space. (What?)
Then you come around again and say
"Baby, I miss you and I swear I'm gonna change, trust me."
Remember how that lasted for a day?
I say, "I hate you," we break up, you call me, "I love you."

Oooh we called it off again last night
But oooh, this time I'm telling you, I'm telling you

We are never ever ever getting back together
We are never ever ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together

Like, ever...

I'm really gonna miss you picking fights
And me, falling for it screaming that I'm right
And you, would hide away and find your peace of mind
With some indie record that's much cooler than mine

Oooh, you called me up again tonight
But oooh, this time I'm telling you, I'm telling you

We are never ever ever getting back together
We are never ever ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me (talk to me)
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together

Oooh yeah, oooh yeah, oooh yeah
Oh oh oh

I used to think that we were forever ever
And I used to say, "Never say never..."
Uggg, so he calls me up and he's like, "I still love you,"
And I'm like... "I just... I mean this is exhausting, you know, like,
We are never getting back together. Like, ever"

No!

We are never ever ever getting back together
We are never ever ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together

We, ohhh, getting back together,ohhh,
We, ohhh, getting back together

You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me (talk to me)
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together

Jadi, orang-orang diluar sana, yang masih kepo tentang kehidupan saya..

pernah tidak Anda-Anda sekalian berpikir untuk mengurusi hidup Anda sendiri??

well, saya tahu, mungkin sekarang kehidupan saya terlihat sedemikian menariknya untuk Anda..

untuk Anda bertindak dan berlatih seperti agen FBI ataupun Sherlock Holmes maybe..

mengorek sedalam-dalamnya tentang hidup saya hinga partikel-partikel terkecilnya..

thanks of course for the very first time..

i'm flattered..

indeed, huge honour..

but, hey..

use your own damn great brain, which God gives to you..

gunakan otak dan nalar, dan akal budi Anda-Anda sekalian untuk mengurusi urusan dan diri Anda-Anda sekalian masing-masing..

jangan bertingkah like STUPID DAMN HOES AND GIGOLOS who act like know my life very well more than God..
pada faktanya, Anda-Anda dan hidup Anda juga tidak sempurna, tapi memangnya saya pernah bertindak sedemikian ANNOYING-nya seperti yang Anda-Anda lakukan sekarang??

oh, and yes, i curse.. i use those pearl words..

who cares??????

ooo, saya lupa, Anda-Anda sekalian CARE so damn much..

apa lagi?? ingin menjudge lagi, saya yang biasanya sangat ROHANI, kenapa menggunakan kata-kata itu??

well, those words created and invented for people like you, fools!

saya manusia biasa yang punya batas kesabaran.

and yeah, i reached my boiling point.

btw, no offense..

cukup tau dengan Anda..

dan well, kecewa??

indeed ma'am..

NEVER blame you..

manusia memang punya potensi mengecewakan..

but at least, honeslty..

knowing you for years, you're the last person in my list who has those disappointment potency for me..

sorry for all my mistakes, and reckless, and bitch things i've made for you..

last, one day i'll give my promise to you in real life..

i owe you much much much through many chapters in life, MILLION CHAPTERS instead  :)

hahahahahhahahah XD

happy 20th bday, Rinaldy Chin (yellow t-shirt beside me)!

You're one of my best guy friend!!!

Indeed..

even sometimes you make me and Meg upset with your silly things attached to your crushes..

yes, with -es!

you just so easily fall for a girl..

hahahahahha XD

may in this 20th age you can commit with one girl only!!

GBU and have a blast!!!!!!

 

oh i love this photo!

HAHAHAHHAHA :P

 

 

continue from at The Project :D posting

Hong Kong Last August

Can't get enough for this city ♥

Spending this whole day by finished some orders for my friends..

and, read Merry Riana's novel, Mimpi Sejuta Dollar..

yes, i haven't finished it yet..

but, i promise myself, i'll finish it by this month or maybe next month..

hahahahahah XD

it is as always burn my spirit and open my mind to be a success person before i get 30 like Merry Riana..

she's tough, and truly survivor..

apart that she depends on God too..

but she has faith.. strong faith to be free from her economic conditions..

besides that..

yaaa wanna write..

that yes life is tough..

and get harder when you jump into real world..

when your eyes opened that forever is totally bullshit words..

and.. yes, some ugly shit happens.. almost all time..

when 1 problem haven't solved yet, others come..

again, push me as ordinary human..

other is you will totally realized, you can't depend on human..

you have to go back to your Creator and depends only on Him..

just like i did recently..

today's lesson is..

sometimes ugly shit happens, troubles come, and you feel like you can't trust no one even the closest,..

but one thing for sure that can be trusted, maybe they are just signs from God to wake us up from our ego pride..

:')

Simple Test Before I Step Into Real World :')

i'm upset..

just few weeks ago i felt so damn happy because i got my job as a freelance writer..

freelance writer for discount web FYI..

and then, we had a deal that i can submit my article about 30-100 a month..

because my salary counted on how much article i've mad, i was so excited about it..

every night i spent hours to look for sale events with the photos, and made good article..

in my mind, i counted around 70-80 articles i already made, and sent to my boss..

in fact, just this noon i've been told that, he accepted only 30 articles from 70-80 articles that i've made..

"his web team" dismissed more than half of my articles..

shocked?? of course!

because when i began and accepted this job, he didn't tell me that not all of my articles could be dismissed..

yes, well, maybe implicitly he said, "well, later we will tell you how many articles we've approved"..

but for godsake, i never imagine that they could dismissed my articles as much as that..

more than half..

and why they dismissed it, still they didn't tell me why they dismissed more than half of my articles..

in my mind, if they told me why they dismissed them, i can never go wrong again in making my articles..

i don't know, am i too naive, or too sincere, or because they look me only as kid, who is just a new comer in business world..
so they can make a fool of me..
and just like that dismissed more than half of my hard works for these past few weeks..

gosh..

my mom just said "let it go, maybe it's not your fortune yet.. let God decides and avenges it for you.."

thank you for your advice mom..

you're the best mom ever in the whole world!!!

well..

i try it now..

maybe it's just my first experience in making money world, in business world..

"trust no one" is a great and proved quote!!

and maybe too, it's just a simple test for me before i really step my foot into business world, especially in journal world as an editor in future..

it's just a simple test :')

PS: oh, well they just told me via email why they dismissed my articles, 

because "the dismissed team" type too much in other web..

in fact, they dismissed the rare team..

such as batik sales,  photo studio sales, furniture sales, and some other things like that..

but.. okay, i accept it as support critics..

lesson learned!

Sudah dari berapa hari ingin menulis sesuatu..

setiap kali di gereja selalu tahu ingin menulis apa..

but here i am, wake up suddenly in the mid of my sleeping beauty process,
and dont know what am i going to do..

haahahah XD

if you asked me 3 years ago, would l i already knew that i could be like here i am as i am now??

the answer might be 50:50..

yes, i knew for sure that i'll be outside my hometown for university time..

but, for sure too i know that i knew that i wouldn't believed how much i've been going through..

so that i could be Valia like i am now..

yep, i know that sometimes i can be soooooo childish like hell..

but, in fact that i already attended my "bible and christian value" class this evening made me realize..

i'm not same Valia anymore..

for some cases, i've been changed..

and yes, people changed (i owe you this confession, Jettt)..

but, why..

i still couldn't believe that people dont change??

am i insane??

hahahhaahha XD

or is it me, who hardly trust people in these nowadays??

July Holiday spent in Trans Studio Bandung

Science Section..play and learn ^^

 

with Marylin Monroe doppelganger..

 

random photo with no setting..

 

random photo with full speed

 

it was July 6th 2012 while Ros and her BF come to Bandung..

the next day, July 7th 2012, we went to Trans Studio Bandung, biggest indoor theme park in world??

i am not a really theme park type people..

if you give me IDR 200.000, i bet you, i'll choose shopping than random play in theme park..

it's just so not me..

and for me, it's wasting time, energy and money..

but because my friends come to Bandung, and they wanna go in here, so what can i say??

as good friend, just let the guests choose what they wanna do, where the wanna go..

it's nice theme park actually, even there were so many people!!!

trust me, MANY!! MANY PEOPLE!!!!

too crowded, until i got headache first step i took..

hahahahahha XD
