Hem so i guess I’m silence to much about couple of weeks, yep I’m still finding what really suits me well both in life and art stuff, but I swear I’m terribly lazy ass to draw now, i don't know why, I want to change direction in life, I want to travel but for a while i travel in my painting then, I’m really eager to learn concept art this and mechanical stuff now, but job comes along and I have to accept to continue this life and my cats life too. Do I regret to choose this way of life? I guess for now, I’m thankful for what I got, If I have bigger chance in life to do better things, I’m adaptable and fine with that as long as I don’t abandon my passion, let’s keep on rockin’.

In this Ramadan, I founds so many new thing, first of all before Ramadan, I celebrate my birthday, thanks God that I’ve come so far and still looks young hahaha *narcissi mode*, but really everyday I say Alhamdulillah, every problem, joy and other thing, I still can laugh and living happily despite all the things, let’s always move on to the good thing.  What else interesting?, oh voila, I’m no make up person but my other business makes me to understand this beauty stuff, at first I got stress but let’s becoming Pro, no time to whine, so I learn and  hopefully step by step I can manage it.

After the entire thing, I firmly believe real beauty is not visible in the eyes but you must see it inside. Make up is just covering your appearance, that doesn’t polish your soul, you can wear good clothes but that doesn’t mean you are better than a beggar with the torn clothes, that’s what I have in my mind. After all the things in this world are temporary, why we must so much crave for it? And sell our soul for the mark of the name “beauty” labeled by certain person, when eveyone can have their own beauty.

Let’s move on, in this Ramadan I contemplate a lot and  that i have so many blessing in life, I thankful afor all the blessing that i have. I talk the word “rizq”/blessing is not only refers to money, not at all, I talk about other thing, would you consider “friend” is a blessing too? I think so, good friend leads you to the thing that you may not know and  may bring goodness in your life, so whoever become my new friends recently, really nice to meet you, hope we can be good friend or even best friend, looking forward to it ^^, hope i can be a blessing to you as you may be a blessing in my life, and dear Allah hear this plea, to You only ;i depend my life and my friend's life, protect them always, Amin

Did you know? everyday there was a huge cat always coming at my house
every day, the cat isn't mine, my neighbour own it ^^ but since the
owner is already old-no relative and sometime, she can't even get up
to feed him, therefore, i always give that cute cat some food, when i
open the door, i feel "whoaa, he's coming ".

I used to have pets in the past but i stopped it after my dog
"Brown-kun" got hit by the car, i was 5 years old at that time, so the
memories is always vivid on my mind and i don't want to be sad like
the old days again, my yellowish cat "grafield" is also killed and thrown to sea by my mean relative, yes it is definietly true-no joke about that, i was crying hard at that time ^_^,my Horse "suci"& my rabbit is dead too due to old age, Thanks God i didn't become Emo girl and move forward haha

lets' think them in a good memories but Yep, i stop thinking having pets againbut now when i met Lan-chan, she have dogs and really good and cute dogs, gradually, my heart open again and when i have time ,i will play with that cat even he doesn't even want to be held haha, i think someday, i probably have one again, for now, i try to wait him, every morning, i called him "chubby" and give him the food that he's been looking for, i will love him as the owner always did (who really kind to me-considered me as her grandchild). Let's meet every morning
"Chubby" and smile from the bottom of our heart ^^.
