born to smile

imma harlequin

i was born to smile

no matter how hard it is

i should keep on trying

:)

when i'm about to go to walk and my shoes are like.. yeah..

i wear sneakers and sneakers only

for me, sneakers is the best shoes invented. so i believe that you've already knew that i only have one kind of shoes : sneakers.

karena gue udah terbiasa pake sneakers ke mana pun, gue jadi nggak terbiasa pake sepatu jenis lain. sampe-sampe buat ngajar pun gue masih pake sneakers, padahal yang gue ajar itu mahasiswa di sebuah institusi ikatan kedinasan yang notabene pada pake seragam dan sepatu pantofel rapi-rapi.

suatu hari, ibu gue maksa gue buat pake high heels pas ngajar supaya rapi dan matching sama baju (hari itu ceritanya gue feminim pake rok panjang). tadinya gue bersikeras tetep pake sneakers, tapi ibu gue bilang nanti aneh kalo pake rok dipasangin sama sneakers. jadilah gue mengalah dan pake high heels ibu gue.

pas waktu ngajar, karena ga biasa, jalan gue jadi bunyi cetak cetok berisik banget. gue aja merasa terganggu, gimana mahasiswanya.. akhirnya sambil nyengir2 gue bilang "duh saya boleh buka sepatu nggak? berisik gini saya jadi nggak enak.." alhasil mahasiswanya mesem-mesem sambil jawab "boleh sensei.. silahkan.." dan gue dengan tampang lega dan malu nyopot high heels itu sambil bilang "maaf ya saya nyeker..".

okay, i know that's idiot. i'm a girl who doesn't know how to wear a pair of high heels. dan yang lebih penting lagi, kayaknya nggak ada mahasiswa yang berharap punya pengajar kayak gue deh..

eh, anyw.. i want to share a picture of me and some of my students (jarang-jarang kan gue share sesuatu tentang kehidupan pribadi). there, i said it..

hayo tebak gue ngajar di mana?

i hate this feeling

yes

yes

yes

i fuckin' hate this feeling

how about you?

Gemini

if you ever wonder what my zodiac is.. yes, it's gemini :)

Gemini : curious, childlike, talkative.

Gemini is the third astrological sign in the zodiac. In astrology, Gemini is considered a "masculine", positive (extrovert) sign. Perhaps the most dominant Geminian characteristic is versatility. It is also considered an air sign, and is one of four mutable signs. Gemini has been closely associated with the planet Mercury and is considered to be ruled by it. A planet god known for its intelligence, awakening, cleverness, wiseness, high education, wise man, or sage.

amen :)

i was floating in space

hey ho. long time no post here. i was floating in space so i had no chance to post anything here. LOLJK. I've been away from blogspot cuz' tumblr seems won't lemme go. tumblr loves me so much (the fact is vice versa) i'm just addicted to tumblr. you can FOLLOW ME if you want :D

and well.. here are several things i brought you from space. enjoy ;)

latest photoworks

i wanted to submit them for a coffee product photo contest, but i misread the rules. F!

if only i knew that it would be like this, i should change the coffee tumblr to starbucks or somewhat nicer.

FACES

Some of my friends asked me to draw their faces. I'm not good in drawing people's faces. I'm not a realist, my little sister is way better. Check out her blog.

traditional drawing pencil + drawing pen + markers on paper.

digital coloring & background tone Adobe Photoshop CS2.

another design for BRAIN

So, my boss asked me to draw a design for an indie band, and gave me the theme : "ordinary is dead". So i thought it would be nice to make a "DESTROY THE ORDINARY" concept. I'm now working on this. The deadline will be on February 1st which means.. THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW. Now I understand why people call it "deadline", because this line is so dead! HA!

I am not a left handed, but i can use both hands to draw when needed. LOL

The progress is 70% so far, but i don't feel like I'm in the mood to finish it. oh me.. when will i stop being a procrastinator?

this is what always happens everytime i try to talk to the guy i like

OMG THIS HAPPENS TOO MUCH!

P.S. : click the picture for larger image.

i just want you to know that..

photo manipulation by me

Lately

You guys probably want to know what I've done when i was away from blogspot. Haha am i over confident? Well whatever, I just wanna share something.. I am now a freelance illustrator for BRAIN creative-visual. Isn't that cool? ROFL, naaaaw, don't take it serious. But I'm so excited that i got this freelance job finally. So lately, I've been busy drawing some designs for BRAIN and do brainstorming more often.

Here are some DOODLES FOR BRAIN

the process of making

I am not a smooth talker. I don't even know how to start a good conversation with my mind.

i named him "DIDO"

YELP! I lose my BRAIN!

So they're all kind of conceptual doodles except for the 2nd doodle. If you don't get the concept, just ask me then. I'll be glad to explain.

And as i write before, i also do brainstorming more often lately.

Here are some of my "brainstorming things"

Fall to pieces

Somebody tell me what am I?

君に届け

It means “reaching you” in English.

Ah anyway, just in case you don't know "I post my artworks here" doesn't mean "You can copy and paste". You may save my doodles just for private collection and you may not redistribute them anywhere. Thank you for understanding :)

Well I'm not moving

I'm bbbbbbbaaaaaack! actually i've made a new blog yeah, but i don't feel like i want to use it. i've posted some (sooo not important) things there, but then i realized that i love my old blog so much. so here i am, back to the rhymeee.

ah btw, dad bought me a camera on November 17th last year. I gave it name, it's ZooeyD (because i love Zooey Deschanel so much). haha.

These are some images i took using ZoeeyD. My first conceptual photo session with my new soulmate :)

WHEN DOODLES MEET CAMERA

You can see more images taken or concept by me on my deviantART or my FLICKR
