Starting this week, my daughter is going to daycare when I go to work. It's more exhausting of course to be a working mother without support from other. But actually I am happier with this condition. Being independent, more responsible, more relying each other (with hubby), and feel more worthy as a mother, as a wife.
Also I am back to cooking again. One of hobby that left because of too much focusing on work. This week I tried spaghetti and vegetables saute. Just simple cooking. Will share the recipes on another post!
Now, get back to daughter and hubby after blog marathon post!
Got information from my violin teacher about this:
And suddenly memories come back. A dream that have not been reached. To be an orchestra violin player.
I realize, more than three years I didn't play the violin. Only four months left until the audition. And the worst thing is I don't have a violin anymore. My violin teacher also said it will be difficult. But the dream is haunting me. I can feel like there is a butterfly in my stomach when I'm thinking about this. It's my passion. An oblivious passion.
"What are dreams made of? Hopes? Fantasies? Childhood memories? Are they made of anything? Or are they actually the result of something else? Or are dreams simply a trigger so we move forward?"
After brother's wedding day, we decided to have a small trip to a place in Bandung. We choose: Braga! First we went to Braga City Walk and have a lunch a D'Kiosk. The mall is actually a little bit quite I think, no much to see. So we went outside, had walking on the Braga Street, take pictures by sister's magic stick aka "tongsis" (haha..), until "Taman Braga". Interesting :)
Here are the photos!
Should try another eat place along the Braga Street indeed!
Dinda Puspitasari is a life style blogger (Take a Look) and an freelance illustrator. Accidentally, I collect all of her books and I like them very much.
The first one is #88LoveLife book by Diana Rikasari. I bought it because I am one of Diana's blog follower and I like very much when reading her post about quotes, about life. So it is a perfect book to buy. Dinda is the book illustrator.
The second one is Brain Beauty Belief by Dian Pelangi. I also bought it because I am Dian Pelangi's blog and Instagram follower. She is a role model for muslimah today and it is interesting to know how to keep smart, fashionable & beautiful, and obedient to our religion in one book. Dinda is also this book's illustrator.
The third one is Taylor Swift Style Essential. This book is written and illustrated by Dinda herself. And I bought it not because other person. I bought it because I love her illustration and want to know about my other favorite girl, Taylor Swift, style. I tried to search this book on Gramedia Aeon Mall BSD and Cinere Mall but I couldn't find it. So I asked Dinda in her Instagram, and she reply! Hihi.. Nice girl :) So the suggestion is to buy the book in Grazera. And now I have it!
Beside Ed Sheeran, singer that I like to play in Youtube is.. Taylor Swift. First time I put her name on Youtube search is because my friend's post (on Path) about listening one of her song. I forget the song title, but it made me curious about her. After clicking Taylor Swift top tracks, suddenly I can not stop to play it again and again. At that time, I was keeping on repeat "Blank Space", "Shake It Off", and "22".
And then I become more curious about her, especially want to know about the meaning of her songs. I heard, that most of her songs is talking about her ex-boyfriends. Is it true? I search on Google and find this site. And I read the meaning of my favorite songs there and another songs after some while, and amazed (hihi..). It is nice to know the story behind of songs, what is the meaning of it. And I am amazed also because there is her fan that make that site, special to write about the meaning of her songs. And so detailed.
Even there is site which talk over about her style. You can find it in here. And the writer is also her fan. Indeed, she has a huge fan base. Actually, her style is also something I think. She loves red lipstick, simple and looked no much effort to be seen beautiful. Although after I follow her on Instagram, she now also wears uncovered clothes (hihi.. hope you know what I mean).
Back to her music. Her latest songs is quite interesting also. "Style" about her love story with Harry Styles (One Direction) and "Bad Blood" about her bad relationship with Katy Perry. Haha.. Now I seen like one of Swifties huh? :D
I think if I pick one of her song as my favorite for now is..
