Favourite quote's from mangas

Image
I personally believe that comics, or manga specifically, aren't merely for entertainment purpose. No no. One actually can learn from comic books. For instance, From Kodocha Child's Play #5 - Miho Obana Chapter #22 ( http://www.onemanga.com/Kodomo_no_Omocha/22/04/ ) (second column) In Indonesian version, " Aku bahkan ingin bertanya pada gadis-gadis yang mencinta. Cinta itu dimulai dari mana dan mulai kapan." A very interesting question, I think. Or this quote from Crayon Shinchan #32 - Yoshito Usui "Wah, jangan-jangan pacar sesama jenis? Tidak usah malu-malu. Di dunia ini memang ada macam-macam bentuk cinta kan ." Helped me to understand that I really shouldn't judge homosexuals. Love do come in all sorts of way... And who am I to judge anyway? And of course, this one: Working Man (Hataraki Man) #2 - Moyoco Anno "Sibuk bukan berarti sudah bekerja dengan baik. Dan kalau sudah bekerja dengan baik, bukan berarti hebat." Aren't there times yo...

Hendak Pergi..... Memilih ato Berkebun?!

*Dalam semangat nasionalisme, entri hari ini sepenuhnya ditulis dalam Bahasa Indonesia.* Eksperimen padu padan hari ini untuk ke TPS. Celana pinggang tinggi yang baru sekali dipakai, saya potong. Terus jadinya kelihatan lebih mirip celana berkebun, tidak tahu kok bisa begitu?! Haha, gak papa lah.... "pura-puranya berkebun" Nah, "Sudahkah Anda menggunakan hak pilih Anda? "

Precious Hardcovers and Latest Treasure

Image
Keep an undying love for my favorite hardcovers. Put A LOT of effort to purchase some of them (starving, do extra saving, etc) and some are highly appreciated gifts. Hohoho.... Scarlett, Order of The Phoenix, Brisingr, The Deathly Hollows, Totto-Chan, and The Series of Unfortunate Event - The End. And of course, Daniella's latest treasure: "Jung Woo Bag" Purchased in Etava vintage shop UGA! I mean look at that knob.... For me, it makes the bag look graceful and powerful at the same time! The big stitch, the trim.... They don't make this kind of details anymore these days. Not for the kind of money I paid for this bag at least (Rp 70.000 = about 5USD) . Nope, these days they make machine-made bags with no details/poor details for the same price. Oh well.

Banci Aksesori

Image
"I am a banci aksesoriii..... Syalalalalaaaa..... " (necklace: Etava; bracelet: Pasar Atum; and my mightiest big white ring: a souvenir shop in Galilea) In the mood for accessorizing! Hm. To be honest, I don't really understand studded stuff. They look cool, may be. The thing is, I'm not very much a rock chic. I do consider buying them, for time to time. But then, one shouldn't buy everything that is on a fashion magz, right? Instead, these ethnics accessories are timeless! I think I'm going to stick to rocks and and ropes, goldie silvery, generally beadsy stuff for a long, long time. Also.... Bought this pants at Female on The Move exhibition. Not so bad lah.... And they ARE comfy! Vintage necklace & bag from Etava , Jl. Nusakambangan, Makassar. Hidden treasure chest! "aduh mak banyak utang!"

Strip Strups, Blue Stripes

And Then There Were None

Image
And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie My review rating: 5 of 5 stars for me, this is agatha christie's best novel. each person died one by one, but turns out the murderer was the sixth anak negro. troubled me getting into sleep nights after read it. View all my reviews.

There's 4th, 5th, 6th, and graphic novel of Artemis Fowl???

This is outrageous. I can't believe they don't print all the Artemis Fowl series in Indonesia. I just can't believe it. I recently signed up in goodreads.com , gave my ratings for books I have read, look Artemis Fowl up and what did I find?? That there'are number 4, 5, 6, a graphic novel, and several other Artemis Fowl series. Alright, perhaps I'm over reacting. But still... This is what happens when you live in a city like Makassar, where the best you can get is Gramedia. Don't get me wrong, Gramedia provides me good books all these years. But still... That's it. From now on, no matter how, I'm gonna purchase my books from amazon.com. Amin.
