[Feb. 23rd, 2005|10:06 am] |
Hehheh.. it's been almost 2 years since my last update (thanks for everyone who count it for me.. ) So much things has changed. I'm finishing my graphic design diploma this june. No more Fifi the accountant. heheh.. Well, rite now I'm working part time at the printing shop near my house. Only 5 minutes walking. yayy.. that's what I love most about the job. Yesterday I had to design a menu for a small cafe in maroubra. The owner's handwriting is really really bad.. Had to struggle really hard to understand it. I almost think I nailed everything perfectly.. except for sandwiches menu. Heh, I wrote "Leg $2.00". I was thinking of ham leg at that time,.. perhaps. heh.. when the guy checked it out in the morning, he was so shocked, he even couldn't remember what it was supposed to be.. Apparently, it should be "egg", instead of leg. Well.. that's just a minor mistake. At the end, he went home happily ever after.
Another updates on love life: I'm engaged. ^___^
Updates on anime/comic/manga life : I saw the LOTR exhibition last saturday. heh.. it's not even anime. Well, I read that poor prince Yamada Taro from book 1-8. Hahahahhah... had a great laugh! And I watched Ghibli studio movies during last xmas holiday. The blue totoro is so cute.. picking up acorns and store them in his little backpack.. |

| he is.. |
[Jan. 6th, 2003|10:42 pm] |
I haven't seen him for 4 years, but he always have a special place in my heart. Maybe because he's what I call, my first love. The first person that I really care, and the first person that taught me so many things about life, about love, about God, ..
For 4 years, he was only a memory. Sometimes, it was so fague, and it felt almost like a dream.
And it feels like a dream too, that I'll be seeing him tommorow nite.
It's been so long since I heard that voice again on the phone. He's always been a cheerful person, always like to laugh and crack jokes. But deep inside, I wonder whether he still feel depressed sometimes. ..
I don't know what to do tomorrow.. I don't know what to expect.
Anyway, I think I just have to be happy that I can meet him again. After all, I always wish that this day will come someday... |

I've been thinking lately about the reason why I draw comic... Sometimes the motivation is because I couldn't find the story that I like, so I end up making it myself. On the other hand, maybe I just want to share my imagination .. or my own real life experience with other people..
I haven't been drawing any comic for a long time. Sigh.. it's like, I've been hit with permanent artist block. Couldn't find any interesting thing to write. Perhaps all of these happen because I simply grow older. My imagination is degrading.. and being replace by work, more work, and all those real-life daily routine thought. |

I haven't been writing this journal for so long. Gosh. I can't even remember when was the last time I did it. So many things had happened in the last few weeks. Let's see.. I almost broke my finger at work about 4 weeks ago, then there was Animania (Sydney anime convention), .. etc etc..
It's been a very busy weeks. O___o I quit my part time bakery job today. Already found another job which is more office related, so it's kinda a good start. :D Downside : It's really really really far away from where I live. It takes me about 1.5 hours to go there. Heh.. so I need to wake up at six o clock every morning to be at work at nine. XD The upside: I don't have to work at weekend !!! Yay! So very happy ! Thinking of moving to other place.. Well.. see how it goes in five weeks times..
I draw quite a lot of artworks lately, esp before Animania (Oct 12). Hmmm.. I hope one of my friend will let me use some of his webspace to upload the picture. XD
It's going to be my graduation day soon. Quite dissapointed that my parents won't be coming...
i saw Spirited Away..O___o I really like it! I watched it without any expectation whatsoever (esp since I don't watch anime that often again). And seriously.. everything about the movie is just cool. Planning to buy the dvd and watch it again in the cinema down here.. ^^
Better go to bed now..
Have to wake up really early tomorrow.. ^^ |

Very very tired this week. I've been going out with friends every nite since last friday.
Friday : Had dinner with my anime club friends on friday, and the girls stayed at my place until 3 am. We watched the LOTR DVD together and wonder whether Faramir (Boromir's bro) will become as popular as Legolas when the Two Towers come out this December. Slept at 3.40 am
Saturday : Work. Had dinner with my indo friends. We were making sushi and sashimi. Wheee.. it was really fun!! We had 1 kg of salmon sashimi,tuna sushi, chicken teriyaki, egg omellete sushi, green tea ice cream, and miso soup. We made everything by ourselves ^__^ and they taste really nice and cheap too. We only spent $15 each and the food was abundant! Well, the downside was we spent 3 hours doing everything. Hehe.. Went home at 2 am, sleep at 2.30
Sunday : Late for work. I was supposed to work at 7.30, but I woke up at 7.45! Bad !! really bad fifi! Guess I must've been really tired. I showed up half an hour late. I felt really bad, and I promise never to do that again in the future. Then Anne came to the shop. She bought some cakes too, and we had lunch together.
Well.. By the time I got home, it was 4 pm, and I had to go to my church at 4.15. I was exhausted O____o and my mood turned sour for a brief time (esp when I was about to go to church). I felt like skipping church and just take a nap instead. Hehe, it's a good thing I didn't do that. The service was really great and refreshing. All the bad mood just dissappeared in an instant.
Now, I just want to give thanks to God for everything. For the job He gave me. like, even though I was late, my boss is not angry today), for the wonderful friends I have, both in real life and whom I meet online. For my loving parents (even though dad still refuse to buy me a car. hehe). And yeah.. that I have drawing as a hobby as well... ^____^ .
Okay.. I write really long tonite. I better stop here before I make this livejournal like an autobiography book.. |

| Shorter hair , valet parking and make up.. |

I cut my hair today. >__< Too short for my liking, but people says it's nice. Short hair looks younger and fresh, while longer hair gives a more feminine and mature image. That's what they said. So what kind of image do I want? i have no idea. I just want to be me. But the hair is a bit short though. Oh well, at least it looks neat, and my head feels lighter. I have never grown my hair longer than shoulder length.. Hmmm.. now. Speaking of long hair, I remember that I still have a long hair wig. Have to wear it sometimes too..
A friend of mine who accompanied me there spent $15 for the parking fee, because she accidentally enter the valet parking area. :D And she thought the guy was helping her because the space is quite small and difficult to park.
On a different topic.. Do other girls normally put on make up everyday? I remember when I was in high school, I only needed less than 5 minutes to get ready. Now, I spend at least 20 minutes! And there are quite a cosmetics that I use.Let's see, foundation, moisturizer, powder, lipstick, eyelash curler, mascara..Uh.. hope I'm not being too vain...>__< Sometimes I think that those movie stars are not being just pretty by nature. They have to invest a lot too to maintain their appearances.
About drawing, ..I love my new 17 inch monitor.WOw.. it's really huge compared with my tiny laptop screen!! I draw some pictures, but I haven't been able to finish them all. Need more time, need more exercise too
COmpletely off the topics, but I just feel like writing it :My friend (who took me to Sydney tower before) went to fish market with his friend. And he brought me a large slice of eel. It's really nice of him.. but..I don't really like eels and seafood (except deep fried ones). ^___^
Okay..time to go to bed..
need to go to the gym early tomorrow..
oyasumi.. |

[Aug. 23rd, 2002|02:01 pm] |
Not much of a progress in my case. :P Basically I kinda avoided the guy "friend" lately. He was supposed to pick me up yesterday from my work place and then go to other friend's house. No mood for that kind of stuff.. >__< So I just sms-ed him and told him that I won't be able to make it.. At least I don't have to see him yesterday. The problem is... I have to see him again sooner or later next week. We go to the same bible study meeting, and we have the same group of friends. I'm not sure about the whole thing... but if he start acting really nice again, which makes me really uncomfortable.. I think I will have that small talk with him. Well .. it's true that our friendship is going to be at stake then. But I guess there is no such thing as friendship between a guy and a girl eh?
I mean.. I have some guy friends, and from experience, those guys who have special interest are the one who can be a very good friend. They tend to be very nice and very kind, always willing to help all the time. And sometime, after you tell them that the both of you have no chance to be more than friends ever, they start to change and treat you differently.. ^___^That is, they treat you like how they treat other people... XD
Anyway, I still keep in touch with the guy number 2, that smooth flirty guy. We were still flirting since two weeks ago.. Is this a good thing? or should I just stop the whole thing while I can... I know it's kinda useless, but at the same time, it's kinda fun..
Oh well.. feel really tired today. >___ |

| continuation from last nite.. |
[Aug. 21st, 2002|01:38 pm] |
Thanks for all the comment at the last journal, people..^__^ And thanks for all the advice. I really appreciate it..
Anyway, I made some interesting discovery today. That yes, the smooth guy is a very flirty guy indeed. He's like the Asapin character from Kare kano, the guy who always try to add more girls to his harem collection. XD Hahaha.. And to think that I even almost fall for it. XD It was silly of me.. I should've seen it earlier.
Yeah.. what happened was.. He sms-ed me and asked whether I wanna chat etc etc. I was like.. hmm.. should I do that or not..? since one of my friend was online, I was like asking for her advice. And she was saying something like: just do it if you want, and have fun. DOn't take things seriously.. I don't know what happened, but after she said that, it was like Bang!! I saw everything in a clearer view. So yeah.. I chat with the guy at the end.. and after a while.. yep, this guy is a flirt, allrite.. !!!
About the other guy.. Actually, he confessed to me about one year ago. But I said I rather be friend and etc etc. We ended up being a close normal friend.. until recently. I don't know what happen, but yeah.. I guess things are starting to heat up a lil bit now.. I am wondering whether I should tell him that I can only see him as friends, and no more than that.. Or maybe I just should pretend that nothing's happening but trying to avoid seeing him that often.. But then.. I might be just paranoid about the whole thing O___o I don't understand you guys.. |

| To date or not to date.. |
[Aug. 20th, 2002|02:06 pm] |
Now that Cath mentioned it, I come to think about yesterday's nite... was it a date? Heh.. I'm not sure. Perhaps that guy would have thought so.. I know him since our first year in uni, and we've been friends since then. He is a very nice and sweet person, even brought me hot chicken porridge a few days ago when I caught that melbourne/moscow flu.. Sure, he's a very nice guy.. but I can only see him as a friend..no more.
Speaking about bf/gf relationship.. i'm kinda confused O__o Western culture is kinda different with Indo culture. For us, indos, I think it's allrite if a girl goes out with a guy alone, even though she doesn't like him.. or they are just plain, normal friends, and nothing more than friends. In here (Australia), once I ask one guy to go out for a lunch together, and he thought I was interested in him and was trying to ask him out. Well... the truth was I was just looking for a friend to accompany me to a restaurant.
Another issue.. I met this new guy who is a very smooth talker and like my friend put it: "a veteran at dating game." He's not that really good looking, but I do notice he really knows how to treat a girl. He has that kind of charm.. And yes, I find him interesting.. Oh noooo.. Fifi is now one of his victim then...... I'm not sure. Other friend suggested that I should never trust him ever.. XD but he doee seem like a nice person. Hmmm.. O___o
Oh well.. enough for rambling about this kind of stuff tonight then..
I should have draw more manga.. >__<
gah.. too much social life lately.. |

| Sydney AMP tower |
[Aug. 19th, 2002|01:08 pm] |
Just went back from Sydney AMP Tower. An old friend of mine invited me to have dinner there tonight. Well, the special occassion was supposed to be his birthday, that's why I felt kinda weird because he ended up paying for the whole dinner thingie. O___o including the photos! He's a very nice person, I should say...
Anyway, The Sydney Tower is cool, with great view of Sydney at night time !! Simply breathtaking. The Tower is rotating slowly, and it takes a while for me to get used to the movement. The food is ok. It's nice, but they don't have a wide range of variety. But I really had a great time tonite..
Argh.. my feet are killing me now.. must be because of those high heel shoes plus all the work in the bakery shop. Thank goodness I don't have to work again until next Wednesday..
btw, sometimes I feel kinda lucky to be working in a bakery shop. It sounds better than to say that I work in a fish/ vegetable shop XD XD, or in a butchery. Plus, working in a bakery shop don't really give you that bad odor.. well.. maybe just a lil smell of pastry. ^^
I'm thinking of buying a new, bigger monitor. Perhaps a 17 inch Sony flatron. Most of my friends said it's good. But I also heard that Dell has this special offer of a flat 17 inch LCS or something like that.. Anyway, need to check that out too..
On the less brighter side, I didn't go the church today because it was too packed we couldn't even go inside. It may sounds weird at first, but yeah.. today is our church bday anniversary, so they have this massive celebration by hiring the expensive NIDA theatre. The downside is.. it can only accomodate 650 people or so, and they should've known that the whole congregation is more than that. Anyway, yeah.. I was feeling a bit dissapointed from what happened today. I mean.. I wish they could just hire the usual Science theatre instead of that really fancy but tiny NIDa theatre. I really wanted to attend the service today, especially because I have been a slacker in doing my own quiet time lately... Sigh, it's ok then.. let bygone be bygone, there's nothing I can do to change it. I shouldn't have complained so much.
I better get back at my emails. There is one email I need to reply before tomorrow.. ^__^ |

Take the quiz at Angelique Corner.
SIgh...I'm not myself today. DOn't have any energy.. I lost all of my genki ness. I went to the GP today, and he told me that I caught the moscow cold. I didn't know the Russian have this kind of cold. Anyway, yeah.. it's not the best feeling in the world. :P My eyes are drowsy and heavy and I think I need sleep.. |

You're Nekoi Yuzuriha!
Either you consume a steady, constant diet of sugar, or you were born with energy to spare. People love to be around you because your cheerful attitude is contagious and they can’t help but smile at your boundless enthusiasm. You’re a little naive sometimes, but that’s not necessarily bad. Simply put, you’re cute. Make the most of it.
Which Dragon of Heaven are you?
Quiz by Kerianne
I never read X before. I just took the quiz for fun. I think Hope is rite.. XD She once mentioned that if I'm in X, I would be that character there, I think.. Nekoi something..

| First journal entry.. |
[Aug. 15th, 2002|12:29 pm] |
Yay, my first time to write on a blog, ever. ^__^ sounds really pathetic. Thank you so much Amel, for giving me the invitation code you join you all in the fun.
The downside is.. writing has never been my strongest point. I am so terribly lame at describing things using words. So please do bear with me.. >___<
uh.. what do you guys usually write about in the journal btw? O__o* blinks And do other people really read it?
Oh well, my life is pretty much back to normal after Melbourne Manifest 2002. Yeah. working again in the french pattiserrie shop, among all the cute little sugary sweet cakes. (I don't know whether they use lard too, Amel. ^__^).
Anyway, Melbourne Manifest was really fun. I had a good time there. Like what Amel said, there were many interesting and eye opening experiences, in terms of good or bad things. Those of you who stayed around until karaoke should know what I mean.. XD
Oh I've uploaded some of the photos here:
http://photos.yahoo.com/fifi_smile
in case you're interested.. XD
I'll add more soon. I think I should get a few extra photos from other people in a day or two.
Btw.. I catch cold.. >_< cough cough. |
