March Medley

What is a birthday to you? For me birthday is actually another day of my daily-full-of-grateful-life yet having loved ones around me :)

I have Calvin. I have family. I have friends. Thank You Father :)

Got surprised by Calvin at 12 am in the morning! Gosh, I almost hit him! :P Thank you for the unforgettable surprise: the sweetest I've ever had, thank you for the loveliest gift, thank you for the cup cake with heart-shaped flags, and thank you for being with me *kiss*

The birthday surprise series at the office. Thank you so much guys! Anyway, I got a Harvest Blueberry Cheesecake from my sister delivered to the office *hug*

This cute flat shoes are from my Honda mates. Love it and love the card too!

We had birthday dinner at La Rucolla, too bad the steaks are not as good as our expectation. Perhaps La Rucolla steaks are way too Italian, and don't really suit our Indonesian taste. Anyway, the place is homey-cozy, and there were a lot of foreigners!

 We got another dinner another day at kafe Pisa :D  
Outfit: Dorothy Perkins dress

We believe March is the Birthdays Month. We had dinner for Calvin's sister birthday party at Lung Yuan, Sheraton. I thought we were over dressed, but look at us: l o v e l y! *eyelashes* Outfit: Dorothy Perkins dress (again!^^)

Way to Write

I just checked my hotmail and found this in my draft. Guess I googled and saved it as a reminder to write a good  Application Letter someday. I think I should share it here, before it stinks in my draft email :P. Here it goes:

• Outline your skills and abilities that relate to the criterion you are addressing.

• Do not simply address the criterion by saying that you possess the required skills but highlight your skills, experiences and achievements. Describe how you utilise these skills and provide examples.

• Think broadly and diversely when addressing the criterion. For example: if the criterion relates to an employer seeking a person with good communication skills, think about the different forms of communication (in person, in writing, over the telephone and communicating with persons from different ethnic backgrounds/cultures, language barriers, non verbal communication skills etc).

• Make sure that your response is clear, succinct and concise. Remember, there is no need to impress by providing an overly complicated response that the employer is will have trouble interpreting.

• Use positive action words.

• Ensure that your response to each criterion is no longer than half a page.

• Run a spell check on your computer before anyone sees your application.

• Do a grammar review.

Simple Happiness

(Hahahaha, laughing out loud inside the car, on our way to Grand City Mall, Surabaya)

Me: "How simple is happiness for us..."

Him: "The difficult part is at the beginning.."

Me: "Hmm? What do you mean???"

Him: "The difficult part is at the beginning... Looking for someone to make you happy"

Me:  *speechless*

He Draws

He marked his bday date on my calendar!

"Mr. Bean"

'I can do magic!'

My nose?

I think this that girl looks more like Pucca the animation

Alert, alert!

Never let each other down

So, what were you doing on Feb 14? Mine was having a tiny candle light home-made-dinner at my home balcony. And yes, i was cooking! And the most important thing is: it was edible! No one was poisoned. Hahaha.

I also made a koala card for him. Why koala? Because koala always hugs tree like they never let each other down ;;) 

Stuffs to make the koala card: unused paper bag (I picked mama & Leon), scissor, pencil, and sewing kit.

I cut the paper, took off the bow and drew a heart-shaped pattern on the paper

Made a heart-shaped card sewn by hand through the pattern

TARAA! It was so simple to make it! B-)

At last, put the bow onto the card :D

Swing it on!

The very first dinner I've ever made: Sausage Fried Rice. The very first candle light dinner with him at home balcony :) :) :)
