5 Youtubers Should Be Checked Out

Aloha! I remember that I ever discussed about 7 bloggers should be checked out in my blog, yes they are all incredible and I still check out their blogs sometimes, but this time I'd like to post some of my favorite Youtubers.

I spend my time everyday at home so I admit that boredom always comes to me. I've done watching Game of Thrones up till Season 4 and Family Guy Season 13 (which makes me sad) and I have nothing to do after that. So I tried to check Youtube sometimes and watched some channels that were interesting for me and now those channels must be the first channel I watch whenever I open up Youtube.

It's a common thing even a popular thing to do among women to check out some beauty channels in Youtube. You may popular of Kiara Leswara and Sarah Ayu, two Indonesian females I'd love to check in Youtube. They both have a good taste in cosmetics and good camera setting. In my opinion, if you like to check a Youtube channel about beauty product, you get to check a popular beauty channel in your country. This is because most popular beauty Youtubers try to adjust the product and style which is known in their country. In the other side, you may not have difficulty in language if you try to check the Youtubers who use the same language as yours. Try to check their channels for make up and beauty tutorial here.

What I adore from these girls is they always tell their opinion and experience of using beauty products which is very needed. If you are looking for the best products that suit and fix in your skin, you need to search for the review and I think checking Youtube for some product review is recommended.

Next I have international Youtubers who is lovely and pretty, Jenn Im. I am not sure what nationality she has, I think she's Korean, but she currently lives in LA. She is such a lovely person and most of her videos are vlog ones. Have you heard about vlog? Well, vlog is a blend word for video and blog which you can guess it's a video about daily life.

 I think she is a talented person and creative ones. I can waste all day just to watch all of her videos because all of them are interesting. She is also down to earth kind of person and it just adds more positive sides of her. She also shares her relationship in some of her videos and I think her relationship with Ben is adorable. Type clothesencounters in Youtube and get to know her further.

The next is an American Youtuber, the lovely and pretty Rachel.Well, the first time I checked her channel I felt as if I was so lame to find out her channel just for these lately days. I mean, she has uploaded hundred of amazing videos and reached 6 million subscribers and I just known her TODAY haha (Yap I should check out Youtube more often to get to know world better).

 

She is also talented person and all of her videos have unique themes. Almost all of the themes are creative that she tries to always make a new inspiring story. When I watch her videos, I just like "omg it's true". She is talk-active kind of girl that sometimes I try to replay what she's saying because she talks so fast. She shares her relationship too with a guy called Isaac. Different with Jenn's relationship, I think Rachel's kind of relationship looks like mine which is the fun one. They love to laugh at each other, play games, and give each other pranks. Such a cute couple! Check out her channel at rclbeauty101.

The last channel is from Michelle Phan. Perhaps you've watched the famous Lady Gaga Bad Romance Look in Youtube by her. She's gifted by her make up talent. She has many make up tutorial videos and some vlogs. If you search for a weird and anti-mainstream make up look, you may check her channel now. 

From my point of view, she is a humble woman and lovely. I am pretty impressed with her talent in producing video, like the video above, which all the ideas are from her head. She also likes to draw and her drawings are pretty amazing. Her LDR story also amazes me. She shares her story with her boyfriend that they came from different part of the world but they could proof that they are meant to be together. I feel inspired somehow after watching her video with her boyfriend, I wish mine would be better than that :p

Well, I think that's all my post about 5 Youtubers that inspire me these days. They all are creative people and I hope they can amaze you too. You may check another excellent Youtubers such as Last Day Production from Indonesia and Draw My Life channel. See you xoxo.

The Perish

The deathly poison was stink and reek

Once sniff and your head went week

Silver metals were all in here

They said, “Step in and feel the fear”

The hell with goosebumps I walked in

Curious was greater than the chillin

Sterile white floor gave my feet cold

Icy draught stabed into the flesh that I tried to hold

There lying an embalmed sallow pale dead

With dark hair remained rigid and wet

I saw no breath came out from the nose

As the way I felt the loss

I thought it was just nightmare but reality said no. I remembered when u always smiled and laughed to every joke I said tho it wasn't funny at all. She was very sweet and cheerful, it just seemed there was nothing that could make her sad. And I believed till the last time we met, you left me with happiness in your face. We'll always love you. 

See you in another life, Sop 

Religion Talks

Guten abend, everyone :D

Hi, I hope you all guys fine today, because honestly I'm not. Recently, my body seems not really fit. Maybe because I go out too often and breath too much unhealthy toxin and carbon dioxide and cold air of nights. Beyond that, I hope you guys can stay healthy, because being sick is suck.

Okay, enough for the preamble. Let's get to the point. Remember on my last post when I wrote about my discussion with Germany's student last week? I promised you I would share that to you, so here I am.

Diversity is heard pretty and peace in some of people. But I just found out that some of people feel the contradiction. In fact, diversity seems so strange for them. That's what my friends from Germany feel. 

In Indonesia, we have adjusted with differences of background, ethnic, tribe, and religion. It's all because of our ideology that based on Pancasila and Bhineka Tunggal Ika. That ideology succeeds to bound us together, unites us as Indonesian people. We care about our diversity, but we don't take it as the problem our nation has. Nonetheless, we do take it as the quality and identity as Indonesian people.

In that discussion, mostly my friends asked us (I was with some of my friends) how to live among of those people who have different background of religion with us. In this case, I and my friends are all Buddhists and my friends from Germany are all Christians. They are about going to be nuns and pastors and learning Theology. 

My answer was because of the reasons I've written above. Then, they also asked if the situation where we are living now (Indonesia) with that tittle of the Biggest Muslim's Country in the world affects our faith or not.

If you (whoever you are who is reading this now) have a deep believe of your faith now, you must answer that question with your head shaking, just like me. Though there are still several problems that offend some religions in Indonesia, I think it's just a common one. Just like having a discussion group, for instance. It's almost impossible for all of the members to have a same opinion. There must be one or two people who have different opinions. And what we should do about it? Yes, accept that difference and find how to figure it out. In the case of that question, what we (me and my friends) do to face that problem is just keep silent. Buddha once said, just keep silent, listen, and you will understand.

After their time asking question had ended, that was our time to ask. Because they were all keep busy with their dinner (we cooked them Nasi Goreng and they liked it), I asked for Miss Claudia for a question.

"Miss, I wonder something. You know that news about the attack of terrorist -who is believe the member of ISIS- in Paris of a magazine office few months ago. I just wonder, are you guys as Germany people feel threatened with that attack? And what your government do to protect their citizen from that kind of terrorism?"

More or less my question was like that. Then Miss Claudia replied with a surprising answer. Some Germany folks have done some movements against ISIS. In fact, their rights to acknowledge more about someone or something that related to ISIS is limited. Some parts of the land are also forbidden to be visited. That's all what government can do to protect their people. As for Germany people, they protect themselves by keeping their religion or faith as their secret. It's better to interact and socialize with people without knowing what their religions are. 

Talking about ISIS, I follow some news about them. In addition, Indonesia also becomes their target to expand their politic, religion, and territorial. That also frightens me sometimes, but I believe Indonesia will remain the same. I also hope that whoever you are, you will not be hypnotized or effected by that wrong ideology of ISIS. I know you'll stand in a right path. I know you better than that. 

After having that discussion, I feel so much grateful living in Indonesia. I know that Indonesia is the only country in the world that stands on Pancasila and Bhineka Tunggal Ika, which purely came from the elderly, our ancestors, based on our culture. I'm also amazed with my own country. How come that our country -which has so many islands and separated by oceans- can bound so many kind of different background people under those ideologies? That's what we should be proud of and we should keep until the next generation comes. 

For you who have the same thoughts as my friends for Germany before, please be open minded. Take diversity as something pretty and something that can power up your identity instead of lose it. If you can respect one another, I believe you can live in such a peace of life, too. 

That's all for tonight. Cherio :))

Special Visitor

Holla!

Last week, I got a visitor. Guess who? Yup! My bestfriend Armina Bionita hihi. We've been like (almost) 5 months didn't see each other and finally met up in Jogja yeay!

Sadly we just met in a day huhu. We didn't go anywhere cause it was raining. But anyway, it all was fun. I'll see you soon Ata! Hopefully in Bandung, hihi ^^ (Place: Pendopo Ndalem, Yogyakarta)

Seek For Me?

Holla!!

Long time no see, miss me a lot huh? *hug*

Well, first of all, HAPPY NEW YEAR! Wish you all had a great new year's eve :)

I have so many things to share about, but it just like... I dunno where to start, haha. Now it's raining outside, I''m sitting in a chair, try to steal the campus' wifi, and thinking about the rest time of my holiday. I spent so many great things on this epic city, Yogyakarta, and it was all amazing! 

Anyway, I want to say thank you to 2013, I really did had so much fun on you. The freshmen year was flawless, I learned many experiences from the subjects (I have 12 subjects for the first semester!), my friends are great, I also joined a documentary movie making project, the lecturers are so nice, and anything else I don't mention here is also lovely. Mostly, when it's time on leisure time, I spend it on walking in Malioboro or Alun-Alun Kidul, or just have a jogging in UGM, or even try any strange food that I never tried before. 

It's like it has been a century I've stopped writing till I don't know how to do it anymore. On the other hand, I want to say that I feel blessed to be here in Yogyakarta. In fact, I feel so lucky. Time has gone so damn fast, it kills many beautiful moments till I couldn't capture it and remember it just for a little. Thank you for all people who have been coloring my life in 2013. I can't mention you all one by one, but this memory still exists. A billion thanks won't be enough to describe how happy I am today. So whenever you are, people, I hope you feel happy, just like me. 

Well, I think I'm out of words now. Here are some beautiful moments of mine. 

Or you can see all my update's picture on my INSTAGRAM. Have a happy holiday everyone! Cherioo!

Another Dimension

Untuk post yang ini pake bahasa Indonesia aja yaa. ;)

Well, udah mau sebulan aja gue menetap di kota cantik, Yogyakarta. Udah berbagai kegiatan juga yang gue lewati dan tentunya, ketemu banyak temen baru! Yeay!

Waktu gue gak banyak nih (karena gue lagi numpang wifi di cafe mahal dan cuma mesen snack. Gak lucu kan klo tetep ngewifi tapi snacknya udah habis), jadi singkat aja ya.

Gue gak bisa ngenalin satu persatu temen-temen baru gue disini karena mereka itu banyaaaaak banget! Dan uniknya, mereka dari berbagai pelosok negeri. Ada yang dari Sulawesi, Jambi, Papua, Kalimantan, Nusa Tenggara Timur, banyak deh. 

Nah, dua minggu belakangan ini gue barusan mengikuti serangkaian kegiatan INSADHA 2013 dan juga INAGURASI (itu istilah ospek di Universitas Sanata Dharma) dan itu kereeeeeeennn abis! 

Kami dibagi 22 kelompok, dan gue masuk dalam kelompok 6. Kelompok 6 dibagi dua lagi, menjadi Gelombang 1 dan Gelombang 2, dan gue masuk di Gelombang 1. Tiap-tiap gelombang terdiri dari 50 orang. Nah, coba hitung, satu kelompok ada 100 orang dikali 22 kelompok. Berarti ada.... lo itung sendiri deh ya.  INSADHA berlangsung selama tiga hari, dimulai dari pukul 7.00 hingga pukul 4.00 sore. Sedangkan INAGURASI berlangsung dari pukul 6.30 pagi hinggal 10.00 malam.

Awal masuk sih agak, weird, mungkin karena belum kenal satu sama lain, jadi asyiknya belum terasa. Tapi setelah tiga hari INSADHA berlalu, kami jadi tambah deket.

Nah selama tiga hari itu kami dikenalin sama Rektor, Wakil Rektor, Ketua Insadha, Presiden Bem, kakak-kakak Siesen, kakak-kakak Dampok (pendamping kelompok), dan kakak-kakak panitia lainnya yang charming-charming semua, haha. Melakukan refleksi di pagi hari, bermain beberapa permainan yang menguji kekompakan, makan siang bareng-bareng, nonton pertunjukan-pertunjukan seru dari kakak-kakak Siesen, dan tentunya berjingle riaaa!! 

Nah, ada beberapa hal yang gue suka dari Universitas Sanata Dharma (USD) ini. Yang pertama, USD mengajarkan kita untuk be our selves. Kita diajarkan untuk mengeluarkan segala keunikan yang ada dalam diri kita, berinovasi dengan keunikan kita sendiri, dan berani tampil. Gak peduli darimana lo berasal, agama lo apa, suku lo apa, yang penting kita satu, bagian dari USD :)

Dan selama INSADHA gak ada yang namanya perploncoan-perploncoan yang gue rasain saat MOS SMA dulu. Gak ada sama sekali. Yang ada cuma satu: FUN. Asik banget deh pokoknya.

Dihari pertama gue sempat kena hukuman tuh gara-gara memakai tas jalan  instead of ransel. Tapi gue juga gak salah, karena saat daftar ulang, gak ada yang bilang kalo harus memakai ransel. Bukan gue aja yang kena, tapi banyak juga cewek-cewek lain yang punya masalah yang sama. Tapi hukumannya juga gak berat sih, cuma disuruh nge-review apa aja yang kita lakukan di hari pertama dan diketik di hvs. jadi ya, terima-terima aja.

Dihari terakhir, saat INAGURASI, gue juga sempet kena masalah. Tapi gak parah-parah amat. Gue lupa bawa almamater! Dan saat itu lima menit lagi acaranya dimulai. Awalnya tuh gue udah sampe kampus, tapi pas ditanya temen gue soal almamater, gue langsung panik. Untungnya dikasih izin sama kk Handoko, Ketua Insadha untuk balik ke kosan ngambil almamater. Dan untungnya kosan gue deket. Ya, semput juga sih disuruh lari-lari gitu. Mana diliatin pula. Asli, memalukan! Haha.

Kami juga melakukan berbagai latihan untuk malam Inagurasi. Banyak banget ide-ide yang disampaikan hingga finally, kami memutuskan untuk bermusikalisai puisi dan ada drama bisunya juga dikit. Gue masuk dalam kelompok paduan suara. Kami menyanyikan lagu Indonesia Jaya bareng-bareng dengan diselingi puisi dan adegan orang-orang judi, dugem, narkoba, tawuran, korupsi, ya hal-hal yang gak baik lah di era kita ini. 

Masalahnya, ternyata kami harus diseleksi lagi untuk manggung di pentas. Dari 22 kelompok akan dipilih 4 kelompok yang paling bagus. Harapannya sih besar untuk maju, tapi ternyata.... KAMI BENERAN MANGGUNG! Bangga banget deh pokoknya! Maju dihadapan 2000-sekian maba dan ratusan panitia. Deg-degan, seneng, campur aduk deh. Puas banget, ternyata gak sia-sia latihannya. Good job guys! :D

Yang paling seru itu, pastinya saat Jingle Insadha dooong! Jingle itu kita nyanyi sekaligus dance, jadi kayak flashmob bareng-bareng gitu. Abis-abisan kerennya! Dan ketagihan deh, sampe sekarang gue pengen nambah lagi berjinglenya. Haha. 

Terus apalagi ya? Humm, pokoknya makasi banget banget deh buat panitia INSADHA, kakak-kakak SIESEN, kakak-kakak DAMPOK, specially buat kak Riris dan kak Pras alias Habibie dan Ainun yang udah sabaaaar banget dan setia mendampingi kita. Incredible work, you're all guys awesomeee!

Dan inilah dokumentasi gue selama INSADHA. Sayang banget pas INAGURASI gak bawa kamera, berat sih :(. Untuk dokumentasi foto-foto gue, bisa dilihat di instagram gue ya: deviwee :)

Ketemu kembarannya Yolanda! (namanya Friska) Dari wajah hingga sifat mirip! *ngucap*
