Sometimes humans are out of control and they speak what they don't mean to. Everyone had that moment of speaking when they were angry and regretted the speech they made afterwards. It can happen within ourselves and our parents, siblings, friends and lovers. We might expect people to handle us at our worst, but have you ever thought that we might be the only one left to hold ourselves that are full of emotion? At times, we blame other people too much to the point that we can't see the truth anymore. Be wise, reflect on ourselves, and learn to let go.
The mouth can speak both of life and death, love and hate, curse and blessing.
Loving my asymmetrical peplum top from TB Dress, and not to mention my comfortable light-denim jeans from Hoodboyz UK.

I used to live as a people-pleaser. It is difficult for me to say no when somebody asked for a help. But I started to realize that it was unhealthy.
Even though I believe in Karma, I don't think it works that way. You reap what you sow only applies if all of the parties involved are HAPPY.
When you help someone but you feel uneasy or it feels like you are being forced, then it just doesn't work. You can't stop thinking about when will things end - when it will never end unless you realize that you are not spreading love, but hatred. Hatred is what you sow, and you will not get anything back.
The first time they ask for help, they feel grateful. For the second time, they feel happy. The third time, they feel okay. And for the next consecutive time, they have considered it as a habit. They think they have the power to make things feel the same. And from that time onwards, whenever they say thank you, it is not a form of appreciation and gratefulness; it is simply a routine.
Learn to say no when you can't deal with the hardship. People who love you for who you are and truly want you to be around them are those who don't take benefit of what you have, but they are those people who think what they can give for you.
And they are truly the best kind of people who make you sincerely happy.
Don't you love my midi skirt from LO by Lovita Hilman? The print is super pretty right? I can imagine myself wearing heaps of outfit using the skirt.

Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia. The citizen understands well that there are a lot of diversities among the people here. Behind those skyscraper buildings and people who shop as if tomorrow never comes, there are still a lot of people who needs shelter, a lot of people whose rights have been taken away, a lot of talents that are not recognized because of discrimination, and the list never ends. It looks simple, but has it come to your mind that it might be one of the reasons why Indonesia is still a developing country? Do you expect a better Jakarta, or exactly, Indonesia? I do.
Truthfully saying, during the legislative election a few weeks ago, I did not use my right to vote; I had also decided not to vote either during the presidential election. Though recently, some news have weakened my knees and I realized that my inner heart has been expecting a huge change all along. Thus on the upcoming 9th July 2014, I have made up my mind to vote. For a brighter Indonesia amen.
Dear fellow Indonesians, if it is not us, then who else? If it is not now, then when?

When we were a kid, we used to say, "I want to marry a Prince who carries a white horse and lives in a castle." But when the reality starts to kick in as we get older, we realize we don't need all that. In fact, from the very first time, we never need that. It was just Disney and all its movies that stereotype every man to have to look that way.
In reality, we fall for those who love us sincerely. No matter how do they look like and where do they come from, we fall anyway.
Don't you love this Butterfly Collar Shirt and Flouncing Shorts? I got the two from Dress Lily, they are really pretty and make a perfect combination :)

When someone says that money can't buy happiness, it is probably the most appropriate phrase ever. It is true that money can buy almost everything, but that almost, is most of the time, just a temporary happiness. Other than that, is time, love, family, and friendship that you can never get back. You can never buy the feeling that revolves around them. You can't bring the deceased to life, you can't change someone's heart, you can't remove someone's memory, and you can never turn back time.
It has always been better to lay in the arms of someone you love rather than to hold a bunch of shopping bags.
It has been a long time since the last time you saw me using a pair of boots on the blog, and here it goes, a pair from Pretty For Less! This studded-accent booties are so comfortable, I walked on it for 7 hours.. When good materials talk, you see.

Life doesn't always go as what you planned or as what you thought. In every stage of life, you need to surpass a seemingly endless obstacle. Be it in friends, love life, work, or family.
People you enjoy hanging out with talks behind your back, people you can't live without can live without you, what you enjoy doing doesn't always give you benefit, people you wholeheartedly trust betray you, and the list goes on.
It makes life seems difficult, doesn't it? But, believe me, keep doing and planting good deeds because there is 1 person who puts all His belief on you, who sticks with you throughout the whole process, and He is God.
No matter what religion you carry, I believe you deserve love. I believe you will receive more when you started giving.
You guys might have known that I'm a massive fan of nail-art. For those who asked, I never did them by myself because I can't really draw properly.
A week ago, De Fleur Nail Art contacted me that she would do my nails. Without further ado, I definitely said yes! Starting from IDR 40.000, they serve by appointment or they can also create fake nails. Check out De Fleur Nail Art for more beautiful creation!
