HOLIDAY MAY BE POSTPONED?

So things have been pretty chill lately now that I have completed my course.
I got to do things i wanted to do for quite sometime now.
TO BE A COMPLETE USELESS PERSON!
that stays up till 6 in the morning and wake up at 4 in the evening:p! OH! and I also get to skype with Richard more now:).


The DJ booth and also where the models come out and in from the stairs that is on the left and right behind the screens.



Taken before the show started, it was packed by the time the show began.

Recently I attended an event that was organized by my uni. The venue was was actually really good.
there was a fashion show that was showing each 3rd year student's collection. The theme for this year was Archipelago.

[3rd year's work from different students]

















I must say the sewing looked really neat. And some of the designs were really pretty too:)! And the Models?
OH MA LORRRRRD.
there were really good looking international male & female models.
OH! I saw a jacket as well which was neon green and had teeth around the hood:D!
It's from one of the students collection called "Attack of the Mutated Nu Rave Reptile".
I feel that going to the fashion show did me some good because it made me see how it's going to be like for my 3rd year.
It inspired me.
I thought it's amazing how these student came into ESMOD and graduate with producing their own collection as well.
I'm pretty excited for when my turn comes:), well yet a little scared:s.



After the show, Nakita, Martha & I went to Grand Indonesia Mall to grab some dinner in this restaurant/Bar called Social House.
The food? Epic.
Specially the steak which Nakita Ordered where as I ordered the "Fettuccine & Lamb Ragout" which was also damn good, *drools*.



As for desert I wanted an apple crumble but they were out of it so settled for apple pie.
Which not only looked good but tasted good too:)

UGH, I'm also pretty worried about my VISA cause maybe it might keep me here in Jakarta for about 3 more weeks.
By the time I Get back to KK everyone will be gone or maybe have only a few days left. ahhhhh, this Visa crap is screwing up my holiday plans.
I'm gonna miss a whole lot of stuff.
GAHHHHHHHHH! Mannnnnn, why can't getting my VISA done only takes 2 days:(?!
And Richard is going to come back this Saturday which is making me more agitated.
I'm going to try my best to get this matter sorted.
Cause if there is no KK and my friends in it then I'm never going to get the holiday I've been craving for months now:/.
I CRAVE BLISS IN KK WITH FRIENDS SOON, is that too much to ask for>:/?

Job training, Birds?

I reckon job training went well:)

even though i felt completely useless during the first week
but all in all I enjoyed working there.

I actually miss working now that I'm back at ESMOD, everything is always in a rush.
When I was working at Jeffry's, everything was so chilled out.
Oh! and there was always a nice restaurant to go to!
I had to help Jeffry make some stuff actually, mostly stuff that involves synthetic leather.
The design he came up with for this event is called the BWA(British Woman Association) was really cool.
The concept of it was what a dominatrix would wear.

Most of the designs involved synthetic leather cut into fringes and thats where I come in:).
I had to make the front part of a :

• Dress
• Blouse
• Pants

This took me 2 weeks, and at the end of it my fingers were totally chapped.
During those 2 weeks there was no way I could get by a day without pricking myself with a needle and bleeding after that.
Luckily, the last week I had there, I got to do computer duty.
Which mostly involved updating the designer's social website and making technical sheets, OH! and photo shopping too.

Well, it wasn't all work and no play, Lucky for me I had 2 of my classmates with me to work with at Jeffy's :p.


This is what we do to the designer's mannequin when he's out:p.


Nakita with a Jilbab


Cum face, ahahahaha.


I had no idea what was Nakita and Archy doing.


Us sewing buttons on shirts


IM DA BAUS>:).

On our last day, the three of us stayed until 9 instead of 5 because we wanted to and we also decided to help out on the wipe out sale.
I got a jacket for myself for a reasonable price.
70% discount!
wooooooo!
Before we left we gave Jeffry a Little present, It's not much.. but we gave some thought to it.
We gave him a packet of mechanical pencils and an eraser cause he's always borrowing mine, a small container of pretty colourful needles and a black mole skin note book as a thank you gift for him having us as his interns.
If your into architectural designs, then you'd love him.
Oh! by the way, his website is actually www.jeffrytan.com.
Go check it out, Most of his stuff is really nice.




As for my weekend, I spent it on bird watching and visiting historical islands.
We visited an island where they used to keep the diseased and prisoners.
there was a graveyard on the island itself, and on of the people buried there died only at 10 years old because of the disease, it's sad really:/.
I had a nice time even though my nieces and I got chased by a swarm of insects:).
Because at the end of the trip I manged to get a bit of a tan while sleeping on the boat..
oh...and sunburn too, ouch!

Job? what is this "job"?

It's been quite a while since I've blogged, been a very busy person and the lecturers just don't understand the term "enough".
Job training for me starts tomorrow, and I feel very fortunate to work with a well known Indonesian designer called Jeffrey Tan.
hahahah, which of course have same name as my older brother:P.
but anyway, Jeffrey has a taste in clothing that has this international feel, I would put down his site's URL except it's currently undergoing construction.
but here it is anyway www.jeffreytan.com
He used to study in ESMOD as well, and was classmates with my Fashion Design lecturer which was how I found out about him.
He appeared in Jakarta fashion week countless of times and his designs are mainly architectural with lots of folds.
I'm actually pretty scared of job training tomorrow, cause Jeffrey said he wants Nakita and I to translate his designs into pattern during the interview.
which of course caused me to start screaming in my head:|.
well, we are there as interns so I'm guessing, well hoping, that he'll teach us too.
So I'm just trying to chill out and not fuss about it.
Haha, well I guess job training did kind of started for Nakita & I yesterday cause we had to act as Jeffrey's assistant in a movie called "fashion satu hari". we have two scenes in the movie which was in a magazine office building and in Jeffrey's shop, I hope I look good in it:p.
but anyway, the cool part was that we got to meet people who worked in magazines like Marie claire Jakarta, Elle Jakarta, rising singers and other people who I can't remember:p.
but it was still nice:p
And if you wondering if I have any lines then no I don't:p, but it was still a good experience to be in a movie even though I was an extra.
and + my name would appear in the credits:p.

On to another point,
you know how we're suppose to be working in job training and all
well, instead of concentrating on just that, we need to do assignments too!
lots of them in fact!
I'd probably just sit myself down one of these days and do all my assignments.
well I've been saying that since yesterday morning but so far it hasn't happen yet.
and here I am blogging in Nakita's house!
Man I hate procrastination.
