OUTFIT #2 : Preppy, Real Madrid + Alt-J!


At one job interview...
Him: Why do you wanna be a fashion stylist?
Me: Because I love fashion, that's the one thing that makes me happy.
Him: But you have absolutely no experience in this field before.
Me: Yes, but I love fashion and am willing to learn.
Him: But you were a writer, right?
Me: I was. (I still am.)
Him: Okay, if you wanna be a stylist, explain your style.
Me: (Keep thinking and thinking, trying to find the right word to explain my absurdness.)...Hmmmmmm...Preppy, I guess.


Sighhhhh...such a disappointing answer. Again, I'm bad at explaining myself. Terrible moment when you felt like passion wasn't enough to get you a job you want.

They Really Fought To The Death..So Proud!!


Always UNITED! Hala Madrid!

Mourinho

"My men gave a very good performance."

Casillas
"We deserved much more; we gave a ten out of ten performance and we're proud to be Madridistas"
"I believe everyone watches these games and we had chances to score from the first second of play. They were lucky to score in five minutes. We played our game and stood our ground... We gave a ten out of ten performance and we're proud to be Madridistas. I'm sad but also happy because we proved to be superior."

"We shouldn't think back on last week and instead stick to today's work. Last week, people were saying Barcelona were three steps above us, but today they'll say we're equal. Every match is a world in its own. This always changes."

"We've left a championship we won last year and we must focus on others. Some refereeing decisions were detrimental to us. It's true we've said it was impossible to win here because there are always small details that make it so."
Pepe
"We had a great sense of sacrifice and feel proud because we proved we are a united group of players and played better than Barcelona. I defend my team and we'll make Madridistas proud. The fans must feel proud of the players. We'll fight to earn that."

Granero
"We should be satisfied. We should have won because we were better. I think we were unlucky, but we did a very good job."

CASILLAS: We're going to fight to the death


Real Madrid captains Iker Casillas believe the team is capable of turning the Copa del Rey tie with Barcelona around tomorrow at the Camp Nou. He is  aware that a Real Madrid trademark is never giving up and wished to express this to supporters in an interview with the club's official media.  
(Alberto Navarro / Translation by Michael J. O'Donnell)


"Before our league match against Athletic Bilbao our minds were set only on La Liga. On Monday, upon arriving at Valdebebas, we looked each other in the face and said we had to grind our teeth because the match against Barcelona won't be easy, but that we had to know we could win the tie. That's our intention. We'll travel to Barcelona thinking exclusively about reaching the next round of the Copa del Rey."

"We've all discussed it. Every player wants to participate in these great games. Real Madrid will give a good performance. We just have to showcase a winning mentality and believe we can turn the tie around despite how things were complicated for us in the first leg."

"I think I haven't seen such a great atmosphere on the team for a very long time. The atmosphere on the team is pleasant and excellent. Spirits are high. This is a young and healthy group of players. There is no reason to worry."

"The lead we have over Barcelona in the league means we're doing a good job in that competition and that we deserve to be leaders and defend the top spot of the table. We know all of our opponents will try their best against us, so we must be more united than ever before to win those games one by one."

"We believe tomorrow's match will be excellent. We want fans to be proud of Real Madrid and we want them to know we'll go to Barcelona thinking we can reach the next round. The players chosen by the coach will fight to the death to win the tie, regardless of who they are."

What..whaaat???!!

Gaji Pertama Itu Mau Diapakan?


Sebelumnya, untuk meng-update postingan kemaren.
Yah, Madrid akhirnya kalah lagi dari Barcelona.
Kali ini skornya tipis, 1-2.
I'm trying to get over it real fast right now.
Hahaha.

Seharian ini di kantor kayanya bakalan kebanyakan bengongnya.
Deadline hampir selesai semua.
Tinggal satu perkara.
Itu pun tinggal nunggu bahan dan insyaallah ga harus mikir.
Nyehehe.
Jadi, bosen juga bengang-bengong di depan kompi.

Walhasil, saya mulai berkhayal saja.
Seandainya saya nanti dapet gaji pertama, akan saya apakan dia?
Saya sih pengennya ngebiri kucing dirumah.
Langsung dioperasi supaya ga hamil2 lagi, sesuai anjuran dokter hewan.
Tapi, biayanya bisa sampe 1,4 juta.
Hadeeuh.
Mahal eeuy.

Saya juga sebenernya pengen melampiaskan hasrat belanja saya.
Pengen beli baju gitu.
Kan kebetulan di kantor ga ada kewajiban pake baju rapi.
Jadi, bisa lebih bebas deh beli baju yang disuka, kaya jaman kuliah ajaa.

Tapi, apa daya.
Si nyokap bilang gini:
"Kamu, baru mau dapet gaji pertama aja, udah mau foya-foya. Ntar dulu!"
Iya deh nyokaap.
Anakmu ini bakal nahan dahaga belanjanya. At least for a while.
Jadilah akhirnya saya berselancar di dunia maya saja.
Berkhayal ingin beli ini itu.

So, this is my dream wish list:


 Isn't she sexy? Yumm...
Courtesy: ^^

Courtesy: ^^

 I just want the WHOLE look. Hahaha.
Courtesy: ^^

This piza necklace. Oh dear...oh dear... 
Courtesy: ^^

 Courtesy: ^^


Courtesy: ^^

Yah, namanya juga wish list. Bolehlah ngayal dikit.
Walaupun kecil kemungkinan bisa terwujud.
Haaah, seandainya gaji pertama saya itu 2 milliar (sama kaya biaya renovasi WC anggota DPR).
Haaah, seandainya saya digaji per minggu layaknya pemain sepak bola itu.
Haaah, seandainya.

Inilah seninya berkhayal.

Ketika El Clasico Datang Lagi


Tahun baru, semangat baru, tapi masih tradisi lama.
Yup, tradisi yang udah beribu-ribu taun, *mulai lebay*, bertaun-taun udah selalu gw lakukan.
Apa itu???
Jeeng..jeeeng...jeeeng...jeeeng..
Menonton pertandingan antara Real Madrid vs Barcelona.
Atau yang lebih populer disebut el clasico.

Sebagai Madridista sejati, saya selalu penasaran untuk menyaksikan el clasico.
Padahal, kalo dihitung-hitung, sejak dari awal saya suka Real Madrid, entah sudah berapa jilid el clasico yang saya tonton.
Rasanya seperti ibu-ibu yang dengan setia menonton sinetron Cinta Fitri meski sampai ke season 100 pun.

Masih ingat rasanya, ketika dulu kami, para Madridista, selalu santai ketika menyaksikan pertandingan melawan Barcelona.
Ya, dulu Madrid memang sempat merasakan era superioritas di atas klub Catalan itu.
Rasanya, meski pertandingan sudah pasti akan berjalan sengit, namun ujung-ujungnya Madrid pasti menang.

Tapi, sudah beberapa tahun terakhir ini, kami, oh mungkin lebih tepatnya saya, selalu was-was ketika mereka harus berhadapan kembali dengan Barcelona.
Was-was bukan karena takut kalah tetapi was-was karena mereka sering berkelahi dan ujung-ujungnya pemain Madrid ada yang kena kartu merah.
Was-was karena pemain Barcelona sering jatuh dan mengerang kesakitan di lapangan yang ujungnya memantik emosi pemain Madrid.
Padahal, kalo menurut saya sih, cuekin aja.
Jangan terbawa emosi dan drama yang diusung tim lawan.
Tapi, mungkin susah juga kalo sudah terbawa suasana dan adrenalin pertandingan.
Bawaannya emosiiii terus.

Akhir-akhir ini, Madrid juga sering kalah dengan skor telak, entah itu 5-0, 6-2, atau 3-1.
Jadi, kadang kesel rasanya melihat gawang mereka kebobolan sebegitu banyak.
Sebenarnya sih, sisi positif dari kalah dengan skor telak itu tetep ada.
Ya, Iker Casillas semakin sering disorot kamera.
Hahaha.
Dengan tampang nestapa tentunya.

Mungkin karena sering kalah dengan skor telak itulah, para pemain jadi punya beban psikologis *di bawah sadar* setiap akan melawan Barca.
Padahal, kalo diukur dari kemampuan dan skill, Madrid tentu tidak kalah.
Perasaan inferior karena sering kalah ini mungkin yang jadi penyebab mereka sering memble dalam beberapa kesempatan terakhir.
Pemikiran ini mungkin belum tentu benar dan hanya ide gila saya saja.
Tapi, memang kelihatannya, mental pemain Madrid sering drop jika Barcelona sudah mencetak gol ke gawang mereka.
Padahal, Real Madrid punya sejarah comeback yang brilian di jagat sepak bola.
Lihat saja, yang teranyar, bagaimana mereka begitu semangat mengejar ketertinggalan dari Mallorca akhir pekan lalu.

Nah, ini sebenarnya PR buat Mr. Special One.
Mungkin bukan hanya strategi yang harus diracik dengan baik, tapi juga sokongan mental dan psikologis untuk pemain.
Seluruh ofisial tim mungkin juga harus mulai bersikap lebih tenang dari para pemain di lapangan, terutama ketika terjadi ribut-ribut di tengah pertandingan.
Ketenangan itu tentu sedikit banyak akan membantu para pemain, yang emosinya sedang naik, untuk lebih mengontrol sikap dan amarah mereka.

Kalo saya sebagai fans sih tentu akan selalu mendukung El Real dalam kondisi apapun.
Baik itu kalah ataupun menang.

Jadi, untuk el clasico edisi kali ini, saya sudah siap kalah.
Tapi...
Saya lebih siap lagi untuk menang.( ^_________~)
Kita lihat hasilnya Kamis nanti.

Hala Madrid!

Crying Like A Baby?

"Football is a game of men. Whenever you play against Barcelona, whenever you touch them, they are on the floor crying like a baby."


~ Emmanuel Adebayor

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Finally, I feel comfortable enough to say what's going on in my mind after the nasty lost game against Barcelona a few days back.
Yes, I don't think that was cool when Jose Mourinho talked back to the linesman.
Yes, it was inappropriate when the fans entered or threw something to the field.
But, it wasn't fair AT ALL when Pepe got a red card.
You see, Pepe did committed a foul.
But did he deserve a red card?
I don't think so.
The red card changed everything.
The strategy, the tactics, the mental, emotion, everything.

But, well, it is what it is.
We couldn't change what's happened in that game.
So, I think Real Madrid should accept these uncool condition like AN ADULT and not CRYING LIKE A BABY.
We will win when it's the right time.
And we will win fair, like a true man.

I am a full time madridista. So, if you read this and don't agree with my opinion, go ahead.
Find another blog who praise your team.
But me, I don't think I speak just for myself.
I speak with prove.
And I speak just like many people think about the game.


Mathematically, Barcelona is just one step ahead to reach the final.
But still, we have 90 mins. to play like a man.
There is no point of giving up.
Just play the best and no matter what happen I will always become a madridista.
Hala Madrid!

REAL(ly) Big Win + Criminal Minds Pray For Japan

Real Madrid got an amazing result in the quarter final match against Tottenham Hotspurs yesterday in Bernabeu.
They now, are looking ahead to their first Champions League semifinal ever in 7 years.
Hopefully, it will happen.

Here is the highlights of the match:




And, the cast of Criminal Minds (one of my favorite show) give pray for people in Japan.
Love when MGG said "Konichiwa" and "Nihon Daisuki". ^^



By the way, I think I will continue putting up some of my favorite and also random video for a while now.
Yes, until I can manage to fix my lovely camera.
Yes, that broken little camera of mine.

Unai Casillas


If you don't know yet, but I'm sure you have already know,
Unai is the younger brother of Iker Casillas.
Recently, I just got curious with him.
It's been a long time since I saw him in these photos.

Source: ^, ^

I'm sure he is growing up fine.
But, I just want to know what's going on with his life.
I mean he is more than just an 'Iker Casillas' successor, right?

Finally, I found an amazing interview with Unai here.
From there I know that he does become a footballer.
Not a goallie like his brother, but a midfielder.
In a club called CD Móstoles.
They currently play in the third division.

He also takes some classes in university.
I think he is majoring in economy or something.
So, he said he took classes in the morning and then go to the training in the afternoon.
How awesome is that?
Smart boy with a smart choice.
If you can do both, porque no, huh?

I think Unai has showed us how he is able to not living in his brother's shadow.
I mean a lot of siblings have some troubles if the other one is more successful.
People love to compare them, right?

So, with Unai, I can see he is enjoying his life and take his own choice in career and education.
He doesn't care if he can play in primera division or not.
He is just enjoying every moment of it.

From the interview, I sense he is a total fun guy too.
Maybe Unai is the joker in the family and Iker is the mature one.
Haha.

So, here are some pictures of Unai, Iker, and the family.

Iker with Unai and cousin in Austria.

Unai is a fan of Barcelona.

Never seen this before, Unai with his brother in the same car.

Unai, the joker.

I saw this Unai in a video before, right when he came to support his brother in World Cup 2010.

Unai plays for CD Mostoles.

The Casillas, minus Iker, in Austria.

School, Watching, Playing


It's been raining all month long here in Indonesia.
At least in my place.
Small place called Bojong.
Hahaha.
It will be very cold in the morning, then very hot in the middle of the day.
And the weather will be back to cold at night.
Well, I live in a tropical country for my whole life.
So, I don't really get along with cold weather. (nor hot weather, ^____~)
So, that's why I often use cardigans or jacket or long sleeves top recently.

So, here are things I did yesterday.
  • Went to campus with full warm wardrobe.

DETAILS:
Red Bowler Hat>>
Somewhere in Depok, Ruffle Shirt>> Somewhere in Depok, Cardigans>> Cheap Stuff, Pants>> Mum's, Brown Wedges>> Centro, Bag>> Vintage, Glasses>> Vintage


  • Went home and played around with Noni.
  • Watched They Kiss Again (It Started With A Kiss 2 Taiwanese Version)
I am kindda obsessed with the couple, Ariel Lin and Joe Cheng. I think they really have a great chemistry. Well, people said to me that the Japanese version or the Korean version is better. I don't know. I think I love this version better. It's funny and lovable. And the family interaction, uuh, sooo funny and natural. So, I recommend you to watch this Taiwanese version. You will not regret it! Oh, you better watch the 1st season first, to know how hard Xiang Qin tries to win Zhi Su's heart.

  • Watched Indonesia National Team beat Philippines 1-0.
  • Watched "Udin Bui" in the middle of the football game on MNC TV.
They have a great cast like Lukman Sardi and Tora Sudiro. The script is soooo funny and the idea of telling the story is so creative.
  • Read Q.E.D before sleeping.
  • Oh, and I found GD & TOP new MV "High High"..Really cool stuff.. I love both of them.




Peace Out,

Learn and Move On

Real Madrid got a great lesson from Barcelona on the last el clasico match.
There's no time to be sad or ashamed.
It is what it is.
Just learn from the master and move on.
There are plenty of chance to be happy in the last season.
I will never stop supporting Real Madrid.
