Ga Ga Ooh La La

It's obvious: I'm obsessed with Lady Gaga. She's everywhere, in magazines, blogs, itunes, youtube, ipods whatever. And she's a hell of a pop artist. Her musics are extremely catchy and her fashion is sick. She is the art of her own works. Her new album The Fame Monster out Nov.

My Favorite Things (Trés)

Three times a charm! well, actually this is the only 3rd entry about favorite things, and I think, I still have plenty of them to come (in the future). But it's a little different this time; I don't have as many as usual so anyway, here's my favorite for Fall 09.


SHOES
This obsession with shoes just came out lately. I'm obsessed everything black and white shoes. My favorites have to be adidas, vans and ALDO (all of em are whites). Also, I got D&G loafers last month and Puma by Mihara Yasuhiro (July) and I can't get enough of my Gucci too from last winter. I know a bit show off this one, so, apologize.

ZARA SCARF
I bought when i was in Singapore and Im thinking glad that i got it!


GLEE
It's a happy-hour club: Satyric characters, singing jocks, girls with great voices, gay kid, drama, drama & drama. I'm obsessed!

DIOR HOMME SPORT
I bought so manya scents earlier, but I liked this particular perfume because it smells good, ofcourse and it stays on longer than the other. and How can i decided this is good? I put it on my hair and if its smell good, than it's the good performe.

BOSE Headphone
Worth every penny!


LADY GAGA
I heard her first Jun 08 and I just hypnotised ever since. Just Dance won me over, but Poker Face & Paparazzi were the ones put me in awe. I thought I loved her before, until I heard Bad Romance & Dance In The Dark, and I'm officially obsessed. And should I say more about her fashions?

J'Adore!

I'm fascinated with gladiator sandals, and wondering why can't men sports one? I mean, men wore that waaay back then to begin with (Roman period, remember?). I found out this fab Shanghai shoe designer, Kiroic, who made these gladiator inspired for Juun.J, a Paris-based fashion house. I'm freaked out! in a good way.

Witching Hour

This past Halloween day was my first ever Halloween experience, and I concluded that I don't go well with Halloween. Last year wasn't really fun at all, and this year, the trip to Salem felt like a struggle, literally; the trains like an hour long, and it rained when we're in line to catch a train back to Boston (it's cold and we're hungry).

Bad things aside, there's also fun thing happen: seeing people in their getups. When on a train to Salem, there's this guy i saw who wrapped himself with plastic wraps - which later he told us he's a 'manwich', and then there's so many other whacky costumes in Salem: there's acne (a guy wears red and has a plastic bag with mashed potato in it, and that's for the zit. ew), the queen and king cards, there's Stewie from Family Guy, multiple Dorothys and Alices (which one of them is my bff, Steph), Amy Winehouses and more. By the way, I dressed up as a gangster mafia, while my bro was a.. ringmaster/vintage/etc and there's chinese girl as a geisha and a friend he dressed up as a psycho I guess, BUT since he wore Ed Hardy tee, I kept calling him Jon Gosselin went nuts.

In Salem, there's couple of Christians fanatics that held a demo in the city, and I assumed they don't really enjoy Halloween like the rest of us. Kookoo.

Later that night, I ended up at Steph's apartment with Jaeho and a friend, and we cooked (well technically, only Jaeho) so many foods, Kimchi jigae (?), omelet with crab sticks and reheated foods from days back. So, It was a fun Halloween. But there's.. a little problem going on later (waaay later) that night; just another episode that got heated, but we ended it up. So I guess, that's why I'm not really a big Halloween person. Well, I will certainly try next year, I would dress up even more elaborate than last Saturday.

Anti-Social

For the last couple of days (or weeks) I haven't really interact to people that much, except some class mates (fashion classes) and indo friends online. Yes, I'm on the edge into the anti-social world. Well, maybe I exaggerated that, but here's the thing: fashion classes really take your time, like a lot. It almost left me no time for social life.

Let me break it down; last week alone I spent average 10 hours at school, which for me a new thing, (well I never done that in high school or wtv) and sometimes stayed at the fashion lab until midnight. It's crazy, I'm losing sleep and uber-exhausted.

Last Friday, I was like a mad person, walking around Newbury street to do some window shopping after class. It's so sad but pretty relieving, cause after a week of torture, I can tasted a bit of freedom.

This week is no different, with two tests for Wednesday, portfolios due on next couple of weeks (need a lot of attention this one) and.. some sketch works, and design projects due Nov 13, I don't think I can be social for a very long time. I need vacation.

MIXER November '09: Megan Fox

It's the Hollywood Issue! and you know why I put Megan Fox on it ('cause I'm obsessed with her). The Transformers princess caught my eye since the first time I saw her in - of course - Transformers. But I became obsessed when she starred in "Jennifer's Body"; the movie is so quirky, almost B-Movie ish, dark, geeky and sexy. She's this half demon, half resident bitch in high school that's so brilliant to me. Megan Fox screams hotness.

Freaky Friday

Last Friday was the freakiest morning I've ever had in years. I had this weird dreams that I was in this a 20-stories flying apartment (I assumed it was a plane), and I was on the 20th floor and it was flown during the winter storm which was dangerous (even in a dream).

In the same dream, I watched this 2 guys eating a funny looking things which turned out were seahorses! (this one, I think, because of I watched McQueen's Spring 2010), one was this bubbly-animated purple seahorse on a skewer (grilled) and the other one was gory-mythical looking seahorse (also on a skewer).

I don't know what happened to me and my dreams, but I think it's because I had so many things in my mind and mostly, I was sick. Which brought me to the next topic I'd like to share. I got to the nurse office, and the nurse gave these various meds: for cough and cold. What's interesting was she put em all in this plastic bad, and have label on it saying: "BIO HAZARD". It's humorous and dark at the same time. Just the way I like it.


It's been a rough week for my body and as a result, I was sick for 3 days (5 including the weekends). I, infact, still a bit sick, but I'll deal with it. So tired right now. I'll leave you guys with the must-download tracks of the moment!

DOWNLOAD: "Bad Romance" - Lady Gaga, "Morning After Dark" - Timbaland, "Who Says" - John Mayer, "Did It Again" - Shakira, "Doesn't Mean Anything" - Alicia Keys

Thanks, Weather!

Yep. This climate change just f***ed me up, right in the throat (and nose). It's been 3 days now that I feel ill, and I just need to get rest. But alas, I can't. Too many assignments and important things to do for me to just leave em for a while: design 1 garment due next Friday (got the laces!), Tests on Mondays (History & Math) and basically the next whole week will be bombarded by midterm tests and my condition 'really helps' me a lot.

Speaking of weather, the coldness comes early. Last year I remember it wasn't cold until early november. This make me sick! (literally, and I heard tomorrow's gonna snow! ouch). I really need vacation but I just can't think one. Btw, lack of internet drives me crazy lately. The internet in Malden is free no more (And I can only access it in the lounge area, which of course no privacy at all). So as I said before (in my last 3 posts), this week pretty suck.

There's still bright sides though, I was granted second chance in History classes which, for me, is huge. I can regain trusts to the people and show that I can fix this. Also, fall means new fashion! and I'm eyeing some stuff at Marc! I wish I have time off. Oh! the Spring 2010 Collections also held last month and I will post my top favorites!

So Long My Watch

I just lost my watch like 2 days ago, and i sucked hard. This is my second loss after my first lost (Sidekick in September last year). I have this kinda Phantom Limb effect on me, I feel like I still have it on my wrist but it's not there anymore. This week was pretty sucked.

Another update about suckness is my History of Costume class. Gosh, I missed my second test, I've prepared so much last night - I studied the names and photos - just to found out I was so late came into class room. I hate the fact that I didn't really thought about the times this morning and also, I missed the T.

I just wish I can get over this situation real fast.

Sucktober

I know it's too early to call that out - I even wanted to call it worse but the drama is so would be unnecessary - and here's why: I experienced too much trouble already for the last couple of days. Too many fights and arguments ensued and left me all frustrated and weird. Ha. I don't know what happen to me lately.. but surely, this week is hell and yet, the first week is still going on.

I feel terrible for the fights and all of em were unnecessary. I didn't know what I was thinking and the worse part is the guilt and it happened.

So moving on. I was asked to help do this project and I must say I'm not really 100% sure about it. I was asked to do sketches but I just wanna do that. I don't need to come back and forth to make it perfect and give comments and so on. This person's taste is different than mine and it seems our aesthetics are very different and for me, if I don't like it, I wouldn't feel like doing any of it. But I gotta do it - because my moral compass says so.

.. And yeah, pretty much that was happening in one day. So pretty blurred earlier today (buta karena emosi). Anyway, life goes on and time to moving on. Boy, do i need to hear that again.
