Whatsapp

on Wednesday, January 19, 2011
This is the most unimportant yet refreshing post that I have made in my blog, a simple-silly conversation through whatsapp- an iPhone application that can link me free of charge with my best friend , Miss Sexy in Malaysia. The conversation started when I told her that I just checked on how to work in Korea, particularly in Samsung, but unfortunately they only require native Korean to join their internship :( So..

M:  I think I will just apply to SM Entertainment  or another agencies  to become their new actress. Nice, right?
C:  Hahahaha. Maybe apply for their company design competition? And beat the Korean!
M:  I think becoming an actress will suit me better, because I can specialize in becoming pregnant woman or  chubby girl! My friend who recently traveled to Korea told me that she cannot even see one single chubby girl on the street. It is packed with damn skinny girls!
C:  Oh good, then you can act the cute one inside and find your prince!
M:  Yes, my prince! That will be better. hahahaha I am pretty sure that it will be hard for those agencies to find chubby actress, so I will volunteer myself.
C:  True, since you are the only one for them. hahahahha
M:  True, then you can check my news on Allkpop (Korean entertainment news website), or see my videos on Youtube!
C:  And I will post on Facebook and share it!
M:  Hahaha thank you, then you can be my second fans (of course Sianna will register to be the first!)
C:  Then how about ask lebay Sianna to become your promoter? Over and exaggerate, so your news can spread xxxx times more effective than the media!
M: Wow, that's cool! Then I can be famous even before I debut. hahaha
C:  You know her, right? She has a lot of creepy idea and makes people fall inside the trap.
M: Hahahaha OMG, our conversation is so..... I will post it on my blog!
C:  Serious? Shy donkkk!
M:  Nooo this is pretty cool, and worse come to worst we still can debut as a comedian! :p
C:  She will try to make everyone have a dream and you will glow like a star in Allkpop. It is not a fake dream, it is a real dream comes true for our Maya Baktiar!
M: Hahahaha Cheryl, congratulations you have successfully join Sianna in her Lebayers Club.
C:  Lol. I even don't know where the link and just simply said it. Your fault for making me lebay!
M: Just blame it on Sianna, hahaha Or just confess it that lebay is actually runs in your blood.
C: You know, last time I tried to talk like that with certain friends, but I just receive silence in response!
M: . . . Hahahahahhaha (I burst in laughter, and cannot stop laughing for a moment!)
C:  And they think I am sinting...

Well, Cheryl, I think you should be Indonesian faster! Because almost everyone in Indonesia is lebay and we enjoy it being lebay! Maybe it will be a culture soon enough. Hahahaha. And for Sianna, if, u read this blog.. then we just want to say sorry if (maybe) we were ruining your image, but we just want to sincerely say that we miss you! XD hahahaha


Have a good day, everyone!

안녕하세요?

on Monday, January 10, 2011


Since I watched Playful Kiss (a korean drama for those who don't know) last year, I can't hold myself anymore from Korean-entertainment addiction. Either dramas or musics, I enjoy both of them and like it very much! I know maybe it sounds crazy, and considering my age right now, this is not a good hobby as it can lead me to a wild-impossible-dream. Sigh~ Korean dramas tend to show a picture-perfect life in a realistic way, and of course according to the viewers expectation where most of the stories are between  good looking guys and girls, whom one of them is rich and the other one is poor. Problems always come in the middle, and finally resulted in either happy or sad ending. Sounds too cliché, huh? Anyway, I think they have been very successful in making dramas that can engaged their viewers with the story line. 


Other than their successful production of dramas, they also constantly producing a lot of young and talented singers, dancers, and musician. At my first impression, all of them look the same and I suppose that they go to the same plastic surgeon to fix their face, especially where plastic surgery is not a big deal anymore in Korea. Other than their good looking, I used to think that they have nothing. But in fact, I was totally WRONG. They have both pretty faces and voices with extra talent to dance. It makes them a total entertainer or let's call them a multi-entertainer. Wow. Before they were debuted as a singer or groups, they have been through many painful trainings, which have been started when they were still very young. On top of that, they also sing many nice songs with addictive melody, such as Nobody by Wonder Girls (who doesn't know this song?) or Sorry Sorry by Super Junior. 


SM Entertainment
Various K-pop artists

All of the reasons and addictions above, has led me to my new activities! Which is... learning to speak Korean! LOL. I am just doing this to fill my spare time while satisfying my thirst from Korean Entertainment. Sigh~ And actually, it is not as easy as I thought. I feel like a baby starting to learn how to read and write. It even take hours for me just to read or write a couple of sentence. Hahaha And I don't even want to hear my voice when I am practicing the pronunciation. OMG. Anyway, I am really looking forward to be able to speak Korean fluently and go to Korea for real in the future! :)

Neng Geulis and Miss Sexy

on Wednesday, January 5, 2011

Let's call this post the special one. What make it so special and why? Well, honestly because this post is a request and it will be about a short story about my friends (the special one!). Okay, let me now introduce you to:

Sianna Kusuma Widjaja a.k.a Neng Geulis

Sianna with Huskiteh Widjaja

Neng Oon BB-autism mode ON.
D.O.B : Bandung, 28 November 1990
Education :The most beautiful girl in SMU. BPK Penabur, Bandung and just recently graduate from Curtin School of Business, Perth - WA.
Fav. Food : Anything edible, especially dairy foods such as milk and cheese. But she insists that she's living a healthy lifestyle so she claim that she prefers healthy foods only.
Fav. Color : No other than Purple!
Fav. Activity : There are too many to mention because it varies from eating, sleeping, exercising, groceries
 shopping, and (the most recent one) Vikram yoga.

Sianna is a very unique friend of mine, and if I have to describe what kind of person she is it will take more than a day to complete. I first met during the CIC Orientation day and at that time I thought that she is a cute and cheerful girl, she looks smart and very-very-very talkative (non-stop talking, even though it was our first meeting). After that, as time goes by and several "this and that" has happened, we become a close friend - a very close one since we always share about a lot of things and we trust each other. She is a very loyal and caring friend, she loves her friends like her family and will do anything for her friends. A very brave girl with a kind and innocent heart :) Although she often looks "stupid" and "slow", but in fact she is a genius! I believe that she can be very successful in the future and she can look very cool as a working-mother only if she can get rid of her clumsiness and "oon"ess. Hahahaha Anyway, I'm happy to have her as my friend and I hope our friendship will last very-very-very lonnnngggggggg as long as the road that we usually take (by walking in a very hot and even stormy weather!)

Thank you Sianna for filling my college and university life in Perth with a lot of memorable experience and lessons. Friends for ever, chingu-yaaaa~

Cheryl Teo Chui Hung a.k.a Miss Sexy

Pretty Cheryl

Her true image! :p Still cute, dong!

Even though we (me & Sianna) call her miss sexy, it does not mean that she is that kind of "sexy" bus she is indeed very ""sexy"" (in our secret term). Hahaha. Well she is my pretty friend from Malaysia, a very smart and tough sister for me! You know what is very special about her in my opinion? She has a kind of aura that can soothe your feelings when you are in trouble. She can calm you down and cheer you up in her own way, she has a very kind and pure heart as well! She will always be there when you need her, her love is like a mothers love which need no payback. :)

I can never forget how much she has helped me when I was sick last year, without any family that can take care of me, she come everyday bring me lunch plus a lot of magazines (still in my house :p) and accompany me! Sobs~ I'm crying. Thanks mama Cheryl!!!

Even though I just known her for about two and a half years, but somehow I feel her like my  own sister! Similar like Sianna, I met her in CIC when we were in the same marketing group. After that, we took the same major in university, go to the same class together and always be in the same group for every assignment! So far, she is the best group-mate ever! She is very diligent and always try very hard to contribute for the assignment. I have a lot of memories with her, whether it is a good or bad all of the memories that we have spent together are priceless! Especially these days when we shared a lot of stories about our personal life, it was very fun! I love how she can comfort me when I am down. I love you, Cheryl my sexiest friend!!! Hugs~

Not yet 2011.

on Tuesday, January 4, 2011
Even though 2011 has arrived and three days have passed by, I still want to share some pictures and activities that I have done recently during my holiday, just before 2010 ended. 

1. Blackberry Curve 3G !
Ages ago, I refused to go with the trends -switching my 'ordinary' mobile phone into a blackberry, just because I did not want to be addicted to my blackberry and limiting my communications with the 'real world' people. I praised iPhone for its sophisticated technology and amazing application and therefore I thought I would never buy a blackberry. However as more people were starting to use a blackberry and realizing the fact that it can ease the communication with certain people, I then decided to buy one for myself. Now, after 3 weeks using it, I can fully understand why people love it so much. But still, it is important to keep in mind that we are living in a real world where real conversation and communication with others around us are the essential.

It is originally purple (Neng, please don't be jealous :p)! 

2. Super big lunch @ Jamoo!
It is true when people say "High school never ends!". I just had a small gathering with some friends of mine, and all of us has agreed to meet at Jamoo restaurant located in Shangri-la Hotel. It was a pretty memorable place for all of us, since a lot of our (best) friends celebrated their birthday there. All I can say about that day is, GREAT FOOD TOGETHER WITH GREAT FRIENDS WILL RESULT A GREAT LAUGHTER! We enjoyed the day so much, non-stop eating and non-stop chit-chating.

my own appetizer!

Cynthia and Evelyn

My pretty ladies

Bingbing-Evelyn-Cynthia-Me-Philia-Anita-Hendy-Felix-David-Jovendi

We are trying hard to imitate Bingbing's signature pose! Lol. It was hard to look 'natural'


3. Finally met Theresia Tedjo!
She is one of my friend since Junior High, we used to take Mandarin course and skipped classes together! When I finally saw her, I then believe that people can change a lot in just no-time. Of course the change that I mean here is the positive one! She look much more gorgeous and mature now, the way she talk is different. Somehow, she is now look like a busy young lady with bunch of things to do. She is currently helping his father's law agency, since she is studying Law in one of the well known university in Surabaya. I am so happy to finally meet her and to know that she has become adorable!





4. The most important person on earth for me.
Above all reasons that I have, my parents come in the first place as those whom I want to meet. I am very grateful to have them as my parents, and no-one can ever replace them in my heart, ever. Words cannot even describe how much I love them and thankful for having them in my life. I love you forever, mama papa!
Me <3 Mama + Papa
That's all which conclude my journey in 2010. So far, 2010 is a pretty nice year for me as I realize the importance of having God, family and friends in my life. Thank you 2010, and welcome 2011!

Love love love!

It is my sister!

on Saturday, January 1, 2011
I am proudly introducing one of my sister, Fenny Baktiar! She is 18 months younger than me, and is very different both personality and physically compared to me. She is a melancholic girl who does not talk much-unless necessary and a very shy girl. She does not look like the other ordinary teenagers in her age because she prefer to stay at home and endlessly drawing rather than hanging out with her friends and go shopping to buy the newest clothes. She definitely will save all of the money that she has rather than spending it for fashion or beauty stuffs. Even though she is my sister, she is very skinny and has a very fair skin with cute little mono-lid eyes :) 

Fenol with her signature pose. LOL
Regardless these differences, we both good in our own way :) She is a very calm and feminine girl, with a pure heart that cares a lot for her family. Nobody is perfect, though.. even though she is very talented in arts especially drawing and design, she lacks of the confidence which is in my opinion is pretty much important. 

My mom sent her to a fashion design school since 3 years ago, and she already won several competition for her design illustrations. Unfortunately since her passion is not in fashion design, she has no motivation to become a successful designer in the future. She sucks at making patterns and tailoring, thus she will not be able to make any clothes. Deep down in my heart, I really wish that she could make a wedding dress for me when I got married in the future (it is a wayyyyy too far plan, :p).

The Article about her as the first winner.

It was in the August 2010 edition of Cosmopolitan Indonesia

Few weeks ago, when I went to a doctor I was reading some magazines until I found an article about a competition that my sister joined. She won the first place at that time! When I read it, somehow I feel very contented with her achievements. =D As her sister, I can only support her from behind and pray for her success in the future and I believe that she will be able to find her passion and work hard for it soon!

Love you, sister! <3
