Paper Dolls; My New Hobby!

Hi lovely people,

I might look like an useless girl, but I do innovate and look up for hobbies. A long time ago I wanted to sew, which results in this:

Looks like a haunted doll.
It might be not the perfect one for me, I am an impatient one and have problems with being tidy. But I wanted to make a doll by myself so bad, and I thought; what if we used glue instead of sewing?

Using clothes, it won't be nice if I just glued it. Then why don't we change the materials into something we can glue?

HVS paper is okay, but when I tried to fold it, it just couldn't stand up and wasn't strong enough. I looked for another materials and found out that the buffalo carton fits my will perfectly.

I made the design on computer, and kept failing and failing until one day, I succeed with the pattern and made my first paper doll.

Still messy.
I couldn't resist taking a selfie with my first creation. 
And I tried again, again and again until without realizing I already created a lot of paper dolls. And here are some of my creations, feel free to check it out and give me feedbacks in the comments! Just don't be too harsh, because I'm a human with feelings too.
Pentatonix, a group filled with incredibly talented people.

The Sisters of Arandelle wants to meet you!

My childhood friends!

And here are some pictures of me and my works. Yeah, I love taking pictures! It's like stopping the time; and you can experience a moment again and again.

Yes, we're twins.

Two Nobitas?
These hobbies are just to fulfill my holiday. I sometimes sell them to my relatives and friends, but I don't really want to focus on it for now. Because my study is the first priority, and I have to hold on my commitment and promise.

Anyways, don't let boundaries stop you from creating! Look for alternatives, and try them until you're satisfied; which you shouldn't be.

Have fun with your creativity, and who knows, you might have a business because of the creations you made?

Belajar banyak di konferensi Psikologi ARUPS, Bali

Halo teman-teman, Kali ini aku menggebu-gebu sekali untuk menceritakan pengalamanku di Bali. Sungguh, sampai detik ini aku masih merasa bahagia dan bangga akan acara yang telah aku ikuti pada 21-22 Februari 2018 waktu itu! Jadi, awal mulanya seperti ini... Once upon a time , pada 2016 akhir, seorang dosen di kampusku menawarkan aku dan temanku (Desta) untuk ikut berkontribusi dalam penelitian beliau. Oh ya, untuk kalian yang belum tahu, aku sedang mengambil jurusan psikologi di Universitas Tarumanagara, ya. Aku sempat takut sih, karena belum pernah mengerjakan proyek seperti ini. Waktu itu, aku betul-betul khawatir karena pengalamanku dalam penelitian betul-betul nol besar. Namun, dosenku, Pak P. Tommy Y. S. Suyasa (beliau akrab dengan panggilan Pak Tommy), berbaik hati dan bersedia membimbing dari awal, beliau pun sabar menjelaskan pada kami apabila ada hal-hal yang masih kami belum pahami. Oh ya, kami belajar banyak dari dosen kami ini; hal-hal aka...

'Stranded' in The Netherlands

Hoi allemaal! Hoe gaat het met jou? Getting through something new or being that 'new thing' itself is never easy. How eyes look at us as something different might be hard to be unnoticed, and how people treat us differently, might as well be difficult. The Netherlands, well known as the land of the tulips, is something very far far away from my mind. I lived in Indonesia as a little toddler, all I thought was playing, sleeping, screaming, singing and dancing. Having the chance to live and study there, never ever crossed my mind before. Destiny cannot be denied. One day, my dad was asked to live there for a couple of years. First, it was very hard having a long distance father-and-daughter relationship. We went chatting through video chat, and I, as his little girl, always talked to him everything I thought of. We usually have the night prayer together through the video chat, and it was very rough that times. Years flied away; and afterwards, my dad invi...

Dear, Me (and You)

          Pernahkah kamu mengecewakan dirimu sendiri, sahabat? Perasaan benci dan ketidakberanian yang begitu mengurungmu dalam sebuah sangkar baja, tidak memberimu kebebasan sejati.  Tidak, bukan saja merampas kebebasan, tetapi mereka jugalah yang menghentikan laju langkahmu. Keduanya membuatmu berjalan di tempat, berhenti, atau bahkan lebih parahnya lagi; berjalan ke belakang.  Sebetulnya, kamu juga harus menganalisa sebab dari penyiksaan diri tersebut. Sebuah ‘ekskresi’ yang harus dikeluarkan tanpa perlu diraih kembali. Bagaikan sang pangeran katak yang menanti kecupan sang putri, pegharapan yang terlalu tinggi bisa saja mencukai hatimu. Kemungkinan sebuah harapan hanyalah dua, entah itu akan membuat pipimu bersemu, ataulah ia akan memilukan hati cantikmu.  Jadi, kita tidak perlu melakukan yang terbaik? Bukan, aku tidak berkata demikian. Kenalilah potensi dan segala pesonamu. Menurutku, tida...
