Me and Beauty Treatment

I always laugh at people who ask me about the body treatment that I always have to get my skin " bling " and fairer. My friends at my former office thought that I like to spend not only money but my " precious" hours at the Beauty house in order to get and maintain my body and face skin and that's the reason why I got my - just as they said- Fair Skin..hoho..wrong hypotheses, Gals..

One of my friend had ever asked me like this : Grace, you often "luluran" , don't you?. Then I answered based on the fact: "No, I have never". But doubt of my answer, she said : "then how come your arms skin are ok, I mean there is no different between the "cover" areas and the opposite..the my other fellas said " Because she has the fair skin already". Then She said " I also has the fair one" and the other said " but yours and her is different, Niasnese has fairer skin rather than your tribes ( I don't mean to compare with the other tribes, its only talks about the physical characteristic, where no one are better than other)

Ok, let me tell you..as the only daughter in my family, the influence of my brothers are bigger than my mom. I grew up as a " Boyish" or in indonesian we called it " Tomboy" where I prefer to use hot pants rather than Skirt, train set rather than fancy piggy dolls, joined my brothers play "tamiya" in the field rather than play " masak-masakan" with the girls with the same age.

Then when I came to the " teen" age, where my friends knew " cosmetic for the teen one", I prefered to know how to play " Caesar" games in our PC. Where my friends made their own peer groups or Gank based on their appearances and family social status, I prefered to watch and collect the albums of Nirvana, Green Day, Radiohead and Limpbizkit to the Linkin Park one..I was the big fans of Kurt Cobain, where my friends mad of the cute and charming F4, together with my second brother, we prefer to read "Hai" magazine rather than "Kawanku" magazine which my parents subscribed for me.

From the review, you may see how is my personality. I prefered to have the simple and uncomplicated things rather than the others and also the "woman things". I really mind to spend my money or hours to get "Beauty treatment". The first and ever cream bath time for me was in my 16th, when my aunt asked me to accompany her. Also the Facial treatment, I only had 2 times in my whole life. The 1st one when I was in Bandung, got trapped of the " Sales Promotion Girls" of the product that I used ( I started use the cosmetic since I was in my 2nd years of my college) and the result was sooo hurt and I promised myself that I will never ever have it anymore..but a few days of my wedding day, the bridal owner " forced" me to have one because it will make the make up of my wedding will vivid longer..ok, that was the cool reason to get me in that zone.

How about Luluran or Milky bath or any treatment to make our skin soft and fairer?? I have never tried it even once. Where brides to be are busy in managing the body treatment before the wedding day, I prefered doing nothing but hunt the wedding item. My friend had ever said that the Pre-wedding treatment is the 2nd precious time after The Honey moon preparation..but For me, the best thing that I like is when I and my hubby did the searching for find the simple item such us the bells for the bell boys and get confused to find the suitable rent house according to our budget. .

But I admit since I worked, I can't go away from the main beauty items such us the face powder and the foundation, the eye shadow, eye liner, eye brows , lipstick and blush on because without them, I will looked pale and everyone will ask : " are you sick? because you're looked so pale" . My best friend at the former office will be my delegation and said " she isn't sick, she just don't polish the face yet".

But thanks God, even tough I don't have any desire to do the body treatment, He had already given me the fine skin, where other try hard to get their skin fairer. My parents have a fair one and thats the reason why I got the heritage. So its not about the "luluran" things, but it is just a Grace from above

So even tough I am not a good mates in doing the body treatment for my friend, I don't need to be worry. God knows at the 1st that I am gonna be the lazy lady, so He gives me the bonus one..hehe..Thanks Father!

Choco Cheese Crepes

Yesterday, one thing that occurred in my mind is Choco Cheese Crepes. I really wanted to take a bite of it .. actually no need a long trip to get one, only by 5 minutes from my flat i could have one at Mall Taman Palem Cengkareng

But I just felt lazy to go there alone and I didn't know why.. But lucky me my beloved hubby promised to take me there tomorrow..yeah!!! Thanks Baby!

For your information, before, we had a Crepes stall at the food court downstairs. The item that I liked was Choco Cheese..I always buy it almost everyday before it closed due to the limited and few customer .. hiks .. Good bye my crepes..

Black Day

Today I feel bored and down.. 3 months become a Jobless makes me tired and bored..but whom I can blame?? Whom I can complain to? arrghh...

Saying : Ok Grace, you just need to be patience, God will give you the best one at the best time! I know it already but in fact, to apply it into my condition now is really hard..hikss..God please forgive me..I know you will give me the best answer in Your time..give me the patience, father, give me the strength to pass it and show me your Grace..

Parkiran PlanGi yang (Ternyata) Gak Aman

Sabtu sore kemarin, gw dan hubby main ke Plaza Semanggi karna ada keperluan ke counter Axis yang ada di sana. Karna selama ini kita sering banget ke Plangi ini ( apalagi gw pernah ngekos di Sudirman selama 10 bulan) hubby gw pun ga ragu untuk markir kendaraan motor di parkiran baru Plangi, yang walopun belum di bangun dan masih berupa lahan kosong tapi udah ada pos petugasnya dan diklaim " sama amannya" ama yang didalam bangunan atau Basement karna ini juga official's parking land nya. karna alesan ini trs ditambah akses nya yang lebih cepat dan gampang, hubby gw lebih milih markir di sono

Ternyata pas kita mau balik, ada beberapa laki2 yang nongkrong di beberapa motor yang diparkir ( untung ga ada yang duduk di motor kita) dan waktu kita ngantri untuk diperiksa tiket parkirnya, salah 1 cowo yang duduk di motor orang lain itu nawarin diri untuk meriksa tiket kita..gw yang ga tau apa2 dan ngirain dia salah 1 petugas ( karna kan biasanya lahan parkir mall gitu ga terbuka untuk umum ya) ga ragu untuk nyerahin tiket tadi, eh ternyata abis meriksa tiket tuh orang bilang gini " tambah seribu lagi bang" ( padahal untuk parkir dilahan baru ituh, semua kendaraan dikenakan tarif flat 2 ribu perak yang dibayar di muka, sesuai yang tertera di tiket parkir) hubby gw yang tau kalo ituh pemalakan langsung tancap gas walopun tuh orang masih sempat manggil2..jeleknya lagi, kejadian itu didepan mata salah 1 petugas pemeriksa tiket Plangi..ck ck ck ..

Ternyata perkiraan kita kalo parkir luar itu aman, salah besar.. mungkin lahan yang ga dipager membebaskan preman2 setempat untuk masuk dan duduk di kendaraan kita sehingga kita pun dijadikan lahan untuk dipalak..bukan masalah duit seribu nya yang bikin kita bete, tapi keamanan kendaraan kita yang ternyata ga seperti yang diharapkan..coba kalo ada yang rusak ato ilang disono, emang manajemen Plangi mau disalahkan?? dan sebagai salah satu sentra niaga dan komersil papan atas, masa sih keamanan parkiran ga jauh beda ama pasar Tanah Abang atau low class commercial center lain??

Buat yang sering ke Plaza Semanggi, you better not to park your vehicle in this extra parking land..mendingan di basement aja deh walopun ngantri tapi aman dan bebas preman.. dan buat manajemen Plaza Semanggi, tolong dong hal ini dibenahi sebagai salah satu kriteria untuk shopping center ternama..
