ESCALADES 2012

A short brief about ESCALADES 2012, our school (SMAK5 BPK Penabur Kelapa Gading) annually holds a cup, and which is also an open house for our school. And for this year, the theme for our cup is 'Millennium'. The cup holds for one week, starting from the 20th of October, where we'll be having the opening, and until the 25th of October, the closing ceremony. There are sports competition, which will started earlier, since the 17th and the 18th of October, but as well, we have a fashion design competition. The fashion design competition itself is divided into two competition. We have outfit making, where the contestant ought to make an outfit which suits the theme (Millennium), and by using the main material we have provided. The main material of their outfit is aluminum foil, but they can bring their own additional material to add some touch ups the outfit. They are not required to sew, since we provided each contestant a mannequin and pins for them. And the second one is fashion drawing, each contestants are required to draw an outfit which suits the theme. They can draw and color it, or they can make a collage out of it. There's no requirements for this since it's all about the creativity.

Dealing with failures.

This post is mostly about my rambles, and bear with it, kay?

To succeed. Yes. That's basically everyone's need. Just don't deny, who doesn't want to be one successful guy? And the idea when they say that success destroys you, keep that in mind. In my opinion, success will lead you and encourage you better.

It's indeed true that we have to be careful on what to wish for. But in the other hand, dreaming is what defines you. Dream as much as you can, as we all live to fulfill our dreams right? I have never heard of a case when someone said, "Oh I have succeed in lots of things and it destroys me." After achieving something everyone dreamed of, doesn't it motivate you to do things better and greater than that? Well. It's the nature of us, human beings that we'll never be satisfied with what we have today. We'll forever want more, and we can't deny that. And succeeding on achieving something brings the best out of someone. It'll gain their confidence and help them to go further to the next level. To achieve another chapter of their dream.

On the darker note, failure obviously destroys someone. Theory is just a matter of theory. When people said that you can only learn to get up if you have ever fell down. In fact, not everyone has that kind of big heart to achieve failure. Not everyone is in a conducive environment, surrounded by people who'll have his/her back. When someone fails, somehow there's a little piece in them that breaks in pieces, knowing that they have failed to prove his/herself, failing to pleased people whom they loved. Somehow, you lost your confidence, and finding back what's lost is rather hard, isn't it?

Everyone brags when they succeed, but no one brags when they failed. Perhaps they're ashamed of it, or because of other particular reasons only heaven knows. But the thing is, it's not that easy to get up after you fell. It's easier to keep on walking as you have already walked before. It's easier said than done too, right? 

When poeple says that succeeding too much will make you feel overly proud of yourself, and I personally think it's our nature to feel that way. But failures could kill what's inside of you. To sulk in misery or to move on is a personal choice. But the aftermath of failure will always feel the same to people. It kills.

This is not a motivational writing, I'm currently not in the best mood I can ever be. This short essay was written for my SAT lesson test. It tears me up rewriting it, knowing that I am failing everything I'm doing. I sucks. That's the only thing I can conclude.

Apology

I'm the one to blame..

Sorry for the pain I caused, for every single thing that made you shed your tears.

Sorry if I caused too much fights..

Sorry for being the worst you've ever had..

INSTAFEEDS- Summer holiday

These are some random pictures I managed to take during my holiday to Europe last summer! Weehee!

It could be my.. last.

It was Independence's Day celebration at school yesterday.. and it'll be my last independence day celebration I'll ever had in Indo. It's amazing how fast time flies. It has been a year since I had so much fun in last year's celebration, though I didn't take part in this year's as much as I did in last year.. I still, can't get through the thought that I'm growing up. Rapidly.

I know I've mentioned this kind of stuffs quite much, but.. you know. This exact date, this exact time, next year, things won't be the same. I guess I'll be overseas, all my friends will be too, my boyfriend, my family.. You know, I'll no longer be in the same continent with all of them.. And eventhough school is a serious pain in the ass, I am trying so hard to survive, but more over.. to enjoy the last bits of it. Yesterday was seriously the last year of Independence Celebration, perhaps the last year I have to stand for 90 mins for a flag ceremony, covered all in sweats. I know I'll be missing this. And everything.

I caught up with my girls right after school, was planning to watch Step Up: Revolution but daymit.. the movie's outmoded. Boo for no movie date. But instead, we plan to have some drink, tried the new bubble tea stand, and got a free upsize for it's soft opening promo. Went to grabbed lunch at the noodle stall near V's place. Talk a lot, laugh a lot..
I thought the four of us will be studying in the same country later after high school.. but I guess, I'll be leaving alone further. Geez, I'm gonna miss them, seriously.
