• I made simple DIY for my self and some parties. It makes me feel good about myself when they said thank you for the party.( so more DIY gift resolution)
• Went abroad at least once and traveling in place i love and new place. I'm so gonna do another traveling in the next year.
• I dont think i read many books this year, so yes i should read more and make a review about it.
• Too many food this year, and too many pricey food also. I need to save more and exercise more also (another resolutions!)
• I spent so many times with my friends and family and that's a good thing (gonna keep it for next year)
• My friends are married and starting a new life, that's what i need to look for in the next year (hopefully)
• I wrote about them on their birthday, hopefully i will give some birthday-mail too (resolution!)
• I lost my phone (it was only a month old), so i need to give extra care for my things and not doing anything in a hurry.
• I'm becoming this grumpier gals lately, i really need to slow things down and not easily freaked out when things didn't go as i planned. (deeply sorry for those i "silent-treatment"ed).
• I learned to let go and walk away from something or someone that giving me a bad vibes or i know it won't work for both ways.

Whoaa whoaa three post(s) in one day? guess someone has free time because the boss and the lead are not in the building (ha!). It's holiday guys, dont judge.

So, when i was in Surabaya Iena ask me to go to this place with some friends from high school. TooTooMoo Patisserie is in Jl Imam Bonjol, it's beside the Consulate of Netherlands. But it's bit tricky to find the place, when you already pass The Parlour, you need to drive slowly and look on your left (if you drive from jl. Dr. Soetomo). Still confused? you need to see this map.

It's cute little place and they have cute mural on the wall. The cake taste really good but a bit pricey because i tho it's homemade it should be not as pricey as in the mall. You should try their tea, i pick white ginger lily (i choose because it's sound pretty, off course).

It's good news for Surabaya's people for having these cute pastry parlour like this.

TooTooMoo Patisserie
Jalan Imam Bonjol No.38,Surabaya
Open Hour: 9:00 am – 9:00 pm

My dream book has arrived like couple months a go and i love everything in it. From my favorite duo sisters slash blogger Elsie and Emma from A Beautiful Mess, which i read every morning since i was in my second year college. Unfortunately they dont sell the book in my country, so i need to buy it from Barnes and Nobles and it takes a month until it arrived to me (and hello for pricey international delivery).

You need this book if you want to make DIY for everything in your house. They have tips for small and easy things, for party, for kids, easy recipes, and even for the advance DIY-ers. With their specialty, yes good pictures and cool friends. How could bunch of cool people in one frame and have really cool backyard party (sigh).

I want to buy the first book, A Beautiful Mess Photo Idea Book. Hopefully next year :D

Juned told me about this place and we decided to go there for friends-gathering with Dimas too. It's been a year i guess we had this quality time like this. I know they'll bullied and laugh at me, but i bear with them this time :| .

De Mandailing Cafe placed at Klampis, near Ayam Goreng Pemuda. It's small cafe but when you enter the cafe you know the place is hype. Mostly the customers are college student because they bring their laptop and books for study ( I never do this, how could you study inside a cafe? dont you will talk to each other instead?). You must order their XL Pancake, it's sooo good. Love it so much!

De Mandailing Cafe
Jl. Klampis Jaya 9A Blok B1, Surabaya
Open hours: 11am - 11pm

Masih sekitar party Suci+Yoyon+Rieki thingy. Salah satu yang saya buat juga adalah balon emoticon whatsapp. Karena memang temanya adalah emoticon party, maka saya mulai mencari apa saja yg kira-kira diperlukan untuk party. Sadly, minim sekali tema pesta dengan tema emoticon whatsapp. Saya ingat Studio DIY pernah beberapa kali membuat barang-barang DIY dengan bentuk Emoticon whatsapp, seperti ini, ini dan ini. There's a emoji balloon too! Yay for emoticon party!

Emoticon Balloon

Bahan 
- Balon foil warna kuning (bought here)
- Kertas lipat warna warni (Sesuaikan dengan warna emoji yang akan dibuat)
- Gunting
- Template Emoticon yang dipilih. Untuk template emoticon bisa cari ambil di google atau gambar sendiri saja. Template ini untuk memudahkan ketika akan membuat detil dari emoticon.
- Double Tape


How To
1. Isi balon dengan helium (agak susah cari abang-abang balon helium --")
2. Gunting kertas lipat mengikuti template mata dan mulut emoticon yang akan di buat.
3.Tempel di balon, sesuaikan kira2 menempelnya di tengah-tengah balon.
4. Done! 

Gampang-gampang susah sebenarnya untuk membuat emoticon balon ini, karena "mengepaskan" mulut, mata agar kelihatan seperti emoticon yang asli itu butuh trial and error.

Happy Making!
