Here is one wedding and dress store. I believe you will love it.

Hi guys!! Last night was my prom night, and it was really dope! Despite it was my last night with all of my high school friends and teachers altogether, I was really happy that I can celebrate this last event with them. So, the prom night was celebrated in Grand Ballroom of Novotel Hotel, Tangerang. And as you can see, the theme was "Addicted To A Memory." It was held from 5 pm till drop (about 9 pm). I was asked to help the prom night committee to help them as an usher because they lack of people. I started preparing my look from 1 pm and had to standby already in the ballroom at 3 pm. I'm so glad to have a new experience. I understand now that handling such a big event is hard. When things don't go as planned, some people might get angry for no reason and we have to deal it with a cool mind. I've never been an usher before and now I know that being an usher is super tiring, standing all the time and make sure the guests are taking the right places. Especially with the high heels lol (pegel!!!). 

There were many kinds of performance; choirs, traditional dance, modern dance, solo singers, and a special choral group by the teachers! Also, there were bestowals for "king" and "queen" of the night, both from the students and teachers. They were selected based on how much they put effort for their appearance that night. The "queen" from the students was really beautiful, her dress was really cute! And from the teachers, the "king" was a Chinese literature teacher, Lǎoshī Santo, and the "queen" was Miss Verawati. Lǎoshī Santo doesn't teach my class, so I don't really know him, but his appearance last night sure was great! While Miss Verawati was my English teacher when I was in 10th grader. She's one of my favorite high school teacher! Too bad I didn't take any proper pictures of them. Well, actually, I didn't take any proper pictures during the prom. Most of the pictures I took are selfies and selfies and selfies lol. 

Soto Daging Jakarta - Novotel Hotel, Tangerang

The dinner were great, too! At least they were beyond my expectation. But I didn't took photos of all of the foods, I only managed to took this one above, it's Soto Daging Jakarta. The bowl was kind of cute so I felt like taking photo of it. It tastes good! There were also blackpepper beef, sweet and sour fried fish, fried noodles, etc. As for the desserts, there were many kinds of puddings (custard is provided), fruits, and mini cakes. The cakes was really delicious! So, I was taking everything to my table because I was hungry as hell (we had dinner at about 7 pm), but in the end didn't eat up everything. I'm a bad girl for this, I know right, so don't do this naughtiness of mine xD sorry chefs for not eating everything I took.

This picture above shows me and my favorite teacher! He's Mr Kautsar, he teaches multimedia lessons. To be honest, I'm not that kind of student that act super polite all the time. I prefer teachers that I can talk to like talking to a friend (but with still keeping the politeness and not stepping out boundaries), and he does. Plus, he's fat. You know, I have a thing about fat guys. I like them flabby more than skinny. At the end of my 11th grade term, there was an issue about him resigning, but fortunately he decided to consider about it again, and here he is, being my teacher until I graduate! He's really someone to be proud of. Love you, big guy!

I must say that these girls; Liva, Nabiilah, and Lorens are my high school best-friends that I spend most of my time with them. And I want you to know that we're not that kind of lovey-dovey best-friends that cries when we're about to separated or other crybaby stuff. We insult each other, but tbh, isn't it the actual meaning of being best-friends? Insulting each other without hard feelings? (Gak suka banget deh sama temen yg dikatain sedikit langsung baper. It's just like, EW.) During the last three years, we had some friendship issues, most because of differences and how we can't fully understand each other yet, but we made up then. I had great times with them, really. Love you guys! Although we won't meet everyday anymore just like we used to, I know that I can't forget all of our lovely memories! Wise sayings: For me, friendships are best when we don't take it too seriously. Because if we fall too deep, it may hurts when we break apart. I don't mean that friends are just for fun though, I see friends as important persons that really matters to me, but seeing further that not everyone think the same, I just want to avoid heartbreaks :)

Aaaaanddd... favorite man of the night goes to my dearest partner: Andi Kurniawan Narutama! I always love guys in suits (too bad still can't see my boyfie in suit directly, still never had the chance), and he was really great last night! I can say that he's my guy best-friend. I love him so much! We has similar likes and sense of humor. I really can't imagine how bad my high school might be without this cute guy!! Fyi, actually he was my elementary school friend. Then we took different middle school, and met again in a same high school. Isn't this a fate? Well, I know it is. Me without him is just a piece of dust (butiran debu maksudnya). We're planning to start working together for a same company in the near future, and please, wish us luck, okay? xD (talking about start working, I feel a bit uneasy. I think I'm still not ready for working all serious (ugh you know, I'm just too hyper). I'm scared I made a mess and others. Plus, I'm feeling like don't wanna let go of my holiday as a jobless person lol).

I hate how my face always look awkward in mirror selfies.

Sorry for the selfies! I really want to post it here because it's so rare for me taking selfies wearing party outfit and makeup. I really want to say thanks to whoever lend me the makeup stuff and the senior (didn't know her name) who applied my eyeshadow, and also to Angel that I just met recently but decided this hairstyle for me (I like it so much!), and to Aureliya who helped me curl my hair (my hair is so thick that it need patience to curl it). I know I should've take photos earlier when my makeup and hairdo was better, but I forgot because I had to standby on my place as an usher in the beginning of the event.

And finally, a look to share with you guys: my prom night outfit. It wasn't special though. The dresscode was dress and suit, and I don't have any nice dress to wear. I thought I gotta buy a new one, but I'm afraid if I buy it in a hurry like this it won't be good. I didn't put too much effort in my prom look. I bought the jumpsuit before the chinese new year, and the cape blazer last week. But I kinda like this look tho. I wanted to wear black so much, 'cause I think wearing black to the prom must be cool xD

Last but not least: it's the yearbook staff family photo!! I'm so happy that we finally managed to take photo of all of us because that guy on the most left, Agung, is really hard to contact that we can't take a full team photo with him. But thank God that he attended the prom so we can drag him to take photo with us lol. Working with these guys is great, although we had arguments, we can get through it. Too bad I didn't take photos with the prom night committee because my parents picked me up too early and I can't keep them waiting to just take photos with them. And yep, we still have work to do: finishing our yearbook. I hope we can make it in time so the yearbook can be distributed to all students with the last education report card (about in the middle of June). Just get ready for work, work, work, work, work, work~

This prom must be one of my memorable events in my life. The prom wasn't perfect, but the memories we made are perfect.

See you next post! xx

[Instagram Highlights] November 2015

Hi guys!! Tomorrow is the last day of November, so I'm here now to share my instagram highlights of the month. Most are foods because I find pleasure by taking photos of foods and eat them as soon as I got a good picture of them lol. Please enjoy! 

1. Took a photo with Dandy at Mujigae! Dandy is my new friend since I started my 12th grade (it's the first time that we got in a same class). He's unpredictable, funny, childish, yet a good friend. 
2. Dolsot Bibimbap I ordered when I went to Mujigae a few weeks ago. So far, bibimbap is my favorite korean food. Going to try Mujigae's cheese bibimbap once I got there again :D
3. Drew Sheep Diana, a character card from LINE Let's Get Rich game. It was a pleasure to draw her since she's very cute! 
4. Also drew Coco, my favorite character from LINE Let's Get Rich game. She's so calm and elegant. I like her blue hair so much :)
5. Went to Marugame Udon again. Well, you can say that Marugame Udon is my family's favorite restaurant. My dad loves udon so much!
6. Lady Pink Roll by Sushi Box. Believe me; you can't buy happiness, but you can buy sushi and it's kind of same thing!! I love sushi so much (much much much more than udon lol) that it becomes one of my favorite food, EVER. 
7. My class was in charge of flag ceremony at school on November 2. I took part as the reader of Indonesian constitution. The person on left is Olivia and on the right is Ribka, my classmates.
8. My one and only, beloved annoying boyfriend ever. I was just want to take a photo of him, but he actually don't wanna so I command him to make a pose and it was what he did xD
9. Had pasta at Pizza Hut with my teacher and friend. It was too creamy, so I thought it would be better if I had chosen pizza. 

Before we enter the air of December 2015, I wanna announce that I'm going to take the Blogmas 2015 challenge! I just acknowledged about this challenge a few hours ago from some blogs that are posting their Blogmas 2015. So, for those who hasn't know, Blogmas challenge is a task for bloggers who are taking the challenge to make a post everyday starting from 1st to 25th. 

I'm not pretty sure if I can accomplish this task perfectly or not, since my school life is getting busier and my second week of December will be my exam week. Wish me luck, okay? I also want to take this chance to say thank you for my loyal readers who visit my blog even though I'm pretty inactive. Thank you so much! So I want to make my apologize by taking Blogmas challenge which indirectly force me to be active during December :) 

That's all for now, see you on December guys! xx 

[Instagram Highlights] September & October 2015

Hi guys! How's your day? 

I totally forgot to post my instagram highlights for September. Lately, I got really (really, really, really) busy. A lot of school assignments, homeworks, group projects, exams, etc. So, for now, please enjoy my instagram highlights for both September and October!

1. A selfie with my friend, Andi! He's one of my close friends since we have a lot of mutual likes. He's my best partner to play the trending game LINE Let's Get Rich xD
2. Celebrated my 17th birthday on September 21! I had lunch with my boyfie and had dinner with my family on that day. I'm so blessed :D
3. Had udon last Sunday at Marugame Udon. (In my opinion,) Marugame has the best udon in Indonesia! I had one of the new menus: Kitsune Udon (still prefer Niku Udon, though). 
4. Got my first nendoroid in my life! I never had a nendoroid before, since it's an expensive toy. I think it's such a waste to spend money on this kind of money (but I like it so much when I have so little money lol). I got this from my best friend as a birthday gift. 
5. Ekabi Snow Popcorn is one of Ekabi's best menus! It's a cup of corn-flavored ice-cream with some popcorn on it. So yummy! Costs IDR 38k. 
6. Met my junior high school best friend accidentally on the way home. I was so excited to meet her again! We talked a lot on the side of the road (where we met), probably about 45 minutes until we finally decided to say bye xD 
7. Applied on Lifull Produk and got two packs of Rebo sunflower seeds. So lucky!
8. Went to the brand new popular cafe near my school, Kafe Rute 15. I went there with my best friend (who gave me the nendoroid). The place is getting popular more and more each day since their soft opening because the prices are pretty cheap. I'll review about this place soon! 
9. Childhood snack brought to a whole new level. Lekker is a kind of snack that looks like martabak but in smaller and thinner size. And when martabak is soft and tender, lekker is crispy and crunchy. It's usually found from street hawker, but now I found it from a black cart with a lot of flavor choices. Check out their instagram to know more: @lekkerstory (yes, they got instagram too!). 

By the way, to keep in touch with me when I can't update my blog more often, you can follow me on instagram (@christymnc). Ask for followback, because I usually don't follow people I don't know. Say hi and let me know your blog link so I can follow you back and check your blog! ;) 

[Instagram Highlights] August 2015

Hi guys! Sorry for being inactive recently. I'm getting busy with school assignments and exams. I think this month will get more hectic than before. But I'll try my best to keep replying your comments and visit your blogs! By the way, since it's the beginning of September (my birthday month!), please enjoy my August instagram highlights: 

1. Abundance of Katherines by John Green. I've mentioned about this book before in my previous posts, and yes, I haven't finished this book. Blame the endless school assignments.
2. Monster Iceblend: Chocolate Boo flavor! Monster Iceblend is a kind of ice-blend brand that provides 7 flavors for cold drinks and 2 for hot drinks. The cup design is so cute, isn't it? Bought it for IDR 8K and I'm getting addicted of it! 
3. Me and my boyfie took silly selfies about two weeks ago, and here's one of them. I can't tell how much I love him and how I love taking this kind of photos with him! 
4. Homemade spaghetti by my mum. May not as good as the pastas we eat in restaurants, but my mum's contains love in every bites! 
5. Cute puppy I met when I was walking on the way home. It's my neighbor's, and I can't hold back to take a picture of it because of its cuteness!
6. I finally upgraded to Windows 10! It's not too different with its previous version, 8.1, but I found some annoying changes like I can't make my camera full-screen anymore unless I change it to tablet version. 
7. Had a meet up with my best friend since elementary school at Nibbles. We talked about so many things and laughed a lot since it's been a long time since our last meeting. Can't wait to meet her again!
8. Black Spicy Burger and Milo Dinosaur at Nibbles! Nibbles is a new trending cafe near my school. I've always wanted to taste a black burger (which actually taste exactly the same with the regular one) so I went there for it. 
9. Customized ice-creams at Shiroppu Desserts. Shiroppu is a brand new dessert cafe near my home. They sell cute meals and desserts (most are desserts) with Japanese theme. You can have your customized ice-creams (choosing the cones, scoops, and toppings yourself!) and it only costs you IDR 6K each!
