1870's

Bergelut dengan dunia di tahun 1870-an, saya butuh mesin waktu

Wrestle with the world in 1870, I need time machine

Let's Get Our Hands Busy!

Sebagai perempuan pada umumnya, sebenarnya saya sering gemas melihat benda-benda lucu dan unik (tapi saya ga tertarik sama warna pink). Sering kali benda-benda yang lucu itu ga selalu fungsional dan harganya mahal.

As a woman in common, I also love to see funny and unique stuff (but I'm not actually attracted with pink). Funny stuff is not always functional and usually expensive.

Ada satu benda yang belakangan ini saya butuhkan, tapi saya ga mau keluar uang :p Jadi saya putuskan untuk membuatnya saja! Benda yang dibutuhkan sederhana dan hanya kemampuan jahit dasar yang digunakan. Dan lagi, kita bisa menentukan sendiri seperti apa bentuk dan warnanya!

There is one thing that I needed lately, but I don't want to spend my money on it :p So, I decided to make it! The tools that needed to make this thing is simple and only basic sewing skill that used. And, we can choose the shape and the color that we like!

Voila! Jadilah kantong untuk hard disk!

Voila! It's a hard disk pouch!

Alat dan bahan yang dibutuhkan:

Tools and things that needed:

Sayangnya, saya ga sempat memotret langkah-langkah pembuatannya, tapi kurang lebih seperti ini:

Unfortunately, I couldn't make it to take the step by step picture, but this is the steps:

1. Ukuran kain dan busa ditentukan berdasarkan dua kali ukuran panjang benda yang akan disimpan di dalamnya. Beri jarak tambahan kurang lebih 5 cm untuk lebarnya.

The size of fabric and foam that needed is twice the length of the things that you would like to keep inside of it. Add 5 cm for the width size.

2. Tumpuk busa di atas kain kemudian lipat menjadi dua dengan busa di lapisan luar.

Place the foam on the fabric and fold it into two parts with the foam outside.

3. Jahit kedua sisi samping.

Sew both side.

4. Potong dan simpulkan tali karet dengan panjang yang disesuaikan untuk bagian atas kantong.

Cut and tie the rubber lace with any length that you like for the top of the pouch.

5. Lingkarkan tali karet pada bagian atas kantong kemudian lipat keluar kurang lebih 2 cm lapisan kain dan busa. Jahit agar dapat membuat ruang untuk tali karet.

Round up the rubber lace on the top of the pouch the fold out the fabric and the foam about 2 cm. Sew to make a room for the rubber lace.

6. Balikkan sisi busa ke dalam sehingga lapisan kain menjadi bagian luar.

Fold back the pouch, so the fabric will be on outside.

Waktu yang dibutuhkan: kurang lebih 1 jam

Needed time: about 1 hour.

Proyek ini cukup menyenangkan untuk mengisi waktu luang dan bisa melatih kesabaran. Sungguh.

This project is quite fun to spend your spare time, also it will test up your patience. Really.

When You Have to Decide

Hasil pemikiran karena tidak bisa tidur semalaman adalah... Saya memutuskan untuk membuat post dwibahasa! Sebenarnya udah lama mau bikin blog ini jadi dwibahasa tapi rasanya masih belum sreg hingga kemarin malam.

My last night result of thought is.... I decided to create a bilingual post! Actually, it's been a long time that I want to make this blog with bilingual feature, but I never reach the agreement with myself until last night.

Kenapa dwibahasa? Sebenarnya penyampaian ide dengan bahasa Indonesia itu jauh lebih mudah, tapi keinginan untuk melatih bahasa Inggris lebih besar :p post dwibahasa ini mungkin lebih banyak pembaca yang dapat dijangkau dan semangat saya untuk terus berbagi jadi semakin besar!

Why bilingual? Sharing the ideas with Bahasa is much more easier (since it was my mother of language) but my wants to practice English is bigger :p But maybe, this bilingual post will reach much more reader and my spirit to share becomes much more bigger!

Bahasa Inggrisnya sendiri mungkin belum tentu sama persis dengan bahasa Indonesia karena kemampuan bahasa Inggris saya yang masih patah-patah. Mohon maaf kalau ada kesalahan dalam penulisan.
Maybe the English version is not really similar to the Bahasa version because of my ability in English is not quite good. I beg your pardon if there's any mistake in  writing.

It's Jakarta's 8th Toys and Comics Fair!

Do You Like to Play A Game?

I just grabbed that picture from my tumblr :)

Recently, I've done recycled my sis tote bag... Still need some practice with the stitching :D

So, in this post I want to share some games that I would like to play. I'm not really a hardcore player although I've tried to play World of Warcraft (if this could considered as hardcore, haha). I love to play a game that has a stories, so I'll do my best to uncover the ending.

I used to play Nancy Drew series when I was on senior high school. I really want to play that series again but it's hard to find the Macintosh series here. I wish I have a paypall account, that would make my life easier... to spend my money. Glek! :p

And... This is the 'Delicious' new series, Emily's True Love! The title sounds too girly for me because I'm not into that kind of stuffs. Also, I usually love to play horror hidden object games than time management games, but this game is an exception. I love the stories, I love the graphics, I love the music, and I love how this game make me feel like having a family. Sounds crazy but that's how I feel. If you want to try, click this link!

Delicious has several series and I've been played the first series when I was high school. I never think that I will play this game again after the series have been growing like this. It has a very high detail picture and gestures. I suggest to enjoy the scene every scene then rushing for the score.

If you think I only play a cute graphic game... I'm not because I can't wait for the next Mystery Case Files series, Escapes from Ravensheart!

Things just got serious! Mystery Case Files series have been turn out way too different from the first series, but I like it. The first series of the game is look like this.

But, I do love them all :)

Imagine how these games growing from one series to another as long as I going older couldn't stop me to play! I mean, who doesn't love to play? Haha... Playing just give me another place to escape from my duty.

Also, I love to play this kind of games, traveling!

Biggest Little Adventure has an unique story plot, about a woman that never go to anywhere and a traveler man whom accidentally shrink because the strange experiment from the woman's uncle. (I just really bad with remembering names). Both of them going around the world to find the cure for the man. How romantic *raising one eyebrow*

Well, that's a wrap! I'll share more if I found another great game, maybe I should start to save some for buy a PSP? Or maybe a Wii? (I can't help myself when watching The Beatles Rockband trailer, haha).

Writing in this blog just give me a strength to back for my job. I must finished them before they make another line of pile in my head! Wish you all that read my blog will have another good game to play! ;)

What I'm Being Busy For

This is my final project. Illustrated book of 'Around the World in 80 Days' by Jules Verne. Right now I got frustrated by the paper but I can't wait to step on the visual.

This illustrated book is splendid! I got it for only IDR 20.000 whether the original price is IDR 85.000 :B

Working on this drawing is my pleasure escape when I got stressed up.

I wish your days is better than me! :D
