Over The Rainbow: a celebration of colours in stories, art, music and food

Last Sunday, Cereal Nation, the childrens' line where I work, held an event called Over The Rainbow: a celebration of colours in stories, art, music, and food. The event was intended to launch Cereal Nation's debut in the Aksara Kemang. At this time, Cereal Nation entered into a collaboration with Aksara Childrens's Book Club and The Chef Nation to hold a workshop for children, among others, there are cooking workshop, illustration workshop, and crafting workshop. There was also a storytelling session by Melly Sutjitro a.k.a Mellyberry filled with cheerful music by Ken Jenie of Jirapah and Punang Adiprana from Whiteboard Journal.
Here's the poster and photographs from the event:

Tale of The Mopish Student

So tomorrow is the bloody effing deadline of my final project which is usually called TA (or 'Terong Antariksa' as said by my colleague Rinal). Substantively, this is not the final deadline but a preview deadline of the visual judgement.

However, deadline is never terrible but horrible.

I am not eggsagerrating,

but,

Soon my boarding house room would be a pool of tear hair

I had great hair-fall due to the stressful task whilst Mars is marking its branch on my face as the consequences of the lack of sleep time and the unstable hormones.

It's thirteen minutes to 1 am, yet still I'm working on my final project, illustrating short stories of Rain Chudori's. I re-reading Rain's 'Smoking with God' for the uncounted numbers of times, silhouettes of my father and mother appears on my mind abruptly, I can't bear to hold my drip drop teardrop.

I miss my parents.

Perchance, this is my most hubbub post ever and I'm really sorry for being so absurd.

Anyway, here's a preview of my final project:

And I shall tell my gratitude to Joanna Neborsky,  Frida Kahlo, Nickolas Murray, David La Chapelle Bjork, Shel Silverstein, Hannah Hoch, Spice Girls, multicoloured plastic ponies that once appear in my dream, also the zombinocchio, Oom Oscar Motuloh, Farrokh Bulsara, Beetle Juice, Pampam, Mr. Willy Wonka, Sammy Davis, Jr, Roodkapje, and Inyi the bunny & Popsicle the green coloured elf, for such inspirations. And for my parents and good friends, thanks for the support, you know who you are.

I am about to print the dummy at the dawn.

wishy-washy

indubitably wishy-washy.

the blood that flowing in my veins

dear mum & pop,


happy 31st anniversary
whatever happens, whatever happens,
both of your is blood flowing in my veins.
I am somewhat like a potion,
that made in a single cauldron by
a wizard and a witch.


love,


your daughter

lost in consciousness

there once was a girl
who was in love with junk
she looked very quirk
and she smelled like plastic and sometimes like playdoh

she was always flat,
because she spent too much time with the toys





this is actually a college project of Mister Bagus Endarto
viel geluk Meneer!

mooie sprookje

Di hari-hari yang sunyi
Kutunggu datangnya
Peri yang baik hati
Menabur keajaiban
Menerbangkan aku kesana

Kinderdijk

_{O Kinderdijk O Kinderdijk,
There is sweet air on the side of yours,
Scent of wheat that I breathe
You are the greatest among Dutch
Kinderdijk....}

S is for Splendiferous Sea Circus

Upon my short trip to Bali last week, I took a visit to my favourite restaurant 'Sea Circus'. Sea Circus never fail to impress me with its whimsical decoration, its collection of vintage tin toys, old barbies, matryoshka, whimsical wall decor and dreamy wall paints makes a marvellous ambience. I believe the owner loves Willy Wonka and Mary Poppins like I do :D

I wanna go there again and again and again and again! pretty soonish! :D
