    “sing a new song, chiquitita!”

    Posted in Uncategorized by

    I used to be a singer back when I was in kindergarten and elementary school. I won some singing contests. Never the first place, but still I got the trophies.

    (If you notice, I wore the same dress in those pictures. That was my favourite dress. My mum bought it when I was in kindergarten and the last time I wore it was when I was in the fourth grade. The dress is now in my wardrobe, waiting for the day when I pass it to my daughter πŸ™‚ )

    I stopped singing when I was in junior high school. My voice changed. Now nobody would believe that I was a singer.

    But, this afternoon, I signed myself up for an audition to be a member of students’ choir. I was so nervousssss…

    Read from bottom to top

    All the other candidates sang good songs. I was so nervous that I kept changing my mind. I was going to sing Ten 2 Five’s I Will Fly, and then I changed my mind and I would sing Marcel’s Firasat instead. But in the last seconds, I changed my mind again. I ended up singing Ebiet G. Ade’s Nyanyian Rindu. After singing in front of the whole crowd of students’ choir, I stormed out the room. I still don’t know the result. I think I don’t wanna know. Haha! *nervous laugh*

    Sincerely,
    Putdar.

    See? I’m gone again! I didn’t even post Quoted Saturday this week. What have I done? Why do I keep neglecting my sweet little blog?

    Kay. I think I need to take a deep breath now… *sigh*

    I’ll try to go back to write on daily basis about my boring life. Cheer me up, universe!!!

    Anyway, a few weeks ago, I won this giveaway at Punk Projects. The prize is a set of postcards from Alla Fironova. On Thursday, the cards finally arrived at my door. Here they are:

    They all are pretty. And yes, I think I can smell Europe on them! Thank you, Alla πŸ™‚

    Also, I want to tell you that sponsorship for October is opened! Do you want to do a button swap with me? Visit this page for more info.

    And one more thing before I go… I finally become an author of blowupi.info! My first writing is up on the site. It’s in Indonesian, but that’s why they created Google Translate, right? ;D

    Sincerely,
    Putdar.

    a brief update (do you miss me?)

    Posted in college by
    Yes, that is sarong I’m wearing

    It’s the third week of the fifth semester, and we already have to do a school observation, not to mention chapter reports and other group assignments. And my ‘zombie week’ just started yesterday. I’ve to do those assignments accompanied by stomachache, mood swing, and all the cravings. God, help me… (-_-“)

    By the way, I’ve created another mixtape for you to download. But I need a fast internet connection to upload  it. I guess I need to go to KFC and connect to the WiFi there. Hehe… Just wait, guys πŸ™‚

    How was your Monday & Tuesday so far?

    Sincerely,
    Putdar.
