    Heather from Lilac & Lace!

    As you may have known, this month my blog is sponsored by six awesome people (look at my sidebar!) Heather is one of them. She is the girl behind Lilac & Lace. Let’s check out my interview with her 🙂

    Hey there, Heather! Tell us a bit of yourself 🙂
    Hello! I am a professional dancer, living in Los Angeles with my husband of three years. I love scrap-booking, art journaling and crafts of all kind, but I especially enjoy blogging and photography.

    What is Lilac & Lace about? When did you start it?
    Lilac and Lace is a lifestyle blog and I keep it pretty personal. But as an avid dancer, dance aficionado and ballet instructor, I also use it as another way to share my passion for dance with others. I started it a few years ago mainly because I was bored at work, but it also served as a way to keep our family over seas up to date with our daily lives.

    Do you have any advice for other bloggers on how to keep inspired and keep yourself away from blogger’s block?
    It’s tough to keep up the blogging sometimes (I just had a bad spell of blogger’s block myself!) I think the best way to ward off a lack of inspiration on what to blog about is to just write honestly. Ultimately you have to do it for yourself and I think if you aren’t too worried about posts you’ll naturally write what matters to you…And that usually makes for the most interesting blogs. Don’t sweat it too much and it will usually pass. 😉

    You’re a dancer. When did you start dancing?
    I started dancing when I was three and I’m still at it!

    Is there any other thing you want to share with us?
    Hmmm… Diet Coke is my favorite beverage and I am seriously terrified of spiders and flying. But I love blogging and meeting new bloggy buddies! I hope you’ll come visit me and I also just want to thank Putdar for letting me share all this on her fantabulous blog! I am so honored and lucky to have her as a blog friend!

    Thank you for sharing with us, Heather! And you, guys… You should check out Heather’s blog and her shop too 🙂

    (I’m still open for August’s blog button swap. If you are interested, please visit this page to find out more.)

    Sincerely,
    Putdar.

    Getting the ticket for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 premiere AND a strategic seat

    and this…

    Last night I read this tweet and got waaaayy too excited that I was almost hyperventilated (haha!). Deathly Hallows part 2 is finally here, guys! In Indonesia! The premiere will be on the 29th, but the ticket can already be purchased today. So Angga and I went to Braga. We bought two tickets and then I died…

    No way.

    Sincerely,
    Putdar.

    in my playlist tonight: ABBA

    Posted in musics by

    My friends say that I was born in the wrong era. I should’ve been born in the 70s. Why? Because I love (and I mean I LOOOVVVEEE) ABBA. Poor kids my age don’t know them. Luckily I have a cousin who loves ABBA and she introduced me to their songs when I was 12. Seven years and I’m still in love with them.

    And tonight, my friends, I’m gonna make you love them too! You should listen to these songs and leave a comment telling me what you think about my favourite ABBA’s songs 🙂

    Ah… Feels so good to be back again. I still can’t tell you what happened a few days ago, but here’s a hint: it really broke my heart. Thank God, I have very wonderful friends! They took me to fun fun FUN getaways 🙂

    On Friday, Entin took me to Ciwalk

    There was an event held by MNCTV where we could find characters from cartoon series aired in MNCTV. We took pictures with Shaun the Sheep, Upin & Ipin, and many more. After that, we bought donuts in J.Co 🙂

    On Saturday, Mijra and I went to WS Gatot Soebroto

    It was kinda hard, actually, to go to WS yesterday. It made me think about certain things that broke my heart. But I went there with Mijra, so yeah… She entertained me with her silly-ness. Haha! 😀

    On Sunday, Angga and I went to Padalarang

    We took train to Padalarang (his first train ever!) and went to Science Museum in Kota Baru Parahyangan. After that, we went to Situ Ciburuy and had lunch there. The museum was fun, but Situ Ciburuy was out of my expectation. Haha! Going there was such a waste of energy. We actually walked to get there from Tagog, can you believe? Haha! But it was fun, though… 🙂

    I’m so glad to have friends like you, guys! *hugs*

    Sincerely,
    Putdar.
