Bonne Chance!

Friendship begins with a simple hello and it grows better over the time. But for every story has its ending, and so every meeting will somehow leads to a goodbye too. If we're lucky enough, we can endure the time long enough for a goodbye.

Today, one of my colleague is moving to another branch. It somehow makes me sad for losing a colleague like her. For me, she's someone who has been very helpful even without being asked to, someone who's easy to talk to and share stories with, and someone who's generous enough to share her snacks in the evening. Hihihi. Oh my...I'm gonna miss her for sure.

One thing I always believe that things always happen the way it should happen, however we wish it to happen reversely. Cos I believe everything happens for a reason and will eventually lead to a better future. So, I'm wishing her all the best for her next path.
Bonne Chance Ari! See you in the next event! :)

Xoxo,
Silvana

Cheers!

It's been a month since the birth of my best friend's daughter, Alessa. It's always been a touching moment to witnessing my best friend's big moments. Be it an engagement, a wedding, a maternity, etc,  because it always reminds me of how the friendship begins and grows.

I and Alessa's Mom, have been bestfriends since the elementary school, which means it's been 20 years around the sun of friendship and still counting. Can you imagine its two third of our age?! Such a long time, isn't it? 

Apparently we can be each other'a biography writers if one day we want to. Lol

Today is her big day and I just want to congratulate her for the full month celebration of her pretty baby Alessa

Looking forward to witnessing many other fabulous events to comee. Cheers to you. To me. To us. 

Love,

Click..Click!

Belakangan ini euphoria selfie melanda penduduk jaman sekarang tak peduli di benua manapun dan usia berapapun.

Didukung dengan kamera handphone yang semakin canggih, tool untuk selfie yang memadai dan berbagai social media yang semakin beragam, selfie semakin booming saja. Dan Indonesia menduduki juara pertama dalam kejuaraan selfie. Buktinya tongkat kecil untuk taking self pictures bernama #tongsis aka tongkat eksis cuma ada di Indonesia saja. Well...It's just my assumption actually, cuma pada saat traveling, para turis selalu pada bingung melihat keanehan benda satu ini, sambil menunjuk-nunjuk dan tertawa-tawa kearah tongsis. So I assume Indonesia as the trend setter country. Ciamik sekali ya Indonesia kita ini, teman! He...he...he.. Setiap lihat instagram, selalu saja ada foto dengan hashtag #selfie. Pertama kali melihat tidak ada keinginan untuk ber-selfie ria, tetapi lama-kelamaan, jadi ada keinginan untuk melakukan this narcistic thing called selfie. 

And soo here's a few of my selfie shots taken during my holiday. Me doing selfie..yay or nay? Lol

Hello under the Halloween tree! :)

Beberapa tahun belakangan ini selalu saja ada dekorasi unik Halloween di bulan Oktober.

Penasaran banget tentang sejarah Halloween, so I browsed a bit about halloween and this is what I found out.

Halloween berasal dari kata All Hallows adalah festival untuk memperingati orang-orang yang sudah meninggal di negara Barat, termasuk martir, santa, dan orang-orang suci lainnya. 

Ada beberapa tradisi yang dilakukan pada saat festival ini. Salah satunya adalah Trick and Treat yang dilakukan anak-anak kecil untuk meminta permen atau mereka akan mengeluarkan gerakan menakut-nakuti orang dewasa dengan kostum yang mereka kenakan. 

Kemudian ada juga lomba mengukir labu di jack-o-lanterns, pesta kostum, pesta kembang api, menonton film horor, bertukar cerita horor, apple bobbing, yaitu lomba makan apel dengan menggigigit apel itu di dalam baskom, dan masih banyak lainnya. 

Semuanya hanya kulihat melalui film atau dari membaca buku. Penasaran banget to witnessing the real Halloween   festival with my own eyes.

Kuberharap suatu saat nanti, akan datang kesempatan untuk mengunjungi negara barat pada saat Halloween, dan menyaksikan sendiri hiruk-pikuk festival Halloween yang melegenda ini. :)

CHEF

I watched 'Chef' today and I was enjoying the movie from the beginning until the end. 

It's a story of a chef losing his resraurant job because of a famous food blogger critics. Firstly he was confused and have no idea of what to do, meanwhile he is lack of money too. Later on, he agreed on his ex wife suggestion of opening his own food trunk business, El Jefe.

Since he used to be a very well known chef, his food trunk business directly becoming a hit, with the help of his son to publish the business into the social media. 

The end of the story, the food critics who made him lose his job, offering a partnership. And finally El Jefe becoming bigger, and the chef managed to piecing back his estranged family. 

Such an inspiring story that teaching us to never lose hope when there seems to be no hope. :)
