Chasing Intan

music world has lost another legend.. Etta James  passed away on age 73.  I've actually been thinking that I will use At Last as my wedding song.. Well here it is.  RIP Etta James .  Amy now will take care of you. 

Is there any single person on earth (who knows about Amy's story) that not crying while listen to this song? "A song for you" was recorded three years ago in only ONE take. This is actually the first time I embraced flaw in a song. Totally raw and honest. Cos she always sings from her heart and we knew her stories. Her producer said Amy sang it with loads of tears in her eyes and when she finished it, her eyeliner went all over her face.. He said, "thank God I pushed the record button." The song was very emotional. I even cried when hear it, like I can feel her pain. Oh sweetheart, God rest your soul wherever you are xx Miss you untold.

Seeing all those famous faces walk the red carpet with flawless skin, makes me wonder what do they apply on their skin?  With my minimum acknowledgement in beauty world, I decided to walk into one of make up store that currently have a make over. They finally open first flagship store in Bandung, complete with make up supplies for professional make up artist (MUA). So the makeover thingy is a promotional stint. I desperately wanna know what's the secret of flawless skin. I have normal (tend to oily) skin with quite big pores around nose area. Using foundation only doesn't help much. It doesn't cover perfectly. I thought, MUFE is one of my fav brand too.. So why not give it a shot? I know the daily treatment ritual is as important to maintain flawless skin. I'm using Clinique as my main facial treatment and recently I tried la Mer. I've been using  Crème de la Mer  for a month now as my night cream, in hoping to get healthier and pore-less skin. Baby steps, it...

hello there year 2011 , sorry we didn't get along this year. i know good things are waiting for me around the corner.  however thank you for the lessons learned even though some i learned in a hard way.  now i am 100% ready to embrace the new day and new phase of my life.  no resolutions in a making, cos i don't feel the need to write one as i mostly ended up broken my own vow. (still wanna lose weight tho.)  later 2011, welcome 2012. happy new year peeps! xx PS: I got engaged ! PS: There's one thing I want to achieve in 2012 -- happiness Since happiness is one word with big meaning, so I quote this from Gandhi.. "Happiness is what you think, what you say, and what you do in harmony" Let's start this new year with positive attitude, such as avoided hangover from what could have been a merriest party of the year :D
