Ian Devie Feather Art Painting

Oh My God,
this one is awesome.
Ian Devie is a very talented artist doing a fine feather art. He is using feathers collected during the regal birds’ annual moult from a swannery close to his living place. He once spent almost four years perfecting his craft.

One of my favorite from his creation is this work depicting bullfinches, which is, unsurprisingly, called Bullfinch Five Feather. Davie was inspired to paint feathers when he saw the feather art of the Maori people in New Zealand (thecontaminated.com).

and this, become my inspiration of the month
*dedicated to my special sister - approaching seventeen

Mom : "Hm.. it's going to be one and half or two more month"
Me : "What is it?"
Mom : "You! You'll get a job in one and half or two more months"
Me : "hmph.. really?"
Mom : "Just wait and see" *with her confident intonation that unfortunately she used a lot lately*

Me : "Ok, let's hope I'll get a proper one this time, the one with the big money coming"
Mom : *smile*

Free Trade with China

As in my home country, Indonesia, the use of Blackberry as a mobile phone is kind of a must now..
and i must confess, that me, is one of the victim as well..

But now, the trend has expanded,
doesn't matter if it's not a Blackberry,
as far as it is "qwerty" keypad, got same track ball and some of it has also got some touch screen facility..

This one shocked me the most..
Have a deep look, and compare it with the Blackberry Bold 9000
beside the color and its lackness of BBM (thanks god, otherwise its going to be alot more frustrating) can you spot a major different on it?


Am not one of them who confront the free trade with China starting this year,

Jolie's Tattoos - Stories Behind Her Growing Collection

I love Jolie~ I always love her, besides the fact that some people thinks she ruined Aniston's lovely marriage (i totally out of discussion bout this one)

Part of the reasons why I love her is her passion in tattoos..
As an actress, she is not common.. She is one of a kind and im luving it.. =)
For every reason that she got, she has now at least a dozen tattoos over her body and she also has quiet a lot of experience with tattoo removal..

List of Angelina Jolie's Tattoos:
1. "know your rights" - Under her neck, between her shoulders
This one is taken from the song title of her favorite band


2. Sanskrit blessing in the Cambodian language - On her left shoulder
This tattoo was done by a tattoo artist Noo (aka Sompong). She did this tattoo to protect her Cambodian adopted daughter from bad luck.
It also covers her old tattoo in Japanese character which means "death"

and here is the translation:
May your enemies run far away from you.
If you acquire riches, may they remain yours always.
Your beauty will be that of Apsara.
Wherever you may go, many will attend, serve and protect you, surrounding you on all sides.

3. Arabic script on her right forearm
Some people believe that it means "strength of will" but some deny it by saying that it means "determination" instead


4. Jolie dedicated this tattoo as a prayer to her mother
This prayer comes from Tennessee Williams : "A prayer for the wild at heart, kept in cages.
"

5. She does not believe to the myth of 13 as a bad luck, so she got this one on her left underarm


6. Cross tattoo with a Latin phrase close to her hip


7. Longitude and latitude coordinates which represents the locations where her kids were adopted from on her left arm (it also cover up her "Billy Bob" - former husband tattoo..

Maddox (N11° 33' 00" E104° 51' 00")
Zahara (N09° 02' 00" E038° 45' 00")
Pax (N10° 46' 00" E106° 41' 40")
and where her and Brad Pitt's children were born at - Shilo (S22° 40' 26" E014° 31' 40")
& twins Vivienne & Knox (N43° 41' 21" E07° 14' 28")

8. Large tiger tattoo on her bottom back - my fave

On her trip to Thai, she decided to get a traditional Thai style tattoo with a large tiger design.. The process was done manually using hand.. She also covered her originally two tiny tribal-style designs on either side of her spine and a small dragon tattoo..

P.S. One of the dream that my bf always wanted to do is having a tattoo.. ha!

Never Knew I Needed YOU

Been separated for a month, and we got 53 more days to go.. *ciayo*
and my BF gimme this song..
really nice really cute, enjoy~



Ne-Yo feat. Cassandra Steen - Never Knew I Needed

For the way you changed my plans
For being the perfect distraction
For the way you took the idea that I have
Of everything that I wanted to have
And made me see there was something missing, oh yeah

For the ending of my first begin
(Ooh, yeah yeah, ooh, yeah yeah)
And for the rare and unexpected friend
(Ooh, yeah yeah, ooh, yeah yeah)
For the way you're something that I'd never choose
But at the same time, something I don't wanna lose
And never wanna be without ever again

You're the best thing I never knew I needed
So when you were here I had no idea
You the best thing I never knew I needed
So now it's so clear, I need you here always

My accidental happily
(Ever after)
The way you smile and how you comfort me
(With your laughter)
I must admit you were not a part of my book
But now if you open it up and take a look
You're the beginning and the end of every chapter

You're the best thing I never knew I needed
So when you were here I had no idea
(When you were here)
You the best thing I never knew I needed
(That I needed)
So now it's so clear, I need you here always
(Now it's so clear)

Who knew that I could be
(Who knew that I could be)
So unexpectedly
(So unexpectedly)
Undeniably happier
Sitting with you right here, right here next to me
Girl, you're the best

You're the best thing I never knew I needed
(Said I needed)
So when you were here I had no idea
(When you were here)
(Said I had no idea)
You're the best thing I never knew I needed
(That I needed)
So now it's so clear I need you here always
(Now it's so clear)
(So clear, so clear, I need you always)

Now it's so clear, I need you here always
