just a lil bit about my favorit band Captain Jack

Captain Jack, just a bad name, tacky, and slightly odd,
but we chose this name as a place we go home and dump all the emotions and thoughts from the terkonsep until a slob.

Somehow we do not feel that we are a band, perhaps because some bands contest that was on TV that we think no more than a monkey mask and show it to be the benchmark for young people today that that's a band, collected without any compatibility, with no strong bonds of friendship, without any sense of togetherness while struggling from point zero. We have a sense of togetherness that.

We are not children with colorful hair style filled with gel, we do not dress funky and we do not care about anything funky sense, we are also not quasi-naughty kids who get drunk every day just to feel her rockstar, we're just kids ordinary lives in ordinary life with the problems faced by ordinary people and we are angry with all the existing habits.
We are what We Are, We do what WE DO, eventhought We Do not know who We are

CAPTAIN JACK is strength, unity, and honesty, both in work and in everyday life.

Born in Yogyakarta on December 4, 1999 through a union of hearts, emotions, life experiences and desires that lead into the art world CAPTAIN JACK is full of creativity.

In his songs, CAPTAIN JACK feel, ask, express, and discuss all forms of everyday reality that consciously or unconsciously, that accompany the human journey following the turnaround time is sometimes faster than humans step itself.

When people are competing to tell you about love, CAPTAIN JACK presenting another side of human experience and life journey that often collide between desire and reality, pain and sadness that are stored, pop-pop of emotion, and the messages that remind people that life is not a soap opera, life is not something that is always beautiful.

CAPTAIN JACK tinged music roaring sound distortion, pounding beat powerful, harmonious with a spicy but honest lyrics. Bands such as Staind, Chevelle, Silverchair, Static X, and the like have become poison in the blood CAPTAIN JACK who calls himself the band Nu-Rock.

hiiiihihihiih :)

Hello guys! How are you? Hope you doing okay! Are you missing me already? Hehehe , I hope you do. Nope today you will not find me in any fashion shoots, but I'll do something else. Just like ten billion people out there, curiosity is in my blood. It’s in our blood. I don't know why, but don't we all love to take a peek in someone’s secret? I don't know it's just me or you do too, when I'm in my car and when the red is light, and there's another car who stops right beside my car, and in that car there is this boy who just look into the windows, looking so sad I always wonder and questioning, what in his mind? What is he thinks about? What makes him so sad? Curiosity...curiosity... is that happen to you too? Or when I saw this cute little cat in the corner of the road, soaked up in the rain always curious is he or she cold? Is she/he still having mom to come home to? Is someone out there are crying and running in the rain trying to find her/him? Again curiosity...

Hehehe based on number of question in my formspring I kinda know that there's so many of my you who have interest or have some curiosity in my private life, for some question I do answer it, but so sorry for some question that in my opinion quite too private and over the line, so sorry you won't get any answer for me. My lips are sealed. hehehe. But since makes you happy is something I love to do, I would love to share this for you, the most private thing a person can have( Nooo..... I won't read my diary for you, not in a million years! hehehe. ) Then again you'll be bored to death if I do so, my diary is only full of my daily craps, you will fall a sleep just when I read the opening hahahaha .... So I will share something that more fun to see, maybe with this you'll get more hint of what kind of person I am, get to know me a little better, make you less curious. hehehe.

Like I said in my previous post, I've got daddy who always been an adventurous man, and as his travelers mate I have to be prepare every time, I learn to pack my own bag, learn to prepare my own thing. Make sure I won't curse myself when I get where we head, so whenever we go, this is some that I bring with me, some stuff that I cannot live without. Hehehe.

I present you
My travelers bag!

   what is inside? tadaaaaaa.....

Wait, of course my sweet travel suitcase won't travels alone, he's got this cute furry pink bag as a company ( don't ask me why I have so many pink stuff in my suitcase, that is what happening when you asked your too girlie sister bought stuff for you... sigh... hehehehe, but I must admit it's quite cute)

I Say Hello

It's almost 2011, peeps..how do you feel? :)

I'd like to welcome the new year with a new spirit yet the same person inside...let us all make progress, help more people, gain more achievements, maintain a good health, embrace changes, while keeping our values & beliefs strong.

Let us be comfortable with who we are, what we have, and we what we are capable of. Let us reject any negative influences, and remain positive and humble every time.

Let us never feel inferior nor superior, just content, tolerant and grateful.

Let us always be true to ourselves.

Happy welcoming 2011, everyone. Keep 100% original..:)

GELANG 2011

A Punk Provocateur Tries A New Tack

We’ve done so much with punk culture,” Eddie Borgo said in New York this week. “I wanted to do something outside of that.” Inspiration came by way of a particular friend—one who just happens to make leather harnesses, latex masks, and gear for bondage enthusiasts. And while that scene isn’t one that Borgo says appeals to him personally, professionally it’s proven to be a fertile inspiration.

He’s not the only one who’s gone to the manacled well. Provocateurs have long had a history of using the tropes of bondage in their work, from Mapplethorpe through Madonna. (The punks, too, it should be said, borrowed liberally from bondage culture.) But it’s Madonna’s famous Sex book in particular—art-directed by Fabien Baron, and with images of the Material Girl by Steven Meisel—was Borgo’s particular jumping-off point. “With Fabien, [Madonna] pulled that sexual subculture into the mainstream,” he said, adding that it was at about the time of the book’s publishing that her raunchy “Justify My Love” video was famously banned from MTV.

While the punk elements aren’t gone from the collection, they’re now keeping company with pieces like restraint-inspired cuffs and a recurrent padlock motif. But despite its after-hours inspiration, the new direction is proving more salable than ever before. The Spring range has even come early to an important new retailer—Net-a-Porter, which has just begun carrying the line. (The D-ring cuff, above, is $225; the Bullet cuff, below, has already sold out.) “This collection is the most severe in its concept, but it’s come across as the most feminine,” Borgo explained. “For me, that’s a total success.”

—Matthew Schneier

Finn And Dandy

The countdown to Christmas is advancing by the hour, but there’s still time for gift-shopping—assuming you can duck out of the office and make up to Madison Avenue. There you’ll find Finn, Barneys’ new discovery. The jewelry line is designed by Candice Pool and Soraya Silchenstedt, who drew on their childhood sense of whimsy for their wares—the Love Knot ring (left), Schildenstedt told the retailer, originated as a third-grade class project. The idea may be humble, but the materials aren’t: Barneys is carrying the ring in 18k gold ($645), rose gold with pink sapphires ($1,770), and white gold with diamonds ($2,770). If money is no object, stack all three.

Prada To China, A New Face (Maybe) At Paco Rabanne, “Mr. Armani’s Probably Gonna Kill Me,”

Prada is Beijing bound. The Italian label is the latest to take its show on the road to China, where Miuccia Prada will present her Spring ‘11 women’s collection (left)—with a few pieces created especially for the event—on January 22. 


The rumor mill is churning again, and this time it’s about the house of Paco Rabanne. Is Indian designer Manish Arora—a spangle-favoring boundary-pusher championed by Browns’ Joan Burstein—slated to helm the house’s return to ready to wear and revive its fortunes?

Victoria Beckham’s bags apparently cause as much of a stir as her tabloid-friendly goings and comings in L.A. Her new accessories debuted this morning on Net-A-Porter—and sold out before noon. 

Speaking of hard-to-get accessories, two lucky Parisian fans walked away from a Lady Gaga show with the Lady’s own mirrored Armani heels. “Mr. Armani’s probably gonna kill me,” she said, before tossing them into the audience. Video right this way.

And collab-a-minute Opening Ceremony has just announced its next group project: A line with Maison Martin Margiela. For the real challenge, we want to see Humberto and Carol team up with the reclusive Monsieur Margiela himself.

The 2011 Sweatshirt Outlook: Strong

2010 may go down in fashion history as the year we reclaimed our gym clothes. Designers embraced the mélange sweatshirt, which almost immediately became the piece to have. In Europe, Dries Van Noten kicked off the trend withhis elegantly urbane Fall ‘10 show. So did Isabel Marant, a longtime sweatshirt enthusiast, who gussied hers up with disco sparkle. In New York, the Marc Jacobs opened with a sleeveless sweatshirt on his then-new discovery Tati Cotliar, and Alexander Wang sent out plenty of big-shouldered versions at his football-themed Fall show.

Since then, the fever has raged on. While girls on a budget have discovered that The Gap makes a pretty serviceable version, big spenders went wild for Bally’s three-figure version, one of the new ideas from the label’s new designers, Graeme Fidler and Michael Herz, who showed them for Spring. And just yesterday, in his pre-fall collection, Phillip Lim debuted his own new take (left)—one that was inspired by the slouchy sweats his assistants were wearing to the office. His model comes embellished with crystals for a piece that’ll play anywhere. “Smart move,” wrote Nicole Phelps. With its new glamour, it’s as ready for the office as the after-party—and officially emancipated from the gym.

bumbling boo

             it's something on my mind that bothers me. i feel like nothing but writing. my old passion and compassion. i've been living my life and spend much time to read and write. i believe words have the power to cure. rather than waiting for time to heal, i better write and write the whole expression of my heart. i do believe in coincidence and bad luck. and i believe my luck doesn't last anymore, bad luck took over my life these days.

it's just like LIFE. Life isn't perfect like people always think. it's a mess, tho some people insist on calling life as A BEAUTIFUL MESS. but is it really what it is? i think you people deceive yourself into thinking that way. i know beautiful things exist, but i believe hatred, war and fight are on the top of people's life. there's no such things as fairytales tho i've tricked myself and forced myself to believe that unicorns, pixies and fairies exist. flying with pixie dusts, swimming with mermaid and watch how princesses end up with happily ever after story. but reality?

reality is bitter. it is pain. it is the toxic that poison your life. you are driven into the wild thoughts believing happy ending exist. i do believe if you read my note, you would think i'm sort of a non-believer. but i do believe that we live to glorify GOD and then die. we end up in heaven with HIM and all His angels. well, i'm so looking forward to it.

I'm so sick of naiveness, loneliness, boredom and pain. i want something better. i know my life is not that beautiful and holy, tho maybe i don't deserve a single spot in heaven. but i do believe that God created me for reasons. reasons i haven't but will realize.

people say, "when life knocks you down, hold onto something and rise again" but isn't that too corny? cheesy? that means, YOU ARE WEAK. come on! if you depend on something every time you're down , every time you fall. how on earth you could get up if you're alone? and if you keep hang onto something. when it's gone, you will stumble and fall again. and are you going to wait for another something to come so you can hold onto another something then rise? hell no! figure out how to rise! brace yourself. make yourself the best in the world. you are SOMETHING that deserve to be treated better.

do you believe in destiny? i don't think i can anymore. when someone say, "i'm destined to be your best friend!" but, don't they let you down for couple of times. do you find it hard to get up and get over it? i found it funny, but acquaintances are sometimes better. they won't drive you nuts? this whole system of thinking has gone wrong for centuries. and someone should take responsibility, but i just don't know who.

but, don't get me wrong. i know i'm inexplicably weird and strange. don't you? if you don't, read this : i'm okay if my boyfriend cheated on me, as long as he's not my husband. isn't that silly? but yea, it's true. i don't bother keeping my boyfriend to stick with me all the time, well, they have their life and we're not tied by oath. back on track, don't get me wrong. i'm not always a pessimists. i'll turn like this just during the hideous torture i get.

keeping me away from my friends and whom i love is just worse than water torture. or any other torture. for instances, walk til your feet bleed. i know it sounds so horrible and painful, but at least you will be only physically in pain. but when you're let to be alone, it's like you are mentally and physically sick. in pain. it's really pain in the ass. i know i make mistakes, huge mistakes. but, WE DO MISTAKES as PART OF GROWING UP. well, i'm still alright of getting punished tho, but just not this hard? everyone does that. even more, the ones i thought would never do such naughty things, they actually do. they really do. there will never be flawless daughter nor son.


how can you learn how to bike well if you never fall? how can you learn how to swim if you never drown? there's nothing instant in this world, really nothing. as this is my spontaneous note, i hope you guys mind this note and don't take this too seriously. i just need something to unleash the beast inside me. i have this issue of being grounded and it's day-6.

to all parents in the world, remember when you're a child, have you ever said this repetitiously? "i will never treat my children like that" or "i will never ever make my children feel the way i feel"? it's just something my mind impulsively comes out with. now remember, i mean nothing in this note. it's just, my fingers just cooperate too well with my brain, together they create these all words fit together. like they belong together, next to each other, creating sentences, paragraphs, and the whole thing. no offense everybody. this is me. this is who i am.

 

NAIL ART

Hi guys! Christmas time,  mistletoe and wine are all played a part over the busy weekend,  just catching up on everything! I also worked a LOT in the new store and slightly wish I knew some kids as the River Island kidswear stuff is so cute!! I'm trying to start revising but there aren't quite enough hours in the day yet, but I did hit the library to get loads of books. The librarian was like 'golly gosh your nails!! I've never seen anything like it!' and had a little heart attack haha! After a week of plain nails I had to go a bit mental with all the things I got on ebay and some phone sticker gems that I got at Affleck's Palace in Manchester. Btw you have to get rid of the stickiness of stickers if you want to glue them down or else it doesn't work! Wet the back of them with a baby-wipe to take it away.

Excuse my dry cuticles- they're covered in glue! On the little finger I tried do cover it totally in bling but I think it would look way better if the polish underneath was the same colour as the gems and if they were in straight lines! Nails like this are seriously easy to do though, all you need is nail glue and the stuff! I obviously am not very accurate. I think gel or even acrylic nails just make even and larger bases so the polish lasts longer and you have more space to work with. In an ideal world I'd have every nail like the ring finger but covered totally in nail art! Another tip is to stick to one colour scheme and either cool or warm colours as they just look more uniform and pretty when you're flashing your hands around. Speaking of tans, looool to my fake tan hands! When I went out last week (was fab nights btw!) I had a fake tan, nails, lashes and tried out my fake hair! I backcombed the extensions and cut them short so they were about four inches long- it provided great volume when I clipped them underneath my top layer of hair! Also a tip is to use some soap with lemon in it (or lemon juice) if you have to get rid of your tan hands, it works wonders! I definitely did not go out with tango hands haha!

GLAM damn it

How To Mask Winter Weight Gain

Fine holiday fun is not only found within the company of your closest friends and family, but it is also found inside of a biscuit, a second helping of apple pie, or in a medium-sized personal pizza. For many of us, winter time means hanging up your sneakers and bringing out your sweatpants. As a fashionista, you should never sacrifice your look. Here are three tips that will save your holiday spirit from too many sweets.

1. Bronzer: Your new best friend! To create a toned look, utilize this magic powder on your cheek bones, jaw, and collar bone.

2. An empire waist top: Perfect for hiding your belly! This is an invaluable eye teaser, perfect for enhancing cleavage while camoflaging your mid-section.

3. Leggings: So you can breathe! Unless you have pants that give, leggings are a magical body slimmer.

My Three New Must Haves!

My next discovery was actually one that was recommended to me by an amazing hairdresser to the stars; the T3 curling iron. I am really not one to ever think of buying an expensive hairdryer or straightener, they all pretty much seem the same to me. But one thing I have wasted more money on is bad curling irons. The all leave that dreaded dent in the curl no matter how hard I try to avoid it. Then miraculously my problem was solved when I was introduced to the T3! TheT3 seems to glide through your hair without sticking at all, leaving the perfect wave. I found mine at Sephora, for $99.00 on sale. (I know, it's an investment, but I really think it's worth it.) You can try to find it on ebay and I have even seen it on sale on some various websites. If you can't afford this yourself, the next time someone asks you what you want for the holidays, don't be shy, say the T3!

Zara Debuts Evening Wear Line

Zara is a go-to for the elegant yet trendy, twenty-something fashionista who needs affordable clothing that's not from Forever 21 (no offense F21, I still love you too). So thank goodness they've debuted an evening line just in time for that NYE party you have nothing to wear to! The animal prints, full skirts, tuxedo blazers and metallics abound in this line, making it a very current yet classic choice for your perfect party outfit. View the lookbook

Last-Minute Stocking Stuffers

As the holidays draw near and most of us are still cramming in our Christmas lists, Phyllis Lubarsky of OuterVision is the go-to lady to finish off any women’s stocking stuffers. Phyllis offers the best accessories a woman can wish for from her little buddy rings to the perfect aviators. May I add my favorite on the list—Phyllis’ crystal bracelets and flower rings. With low prices starting at $25, every Christmas list is completed without the hole in your wallet! The best part about it is gifts are exchangeable and so you can be sure that the recipient will absolutely LOVE their Christmas gift this year. What’s there not to love about Swarovski crystal jewelry?

More Than Just a Pretty Face

His designs are known for a "classicism-meets-futurism" approach, the MAC site states. In addition, the cosmetic colors are reportedly inspired by the paintings of Johannes Vermeer, and designs evoke "a sense of love in the product."
Some stand-out products include the MAC and Marcel Wanders False Lashes, which is actually not false at all but rather an ultra-luscious brush and thickening formula that will create the look of a false lash without all that messy glue. In addition, the black mirrored metal powder compact and sleek candle-stick-shaped lipsticks will leave you torn about which you love better: the makeup you're wearing or the package it comes in.

Art Geek and fashion freak

Hello. I am alive and well (minus the bloody scrapes on my heels... sacrificing fashion for comfort? I don't know...my feet need to be kept in tip-top condition if I want to last in this city.) I know I am liar for saying that I would revive my blog, but how can you revive a zombie? The energy and time I used to have for this poor baby is just gone, but I wanted to give you people out there (those who still read and those who are spamming on my comments with chinese words that I cannot understand even though I'm Chinese. I'm pretty sure it's something vulgar.. but innocence is bliss) a chance to see what's up with Lala.

So I have graduated and moved from west to east. I'm finally living in Manhattan in one of the trendiest neighborhoods and attending one of the best fashion schools in the world. It's funny how life is so unpredictable. Going from one field to another and never really knowing where you'll end up. I like life that way the best.

It's been a whirlwind of craziness since my blog took it's slow decline into oblivion. Perhaps I craved the craziness over blogging. Having priorities suck, don't you agree? Anyways, I have graduated and am attempting to enter the gates into adulthood. I think my shoe got stuck on some gum somewhere so I'm still taking awhile getting there, but boy does it smell close and I'm not sure if it's a pleasant smell I'm smelling or an unpleasant one. I don't want to be all deep and sentimental because I'm rather shallow (yes I did just insult myself) so I won't be all deep and sentimental because I'm tired.

I'm in a one year fashion design program. It's only the second week into the semester and I did not get back to my lovely crooked floor apartment until nearly 1:00 AM. Of course the subway screw ups and a mini midnight dinner to McDonalds prevented me from getting home before the next day, but it was all good. Being in NY makes me realize how badly I want to succeed and to carve myself somewhere in the world. I want people to know me or at least know my company. I want people to worship the ground I walk on and get tattoos of my name over their bodies. Okay maybe not... but yes, NYC I believe is the place that young people who are full of ambition conglomerate to pursue their dreams. Hopefully I stay as optimistic as I am right now a few weeks later. I've been told my optimism is a west coast thing. Oh west coast, you can never be replaced in my heart.

It's my third week in the city and it's been surreal. It's hard to make myself understand that I am actually living-living here and not just traveling abroad and fooling around like I did in good ole Milan days. There's so much to see and so much to absorb. I feel like I need to become mega sponge. But then again sponges ain't too cute so maybe not... (that was an example of my shallowness).

I miss writing. I miss my incorrect grammar. I miss posting pictures of myself for the whole world to see and then having my sister call it ugly. I've been meaning to do more daily posts of my outfits but 1) my camera is hard to focus with self-timer 2) there are so many other great stylish bloggers out there that I really can't compare and 3) I feel like I have become unstylish as of late. But still I will try my best because all the sweet emails and comments I get make me smile. And yes I do get them even if I haven't been the best at responding... sorry. You can smack me in the face if you ever run into me sometime.

I should sleep. It's 3:35 am. I just wanted to type some words on my laptop and this was the perfect outlet. Killing two birds with one stone. Everyone wins.

Goodnight from nyc. My room has no windows so I can't tell you about the sparkly lights. But perhaps you can just close your eyes and imagine it with me.
