blogger layout sos

hello bloggers, HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009 *again*!!! so... i wanted to change my blog layout a little bit to start this year; i want to display bigger images in my blog posts, except that i have absolutely no idea how to do it! spent hours going through the HTML codes (well, i am obviously not an HTML or CSS coder!) but couldn't find where i can change that setting and i've given up! image width 400 pixels is just as far as i can go when i uploaded images and set it the size to large (instead of small and medium). and if i enlarge the image by dragging the corner of the image displayed, it will just make the image pixelated / blurry :( anyone can help? sorry for a not very exciting topic to post on the first day of the year! thanks in advance!

happy new year 2009

i'm counting down to say good bye to 2008. i'd like to thank you all for reading my blog for the past 3 years, all of your comments are very much appreciated. looking at my blog, i realise that my posts were getting less and less each year! so i promise to post more in the new year - one of my resolutions! have a happy new year everyone, looking forward to 2009 and see you then! *photo by homako*

rubies overload!

let me introduce you (if you didn't know them already) to these cool identical twins - danielle and simone rubi. from music, photography, art and design - they do them all. i'm a big fan of these two ladies.


some gorgeous photos taken by danielle rubi.


and don't forget to check out great music from both simone rubi's bands: rubies and call and response. love them all! here are a few songs.

candace meyer

some of the stunning photos by candace meyer. i am smitten! how's your holiday? hope you all have had a wonderful christmas!

have a lovely xmas!

testing the new source for mixtape... oh and btw i am now a new contributor for the grand social blog. you might see me there more often next year. it's a cool and hip store too! merry xmas 2008 everyone, happy holidays! xx

yulia brodskaya

i'm just very amazed at how gorgeous these paper artworks are by yulia brodskaya, a russian born artist who's currently based in london. magical! *found via design is mine*

on a side note, i'm very sad about the bad news that mixwit is shutting down. all of mixtapes and profiles will stop playing before end of the year. i might have to remove my mixtape posts then when the time is come :(

nevereverland

here are some highlights from my weekend. whitest boy alive, ladyhawke and the presets - you guys rock! oh and i think erlend øye is just the coolest nerd ever, i can watch him singing and dancing all day, i want to bring him home with me!

marcel marlier

just the other day i was having a chat to my sister about children books we love, and look what i found at flickr today! 'debbie learns to dance' by marcel marlier is one of my fave books when i was a kid. i think i still keep that book back home in jakarta - we have the indonesian translation version and it's called 'tini belajar balet'. although the book cover is already torn and there are some marks here and there, i still love this book! what's your fave book(s) when you were kids?

tilly bloom

where did the time go? it's already december tomorrow! i guess it's time to start your christmas shopping, is it! some gift ideas for you, i found these gorgeous works by tilly bloom. i love the black and white antique illustrations, very charming! check out her blog and etsy shop as well. good night and hope you all have a great week ahead.
