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.

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?
