Politics, Busy Week & 1K


A little hello from me,

Amidst the chaotic ignorance surfacing through the warmth of Indonesia's tropical ambiance leading to the upcoming Indonesia's Presidential Election, I for once, (almost) do not parade around my choice voluntarily (with over-exaggerated alacrity.)
Do I have a choice? You betcha. 
Do I have a problem if the other wins? No, I personally don't. I would much rather have Jokowi-JK win, but I do respect Indonesia if it's chosen to think otherwise. After all, with support, prayer and love, I hope we can send positive vibes to the big men sitting in big chairs running our beloved country. 
It's unhealthy to have an anathema, especially not someone who has your whole country in his hand.

So, that's quite brusque considering Indonesia's going through what feels like a political battlefield right now, with 2 VERSIONS of posters, billboards and flyers in the corner of your eyes every possible angle you can possibly roll your eyeballs to. Friends become foe, family fights, I just can't seem to fathom people who aggressively offends and defends, what's the point of the black campaign and calumny, guys, one of these guys WILL BE OUR PRESIDENT.

Okay, enough of that political shiz.

I woke up one morning around last week to this:

1,000 SUBABIES! 
I haven't been able to grasp why anyone would watch any of my videos at all. I just enjoy making them and I enjoy watching people interact on the comment section. '120,000 views' means my videos have been watched 120,000 times in total. WHAT.
They are like ...real people, like..BOOM! mind blown! 
Thank you, if you are one of those who have joined crossing to the dark side muahaha *evil laugh*.
I am excited to do better, fun stuff on my channel with you!

I've had a crazy week and an even more mental weekend!
(on the way to Electro Run)
I volunteered for Electro Run last weekend and still am knackered. My cupidity for a great wild free-spirited experience granted me a spot on the refreshment booth, or as I like to call it: wait-what-i-didn't-sign-up-for-the-hardest-job-here, preparing drinks for 11,000 thirsty people eager to flood their belly with drinks. 

The race started at 7 pm, but myself and 19 other people started stacking drinks at 5/6, I'm not even sure. It succeeded wiping my whole make up off, leaving a little bit of eyeliner which I cherished with my whole heart. 
It was such a cool event regardless, I was so glad I got to be a part of it!
Anyways, 
I redesigned this whole blog in attempt to start writing again after a hiatus that feels like an eternity. I get bored of things so easily, I constantly need changes, I 100% need it. 
So here's to a restart, and first 1k of www.youtube.com/NessieJudge !
Thank YOU!

Super Easy Aglio Olio Recipe


Hello friends!,
It's a messy hair and dark lips sort of day, I'm not complaining.
I just got off mid-terms for the five subjects I have this semester; Thought Leadership, International Business, Project Management, Supply Chain, and Statistics. (Yes, they are in order from the one I can (still) tolerate to the ones that make me want to jump off a bridge.)

Friends, I miss my friends. Being at University is okay, but the less school days you have = the less time you spend with your friends = the less bond you have with them. Some people are family oriented, well, I'm not. I'm one of those freaks who build tension whenever I'm around more than one family member. I'm avoiding fights because it's unhealthy, so I've been alone most of the time.

Being alone can be good though, right?
Not for me, it's not.
Thank god blood is thicker than water, my cousin, Shahnaz, comes to hang out with us every weekend and we now try to be somewhat productive and adventurous on weekends and try to do new things to make our life interesting without having to go through 4 hours of traffic to go to the city and do nothing at malls.

We tried to make Aglio Olio pasta, God knows why.
it was extremely simple to make and tasted amazing!
all you need: 
+ Pasta
+ Virgin Olive Oil
+ Mushroom
+ Garlic
+ Red Pepper/Chili
+ Italian Parsley Leaves
+ Salt & friends (optional)
Recipe: 
1. Chop all the garlic, mushroom, chili, and Italian Parsley leaves! Chop all of 'em!
2. Boil some water and cook da pasta (drop it like it's hot uyeeaahh)
3. As you age and wait for the pasta, put the debris of things you've chopped earlier on a frying-pan and fry them with the virgin oil!
4. Lastly, put the cooked pasta on the frying-pan too and cook them together, add salt and more oil according to how wet you want it to be. (that's what she said. wait. what.)
taraaaaaaa,

Maan, I thought I sucked at cooking, I'm even worse at writing recipes. Trust me though, 
THIS WAS DELICIOUS! (and as easy as an Italian food can get.)

What's your favorite easy-peasy-recipe ?
I need to try making them too!

Talks & Cakes

It's the first day of April! 
WHAT. ON. EARTH
Someone please stop the time, I'm getting dizzy.
Yesterday was a national holiday and what better way to bid March our farewell than by celebrating with Cinnamon Rolls and some girls chat? 
I really wanted to watch Divergent but I haven't had the time to, and the people around me just don't trust me when I say it's awesome. I read Divergent in like 2 days, I. am. basically. obsessed. 
I was going to watch it today, but I just have things to do for school and my youtube channel, I think it's best if I stayed indoor today. (Though it's the last thing I'd want on such a nice day.)

My sister, cousin and I can't bare not meeting each other at least once a week to talk about stuff. We've grown up basically together, and though my cousin is 5 years younger, she's way too mature for her age and I guess we're kind of to blame. 
We took to Saint Cinnamon to spend this national holiday and welcome the lovely April,
I basically had the pleasure of putting these dangerous calories-bomb onto my system, and boy does it taste like sin. (A really really tasty sin. )
OH I ALMOST FORGOT,
I'm pregnant. 
(Not that it's important or anything but like it's pretty relevant and this is why I'm welcoming april.)

april fools.
