Eastcoast, Pakuwon City: A Glance of Singapore in East Surabaya [Part 1]

This time, I want to share soem of my experience when visiting this “Surabaya’s Singapore”. So about a month ago, I went to Eastcoast Residence (further shortly mentioned as “Eastcoast” only) to pay a visit to the room which my bro had bought it. Before we reached the apartment, we dropped a visit at San Antonio Residence which is the outer section of Eastcoast. Below are the pictures taken on the spot.

Eastcoast : Keroro is enjoying the view.

I brought this little fellow along with me, so I decided to also take the moments he admired the gorgeousness of this residence.

Eastcoast : Breeze air everywhere.

This hude complex was designed with a percentage of, let’s say, almost 40 out of 100, for green ecosystem. It is rarely to watch green scenery in this city. So it is great to have such a “home” there. We used Panasonic Lumix DCM FX-36 to take all of the pictures. And thanks to the cloudy sky, I could maximize this photo session chance.

Eastcoast : Surrounded by green.

This was what Keroro-taicho enjoyed at the moment I captured his picture. The garden is also designed with combination of modern and roman style decoration.

Eastcoast : Nature blessed life style.

Sorry Drossel, I forgot mentioning that she was also coming with us. I remembered that time when she sat alone enjoying its calm situation with singing birds almost found everywhere.

Well, that’s all for now guys. Like my other posts, I promise you more of  my experience about this beautiful place. Till next time folks. Ciao.

Kemang Icon: Art-chitecture

When I put my first step inside the building, the atmosphere was suddenly changed. I felt like being inside an abstract world. There were so many asymmetricity here and there.

“To make Architecture gets along with Art” is merely the concept of the building owner. Picture below is the hallway after I put my first step into the building.

KEMANG ICON : The Hallway

As you can see, the left and right side, are not symmetrically built, as well as the roof section, they are not divided evenly.

KEMANG ICON : The Tenants

This is the second tenant [perimeter]. Its logo is uniquely designed so that every person who sees it will easily remember it.

KEMANG ICON : The Elevator

“WOW !!” That’s the first word which came into my mind. Very unique, and elegant. It is almost 90% built of glasses. Unfortunately, IMHO, its space is too small for five-leveled building.

KEMANG ICON : The Bookshelves

This section is on the third level which was designed with the combination of  library and lounge concept. The lightning environment is not too bright, but it is enough to light up whoever wants to read the books, and at the same time, it also gives a warmth and breeze atmosphere.

KEMANG ICON : The Rooftop

On the top fifth floor, apparently, it is divided into indoor and outdoor sections, and the picture above is the outdoor part. It is very classy and again, uniquely designed. The tile is constructed of half of wood and stone. I bet, in the evening, the environment will be so romantic for couple. By the way, refering to the Feng Shui, the only element I could not find here is fire. LoL. Wait a minute…where is the water element ?

KEMANG ICON : The Pool

In addition to the Feng Shui elements, I present to you, the beautiful pool, which is also located on the rooftop of the building. Unaccidentally, I was able to capture this lovely moment. I couldn’t believe there is a place like this in the most crowded megapolitan city, Jakarta. As you can see, the scenery was so warm and calm, just like being on the slope of a mountain.

Well, this is for now. I hope I can visit this art-chitecture place again some other time and perpetuate more moments there. Until my next journey

All Night Long on Saturday

1.06 am in the dawn and I still could not sleep at all. It’s probably caused by I was overslept from yesterday. When i woke up, all of body’s part seemed not too well, so I got to sleep over and over again. Oh man…

My father went to work from around 9 o’clock until 6-7pm. My mother also went to Pasar Atum with my grandpa and my cousins from 1pm until 5.30 pm. So, as the elder brother, I had responsibility to take care of my own house.

Well, today’s activities were started in the evening, when Januar and Ko Indro along with my brother, Charlie, have come back from Galaxy Mall. They had to prepare themselves for the event held on 6 pm today at Tristar Restaurant. One of their lecturers was going to have a party to celebrate his marriage.

Hm, the other things I had done this day were, hmm,

1. did sms with my friend,
2. painted one of my Gundams parts,
3. watched animes entitled “Soul Eater” and seminar entitled “Technically Funny”,
4. helped my auntie to transfer his phonebook,
5. had chats with my friends.

Ah speaking of which, recently, I had something bothering me. A friend of mine had told me that someone had had something toward me. She asked me whether I had realised it or not. Well the truth, I had “catched” the signal, but I didn’t want to go wrong with my own opinion. I had experienced this situations so many times, and they all ended with my disappointments. And the most important thing was, I don’t want to make things worsen caused by my own emotions. On the other hand, deep inside my heart, I feel lonely, even it’s just a little, but who knows it will grow bigger in the future. It’s really confuse me up.

I guess time will reveal everythings…..

2.36 am….well I gotta sleep…

Oyasuminasai….

1/100 MG RX-93 Hi-Nu Gundam from SABER

Today, June 7th, 2008, is the second day of STF 2008 which held in Surabaya. What a crowded situation I had there in the exhibition spot. It was just like a traffic jam caused by an accident (just kiddin’ lol).

I arrived approximately around 6.30 p.m there and accidentaly met with my late home-teacher with his girlfriend. We also had a little chat with them, remembering the old times together. I remember that we usually played “Cap-Sa” whenever they went to give additional courses for me and my brothers. We miss that time so much.

I continued my walks around the exhibition searching for action bases. I wanted to buy several of them, even actually I’ve already two of them. I wanted to pose all of the Endless Waltz Heroes. Darn !! I was bad at predicting. The price was quite more expensive than usual, so I cancelled my desire lol. And I continued again going around, looking for, let’s see, maybe there would be a booth with a good price, while I was waiting for my brothers and friends were going around too.

Oh my God, Billy had bought 1/100 MG Freedom Gundam to be his experiment before crafting the 1/100 MG Full Burst Strike Freedom Gundam (poor your Freedom, Kira lol). Not long after that, the other friend, called Dumichen was also buying 1/100 MG Strike Noir Gundam and before the payment (he lent some money from us to buy that item !! What a funny guy), he asked my help to negotiate with the owner whether the price could be more lower. After that, we went to Goota to have a dinner together, since currently Goota have a promotion package of “Pay 1 for 2″.

When the dinner time was over, I went back directly to pick my item on the booth. After that, with no shame, the three of us were going up to the stage and then posed for documentation. People around us were watching us, and it’s pretty made us felt nervous. What a grateful moment at that time lol.

Actually, yesterday on the first day of the exhibition, I’ve had already been there. I had gone there after picking up my brothers in their campus (once also mine too lol). Well, actually, in my mind, I wanted to buy something because it is a big event with big discount held only once in a year. After going around and consulting with my brothers, I had decided to buy “my title” at my friend’s booth. Sadly enough, he didn’t provide the item at the moment. But he told me to come again today to pick my requested item with a discount of 10%. He would take my item from his store at PTC. So that’s why I came again today to the exhibition.
