Auto-biography Saya: I Love Purple

Satu warna favorit saya diantara beragam warna adalah UNGU, jauh sebelum band Ungu muncul.. :P Saya takut dikira saya suka warna ungu karena band Ungu, yang benar adalah karena saya suka warna ungu dan muncul band Ungu makanya saya juga jadi suka band Ungu.. Begitu..

Buat saya warna ungu itu warna yang misterius, warna yang kalau diibaratkan seorang manusia itu adalah manusia misterius yang berusaha menyimpan apapun dalam hatinya, ramah tapi tidak murahan, berkelas tapi tidak ekslusif yang hanya mampu bergaul dengan manusia-manusia sederajat..

Buat saya warna ungu itu warna yang anggun dan elegan. Kalau berupa pakaian, warna ini bisa dipakai saat acara berduka maupun bahagia, tinggal bagaimana memadu-padankannya.

Warna ungu adalah perpaduan warna merah yang merupakan simbol keberanian dan kecantikan dengan biru yang kalem dan merupakan simbol keharmonisan.

  

Menurut blognya mbak Komang Melastri dalam blognya, makna positif dari warna ungu adalah simbol kebangsawanan, spiritualitas, kemewahan, ambisi, empati dan pencerahan. Sedang makna negatifnya adalah misteri, angkuh, arogan, dan sensitif.

Kalau menurut mbak Gyta Chubbychabby Loveungu yang kebetulan banget sama-sama suka warna ungu, wanita penggemar warna ungu adalah wanita yang luar biasa.. Wanita yang tidak ragu-ragu menghadapi masa depan dan selalu berusaha yang terbaik untuk masa depannya. Hampir sama dengan blog mbak Komang Melastri tadi, Mbak Gyta juga bilang kalau yang bisa menjadi pasangan pecinta warna ungu hanya pribadi-pribadi yang kuat karena karakter pecinta warna ungu umumnya karakter yang kuat.

Rasanya semua sifat-sifat yang saya tulis tadi sifat-sifat saya semua.. Mulai dari empati, angkuh, sensitif, tidak ragu-ragu menghadapi masa depan, dan karakter yang kuat. Berarti memang tidak salah saya menyukai warna ungu, semacam merasa sekarakter dengan warna ini..

Saya itu ya ungu, ungu itu ya saya.. ^_^

Salam ungu,

Tuesday Questions: Random Questions

Wooo.. Okay, so here comes another Tuesday to answer some questions.. I am ready.. :D

First question, what are your nicknames? What do you prefer to be called?
I have a lot of nicknames, I'll tell you two.. The first is Nik, which is from Rani.. And the second is Ting, which is from kriting which means curly. What do I prefer to be called? I love to be called anything as long as the ones who gave the names are ones whom I know well and do not have any intention on making fun of me, I'll accept the names.. :D

Next, what books on your shelf are begging to be read?
I don't know, I have many books which are haven't been read so.. Many..

How often do you doodle? What do your doodles look like?
When I was a student I love doodling but now not really.. Last time I did it was days ago, it was only signature of mine, a whole paper full. LOL

What do you do if you can't sleep at night? Do you count sheep? Toss and Turn? Try to get up and do something productive?
I get up and do something productive such as playing games and facebooking.. :P LOL

How many days could you last in solitary confinement? How would you do it?
Never experience that but if I had to maybe a week. I don't know maybe I would spend a whole day writing, drawing and singing. I love singing a lot.

Do you save old greeting cards and letters? Throw them away?
Actually it's not because I threw them away.. I love saving all the old memory but I am kind of forgetful one and are not to good in putting things in the right place so I mostly lost all of them.. Poor me..

When making an entrance in to a party, do you make your presence known? Do you slip in and look for someone you know? Do you sneak in quietly and find a safe spot to roost?
I slip in and look for someone I know

Not many, I only look at the mirror when I am preparing to go out.

What is the strangest thing you believed as a child?
I believed that I am Ami Mizuno from Sailor Moon.. :P

What is one guilty pleasure you enjoy too much to give up?
Eating before sleeping.. It makes me getting fatter and fatter.. :D

Gambar-gambar Kami: Kami dan Banyuwangi

 Grajagan Beach
(do I write it wrong?)

It was in the month of December we went there.. There was me, my hubby, his brother and sister in law and their two kids, and his mother..

Actually my mom wanted to join but she and Dad had other things to deal with..

As everyone knows it was the month of rain.. It wasn't the first time we went to Banyuwangi in rainy season.. The first time we went there we didn't even go anywhere, but still I am okay because I am not the kind of person who likes to go out as often.. It doesn't mean I don't like to go outside to have a refreshment, I love doing that.. But as I stated before I am not the kind of person who likes to go out as often.. I went outside only when I need to do that and when I have to do that.. :D Yeah you can call me whatever you want but that is me..

The last time we went there it was just almost the same, actually the family planned to go to some places, tourism object. In the morning it wasn't rain at all.. The skies were so blue showing that it was time to go out.. Yes, we went out.. We went to Grajagan Beach.. It is a nice beach with nice scenery but it is not so clean just like most beaches in Indonesia..

Menurut informasi yang saya terima dari saudara saya yang tinggal di kota ini, laut ini merupakan muara dari sebuah sungai.. Dan setelah saya sampai memang benar, ada aliran air yang lumayan besar yang bermuara di pantai ini..

Kebetulan siang itu laut sedang surut, sehingga kami bahkan bisa melihat dasar dari sungai dan menyeberanginya.. Di seberang banyak kapal nelayan yang sedang dilabuhkan di atas pasir..

Belum lama disana, air mulai turun dari langit. Kami berlari menyeberang sungai untuk kembali ke tempat kami semula. Untung hanya gerimis..

Ini foto-foto lainnya:

Ini sungai yang saya bilang tadi:

Ini tempat nelayan melabuhkan kapalnya:
