Ryoji Sakate Hair Lounge

Hello Everyone! The holiday is sadly over now in Jakarta. Jakarta has a good and longest holiday every year during "Hari Raya" or we could say it's "Lebaran" event. Because this year I don't have any plans for travel/trip so I decided to have some explore around Jakarta haha I never really have times to exploring new places during normal weekdays nor weekend :(

So, yeah I got myself a reservation in Ryoji Sakate Hair Lounge yesterday. A little bit over-excited because this salon isn't really like those average salon thanks to the well arranged interior that pick most of my interest to try coming there. Almost all of hair salons in Jakarta always have that 'glamorous' feeling for the place with so many lightnings that sometimes my eyes hurt from that lol. But it's totally different here. Ryoji-san didn't put too much light in his place yet it's light enough for you to see your haircut clearly. (Pictures in the website is actually darker than the actual place)

July 2015 JLPT

Hello there ! I have been taking Japan Language private lesson since last October. Frankly speaking, I never have a plan to taking Japan language course before because I obsessed with Korea more. I do love Japan since I was a child but (if am not wrong) at 13 years old (13 is still a child by the way lolol) I remember I got quite influence about Korean Pop from my cousins (H.O.T. era if you knew them) and since then I somehow gradually forgetting about Japan and didn't really put much attention into them beside their fashion (since I took fashion college anyway and talking about fashion is impossible to not including Japan). 13 years to around 19 years old is quite a long time right...but then again when Korea was starting to booming in Jakarta, strangely I was getting bored of it. Moreover since L'Arc was coming to Jakarta, all I could listen was their songs only lolol and little by little I got my grip back to Japan's culture, songs, language (basically everything). However somehow I find that liking every-korean-things is my routine and I kept searching for Korean Language class after I came back from Bali last May. I was searching every class that I could find from browsing and planning to directly come to the class for checking the lessons and stuffs but hufff~ instead finding many KRclass, I found more about JPclass. While the KRclass that I found are so far from my house and pricey, I could easily found some of JPclass that are not so pricey, although not really near but not that far and some of them took my interest to made me forgetting about KRclass. Maybe God wanted me to took this class instead! lolol. please forget my exaggerate.

[MOVIE] アオハライド 「BLUE SPRING RIDE」

「アオハライド 」 read as AO-HA-RAIDO, which comes from Aoi (青) ; Haru (春) ; and Ride. If we translate it just like that it may means "Blue Spring Ride" but since 青春 (せいしゅん - Seishun) also means adolescent (same kanji; onyomi reading) I think it could means "Adolescent Road (Ride)" and it's perfectly fit the story~ 

However, whatever it means, Ao Haru Ride definitely is a good story moreover if you like Japanese school period story like me. AHR originally is from manga by Io Sasaki and quite popular both in Japan and internationally (my opinion of course hahaha). But really, I can't stand Kou in manga. For me he is like 'what kind of a man you are' guy lolol. That's why I will talking about the movie here because the story is far shorter so Kou will not that annoying (lol) and it's Higashide Masahiro anyway~~

[MANGA] 東京喰種と:Re 「TOKYO GHOUL & :Re」

Hello! I think I sure am fast to comeback with the stories about this addicted their so-called horror gore story. I already read all of the series including TG Jack and the greatly ongoing TG:re . Its a great decision to read the manga after I watched the anime. If it's reversed, I don't think I'll watch it with excitement. I'll tell my reason in story plot section because I want to blaberring about my excitement after read these all.

After loving reading manga for says, ten years, I already in state to be very picky when I read manga. Illustration is the first point for me to look then goes to genders. Though the plot is the huge impact for me to liking certain manga, I didn't read the synopsis usually (because am too lazy hahaha). Though I pay a lot of attention for illustration, without a strong plot its nothing and thats hard enough to find both quality of illustration and story plot in a manga because I like both pretty yet cool illustrations and shonen/seinen-ish story. Until now I could only find　黒執事「Black Butler」 and 「One Piece」 to my liking. For 進撃の巨人「Attack on Titan」, I prefer watch the anime since the manga is overusing the black ink lol. 

[ANIME] 東京喰種-トーキョーグール 「TOKYO GHOUL」

Well, I rarely watch anime actually but if I did, those must be a real good anime! And I never have an idea that anime talk will be my second blog post lol. For Japan lovers out there especially anime otaku guys, who don't know about this famous "TOKYO GHOUL" ? I honestly didn't really into anime like I said before and that's why I don't know much about TG before I watched it. And how come I watched it? Because my favorite cosplayer did Kaneki and Uta <3 *I didn't really into anime but I do adore some cosplayers like, A LOT lol*
