January 14th, 2009 and I'm posting my 2008 halloween lantern.
guess it showed how fast the time had passed, and how sloooooooooooooow my body movement..

geez! jan 14th already???? Where was I??

bird

I found a dead bird.
And today another bird...dead.
It hit the window and fell into out pool.
Lars tried to save the bird but it went straight back to the pool, again.
I guess life its just that hard as a bird.

"The" clown

The longest clown show I ever enjoy watching probably "Krusty the Clown", but that because I love watching The Simpson almost every night. (except weekends because Fox doesn't show Simpson on the weekend).

Even since I was a little, I never thought clowns are funny or cute. And boy......, I'm so glad I never finished the "IT" movie.
My mom would never let me watched that kind of movie, so I watched it at the age of 17, ...and still scared the hell out of me!
i still remember when the clown was watching from the gutter... with the "look"! Yup... gutter.... no way I getting close to a gutter until now.

So ya...for now I just watch "Krusty the Clown" a sad drunken old "never funny" clown...and so far he's harmless.. to me.

"HEY HEY HEY KIDS!" Krusty

Amir

The only fun thing when I had to go to tennis lesson at 6.30 am was when I spotted Amir from the corner of my neighbor house.
Amir was a brown short fluffy dog, who usually sleep around 3 meter radius of my neighbor house. He had such a cute face almost looked like a teddy bear, on dog version of course. I've been dealing with dog since I was a little kid, so I knew never played with dog stranger without permission. (or good instinct)

I hate tennis.
I got blister all over my palm, my arms sore, and my legs felt like made out of stone. The tennis court only 5 minutes by foot even tennis teacher able to waited in front of my house at 6.15 AM!!!
My mom didn't have time to make breakfast so she made me a sandwich. Which I hate too.


2 slice of breads with thick butter and little sugar in between didn't look too appealing at 6.30 am or any other time. Period.
So put the bread in the middle of sleepy street to drag Amir's attention. And I walked 30 meters away and hide behind a bushes. And he ate it!
So every time I put bread closer and closer to my house. Amir getting more and more comfortable and knew me too.

Until one day, tennis lesson was over. Just because my strategy of "pretending sleeping and didn't hear when my mom knocking at my door", seemed work finally.
Days passed by and I was enjoying myself waking up 9am in the morning.
And there he was, Amir, he was standing in front of my house. He was waiting for me doing the morning breakfast routine, I guess.

From that day, Amir never left my house. He was officially my dog.
And made all my female dogs pregnant.

(don't ask about my neighbor, I am sure my dad had to talk with them)

Once I heard an owl outside my window late at night. Loud and weird sound.. but very interesting. Too bad it flew before I was able to reach my camera.

Worm

Dear Writers on Strike,
I guess you are busy striking out there, and don't know if any of you going to read my letter. But I just want to tell you that I wish you well!
Don't get me wrong I hate writing, just as much as singing.
I know I know, I'm being selfish here, but its been awhile since I have watched my rerun TV show, and its torturing me. Don't be mad at me, I am just one of your biggest fan.

Missing you
Secret admirer

PS: The worm had nothing to do with my letter. Just trying to be cute :D

Monkey forest

I always want monkey, little monkey, orang utan or any other cute monkey. But since sometimes I acted like monkey, my husband said we don't need monkey anymore...fair enough.
I guess, 2 monkey would be too much for him.

This one was one of my first ceramic piece, it took me a long time to finish.
Especially when it comes to choosing the right color.
The underglaze color didn't come out as I expected, as I wanted to be more like "ogre" color. Happily ever, after green.

If you ask me how hard is it to make ceramics? Well, I must say it depends on how patient you are. When I started to join ceramic class, I though I could make pretty much anything in 1 week.. I WAS WRONG!

It's been over 1 year now, and every time I tried to make a simple salad bowl or a plain vase, ended up making huge mess. So that's why I had to came up with different strategy.. from a bowl to a monster.

So if you ask me again, how hard is it?
I would probably say, "be patient, darling...patient.. I am still working on it!"

call me "Santi!"

Having a Heldegard Linggawidjaja name never been easy, so what if...?

Starting when I was 6 years old, I came home from school demanding my mom to changed my name just like my schoolmate "Santi". I tried so hard to convinced my mom by changing my name I would be as pretty, as smart and had as many friends as she had, the perfect life I wanted to be.

Well a nagging 6 years old sound pretty annoying, but I guess my mom knew me well. So she simply ignored me. And now I am thankful her for that.
At least better than Hruoza Likhvanchik

and BRrrrroooommm!

oh my ghost!

After finished working in my studio (well, it's garage actually) and turned off the light, I noticed that this cute little ceramic figure turned out to look like a ghost.
Seriously!
It's not supposed to be scary! But I guess I put too little "glow in the dark" powder.

But it scared the hell out of me..
(guess I must put you far far far for awhile)
