Birthday, Birthday's gift....and it's meaning

July, 22nd is my b'daaay!

hbd gunyuu

sweet seventeen.......

I dunno why, but i just feel there's something 'different' in my B'day this year. No, it's not a surprise but, there's lots of people who say " happy birthday" and ask me" what do you want for b'day gift." Moreover, my dad wanna held a birthday party for me-i never had it since ten years ago). so, i said :a big NO

Birthday, it mean plus one for my age's number. The differences is, when im seventeen, i get an ID Card, positition as citizen and individual, i get a right for votes, have my own asset and a bank accouunt above my name. One year older, which mean i get more demands to be an adult, have more responsible and grow more mature.

Honestly, im not a type of person who think that birthday is important ...

In my opinion, b'day isnt important. except for those elders( who supposed be grateful for their long ages). But, for young people, why you are feeling soo special?

"today is your birthay? ...so what?"
Im not a type of person who say "Happy birthday" to someone whom i dunno/not familiar. If i rarely have a conversation with that person, why i supposed to say 'Happy birthday'?

Im not a type of person who celebrate something routine and ordinary. I'll say 'Congratulations' if that person deserve it, when they gain success, win a competition or get an achievemet. (I think people who pass rehab deserve a congrats). Birthday isn't an achievement. Wheter the person became better or worse, birthday will always comes every year. So...what makes it special?

Being older doesn't mean being mature...

Birthday gift, i think the one that important it's the gift's meaning itself....

Im not a type of person who like giving a gift or a surprise. that's simply not my habit! I'd rather give someone something that he/she needs. IF i had a money, i certainly will ask " what do you want? specially, what do you need?" (i hope it's not expensive)

Im not a type of person who like to receive a gift freely. Except it was something that i really want, like a books, schools need or drawing toolz. Besides that, if they asked me i'll say "Make something for me! Anything!"

this is probably one of the best b'day gift i ever receive!


my dear friend, cintra made it for me...
tadinya rambutnya ada 3 helai, rontok satu

Many people ask me :
"What do you want?"
"I want a gunyuu! " -_- (blegh!)
nah..bingung deh .....mau cari gunyuu dimana coba...............
there's something that simply cannot be purchased.
there's nobody think to made it by theirself???
A Picture, Drawing, Letters, Story, Comics or anything is okay, as long you made it by yourself.
Honestly i do really love and appreciate something like that! coz it's not purcasheable!
I never tought that i can get a real-touchable-gunyuu in my life.
Sometimes when i say iwanna Gunyuu, i really say in the real meaning.
Simple gunyuu. This is the reason why i feel very pleased when i get many fanart from deviantArt.

So, if there's a birthday. I oftenly give an original drawing as b'day present. Ugly, useless and cheap. Undestansbly, im only good in drawing, so i give the best that i can do. Altought the picture is ugly, there's only one-ugly-picture like that in this world, the one which i made for you!
'i made it by myself, specially dedicated for you'
Is that sounds sweet and meaningful now?

It's not about the gift itself....It's about the meaning inside.

WIP : Jaded heart


Inspiration comes from Jade, as the title: a girl with a jaded heart
I (basically) just want to make some diferrent drawing, something that refect both sadness and beauty inside. I use SAI for making sketch and lineart, all coloring progress done in Photoshop.

i made the sketch, i spend 1 hour just to brainstorming with sketch and concept

and make the lineart

i start to color the skin and then i color the yukata

i make the face detail : eyes, make up, more shadows. I add white to the pearl

I add shadow in the pearl, make it more 3D, coloring the flower in up-right side, and start to draw the yukata's detail. I spend a whole day to draw those pattern

done with the yukata, i add the water reflection,copypaste the yukata's and use smude tool to wrap it. I decide to make a butterlfy as her accesories and i also use a complex pattern from PS brush in the background.

i add the glowing effect, in everywhere. I use 'color balance' to make the entire picture more like a jade color. i blur some parts, sharpen the entire picture in the last and...

done!

Mini-Moni

Rising stars from J-FEST LIA Pengadengan

In last4 years, i never be absent to attend Japan Festival/Matsuri @ LIA pengadegan (jakarta)
well : i'll share you my reason to be there, what's make the J-Fest @ LIA so special and different

First,It's VERY close from my house (5 minutes with bike?)

Second reason, Bon odori in there is the best (after i join bon odori in other places)
it's like an event where we do japanese traditional dancing with everyone ^_^
it's fun! (i'll explain it sometimes)

and Third(the best part) is..............

Mini-Moni!!!!
It's extremely RARE Show! Only avaible in LIA's J-Fest. You won't find it in other places!
So rare, So exclusive, Awesommelly WEIRD and entertaining.

What is MiniMoni?
Minimoni (ミニモニ) also known as Mini Moni., mini-moni, etc.) is a former subgroup of J-pop girl group Morning Musume, and a current group within Hello! Project. They were one of Morning Musume's most popular subgroups for their entire existence, because[original research?] of the combination of their outrageous music videos and live performances, and their widely varied musical styles...blah..blah
this is the 'real mini-moni'


Kawaii neee???
In summary : when we heard Mini Moni, we supposed to think about pretty-kawaii girls dancing in a stage....so moee, so cutee

and this is mini-moni LIA's version!
*JREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNGGG*
(mini~moni~)

........yes, it's NOT a girl..........
................damn! but they DO can dance.....
(mini~moni~)

......................................................................................................................................
......................................................................................................................................

all girls are screaming and rest : the boys are leaving
yes, i feel that too when i saw it in the first time............
i'm expecting some kawaii girls do cute dancing and they appeared and destroy my world =.=;
i'm taking the photo above in 2009~ and next year i came back at2010 and.......

*JRENG!JRENG!*
2010- they do it AGAIN!!!!!!!!!

mister(or miss?) is this became a kind hobby for you ??
HEY!!!watch your butt!! >__<
oooops! your watch out your tiara, cutie!

why i can laugh watching some like this(actually, it's kinda fun)
i really think they're have a GREAT talent to be a comedian?

i wonder~ why tjey wanna do something like that~~ soo... i stalk them~ ^^;
and at least i can get their REAL FORM (as a human being)

OMG~ they're normal person! even the boys middle was bit cool ( -_-)

what the hell on earth?

first, i looks them as a 'victim' but ....
lately i realize that they really do 110% for their mini-moni show, with their body and soul ^^;...well..................people loves FANSERVICE!
HOWEVER they're so funny!! :D

i'll watch you again next year! Fight, boys!!

My School in the future

halaman 1
halaman




ini komik bwt majalah KAWULA edisi 2010
(c)Rara-gunyuu,2010 do not distribute without my permission
if you wanna read in better quality,click -> http://gunyuu.deviantart.com/art/MY-SCHOOL-in-the-future-169801622


walaupun ini cukup LEBAY, dan beberapa orang bilang SANGAT provokatif
tapi saia merasa yah kehidupan sekolah yang saia alami yah secara garis besar seperti ini, walaupun tidak seekstrim ini, saat majalahnya terbit, banyak orang yang bilang suka komik saia, saat itu saia sadar kalau saia tidak sendirian
banyak anak2 28 yg juga mengalaminya (jujur saja, saya cukup senang waktu mengetahuinya)
tapi saia mencoba berpikir realistis, baik sebagai komikus sekaligus pembuat cerita...

lihatlah disekeliling anda
Teknologi berkembang dengan pesat, bukan mustahil jika generasi pelajar 20-30 mendatang akan mengalami hal ini...

Equivalent Trade

Sebuah kelebihan datang dengan tanggung jawab yang besar
fasilitas canggih menuntut muridnya memberikan hasil yang maksimal
dimana mereka tidak menerima 'kegagalan'
dimana mereka tidak mendapat 'toleransi'
kadang mereka belajar dengan cara yang tidak manusiawi
tapi mau bagaimana lagi? toh dengan segala sarana dan fasilitas yang disediakan untu mereka
segala alasan tidak lagi berarti....
sekali lagi...Tidak ada toleransi.

Intinya, kita kadang sering sekali iri dengan sekolah top dengan fasilitas yang luar biasa,
entah yang ada di dunia nyata atau sekolah elit yang kita tonton di drama korea
kadang kita berharap 'andai saja aku punya sekolah seperti itu'
masalahnya : apakah kita sudah siap dengan segala resikonya?
dan menjalani tanggung jawab yang mau tidak mau harus kita hadapi sebagai 'murid dari sekolah top elit'

Bersyukurlah dengan apa yang kita miliki
saia sendiri sebetulnya sudah senang sekolah di 28, rasanya sekolah itu nyaris cukup dalam segala hal : fasilitas, nama baik, grade tinggi, dan murid yang cukup intelek...(kalau saja ada japan club dan peningkatan fasilitas di ruang music)....it's perfect (for me) *slapped
