Loft Apartment: Jakarta Rasa New York, Apa Iya?
Kamis, Juli 29, 2021 Jakarta, Daerah Khusus Ibukota Jakarta, Indonesia
Selalu punya cita-cita buat tinggal di New York biarpun itu cuma sebentar kayak 3-4 bulan. Terserah deh mau kerja, sekolah, atau cuma kerja serabutan. Bukannya mau glamorising NYC, tapi gue sendiri melihat kota itu bak a melting pot yang semua budaya dari seluruh dunia bertemu. Wong isinya mostly imigran, tentu pasti rasanya akan seperti ke sebuah kota baru yang fusion. Tapi, mungkin kalau buat sekarang belum cukup nih uang dan mentalnya hehehe.... akhirnya bareng suami pelan-pelan mewujudkan lewat loft apartment!
Well, kok loft apartment sih? Karena mostly gue dan suami sering banget liat di Pinterest "Brooklyn Loft" atau "NYC Loft" yang begitu cantik dan menenangkan jiwa. High ceiling, ruang yang jauh lebih lapang, ada lantai 2 yang jadi kamar tidur. Pokoknya sudah terobsesi duluan deh nyimpenin banyak foto-foto Loft apartment di Pinterest Board.

Throwback to 2019, masa-masa berargumen dan bernegosiasi dengan pasangan, kita telusuri hampir semua apartment dari yang di daerah Cawang, Menteng, Slipi, sampai kemana-mana deh. Tapi memang pada akhirnya, berkat keteguhan hati suami saya (Bimo) yang begitu keras akhirnya jatuh pada satu apartment, Soho Pancoran. Apartment yang dikembangkan oleh salah satu developer besar di Jakarta, yang sebelumnya membuat apartment dengan gaya SoHo (Studio Office Home Office) di daerah Jakarta Barat.
Tidak sedikit yang menyayangkan kenapa kok beli Apartment bukan rumah napak tanah. Apalagi kita harus bayar sinking fund, service charge, dan lain sebagainya. Waktu itu semata-mata kita berpikir awalnya, terserah tinggal dimana, mau beli mau ngontrak yang penting keluar dari rumah orang tua saat sudah menikah. Dan lagi-lagi, ngotot-nya anak muda umur 27 dan 26 tahun ya pasti harus diikuti karena udah berasa gede. Jadi, apartment pun dijabani. Toh, semasa saya kuliah saya terbiasa tinggal di apartment. Lalu, pasangan saya juga sekolah di Belanda untuk Master Degree-nya juga tinggal di apartment jadi kami tidak merasa banyak hal yang berubah banyak.
Eh, tunggu.. hm ya berubah banget karena ini perdana kami tinggal di tengah kota. Karena kami bertentangga di Jakarta Timur, sudah puas tuh merasa pulang pergi ke kantor 2 jam perjalanan. Jadi, kami pikir yaaa Tebet is fine area lah, not so bad. Apalagi, sekarang waktu commute kami ketengah kota benar-benar dekat. Terutama pasangan saya yang bekerja di daerah kuningan, yang biasanya bisa 1,5 -2 jam dari daerah Jatiwaringin dengan mobil. Sekarang bisa hanya 25 menit hehehe jadi yaaa ada plus minusnya lah.
Pertama kali kunci ada di tangan kami, unit ini kosong.
Tentu di saat itu yang dipikirkan hanya "Yes, we will make everything from the scratch!"
Kebetulan gue bersahabat dengan 2 designer interior yang salah satunya dulu teman sekamar saat jaman kuliah, namanya Mutiara Astari. Panggilannya Tia. Tia dan Yukino (sahabat gue yang juga designer interior) ini teman serumah sekarang sambil jadi teman berbisnis jasa interior bersama satu teman pemilik workshop, namanya Rezki. Saat itu, yang paling penting untuk dibangun adalah Dapur. Dapur dan meja makan adalah bagian paling penting dari rumah gue dan bimo karena kami suka makan. Entah itu beli, maupun masak sendiri. Biarpun lebih tepatnya suami yang hobi memasak dan agak obsesi dengan Midnight Diner di Netflix hehe.
Beralasan bagian dari Kado Pernikahan, Tia akhirnya membantu kami membuat desain seluruh tampak apartment. Tapi mungkin biar nggak kepanjangan, kita bisa mulai dari mengupas tuntas Dapur dulu kali yaa.
Ini keadaan dapur kami pertama kali apartmentnya sudah bisa dibersihkan.
Lalu, mulai deh ke berbagai tahap revisi desaign dan milih-milih macem-macem yang dibikin sama Tia dan Yuki. Cukup makan waktu sih karena kan namanya juga selera ya, belum lagi harus menyatukan visi dengan pasangan yang juga punya idenya sendiri. Pokoknya banyak sabar-sabar dengan argumen-argumen lucu selama menentukan ini itu.

Oh ya, ada hal-hal yang harus diperhatikan ketika beli apartment dan merenovasinya. Setiap kegiatan sipil apalagi mengubah posisi listrik dan berurusan dengan air, ya tentu kita harus bayar deposit dan uang bayar sampah sebagai jaminan tidak merubah struktur aslinya. Nah, ini langsung berhubungan dengan Building Management dari Soho Pancoran yang waktu itu kayaknya menagihkan sekitar 10juta untuk deposit fit out dan 2 jutanya untuk biaya buang sampah. Untuk depositnya setelah proyek selesai biasanya akan dicek dan dikembalikan, kok.
Waktu itu pengerjaan mulai seinget gue akhir bulan Oktober 2019. Dan posisinya gue dan bimo sudah tinggal di apartment, jadinya kita ngerasain banget tuh yang namanya debu, berisik, dan berbagai macam ketidaknyamanan ada orang sliweran. Saya sebagai freelancer dan pekerja independen akhirnya jadi si Satpam yang ngontrol keadaan. Setelah kurang lebih sebulanan sekitar akhir November 2019, akhirnya dapur kita jadi juga.
Ini tampak keseluruhan sudah lengkap dengan meja makan kecil kami
Dapur mungil banyak iklan nih hahaha
I'm so proud of everything hahaha, ya lucunya cerita bikin rumah tuh ada-ada aja. Lebih tepatnya ngisi rumah tuh ada-ada aja. Mahal? IYA BANGET! Menguras emosi? IYA, apalagi sempet ada salah pasang keranlah, ternyata begini begitu atau minta dikerjain ulang. But the satisfaction? Wah, priceless apalagi teman-teman kami tuh semuanya pada betah banget di apartment ini. Semuanya pada bilang homey, dan iya, kita memang maunya ruang kecil ini jadi tempat yang homey untuk kita dan semua kerabat yang bertamu. Seenggaknya, biarpun belum bisa tinggal di NYC, kita bikin apartment mungil ini rasa-rasa NYC Loft ya biarpun tanpa bricks wall yang khas hehehe.
Cerita isi-isi rumah ini nggak berhenti di sini aja kok, masih panjang jadi mungkin akan di post lain waktu ya. Oh ya, for those who's been wondering my friends' interior designer service, kindly click this link ya!
Thank you for reading this blog. See you another post!

It's almost a year since the last post about Vitamin C etc.
ugh, I'm a really bad blogger. Can I say myself as a blogger?
Since I dont know Blogger terms can referring to anything nowadays.
Yes, I'm fine. Thank you. How are you?
It's been a lot of things that I haven't shared with general public.
BTS, Korea, Europe, Boyfriend related etc. It's been a while. Well, I don't know if there's somebody, out there, actually read my writings. Although I worked for a lifestyle magazine for a quite sometimes. But, I still can't believe the statistic that shown on this website. I saw many people saw my Vit C post. Thank you and do you think you need an update?
Before I'm going to spill everything about what have you missed about my skin condition (well, I got worst acne AGAIN while in Europe last year), I'm going to tell step by step what was happening in 2017.
So, as you guys know, I worked for a magazine, cosmogirl! Indonesia. And since last October 2017, I am no longer associate with MRA Media Group, PT Media Rahayu Citra, and CosmoGIRL! Yes, The magazine itself got shut down cause internal reason. So, yes I'm a self-employed since October 2017.
Do I work now? Yes, well.. define 'work' for me.... lol
So I did search and interview for many things and positions, but in the end, I sat back at home and realized "I'm starting again my clothing line." For some of you who juggled into this satanic blog, I would like to say "I graduated as Bachelor of Computer Science, my major's Artificial Intelligence. Then, I enrolled to a quick design class (fashion design and stuff) then I got 30 semifinalists Indonesia Fashion Design Competition 2015. Then, I got the job a month after failing the finalist qualification. Cosmogirl! is my first job, I got into fashion & beauty journalist. Now, I'm continuing my dream as fashion designer and fulfill my desire as business woman."
Was that clear enough? I hope so.
Yeah, so I am working for my self. I started everything from scratch again. I opened my 2018 by launching a new collection. In this collection, I have been partnering with a friend, actually her mom is my mom's bestfriend since their just kids. So, we met and she interested on business and investing. So, I run the business with her tag along as my partner. We're using my actual and existing brand, DELFA. You can check the IG: @hello.delfa
In may, I will have a fashion show in Bali. I'm very nervous right now and I just cant think of anything good about my self because of that. I'm just worried.
Then, I started a Kpop Goods Unofficial Store with my former co-workers in CosmoGIRL! So we did a kind of Co-designign. Then, we are gonna do some busking event. Selling Kpop Goods at Concert Venue with my fellas. It was fun, tho! Really! Even we got a new event in June or July if I'm not wrong. You can check my Kpop Goods Unofficial Merch on IG @seoulbeam__
Then... so.. I was using 'Oates' as my header for such a long time. Then I changed it many times but now i'm using 'modu-deli'. Well, here's the verdict. I really want to share something everything I like about life. Modu in Korean means 'Everything, anything'. And Deli is a nickname that has given by my former co-workers from CG! It's just nice to hear Deli tho. It reminds me kiyomi version of me or I can say it sounds like 'Daily'. I hope I can update daily tho!
I've been very busy because of preparing many things alone. Well, my partner is not involved in this project. because she's a partner for a certain collection. So, because this Bali stuff is my thing, I'll do it my self. Well, with some help too. It's quite overwhelming, I took some freelance jobs like writing for The Body Shop Indonesia and Emina Cosmetics for their website and stuff. But, still a fashion show is huge spender factor for a designer. Making a collection is not simple. Not cheap. I can guarantee that many designers out there really tired with the sleepless night. The most horrible thing that we cannot sleep properly and our brain cannot stop working. Also, I did my own marketing stuff alone. I also participate in many exhibitions and bazzar just to learn about the products and the customer. I need some demographic factual data. Not just a hollow approach by Instagram Ads.
There are lots of stuff have caught my eyes recently and I think I'm going to talk in another post. I think since I'm not legitimately a corporate slave, I should be posting many things. I need writing to relief my stress after a long hour talking to people at the exhibitions.
Also, on March 9th 2018. FINALLY 25 YEARS OLD. I'M SO PANIC!
as you may know, I hate growing older.
Older doesnt mean wiser, mkay?
I'm going to make a separate story about acne and stuff. So, stay tuned!
kiss hugs,
Delfa

So, It's been a while.
Why I always start my blog with "It's been a while"? It feels like I'm emphasizing my self as a lazy writer. But, yeah I'm definitely back with another review. For those who wonder what I've been busy lately: I'm a writer in a magazine tho, so I write, another write and write. Other than that, I must be having photoshoots. So that's how it goes. And certainly some events to handle.
The Beauty Box SA (where I bought it in Grand Indonesia Shopping Mall Jakarta) told me that I could use the booster in the morning and only use Peeling Night Cream at night before going to bed. Just leave it overnight for a month but then I need to stop using it on the next month. So it only effective if I use it for a month and take a hiatus on the next month, then i could continue again afterwards. So it goes like on April I started using it then May stop, June started again, then on July I stopped using it again. It goes like that for 6 months after opening.

And certainly some events to handle.
In this post, I'm going to share about my empties. Novexpert products got me hooked! I started using them around early 2016, maybe around February? or March? (wow, It's a year ago!). I bought Booster Vitamin C Serum first and tried to use it regularly for day and night as a serum after I double cleanse my face. Right exact a month later, I'm back to repurchase it, but the SA tempted me with the Peeling Night Cream which he argued that if I came back for the serum and satisfied enough, it would be no problem to try the Peeling Night Cream. On a flash memory, I was hesitating to buy because it's a peeling night cream and I thought it's quite harmful for my skin. But then, because I was an easy person to be persuaded, I ended up buying both.

So it goes like on April I started using it then May stop, June started again, then on July I stopped using it again. It goes like that for 6 months after opening.
First of all, as you may have read my old posts. I have an oil combination type of skin - sensitive also and acne prone. So it is complex to have a new regimen. But because I feel like my skin already got used to the Booster Vitamin C, The Peeling Night Cream just works wonder on my skin. After a month using these combo, I notice my acne dried so fast in the next morning. If I have a little bumpy skin, for the next couple days I could see the Peeling Night Cream and The Booster work harmoniously making the acne came out faster and healing the scar. My skin feels smoother, looks brighter and also clearer.
But the thing is the booster is really expensive. I already repurchased them 3 times and the last time I went to the Beauty Box, I bought only the peeling night cream. Because recently I'm interested to try a brand called, Dear Klairs, which also launched a vitamin C serum. But what can I say?
A French beauty products never fails me before. So I have a prejudice towards the origin of my beauty products now? Not true, but somehow French beauty products always amaze me.
Ah.. There's a bit a factual report about a developing progress of my skin condition when I started using Novexpert products on 2016. Around February 2016, my skin condition was really bad. I was gained weight too much, I ate recklessly, I didn't go exercise religiously, also I had a bad sleeping habit. It was the worst time of my life. Maybe it's not... comparing my 2012 case on bad acne when I was in college. But still, acne is always bad for me. For my confidence and my pride.
Okay so here's a video from one of my magazine youtube channel:
Okay, in this video (you might not notice) but I put my foundation on. Because I didn't feel confident to put my bare face. I got bad acne (again) after such long time. But yeah, when I filmed this, it was hard for me.
In this photo my face before I put any makeup on, you can see the dark spot and dull skin. (i'm sorry for not documenting this properly). It was taken on March 16th 2016 at the office when I filmed makeup challenge with the true beauty, Andien Aisyah.
Then, it's my skin condition after I used Booster Vitamin C and Peeling Night Cream diligently. Taken on June 4 2016.
It was taken in the car, in the middle of traffic. With no filter. As you can see, my face might not change like Kate Middleton but I can see my face clearing up well. I still have pretty much major acne scars but not that kinda visible.
And for those who've been following me on Snapchat and Instagram might have noticed that I summoned both products a lot. It has nice smell, it's not harm for my sensitive skin, not feeling any stingy surprises, it clearer my skin, it heals my acne faster and it's expensive af hahaha.
For now, I already changed my regimen because as a beauty writer, I personally have to try all those beauty products out there. Yeah.. I may not a beauty blogger tho. More like beauty writer in a magazine. And having a sensitive skin is like a blessed and also a nightmare.
Well, if you want to find Novexpert in Jakarta, you could just go to Sephora and Beauty Box. Or, you can buy them online. And for the prices, The Booster Vitamin C is Rp840.000,- and the Peeling Night Cream is Rp540.000,-.
It's not a cheap products so make sure you have to be careful before you buy it. Because I read in many forums that some people's skin react badly towards Vitamin C products. Maybe, if you want to try it, go for the booster first. Because Peeling Night Cream still a peeling. A chemical peeling that you will leave it overnight. Booster is more mild than the peeling in my opinion.
Or if you want to try it so bad, buy this product together with your mom or friends. At least you pay a half price or maybe less than just half then just do "Sisterhood of traveling pants" idea, taking turns to try it. In the end of the day, it is up to you because it's your skin!
Honestly, I have so much products to review here. I promise to back again, because I have to do things first. If you want to know more, just keep reading my blog. There are so many products like Glossier, Khiels, and Laneige to share in this blog. I promise! I'll be back!
Love you guys, I hope my writing does't confuse you and also you enjoy reading my articles. Hope my experience will help you to choose great products!
Thank you for reading!

Just say it's a perk to be a beauty writer. I got a chance to coverage a new renowned treatment for reducing fat from Surface Skin Habit. I already wrote all those details in CosmoGIRL! September Issue 2016. But, I think I should write it here too, since you guys who happens searching online could reach it easily.
Perut buncit, stretch mark, fat belly adalah hal yang sering kali jadi momok buat para cewek yaaaa. Talking about summer, skins everywhere! Bikini, one piece, swimsuits etc. Punya tubuh yang lebih kencang sih pasti nggak jauh-jauh dari olahraga dan mengubah pola makan. But, it's 2016! Apapun bisa kita lakukan hanya dengan duduk diam dan voila! lemak aja hilang.
Jadi ceritanya, ada program namanya Body Contouring. What? Contouring? It's for face.
Nope!
Sebelumnya, yang belum tau apa itu Surface Skin Habit, boleh nih dijelasin sedikit. Tahu kan tempat pijat releksi terkenal yang namanya Meiso? Nah ini ada hubungannya, Surface Skin Habit ini adalah salah satu cabang dari perusahaan yang mendirikan Meiso Refleksiologi dan Cocola Waxing.
Surface Skin Habit ini bergerak dibidang kecantikan, khususnya klinik kecantikan yang memiliki prinsip untuk melayani pelanggannya yang super sibuk. Karena di Surface Skin Habit ini, semua perawatannya nggak akan lebih dari 1 jam. Varian perawatannya pun yang ditawarkan cukup lengkap. Dari wajah hingga tubuh. Facialnya yang terkenal itu Hydradermabrasion (ini dijelasin lain waktu yaa hehehe).

Isi-isi data sambil ngobrol gitu deh ya intinya, penasaran banget deh awalnya. Karena kita have no idea kita bakal ngapain. Dijelaskan kalau kita itu bakal di massage tapi dengan alat yang yaaaa... lumayan bikin sakit karena dengan aliran listrik dan panas.
Body Tightening & Contouring
Body Tightening and Contouring adalah program perawatan dari Surface Skin Habit yang menggabungkan dua teknologi, yaitu radio frekuensi dan Dynamic Muscle Activation. Gimana cara program ini bekerja mengencangkan dan membentuk tubuh kita yang berlemak? Dengan mengantarkan panas ke dalam lapisan kulit, proses ini akan menstimulasi produksi kolagen, memperbaharui sel, serta menghancurkan lemak. Selain merangsang kolagen, perawatan ini juga akan melancarkan sirkulasi darah sehingga terjadi proses detoksifikasi.
Nah! Disini nih menariknya gengs!
Dari hasil beberapa pelanggan Surface, berkurangnya lingkar tubuh yang diinginkan setelah melakukan program ini dalam sekali tretament bisa mencapai 4cm dan kulit yang tadinya melar jadi lebih kencang, lho! 4 cm itu banyak loh! Perut atas, perut bagian yang ada pusarnya, sama perut bawah yang suka bikin baju bodycon jele' banget ya.
Ada keuntungannya nyobain ngajak Onic waktu hari itu. Karena perlu diperhatikan, kulit kita memiliki tingkat elastisitas dan kandungan produksi kolagen yang berbeda, jadi hasil pengurangan pada lingkar badan nggak semuanya drastis 4 cm. Jadi... belum tentu onic dan aku bakal keluar dengan hasil pengurangan lemak yang sama.
Sedikit info lagi,
Program Body Tightening dan Contouring yang tersedia di Surface Skin Habit ini nggak cuma untuk perut aja, lho. Tapi mencakup area perawatan dari wajah, perut, lengan, paha hingga pantat. Jadi, buat yang mau pipinya kecilan, silahkan....
Oke ini procedurnya pengerjaannya ya...
Pertama, Aesthetician akan mengukur bagian tubuh yang akan diberi perawatan, jadi kamu bisa melakukan perbandingan sebelum dan setelah melakukan perawatan. karena waktu itu bagian perut, jadi yang diukur itu perut atas, pinggang dan perut bawah. Setelah diukur dan berganti pakaian, kami berbaring di tempat tidur.
Disamping tempat tidur itu, terdapat alat pemijat yang besarnya sekepalan tangan yang diletakkan di samping tempat tidur dengan bola-bola kecil pada kepalanya. Nama alat pijat ini adalah Pollogen.
 |
| Pollogen |
Saat sudah berbaring, aesthetician memberikan sebuah gel bening pada permukaan kulit perut dengan tujuan untuk memperkecil efek rasa panas yang berlebihan ketika sedang dipijat dengan alat pijat yang menimbulkan energi panas ini.
Waktu pertama kali disentuhkan ke kulit, ada rasa setruman yang agak sakit. Nggak lebay kok, cuma kayak semut kecil cuma ada 10 aja gigit-gigit hahaha. Then, aesthetician will slowly and intensly moving the messenger tools, pollogen, giving a massage with circular motion and repeatedly forming a number 8 on your tummy, urutannya dimulai dari bagian kiri bawah lalu bergerak ke perut bawah dan seterusnya seperti arah jarum jam. Untuk setiap circular motion pada suatu area, panas yang diinginkan adalah 40 derajat celcius. Panas banget, lho gengs!
Pertama setelah selesai perawatan, bisa deh melihat perut jadi merah banget. Malahan, beberapa pelanggan ada yang sampai biru keesokan harinya. Tenang aja, rasa sakit ini lama-lama akan hilang kok. For me, I think it just lasted for 2 days after the treatment and thank god there's no bruises. Tapi beda sama onic, si Onic sampai 5 hari setelah perawatan masih bisa ngerasain sakitnya. Bukan sakit sih, apa yaaa kayak pegal gitu abis sit up 100 kali tanpa pemanasan.
Nah, Durasi satu kali perawatan cenderung sebentar sih, untuk area seperti perut dan paha bisa dilakukan hanya dengan waktu 30 menit dan bokong selama 60 menit. Cocok kan untuk orang sok sibuk macam saya inih ? Bisa ke Surface Skin Habit di waktu luang dan bisa pulang dengan perut yang lebih ramping hanya dalam 30 menit, broh.
Tapi ada yang harus digaris bawahi, program keep it tight ini dirancang untuk 6-8 kali perawatan yang dapat dilakukan setiap minggu dan dapat digabungkan pada target area tubuh yang diinginkan. Jadi biarpun sekali perawatan langsung berkurang 4cm, bukan berarti bertahan selamanya! Katanya, untuk sekali perawatan ini, kekencangan yang dirasakan bisa bertahan seminggu. Itupun dengan mengontrol asupan makanan yang nggak berlebihan. Dan.... sedikit peringatan aja sih, the price is not cheap. Sekali perawatan untuk fat belly ini seharga Rp900.000,- Dan harganya bisa gradually naik kalau areanya buat paha yang notabennya ada kanan sama kiri, trus bokong juga hehe
 |
| Produknya khusus dari Surface Skin Habit |
Setelah selesai dan tiba waktunya pengukuran!
Dari lingkar sebelum dan sesudah...
Delfa mendapatkan hasil:
lingkar perut atas berkurang 1,15 cm
lingkar pinggang 0,75 cm
lingkar pinggang 0,75 cm
lingkar perut bawah 0,25 cm
Sedangkan Kak Onic:
lingkar perut atas berkurang 3 cm
pinggang 4 cm
lingkar perut bawah 4 cm
Bisa beda banget, kan?!
Inilah yang dimaksud bahwa kulit dan pembakaran lemak di bawah kulit manusia itu berbeda-beda. Jadi kamu jangan berkecil hati kalau sekali melakukan program ini tapi berkurangnya hanya sedikit. Menariknya, program ini aman dilakukan setiap minggu dan saat sedang menstruasi sekalipun. Rasa sakit yang akan kamu rasakan akan berbeda-beda tergantung ketahanan tubuh terhadap panas dan tekanannya. When I tried this treatment, I was in my period dan itu hari kedua. Jadi, it's save.

Other things you should watch too to reduce those fatty:
Diet
The ugly truth about reducing bloating is diet. Kalau kamu nggak memulai mengganti pola makanmu yang tidak sehat, gimana mau menghilangkan lemak di bawah kulit dan perut yang buncit? Kurangi asupan garam dan gula berlebih, junk food atau makan cepat saji juga merupakan sumber lemak jenuh yang tidak sehat itu. Apalagi makanan yang diproses seperti frozen food dan canned food yang biasanya mengandung MSG. Mengurangi karbohidrat juga memberikan efek yang besar. Coba konsumsi banyak air putih dan minuman tanpa gula lainnya. Coba deh buat menu diet sehat dari sekarang! Kalau males untuk masak sendiri, sudah banyak banyak banget catering service yang menyediakan makanan sehat tanpa garam dan MSG.
Nih, aku rekomendasiin yaa yang aku konsumsi beberapa bulan terakhir ini.
Siapa yang nyangka sih kalau anak IT Binus yang hobi masak jadi pengusaha catering? Yes, stefani si pemilik ini adalah temenku. Dan awalnya aku gak tertarik sama sekali sih buat makan makanan sehat. Tapi, sampai akhirnya seperti di post jerawat update beberapa waktu lalu kalau makan itu penting buat diperhatikan. Apalagi yang mau bikin kulit mulus lus lus kayak song hye kyo.
Disamping stefani temen ai, jadi enak kalau mau ngabarin hari ini aku ada dimana dan minta dipindah pengantarannya ke tempat lain. Tapi, emang stefani baik banget kok gengs kalo mau ngurus sana sini buat kalian pindah waktu dan tempat pengantarannya. Recommended deh.
Enak enak lagi biarpun yaaaa sedikit.... namanya juga lose weight program.... HAHAHA
Exercise
Olahraga itu bukan bikin kurus, melainkan membentuk otot kita jadi lebih padat dan tidak berlemak. Selain membentuk otot yang lebih kecang, olahraga juga membantu pernapasan dan peredaran darah. Nah, coba deh ikuti beberapa kelas olahraga di gym, pilates, atau yoga. Atau, kalau kamu nggak tertarik untuk pergi ke gym, kamu bisa mengikuti latihan di YouTube sebagai personal trainer di rumah. Sediakan mat exercise dan kamu bisa berkeringat mengikuti gerakan-gerakan cardio sederhana yang ada di YouTube. But, just face the truth above all, olahraga tidak bakal berhasil membentuk tubuhmu menjadi lebih kencang kalau kamu tidak mengawasi pola makan sehatmu. Ingat, kalau kamu habis olahraga lalu makan mie instan yang kalorinya seperti 2 piring nasi, percuma dong… Okay, let’s say bye to fatty!

Okay, so....
If you see from the title, it's obvious this blog is about diet and exercise.
I've been starting to maintain my diet and work out routine since April 2016. It's started when I felt so unhealthy and my bad breakout in March 2016. So, I decided to take a Pilates class for starter.
I've never been a flexible nor good posture. Yes, I am a dancer. I used to.. for 4 years in college years but not meant to be a flexible one. Just a quite toned one, some parts (and that's obviously not my belly). But, I'm gonna share with you what exercise and how I feel now about back in the game.
Pilates
For many people who are curious about Pilates. It's a super fun and eye opening exercise. Pilates is an exercise that will make an high impact on your endurance and flexibility. It takes a lot of practice and time to be like Andien (the singer) or Selena Gomez. But, yeah. I feel like I'm getting to know my strength through pilates. The movement is not high impact as cardio does. But, still it's really tiring because you have to stretch and maximize your muscles with steady and slow movement. Repetition is the key. And 10 session is just right for a beginner for me.
My purpose to do pilates sessions is to make my posture better. I was constantly having a back pain in the morning and easy to get tired during the day. Since I started my pilates session every Saturday morning at 6 am, I feel more aware which part of my body is weaker and stronger to hold my weight. And the advantage is... since I have pilates session every saturday morning, I am able to wake up early every saturday. Done doing shower at 8 am and have my breakfast. It's like a miracle and also it's a productive Saturday for me.
You know, with the deadline, just starting to run my own designer house, waking up early morning every saturday is like opening a door of fortune chamber.
I take my class in My Pilates Studio Ciranjang, Kebayoran Baru.
When I started, my instructor is Sari. She's about my age and she's a energetic person. I love her passion of traveling and fashion. But now, I changed to Mrs. Uray last month because Sari is pursuing her career as fashion designer.
Both of them are really funny and really cautious about training my posture every session.
The price is quite expensive. Pilates is not a yoga. It looks like yoga with equipment but it's a total different!
The price may vary.
For one visit starts from 350.000 for Apprentice, 450.000 for Junior Certified, 600.000 for Senior Certified, and 720.000 for Fully Certified.
For 10 sessions may vary from Rp3.000.0000,- to Rp6.500.000,- depends whom you're training with.
And it's also safe for pregnant woman. So it's all certified.
In Jakarta, there are so many pilates places. But, if you wanna take a look at my place.
Here's the address :
My Studio Pilates
Ciranjang No. 6, Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta.
+62 82125-881-881
Now, I'm gonna talk about yoga. I used to soon cynical about Yoga. I mean, it's boring. It's not high impact like cardio and it's done by meditating. I never thought yoga is capable to make me sweat enough. BUT!
Here's the funny thing.
I'm in love with YOGA! I love yoga!
It's simple, no need any equipment (only the matt) and also cheaper than pilates. And it's also high impact. I was underestimating Yoga could make me sore and sweat like crazy.
My high school friend is a yoga instructor. When I saw her post in Path (she's opening a yoga session. Private.) I was thinking "maybe I should try.. I would never know it's working if I don't try.
So, I booked her to a private session at my house on Sunday at 7 AM.
oh well, Her name is Soraya and she's been practicing yoga since 2010. She's certified and she's so patience with my inability LOL.
You know what? YOGA IS FUCKING HARD!
Who said it's not a high impact?! I was sweating like crazy when I hold a warrior position HAHA.
Since my first session, I fell in love!
Now I have two sessions every weekend. Saturday for Pilates and Sunday for Yoga.
Never thought I could do a head stand, or.. anything goes backward. HAHAHA.
And she said I'm so strong and flexible. What? That's nuts!
Yoga and pilates are my jam now!
For those who's been looking for Yoga Instructor, I think you should try Yoga with Soraya.
Here's the contact:

Okay the last one that's become a habit... is buying sport apparel. From Cotton On to Adidas. Ivy Park to Stella McCartney. It is like an addiction to buy those clothes. Since a mood booster of a training session is wearing a great sport bra and uber comfy legging. Also, a great mat on the floor.
You know, things are really easy now. To get those uber cool stuff. Sport bra is actually my aesthetic. But sometimes, I feel hard to purchase those thing in the store. Because when I go to the store, I never really make up my mind to buy. Then, I have to go back and forth and so on. It's tiring.
But thank god for technology. Thank you E-Commerce!
I love to search and buy on my favorite e-commerce site, zalora.co.id. It's easy, fast and safe. Thank you!
Recently, I'm craving to have these athleisure gear from Ivy Park that you could find on zalora.co.id
This legging is legit
You know legging is quite useful when you're in traveling. My past holiday in Bali last July is like legging day for full 5 days. It's easy to dry and also not taking too much space in the suitcase. HAHA
I will make a separate post about holiday, okay?
This sport bra is now Rp382.500,- !!!! NOOO
And this sweatpants are great too tho Elastic Waistband Peached Joggers
I think I'm going to have these guys soon (well.. payday please come faster).
Well... guys! I think It's time to leave now.
Just keep on healthy guys!
Happy exercising!

You know Ivy Park by Beyonce. The Queen B launched her own athleisure outfit a little while ago. She produced her collection under TOPSHOP garment manufacturer. So it is amazing.
It's simple and a lot of grey color Which is great. And I think, her choise to be a TOPSHOP partner is the best decision so far.
Recently, I'm craving to have these athleisure gear from Ivy Park that you could find on zalora.co.id
