Moving In Giveaway!

Yay! I've been wanting to do this for a while, but the time didn't let me. Now that I finally get a free time, I'll held it anyway :D This is gonna be the first giveaway on my new blog, celebrating me moving to this blog. I prepared this in a rush, so I hope you don't mind there's not a lot of prize here.

One winner will win

1. Maybelline [Lip] Smooth Color Bloom, Color Changing Lip Balm in shade #Pink Blossom.

2. Maybelline Clear Smooth Extra Shine Free Powder Foundation in shade #03 Natural

3. Maybelline Clear Smooth Aqua Gel Foundation in shade #22 Natural Beige

4. Maybelline Clear Smooth Minerals Healthy Natural Concealer in shade #Medium-Sand

I tried to choose everything in a more neutral color, and I'm hoping it fitted to the general skin shade. Maybelline tend to have their real product shade a little darker than what's shown on the package, so I hope the shade is just perfect (or so I hope). Although I do think the concealer is a little too dark. Hmmm... Anyway, moving on!

Brain Vitamin: John Green's An Abundance of Katherines

Hello humphreys! On today's BRAIN VITAMIN corner, I'm gonna talk about one of my favorite author book, which is, the infamous An Abundance Of Katherines. Not too long ago, I accidentally walked through periplus bookstore. If you're not living in Indonesia, periplus bookstore is a bookstore that sell a lot of imported books. So if you're looking at book on this store, chances are they are all in english. 

I bought the paperback version of it, and this one is published by Dutton Books USA. It was sold for US$9.99 in USA, but I bought it somewhere around $15 here or $18, I don't know. You know, taxes and all that shit. I don't know about ordering directly from USA, but I guess that would cost me quite a number too, considering I need to pay the shipping.

Summary

When it comes to relationship, Colin Singleton's type is girls named Katherine. And when it comes to girls named Katherine, Colin is always getting dumped. Nineteen times, to be exact. On a road trip miles from home, this anagram-happy, washed-up child prodigy has ten thousand dollars in his pocket, a bloodthirsty feral hog on his trail, and an over-weight, Judge Judy-loving best friend riding shotgun--but no Katherines. Colin is on a mission to prove The Theorem of Underlying Katherine Predictability, which he hopes will predict the future of any relationship and avenge Dumpees everywhere, and may finally win him the girl.

Basically, a book about this Colin trying to predict his love relationship by using some kind of math formulas. That's crazy. I won't even think about math outside from class. Not a strange things though. Considering he's or used to be according to him, a child prodigy. I don't know why he's always looking for a girl named Katherine, I mean, Samantha sounds good right? Hahahaha. I want to write some spoiler, but I hate spoiler so much, so I guess I won't write anything more about the content, in case you didn't read it yet.

Anyway, I found Green's vocabulary explaining about the dumping phenomenon funny.

Dumper = This annoying person who dump someone.

Dumpee = Pitiful person who is dumped.

And there is math. Lots of it. LOTS. So if you're a math dummy like me, I've warned you.

One of the fact that I like from the story is that finally, finally, finally, I found a main characters that loves reading so much. Not just, yeah I read books. But YEAH I READ BOOKS!! 

"He liked all books, because he liked the mere act of reading, the magic of turning scratches on a page into words inside his head."

I'm so in love with that sentence I ended up highlighting it. Never. I mean, never in my entire life, I used a highlighter on my books aside from my college books. I love them too much to ruin them with the highlighter. This one is my first exception.

In case you're wondering what's that annoying red ribbons on top of my book, here it is.

It's just my lazy-made bookmark. With quotes from the book, topped with some random vector. 

That's that. I hope it's not too boring. I'll talk about another book I love on my next vitamin corner! If you have any books suggestion though, don't be afraid to comment. Bye humphreys!

Misc: Brand New Day

Hello humphreys!! (Nah, I didn't even know what I mean by humphreys, I'm guessing that's just how I want to call you. hahaha) Welcome to my brand new blog.

After a lot of thinking in between waiting for sleepiness to take in, I finally decided to move on to another blog. I got 2 blogs before this. I already deleted one (which, by the way, I couldn't even remember the blog name, only the email I used for it), and there's another one waiting for the judgement day.

It's not that I don't like my 2 other blog, but there's just something missing with them. That something caused me to ended up ignoring it for a long while. Posting seems like a burden. I feel like... I don't know. It's my blog, but it doesn't feel quite fulfilling having it.

So that's why I decided to make my new blog! Brand new one, with design done by yours truly. I decided to do my own design now, in an attempt to make it more mine. Of course, it's still not 100% made by me, since all the fonts and vectors I used are ready to use supply. But still, I'm the one who put it together. Yay me!

I'm gonna make sure this blog is my last and final one! *crossfinger*
