Sam Goes Visual: I went back home! (11.10.13 - 16.10.13)

So, I know that you didn't know, hahahaha, but I went back home a few weeks ago. It's been on my to-do list to post this, but my internet connection goes meh at me, and thesis is also meh. Just pray that I could finish it all faster so that I got a lot more free time! :D Now, let's follow me and enjoy tracing back through my short holiday memories ;)

 Started up with the routine airport waiting, of course. Wore my freshly cut ripped jeans and got stared at. Yeah, whatever.


I forgot which day is it, but we ate at sushi tei, finally. I ordered the spicy crispy roll (I think) and my favorite inari. To tell you the truth, I think the taste didn't worth all the waiting list and price I gotta pay. 

We ate baskin after lunch on the way to Sentul. Cookies and cream with a not very crunchy oreos. 




Went to jungle land at Sentul, but none went in. Since half of us couldn't ride the ride, we decided that it's a waste of money. Hahaha

Soo, we decided to go to a more family friendly place, which is Ah Poong at Sentul city. They said there is pasar apung (floating market) there, but there's none. Some of the attraction are not very well maintain, and the so called eco park is still on progress. Basically just a place to eat and take a picture. Kind of boring, I said.

Dude, I don't know if that's a normal size for a guy as big as him. I was thinking that it is kinda small for him. HAHAHAHA


I am not crying, but I'm not smiling either. This was taken on the red bridge, I called it unstable bridge. I'm not that afraid of height, but I hate it when I could see the bottom of a high place, yet I couldn't stand firmly on my legs, since the bridge shakes likes crazy when someone walk through it.

The journey ended up with us eating at a japanese ramen store near my aunty home, it's called Chin Ma Ya. I ordered a small portion of tonkotsu ramen. It's probably the best ramen I ever taste so far.

Watched gravity on my last day. It's an okay movie. I don't know whether I'm gonna watch it or not if the main cast is not George Clooney and Sandra Bullock tho. The long filler is too boring for me.

The last thing I ate before flying back to boarding house. Some boasted that this is the best burger ever. Yeah right. I still like Carl's Jr better.

Last but not least, if you're not entering my giveaway yet, do join! 2 days to go guys. Link is on the right sidebar ;)

For My Own Satisfaction: Lucido-L triple beauty vitamin spray for damaged hair

I want to post this since last week, but stupid internet connection just won't let me open my new post tab. Silly. My internet didn't work well with my old laptop (or Fernando, as I called him. Hahahaha). Anyho, I heard it recently that Lucido-L is finally released on Indonesian market. Surprisingly, it entered a more middle class cosmetic market. Basically something that you could just grab on any drugstore with a reasonable price. Since I was curious, and I was about to do my monthly shopping anyway, I decided to grab some.

Here we go, full bottle shoot. 
Comes in a fairly normal spray bottle. Kind of looks like a plant spray or not? Hahaha. The bottle is made of a thin yet hard plastic material. I guess it won't break with just one fall of the hands accident, tho I won't bother trying it out. The price is fairly cheap for a japan brand. It cost me IDR 30.325 (about US$ 3 I think?), or cheaper cause it was on sale when I bought it.

Of course, I'm buying one for damaged hair. My hair is pretty dry with some split ends too, thanks to my hair coloring routine. I've tried some hair vitamin before this, but they're just so oily, and I hate the oily after effect it left on my hands and hair, so I just stop using it. Hahahaha

Back shoot. Ingredients and all the blah blah explanation. It claimed to be able to make your damaged hair shiny, smooth and moist. I've been using it for almost two weeks now, and I gotta tell you, it worked like magic. My hair used to be so hard to handle when I woke up in the morning, now I rarely got a bad hair after I woke up. There's some difference on how smooth the hair on my top half and the bottom half. Since I only spray it on my bottom half, obviously my bottom half hair is smoother. It's not that much shiny per se, but I guess that's just because of the color that I choose for my hair. Hahaha

This is how the spray looks like. Just a normal spray I guess. Maybe it's just me, but the nozzle reminds me of the spray bottle my mom got for her orchid. If I gotta search for a spray bottle for my cosmetic spray, this is probably the last variant on my list. Hahahaha. Good thing is that the nozzle spray the liquid pretty evenly and just in the right amount. You don't want to spray too much at once, since you'll waste some product that way. Oh, and it comes with a safety lock!
Turn the stopper to the front, and the spray is locked. Don't have to be afraid of leak when you put it on your bag, or when you packed it on your suitcase. Obviously travel friendly although the bottle is a little bit on the big size (200ml).

Turn the stopper to the side (either side works) to unlock.

You would think the liquid color is orange, turned out to be a transparent looking liquid. Very water-like, so it didn't leave any heavy and oily feelings on either your hair and hand. And it smells good too! But since my nose is fairly sensitive to things like perfume and such, I got dizzy after smelling it for a long time. Don't worry, that's just me. I'll get dizzy from smelling the car perfume on a taxi too. Hahahaha

And, that's that. Tell me what you think about it ;)
