Walikilia

*****

I've been living in the world of wonder since I was three. I've always been a book freak, book worm, book addict, and a book snob since then. My favorite and most valued room in my home is my library called Walikilia. Home to more than 2000 titles of storybook, fantasy, poems, philosophy, non-fiction, magazine, and mostly classic literatures.

Some books are very beloved, in an unhealthy posessive way: I got anxious everytime someone hold my book in the wrong way, fold the pages in the wrong way, and 'torture' my dearest books. A total freak, I might say. Ironicly, that's the reason why my lifetime dream of having a bookstore of my own is not yet come true. I'm too posessive.

I'm thrilled everytime I browse the old smell of a library, get excited everytime I browse through new book titles, and believe that books are ready to take me to new adventures now and then. Book and stories for me are not just a love affair, it is a true love: one thing that defines me and can't be separated.

So, my dear reader, what is your favorite book? Photobucket

Hey, pretty outfit! It's truly Indonesian style, which is very gorgeous.. I love how you combine the top and batik skirt. Modern yet still traditional somehow.. :)

great indonesian based look ! i love how the headband and shoes add a modern touch..

RE: itu efek foto nya buat di photoshop.. cmn mainin color balance sama exposure aja koo.. agak susah yah jelasin pk kata2 doang.. soalnya proses gampang cmn agak ribet aja.. hrs sabar biar efek nya terlihat natural :) hehe.. trus bnyk main tumpuk2 layer juga (biar sebagain area bs lbh terang - seperti jendela nya- dan sbagian lbh gelap)
