Feature Portfolio

chic-blogspot-themeFeel free to browse through my portfolio, which contains selection of works that I did under simplyWP (for web design) and during the early freelancing period (for print graphic design). Girly chic is my design style, though I'm flexible most of the time.

Take a look back

I was browsing into one of my blog’s categories, take a peek and came across this entry One year: ago, now, later on May 2008, where I wrote about the summary of my life and comparing them from 2007 to 2009.

Here is what I wished to achieve for year 2009 (I wrote this on 2008) :

1 year later (read: 2009)

- I will be in Singapore with the boyfriend. Had a minimalist princess room with Ikea furniture. I’ll separate half for the prince room.

- I will be working at a medium size advertising agency or design studio in Singapore. Maintaining blogs at the same time and probably checking on EcoQuest International profile online.

- Good bye LDR.

- I will have a Sony Ericsson phone with mp3, camera, and most importantly able to online. No more flip phone is fine.

- I will own a 19? iMac. Save place than owning a 19? desktop.

- Still black hair with a shoulder length. Or maybe a curly one.

The fact is:

- I still stay with my family in my hometown, Medan, and fly to KL once in two months or so. The dream of working in Singapore, as a way to end LDR, has vanished.

- I stepped into web design world, work as a freelancer at home, and never look back. As the result, I developed dark eye circles due to long hour work sometimes, but income is pretty sweet and I have my time in my hands.

- Still in LDR. Good news, we will tie the knot end of this year. Can’t wait to say goodbye to LDR!

- My love towards pink stuffs continues. I am a proud owner of pink LG Ice Cream KF350. The best mobile phone I ever bought. Too bad it doesn’t have wifi thing.

- Still using Dell desktop. No longer have interest in the fragile Mac.

- Still black hair. But it’s curly instead of straight hair. No more bob style as I’ve started to grow it.

What-I-achieve-now is totally different from what-I-wanted-to-achieve-back-then. Well, no regret so far. I’m glad to be who I am today and have what I have today.
