I'm back~ XP

..has it been a century since the last time I updated my blog entry?! O_o Welp.. I'm back,then. Wkwkwk~ ^^

Last Sunday,in a rainy day,I went to the church,slipped off & fell to the ground. DAMMIT. T3T
But I keep believe that God will guide me savely through my destination,and that's what He've done~ :D
Through this church visit,I learned 3 things :

Nothing is impossible for The Lord. He will guide me until all of my dreams & hope comes true. :)

Every people who trusts Him,including me,must be ready to be used by God,to make big changes in this world,immediately. Because if we wait longer,the situation wouldn't be the same as the situation when God could still use us.

Sometimes blessings come as problems to us,so there's always a blessing in every problem.

And then.. From the church,me,Randy,and all his friends,went to have some meal at... SUSHI TEI?! HUH?!? I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY!!!!! O3o;;
Randy told me that he could lend his money for me,so I felt much releaved.. But once both of us read the menu,we was like.. Oh. Mai. Gosh~
..which ended up in driving us to taking some money from the ATM (Money machine). Heheheee~ ^^;;
Both of us went back with holding Rp 50.000 in our hand. :P
We ordered 4 plates of sushi (@ 6 pieces of sushi on each plate).. But me & myself,who's still not feeling satisfacted,went to order a japanese vanilla yogurt,which costs Rp 26.000.
As the result,I have to spend Rp 76.000 for myself in here. Unfortunately,the yogurt bill was added to the bill of one of Randy's friends.. So I must borrow Randy's Rp 20.000,because the only money left in my wallet was Rp 56.000.
..lucky my mum was going there,and finally paid him the Rp 20.000. XP

(I asked Randy to take a photo together,but both of us were so freakingly weird in here,dammit. -3-)

Indonesian mode on. >:D

W naik ke lantai atas & ke Magic Counter. Ada Harris (temen Frankdick,yang saat itu masih blom pulang).. Dia manggil w masuk ke counter terus dia mainkan trik kartu (yang udah pasti nggak dikasi tau triknya sebelom w jd member disana. -_-).. Terus dia cabut alias pulang. Tinggallah Bang Ian bersama seorang cewe -- yang menurut dugaan w,istrinya.

W liat kayaknya flunya Bang Ian parah banget tuh.. Sampe2 dy pake syal.. W ajak bicara koq konsentrasinya kayak agak2 buyar gitu.. Duh,ga enak nih. >_<
Terus pas w kasih tau kalo w tinggal ngumpulin Rp 100.000 lagi biar bisa kursus disana,dia bilang w harus nampilin 3 trik sulap dulu,& jurinya dia sendiri.. Berarti w harus berusaha keras donk~!!! >:D

Yesterday (Monday)..
I went to Vika's house (to celebrate the birthday of our idol magician,Rhomedal Aquino. XP) & she teaches me a trick to 'make a coin sip into our hand'.
Wow! Thanks a lot,Vika..! I'll train myself to use this trick on my audition for Magic Counter! XD

Today...
..sorry,Indonesian mode on. XD

Hari ini,w ke Pasar Petisah sama mum w.. Yessh! W dapet kaos kaki jaring2 lagi,terus w dibeliin gelang kaca (w pillih yg warna merah-putih) ama mum w! woo-hoo~ Xd
Terus,w ke rumah famili..
& ternyata,2 orang anggota famili gw,ko Cen Sing & ci Mei Mei,tau banyak soal hal2 gereja & menceritakannya ke gw. W seakan merasakan berkat yang mengalir.. :')
Terus,w main beberapa trik sulap. Trik andalan w, 'Genap-ganjil',uda ktauan ama famili2 gw. Fuhee~ XP

(Cara main 'Genap-Ganjil' : Pertama,susun dulu kartunya. Bagi jadi 2 tumpukan. Satu tumpukan kartu isinya ganjil semua,satu lagi genap. J & K ganjil sedangkan Q genap. Nah,persilahkan penonton nunjuk tumpukan mana aja. Terus,suruh dia ambil 1 kartu dari tumpukan tersebut,hafal kartunya,jangan kasih gw liat.. Oke,lalu ambil tumpukan yang 1 lagi & suruh penonton masukkan disitu. Suruh dia kocok sebanyak2nya. Mo dikocok kek,mo dishuffle kek,mo dibreak kek,mo digimmick kek pasti kamu bakal menemukan kartunya. Percaya dech. Xd)

..yah,have a nice day dech,semuanya~ :D

Express magical time. :P

Naah..
Today,I felt really happy.. maybe as an effect of what had happened yesterday..

..yesterday..
I went to Thamrin Plaza (Medan,North Sumatera,Indonesia) with my mum.
(..you know,I had a weird habit of going to this plaza every afterschool,since I'm still 4..until when I'm 11, [because at my 6th grade of my primary school,a brand new plaza,which is called 'Sun Plaza',was "born" near my house. And I started to went there by walking..almost never going to Thamrin Plaza since then. ^^;;] so.. almost every staffs,who's working there,know me & my mum.. yeah,in other words,me & my mum were "popular" at Thamrin Plaza. O_O;;)
We ate our dinner (yeaah,dinner~) at D'loft,which is located on the 7thfoor. XD
Then,I wrote a "reccomendation" to my friends on my status update on my Facebook,so that maybe me & my friends could eat there. Xd

Then,outside D'loft,there's a magic shop.
I wished that I could came here more often,so that I could learn about how to be a classic magician.. :(
buuut.. However,I still prefer 'Magic Counter' better.
..Why? Because,I could go there only by walking. Xd
..plus,look at the poker card decks sold there.
Only one trademark. RP 80.000. MATI AJA DEH. TuT

Then,me & my mum went to Matahari Department store.
...at that moment,maybe my 'mentalist instinct' suddenly awake.. (hahahaaa~ X'D)
I looked at the stuffs sold there.. there were guitars,accoustic guitars,ukuleles,skateboards,dominos,all stuffs about what we usually play outdoors on recreations...

...then,there must be a poker card sold here,somewhere..!

So,I looked everywhere.. and finally,I looked on the bottom side of the etalase..
AND FREAKIN' YEAH. I found them. Woo-hoo~ XD
Me & some staffs of Matahari (yeah,they know me & my mum. O_O) were talking..about my ambition of learning some magic tricks.. :P
The deck sold there at that time was Rp 18.000..
So,I said to one of the staffs,'..bang,kalo aku bisa 1 trik sulap,ntar diskon ya..!' (translation : '..sir,if I could do a magic trick,I'll get a discount for this card,okay?')

..then,all of them (including my mum) were started to be amazed.
I tried to open the glass box of card,but it won't open. So I take out my Rp 1000 money note from my wallet instead. -_-
So.. I showed them my trick.
I folded the note & put it in my hand (with a special finger position), & started to swing it up & down.
1..2..3. flap.
I "disappear"ed it and "re-appear"ed it again.
And seems they were kinda fascinated with it. Thank God,I'm glad. X3

Then,me & all the staffs were talking about my ambition of entering 'The Master season 8' (if I could! Mwahahah~!!! X'D)..
I imitated Rhomedal Aquino's clapping style,then Rizuki's.. and then,MINE.
I uprighted my thumb,my index finger,and my middle finger (to make number '8') from my left hand,then I clapped my right palm near my left wrist area (seeing this 'insane action' of mine,my mum was almost laughing while she shooked her head,lol. XDD)

..then,as time passes by,finally I could own that poker deck. (thank God..my first poker deck~~~ TuT) And at the moment me & my mum walked out Matahari,I didn't forget to say 'Dukung aku ya,kak..!' ('Support me,okay ma'am..!')
SORRY. I HAVE A SHITTY ENGLISH. T^T

*..Ahem*
Back to everything happened today. XD
I surfed with my Mozilla firefox,while Joan made a phone-call to my handy phone,asking me about Jennico's telephone (not handphone) number..
..about 0.00208 day later,Joan called back & said that her tuition teacher apparently didn't come to teach her & Jennico.

Theeen,after my bro came home,I went upstairs & Joan called me again.
She said that both of us will go to Sun Plaza after she had arrived in my house... one hour later,because she's still have to take a shower at the moment. ^^;;
..finally,she arrived & we went to Sun Plaza together.
We walked fast,dunno why,which makes us thinks that both o us were walking'express'. Hahahaaa~ XD
We went to Amazon to play Ninja Assault & Dance Maniax 2nd Mix.. but somehow because there weren't too many people here,I couldn't 100% enjoy the play.. weird,huh..? D;

Then,we ate Texas Chicken at Cabe Rawit Foodcourt,went to 'Magic Counter' (to ask the Head Magician about how to perform magic tricks with my card I've bought yeterday,because it's rather slippy & not made of paper,dammit. T3T)
After we "express"ed to Gramedia bookstore,we finally "express"ed to my house.
..in my house,there were only me & Joan,because my bro hasn't come home yet & my mum is still at the doorsmeer (...because my mum's car somehow smells like belacan. EEWWW. DX)
Then,after Joan's car had arrived & she went home,I went upstairs to take a shower. After that,I went downstairs again to use my bro's PC..

...just a few moments before My bro & his GF,sis Lina,enters the room.
Oh well,then my bro asks me abut where I was,& I told him I was at Sun Plaza,to consut about my poker card.

..then,I showed my "disappear & reappear" trick using my card,to both of them! Nyahahah~ XD
According to sis Lina,I must practice harder so that the trick won't fail.
Of course. Practice makes perfect,right~? ;3

..upstairs,my mum (which has return home) was watering her flowers,so I'm alone in my mum's room,practicing some magic tricks I know (so far only two. T_T)..
And,when my mum enters the room,I realized that my bro & sis Lina has gone to the college. O_O;;
Soo.. here I am. Typing all of these after recording a video clip of one of my magic tricks (a magician on 'Magic Counter' teaches me,lol. XD)

..First,I have 4 Jacks.

then,we put all of them here.

Then we take the card in the upper side.

put that card on the center row.

then,for the second Jack,we take it & put it on the center row again. Do this repeatedly until the fourth (last) Jack.

..believe it or not,I'll move all those Jacks to the top. CLICK!

..hard to believe? :P

Believe it or not. XD

But.. OMG!! What happened to the last Jack!?!

*sob sob* seems I've failed.. okay,I'll put it on here...

CLICK.

..again,believe it or not. XDD

I'm Margareth Veronica,welcome to The Master 8~!! (lol,kidding. ;P)

..okay,if u think that I could play cheat on this trick because I use photoes,u could check the video on my facebook,hahaha~~ :D

~ A path for me to walk on to be a magician,still far away. Ganbate,myself~!! >:D

Hi all~ :D

..Seems this is my second blog after http://pinky-strike.blogspot.com . XD
From now on,I'll write my activities in this blog~ :D
Hope you like it~ ^^

..well,yesterday,I went to church with one of my classmate,Randy.
This is my first time going to church..not with girls (because my friend which is a girl says that she's lazy to go to the church,dammit. -_- )
But.. I don't mind.
I walked to Sun Plaza & we met each other inside the church,anyway. (the church is inside the plaza & the plaza is very near with my house,lol~) :D

..to be honest,I feel more comfortable rather that going to church with the girls I don't really know,hahaha.. X'D

Then,me,Randy,Jeffry (his friend who's only in a first grade of Junior High School),and other peoples (because I dunno their name) went to eat some meal..
and,we finally went to 'Magic Counter' with magician-mental. Xd
It's our first time going there,but I really want to learn some magic,and it's my heart's wish~ :D

...Indonesian mode ON. :P

Pas w ama temen2 nyampe di 'Magic Counter'...
W bingung mesti ngomong apa sama bang Ian,Head Magician sekaligus penjaga toko disana...
...sampe dia tiba2 ngomong '..ya? ada yang bisa saya bantu?'
Lalu w nanya soal harga buat kursus magic disana.

Kalo khusus Mentalist Rp 500.000 (sekali bayar untuk selamanya)

Kalo khusus Kecepatan Tangan Rp 400.000 (sekali bayar untuk selamanya)

Kalo khusus Illusionist Rp 250.000 (per tahun)

Kalo untuk kesembilan aliran Rp 250.000 (per tahun)

...makanya w bingung mo pilih yang mana.
W pengin blajar Kecepatan tangan biar bisa kayak Rhomedal Aquino ato Rizuki~ XD
Tapi lama2 jadi pengen jadi Mentalist,kayak Sam White,bisa macem2~
W ga pernah berpikir buat jadi Illusionist sampe bang Ian ngilangin koin & munculin dari belakang kepala w...!!!! O_O
(yeah,tapi pas w tanya tmn2 FB w melalui status update,sejauh ini ga ada yang pilih Illusionist. -_-)

...okay?
Kinda fascinated with all the magic tricks by all the magician on 'Magic Counter',we don't realize that the time keeps running out... UNTIL MY MOM 'SUDDENLY APPEARS' NEAR OUR LOCATION. O_O

I don't have any money yet to -even- buy a deck of poker cards sold there.. because..
Cards sold there are..man..very expensive.
The cheapest,Rp 50.000 (WHAT?!) have an unknown trademark (ROFLOL. X'D)
Aaaaand.. the cheapest deck of the 'Bicycle' trademark is -even- Rp 75.000. kill me now. T3T

..oh well.
I still don't know which should I choose,whether it's to make myself become a Mentalist,a Classic Magician,an Illusionist,or maybe.. a magician that have all of them,perfected with my own creativity..?
..ah. Time wil tell,no? :P

Back to everything happened today. XD

I was rather disappointed of my mum,who doesn't let me to buy a scanner today. BOO-HOO. T^T
But.. I hope that on this Saturday,things would change...no? X3

..nah,time to edit my blogskin.
(I kinda love this one. Lotsa poker cards in here~~ XD)
