In first impression of his drawings i thought they are young, free, and fun. It also reflected from Giraldo's website favicon that using turquoise anchor and using sailor theme which sailor hat as his web symbol. If you observe more, some of his drawings also about pirates & sailor. But the half side, he also like to draws animals. Yup, definitely some cute animals!

Well, do you agree with me that Giraldo's drawings are cool? :D The last i wanna share to you about him is that i loved not only the drawings but also the message from each picture. How he try to tell us, that you have to recognize who you are, who you want to be, and what you want to do in your life, so just do what makes you happy. Also i learned about fighting my own fear, we are young and there's much hope to brighten your life. So cheer up guys, lets fight together :)

Since a few days ago, i'm start to cook my own lunch. As i am a wanderer, its more healthy & more efficient than buying meal outside. Here's a couple photos of what i cooked. Officialy proud of my self. hehehe.. :p

Sayur bening bayam, tahu tepung, tempe tepung, & sambal kecap

Cah kangkung, tahu tepung, tempe tepung, chicken lolipop twirled with noodle, & sambal kecap.

You might think that those menus are too simply, but for me that's a new start for new passion. It's fun when you're in kitchen and wasting time for create pleasure for your self. With empty stomach you'll more satisfied with your meal. Even if they're not too good or just standart. LOL. But mine is good enough ;p

As a newbie, i promise that i'll post my next experience about home cooking :D
