Ten States One Year

Hei, actually I pretty much has no style to offer today

However I have something interesting (at least for me!!) ;p

I realized that I've spent a year here in the states

Though I'm studying in Iowa, the small but pleasant town..

I have been to some places over the states

1 year 1/5 of this big big island 

Let's see....

next in line was Chicago. My other family lives there too

Honestly it was my first time seeing the real america like the one I saw on TVs.

When I hit downtown. Well, that's what I saw!! :)

1st picture was in Sears/Willis tower (104th floor) - and 2nd picture was in Bahai temple in suburb area

though it was a very short trip, but I found it fun

Lake Geneva you can go on boat ride and play on the beach

but since my family do not enjoy boat rides. We went around the town and get some 

homemade ice creams and cakes! They're TOP!!!

Place where I spend most of my time in

It's where my university located, University of Northern Iowa

first picture is my 1st time seeing my university , 2nd picture we were in Waterloo (Cattle Congress - theme park and farm) and the 3rd picture at UNI's campanile during homecoming

where everyone can kiss the one they love together while hearing UNI songs below the campanile! 

My birthday and christmas present from my uncle and aunt

Ticket to NY!! :)

NY is my favorite city afterall! and Times square is my favorite. Though I went there during winter

and shower always disturbed my tours, I love it and fall deeply in love into it!

First picture was in Times Square and the second .. you know! Liberty statue, liberty island!

The toughest adventure.

I went there on bus for 17hrs each trip (34 hrs. round trip)

I passed nebraska back then but I didn't take any picture because it was too dark and by that time

I was ttooooo tired

But it pays! It was my first time snow shoeing and I got nose bleed and dizziness because the altitude was too high. And when I ride the horse (myself!! *;p) at first the horse jump and lifted the two front legs so that I was like WOOOO! NO! but 'Monkey', his name, was a really good Pony!! :) we ended up being friends. 

I'm sure I lost few pounds from that trip! >.<

It was a day trip on my grandma's birthday during this summer break

really interesting place to go

The Amish people never use electricity and buttons on their clothing

and all done so traditionally. A must visit! 

Dream come true! I was singing Lilo and Stitch's song the whole trip!

It was so fun. I went there to meet up with my grandparents who did a touring around the states 

first picture was me in Waikiki beach and the 2nd was a picture in Pearl Harbor

I was not really satisfied since I did not do any island hopping.. anyway I will go there again next time

to see other things I missed

The nicest ! Why? Because first of all I got to see some of my old friends from Highschool and also some new friends too :) 

Next on the line, you gotta know I really adore disney ! And finally I went to Disneyland (my 1st time)

and I really love it especially the shows <3 lovely 

I want to go back to those times. First picture was in some place like maybe Farmer's market or so, but the place is very pretty like European style kind of thing. And the 2nd picture, obviously, disneyland

we also went to Hollywood, and Universal studio as well as Santa Monica

but I posted the pics already! 

a year has gone well.

and I hope after those time

I will also have another fun year .. 

More plan visit perhaps: Arizona (visit my friend), Florida (funs!), Michigan (another friend), Las Vegas (fun fun!!), and San Fransisco.

Well I also want to go to Hawaii (again) and Seattle ..

and maybe next December and Summer I'll go back home to Indonesia 

as well as a little visit to (maybe) Poland and Denmark if I can (it's my friend's marriage and I think going there for a little visit might be sweet. and go by train to Denmark to visit my another great friend!) 

Do you have any suggestion of any pretty places to go ???

Love,
