EffBoy Went Under The Knife
Hai Ho all u niggas! Yo Yo Yo! Watcha beyatches been up 2? Y'all good? Yno i'm good. Nevah been bettah! Daayemn!

...So, it's been about 8 days since I gave birth to this blog. And there still hasn't been much activity going on down here. But I am proud to say that this blog is looking prettier and prettier by the day. And I felt it would be injustice to start officially posting new things till I am certain that the design of the blog, would be the design that would create the feel that I initially aimed for. The specific feeling of "Irfan Prawiradinata". The certain ambiance of "EffBoy". The ambiance like no other. The orgasmic feeling that would make you come back begging for more of me ...(?)... Okay that went too far.

Now let's get snappy! After a whole of week full of cyber surgery, I'm happy to report the changes EffBoy has undergone so far... *cue rubber gloves snap*
  • The Header. I'm pretty proud of this header, for some people have said they liked it :)
  • The Background. From plain white, to now spazzy repeats of my name in golden cut-out letters, lol.
  • The Sidebar. Every Superhero needs a sidekick, like all blog's need a sidebar. So, to put the beauty of EffBoy in great perspective, i added dull grey to give that "pop" effect for the rest of the layout. Oh, and pink for links (hey that rhymes)...
  • Funky Widgets! Yes readers, this blog's template uses old CSS html. Not the new ones that I'm guessing most of you use now. I personally like it better coz it's easier to customize rather than the newer versions. BUT, I dont get the luxury of easily adding widgets (or gadgets) to my blog just by clicking "add gadget". So, after days of no blog widgets, I successfully googled how to manually add widgets into a css-based blog right into the html code. And tadah! Look! There's a chat box, a Twitter app and cool little blog trackers, yknow, just so I could keep up with all my readers :) p.s. If any of you would like to follow my footsteps and revert to the older version of the templates for your blog, it's quite easy. Just go to Customize then Edit HTML and lastly, click on Revert to Classic Template on the bottom. Trust me, it's way nicer! But, there's a catch. You'd have to redesign your blog from scratch, which is a drag. But fortunately, there's a way out of it, just find a Template Generator on Google somewhere, for a head start. My suggestion? This one I found Prathito using is pretty nice, the name's Psycho.
And last but not least, like all of you might have already noticed, I changed the blog's name to "EffBoy" just like I have predicted on my very first post! lol. Turns out I'm very self-predictable, nice. Now that the Blog is "EffBoy" and not "There's Something In My Head" anymore, expect yourselves to be up to date with all the WTFs I find all around Jakarta, and all the other places I may visit. You know, WTFs are the "Oh My EFFing God! What Were They Thinking?!" things that happen in daily life. Trust me, this city keeps a whole lotta WTFs hidden right under your nose. And I'll be sure to post some each week. There you go, the 411 on my Blog's change of looks. So wuddya guys think of it so far? Should I stop changing things up, or are there still some things on the layout you find annoying, irritating, or change-worthy? Just comment here, and tell me what u guys think. Comments are blogger's best friends, so keep em coming, whatever they might be :)

NOW! For the moment of truth! I have one last question to ask you guys. Is this blog BLUE or PURPLE ??? Coz I intended for the blog to look a certain color, but some of my friends have been saying it looked like a whole different color. I think it would be best not to mention my preference of color here, coz i think that would influence you guys's thoughts, so just gimme an honest opinion okay? I repeat, is this blog BLUE or PURPLE?

Oh, and here's a Before & After pic of the EffBoy's transition, just in case any of you were wondering...


So before I go, I'd like to keep you posted on some of the things that have been lingering in my head, itching to be written on this blog! First off, I've been meaning to write a post about something funny (or maybe more like idiotic, yeah I think idiotic fits better) I found one day while I was at Food Mart, Citos. Anxious to know what the idiocy is? Stay tuned! Second of all, I've always been fascinated with astronomical wonders and theories ever since I found out that the ancient Egyptians built the 3 Pyramids of Giza to exactly reflect the Asterism, or better known for it's "cool" name, Orion's Belt -and NO, I did not find that out from Transformers, I was an Ancient Egypt enthusiast as a kid, common knowledge like that I ate for breakfast- Which inspired me to write something concerning the doomsday prediction. Yknow, 2012. Solar flare, Polar shifts, Galactic Alignments, Flying Mountains, Oh goody goody :) I've done some research already, and trust me, it's gonna be out of this world! Get it? Out of this world? Yea whatever. Next, the scoop on the new freshmen kids in school! Yes peeps... New year, new class, new kids! The first-day-of-highschool drama! The happy kids, the proud parents, the tight shirts, and the not-so-spectacular orientation days of this academic year, all wrapped up in one pretty post. So to all my fellow SMAN8JKT student readers, keep your eyes peeled for interesting new sightings, whoohoo! Now, last on my list, food! Yes people, FOOD! Rather than posting pictures of what the hell I wear to every single itty bitty event in my life, I feel it is more fun to know what I eat. Eat Eat Eat (and it's not like I have a fascinating wardrobe either, so). The good, the bad, the cheapy nasties, and of course, the it's-so-good-i-think-i'll-order-another-one-s. So, prepare to see how a fat boy get fat peeps! And this is skinny-me dancing ghetto...

 Peace out!

p.s. I dont know why I've been so into African-American stereotypical culture lately, so don't ask :)

Under Construction
This, is a photo of Maria Shriver looking pretty.
This, is a photo of Maria Shriver, minus her pretty. Ain't she beautiful? Hold up, did I just spot a resemblance? Relative Alert!

Maybe Sam Raimi got Sylvia Ganush's name wrong. It should've been Sylvia Shriver. But hey, it does have that certain ring to it, huh? Sylvia Shriver. Well then what about Maria Ganush? I think "she" would look somewhat like this.

Hey wait, this gives me an idea! *cue light bulb*

HERE!

A pic of Maria Ganush sporting dreadlocks, playing a cameo role on Michael Jackson's Thriller

Ha, ha, ha -_-" ...Okay, okay, so that one just went a bit too far out of the valley. I get it.

Okay now on to more important business. Like all blogs, this blog you're reading starts out with no makeup. Therefore, it's pretty much lookin' butt ugly and boring. So obviously, my blog needs some makeup, like Maria Shriver needs Botox up there. So, I guess you won't be seeing me posting new things for a while, cause I'll be busy trying to make this blog look pretty. So I hereby officially announce this blog Under Construction till further notice. Now, to end my post this time, I feel it is proper to present to you a gif of me doing the actual construction work. So here's to you my readers



...Feel the burn!

p.s. Maria Shriver is Arnold Schwarzenegger's wife. Yknow, just in case any of you were wondering, and couldn't bare to Google her name even till the end of the post. See, I did the hard work for you guys. Don't you guys just love me?

Oh, here they are. Say hi to the Governator!

Astalavista :)

Here Goes Nothing
Bloggerverse, salutations! *cue fireworks*


I hereby welcome you to disney land my blog. A blog about me, my life and what I have to say about whatever I think might interest all you people of the world.

So ... (sudden loss of words)

Obviously you can tell I'm not used to this type of media yet, lol. I'm familiar with the likes of Twitter & Facebook, but Blogging is still very foreign. I've read, but not written. Therefore I entitle this post "Here Goes Nothing". So, here goes nothing!

Since this is my first post, I assume you guys expect me to write lines and lines of never ending stories of me, myself and I. Me mentioning things like my age, where I live, what I like, what I don't like, why i do this and why the hell I do that. But no, I don't wanna bore you with such cliches. As this blog is a form of self expression, I expect you guys to know me through my writing, what I post and the overall look and feel of this site of mine, including this very first post you are reading this very second. So enjoy me :P


Cheerio! :P

p.s. I wrote this entry while listening to Lady Gaga. One of my not so guilty pleasures of the moment, and I am sure I will regret mentioning this in the future, but oh well. And just for the record, the original name of this blog is "There's Something In My Head". I just felt like telling you guys this, in case I ever decide to change it. I'm obsessed with change, I like changing things up a bit.

And now! To top off today's post, I present to you, a never before seen clip out of America's Next Top Model: Revenge of the Retired


Whoa, Tyra! That's just so ...




Bye :)
