29/September/2017 | Advertorial, Classic Advertorial Collection

 

Hello!!! I m back!! Very very proud to present You guys a new concept advertorial
that I shot this early this month, it took me quite a while to finish the post-
production, preparation for this shoot and I can tell you this, this set of pictures
wasn’t as easy breezy to shoot as it looks! Shall explain to you guys in details
later in the post!

This time I teamed up with SK Jewellery, I love that SK Jewellery 
 constantly comes up with very Creative and innovative jewellery line and designs!

All the charms are made from 999 Pure Gold at SK Jewellery, something that last forever,
something special that you could add into your personal collection, a good luck charm that
stay with you forever. So tell a unique story of yourself with your own personal selection
of the charms.

 

Today I m showcasing you guys
THE SK JEWELLERY 999 PURE GOLD CHARMS COLLECTION:

The SK Jewellery charms latest addition now includes coloured enamel charms!! They are
extremely cute and Captivating, they give your arm candies even more attitude!!! These
little charms are Super cute and very carefully crafted!

Instead of being who I am, selection for the charms from SK Jewellery’s 999 Pure Gold 
Charms Collection, I picked the charms that fulfil my dreams, I always wanted to be a little
explorer, a little voyager, a boy who travel to places and see the world, even it was kinda
a bit too unrealistic to me when I was younger, as I was quite shy, a very very typical
Taurus, who hate to step out of own comfort zone, but this set of the charms, that I picked,
remind myself of these little dreams I have.

♥♥

I am a strong believer in The Secret, the law of attraction, in the book, it
says You should always keep something with you that keep you in positive spirit and remind
of you happy things, your dreams, your goals! With a positive vibe, a positive mindset
will always always bring better luck, positive things in life. Trust me on this.
The secret works.

These littles charms are symbols of yourself and anything that actually represents you,
or remind you of who you are, or even who you wannabe, or reminder of things that make
you happy or keep dreaming.

\

I also personally selected and added my own name with the alphabet charms as well!
You could totally customise a arm candy that fits you perfectly!

The choo choo train charm, and the cute aeroplane charm reminds me to travel when sometimes
it doesn’t make feel very comfortable being in a foreign land that doesn’t really speak my
language, don’t be shy, go to places and see things, explore the world.

The fairytale collection comes in 999 Pure Gold, with a selection of new arrivals available in coloured enamel!

So what’s your story…?

 

The petite ladybug charm, reminds me to keep in touch with nature. Being in touch with the
nature is a huge part of the Travelling, that actually makes me uncomfortable sometimes.
Being a city boy, mountains, jungles or safari, kinda scares me, but how do I see the world
if I don’t go places like these? Therefore, I hope this petite ladybug charm keep encourage
me to be more adventurous!

If you see carefully there’s also a Twinkle star charm, this reminds me to dream and keep
making wishes, Because if I ever travel back in time and tell the 18 year old yutaki, that
I will travel to do much places and see the world, the old me, wouldn’t believe it and but
to envy, I should keep on dreaming, so much of my dreams and goals came true even thought
It took a while…. but I got here.

Oh my god. One of the most tough shoot I did in a Long Long Long time, you guys have
no deal how much thrones pricked me!!! I got pricked ALL OVER MY BODY for this shoot.
Legs, arms, hands and even my back, no joke, even on my ass. LOL.

I was literally in a battlefield with the cactus. Even when I was SO CAREFULLY AND
SLOWLY moving in between the cactus, I still got stung so bad. Lol.

I Guess this unglamorous and tough part of the shoot you guys don’t ever get to see,
butttttttt after looking at this set of editorial, I could proudly tell myself, the
effort was all worth it. HA!

I am very very proud of this set and they turned out exactly the way I wanted it to be!
ALL WORTH IT!

If you follow me Long enough, you’ll rmb I used add a dedication to all concept online
mini photobooks, i Guess in time, I got too busy, and stop adding these details to my
works, but this blog post, it is kinda special to me, kinda like a rainbow post after
a thunder storm, thou it might not even be over yet, but I’ve seen so much rainbows
from hundreds of you already, it really melts my heart, this photo post is for you guys,
may you too find that courage to travel the distance to see the greener side.

A little adventure killed nobody.

Thank You.

24/September/2017 | Confession of yutakis

With the recent accusation I’ve kept silent as I’m more grown up compared to the old yutakis who was extremely vocal (if you follow me Long enough! 😂). After confiding with my friends @bongqiuqiu @yankaykay @mykxii @thatericboy, I feel I owe my Long term followers an explanation. 

Today’s Instagram has a lot of the users finding ways to grow, whether as a influencer or not. Many are struggling, I too, am one of them.

Organically u can up your game on photos, content, be more interesting, or know more Friends.

There’s also gray-er ways, like following more people get more exposure, like more photos on explore pic to get noticed and grow on your digits. Comment more and make more online friends, like its name, social media, u need to socialise.

Some host giveaways, use relevant attractive materials/ gadgets to do giveaways, to grow.

Also with the new prompt function on Instagram, u can pay for more exposure and more likelihood of increasing your numbers, impressions, likes, I paid at times, for exposure on giveaways or sponsored posts, to get more people to join. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with paying for some posts to be “promoted”, it’s like a free value-add to my clients or in some ways a self-promotion tool. Instagram earns from it but if it’s so unethical or not organic, I don’t think they will allow this function? People can see it’s promoted post after all right? 

I personally did a lot giveaways, through the years, mostly skin care, kpop albums, photobook, make up, concert tickets and even gadgets like cameras, I feel I grow the most from such giveaways, I could increase a few hundreds, to even 1k+ per day.

In recent years, while I m losing interest in blogging and being very inactive (I only uploaded 100+ posts in 2016), even lower in 2017. I get alot of people unfollowing, that’s the reason why I host a giveaway every 2-3 weeks. My following typically spikes everytime I post one, and I get tons of unfollows whenever I announce the winner(S) , normally it’s less than 5 winners, and I get 100-600 participants per giveaway.

One of the most significant jumps I had was back then I entered the Indonesian market with AFA, butler cafe, but I only attended one year. That one event day I grew 1-2k. Also once was featured on Indonesian fun fact account @faktanyagoogle, and within that 2 days I jumped 2k followers. These are the most significant jumps I remember.

My figures if you look carefully on the socialblade chart, it varies, it went up and down in between the figure of 60k to 65k followers in between that line, nothing too dramatic, it’s pretty unfair to compare me to people who have so much more followers and much more significant jumps.

For the past 2 years, I was handling depression, as well some internal dramas with my friends, family and building a new relationship. I stopped updating as regularly, and tbh, I understand why people started unfollowing me massively due to the lack of updates and constant quality content.

I m sorry that I wasn’t as hardworking as I once was, and I resort to using constant giveaways to gain followers, but I do have my own personal struggles that I no longer share it online. But I hope you guys could see that I still put in my 100% whenever I update a blog post. Sometimes it takes weeks of preparation, all that is hard work and effort that can’t be bought, and I take pride in them.

I’ve been blogging for 10 years, and some followers followed me for that long. I hope you guys can see my effort in other aspects, other than my figures on a graph, i hope I can still create more good content in future for you guys too. As for right now, my life is in a very good place, much better than how I used to be in 2015-early 2016!!

I rarely open up these days, but I hope you guys would stand by me, at times like this, and vouch for my hard work over the past 10 years. If you have stood by me all this while, I really thank you. 

Thank you so much for keeping good faith in me!

Fin, 

with love.
