This work is scanned, but the original is more beautiful... I was thinking of taking photos of it but is certainly a whole new set of skill..
ANYWAY,
Haven't write about it, So I guess I will share my other INTENSE interest...

to Napoleon Bonaparte!! ( I know i'm weird like that XD)
I even started buying books about him..
Read Louise Marchand's diary and Betsy Balcombe's Diary...
( and still of books, from his private doctors, to his grand marshal, etc)
he was so charming!!.
I keep imagining if he was alive in today's world...
( OK, this is desperation on a new level)
many people had very bad idea about him ( especially my Indonesian friend...)
the moment they heard Napoleon, they think of a man that crown himself emperor 'for life',
well for 18th century, that is pretty normal... NO, that's normal!!
That he killed a lot of people, or that, he is equal to Nazi...
So I have to explain it all over, before they get interested and pick the book themselves XD
And, to be honest, he is charming, smart and good looking ( I mean it!)
His life, I think is very tragic... and he was widely misunderstood by the world...
Everytime I think about him, it makes me sad, the tragic ends he faced, loosing everything, including the image that he very much cared about.

Today I was presenting my idea of making a book in Napoleonic era theme( huge Napoleon fans!!)
but then decided to make the princess wearing Marie Antoinette's dress, but then I believe it has to be consistent, so I will change it back... so everything has to be Napoleonic,
In fact, now that I think about it, who loved Napoleon wouldn't like Marie Antoinette... unless you like him for his look ( like me XD)
One of the girl says, " well, you say it was Napoleonic, did you even do research?"
WOW, this is personal !!!!
BWAHAHAHAHA, what she say is true though, Napoleonic era are waaay different from the Bourbons...
