Kerstmist met Familie (van mijn oma) en Volgende Verhaal van Mijn Schripsie

2012-01-03T23:12:00.004+07:00

Happy holidays! It's 2012 now! So many things happened, cerita tentang skripsi masih berlanjut, gosip keluarga, dan obsesi gue bikin website tentang stamboom keluarga gue. Sekarang gw lagi di ruang makan, rencananya mau ngoding nambahin beberapa requirements dari kantor kemaren, eh tapi ngecek last.fm, ada link ke blog, jadi tergugah buat nulis.

Jadi ceritanya tanggal 30 kmrn, kita dateng lagi ke kantor, soalnya program (yang gw bikin) mau dipresentasiin kepada karyawan. Yah, sebagai pembukaan gitu loh. Perkenalan a.k.a launching. Dibikin rapat besar gituh. Jadi sebelumnya proyek finalnya udah dikasih ke Mr. Hendrique selaku staff IT di sana. Terus di-hosting sama dia. Et voila! Ada beberapa bug ternyata. Dia sms suruh gw fix, gw bilang ini masalah datanya nih, ente udah pake yang baru ya? Dia trs bilang kalo masalah database mah besok aje ye, ogud udah di rumah. Katanya. Yaudah besoknya pagi jam 10 gw dateng minta data baru nih.Udah dikasih data-data yang baru. Tapi tetep bug. Gw tanya lagi ini tetep bug nih, kodingan gw ada yg diubah ga? Dia bilang ga. Eh trs dia sadar katanya tabel karyawannya baru. swt. Dikasih lah gue tabel REAL msKaryawan yang bermega-mega itu sampe import SQL di laptop gw gak bisa. Waktu semakin dekat untuk presentasi jam 1330 akhirnya karena failed terus, gw minta recordnya dalam satu biro aja. Baru deh bisa import. BARU DEH BISA DIBENERIN. Udah gitu sambil gw benerin diajak lah ngobrol masalah programmnya sama si Hendrique, ya kagak jadi2. Belom kepotong lunch. Menjelang half over twee baru deh si Misyu kelimpungan, gw jg jadi panik dan ada satu bug yang blm ada penyelesaiannya (yang ternyata... karena kebodohan gue sendiri) jadi gw bilang sama dia kalo ntr di demoin pake yang 'aman' aja. Il a parle d'accord.

Terus kita dateng ke ruang rapat, yang tidak seperti biasanya. INI YANG HADIR BANYAK BANGET!!! Juga di situ disebutkan beberapa nama yang gak asing di tabel msKaryawan. Jadi teka teki selama ini terjawab. Oooh ini yang namanya ini, ooh ini yg judes namanya ini, ih dia kan jabatannya rendah, kok sombong sih dan lainnya. Akhirnya tiba saatnya program untuk didemonstrasikan. Awalnya sih oke sampe akhirnya Miss Yuni yang demoin tidak menggunakan mode 'aman' gw udah mulai panik. Gw kasih tau ke Mr. Hendrique kalo yang Ms. Yuni operasikan bakalan gagal eh tetep loh Ms Yuni pake. JEGERRRRR gue berasa ditelanjangin. watashi no chin chin wa okii desu , jadi ga masalah. Bukan itu juga masalahnya sih, ya tapi harga diriku dipertaruhkan. Udah lah terbuka semuanya kalo programku masih ada bug. Hiks. Akhirnya setelah rapat Mr. Hendrique beri beberapa saran dan tambahan fitur. Gue meng-OK-an. Sampe rumah gw periksa tuh bug apa yang tadi terjadi. Ternyata.....

Cuma kurang tanda kutip.

Iya itu gue udah tau. Di salah satu function() doang. Tapi ternyata di function() lain yang lain juga kurang kutipnya. OMG cuma kurang kutip. Gw bisa benerin kurang dari 1min dan bisa dipresentasikan dengan lancar, dan gak jadi pikiran selama gue pulang ke rumah. Huh.

Tanggal 31 pagi ade tiri oma gw dateng dari SBY, sama anaknya. Mereka nginep di rumah gue. Mijn moeder was being so nice to them. Kita makan dalem satu meja gitu (biasanya gak pernah). Sebelumnya gw juga beberes sih, kamar mandi dan kamar gue, karena mereka bakalan pake itu kan. Banyak cerita dari mereka, tentang keluarga gue yang lain. Dari hubungannya Bob Tutupoly ke keluarga gue sampe bokapnya oma gue yang ternyata nikahin cewe yang seumuran oma gue yang notabene ibunya si ade tiri oma gw ini. Mijn honden ook zijn nice aan ze. Pas mereka udah pulang gw iseng-iseng buka Visio 2010 terus bikin stamboom. Udah jadi sih, tapi agak kurang detail aja. Abis cuma modal ingetan dari cerita sama stalk facebook.

Tahun baruan juga oke lah, gue ngerayain sendiri di balkon rumah ngeliatin fireworks, firecrackers di langit. Seru banget!!! Tapi gak ada yang bisa diajak ngomong, jadilah gw ngomong dan ngomentarin sendiri. Emang gw udah didesain buat hidup sendiri kali ya. Ahahaha... Pokonya thanks banget deh orang-orang daerah Bintaro dan sekitarnya yang udah beli kembang api/petasan dll terus dinyalain. Keren2 banget en rame!! Jadi gue yang gak beli pun bisa menikmatinya :P

Omong-omong soal stamboom, while working on Visio tadi gw kepikiran pelajaran Struktur Data yang gw dapet pas freshman year. Gw pengen bikin website tentang stamboom keluarga gue deh. Ada waktu itu gw liat punya saudara gw di belanda dia bikin kayak gini. Tapi gw pengen bikin beda. Ada sih yang sign up dan create free/paid gitu. Hmm next iseng project lah ntar abis skripsi.

Selamat tahun baru!

Christmas Eve 2011 + Honor Pertamaku dari Keringatku Sendiri

2011-12-24T23:24:00.006+07:00

It's Christmas Eve... Hari ini gue bangun pagi, dengan perasaan was-was. Gak tau kenapa, tiap pagi akhir2 ini gw bangun dengan perasaan was-was. "Hoe laat is het??", "Heb ik vandaag een afspraak?", "Hoe is mijn memoir?", "Heb ik huiswerken?" Selalu deh. Padahal hari ini udah Christmas Eve, udah libur, udah gak ada kerjaan lagi. Aside dari ngomongin Christmas Eve, gw mau inform sesuatu dulu. Berhubungan dengan rasa was-was yang selalu gw rasakan tiap pagi.

Jadi sebenernya gue (bukan gue sih, tapi een van mijn thesis member) udah bikin janji utk presentasi di tempat kita skripsi tentang sejauh apa yang udah kita bikin mengenai requirements mereka. Presentasi ini udah dijadwalkan sejak lama sebenarnya, dari kepergian gue ke Singapura waktu itu. Lo bayangin aja, sebenernya gw ke SG dengan beban ngoding yang belom selse dan persiapan sejuta alasan knp belom selse. Dan di SG gw dapet sms dari Derby kalo ternyata presentasi DIUNDUR due to para tetinggi di sana baru pada pulang dari Bali. Capek katanya. Gue yang lagi lunch saat itu langsung berasa ada paduan suara malaikat di sekitar gue. Angelic voice gitu deh, kayak lagu 'Angel'nya Flight of the Concords.

Pengunduran kedua adalah, sekitar 2 minggu atau seminggu yang lalu gw lupa, pas gw lagi bete-betenya karena dicuekin oleh my thesis group, besoknya Derby (lagi) texted me kalo diundur karena Bos Besar lagi ada di AU. Gue yang lagi bete saat itu jadi lebih cingsung sih, dan bisa nyelsein beberapa kodingan dengan sempurna karena ku kerjakan dari hati. Gak tau sih pokonya puncaknya pas gw pergi ke Xing Ba Ke di PIM di situ gw bisa ngoding dengan khidmat deh. Hasilnya juga OK.

Nah jadi Kamis kemaren gw dateng nih ke kantor, bistu presentasi. Gw ceritain aja deh kronologisnya biar gw kalo baca lagi bisa inget dan ketawa2 sendiri. Dateng nih kita jam 1 ke sana, terus katanya biar loginnya ada feel-nya, orang IT di sana Monsieur Hendrique bilang nous avons besoin de trois portables, yaudah gw kasih lah pinjem satu mini laptop gue, sama Toshiba Portege nya Derby. Si Devi gak mau kasih pinjem katanya Firefoxnya ada masalah. Terus ya, keren bgt deh. Si Misyu Hendrique itu kan anak jarkom gitu, dia bisa jadiin laptop si Derby jadi server di mana database dan program kita ada di sana. Terus disambung pake wi-fi. Terus yaudah pas udah nyambung semua asik lah mereka berdua les filles ngutak atik program mereka. Gua? Duduk aja kelaperan. Bos besar dateng dan memulai la reunion. Les filles ont demande moi pour open the presentation. Udah berdiri nih gw siap mengucapkan kata2 sambutan eh yah terus Bos Besar interrupt en nyuruh Mr. Hendrique buat buka presentasinya karena doi orang IT di situ. Yaudh oke gw duduk en les filles cekikikan. Gue sih bodo amat.

Presentasi dimulai dengan programme de les filles, berjalan oke dan biasalah ada interupsi2 kecil. Terus pas bagian gue yah, karena tuh sistem emang baru dan blm pernah dijalanin dan masih angan2, kena banjir lah gw dengan pertanyaan2 yang bukan teknis, tapi tentang sistem tersebut. Gimana pendapat gue lah, terus alat ukur apa yang dapat digunakan agar penggunaan aplikasi tetap objektif, terus tentang masalah kejujuran pegawai dalam penggunaan, siapa yang akan memantau. LAH GUE MANA TAU, SITU KAN BOS KENAPA NANYA OGUD??? Gila di situ tuh perasaan gue, gue lagi di kerjain abis-abisan. Bayangin gw kerjain ini aplikasi sendirian, dari otak sendiri, gak ada temen diskusi, gak ada temen yg support, gak ada yg bantu ngoding T_T terus gw hadapin ini rentetan pertanyaan sendirian?? Gue udah mau nangis saat itu, mata gw udah berkaca-kaca *anjingg lebay banget gue* Dengerin si Bos Besar ngomong aja gue bisa capek sediri loh. Seriusan. Capek. Capek buat maksa utk tetep fokus dengerin dia ngomong. Sebenernya gue udah nangkep maksud dari omongan dia, terus gw mau jelasin ulang sekalian kasih masukan dari gue dan terus aja gw di salah2in, padahal nanti ya di conclusion itu dia lah maksud yang ingin gw sampaikan. Jadi intinya adalah: The conlusion is also my suggestion. Saat itu gw sampe mikir gue udah gak ngerti lagi bahasa formal Indonesia dan lebih baik pliss si Bos Besar ngomong informal Indonesia sama gue. Di punggung gw udah berasa ada batu besar yang siap menimpa gue. Omongan Bos Besar mengarah ke 'alur sistem yang lain' yang kedengarannya kok berbeda dengan yang udah gue buat. MASA GW HARUS BUAT ULANG?

Gw inget jam Casio calculator gw udah beep 2x, brati udah lewat 2 jam, udah jam 4 juga kayaknya waktunya para karyawan buat pulang. Akhirnya conclusion dibacakan oleh Monsieur Hendrique, gue lega. Dan yang bikin hen gao xing dan lebih lega lagi, program kita dipuji sama Bos Besar, katanya bagus udah lebih lah buat anak bachelor degree kayak kita2 ini. Ihh seneng deh. Karyawan yg lain jg responnya positif. Ih, udah berasa sidang skripsi yah kalo gitu. Abis itu ada satu tetinggi di situ bilang ke kita jangan pada pulang dulu. Eh tiba2, Monsieur Hendrique dateng bawa cek $50, buat per orang. Katanya sebagai ongkos udah 'kerja' di situ. OMG OMD gila gw ngerasa bangga banget sama diri gue sendiri, dan sama anggota group thesis gue. Gila woy kita dibayar dari hasil keringet kita sendiri woyyyyyyyy! Ihh seneng! Meski ga sebrapa tapi seneng aja. Gila aja ga nyangka aja dapet duit. Terus Monsieur bilang jangan lupa saran-saran penyempurnaan dikerjain, en submitted avant Dec 30. Kita oke2 aja sih. Masih tenggelam dengan dapet honor tadi. Nyampe rumah gw langsung cerita ke Mami. Ihh seneng deh bisa bikin bangga orangtua.

Nah makanya itu seharusnya pagi ini gw gak usah bangun pagi dengan was-was, orang udah presentasi dan approved. Mungkin karena kebiasaan bangun dengan rasa was-was kali ya haha. Hari ini gw abisin cuma nonton CTFxC vlogs sama ke gereja. Kan Christmas Eve. Ketemu lagi sama temen-temen katekisasi ih senangnya. Ketemu sama si Gabby udah kerja doi. Udah sekitar 3 bulan deh kayaknya gw gak ke gereja yg satu ini, karena angkotnya susah jadi gw biasa ke gereja deket rumah aja. Pas tadi ke sana ihh udah beda banget ya, padahal cuma 3 atau 4 bulan gt gw tinggalin. Terus gw ngerasa kok jemaatnya jadi beda, muncul muka-muka baru. Kangen juga sih. Ada drama gitu juga tadi. Dan kemudian pikiran gue melayang ke tahun 1999/2000...

Saat itu gw masih sekolah minggu dan gereja di Sektor IX baru buka. Gw suka bergereja di situ karena bagus, gede, gak sumpek. Terus dulu gw inget banget gue yang pemalu gak mau ikutan paduan suara buat natal. Nyokap maksa ampe nganterin gw latian paduan suara Sekolah Minggu di rumah tante Rita tiap sore. Gw ngerasa gak rugi sekarang. Gw pernah tampil di gereja, eksis, punya banyak temen, ada pengalaman. Terus selain itu seinget gw karena padus nya mau dipadukan dengan drama jadilah gw ikutan drama juga. Meski cuma jadi domba tapi seru banget. Soalnya kita joget-joget gitu dan rame-rame dombanya. Hahaha gw inget gw pake kostum unitard gitu warna putih, trs kaki gw di kasih lonceng jadi kalo jalan ada bunyinya. Lagu yang gw inget selama gw ikut operet Natal adalah:
- Away in the Manger
- The Little Drummer Boy
- Go Tell It on the Mountain
- Pujilah Dia (ini gw bawa lilin ke altar sambil nyanyi)
- Malam Nan Ajaib
dan lagu-lagu lain banyaaak banget karena kan itu acara operet gitu lagunya banyak banget. Seruu. Itu acara natal yang terbagus yang gak pernah gw lupain selama gue hidup. Makasih banget Mom udah maksa gue buat ikutan eksis di gereja. Kadang gitu deh, hal-hal baik dateng dari hal yang memberatkan, yang kita gak suka tetapi ada hal positif yang kita dapet dari situ.

13 -12 -2011 Is It Just a Countdown Or...

2011-12-13T22:13:00.004+07:00

Hari ini ya gak tau kenapa mood gue drop abis. Padahal gue udah bangun pagi dengan segar, had a nice ontbij, persiapan baju udh dari kmrn malem, trs tinggal berangkat deh kan naar het campus.

Gue gak tau apaan yg bikin gw ngedrop yg pasti kyknya sejak masuk auditorium cxar "ili" parolis unu la alian sen petis me unuigi. Mi sentis forlasita. Het is te gek, ni estas unu grupo, sed mi ne sentas aparteni al gxi. Gue rada-rada sedih sih, atau gue kecewa dengan mezelf. Gue ngerasa kalo gue have no partopreno, rasanya juga kalo ga ada gue ya tetep aja kok bakalan jalan semua.

Ditambah lagi selama pelajaran orang-orang depan blakang samping tuh brisik banget padahal topiknya tentang henpon gw pengen banget dengerin kan. I feel sorry buat dua orang di depan gue yang udah gw maki2 gara2 terlalu brisik. Beneran deh, you guys my friends no hard feeling ya tapi beneran gue terganggu banget sama kalian.

Then go the deh luncxo tempo, we join one table occupied by onze vrienden, actually they asked us if we want to join and then yes. Actually at that time gw lagi pengen banget sendiri atau cuma bertiga tapi yaudah deh kyknya "yang lain" juga mau join. Nah, yang diluar grupo have their own talk, en mia grupo ankaux, tapi GUE GAK DIAJAK PRATEN KAN, they seem very intense banget yaudh gue ngalah. Gue gak tau deh ah makin mumet banget terus ahirnya udah deh nih kita do our project in de bibli. Mood gw udah mulai gak bagus tapi gue pura-pura banget sok sok ngajak ngomong etc gila beneran ya fake something tuh rasanya membunuh dari dalem. Nambah lagi pas satu dari kita dateng karena telat ze heeft anders druk dulu met haar vrienden terus yaudah deh tuh mereka berdua ngomongin film dan spoiler aja, umm let me correct this, BANGET. Semacam kayak klimaks filmnya diceritain abis2an sama nih satu orang. I TOLD her before please jangan cerita dulu gw blm nonton tapi dia cerita aja gitu ke temen gw yang satu. Gue udah kesel banget, gue diem aja selama dia cerita.

Dia juga bilang, kalo ada kesulitan bilang aja ya, sini2 gw masih inget kok yang lo tulis kemaren, en then pas gue tanya dia cuma bilang "Ihhh emang kyk gini?" Salah nih, kyknya kmrn gak kyk gini" ANJING, terus mana penyelesaiannya dong, I need suggestions, bukan correction ga jelas kyk gini. Di situ gw udah mau meledak, gw benci banget sama mereka. Kalau mereka gak butuh gw bilang aja kek, gw tau elo pegang andil besar dalem proyek ini, tapi thats not the way you treat other member! Tapi ya klo gue inget lagi, bisa banget loh gue faking it nya, gue mau loh tetep pulang bareng dan ngobrol2 gitu. Ih.

Sampe stasiun, I fucked up. Again. Gue gak tau kalo jadwal kereta sore ternyata berubah karena gak ada kereta langsung, jadi mau sok2an kayak di Singapore, pake jalur warna warni gitu. Dan gw nunggu satu jam aja dulu. Saat itu mendung. Y mi corazon tambien. Y mis ojos. Gue mau nangissss my life totally fucked me. Sampe di stasiun tujuan juga ujan. Gue masukkin buku Echo dari tote bag ke JanSport Slacker gue, trs gue jalan sampe rumah sambil ujan-ujanan.

Sambil ujan-ujanan, gue ngomong. Sendiri. Sama diri gue. Gue mengutarakan kekesalan gue hari itu. Mixed juga bahasanya, jadi makin kayak orang gila. Gue emang mikir, ppl would think I'm crazy, but that's no problem. They don't know me, they shouldn't judge me. Mereka gak tau apa yang terjadi sama gue, mereka gak tau kenapa gue bisa melakukan hal itu. Jadi lebih baik mereka diam. Create before you critique, otherwise shutup. Everybody do this. Itu kalo kata temen gue. Agak ga nyambung tapi itu yang ada di otak gw pas nulis maksud gue tadi.

Sekarang gue udah agak tenang, karena abis ujan-ujanan sambil ngomong sendiri tadi jiwa gue udah agak tenang. Terus gue udah tidur cukup sekitar 3 jam. Nah sekarang gw denger suara motor tandanya kaka gw dateng. Dan dia akan merokok. Merokok bisa membuat mood gw drop lagi. OMG oh Dios ayuda me...

Annually Posted?

2011-12-05T00:37:00.004+07:00

If I look through my blog, bisa dilihat bahwa currently gw ngepost cuma setahun sekali. Last post 2010, dan bawahnya lagi 2009.

Sekarang gw lagi sibuk skripsi/memoir/thesis dimana kuharus membuat program, diimplementasikan, (dapet royalti :P I hope so), dan menuliskan laporannya. Gracias a Dios, at Binus University kita bisa make a group for doing a thesis. Jadilah kami bertiga, WiNyBy mengerjakan proyek E-Office di sebuah perusahaan milik pemerintah di Jakarta. Udah agak lama sih sebenernya, nous avons faire notre stage la, pour 6 mois, sampe sekarang akhirnya lanjut skripsi.

Puji Tuhan deh semua lancar. Sampe sekarang sih masih tahap coding, dan penulisan bab 4. Yang kurang adalah proses implementasi dan feedback from the users untuk perbaikan. Jadi kata pembimbing kami, paling ga kalian sudah melewati semua tahapan pengembangan aplikasi. Itu yang dia mau.

Januari 28 2012 harus udah kumpul. Wish us luck ya guys. Love you <3

新加坡是乐趣!! 和不足够 -_-

2011-12-04T23:53:00.004+07:00

So vorige week, ging ik met mijn broer naar Xin Jia Po. Sounds wierd? It's Singapore in Chinese! lol. Ya, why do I write some Chinese here, in this post? Because OMG I want to learn Chinese, and speak it sooo badddd. Almost everyone in SG speaks Chinese. I took 2-year Chinese class in high school but it wasn't enough. Ok genoeg met deze taal probleem, let's jump to my story in SG.

SG is my first country ever to visit. The first stamp I got in mi pasaporte. Udah sih bikin pasport last year buat pergi ke 中国 tapi apa daya, penyakit datang dan menyebabkan kegagalan :-(

It gets better laa, gue juga gak yakin sih pas mau ke Hainan, soalnya yg ikut jg cuma dikit, takutnya dibatalin gitu yaudah kan ya gapapa sih ga begitu sakit hati.

So, my visit to SG actually adalah sebuah keburu-buruan dari mon frere yang mau pergi ke sana tapi gak mau sendirian. Jadilah dia interrogates gue nanya2 kapan gue vrij, gue bilang mungkin pas masa2 ujian en then he got the tickets booked. Voila, jadilah gue ke SG dengan durasi cuma 2 hari. Pour moi sih ya, it wasn't enough since gue hobi jalan kaki mengitari kota dan melihat-lihat pemandangan luar. Bosan buat gue adalah di mana gue udah sampe hafal jalan2nya dan nothing to do there.

Jadi deh gue bawa kartu EZ Link nyokap, sama satu tiket ijo buat ditukerin (lumayan S$1 buat es potong) and we took taxi to de aeropuerto. Kita sengaja ambil penerbangan pagi karena kan kami cuma semalam di sana, jadi supaya bisa abisin waktu aja di sana dari pagi. Abis itu sampe, print boarding pass untuk pulang karena kebodohan kaka gue yg salah kasih alamat e-mail. Fortunately, he ticked the checkbox "Send the 2D barcode too to my phone" so we can have them printed in the airport. Fiuwh.

Seinget gue the captain bilang perjalanan selama 1jam 57 minuten dan tibalah gue di sebuah area yang beda jauh ya sama ID, ini bersiiiiiiiihhhhhhhhhhh banget and so tidy. Seriusan deh emang sih agak kampung tapi ini mijn eeste tijd buiten ID zijn, gila keren yaa. Air kerannya *mostly everwhere drinkable. Bistu kita ke Metro, buat keluar dari bandara. Beliin tiket buat kaka gue. Dapet deh EZ Link orange S$12. Ada kejadian bodoh sebelum kita beli tu kartu. Kita cari machinenya, ada nih ketemu. Pertama gw mau reload kartu, tapi yang gw bingung adalah "HOW DO I USE THIS FRICKEN MACHINE????" Cuma ada tempat pindai kartu sama masukin duit doang. Lah gimana operatenya dong? Karena di belakang banyak bgt orang ngantri, jadilah gw mundur dan ngeliatin gimana cara make tuh mesin. Ternyata adalah, UI (user interface)nya ada di pojok kiri bawah. Busettttttt mana gw liat. And also, lampunya juga ga terang gt di layar UInya yg makin bikin gw mikir tihs machine doesn't work. Setelah bisa reload kartu, belilah kaka gw sebuah tiket Changi-Cityhall yang mana kemudian kita akan beli EZ Link. What a waste!!

Selamat dari bandara, kita ke Merlion dengan arah yang salah. Tapi untungnya, dengan arah yang salah itu gue jadi bisa ngeliat bangunan2 tua jaman Inggris dulu, dan ketemu juga patungnya Oom Raffles lagi lipet tangan. Gue juga selamat gara2 OVI Maps in my Nokia 5800, phew, and peta gretongan pastinya yg ada di bandara.

Seinget gue nih ya, pertama tuh kita Cityhall, terus wisata sejarah Singapour, Merlion/One Fullerton, Esplanade, Cai Fu Pen Quan (Fountain of Wealth), Bras Basah, Orchard, Plaza 313 (kalo ga salah namanya itu, lupa pokonya angka), Hotel 81 Bencoolen. Plasa 313 itu, kita ke sana gara2 kaka gue pegel gue ajak jalan dari Merlion ke Orchard buat cuci mata sekalian cari hotel. Akhirnya kita ke sana ke Food Republic buat makan. Gila ya biarpun listening gue pas tes TOEFL kemaren lumayan, gue agak susah menerjemahkan Inggris mereka seriusan deh. Jadi aga gak enak gw selalu mengulang kata 'sorry' atau 'pardon'. Abis ketemu hotel kaka gue tepar and gw lanjut jalan melihat Orchard di malam hari. Aslinya sih malem itu gw ajak kaka gw ntn Sound of the Sea tapi dia tepar yaudah lah ya ntar2 aja gw ke sana lagi.

Besoknya kita abisin waktu sesuai buku 'Your Essential Singapore Guide' yang dapet gratis di Bandara. Seinget gue sih rute kita Orchard (lagi) - Fivo City - Sentosa - China Town - Little India - Bugis dan yang terakhir.... Changi pastinya. It was fun and tired. Masih ada sekitar SGD 10 di EZ Link gue, I promised mezelf to go back there again.

Deby dan Dewi gw kasih cokelat wafer karena I was away from the thesis-thing and some fridge magnets. *buatNyogok :P

Hello everyone,

Akhirnya gue kembali lagi datang ke blog ini. Gak tau kenapa gue cuma pengen cerita. Hari ini gue galau banget. Gatau kenapa. Kalo gue rasa sih ya kurang ada komunikasi. Kalian pernah main The Sims ga? Tau kan ada indikator socialnya. Nah kayaknya hari ini punya gue warnanya merah deh. Biarpun hygiene dan energy ijo tapi tetep aja satu yg merah bikin hari ini galau.

Gatau kenapa indikator 'social' gue mendadak merah terus. Kalo gak di tengah yang abis ampe pojok. Selalu begini tiap liburan. Ini kenapa gue benciiiiiiii banget yang namanya libur. Gue suka gue dapet kegiatan yang bikin gue sibuk. Gimana pun caranya gue gak dapet free time. idk maybe it slowly kills me tapi gue bener2 suka yg kyk gitu. Social gue nambah terus. Gue inget dimana setengah dari sophomore year gue, gue dapet projek berabrek abrek dan gue mati-matian ngerjainnya. Sampe pulang malem dari kampus, ngerjain tugas through messenger, sibuk nanya2 orang yang jago tentang programming, bergantung sama orang lain (kalo proyeknya yang gue ga suka xP) .

Gue dapet libur sekitar 2 bulan. Gue udah habisin 19 hari dengan laptop tercinta. CTFxC, YouTube, VidCon, international friends on Twitter, etc. Tapi semua itu ga memulihkan indikator social gue. Itu semua cuma gimana mereka hadir bersama gue secara virtual; dimana gue ga bisa berinteraksi sama sekali dengan mereka.

Gue ada punya acara bareng temen-temen nonton bareng last vendredo, gatau kenapa suasana ga sebaik yang gue harapkan. Mungkin gara2 udah lama gak ketemu. Gue jadi takut kalo ntr penjurusan bikin kita pecah. Will see lah...... I love you my friends.

Liburan

2009-07-10T01:16:00.000+07:00

I've finished my final exam on Monday and now I have 2 months of vacation. I don't know what I have to do during vacation. My friend Paula planned going to Spain on July 23 (skip 2 days of her course) and going to Finland on Aug 1st. How lucky she is! My plans are reading some books (I bought 2 novel while exam) and maybe watching daily Vloggity Vlog. Just it. Checking Twitter, mail, student desk, as usual. Phew, nothing special. Friends, bring me out from house!!!!!!!

Hmm, two month. What I suppose to do? I dont want to sit and surf the internet. I want something different. My friend asked me to find a part time job. I want but where? I want to take holiday course but it was late. The registration has been closed since June and will be opened on August. I little bit regret, why didn't I sign up for mentoring to guide the new students at campus? Huaaaa. This Saturday my Mom will go to Bandung to attend a wedding reception. She has asked me about it and maybe I'll join her.

One year was passed. Now I'll start my second year in University. Semoga Berhasil.

Final Exam is Coming!

2009-06-20T12:41:00.001+07:00

Yay, finally I finished all of my tasks (essays, projects etc) and practical exam. So now I have 2 days (+Sunday so it'll be 3 days) before final exam period started. Oh ja, finally the desired laptop has been bought last week. I hope this one is the best for me and can help me for doing the uni. tasks. I still force to move my data from old computer to my new laptop. This laptop hasn't optical drive so I can't use DVD to move my data. Any suggestions? (with the cheaper and easiest way).

Do you still rememeber Jolie? Jolie is 5 months old now and his tooth one by one is changed. Couple days ago my brother found his fang on the floor. So I checked his mouth and ya that was bleeding. We didn't find other fangs. Maybe he swallowed it. Jolie keeps active and he likes chasing and biting bottle. I think because it makes sounds when it biting or chasing.

Maybe this is quick updates from me. I wish I'll start writing again in summer vacation. Wish me luck on final ekzameno. Adiaux!

Totally True. LOL. I don't really like peanut butter and jelly in a sandwich.

You Are a Club Sandwich

You are have a big personality. It's hard for anyone to ignore you!

What Kind of Sandwich Are You?

I want need a laptop! and Tivoli Audio

2009-05-11T22:01:00.006+07:00

Hello folks! Teh second semester has been going for almost three months. I just finished my mid-term last week and then my friends and I went to a theme park. My friends had fun there (and I so-so. Little bit bored). And so, I'll have my final exam on June. Wish me luck and get a better GPA! I don't know but I want join to mentorship for the coming-up junior on my campus. I do have the criteria except: "Experienced in organisation" LOL. But I'll try my best if I decide to join.

So the real life is going and I'm back to my class, sitting and listening to the lecturer. And now I need a laptop. My current laptop is now pwned by my brother and the PC is getting fubar. The hard-disk drive is almost full so it runs creepy. I did ask my parents to buy me a laptop but unfortunately the desired laptop haven't released in Indonesia yet. Gawd. Oh this is not fair. I have no idea why HP would feel the need to withhold shipping to Indonesia. It’s not like it takes any more effort for them to do so. I hope it comes out for Indonesia asap!

Oh ja, when I studied for my exam in library, I read an art magazine and I discovered this

I love the design! That is so classy! This one come from Tivoli Audio. Tivoli provides many kinds of radio such as internet radio, portable radio, desk radio etc with the classic design. As you can see on the picture that is a desk radio model one. And the model two comes with two speakers, model three comes with an alarm clock. I hope my parents will buy me this cool thing! LOL. Not like the notebook, this stuff have released in Indonesia. You can get in Senayan City, Emax Kemang etc.

Actually I also want an iPod Classic but I think my parents will think twice to buy me an iPod.

Saturday Night on Campus, New Dog and Uni. Tasks

2009-03-15T11:13:00.006+07:00

Uni tasks and projects will never stop to disturb my life until I graduate from University and hold the bachelor degree, which is in 3,5 years later. New class and new atmosphere, make me nervous and annoyed. I don't know. I have getting used with my old class with the friends. Although this is annoying, and take time for me to adapt with the environment, the lecturer, I take it positively. It teaches me to adapted with the new area, new community. I learn about communication which is the most complicated to me. If I found my 'comfort zone', I won't leave it. I'll stay there and interact with everyone in the comfort zone. That my minus side. I can't easily interact with new ppl and this one bring the disadvantage for me. Like on February 28.

In my campus there is a subject called 'Character Building'. This subject teaches us to be a good person beside our intelligence. To guide us to be a "Smart and Good" people in everywhere we live. So on this subject the lecturer gave the class a task. The task was watch the Art Performance on Feb 28 and write a report about the event. Because this is new class, and I haven't make closer friends, I feel annoyed and I don't know what to do. I don't have friends to accompany me to the event.
On that day I went to campus, but late because on the previous day I had sleepover. My friend had birthday party and on that night the rain fell for long time so I can't go home and the way to my home was flooded. My friends and I decided to sleepover and I went home at 10 in the next morning. I came home, took a shower and took a nap. I woke up at 1 and the event would start on 1. So I took the latest train and arrived on campus at 3. The auditorium door was closed. Grrrr... I had no idea and no friends beside me. That was gross and I cursed myself.

Fortunately I met my friends who had class on that day and we decided to watch Java Jazz on the Move. It started at 5 and ended at 9. Maliq and D'essentials performed well that night.
I went to the train station to go home and....... guess what... The last train has left!!!! OMG OMG.. So my friend and I took a taxi. Thanks God there was no traffic jam.

Another news is, I has a new dog!!!! A black Labrador Retriever. Honestly I don't like the color but his behaves make me love him. He named Jolie (the same name with the old one, I prefer Colbie but the other like Jolie).

He likes to bite everything. Legs, hands, fingers, boxes, pillow etc. He is so cute. But his color like camouflage for me. Especially when in the dark room. I can't see him.

Like what I've said about Uni tasks and projects, I have so many tasks now, especially for management class. I hate management. I don't know why. I'll try to like it. Because if we don't like one subject, we can't get it. I prefer science subjects.

Oh ja, I have been sick for one month. Hoah, it's cough. Hope me get rid from this early1!!!

Scores are REVEALED!

2009-02-26T22:26:00.005+07:00

OMFG!!! After 2 weeks doing the final exams, and one semester learning and socialising..... scores are revealed! w00t!

Today my friend told me that scores have been published on student desk. I didn't believe him because I thought scores will be published on Saturday or weekend. At home I signed in MSN and I saw personal message said that he disappointed with his Indonesian score. I asked him and scores have been released !!!! I went to my uni student desk and as you know if many people visit one web in one time it's soooo sucks! I was waiting so long! So while I waiting I told my friends that scores have been released.

I'm so happy to know my scores, and it was good. I'm glad. Not too glad because yeah, I shouldn't get satisfied because the future is waiting. I have to struggle to keep this GPA. In the other hand I'm so thanking God for this scores, this GPA. Thank you God, you are so good.

Kind of Juice

2009-02-25T20:27:00.001+07:00

You Are Orange Juice

You are an energetic, driven, motivated person.

You are always eager to get started, and you face each day with optimism.

You are bright and hopeful. You tend to see what's right as opposed to what's wrong.

You are generous and caring. You're always happy to give someone else a little energy boost!

What Kind of Juice Are You?

A motivated result. I hope that's a real result. I'm so pissed off right now.

Next Semester and a Book

2009-02-21T01:24:00.008+07:00

Hello there! I'm in vacation now. Days off after the final exams. Final exams went sooo complicated. Especially for Algorithm and Programming, that's ridiculous and soooo difficult! I'm so depressed and frustated after the exam was over. So did my friends. Attraversiamo...
So I'll start my new semester on Feb 23 with new class. This holiday is just for 10 days and I just went to my high school friend to meet some friends and spent time with internet and book. Just one book. The book is Eat Pray Love which is the book that Andri recommended me to read about one month ago. I took the book but I didn't read it seriously because my uni projects and tasks was waiting to do. So this vacation I took time to finish reading the book.

This book is about Liz Gilbert who was searching for happiness after she divorced. She went to Italy for food, India for meditations and pray and Indonesia to pay her promise to come back to a traditional healer but she also meet a Brazilian man and she loves him.
Read her stories in Italy makes me hungry because she tells the pizzas, pastas and other foods that she ate there. And her stories in India, I couldn't get it especially her thoughts and experiences. Stories in Bali I can get it. Awesome. I have never been there, Liz stories makes me want to go there.
This vacation also my cousins come to my house and stay here. Ramos brought a wi-fi modem so I can use this laptop to browsing at home. yay. Andri just heading to Papua this night. My brother, Ramos and I took him to the airport. He has a projects there. He said it's about Aids. Wish he's doing well there.
New semester, new classes, new friends, new schedules....... YAY.....
I'm still waiting for my scores and GPA. Wish all good.

Why was I Born?

2008-12-29T22:21:00.006+07:00

Hello folks! I'm in holiday right now and the weather is cold (yes!). Yesterday I went to YouTube. As usual, searching for hilarious videos. So I remembered that one of YouTubers making fun of Fred and I searched for the video. The video that I searched for was video that Fred loses his med but he has to do a blowjob to get it. But I found one video "Fred is Dead" belongs to ShaneDawsonTV. I watched the video and checked other ShaneDawsonTV's videos. I found one video titled "Why was I Born". The video uploaded on September. The story was good and touching. I laughed several times and at the end I was like wow it actually has a point. The characters in this video is one person except the little boy. I think schools should take this short-film as their material for counseling subject. And add the subtitle too.

(Please mute "Song of the Week" before play this video.)

Think the world wouldn't miss you if you were gone? Think again...

LIST OF SONGS FEATURED IN THIS VIDEO
*If It Kills Me - Jason Mraz

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE !!!

I spent my Christmas Eve with picked up my cousin who came from India. He actually should come on Dec 22 but his flight delayed. I went to airport and there is too many traffic jams! That was sick! I spent 4 hours ride from house-airport-house.

Today is Christmas and I went to Kerk at 8am. So my mother, brother and I arrived at home at 10. My brother disappointed with the bell and he pulled it from wall. My father came down and got angry with it. He said he can repair it but my brother said this is just a rusty-old-useless bell. My father got angry and talked about the bell all the way he went upstairs. I was upset with this situation. Just imagine, Christmas Morning, just came from church and my father was angry. With something shit insignificant. After that I went to my grandma's sister house. During the ride to her cribs my father played old christmas song that he always plays on Christmas. He bought the cd when I was a kid about 7.

So we arrived there, The house is long and full of books and souvenirs from many countries. If she were my grandma, Gosh I'll decide to live with her. Her home is cozy and classic. She served Macaroni Schotel and Italian Salad to my family. Grand told my mother that she just misguided and her account is empty. So someone had called her (my grand) and gave instructions to transfer some money to an account. She was curious about this but a maid there sure this is the good prize (Rp 16.000.000). My grand doesn't know how to use the ATM so the maid called the "liar" and asked about the instructions to use the ATM. The transactions were done for 2 times. So she came home and cried. My mother followed up this problem so she called the bank and bank couldn't do anything. They suggested my Mom to tell the Police. My mother, the maid there, my grandma and my brother went to police station to solve this problem. After 1 hour they came and told that the money couldn't get back. My grand whole heartedly gave her money and tries to forget it. I pitied her because she doesn't have any income and her money just gone with the wind. Andri said the liar will get carma. And we there agreed.

From Grand's house we went to my cousin house who was celebrating her birthday. We came and Andri shared his souvenir from India. My brother and I have got one first yesterday. I picked a wallet and my brother a bag. He bought it in Nepal and the entire souvenir is handmade. I ate dinner there and had conversations with my aunts, uncles and cousins.

Conclusion: I don't know but I think Christmas this year isn't as good as Christmas that I passed before. Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays!

Cracker Barrel Triangle

2008-12-20T12:54:00.004+07:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD !!

I couldn't greet him a happy birthday today because when I woke up he and my mom went to decorating a room for a Christmas Event. I woke up lately today because I watched "The Girl Next Door" yesterday. But not yesterday, the show started at 1am.

Two days ago I went to one of YouTuber’s blog and on his blog there is a link to his flickr photo gallery. I browsed his gallery and there is a photo titled “I did it” and have caption “At last, I have conquered the cracker barrel triangle. I have three witnesses as well. “ The photo is just like a triangle with one peg on it. I have no idea about the picture and I thought it just like archery game but I thought the board is too small for an archery game. I went to Google and search for “cracker barrel triangle” after I copied from the caption and pasted it into search box.

Google gave me answers. Cracker Barrel is a restaurant in United States that have been operating since 1969. And the restaurant provides a game on each table which is a wooden triangle with little plastic pegs on it and one empty hole. You have to jump over the pegs to remove them. The winner is who left one peg on it. Better if left on your starting point. This seems like intelligence test. According to Cracker Barrel Triangle, I remember other intelligence game called Peg Solitaire which has same rules with Cracker Barrel Triangle. In Indonesia we play it with marbles and a plastic board.

In search results, there is also a result about how to solve Cracker Barrel Triangle and a program written in C. I got the coding but it couldn’t compile with Borland C++. Here is the best solution:

Tweetstats and Wordle

2008-12-14T16:34:00.008+07:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY THERESIA SURIANI !! ---

Do you know twitter?

Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing?

Is that clear? I copied it from the website :) I have one account there and followed several people. If you have followed people on twitter whatever they have "tweeted" will appeared on your home on twitter. Couple days ago I went to twitter and ppl I have followed mostly tweet about 5 twitter words that they often use:

AericWinter Can you spell l-a-m-e? That's what my five most used tweet words have in common: twitter, status, aericwinter, good, day. AericWinter? WTF? 6:13 AM Dec 10th from web

SteAndKel My top 5 twitter words: lol, steven, omg, youtube, video http://tinyurl.com/5ts377 1:33 AM Dec 10th from web

whataboutadam The top 5 words I've tweeted: work, blogtv, going, video, want. http://tinyurl.com/59vaxo 12:36 AM Dec 10th from web

So I was curious about it and went to their tinyurl and I found one web called tweetstats, a web that collect words on your twitter after you insert your username. It was awesome! not only 5 words but also statistics about how many tweets on an month, tweet density, tweet cloud etc. If you have twitter you should discover tweetstats because it will gives you infos that you never imagine before. I tried it and it was awesome. Here is my stat: click here.
According to tweet cloud on tweetstats, I found wordle offering on tweet cloud page. I tried it and it gave cloud about your tweet. But on wordle, not only twitter but also your blog! And on wordle you can customize your own cloud and get codes for embed on your web. This is my blog wordle: (click on each pic to enlarge)

and my twitter:

Awesome! Try it! For free!

Time to Reminisce

2008-12-13T20:24:00.006+07:00

This is video about the orientation day in Binus University. I found this on BeeTube (Binusian's YouTube)

Smoked Beef Pissed Off

2008-12-13T18:00:00.013+07:00

Today I woke up at 11 (what a lazy boy!) with my brother's smoke. He didn't close the door after he borrowed glue, scissors etc. He smoked and the smoke came inside my room.. Not healthy. I hate that!!! Another smoke case: The neighbor about 10 meters from my house burned his trash and the smoke came into my living room. Shiit. Why did he/she has to burn the trash??? This year is 2008!! Just put in your garbage!

So I spent today with reading "Salem Falls" by Jodi Picoult. I don't know but mijn hart is soo terrible today. Maybe Paula will describe it "Pissed off". Ya, yesterday I asked her what pissed off means and today I do pissed off. Totally clear. My friend said if you pissed off, bored etc just eat chocolates because chocolates will make you happy. I have eaten chocolates but it didn't take any effects.

I just signed up last.fm and don't know how to use it. I though it just like iMeem but I think it has lil differences. Because on last.fm you listen music from internet radio (based on wikipedia cmiiw).

College tasks and projects are also waiting for me. Duh, I need spirit for do the tasks! I need motivations!

updated on Dec 14
I know how last.fm works! We can also listen musics from our computer instead of internet radio and connected to last.fm so tracks that we have listened are listed on last.fm. Just download the last.fm sofware. It works on iTunes, Winamp and Windows Media Player.

01PDT Session and Totally Revealed

2008-12-06T12:35:00.007+07:00

My friend Varyan have passion on photography. He loves to taking pictures especially people. Ask someone to pose and take his/her pictures. So I went to Dukem on Wednesday and went to its rooftop. Varyan took pictures from my friends Tre, Deby and Rani. The session made them tired. On the last session Deby had an idea to pose and the photo is like this. I really like this photo.

this is my friend Deby

The session made me bored because just saw them being taken pictures by Varyan. So, in the other hand if you (hopefully) follow me on twitter, I really worried with my scores. I couldn't access my Uni student desk because it was maintenance problems. The scores published on the web and I couldn't access it!! But ya, I went to the student desk after I woke up this morning. and its accessible. Now totally revealed. Yay, my scores was good. Thanks God.

Grab the book closest to you. Go to page 56. Find the 5th sentence. Write that sentence in the text box.

Your turn.

Seriously Worried and Jealous

2008-12-02T23:56:00.004+07:00

I have friends (it's plural. Finally) and they mostly joined students activity club. I didn't. They make friends there. One of my friends asked me "Why don't you join any students activity club?" I just smiled and made fun of the question. Pal, if you know the deepest of mijn hart, I really really want to join a/some students activity club and make friends there!!!! But I scared. Totally scared. I can't easily interact with new ppl, new population, etc. I don't know but this behavior seems like has disadvantage for me. I know, have a bunch of friends is important for my future, for example find a job. If you have friends, maybe one of them or more have relation with an employer they can recomend me. But I scared. Really.

If I were.. No. Why do I keep think negative about myself?

The Public Sign

2008-11-28T23:03:00.008+07:00

Two weeks ago on Sunday I went to a hospital to see my uncle. He has a heart disease. It's glad to see him because he seemed like better although he was in ICU. I also met my other aunt and uncle and they wondered with my hair. "Whats wrong with your hair?" or "Do you make it curly?" ask them. I said this is my natural hair and it's ok. So my dad keep talking with my auntie and uncle, made me bored and I left them to discover the hospital. The hospital was big with the garden and too many signs like "The Evacuation Way", "Radiation Area", No smoking", "Infection Damage". The one sign which impressed me is.. oh no. That is not a sign but an announcement. The announcement that the hospital is a donation from Russian Federation in 1963.

Click to enlarge

The text is like this:

RUMAH SAKIT "PERSAHABATAN"

Sumbangan pemerintah dan rakyat uni republik-Republik Sovjet Sosialis kepada pemerintah dan rakyat Republik Indonesia.

Diserahkan oleh pemeritah uni republik- Republik Sovjet Sosialis kepada paduka yang mulia presiden Republik Indonesia bertepatan dengan hari ulang tahun ke-46 Revolusi Sosialis Oktober besar.

Djakarta, 7 Nopember 1963

ДЖAKAPTA, 7 HOЯБPЯ 1963

English Translation (CMIIW):

PERSAHABATAN HOSPITAL

Donation from Union Republic - Social Republic of Soviet's Government and People to The Government and People of Indonesia.

Given by The Government of Union Republic - Social Republic of Soviet to the Majesty president of Indonesia coincidentally with the 46th anniversary of The Revolution of Social Big October.

Jakarta, 7 November 1963

No wonder if I found the Russian translation on the announcement, because in '60 Indonesia was seemed like picked East Block although Indonesia have decided Free Active Politic. Which means, not pick any blocks and actively keep the peace of the world. (That is what I knew from history subject from Elementary school).

This is other sign which impressed me, you can click on the image to enlarge

My First Ice-Skating

2008-11-21T16:08:00.012+07:00

Last week after I did practical exam I went to Budy's house with my friends because we need refreshing. haha. We were watching DVD and I got text message from Wendy that asked me and my friends who were in Budy's house to join ice-skating on Thursday (nov 13) with the other classmates. I told them and they agreed. Wow, I could imagine this is my 1st ice skating and that would full of embarrassing situations.
Thursday was coming so my classmates and I went to a mall which provides an ice rink. We got 50% discount because we are students of Binus Univ. wow! awesome. So we just pay IDR 19000 for entering the ice rink and rent ice-skating shoes This is my first ice-skating shoes

look at the metal blade, (I thought the metal blade is sharp like a knife, and I'm wrong)

I was sure I could play the ice skating because I can stand and walk with the shoes. but when I entered the ice-rink, OMGosh that was sooo slippery!!!!!!! So firstly I walk in the side of rink with the handle on my hands. After 2 rounds with the handle on my hands, I tried to play it without the handle and this is the result: (this video tells all about what happened and I think I don't need to write it haha)

My friend who recorded this video for me gave this video about two days ago and I thought that is sooo embarrassing!!! but, idc, that is the truth. NO PAIN NO GAIN!!!
But eventually with the pain at least I can play it better! yay! The pain in my hands still exist now.

here are several pictures from the ice-rink:

this is the pose when you'll stop gliding

the ice rink

Look at this picture! I seem like the pro one!

2008-11-07T19:59:00.006+07:00

I'll have mid-test on 12, 18, 20, 24-27 November. Now I'm learning about programming especially practical part because the practical test will be held on Wednesday. I don't know but I feel save (for the practical test) because the lab assistants has been shared the materials and exercises. I just practicing the exercises and it was awesome. It has own pride if we successfully created our own program :) Now the problem is about logical. I have to practice my logic so I can understand and make the program easily.

That's What Friends are For

2008-10-30T00:16:00.005+07:00

It's been almost 2 months I'm attending college and periodically I'm making new friends there especially in my class and it was awesome. I remember when the first time I came into the class, there is no one I know before. Alone. lack of friends. huhu. And now i have friends! We shared stories, do the projects together, have fun, lunch, take pictures etc.
New friends, new problems. I said that because each people have their own personality. And sometimes their personalities don’t connect with my personality. Some friends like to silent, some friends like to talk gossip. Some friends have responsible to do the project, some friends just copying the project or just put their name on the project but they didn't contribute anything.
I feel happy in this class because I have friends which are from different backgrounds, school etc. And they make me happy and laugh so I can forget the pressure about the bunch of projects, tasks.
Not like when I'm in high school, the class had serious-atmosphere. That was boring and lack of happiness but in the other hand, the atmosphere made the students concerned about their goal-GRADUATED. I took science class for 2 years and srsly, they are such of serious-ppl and I thought that I did wrong choice. But that was actually the right choice because I had the iron-mental to struggle from problems and solve it, much of knowledge, and friends. We had togetherness for 2 years and in the last year we had trip to beach and stayed for 4 days. I can't forget it, the time we were together, shared our stories etc.

Talking to Jenny and Paula

2008-10-27T22:00:00.006+07:00

I have an English assignment (deadline= tomorrow) so I asked my friend to help me. Ya, she really helped me and allowed me to talk live to the Foreigner (her friend from Germany). It was kinda nervous because I haven't talked English with foreigner. She greeted me and explained about the assignment. It was just for a couple minutes and I gave up to ask her some questions. So I spoke Indonesia to her (what a bigg mistake!) because I was nervous and I couldn't think anymore to speak English (Fyi, I have think before I speak English to someone). So Paula laugh for my silly-ness and talked to me and translated Jenny explanation. Thank you Jenny and Paula, you really help me!

I thought this was hilarious. (thanks Adam!)

Obituary: Mijn Hond

2008-10-22T10:57:00.012+07:00

I have a dog. His name is Jolly. I love him, much. I knew him for 9 years. My mother is a nurse and sometimes she has to do a home-care. It was 1999 when my mother told me that a Mam she does home-caring has a new dogs and offering to adopt one of them. My brother and I visit Mam's house and picked one puppy that slept in the corner and looks lazy. He looks like brown labrador retriever. I wanna take it but a maid there said that I should let him until he aged 1 month. I agreed and came again on April 1st 1999 to take him. He was sooo cute. Arrived at home I gave him milk and rice. He was grown up and loved to biting sandals, wood etc and chase me while barking. I remember that moment... He was a sweet and innocent little boy, full of life and unquestionable love and affection. He always had a smile on his face. Sometimes it's time to do sex with a/some bitch and he didn't come home for one week and when he came home he is stink and dirt. My neighbors also love him. They often play with Jolly and feed him. One of his behaviors is lying down and like talk "come on, scratch my belly!" and if we scratch him, he rockin' his feet. It happens all the time, and he "asked" everyone except my mother and my maid because they too strict with my dog. He also broke his leg and it cured by itself and the biggest broken is about couple month ago in his back leg. I'm not sure if he fought with other dogs because it didn't show any bleeding. In my opinion, dogs use his teeth for fighting, so I think someone has kicked him on his back leg because many people (it mustn't be my neighbors) hate him because he likes barking and sometimes chase ppl that he doesn't know but he doesn't wanna bite them. It makes him suffer for 1 month and finally he could stand on his "suffering".

Jolie came into my life when he was 1 month old, in the 9 years he and I had a relationship that was so special. He was always there with me no matter what; his conditional love will never be forgotten. If I bored, sad, annoyed or something, I call him and he come, sit beside me and lying down, ask for some scratch. So I start to tell my problems, stories, happiness etc and he likes to hear my stories (I hope :)) I like to tell my stories to him, because he can keep my secrets, he won't tell anyone. I trust him. Sadly, I can't get feedback but just begging from him to scratch his belly. But idc if I didn't any feedback, I feel comfort if I already tell him. He likes to follow me if I take a walk near my house, and he can meet his friends etc..... miss tat moment.. *cough*. He’s getting old, more diseases. The most freaking disease is (maybe) cancer on his neck and testis. On August his neck and testis is getting swollen. I thought it just ordinary fat but it getting bigger and bigger. I went to the Internet and found this article and I think he got Lymphoma. I knew it he was very sick, and had gotten so skinny so fast. He started vomiting and not eating off. My brother gave him antibiotics but it made him threw up.

Today I slept at 4 and my Mom knocked my door at 6 and told me Jolly passed away in the garage with vomit around him. I was shocked and checked the truth and ja, He left me forever. I couldn't feed him again, scratching his belly. I couldn't hug him for the last time because he was very stink with the vomit and fæces around him. He looks like sleeping. One day before, my brother and I took him a shower and he was so weak. He couldn’t stand so he lied down when my brother and I was taking him shower and today he passed away. My father dug a grave for him near living room's window. I always have to remember that Jolly knew how much he was loved, and I will never forget how much I loved him. I wish more than anything I could have hugged him one more time, when I took him a shower I had no idea I would never see him again, or even knew really how sick he was although he was very weak during the shower. I'm sure he could struggle until his 10th birthday, but God has other plan. He is peace now, without pain from his cancer.
Everything that happend to Jolly happened so fast, before I knew it I lost my best friend, he brought all my secrets till he died. I really miss him, miss his barking when I come home, his greetings. Seriously, Cancer is not a funny thing. Thanks Morgan, I really realized that. I'm sorry for bad English on this post, I'm sad.

2 Timothy 4:7
I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

Angel
Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There’s always one reason
To feel not good enough
And it’s hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh beautiful release
Memory seeps from my veins
Let me be empty
And weightless and maybe
I’ll find some peace tonight

In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there

So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There’s vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lie
That you make up for all that you lack
It don’t make no difference
Escaping one last time
It’s easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

Skype-ing, Heroes, and Newspapers Seller

2008-10-20T21:00:00.019+07:00

Two days ago I had conference call by skype and my friends and I planned to have conference again which is yesterday. Yesterday I was skype-ing again with my foreigner friends and it was fun. We were talking about the weather (my foreign friends live in Europe and North America) which is I don't ever feel the weather (I haven't go overseas). They said the temperature is about 7-16 Celsius. Wow, and the important thing is SNOW. I never touch snow. But they said it's like ordinary ice flakes. The conversation was progressing for 7 hours. We talked random, about stuff, high school "reminisce", and google earth. We find our place each others, "went" to Disneyland, Cannes, my friends house, saw panoramio photos, beach at Lombok etc. We started at 9pm and ended at 4am.

Today I woke up at 10 (it's too late to take 10am train) and took a breakfast. Actually I have appointment with my friends at 10 (too late ><) to do a college project. So I texted them and apologized for my negligence and re-scheduled our task. It was because I just sleep at 4 after have 7 hours conference call. And then I took 12pm train and arrived at 12:30. When I arrived, my friends were watching Heroes which is I haven't seen before so I joined them. I think Heroes is cool! They recommended me to watch from beginning. Heroes was over and we were doing our project. It actually didn't finish because we have stuck in the middle :) Near 7pm I left my friend's house because I want take 7pm train. When I arrived at train station near my house, I walked to the exit gate and a newspapers seller stopped me and asked for my ticket. I was confused why did he want my ticket but he said "Let me borrow it!!! C'mon, the security guard there won't check it! Please, I need it. Just borrow it to me!" He looks panic. And then my father came and said to the newspapers seller to leave me. This is 50-50. I wanna give him my ticket but his expression and gesture made me curious he has "evil" plan but I don't know. My father told me he wanna get train without buy ticket with take someone ticket. Hmm, Good idea but poor you Sir. You should asked me politely.

________________________________P.S:
I really irritated during write this post because my brother keeps smoking in house. I disappointed with my parents, why don't they forbid my brother to smoking in house?? They just say "Hey, be careful with your cigarettes." or "Are you smoking?" without further action. They don't FORBID him. I can't forbid him because I'm his lil brother. I can't control him. I hate smoke. When do he realized that smoking slowly destruct his body, his lungs? and the smoke is damaged the passive-smoker which is one of them is ME? not only my but also the other family members.

Making fun of Hermione Granger

2008-10-17T03:49:00.013+07:00

I just woke up at 3 after I slept for 11 hours and I'm hungry... Talking about yesterday I attended Discrete Math and Linear Algebra class. First course was Discrete Mathematics and the course wasn't easy. The lecturer "reminisce" algorithm, trigonometry, graphics, cartesian etc. hohoho... Ya, I'm good at math (seriously???? wish me luck in next year because I'll get calculus class). Class was over and my classmates (mostly) got stressed and they came late on Linear Algebra class. Today I was checking my youtube channel to watch my subscriptions video. It took almost 5 hours to watch it all because my last log in is for 1 week (plus slow internet connection). And then my phone rang at 9 and my new friend Varyan called me to visit my crib. I said ok and he came at 10. Varyan actually has been my neighbor 3 years ago and his mother is my mother friend. Before I attend orientation for my college, my mother told me that the son of her friend also attend the same university with me but idc because I don't know him. And yesterdag, one of my classmates recommend me to Varyan to go home together because he didn't take his car and asked me to go home with public transportation and I said ok. He asked me my house and wow, he is "the son of my mother friend" that I told before. Ja, he came to my house and I thought I little bit boring for him. Just talking about college, general, task, project etc. This is always be, I couldn’t easily interact with new friend(s). Honestly, I don’t like to be like this. Friends are important. Connections.

Aha, I took a test that will give the "value" of your blog. hahaha, here is the result:

My blog is worth $0.00.
How much is your blog worth?

No wonder if i get worse or (actually) worst value because I created this blog just for practicing my English and just for fun.

According to today’s title, my friend was making fun of me. Gross. I hate that. Why did I write Hermione Granger? Because I have been reading the 7th edition of Harry Potter: Deathly Hallow and I love Hermione Granger. Emma Watson zOMG you’re hot!! Oh ja, I have story before I read Harry Potter book. Harry Potter 7th ed. launched in 2007 and Indonesian translation launched on Jan 2008. So I borrowed Joey's book on October (too late :( ). Before I borrow it, I read one of article that tell one of character killed on that final book and accidentally I READ IT!!! crap.. crap... fugly bitch... and the second spoiler is.. when I read this book (i think about 30%) I checked on the internet about Harry Potter and Wikipedia tells about the Weasley ginealogical and again, for second times.. ACCIDENTALLY read it. garbage. dog. bulls. T_T

UPDATED OKT 19: I finished read Harry Potter. yeah!! All of the spoilers are liar.

My Friends who is Struggling to live in Cross Country and Staples® Easy Button™

2008-09-27T22:28:00.010+07:00

I used to think that I want to study cross-country. I asked my parents about it and you can guess it they refused my idea. Sometimes I envy my friends, they continue their study to USA, Europe, Australia etc. And I loved to hear their stories about their adventure, the atmosphere there, the native-attitudes, the culture, the scenery etc. That is the stories when they had their vacation there. But when they attended school there, they have to struggle to live there, with new life, new culture, new environment etc. And it's hard to interact with people with different culture, attitudes. We have to find people with same interest, same mind. One of my friends got culture shock in Europe (actually she is the citizen of Netherlands, but she spent her education in Indonesia), felt lonely, homesick. But my other friend easily interact with her new friends. I asked her how could you do that because my friend who live in Netherlands is getting culture shock and stressed about it. She said that the important things is just be active and easy-going. Sometimes she can't interact with the native because they are over-confident. I don't know what she mean over-confident because she said "It's hard to explain" :)

I watched smosh video on youtube. This video titled "Going to the Mountains" and I found one stuff on that video that... I don't know but that is cute. An Easy button. (a staples product)

When you push the easy button, it will say "That was easy". At first I don't know what is the purpose of this "red button, and my friend from Canada told me Pick one up for yourself. Your coworker. And how about one for your boss? It's a great reminder to keep things easy at work. And that's just the way we like it. Plus, each year, Staples Foundation for Learning will donate all proceeds from this product, up to $1 million, to Boys & Girls Club of America. I want get it but I think there is nothing Staples store in Indonesia anymore.

Dilemma, the security at RedPal station and My Cousin-who-has-been-travelling-to-China

2008-09-24T23:39:00.005+07:00

It was Monday night when I finished my class and ask Maureen for the Borland C++ program (the program that help me to understand the practical class). So I met her and opening my laptop to copy the program. My other classmate (which is I don't know some of them) has a big curious and they join me and Maureen. So they asked about the program, some of them couldn't install it on their computer and they persuaded me to install the Borland C++ on my laptop. It wasn't work. With this occasion I could made new friends (Thanks God!!). The show ended and we went to first floor. ACTUALLY after the class I promised to my friend Echa for wait me in front of the library. I met her and she looks mad. When her and I stepped out to the outside my new friends asked me to join their Algorithm group and I accepted it. So we shared our cell number each other and took a long time. I know Echa's position. She has pretension to get mad because she was waiting for me for long time and she didn't get involved on my conversations. It was a dilemma. I want to go home with my friend but I have to speak to my new friends. Terrible. But Echa did understand. She honestly said to me that she get bored and annoyed but it doesn't matter she said. I also ask apologize to her and she forgave me.

On Saturday, I arranged a meeting with my group to do the Algorithm project in Budy's kost. I took the 8:30 train and I arrived at RedPal. When I got out from the train station I gave my ticket (I got it from my tickets "album" and I don't know if the ticket was expired) and the security guard called me and ask for the today's ticket. I didn't feel scared because I bought the ticket. So I opened my bag and search for the ticket and I released my old-expired tickets.

Security guard: "WHY DID YOU KEEP THE EXPIRED TICKETS??? YOU KNOW, IT CAN BE MISUSED!!!
Me: "I just collected it because as usual some of security guard didn't take it!"
Security guard: "Just put in in the garbage! Just be honest, you didn't buy the ticket, did you?"
Me: (finally found the ticket) This is my brand-new ticket take it with my expired tickets and let me go!!!!

GOSH...............
Finally I arrived at my Campus, meet my friends and went to Budy's kost. His room was really-really COMFORT!!! Air-conditioned with the internet connection and the bathroom. So my group did the project until 11am and we went to campus to take a class.
Class was ended, time to go home. I took Banten Express train (Brand New) and it was Crowded. I got my place at the door so I can see outside clearly. Arrived in Kebajoran Lama Station the passengers getting stack and they pushed me. A mom with her boxes and her child keeps complaining that still more space in the train. She keeps talking about her uncomfortable and her willing to get in. Finally the train started to go and ja, the mom still angry about her position. I really hate her. She have to think that this is the risk if she take a cheap and crowd train. Do not blame the other passengers.

Today I received a myspace message from my cousin. He has been travelling to China and now he is in Tibet. He asked me my home address. I checked his new photo and Oh my golly... I envy him! I saw beautiful cloud, scenery, a clean town, etc. I never been travelled cross country anymore!

here is his photo in Tibet (Totally jealous :))

First Impressions of being college-student

2008-09-19T22:55:00.016+07:00

I just started being a college-student for 2 weeks. It feels like I'm more free now, I don't have to wear uniform, being scared of seniors, teachers, my hair if getting long etc. More free but the university still have rules that I should obey. My first class started at evening and get settled at noon. hmmm, kinda boring because I haven't friends yet but now I have friends (thanks God!) and homeworkS (it's plural). huhuhu.. ja, each decision have its consequence. Being student at college is more free but more homework, more project, task and the lecturer won't give the excuse.

Oh ja, I also attended selection for being an activist on Association of Computer Science Students on Sunday. I hesitated because as long as i know, no one of my friends signed up for the selection. But because I didn't have much works so I attended the selection. First part is written test and the questions that I couldn't imagine before. The test ask about the association, motivation and psychology. after that was an interview. I felt nervous because I never do this before. An interview, gosh that is the horrify part because the will know about my life, my personality. I don't know but I hate interview. Maybe because I had bad attitudes :) I know, the interview is important because the will know about the personality and they can decided that are we acceptable or not. They asked my motivations, 'weird' questions, my answers on written test etc. With the interview, I know being an activist is not easy as I think before. A lot of works and shared our time with study etc. I don't know but God have his way. After the interview ended, they gave me a Pin. nice.

I received text messages from my friends. They told me that a reunion will be held today at 7pm. I already know about this. I read on facebook about the reunion and actually this reunion is a pre-reunion and whoever wants to attend should sign-up. I don't interested because this is just a pre-reunion. But Widya told me the school was crowded. I replied the message to ask more but she didn't text me back.

I was listening to 101,4 TraxFM couple minutes ago and signing up for Guling Program which is the program that will contact the person that recommended by signed-up listener and the listener can greet for Birthday on-air.

Ja of course I shocked because I knew the voice, she is Gabriela Paula. Wow, they called her but they didn't call me???? She was interviewed during waited for called me but I couldn't found any call or missed call on my cell. Gosh,,, that is the time and just over... the program was ended and they just told that I sent the message. huhuhu T_T. I didn't on-air!!! And Paula said I such a gossip-boy. hmmm.. Poor me. I called her after the program and greeted for Happy Birthday. She said it's okay and asked for call later because she had surprise party. I wish I had surprise party on my birthday. There's nothing special on my birthday. Haha, just hoping.

Are You Ready for College?

2008-09-07T22:10:00.009+07:00

Gosh, tomorrow is my first day on campus. Wish me luck!!! I got the schedule and the class starts at 3:20pm. I planned that I must go from home at 2, get the train and arrive at Redpal maybe at 2:30. Still one hour free. What should I do? I still have no idea what i should do at campus because I have no friends yet. I mean, for my class. I just know one friend she is Maureen from my orientation class. Dio, benas min so I can make MUCH friends there.......

I little bit feel regret because I didn't sign up for English Club. huhu. I should signed up it because I will get the ToEFL exam. huaaaa.... I don't know my ToEFL. Echa actually asked me to join but I felt hesitate. I always feel hesitate, about anything. Especially for the new task, issue or anything. I spent my time to think, think and think and that's waste my time and take my brain to being tired and my mood will going down. I have to change this behavior because the campus life will be more complex and difficult. I can't take my time just for think and think. I just filled the Nobel Dream on Binusmaya and finally, I confidently filled it.

Ya, yesterday night I went to a new restaurant with my family. It is a new restaurant and give discount for 20%. The restaurant is Sambal Desa.

So we came in and took a table. The table position wasn't comfort anymore. That is 4-side table and actually each person have to sit on each side. But, because of one of the side is directly connected with the "path" so it couldn't be. And my brother and my mother have to shared in one side.

And the problem wasn't ended, the second problem is ....... my legs were stuck on the f**kin table.

I felt unconfortable!!!!!!! It took bad effects, I couldn't enjoy my meal. huhu. Honestly, the meal is delicious and expensive. The total is $11,12. Oh ja, during the dinner suddenly the lamp turn off for 5 minutes. Wow. hahaha... I also met Yulia Vonny and her family there.

The meal.. is actually good and delicious. You should try it. But for the services, Gross. The waiters need more practise. They are very unorganized. And also, the separation of non-smoker seat should be more strict because I still found a man smoking in non smoker area. grrr.

that's all for today. I have to prepare myself to greet my new life tomorrow. Campus life, I'm cominggggg!!!

Attending "Inaugurasi Program Binusian 2012"

2008-09-01T14:03:00.013+07:00

Yesterday I attended "Inaugurasi Program Binusian 2012" at Plenary Hall Jakarta Convention Center and it was fun and made me hungry :( Okay let's begin from 5am I'm woke up and got breakast. I arrived there at 7 and I didn't know anybody there. Thanks God I met Raymond, Stephen, Nonnie and Jimmy. We were talking for a short time but they left me because we had a different seat at this event. I was searching for my classmate but i didn't find it. And then I had a bright idea, I came into the hall and I found the seat of my class. My classmates were sitting there. And then my other friends come in and the mentor finally felt that the seat was not enough for my class. So some of my friends sat on the carpet. After that, a film while we had Program Binusian 2012 showed for 15minutes. funny and weird. hehehe. And then, I don't know who is he but he greeted the students and asked for make "wave". NO ONE made wave. But finally some class on tribune made wave. My class sat on the first floor so we can see the event clearly. At 9, the Inaugurasi officially opened. First is oration from the Chief of this program, and oration from the Rector. And then we inaugurated omen by wearing our alma mater jacket and sang "Mars Bina Nusantara" and "Mars Binusian". after the Inauguration, result for the best class and the best mentor. I don't remember the winner. But i just remember the first place best mentor is Kurniawan, Steven's mentor.

After the inauguration ceremony, it's time for Entertainment. The entertainer are from UKM and Binusian 2012. First is band. The band performed three songs. And then short play from Japan Literature major. My friend Yuki played a role on this short play. I can't catch the point on this short play because the microphone wasn't worked properly. And then short play from Binus International. I think that was awesome but they get booed from the other. The story is like this, The student who attended orientation at in Binus International were being surprised when one of their friend is a Joker (character in Batman). Joker has no friends. So he likes to break the rules. But finally he has friends in Binus University and promoted Binus University to high school students. He said "If you search for a good university, Just two words, Binus University". I have to confess that their short play is Good. One scene that I remember is
student: "eh, lo bawa makanan apa?"
mentor: "hey you speak Bahasa, one thousand for each word!"
And then they get booed by the other students (maybe not for the BI) and we shouted "In-do-ne--s(y)ia" like in football competition. hahaha.
After short play from Binus International, there's so many band performances and it turned me to hungry. of course my friends felt the same. Not only bands, but also duet from the mentors, choir from Paramabira (they won second place on choir competition in Barcelona), Duet from class (they sang "The Prayer". I guessed it correctly), Piano recital, theater, dance and the last is band from UKM. The show ended at 1:30. I met Doan when he was waiting for Witri. I also met Yuki, Hendy, Steven and Edward. Thanks God I met them because I can join them to going home.

So the point is... Hungry. Ya, I got breakfast at 5am and the event ended at 1:30pm

Schedule

2008-08-30T10:59:00.003+07:00

Tada..... this is my schedule..... I got free days for 2 days. wahaha.. But I just found one friend in this class. huhu

Wish me luck at University!!!

2008-08-29T15:55:00.019+07:00

First day of orientation. I woke up at 4 and ate breakfast. get settled and went to the Pondok Randji train station, took the 6am train so I'll arrived at RedPal (Palmerah) at 6:20. I met some of Binusian 2012 there but i don't know them. maybe from different major. I took Public transportation (microlet) M11 and broght me to the campus. While I'm in Microlet my new friend Ninda called me and asked me which one is the campus.
Arrived in Syahdan Campus I went to L2A class and my friend Ninda was sitting in front of the class. She also introduced her friend Nia to me Afterwards our mentor was coming and asked we to come into the class. Apparently the others was sitting in the class. haha why did I should waiting outside class?
First session is "Success at University". The speaker talked about tips to success, do's and dont's etc. She also made a great games to make friends. The game called "Jadi Artis" (become famous). I made new friends with this game.
Second session is "Program Studi Kurikulum" which is all of student which took Computer Science major submitted in one class K3A-B and the Chief of Major explained about the major.
After that, our senior from HIMTI (Computer Science Student Association) came in and explain about the Association and offering the HIMTI kit which is contains T-shirt, CD, magazine etc. I bought it on EXPO. Actually i just wanted the CD because the CD contains programs that essential for my studies.
The third session is "Prakuliah: Algoritma dan Pemrograman". hmm... lil' bit difficult but thanks to Charitas because I got programming language when I attended high school. The senior who taught me also gimme homework. I really agree because we need practise.

Tue, Aug 26 2008

I need more sleep because I just slept for 4 hours!! I woke up at 4 and took breakfast and get settled. went to station, got the train and arrived at Orchid Campus. And I met Ninda while I walked to the campus. We found the class and there was my other friends there.
First session is we learned about how to use binusmaya which is the most important thing for Binusian because we can get information about the study, material, GPA, forum etc from this site. I don't know but I felt sleepy during this session.
Second session is "Binusian Smart and Good". We were watching video and studied about the case. I don't know but I felt uncomfort with this session. After this session a man came into the class and asked we to take some picture. Here is the picture but minus Kak Yanita because she busy with one of our friends which is sick.

Third session is "Prakuliah" again and the senior asked about the homework. We also learned about the new material. OMG! I have no idea about it. That was hard.
Last session is "Upgrading Your English Ability" which is we have to do exersise about English contains Reading, Structure and Listening. I stuck on Structure. huhu. But our mentor said that the university won't give the result. wtf?? And I wrote about it in questioner on the last day. I was walking from Orchid campus to station because I'm not patient to wait the M11. TIRED!!!!

Wed, Aug 27 2008

I woke up at 5 (OMG I'm Late!!) so I fastly breakfast and get settled and running to the station. Thanks God I could reached the train. i also broght the cooking oil.
I arrived at Syahdan campus and went to the class. Much friends was waiting on the balcony. This day is the most fun day because we can see the introduction of UKM (Student Activity Unit) in Binus University. They were creative... they did anything to impress the watcher so they will join the UKM.
After the Introduction of UKM, I helped my friends to decorate the kiosk for 'sell' cooking oil. I made crane from a paper and taught my other friends. Actually I'm not the crew for decorating but Nia asked me to join and I accepted. My crew and i went downstairs to the field and the situation is crowded. Crew from other class was decorating their kiosk. My friends and I decorated the kiosk although looks simple

our kiosk (Wendy and Winda, rhyming name, isn't it?)

After the decorating time finished, my mentor asked we to come back to the class to learn the 'yelyel' of the class. After that, we went to the field to perform our 'yelyel'. this is the video:

and also we from all DBN class were making wave and singing Binusian March

after the program finished at 5pm, we want to take some picure but he have to leave the field hurry so the picture wasn't good. here is the result

haha...... This day was fun!!

Thu, Aug 28 2008

The last day of orientation...... first session is Binusian Community, is explained about the history of Binus and how to in Binus University.
Second session is Binusian learning culture. this session explained about how to studying in Binus which is I think that is difficult or maybe my mindset is still like high school student. Oh ja, our mentor also gave the task to write our impression about the mentor, Kak Williem Paopao dan Kak Yanita Yanyan. If we didn't submit the tast we will not get the Binusian 2012 certificate. haha....
We went to other class for lunch and sharing knowledge. It means, our mentor shared their experience while they studying at Binus University. From their story we can take lesson and tips studying in university. I think Kak Williem is smart and Kak Yanita is hard-worker.
Next session is EXPO for 3 hours and I met Echa and Melissa and they accompanied me to look the EXPO.. I tried to played Igo. Igo is a chess from Japan. I played with the senior in Nippon club. He also taught me to play it. I wanna also try kendo, but the show was end T_T. And Echa end Melissa makes me bored.............. They leave me alone!!!!!!! I don't know but they go home without greet me. huh.. And then I went to HIMTI booth and signed up for being HIMTI activist. I also met Yuki she broght me to Bvoice booth and I think Bvoice is cool but I think I wanna join in the next year. Toward to 4pm, I went to the class and my friends was sharing phone number and I did too. at 4, we came into the class and the mentors said thank you and said their impression about our class. At first the mentors felt bored because the class was passive and doing riot but on the third day the mentors felt one with us.
And after that we don't forget to take picture:

THANK YOU PROGRAM BINUSIAN 2012, THANK YOU DBN05, YOU'RE ROCKS!!!!!

Hi, today i woke up at 6 and prepared myself to attended Briefing at Binus University. My mood was bad because i woke up with my father mad because someone had not turned off the gas stove. His expression made me terrible. And then i took breakfast and prepared myself. My father and I went at 8. During the drive, we met traffic jam and I arrived at 9 and the Briefing has started. I knocked the DBN05 door and the Mentor allowed me to come in and I sat in front of the class without anyone there that I know.
I felt annoyed there because the space was not spacious. And then more students came late after me. Time to absent, and I didn't brought pen so I borrowed pen from the girl who sitting beside me. Her name is Ninda from SMA Labschool Rawamangun. I don't make much friends there because I felt annoyed. I don't know why. And then our class learned the March of Binus, 'yelyel', and the rule of student. my class is clatter because contains 80 student. and no more space. huhu..... ya, we got briefing for 3 hours and then we have to take the Alma Mater Jacket on Orchid Campus. I went there, alone. And there I met my classmate, his name is Bagus. I came to the hall, fitted the jacket and i think it was good. And when I tried at home.... gosh, that was too small. oh my dog, I hope i can return it and get the new size bigger than this one.

Ya, I came back from dinner with my family in The Cost BSD. it was fun and I found happiness there. I can erased all the anxiousness. I impressed with one statue there

Yesterday evening, I filled the registration form of my future university and I called Widya to check my Graduation Certificate because I think there’s any problem with the serial number. I called her I she told me she has the same, so everything's ok. When we were talking, she told me about the announcement because one of our friends has known his result. That’s make me curious so I open the website and.. Yeah. It works. So first I check my friend’s number. No result. And me, no result. So Widya asked me to check her result. I said ok and ask her number. After she gimme her number, she told me to don’t check her result after she finish her prayer. About one minute, she told me to check it. One thing in my mind, no result. But, God has other plan:

Yeah. He lucky. Congrats mijn vrienden, miaj amikoj. My father keeps telling me to check it on the official day. Yeah, I checked it. twice, four times, many times.

I am learning Languages

2008-07-30T13:04:00.011+07:00

Hello. Finally we meet again. Hmm.. There’s so long times no see you my daily journal. Some of my journal I kept them on my personal folder because I had time-based internet connection. And now I have the unlimited so I think I can post more journals here. Yep. The topic of today’s journal is LANGUAGES. I’m studying many languages such as English, Mandarin, Dutch, French, Esperanto and Russian. Now I will reveal to you guys about the progress and why I studied the languages.
First is English. I’m learned English because when I was in 4th grade, my elementary school give this subject for the students. At first I’m so scared and feel unconfident to learn this language. But I am not alone, my friends feel the same. And then apparently, I’m good in English. And it makes me love English and thank God at least I’m not too dumb in English. But I have to thank to my friends Grace Inggrid Sinaga. She is my friend in 5th grade and she loved to speak and talk English. She makes me motivated to learn English. But I think my English is still bad till I get the Official course and I get certificated. I’m always hesitating to get English course because I’m not confident with myself. I think it’s a trauma because when I was a kid I’m often getting rejected in new community. That’s it about the English. I’m sorry for my bad English if you read this journal. I just practice it. I remember when I will learn Russian; I read a quote “Most importantly, when you get the chance: Practice! Never be afraid to make mistakes. Everyone does! The people who make the most mistakes learn the most. Always try to explain what you want, even if it takes time.”
I learn Mandarin for 2 years. It started from my 11th grade in my High School. I’m not sure about my Mandarin skill because I’m only good at writing (not the characters). For speaking, I was dumb. But for the basic, the pronounciation, I got it. I think Mandarin is one of have-to-learn language because most of people in this world speak Mandarin. I like Mandarin class because the teacher is still young so they know me. And they were so friendly. Now I was graduated from High School. I won’t get the class again. Maybe next time I will attend Mandarin course.
My grandmother was a Dutch teacher. She can speak Dutch fluently and so does her husband which is my opa. They were lived in Dutch colonisation. I’m also having a Dutch friend, Paula Franken but she can’t speak Dutch well. But she will try it. Now she moves to Netherland to continue her school there. They are who motivated me to learn Dutch. Coincidentally, I have much Dutch literature such as bible, certificate, books, etc from my grands. And the dictionary too. So I can learn Dutch from them. I’m started to learn Dutch when my brother said that Youtube is blocked by government. He said that Youtube is useful for many people because it can teach anything. How to play guitar, drums, or learn languages. Yeah, learn languages. Ya, Youtube ever have been blocked by government to prevent the spreading of Fitna movie who produced by Geert Wilders. Fitna Movie was hurt the Moslems. I don’t know why. I never watch the movie. Ok, back to the topic. Yeah when I went to internet café, I open the youtube and it works! And then I search for video that provided to learn Dutch. There are so many videos and I pick several and convert them to watch them at home. And from the videos, it make me curious, so I am googling and found the free online Dutch course. It makes me happy. But it not works well because I haven’t internet connection at home. So I learn from videos, literature and my friends help me with keep asking questions. They asked about how this sentences in Dutch. And I help them. It makes me feel happy because my existence in language was accepted. ALTHOUGH, I think it worst. I have to take course. I can’t be snob. I can’t be snob. I can’t be snob!!!!!!!! It worst…….
I have friend. Her sister is studying frech by attending CCF. I’m ever seen “Little Blackbook” and one of the casts is have Frech accent. Oh mijn God, dat was HOT!!! Okok, I think while I learn Dutch, I can learn Frech too. So I am googling again, found one free online course. And I found it. Hmm, I’m registered there, and I’m start learn french. They also send me weekly tips to learn french. At the end, my course is not works well. Ya, I’m often missed it. I’m often missed it because I found new language that easy to learn. It is Esperanto. Yes, Esperanto. I attended the exam for enter the public university in Indonesia. And there is a question:

Bahasa Esperanto memiliki sistem gramatika yang sistematis sehingga bebas dari pengecualian, berbeda dengan dari bahasa natural yang sarat dengan pengecualian sehingga sering membingungkan.
Kata yang paling tepat menggantikan kata bercetak tebal dalam kalimat itu berturut-turut adalah…

And it makes me curious, is Esperanto easy? It challenges me to learn Esperanto. So I’m googling, search on wikipedia, and search for free online course. And not only online course, but also I got the freeware to learn Esperanto. Yeah, it works. I can speak Esperanto now and that’s so easier than French or English. I just will only add many vocabularies in Esperanto and that’s making easy to speak in Esperanto. Not many people speak Esperanto because they think Esperanto will change the International language. Esperanto isn’t natural language. Zamenhoff has created it in 1878. He wanted to there is a language, that easy to learn, and the world accept it. Zamenhof at his time hates the international languages such as French, English, and Latin although he can speak those languages. I’m also still learning with the master of Esperanto. I found him on Youtube. He posted the counting in Esperanto video and I sent him message to doing correction in my lesson and he would.
Couple days ago, I posted an Esperanto sentences on my personal message in MSN. And my friend Dian asked me, is that Spanish? No, I said. That is Esperanto. And we were talking about languages. And she gimme a question, what is “He loves me not” in Russian. Again, it challenges me. I am googling searching for free online Russian course. And at first, for learn Russian, we have to learn the Alphabet. Yeah, it was fun!! Now I’m learning Russian and seem I will miss the Esperanto course. Yeah, it always did. I’m not finish learn one language, and I’m start learn other language and miss the first course. Duh, I’m soo confused!!!!

hmmm.. that was that I deserve with all of my effort. I thought maybe I'll get bad score like 4 or 5 but the reality twisted it.

Life goes on, I have to find my next education. next university. I still confused. I still can't decide what major that I should take. In my heart I wanna take medicine major but the consequences is the more money my parents should spend and the more time I should spend for study medicine. I afraid I'll don't have more free time if I take medicine major like I take science class. Everyday is study and study. But God has his plan. Sooner or later he'll show his plan to me.

I remember my high school friends, Nandy, Paula, Olga, Niko, how are they doing now...

This song is washing my brainn... check this song! click here

Ich bin Schnappi, das kleine Krokodil.
Komm aus Ägypten, das liegt direkt am Nil.
Zuerst das ich in einem Ei,
dann schni-,schna-,schnappte ich mich frei

[ Refrain ]
Schni Schna Schnappi
Schnappi Schnappi Schnapp
Schni Schna Schnappi
Schnappi Schnappi Schnapp
Ich bin Schnappi, das kleine Krokodil,
hab scharfe Zähne, und
davon ganz schön viel.
Ich schnapp mir was ich schnappen kann,
ja schnapp zu, weil
ich das so gut kann.

[ Refrain ]
Schni Schna Schnappi
Schnappi Schnappi Schnapp
Schni Schna Schnappi
Schnappi Schnappi Schnapp
Ich bin Schnappi, das kleine Krokodil,
ich schnappe gern, das ist
mein Lieblingsspiel.
Ich schleich mich an die Mama ran,
und zeig ihr wie ich schnappen kann

[ Refrain ]
Schni Schna Schnappi
Schnappi Schnappi Schnapp
Schni Schna Schnappi
Schnappi Schnappi Schnapp
Ich bin Schnappi, das kleine Krokodil,
und vom Schnappen, da krieg
ich nicht zu viel.
Ich beiß dem Papi kurz ins Bein,
und dann, dann schlaf ich einfach ein.

[ Outro ]
Schni Schna Schnappi
Schnappi Schnappi Schnapp (schnapp!)
Schni Schna Schnappi (ja!)
Schnappi Schnappi Schnapp (schnapp!)
Schni Schna Schnappi (mhmm!)

Schnappi, das kleine Krokodil (Schappi, the little Crocodile)

I am Schnappi, the little crocodile,
I live in Egypt, right next to the Nile,
first I lived in an egg,
but then shnapped my way free

chorus
Schni-schna-schnappi schnappi-schnappi-schnapp
.....

I am Schnappi the little crocodile
have sharp teeth and mighty many of them
I shnap what's there to shnap
I shnap and am good at it

chorus

I am Schnappi the little crocodile
I love to shnap, that's my favourite play
I sneak up to mum
and show her how well I shnap

chorus

I am Schnappi the little crocodile
I'm never tired of shnapping
I shnap daddy's leg
and then just fall asleep

chorus

the third try-out

2008-02-29T18:46:00.002+07:00

I'll get try-out for national exam from the government of Monday. The teachers in my school are very-very-very sure that our competences can be measured with the try-out, especially from the government. So I decided to get good score!
My teacher suggested my class to make a team work to study together couple day ago. So I have a team called Grup Burung HAntu (Owl Group). Why did I choose owl as the name of the team? because owl is a symbol of knowledge (as long as I know :p )
So today is the first time the OWL Group had the studying together. I hope I can get the good score! Wish me Luck!!
