Wow,yesterday is the second time in this month I go to Malang.It's because of Caroline's wedding's held in Malang.Going to Malang with the '98 gang.Iyan & his new girlfriend aren't going together with us.We bring 2 cars from Surabaya,mine and Ardi's.

We stay at Hotel Perdana,Batu(20-30 minutes) from Malang and the hotel quiet cheap and clean.We take 2 rooms,one for the boys and one for the girls.After some preparation and make up,together we go to the restaurant.Unlucky since we come a little bit late,we hv to separate so far cause the table is not enough 4 all of us.

After the wedding ceremony we going back to the hotel,the ladies clean of the make up and going to bed eventhough some of us still can't sleep.The gentlemen playing card on the other room.Not so long, Lilik and Rosa (our friend who live in Batu) come and have a chat since they haven't meet the gang for a long time.

After midnight Lilik,Rosa and I going out to buy some durian and go back to the hotel.Most of them hate durian or didn't want to eat it so Iyan,Lilik and I finish it ourself like the old time ^_^

Today we check out from the hotel and going to Malang,eat Bakso Bakar,then stop for a while at Vei's house before we playing bowling and go-kart at Puncak Dieng.

Malang Trip

Yesterday I'm going to Malang with Xtien,so nice to see her again and talk a lot during the trip. We're going to see the boys (Ikang,Ian,and Iten). All of them are here because they want to avoid the black out in Bali (Nyepi celebration).They come since 9/3.

After we're arrive,I take them eat at Waroeng Steak then playing at Plaza Araya. It's already around 7p.m. when we going back to Surabaya and the boys also coming with us.

We take our dinner at Kya Kya Kembang Jepun and then still we take some snack at Citras when C Fong (Xtien older sister) calling and ask us to join her at RedBoxx.I take them to some popular night place of Surabaya.

We take a drink and listen to the hard music and sometimes the boys also dance.We left RedBoxx at about 3 a.m. I certainly will not going home at this time.Xtien ask me to sleep at the hotel together with her and the boys(luckyly the place is big enough for all of us)


Bali Gang

What will Happen?

Where are we on 5 or 10 years later?
Mungkin kita akan bertemu di sebuah cafe (ato rumah Ardi - Dj,like always)
Duduk dan berceloteh dan tertawa dan menanyakan
"How's your life?" "Gimana kabarmu?" "Sekarang ngapain?"
Mungkin dengan anak2 berteriak dan berlari di sekeliling kita
Mungkin salah satu dari kita sibuk menyusui bayinya
Mungkin salah satu dari kita menggendong bayi yang lain
Mungkin salah satu dari kita blajar lagi ke luar negeri
Mungkin salah satu dari kita tlah berkeliling dunia
Mungkin salah satu dari kita menjadi ibu rumah tangga yang baik
Mungkin salah satu dari kita terlalu sibuk dengan pekerjaan (sampe2 masih single)
Mungkin pembicaraan kita tidak lagi connect(jadi musti blajar telepati kayak Iyan n Botak)

Hahaha yesterday '98 gank kumpul2 ngrayain Imut's birthday and mumpung Sheila di Sby (lagi blajar di Germany). Melihat mereka smua jadi ingat mereka yang dulu dan perubahan mereka sekarang. Otomatis jadi berpikir...hemmm...kita akan jadi seperti apa ya di masa yang akan datang?

People change but...keep up the team guys...miss u all.

Choices of Life

"Berbahagialah orang yang tau apa yang dia cari dan diberi waktu yang cukup untuk mencari" (Tentang dia, by Melly Goeslaw)

Ok,aku sampai lagi di sebuah persimpangan. Dan jalan yang harus ku tempuh sangatlah sulit untuk diputuskan. Yang satu...jalan yang suram,penuh duri dan batu serta tak ada makhluk hidup yang terlihat disana tapi diujungnya terlihat ladang gandum,dan buah segar serta berbagai tawaran yang tak terhingga dan membuat air liur menetes.Bagaikan melihat kolam emas...

Jalan yang satu lagi...jalan yang ceria,penuh sinar,buah2an (walau tidak berlebihan) di kiri dan kanan jalan nya, makhluk2 berbagai jenis berlompatan menari dan tertawa,tapi...tak terlihat sesuatu yang bisa ditawarkan atau dijanjikan oleh jalan ini karna ujung jalan ini masih tidak terlihat.

Aku harus terus berjalan,jalan manakah yang harus ku ambil?Manakah yang harus kutapak untuk masa depan ku?????? Disinilah aku duduk,bersila di persimpangan ini.Menunggu kata hatiku berbicara, harus kemanakah diriku???????

China Liaoning Handicapped Acrobatics and Art Troupe

"Siapa kira,tak punya tangan bisa menyangga langit.Siapa kira, tak punya kaki bisa menghentak bumi" said San Tan, pemandu pertunjukan yang duduk di kursi rodanya. Kalimat tersebut untuk menggambarkan besarnya semangat hidup dan kehebatan rekan-rekannya para penyandang cacat.(Jawa Pos,Rabu 16 Feb 2005)

Hari minggu kemarin aku ngliat pertunjukan akrobat yang lain dari biasanya, soalnya pemainnya physically is not perfect.Some of them are deaf and cannot speak.The other hv no leg,or hand.But their performance is perfect.Just like normal person. Mereka nglakukin hampir semua gerakan acrobat seperti biasanya.Salto di udara,lompat harimau,tari,nyanyi,putar diudara dengan kekuatan gigi,dsb.This group is the only acrobat group in China who have handicapped people as the member,or maybe in the world.Kelompok ini uda berdiri 14 tahun di kota Shenyang.

Wow...bagi olahragawan seperti aku,aku tau gimana rasanya,gimana sulitnya nglakuin semua itu bahkan dengan 2 kaki dan 2 tangan yang sempurna. Aku harus angkat topi untuk mereka yang pastinya bekerja n berusaha 2x or brapa kali lipat lebih dari orang biasa. Untuk akrobat yang sulit bisa memakan waktu sampai 4 tahun latihan katanya.

So, be though 4 U if physically U're not normal. There'll be always a hope somewhere if U try.And 4 U who's born normal and physically complete,be happy with what U have n use it for U and also the other.Don't be so selfish and keep Ur body healthy because its a gift.

If u want to see some picture of the performance just click http://dolphinrider.fotopic.net/c433276.html

Letting Go...

Beach oh beach...
Please bleach tis heart...

Far Far away is the name of the place you live

Beach oh beach
I can't see the end of yours
So that the end of mine
Where r u my love?

Beach oh beach
Come and take this tears with u
Back to the place where u come from
Cause that's what I should do
Walkaway and let you go....

I know I have to let her go but after all of the year I've spent with her....it's so hard.Goodbye Panther....may you be blessed and have some fun there...

Old & New

Taon ini pemerintah mengeluarkan himbauan untuk tidak berhura-hura di malam taon baru,di karenakan suasana duka di Indonesia.Sampai hari ini tercatat 80.000 nyawa lebih menjadi korban tsunami di Indonesia.

I should be at Bali with Xtien-Titien families this new year eve.But,the tsunamis make me and some of my officemate cancelled the trip for the sake of taking a saving way.

So at last,I spent this new year eve with the old gank, '98 gank at Ardi-Dj's house. It's been so long since I met them, sometimes I feel that I'm not belong to that group anymore cause I'm not as outgoing as the other. So much changes between us,so many people in and out our live,so many unspoken words,but....still that familiar laugh are still the same. The laugh that we were share together. So there we are like an old day,celebrating and welcoming the year of 2005. HAppy New Year to all of u my friend,wherever you are.....

2004 Indian Ocean Earthquake

Berita Kepada Kawan
by Ebiet G. Ade

Perjalanan ini terasa sangat menyedihkan
Sayang, engkau tak duduk di sampingku kawan
Banyak cerita yang mestinya kau saksikan
Di tanah kering berbatuan
Tubuh ku terguncang di hempas batu jalanan
Hati tergetar menampak kering rerumputan
Perjalan ini pun seperti jadi saksi
Gembala kecil menangis sedih
Kawan coba dengar apa jawabnya
Ketika ia ku tanya "Mengapa?"
Bapak ibunya telah lama mati
Ditelan bencana tanah ini
Sesampainya di laut ku khabarkan semuanya
Kepada karang, kepada ombak, kepada matahari
Tetapi semua diam, tetapi semua bisu
Tinggal aku sendiri terpaku menatap langit
Barangkali di sana ada jawabnya
Mengapa di tanahku terjadi bencana
Mungkin Tuhan mulai bosan melihat tingkah kita
Yang selalu salah dan bangga dengan dosa-dosa
Atau alam mulai enggan bersahabat dengan kita
Coba kita bertanya pada rumput yang bergoyang

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake was a magnitude 9.0 undersea earthquake on December 26, 2004 which generated tsunamis that caused one of the deadliest natural disasters in modern history.

This rare type of earthquake known as a megathrust earthquake struck at 00:58:53 UTC (07:58:53 local time) in the Indian Ocean off the western coast of northern Sumatra, Indonesia. It was the largest earthquake on Earth since the 9.2-magnitude Good Friday Earthquake of 1964, and tied for fourth largest since 1900.

The tsunamis devastated the shores of Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India, Thailand and other countries with waves of up to 15 m in height. Even the east coast of Africa (especially Somalia) was hit, despite being located 4,500 km (2,800 mi) or more west of the epicentre.

On 26 Dec 2004, we,as humanbeing have to take our responsibility for making Nature angry. Maybe the nature remind us...for not always make a war, hurting nature, and also another, bomb everywhere, playing with the death, playing with innocent life, acting like a God who has a right to take somebody life.

Let's taking some break and realizing what we had done before.Nature give us a chance for help one another through this disaster. Nature was boring with all damages we had done,all of the racist thing that we done in the name of God. God make no differences between us.Australian,English,Indonesian, Malaysian,Chinese,Korean,Indian, etc.We all the same in God eyes. How bout if we appreciate what God has in His mind and not to make Him angry? Just make a peace inside our heart so there will be no jealous feeling among us.

Waterfalls

Time to refresing.. ^^ Today I go to Nangkajajar Waterfall, but brownies waterfall is all we got (maybe because it's rainy season). This time the team member are Bus,Panci,Mut,and Pyor. Then, after burning a little of our fat while we walk in the jungle, we continued our journey to Batu. We eat "bakso" and drink "KUD milk". After we have more power, we go to Coban Rondo Waterfall. It's clean and cold!!! Satisfied and tired we stoped for a while on Pujon before we back to Surabaya.

MOrE Stressedd Out....

Today I have a big meeting in the office. The meeting that I've been waiting for about this last 2 months because it promised to bring another future for me.Because it's sound so democratic.Because it promised that we can choose another future for ALL of us.ALL!!!

So what happens today? Once again I see that there must be black sheep on something. And unlucky that's ME as one of the blacksheep.Congratulation!! Damn! Why I'm waiting for something that sound so nice? I told myself : you the one who's so stupid for hoping so much!

Yeah...here I'm once again,stuck!!! Without knowing what will happen next?Cause it's just a beginning!

STressed oUttt!!!

Been so busy these couple week...working in pain and tired eyes,tired hands,tired butt. I know I can...but I'm still so unmotivated if I remembered that I working my ass on the bullshit things. The system that said different thing to every different people here. I'll give you whatever you want and just shut up then!!

Leaving

After 2 weeks here on Surabaya, Yuky back to Bali (after canceled 3 times^^).I can't really accompanies her because it's during the workday,but I did it as long as I can.
Going to some places,meeting the other friends and also Melly Balikpapan.

Yuka has already come back to Bali last week... talk to her on the phone^^ wondering when will I go to Bali? Hope on January ?

Hey ...just go back to work!

My Brain Usage

Your Brain Usage Profile:

Auditory : 29%
Visual : 70%
Left : 36%
Right : 63%

Lusida, you possess an interesting balance of hemispheric and sensory characteristics, with a slight right-brain dominance and a slight preference for visual processing.

Since neither of these is completely centered, you lack the indecision and second-guessing associated with other patterns. You have a distinct preference for creativity and intuition with seemingly sufficient verbal skills to be able to translate in any meaningful way to yourself and others.

You tend to see things in "wholes" without surrendering the ability to attend to details. You can give them sufficient notice to be able to utitlize and incorporate them as part of an overall pattern.

In the same way, while you are active and process information simultaneously, you demonstrate a capacity for sequencing as well as reflection which allows for some "inner dialogue."

All in all, you are likely to be quite content with yourself and your style although at times it will not necessarily be appreciated by others. You have sufficient confidence to not second-guess yourself, but rather to use your critical faculties in a way that enhances, rather than limits, your creativity.

You can learn in either mode although far more efficiently within the visual mode. It is likely that in listening to conversations or lecture materials you simultaneously translate into pictures which enhance and elaborate on the meaning.

It is most likely that you will gravitate towards those endeavors which are predominantly visual but include some logic or structuring. You may either work particularly hard at cultivating your auditory skills or risk "missing out" on being able to efficiently process what you learn. Your own intuitive skills will at times interfere with your capacity to listen to others, which is something else you may need to take into account.

Life and Belief

Last Saturday my bestfriend send a short message,told me that she is positive. hhehehe she is pregnant.Congratulation!So her child will be the first junior in our community and our first niece.

Then suddenly this bad news come, my bestfriend on her test result was positive on some virus,it's not bad for her but for the baby. I hope that she can manage her life and also the baby's seriously on this present time. And when it's time to choose, just listen to her heart which better for her life,her husband's,and also her child's not just because her belief. But it's all depend on her and her husband. I just can pray ask 4 the best for their family.

Me and My Camera

It can save all memories in our lifetime...
From the time we're born until the end of our time in this world
All of the good memories and also the bad

Sometimes I just wondering,actually is it me or just my camera that people longing for??
