Happy Family

Mirip siapa?

Akhirnya Owen Raphael Rasmono kemarin keluar dari tempat persembunyiannya setelah hampir satu minggu di selidiki keberadaannya oleh pihak yang berwenang.

Hehehhee,another baby has come. Why I feel so old now?

Different Path

Stay back please...It doesn't work this way.
We have a very different way to go.
Stay back please...You better go now.
Take the plane and leave

I'll stay here with my dear dolphins
Swimming in this lonely and secluded beach
Drink this heavenly water
Dream my own dream
Sleep with thousands of stars hug me
Protect me from the storm

Just go now before it's too late.
Before U fall in love to the beauty of this island
And trapped here before U exploring
Thousands of big and beautiful city that you're looking for.

About Anarchist

Don't u wondering about how can Law of Nature still happens here?
In this big and metropolitan city?

Do we have a lot of wild and uneducated animal among us? We can meet them in our office,street,government office,campus,mall,market,everywhere even in our house.When they're angry or not satisfied then there'll be a riot. They're more aggressive and wild than our pet in home.

Do U have some way to feed them all? They're unlimited and you just hv your both hand.What'll you do if they can't feed themselves,they can't help U hunting even it's for them,and they also can't calm down and back U up. They just shout and force U to your limit and maybe they'll eat U if u're not feed them as soon as they want. They ruin everything in their way even the trees that standing still on the side in silent.

Now,can U say? Are we live in a big city or just in a wild nature???

Cinderella ?

Should all of us being like this one of the lifetime fairy tale icon? I don't think so...and I'm very agree with this song. I'll depend of myself before I find the key to man of my dreams's heart.

Cinderella by Tata Young

When I was just a little girl
My momma used to tuck me into bed and she read me a story
It always was about a Princess in distress
And how a guy would save her and end up with the glory

I'd lie in bed and think about the person that I wanted to be
Then one day I realized the fairy tale life wasn't for me

[Chorus]
I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sittin' in a dark old dusty cellar
Waiting for somebody, to come and set me free
I don't wanna be like Snow White waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white, unless we're riding side by side
Don't want to depend on no-one else
I'd rather rescue myself

Someday I'm gonna find someone who wants my soul, heart and mind
Who's not afraid to show that he loves me
Somebody who will understand I'm happy just the way I am Don't need nobody taking care of me

I will be there for him just as strong as he, will be there for me
When I give myself then it has got to be, an equal thing

[Chorus]

I can slay, my own dragon
I can dream, my own dreams
My knight in shining armour is me
So I'm gonna set me free

Happy Birthday to me :-)

Hummm so lazy to write lately....but today I feel that I'm in the mood of write something because today's so special to me. Yeah...today is my birthday.A quarter of century.Being 25.

25 years of my life and still
I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this
Brotherhood of man
For whatever that means

Some sms from lovely friends wherever they are, some phonecall, some e-mail from long lost friend,all of my colleagues and boss who celebrating it with me, dinner with family,and another dinner with my dear old friends (yeah...I'm sooo full :p) are brighten this day. A warm smile, wishes and congratulation words make it very special.Some surprise present also make it wonderful.


My colleagues and I

Second Dinner :p

Thanks to all of you my friends....wherever you are.I really appreciate all of your attention. I feel blessed cause u still remembering me that way.

Key of Love

The only problem is everything I'm looking for,
Is there in you
Lock there and become a treasure
Everyone trying to find and have it
Where did U put the key
To your treasure island?
Will I find it?

--Me--

Lilik's Poem

Oh beautiful sea
Do take me
To thy wonderful journey
Beyond what eyes can see
I promise to obey thee
And never be weak
Just one guarantee
Not to ever desert me
----Ave----

Maybe this is the end?

Remember about my decision to take both ways in front of my life lately? To work both on my parent's office in the morning and also at the beloved Excellogix office at noon until night(where I got my first job until now).Maybe I should end up one of them (the nice and friendly one)??

Yesterday my boss announced that they will close the night shift on September because of some reason. Then?? For my future,it's definetly I hv to choose to work on my family company.Oh Excellogix, You don't give me another choice again this time.You close your shiny way for me?Hummm I don't know what should I do,but for now, all I can see it's mean goodbye for me.

Hoaaaaa???Than what should I do at night?I'm not used to have so much free time.

Like Old Days

Tonight, the routine May Fiesta that we,ve been celebrate for some years was held. It's to honor some of almost half of the '98 gank birthday. The hosts/hostesses : DJ+Ardi,Vei+Hen,Pauw+Jovita,C'Lun. And tonight,maybe the last May Fiesta we have (who knows?).Next year will gonna be a lot of changes.Ardi-Dj will be busy with their child.Mut will live in Japan with her husband(even it's still unbelievable).Vei-Hen uhmm who knows? I'll be the one who still here maybe??

A lot of changes between us, especially with one of us. He choose not to come to this celebration because of no reason but the price of the food??? Hey man,do u really the one I know in that old day? Do u know that sometimes I also don't feel comfortable when I hv to come to this kind of celebration? Especially tonight when I am the only single there.But, come on they've some footprints in our life.We cross our path since we're nothing but a student.

Am Back
To where I used to belong
The quiet small room
Which used to be teh center
Of the whole world around
Flash of memory
Come and go constantly
Lugubrious joy
Grorious sadness
Such an overwhelming feeling
It has never been forgotten
Will never be
Why did we ever let go?
Because we have to move on...
-----Ave-----

All of u must be know where is it guys...Let's move on but please don't forget about this old Friendship story in this old dusty book.

About Marriage

Lately I'm wondering what's the meaning of marriage for today people?
Lately I'm wondering what's inside those couple marriage people mind when they like to have a baby even their condition isn't supported?
Lately I'm wondering what's the meaning of couple?
Lately I'm wondering what's the meaning of the phrase "....in good and bad time until die do us apart..." when a couple do the marriage ceremony in front of the church?
Lately I'm wondering should we marriage as soon as possible no matter what?
Lately I'm wondering is marriage just a joke,to get what we're dreaming on?
Lately I'm wondering is it that bad to be a single these days,before u find the right person to marriage?
Lately I'm wondering is it just a matter of a piece of legal paper?

I'm not an expert, I'm just wondering...

A little Poem...

Captain oh Captain
Don't come please don't come
Sail away oh sail away

I've already settle down here
Don't invite me to sail again with u
Just because you lost your crew
I've been build my house
Protect me from rain and storm

I know it's empty
But a lot of friends come and go here
I haven't sailing again since our last journey
Am I afraid of the seasick?
Am I waiting for another ship?

Sail away oh sail away
Captain oh Captain
Should I or shouldn't I go with U
Will I find another ship come to this harbour?

Lamongan-Tuban-Bojonegoro Journey

Last Friday was a holiday in my Alto office. So,this time my travelling partners and I decided to go to Tuban and some places around it.Jadi kita coba lewat tol Sby-Gresik jurusan Manyar. Kluar dari Manyar kita tinggal jalan lurus aja mengikuti jalan besar itu. Sekitar 2 jam dari Sby kita sudah sampai di Gua Maharani and Wisata Bahari Lamongan (Tanjung Kodok)yang berseberangan. Karena matahari masih menyengat kita putusin masuk gua dulu. Untung sekali waktu kita didalem cuman ada sekitar 6 orang.Uda puas tembak sana sini (baca=foto2) kita keluar nyebrang ke WBL.

Di WBL kita hanya membayar tiket yang terbatas(hanya bisa memainkan beberapa wahana gratis) seharga Rp 15.000,- . Bagi yang ingin memainkan semua wahana (sekitar 26 wahana)di dalam bisa membayar tiket terusan seharga Rp 35.000,- .Disana ada jetski,kano,bumper boat,bumpercar,go-kart,motocross,rumah sakit hantu,taman air,taman kaca,kolam renang,restaurant,museum kapal dan kerang, n masih banyak lagi deh.Kita kelilingi lokasi wisata itu sampai pukul 17.00 WIB dan kita sudah diharuskan untuk keluar karena lokasi akan ditutup.Tetap saja acara tembak menembak camera blum puas terlaksana.Note : WBL ini pantas untuk dikunjungi

Kita lanjutin perjalanan menuju Tuban.Setelah sampai di kotanya,sambil jalan sembari kita mencari hotel yang cukup murah.Lalu dari rekomendasi beberapa orang Hotel Ratna di jalan Ronggolawe adalah yg disarankan.Setelah berkeliling beberapa lama kami putuskan untuk makan seafood dulu di jalan Panglima Sudirman (di sebelah toko Ana).Perlu diingat bahwa Tuban memberlakukan jalan satu arah alias kalo terlewat kita harus balik lagi satu putaran panjang lewat jalan Basuki Rahmat :( Kita makan diiringi bunyi ombak di lautan di seberang kita.

Akhirnya kita putusin check-in di Ratna. Kita ambil 1 kmr besar double bed+AC+km mandi+TV Rp 100.000,- untuk Gbus,Hertong,Panci,Jus and I and 1 kmr kecil 2singgle bed+AC+Km mandi+Tv Rp 85.000,- buat Bo n Yeyen. Setelah mandi semua sekitar pk 00.00 kita putusin kluar bentar liat Masjid di Alun2 yang unik and "rencananya" ke tepi Pantai duduk2 n ngobrol di barengi deburan ombak n mungkin minum apa yang hangat.Blarrrr batal deh, cuman hanya karna ketakutan yang tak beralasan dari bbrp orang.Ya uda, sebel abis puter jauh2 ternyata cuman mau lewat tepi pantai (yang entah udah brapa kali kita lewati)yg bener aja. Pulang dah.... bobok!

Paginya kita brangkat ke Nglirip.Kalo dari Tuban kita ke arah Montong.Akhirnya kita sampe kurang lebih 2 jam perjalanan.Nga rugi juga ternyata air terjun di Nglirip ini keren juga.Sekali lagi kita diberkati.Tak ada seorangpun disana,tidak panas n tidak hujan.Siiiipppp.....

Akhirnya kita pulang lewat Bojonegoro daripada kita balek lagi ke Tuban.Waiting for the next trip...

What's the meaning of Adventure?

ad·ven·ture

1. An undertaking or enterprise of a hazardous nature.
2. An undertaking of a questionable nature, especially one involving intervention in
another state's affairs.
3. An unusual or exciting experience
4. To take a risk; dare.
5. To proceed despite risks.

It means that if we're not a risk taker don't take a risk by being an explorer,a pioneer who's always hungry to explore a new place and longing to be close to the nature. Risk taker doesn't means that he/she is a blind person who want to suicide or hurt themself without preparation or blind knowledge about the place. An adventurer preparing themselves for the worse risk but doesn't mean that they want to find troubles.

Good Luck ...

On a day like today
a young lady feels sad
For she knew the time
has come to leave
this limbo of joy and
belonging and return to the
far lonely world elsewhere.

Bravely, she forced
a smile at her friends
Without much of a second look,
she bid them farewell.

Unconsciously,
a faint smile ghosted at her mouth.
'I'll see them again soon.
Take care, my friend,
I'll be back.

(adopted from Melvin Lee Poem)

"Good Luck","See U" being my favorite word lately. Now,I hv to say it once again to a friend of mine n once again....she's my "neighbour", my officemate, and one of my travelling partner.

Have to give applaus for her because she's willing to take decision for her live even she has no idea what will she do for her life except being an artist right now.As long as you happy with your decision I'm happy for U Pal. Try your best n Gud Luck!

I know that life's full of choices.This year a lot of choices has been made by some of my friends and I. Maybe I hv to say that words once again in August to one of my bestfriend who choose to take her scholarship to Washington D.C. After some time,she decided to take it and leave her job at EF and also her boyfriend here.

C Ya, fren...

Friends Forever
© Mariah Hinshaw

We will be friends forever
Amigos, buddies, pals
Where you are, I’ll be
No matter how many miles
We will be friends forever
No matter how many mistakes you or I make
Because as long we are friends
There’s nothing we couldn’t take
We will be friends forever
No matter where we’ll be
Because when we leave one another behind
You’ll be in the heart of me
We will be friends forever
No matter how old we are
Because when you’re friends forever
You’ll never be too far

About Trust...

"Loe boleh nga percaya sama orang,tapi kalo loe nga percaya ama orang yang sayang dgn tulus sama loe itu beda,itu sama dengan penghianatan" (Tentang Dia, Melly Goeslaw)

Menurutku kepercayaan itu sangat tinggi nilainya. Pernikahan didasarkan atas kepercayaan.Persahabatan didasarkan atas kepercayaan.Pembagian pekerjaan didasarkan atas kepercayaan. Semuanya berawal dari sebuah perasaan percaya sehingga terbentuklah suatu hubungan atau interaksi dengan sesama manusia.

Kepercayaan yang tinggi kepada kita menunjukkan bahwa harga kita di mata orang lain itu adalah tinggi juga. Oleh karena itu kepercayaan ini haruslah di jaga dengan baik. Agar supaya kita juga dihargai dengan tinggi di mata orang lain.
Apalagi kalau kita merusak kepercayaan orang terdekat kita, seperti kata film itu, itu bisa dikatakan mirip dengan penghianatan. Selain nilai kita jatuh, kita juga melukai teman,sahabat,istri,suami,atau saudara kita yang mempercayai kita.

Desiderata

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste,
and remember waht peace there may be in silence.
As fas as possible without surrender be on good tems with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and ignorant; they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons,they are vexatious to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career,however humble;
it is a real possesion in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your bussiness affairs;for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;
and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be Yourself.
Especially do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is a perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years,gracefully surrendering the thingsof youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God,whatever you concieve Him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations,in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.
With all its sham,drudgery and broken dreams,it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.Strive to be happy.

---Max Ehrmann---
