  • Approaching the End of Life, A Note from Critical Care Unit.

    We’re all approaching the opposite end, aren’t we? Born with laughter, when joy was all around. But as we’re growing further, taking life for granted, laughing at life, taking everything personal,…suddenly here we are at the very end of life tube.

    This is a death row. The only row we are at!

    When we’re approaching the end, the question is always “what is next?”. So, what is next?

    What this life is all about? What kind of emotion matter? What is with all the hate and love? We’re vanishing… Do you remember the time you yell at your parents when they didn’t give you what you wanted? Do you remember the one time where you cheated your friend?

    Do you remember the few times you bad mouthing others? Or the time you embarassed others?

    So, what is next? What this 24 hrs a day is all about? What deed and what evil matter? Why were we here at the very first place? Were we meant as a joy to others? And now we are their sadness?

    What a life. Life is once, live it.

  • Roma win (again)! 🙂

    AS Roma win (again!). A fantastic run of over 20 unbeaten games! Certainly we are going somewhere. Inter Milan may slip, and there is ill giallorossi ready to take the final first place, scudetto!! Its been a while since 2001, 9 years ago. I remember cheering every game of Roma, a fantastic season back then!

    Are we there (again)? I hope so! Forza Giallorosso!

  • My Full Name: Revealed!!

    It’s been a “while” that people ask me about my FULL name. Either for curiousity, or for something as important as whether to let me pass the immigration gate or not. I got troubled everytime I enter Singapore, I always need to be interviewed by immigration officers in a small room, under pairs of staring eyes.

    Now I think it’s best to come up with one!

    My last name is Suharno, my father’s. And not only that, my middle name is now SSCX. 😀

  • Lesson Learned from Fitness First’s RPM Class

    I learned few things! Actually this is a Art of War from RPM Class (not the other way around! :p)
    Here they are:

    1. It’s probably the hardest thing to do in FF Gym! 🙁 so, prepare yourself well before you joint for the very first time! Lesson: know the war field, prepare yourself. Going to war without the knowledge will kill you!

    2. I then finished the session, but it is more because of ego rather than my physical strength. I certainly don’t want to go out from that cycling studio with every eyes on me :p. Lesson: your own ego will bring you to another level. If you go to war, pump your ego, be arrogant even to yourself there you’ll find something beyond your known strength!

    3. I got the emotional spirit from the instructor. He kept screaming: “you want to lose fat! you want to lose fat” :p and “come on! You told me to bring it on! Now I bring it on! I see you on the top!” Haha. Fun! Lesson: you need someone to energize you in a war. Find a friend, find a spiritual figure, find a motivator.

    4. If the cycling studio is only 3 person, it will give you less sensation of team achievement. We all know achieving something together is far better! Lesson: in a war, prepare a row of troops on your side, see they win, show them you can win too, fight together win together, celebrate together!

    5. I keep a bowl of ramen in my imagination. I told my self, if I finish this session, the bowl of ramen is mathematically less calories than what I’ve spent in this session. It kept me going! Lesson: ramen is nice!

    That’s 5 lessons I’ve learned in my FitnessFirst’s RPM Class! Cheers! :p

  • A Chance from Idol Show

    I am not a big fans of American Idol, (any idols show incl Indonesian Idol are never as good as the American). I don’t really think all the stars (idols winners) are finally a super soloist. Except Kelly Clarkson, none are my favorite. But, I always enjoy watching the earlier part of a season, I think what interest me the most is about the show giving everybody a chance. As long as you want to, you can have a chance. Regardless you go through the next round or simply a fool on TV. Don’t you guys agree that is exactly what everybody needs? A Chance.
