There are three types of people in this world:
those who make things happen,
those who watch things happen,
and those who wonder what happened.

I think i’m 10% “number 1”, 40 “number 2”, and 50% “number 3” :p Haha.
Anyway, there’s nothing wrong being the number one, number two, or number three, right? Which one are you?
Do you remember when you were about junior/senior high school, we used to put a written paper like ‘Aku Orang Gila’, or whatever, behind the back of our friends?
Do you remember when we were about that age, we like to put gum on a bench, so the next person sat there will ‘suffer’?
Do you remember all those tricks?
And now, ask your friends, who was not at the same school or not lived in the same town. Mostly, they did the same tricks too!! And, i wonder HOW. We had no internet connection to check what tricks students in Jakarta have or Surabaya have, or etc. But amazingly, we’re all using the same tricks! Nobody teached nobody. Nobody spread the tricks to all the school in Indonesia. So, how?
Any explanation?
Quite fun trying my pal’s camera (Nikon). Like the clicking sound of it.
Zooming, focusing, adjusting, stay still, focused, click!
Look at how i performed above-mentioned task!
Not bad huh? Haha.
Maybe, can later become a photo-journalist, hmmm… but must start with photo-blogging instead (which i dont really have the passion to start right now).
Anyway, just feel really refreshed, after pulang-kampung for couple of days. Pekanbaru. A fast growing town. Really fast.
About 8 years ago, when my friends ask me to ‘jalan-jalan’, it really meant we’re on ‘jalan’, roamed around the streets. But now, when they say ‘jalan-jalan’, it could means malls (and we have to ask: ‘jalan-jalan’ which mall?). Nah..that fast!
The only thing I regretted in my home-town is a new statue around Simpang Komersial Arengka. Imagine you eat something very very very bad, and you regret you have put that damn thing in your mouth, and you later call it “mouth-killer”. And the statue i mentioned above is an “eye-killer”. I regret i’ve ever seen such an ugly thing with my eyes. :))
Overall, pay a visit to Pekanbaru, and feel the heartbeat of growing Sumatra…. And maybe, you can experience one of my shoot with my pal’s Nikon!
Just realised there’re many things to find (or to entertain self) in friendster. I found a joke:
An Arab was being interviewed at a US checkpoint.
‘Your name please?
“Abdul Aziz ”
“Sex? ”
“Six times a week!! ”
“No, no, I mean male or female! ”
“Doesn’t matters, sometimes even camel !”

EIGHT. Are you happy with your life right now ?
Why not? Are you not happy?
NINE. Anyone ever said you resemble a celebrity?:

ELEVEN. Do you shop at stores like Hollister, Abercrombie & Fitch?
None.
TWELVE. How do you make babies?
Fertilisation or fertilization (also known as conception, fecundation and syngamy) is fusion of gametes to form a new organism of the same species. In animals, the process involves a sperm fusing with an ovum, which eventually leads to the development of an embryo. Depending on the animal species, the process can occur within the body of the female in internal fertilisation, or outside in the case of external fertilisation.

You are young, my son, and, as the years go by, time will change
and even reverse many of your present opinions.
Refrain therefore awhile from setting yourself up as a judge of the highest matters.
