  • Homo Sapiens

    Make my stand.

    I believe, we’re all the same. Humans. Homo Sapiens. I don’t agree with any classification among us. I believe that actually there’s no need to divide human into 2 types, male and female. The habit of human to classify other living things shall not extended to classify homo sapiens any further.

    Realize this : human (homo sapien), has been a result of this classification:
    Kingdom: Animalia
    Phylum: Chordata
    Subphylum: Vertebrata

    Class: Mammalia
    Subclass: Theria

    Infraclass: Eutheria
    Order: Primates

    Suborder: Anthropoidea
    Superfamily: Hominoidea
    Family: Hominidae

    Genus: Homo

    Species: Sapiens

    After such a long list of SEGREGATION, how come we need to classify Sapiens into Male “or” Female. Black or White. Smart or Dumb. Any stupid classification is NOT necessary.

    Homo sapiens may fall in love with any living thing (or whatever), they can fall in love with roses, cats, etc. But, to be more accepted by common sense (as cat don’t fall in love with chicken), maybe homo sapiens will be only fall in love with another homo sapiens. Male or Female. Black or White. American or African.
    Name everything, we’re all still homo sapiens.

    No further classification needed.We need to realise that we’re all human. Homo Sapiens. We’re all come from the same Suborder with monkey, orang utan, gorilla. There’s no point of thinking that one has a higher degree.

    Fall in love as you like..
    That’s my stand.

  • Wonder – Be With You

    Lately, i never know why, but i keep thinking of the purpose of life. I sometimes do wonder and wander about it. I once told my good-friend that i am kind of “result-driven” person, i can only accomplish something if i can think of what’s in the other end. Not result oriented, but result driven.

    Taking the note into Life (with capital L) same thing occurs. What is the purpose of this Life then? I couldn’t at least think of one. What the hell am i thinking? But can you think of one, at least? Tell me!

    Life’s short, my man. If life has no purpose, than life must be only a scene of experiencing. Dont ask me experiencing for what. I dont know (yet). Like Alphaville’s Forever Young, “…sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip…“. We ain’t gonna live forever.
    It’s a short trip.
    A 118 minutes of rolling movie.
    A shot
    from a gun.
    From the first time you know your parent, to the last day that you want to forget everything. What’s beyond is a mystery.

    I watched a japanese movie last week. Be With You. It’s a damn good movie. It is so good that i have no plan to return it soon. Haha. It’s a big hit in 2004 in Japan. Watching the movie, you’ll learn that maybe life’s is NOT about looking for that purpose(s) i’ve mentioned earlier.
    Perhaps, all is about experiencing.
    A slice of your life.
    A package of images from a large set of it.
    A chapter of the novel.
    Love stories.
    Your sadness.
    The day you achieve your dream. Or the day you break the rules.
    The day you cross the line. The day you ended.

    All the slices, slices, slices.
    Repackaged at the end.
    And later, you forget.
    You forget, amazingly.

  • Encrypted?

    Sometimes, i just dont really get the point why people ‘encrypted’ their message. I think this is a “betrayal to character”. Those people had already invented character as much as 26. A to Z. That’s a lott! A bit game: can you come out with a new character for our language?

    Why must people encrypted like that?

    Talking about encryption, my good friend has one of the worst hand-writing. Sometimes, sometimes, he cant even remember what’s been written! He called it ‘encryption’. Unfortunately, it is sometimes un-retrievable. Haha 🙂

    Note: to elizabeth, hehe… its only an example of encryption.

  • Mouse

    I was planning to buy a new mouse for my laptop this morning. And of course, like any regular office-guy, the first thing you would do is to browse for more information online. How much, what the type, brands, etc.
    I roamed a lot in bhineka.com, and found above message, haha. Funny. That’s a price-tag for a pda-phone.

    I decided to buy a regular optical mouse. Apparently, wireless one will cost me 400% of the wired mouse. So, hmm.. must save money.

    My last mouse has been broken since weeks ago. Some troubles with the wheel and clicks.

    Quality has a great correlation with Price. In ideal world, they shall have no positive correlation.
    But, hmmm… until now, still cant find a great-great product with a low-low price. Remember the phone i got last year, it’s already broken. Hhhh…

    From the left graphic can you imagine what do you get from cheap or low-cost medical service?

  • The Bet

    Haha… just had a deal with my mate about Brazil vs France, quarterfinal of World Cup 2006! 🙂 Must win this time! C’mon Kaka!
