  • Liquido

    Hmm… body still not okay. Ate lots of fruits yesterday, banana, orange. Not to mention, carrot, pumpkins.. Errr.. and a bit of meat! Hehe.. cant resist the ‘dendeng balado’. Go to office today, editing some training modules, sending some mails. Hope to get well soon, must go to Semarang tomorrow morning.

    Oh yes, just bought Prambors Hits Vol 3 and feel so good to be able to listen to Ordinary Life (Liquido) and Cruisin’ (Sioen). Just love these 2 songs. Never heard of Liquido? You can try it by following this link, download clip of Ordinary Life! If interested, just LimeWire-ing! Hehe.

    what has come of you
    fadin´ into gloom
    blackening everything that we achieved
    thought I felt a kill
    an underrated skill
    catching but heavily quite a disease
    givin´ some crap
    it is to show you where my head is at
    it´s but a shame
    this is some
    ordinary life

     

  • Quite Meaningful


    “Why be something to everybody when you can be everything to somebody?”

    Don’t know where I am, don’t know where I’ve been
    But I know where I want to go

  • Taking Risk

    Been thinking a lottt lately about ‘taking risk’. Sometimes, I sense that the risk is too high to take, but sometime Pablo’s words awake me about doing things that i’ve already doubt.

    I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it.

    Samuel Johnson also has already commented that I shall not think too much about the risks, about the objections, about the obstacles, just put yourself into it, do the best!

    Nothing will ever be attempted, if all possible objections must be first overcome.

    Samuel Johnson, 1759.


    Hmmm… 🙂 It’s not easy, really. Taking risk. Some says ‘no pain no gain’, but too much pain will later kill us, dont you think so. Recently, a man (French) sues casino that let him lose £500,000! See,.. we can learn from that case, that once we decided to go for that WIN, prepare and anticipate the potential LOSS. Hard? You bet!

    Don’t know where I am, don’t know where I’ve been

  • Does he?

    I sometimes do wonder, does he wonder about how tomorrow will be… 🙂

  • Act Your Age

    Fortunately, in my kind of job, I’ve been given a valuable opportunity to meet a lot people from different countries. As I can remember, no matter how short or long the contact exist, from only 5 minutes talk to maybe months of working together, with Singaporean, Malaysian, Thai, American, French, UK, Australian, Japanese, (yeah… not a very long list, as you can tell hehe).

    I’ve learned the way they do business, the way they work with others, and one common similarity I can see from my point of view as their consultant or their partner is “they never ask me about how old I am, never ask me about where I’ve graduated, never ask me about what degree I hold”.

    Yes, none of them EVER asked me about those things. But, when I met an Indonesian clients, you can bet that they will ask you and judge you based on those things. Does it matter? Well, f*** I never give a damn!

    Not saying I am an experienced person, not saying that I know many things, BUT I believe most of Indonesian just can’t differ “experienced” with “old”. So pathetic! When they know my age, they will act like, “..o please, you dont need to let me know that..”, or “..how can you know things more, when I live longer than you..”.

    People, please forget about how old they are, or how young they are, JUST ACT YOUR AGE! Care nothing about other’s! Respect each others!
