is it possible?
Is it possible? Does it worth my effort to wait? Maybe not. But who knows? That other party may make it come true. I have to be logical though. How many miles away? Yeah, I am right. Let's just call it a day. But wait,... it's not rupiahs, right? It's dollars! That will make it possible. RIght? Right? Right? Are you that charming, je? Naaaa.
nabraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak
Gw lagi jalan sama temen nih. And di jalan pulang (malem jam 10an) gw nyetir motornya dia ngelewatin Jl. Imam Bonjol (gw paksa dia nganterin gw pulang. LOL). Ternyata di jalan itu lagi ada perbaikan. Jalan yang uda g lebar jadi tambah sempit lagi karena serasa dikurangin setengah kan. Nah,...di perbaikan itu, banyak banget cone cone oranye kayak logo VLC. Saking serunya gw ngobrol di jalan ma temen gw--sampe kepala gw noleh2 ke belakang gt deh--akhirnya gw cium lah salah satu cone itu!!!
Kehebohan pun terjadi. Seluruh penduduk Menteng keluar dan histeris! Sementara gw ketawa terkikik-kikik g jelas. FYI, ketawa gw emang g jelas. LOL. Seru deh malem itu. At least itu oendapat gw. G tau deh pendapat temen gw apa secara waktu itu kan kita pake motornya. LOL
my dreams on my bed
Long time ago this year I sent a book to a publisher. I got turned down. I sent it to another publisher and the same thing happened. And for the thrid time, (which some say a charm) it got a No No again. Now, that book is lying down on my bed. Personally I love that book (which writers say the other way around about theirs, anw?). And I feel sad looking at my dream--who have helped me lose 20kgs just kying down there. I know i should not give up. But a part of me says that I have lost "it". I just hope that "it" comes back to me and make me band new to start all over again. Pray for me :)
Changing states of mind
I had to give some training session in my company. And from the sessions I learn one thing: It's easier to brainwash people woth something new instead of changing their current state of mind and (especially) beliefs!!!
After that hard training session, I decided to reward myself an extra lunch box :)
PUBLIC ENEMY--the movie
Gw baru aja kelar nonton PUBLIC ENEMY. Itu judul film yang dimaenin sma Johny Depp and Christian Bale. My first impression of this movie is,....COOL!!! My second and next impressions: COOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!
Coolnya apanya seh? Tonton aja deh. Lo serasa bener2 dibawa ke masa lalu tahun 60an. Sedikit cerita ya. jaman itu kan Amerika lagi krisis duit tuh. Nah,...sekelompok orang yang dipimpin Johny Depp itu kerjaannya ngerampok bank2 disana. Walaupun tukang rampok,...si Depp sopan banget. Kayak karakter Robin Hood deh!
Film ini dari buku, loh. Bryan Burrough--pengarangnya--nyeritain tentang agen FBI yang dimaininn si Bale dalam usahanya nangkep si Johnny Depp. Itu kisah nyata!!! Cool abis deh.
Settingnya film ini jelas jadi attraction banget buat audience yang suka film2 lama. Jujur,...gw uda siap2 bobo di bioskop coz pas nonton gw cuaaaaaaaaappppppeeeeeeeeeeeek banget. Tapi ngikutin hal-hal menarik di cerita itu, mata gw jadi melek aj terus. Tuh karakter2 di film itu konsisten banget ma perannya. Cara si Johnny Depp ngedeketin salah satu cewek harus ditiru deh. Rada ngibul tapi logis and romantis. Hebat banget deh. Belum lagi karakter si Bale yang kuuuuuuuueeeeeeeeeekuuuuuueeeeh mau nangkep si Depp. Adaaaa aja ya cerita2 yang kayak gitu.
Jalur ceritanya g begitu lama and bertele2. Jelas abis and yang perlu diacungin jempol gw (FYI: Jempol gw gede2) adalah visualisasi selama film. Lo bakal dimanjain sama keautentikan setting di tahun 60an. Serasa nonton ama emak2 and babe2 kita!!!
Kalo lo suka action yang raw abisssss, tonton deh film ini. Kalo lo g puas juga, coba lo minta duit lo balik dari si tukang bisokopnya. Paling yang ada lo ditembak kayak adegan2 bising nan perfect di film itu. LOL
The Hands of God in the elevator
Kantor gw kan g tinggi2 amat--cuman enam lantai. Gw ngantor di lantai 5 and sering naek turun dari dan ke lantai 6. Hari ini ada kejadian yang g bakal gw lupain selama jadi the crawler di antara dua lantai itu.
Gw masuk ke lift nih dari lantai 5 mau ke lantai 6. Tapi ternyata keduluan ada yang mencet jadi lift itu turun dulu ke lantai 4. Masuklah si bapak2 chinese (bukan maksud rasial, cuman emang ada hubungannya ama postingan gw) yang mau turun ke lantai 1. Tapi g tau gimana ceritanya,...tau2 itu lift naek dulu ke lantai 6 and bukannya turun. Itu kan menentang perundang-undangan lift sedunia. Uda aneh kan itu?
Yang aneh lagi, apa yang kejadian di dalem lift itu. Waktu itu ada gw, seorang janitor berkulit kepala klimis and si Bapak. Dia kekeh mencet tombol nomor satu. Nah, buat apa juga coba? Toh lift itu bakal naek dulu nganterin gw baru trus turun nganterin dia. Komentarlah gw:
"Naek dulu nih, Pak."
(dengan tetep kekeh mencet tombol satu untuk kedua kalinya) "Jadi tangan ke atas, ya?"
Langsunglah gw and si janitor itu noleh kedia.
"Iya, Pak?"
"Kan naek dulu. Gak turun. Tangannya ke atas. kayak tangan Tuhan. Kan tangan Tuhan sempat ke bawah and jadi setan kan?"
Dueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeng!!!!!
Gw masang satu2nya tampang bego (satu2nya yang gw punyai) dong! Apalagi si janitor. Bego2 semua deh di dalem lift kecuali si Bapak. Trus si Bapak memeberikan kuliah agamanya sampai gw nyampe ke lantai 6. Gw keluar and langsung masuk ke ruang training dengan pikiran2 yang penasaran. Dalam ati gw janji bakal ngebrowse Hands of God di Wikipedia. Keren juga ternyata. LIat deh. Klik di sini, ya.!
Je VS Tukang Pijet
Judulnya uda self-explanatory kan?
Gw hari ini maen badminton trus renang n trus pijit. Sengaja pilih di tuna netra sekalian amal (pameeeeeeeeeeeeeer). Rebahan lah gw dengan gedenya dong!!! Ddan mulailah jurus2 tak terbayangkan yang dilancarkan si tukang pijit.
Asli sakit banget but I kno thats what I need. Uda enak ni di tengah2 pijit sampe dai mulai basa-basi tanya soal kerjaan. Ternyata gw salah!!! Dia gak basa-basi!!!
Yang ada dia ngritik habis2an perusahaan gw. Bilang kalo sekarang uda gak sepopuler dulu lah,...bilang kurang promosi lah, bilang manajemennya buruk lah. Selama setengah proses pijit terkahir, gw cuma bisa nelan ludah. Itupun ludah gw sendiri!!! Lo bayangin deh!!! (kalo g jijik).
Sumoah gw sakit jasmani and rohani. Gw tau masalah perusahaan gw apa. Gw kan orang manajemen. Tapi mbok ya jangan segitunya. Ibaratnya gini,...tukang becak kok komentar soal mobil gw!!!! Jujur pertama kali salut aja ma ni orang. Tuna netra, bisa handle diri and sekarang "keliatan" sukses. Tapi kok ya gitu ending2nya???
Buat semuanya aja...tuna netra ato nggak,...mbok ya jangan suka komentar tentang sesuatu hal yang lo g dibidang itu. Jayus aja ngedengernya. Tapi jujur,...yang paling bikin gw bete adalah kenyataan kalo gw g bisa ngedebat dia. Bukannya apa2...bukannya gw g tau harus ngomong apa,...bukannya gw g tau ngebales and ngebalikin omongan,...cuma,...gw takut nt kalo gw bales, dia mijitnya tambah keras. Oooooooouuuuuuuuucccccch!!!
Kuburan Cina, Bogor
Masih ada hubungannya sama kebudayaan Cina,... gw juga sempat ke Bogor ke rumah temen gw yang (wat d u kno!!!!!) depannya tu kuburan Cina. Langsung dong napsu Mangga Dua gw keluar and ambil kamera jeprat jepret sana-sini. Bagus banget bangunannya. Kayaknya Chinese emang serius kalo soal rumah...during and after life. Liat deh picsnya di bawah ini. yang gw nyesel,..masyarakat sekitar ada aja yang ngejemur cucian disana. Hehehehe.
Anw,..abis liat2 pic nya,...mau pesen? :)
LOL
the 18 warriors
Pas gw jalan2 ke Pontianak, gw diajakin Bos disana keliling2 kota naek avanza istimewa. Nyampeklah kita ke Vihara di daerah Siantan yang gw sampe sekarang g tau namanya. Hihihihi. Mungkin gw g care banget sama namanya coz waktu itu begitu masuk Vihara,...langung kagum abis2an sama patung2 yang ada disana. Ada patung yang familliar buat semua orang--Patung Budha and Dewi Kwan Im. Bagus banget bentuknya.
Yang lebih seru and bener2 took my breath away se away2nya adalah 18 patung yang muterin daerah itu. Pas gw tanya ke si Bos, dia menjawab dengan kalemnya--emang orangnya gt--kalo 18 prtung itu adalah representasi 18 ksatria yang uda mencampai tingkat meditasi tertinggi. Sumpah deh! Dengernya aja bikin gw kebayang boringnya diem n g ngapa2in. LOL. Tapi gw tetep amaze g ada lampu merahnya. Ada satu patung yang posenya dia lagi bawa pisau gede banget. N ges wat,...gw bisa ngaca di pisau itu!!! (Please jangan fokus ke kenarsisan gw. Fokuslah ke rajinnya para penjaga disana yang ngebersiin teratur :) ).
Ada juga patung dewa mabuk. Gile ya! Mabuk aj bisa meditasi. Gw juga mabuk, tapi kenapa g bisa diem ya? Apa bahannya ngefek? Heineken g bagus ya buat mabuk meditasi? LOL
Satu hal yang gw sayangiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin banget,...g ada satu pun tulisan yang ngejelasin cerita2 tentang ksatria itu. Too bad.
the three wise monkeys and their wiser sibling
Gw lagi ngedelete file video dari laptop gw yang ternyata lama juga (maklum,...filenya 2 gigaan). Nah, ...sambil nunggu, gw coba browse2 history gitu lah. And gw nyasar ke the three wise monkey.
Tau dong kalo monyet2 itu adalah salah tiga dari monyet yang paling terkenal di dunia. Tapi apa elo elo semua pada tau sejarahnya?
Beginilah ceritanya (tapi janji jangan tidur, yeee!)
Semuanya mulai di Jepang. Jadi kayaknya sekitar abad 17 ada pahatan monyet2 ini di sebuah pintu kuil Thosogu. Selidik punya selidik, usut punya usut, ceret punya ceret, (elo punya apa? hihihihi) sebenarnya philosophi tiga monyet bijaksana itu asal usulnya bukan dari Jepang, tapi dari China.
Di China ad kalimat yang heboh banget dulu2nya yang bunyinya kayak gini (elo pura2 baca surat kayak yang di pelm2 India, ya. Hihihihi):
"Jangan melihat apa2 yang berlawanan dengan hal-hal yang pantas,...jangan mendengar apa2 yang berlawanan dengan hal2 yang pantas dan jangan membicarakan apa2 yang berlawanan dengan hal2 yang pantas."
Keren kan? Abis browsing2 ini, gw jadi mikir, (tumbeeeeeeeeeeeeeen!) kenapa gak ditambah satu lagi ya? Think no evil--jangan berppikiran apa2 yang berlawanan dengan hal2 yang pantas.
Kalo misalnya ditambah, nah,...peluang kerja tuh. Kirimkan CV atau Biodata serta pas foto pose "Think no evil" kamu yang paliiiiiiiiiiiing ekspresif. Langsung aja upload ke situs media storage seperti flickr, photobucket dan sejenisnya. Dapetin kode untuk kamu embed ke comment posting ini. Ingat ya,...yang paling ekspresif lah yang gua cari! Cepetaaaaaaaaaaaaan!
LOL

What I don't know will not hurt me
I never believe the title of this post. I think the believe only applies to selfish persons! How can someone possibly consider that he/ she knows what's best for others? No one is entitled to others' perception of ideas. It is my statement that I would prefer know the truth than feeling stupid for not knowing. So if you think that you have a secret,...better come clean now coz...YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED TO MY PERCEPTION OF IDEAS!
MOBI
Know wat, my internet connection crashed!!!! And it has been months!!! ( Boy, I do love using exclamation marks!!! Hihihihi).
Currently I am using a modem from Mobile-8 called MOBI. Quite satisfied after the installation process. It gives me 1GB free as a new subscriber. And then again,...if my 1GB has run out, I will be able to get my subscription...U-N-L-I-M-I-T-E-D (Gooooooooood, I even spelled it!!!--remember my love to exclamation marks? :) ). All I have to do is reload my voucher to my hearts content!!! It starts from Rp. 50.000/ IDR 50!!!
Now I am connected!!!
Try it for free. Log on to the the official site. Just click on "click" here. I'll see you guys...online.
PS: Mobile-8 does not pay for me to say this :)
Australian Idol sadly smiling
Pagi ini gw masuk kantor and langsung log on ke beberapa situs favorit gw. Salah satunya adalah Detik.com. Konsep situs ini hebat banget menurut gw. Saking kagumnya gw ma situs ini, gw ngejadiin alamat web nya as my home page. So, begitu gw konek internet,...langsung muncul berita paling baru di detik itu juga (gw g dibayar Detik com nulis kayak ginian di blog gw).
Once in a while, gw notice ada yang rada bikin gw ketawa. Salah satunya hari ini. Di situs mereka ada liputan tentang Jessica Mauboy--Australian Idol yang mengekspresikan kesedihannya terhadap peristiwa pemboman yang heboh itu. Ada dua hal yang bikin gw ketawa.
1. Liat nama akhirnya deh. LOL
2. Uda tau artikelnya tentang sedihnya si Mauboy itu, tetep aj ya fotonya dia lagi senyum2 g jelas. Ya ampuuuuuuuuuuun. Mungkin karena seleb, ya.
Well,..at least I had a good laugh to start my day :)
The Pontianak Thing
Live from Pontianak, Je is reporting his current state of mind.
Leaving Day
My Gooooood,...there were bombs in Jakarta? So sorry for the victim of the blasts. What makes those people not satisfied with just firecrackers, anw? Isn't it enough???
I got the phone call from my boss asking me where I was. I told her that I was in Rawamangun Bus Station waiting for my ride (I didn't tell her that I was smoking also. Hihihihi).
"Do you know that there were bombings in Jakarta?:
"Really."
"Yeah,...it caused the jam all over. I am caught in one now. How about you?"
"God sake,... I am in east! Everything is ok, here."
I was wrong!!! Dead wrong!!!
My flight was at 13.00 andtThe clock in the bus was already at 12.30 and I was still at Pluit. Panick attack? NO!!! Just worried if I missed the flight and had to spend extra money to get another ticket and,... I was right!
I arrived E-X-A-C-T-L-Y at 13.00 (my flight) right in the check n counter. Shooooooooooooot!!!
My Boss arrived later and both of us were running here and there to get another ticket. We got like 700.000 to spend for the flight to Pontianak in another 5 minute??? We were running towards the gate and wait for the bus whick took us around to Terminal 2. And when we were there, there was no more officers wandering around the area. Whe we found one,...we asked (pointing at a plane nearby): "Is this the plane to Pontianak?"
(Feel more like taking a mikrolet--Indonesian's traditional transportation--instead of a plane!!!)
He said yes and off we went to the stairs of the plane.
Is that all? Nooooooooooooooo!
Well,...at least we arrived at the Airport. I decided to smoke (after about 6 hours) to soothe myself. I got this nice object until suddenly a UFO contacting Houston saying: may day! may day! may day! and hit the end of my right eyebrow. It turned out that the UFO was a bee. I felt the heat around my head.
Did I see the light? Did I see the light? Was I going to die???
Naaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
I stayed alive for the presentation the next day. It was,...wow (in a sense that the participants were 99% very young to be a kindegarten and elementary teachers)! I had a great time, indeed. I am not sure about them. Hahahahahahahahaha.
Taking photographs time!!! I can only say that the city is indeed offering us with great buildings. I think that the architects were very serious in building the houses and other buildings. They are just...cool! But not until you see the garbage aroumd the docks! They were...wuih! Too bad. erally for a city with a lot of buildings to admire.
One of many attractions to this city would be the Viharas. I admire the red as they are being very consistent with their nature. The reds are very red. The branch manager there took us to this very vihara in north of the city. There we saw 18 chinese soldiers standing (well,..some are sitting) out so vividly and gracefully with certain poses. He explained that each of them have reached the highest level of Budha meditation. I saw one of them wearing his "buncit" belly and holding a "kendi"--Indonesian traditional bottle--of alcoholic drinks. Now we know where he got the "buncit". LOL. There was another soldier holding a metal axe and guess what,...I could see my very reflection on it. Boooooooooooy!!! The guards take good care of the statue, I believe. The thing that I regret the most is that there were no names let alone stories of the statues. I mean,...why didn't the local government do something about it? If you wana sell something, you gotta let people know the strengths of your product, right? If the government seriously want to make the vihara a tourism object, they should really seriously put a guide for the tourists to enjoy the magnificent history there.
Now, let's talk about the smoke. Indonesia has been reporting the forest fire in Pekanbaru. But how about in Pontianak? I felt like I was one of teh characters in THE MIST by Stephen King. The smoke was crazy there. The branch manager told me that there are so many private fire fighter companies and they usually arrive faster than the official fire fighters!!!
All in all, it was a really eye opener experience to be in Pontianak.
Ayway, I just found out that Lidah Buaya taste a bit bitter :)
Heeeeeeeeeeeeelp!
My blog and I have a problem. Everytime I finished posting an article or everytime I check it directly by typing the web address, my blog seemed not updating itself. So I keep on seeing my post last two weeks. I have tried to clear the cache and deleting all the history even ALL my bookmarks. But stil,...
I want my blog to be updating itself everytime. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGGGGGHHHHHH!
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp!!!!
selfish selfish me
In my present life time, I am a presenter presenting many presentations to teachers (four time variations of "present"). And currently I am working on one for some participants in my company.
When I recall how I am as a presenter, I think I am a selfish one. You see,... I like trying fonts and I like to see how they look like on the screen. However, they do not always look good printed. And that's where the problem comes.
Reprinting can come three or four times due to my selfishness. Hehehehe. When I am writing this post, I have just printed one of my handouts for early August. Apparently, like other fonts of my choice, Candy Round BT joins the "let's-show-J-how-selfish-he-is" club. Fiiiuuuuh...
I really do not want to change the font since it is relaxing, fun and non-threatening. So,...what I will do after this is dividing points on a slide into two.
Selfish me!
we serve,...we are not servant
I think the title is self-explanatory. Some people obviously got problems in differentiating the two words--serve and servant. They got mixed-up in the definition and application. I just hope that I never become one of those people.
Behind the scene of this posting:
Boy, I am thirsty. "Heeeeeeeeeeeeeey, Ijaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
a curse
"With the power of maturity,... I give you the ability to differentiate good from bad jokes!!!"
(the sound of thunder)
what do you grow?
What do you grow?
Surprising as each day can be, people keep on inspiring me in many ways they may not realize! One example began when I dared myself by promising to my Manager for six speakers in a row for one of our sharing programs. She asked me what I wanted in return and I said:
“Cake. Anything with Blueberry in it!” ( I got a thing with anything Blueberry )
My big mouth was my motivator. I see myself as someone who keeps promises. So, when I make a promise, I will try my very best to keep it. As a promise has made, I went to the journey of catching presenters.
To my dismay, it has been a hard time to find six presenters. i got some names but some of them MAGICALLY...turned busy—busy thinking of choosing one out of thousands of ideas to present, busy with their own personal job desc, being appointed as the writer for the new President’s speech, preparing red carpet for the alien invasion, handling International singer’s concert, making sure that the grass are green, painting the sky blue and other micellanious things SUDDENLY coming up.
Did I give up? ALMOST!!! But then I thought of the sweet sour (just like life) BLUEBERRY cake I have enjoyed the day before when my Manager had her birthday when I realized that GIVING UP is a feature I rarely use in my job. I kept on going.
On my way of fighting the war, I came across this well-motivated young lady who always looks like she has just finished taking a bath—fresh face, wet lips, blink-blink eyes and all that—with a very fresh (Boy! She is!) idea. However, she got nerve constipation which should be normal. She politely explained things to me and I got them. She said that I have been an “ICON” for developing people in my company. I just said that I was once lost and alone with no one to guide me and open doors of opportunities for improvement. And now that I am in a position of unleashing the potentials, I do so. Then she said the magical sentence that made me far more laid-back of a person. (More or less) The sentence was:
“The thing is..you grow people. You can’t expect them to bloom in one night.”

One of many rules of the game
I was chatting with a friend who has thousand of philosophies to this world. A kind of manual of life, according to me. Here's what happened.
I was smoking during the break and suddenly a car arrived and parked in front of me. My friend came out of the car and joined me smoking and talking trash.
"Where were you from?" J
"Chess practice." F (Friend)
"Who won? You?" J
"No,... I could win if I wanted to." F
"Hahahaha." J n F.
"Well,...here's the thing, if you always win, then nobody wants to play with you. What for? Gotta give up sometimes." F
"Got a good point there. You were making sense...today." J
"Hahahahaha." J n F.
The conversation ended up right there.But not my thought!
My inner-self made me think about what happened to me. Few happenings relate well to that several minute conversation. Here's one:
I feel like I often giving up to people's wish. I do things for others even though I do not really like. The thing is that, lately, I feel like winning. I want people for a once to do what I want. But I still do not get it.
To people out there,...you gotta let me have what I want and let me win sometimes!

Love IS all around!
I was talking to a friend owning a very old—antique, he says—motorcycle. He was just telling me how his motorcycle seemed to have past a hundred lifetimes (Pheeeeuh!) when suddenly I saw the proof that his motorcycle IS really something. I got my camera ready and snapshot it. Here is the picture.
Ain’t love all around, guys?

DESKTOP CLEANER
How often do you clean up your DESKTOP?
I feel “itchy” when looking at someone’s desktop full of files and shortcuts. I feel “itchier” if I see them covering almost half of the desktop. Eeeeerrgggh!
OK, it got me into thinking. Why do we put all those files there, anw? Here are some answers I got from my friends:
“It’s the shortcut thing.”
“Didn’t have time to move them to where they belong.”
“It shows to my Boss that I ACTUALLY work.”
LOL LOL LOL
Well,...here’s what I think to those responses. I agree with the shortcut thing. It does save us a great deal of time to find a file. But still,... I myself put all of my shortcuts in one folder on my desktop. It says “OPEN IT, JE!” The folder contains my current works nad projects. Inside the folder, there is another folder that says “PRINT ‘EM OUT, JE!” since currently I am sharing a printer with a colleague (though rumor has it that I will get my owm this MONDAY. Yippppiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeee).
Just like other people, sometimes I just don’t have the time to move all the files on my desktop to where they should be. That’s why when I am running out of idea (my job requires me to think a lot. Ehm,...ehm,...) I spend my time—this sounds like Eminem’s song—Cleaning up my desktop. I put all their folders. I even categorized them into many—BOY they are many!!!-classification. Some people say that I am very tidy. Some others say I am very complicated. I say...what do you care!
So you Boss thinks that you don’t work? Hahahaha. No comment on that one
Whatever happens, I always try to have only one vertical line of files or software on my desktop. Here are the list of files or softwares on my notebook and what they represent:
COMPUTER—it’s everything, right?
AVAST—Gotta stay healthy!
ACER’s WIDGETS—All-in-one-click shortcut for my computer functions
J—my personal folders
GOOGLE CHROME—for internet use
SHORTCUT TO VLC MEDIA PLAYER—Gotta keep entertained!
YOU TUBE DOWNLOADER—finder...keeper!
OPEN IT, JE—My current works
FILES DOWNLOAD—Gotta know where the new files kept
How about your desktop, then? Should you need the assistance of desktop cleaning, click
