hi there,how ya doin’?

it’s been quite a while since my last post.but it won’t be long for the next one.hehe.

a lot of things happened to me for the last couple of months.nay this blog updated,my life updated.

so,here i am,connected by GPRS,flunked by madness,stressed by how much credit i have to give for this shit.

so,please,anticipate my post.

“twenty-seven years of nothin’ but failures

and promises that i couldn’t keep

Oh Lord i wasn’t ready to go, i’m never ready to go

let it ride” 

– Let It Ride, Ryan Adams

oh yeah, that “twenty-seven”, make it “twenty-three”.

a bunch of thanks for those who greets me with their “happy birthday”s.

may God bless you all. 

birocracy,  has been my major villain since my parents made my birth certificate.

someone once said to me:

“people who bribes or being bribed will burn in hell.”

“that is the test”

on the next couple of days, my driver’s license will be expired.

i’ll face my test.

simple, yet very relevant

the lost art of being a newbie:

1. never tell anyone about it
2. secretly browse wiki
3. if you ever need to ask, ask nicely and act like you forgot about it
4. pick someone you can trust to be your mentor
5. extend your deadlines
6. always start your statement with a ‘as far as i know’ sentence
7. never haste, be cool as you were an expert with a vast experience
8. tell ‘everything is under control’ to your boss, despite your baggy eyes
9. in front of the computer monitor, make a comprehensively look

as a slothful IT labour, which i would never dream of, i mindlessly code day by day.

leaving me in vague, do i have to code for the rest of my life?

i knew that this is not my calling, tho i have to admit that i’m starting to get used to it.

this dreary job could make you insane somehow, somewhen.

remember the ‘all work and no play makes jack a dull boy’ phrase?

so, in order to save my sanity (and my so-called-life), i play.

what am i playin’? well, you already know what i’m capable of, right? ^_^

I’ve changed.

I just hope that I’m on the right track.

“there’s nothing in this world that is not urgent”

said my current boss, on the verge of a long weekend, a couple of weeks ago.

pernahkah anda cebok menggunakan HandyClean?

saya pernah. rasanya dingin. FYI, saya tidak hobi cebok dengan HandyClean, ada cerita di belakang ini. begini ceritanya.

Jumat, 2 Februari 2007. banjir hebat melanda jakarta. saya berangkat ke BSD dari rumah di Cempaka Putih jam 6.30. tidak ada firasat akan terjadi banjir. ketika sampai di pintu tol pondok ranji, saya diberitahu penjaga tol, “Mas, di depan banjir 40-80 cm, kayaknya mobil mas ga bisa deh”. saya putar balik, lalu memutuskan untuk menunggu banjir surut (ya, saya tahu, itu bodoh sekali) di kampus FKG Moestopo.

ada 3 alasan mengapa saya menunggu di kampus FKG Moestopo:

1. lokasi terdekat dengan pintu tol veteran
2. biaya parkir tidak dihitung per jam, malah kadang gratis
3. mahasiswinya cantik-cantik ^_^

setelah berjam-jam menunggu, saya ditelpon rumah, “jalan depan rumah banjir, kayaknya kamu ga bisa lewat”. ke BSD tidak bisa, ke rumah juga tidak bisa. kemudian Read the rest of this entry »

Alhamdulillah, saya berhasil melewati sidang.

*yay!*

lumayanlah untuk seorang mahasiswa ber-IQ dan bertampang pas-pasan
(baca: pas gantengnya) seperti saya.

dan sekarangpun saya resmi menjadi pengangguran.

*sigh*
