"All of me" 

all over my playlist

With different version of acoustics and the original one...

Dandelion

Picture paints thousand words... 

And my dandelion belongs just here....

In my heart

None

And I just lost my words...

My countless definition of the world

And my appetite to write...

Until someday..

Decision

When you take a decision, you need to be ready..

For any of the consequences 

Manageable or not, you need to manage it...properly...

Chop Suey

I don't think you trust

In my self-righteous suicide

I cry when angels deserve to die

it will stay... for as long as I breath...

Back up

It's time to back-up my data

And delete some

Leave only what's necessary...

Home...

Sweet home...

And still tired..

But, I need to wake up early tomorrow for medical examination..

Wish me luck? ;-)

Journey of the week

Day 1: 

Regular audit day conducted in Palembang. Another usual day of document checking ;-)

Day 2:

Started with road journey, 3 hours to reach the nearest port and then changed to speed boat. Do not imagine modern kind of speed boat like we see on television. This type of boat, although fast enough, is long and narrow. And the driver was very skillful considering how very wide and how very narrow the stream was.

When we got into the boat, it was already dark on some parts of the sky. I did not wish that the rain won't fall, I wish the other way instead. And yes, through the 2.5 hours boat ride we got 1 hour of heavy rain. It was fun (for me) and I enjoyed it a lot. Luckily I had my phone securely placed inside an underwater pouch so I got to take video and photos during the rain.. My pants did not survive the rain though but I had my spare one ready while I had it dried (naturally) when we got to the location.

The camp was very modest, elevated wooden housing which we called Rumah Panggung. I saw this one row consisting 3 stars (anyone remember the name?) and one beautiful bright moon... (So beautiful that I wished I had my DSLR with me to capture it)

Day 3:

We conducted the audit until noon and then we started to move to the next location after lunch time. A bit delayed by the heavy rain, however we cannot really wait for the rain to stop because otherwise it will be too late and we might collide with the bathing time of the elephants. The elephants use the canal that connects this location with the rest of the world, so if they got ahead of us in the canal then we have to wait until they finish their bath, which will be too late and too dark for the water journey.

Rain did not stay long and we went to the next location with another (same type) speed boat after being transported with other type of boat called "Ketek" to the end of the canal. This is the boat type that made very loud noise and we had to use proper earmuff during the ride.

Safely arrived at the next location. Beat tired. We got small rain during the journey but not as extreme as the day before. The soil was all wet, slippery and sticked on my shoes :D making my safety shoes heavier than they already were..

What did I got here? A sky full of stars. No moon but the stars are just marvelous. Its like being sprinkle to fill the sky. The last time I saw something like that was in Mount Bromo, last year...

Those are additional benefit of my audit work. Nature that is not available to see from where I live...

Wait, but don't ask about clean water supply here... We had brown water from the river for bathing :p I cannot imagine myself brushing my teeth with that water so I had to use the mineral waters from the bottles *grin* (not so adventurous, huh?)

Day 4:

Same schedule as the previous day, audit until noon and then we went back to the city. Another 2 hours by boat and 3-4 hours by car.

Hit the hotel. Had a bath tub and enjoyed the clean warm water :-)

You need to appreciate what you have and sometimes you do not realize that you are so lucky before you are faced with the worse condition....

Day 5:

It will be just another audit day at the office, closing meeting, and fly back to Jakarta...

I am beat tired now...

Ready or not

Here we go....

Pagi-pagi sudah menuju bandara

Macet seperti biasanya...

Semoga aman di sana

Ngga ketemu yang aneh2

Tapi boleh lah kalau mau ditunjukin gajah atau macan atau buaya.. ;-)

Selamat hari Senin!

Hutan

Minggu depan jadwalnya audit ke hutan

Sudah lama ngga camping atau bergelut dengan alam.... Terlalu lama dimanja nampaknya..

Mudah2an masih bisa packing dengan baik dan benar, membawa semua kebutuhan...

Kalau gini baru ngeh deh, masih ga punya jaket parasut aja dari dulu...

Padahal dulu pas kuliah pernah pengen banget karena ada teman yang pakai (sayangnya harganya fantastis untuk ukuran saya waktu itu :p)

Sometimes

Sometimes the thing that we held on to is not nearly as important as the one we lost...

(Suburgatory - 2015)

:-)

Berharap itu bikin sakit, jendral.

Tapi cuma itu juga yg membantu bertahan

New post

I got an offer and I have accepted it

But there are 2 stages before it can be finalised... I hope all goes well :-)

As God permits...

Instrument

My second week of class for this instrument

Last week was the first time.

First time for any formal class *LOL*

I have never been formally learn any instrument through music class, so this is my first experience

And I enjoy learning to play it

When I travel, I might prefer to take this instrument (and my DSLR) instead of my laptop :p

Hello Saturday, I love U!!

Sakit kepala

Tumben, hari ini sakit kepalanya mulai di pagi hari... Dan tidak menghilang sampai sore ini :-)

Bukan sakit karena flu kalau yang ini

Tapi maag...

Jadi memang tumben, karena sudah lama sekali tidak merasakan maag yang langsung menusuk kepala...

Umur

Pagi tadi...

Pas jemput sonshine di sekolahnya, ketemu dengan teman lama yang jg menjemput anaknya...

Sempat berdiskusi panjang lebar tentang bagaimana saat kita dipanggil Tuhan nantinya... Secara teori tentunya..

Sore ini... Bangun tidur siang dengan sonshine...

Cek email di hp

Ada berita duka cita dr alumni Swedia

Beliau yang meninggal ini masih cukup muda

Terakhir saya bertemu saat ada acara di rumah ibu Dubes (pertama kali bertemu lagi sejak dari Gothenburg)

Saat itu beliau masih sehat dan bersemangat sekali membangun negeri ini lewat generasi mudanya (beliau ini dosen UGM)

Ternyata beliau menderita kanker hati dan terdeteksinya terlambat... :'(

He was a kind person and he was the person who welcome me at the bus station when I first landed in Sweden (him and my aunt)

Setelah itu cek group wa

Ada berita duka lagi...

Ayah dari teman kantor yang tadi siang saya tengok ke RS ternyata tidak bertahan...

Hari ini saya diingatkan lagi...

Umur manusia itu tidak ada yang mengetahui...

Dan kapan pun itu kita harus siap...

Mudah2an saya bisa siap setiap saat :-)

Test result

So... It continues to the next level...

Semoga berjodoh ;-)

Diberikan yang terbaik menurutNya untuk saya saat ini...

Amin

Batuk

Akhirnya mulai ketauan juga hasil dari sakit kepala tanpa henti sejak 2 minggu yang lalu..

Hari ini tenggorokan mulai sakit :-)

Kalah juga akhirnya...

Mari dinikmati saja kalau begitu ;-)

#siap2 bikin teh panas pakai lemon

So...

This is it... :-)

March be nice

New month already...

I hope everything are going good

All things are great

All issues resolved

All are fine :-)

These days 4 years ago, I was having trouble breathing and was not able to sleep peacefully :-)

Yes dear son, I was counting the days to have you delivered..

I love you then, I love you now, and until the day I die...
