LDR

Last week was unpredicted weekend. Everything that i’ve prepared was cancelled. I’m not blame it to anyone cause it was my mistake. My plan want to date with my girlfriend just be sentences in my plan list. What a pity!

For me, long distance relationship is not desire but it’s decision. Since i met someone who live in different city then i fall in love with her and made a relationship. I think it’s almost three months. Although we live in different city but is not too far, only take one-two hours by bus.

But why? Why it looks like so far? Only different city, not province even island! I need to visit her only for see her with my own eyes, talking, walking and get around. But she don’t want to hang out by a reason ‘lazy’. Is that logic? How come?! Don’t you happy if your girlfriend/boyfriend visit you and ask to hang out? Don’t you?! I totally don’t understand what did she think about. It’s like a silly habit I think. It’s ok! I hope one day she will understand.

On the contrary, about my friend. He went to other island through the bus, ship and plane only want to meet his girlfriend. How big his effort! He can make the distance so short but actually the case it’s so long. He live in south sumatera and his girlfriend live on west java. Can you imagine that?
I know, everyone has own reason whether they want to date or not, but however using ‘lazy’ as a reason is not logic.

My daily activity

It’s long time not write something in my blog. Huuuft, finally, i have a spare time. Today is Sunday, after finished all my daily activity i directly open my laptop, write the thing in my brain. Firstly, i never think what i’m gonna to write to fill my article in my blog. Secondly, whether i have an idea or not i always write if i have a spare time. And the last, each article that i wrote in my blog is about my feeling, hopes, opinion and so on. Those are my principle as a young blogger, hehe.. :D. Here, i want a tell you about my daily activity.


As a young generation of Indonesia we should do the best in anything, anywhere and anytime. To make our country be great country in the world, make our country grown up as the biggest country in the world.
I’m the youngest boy in my family, although the youngest boy. Now, i can earn money by my self, buy what i want with my own money. That’s what i should thank to God, in each my breath.

We start work on 08.00 am until 06.00 pm. In the morning we are study the material in the office then in the afternoon after lunch on 02.00 pm we are going to site. Sometimes, it depends on our leader, what time we will go to site. Can be in the morning, 8 am, 10 am or 4 pm. They made a small rolling in each shift group, so that it can be in the morning or noon we go to site.


In site, we applied about what we learned in the office. Because, we are going to be an operator machine in power plant. Focus and concentrate are main principal in site. To prevent the machine broken or even victim. Sometimes, we found the problem or question that we can’t resolved then we try to solve it. We ask the leader, if the leader can’t answer it, he will ask the chief operator then the problem has been resolved. We write it in the book and try to remember that problem as the lesson for today. Those are my activity for these months. It will be gonna changed, if we have shift time.


Saturday and Sunday are the days that we always waiting, because most of us will go back to their hometown on Saturday after that they will back company again in Sunday afternoon or Monday in the morning. The company provide the bedroom for us, two people for one room. So all of us has own roommate. Yeah, that’s awesome. Because we can deeply know about our friend or workmate.


Those are my daily activity during work, in my spare time after working sometimes i thinking about my plan in the future, take for example ‘education’ i really want to continue my study to university. Hopefully next year i can continue my study without interfere my work. Amin. God, bless me. :)

They are Canadians

It was on friday afternoon, 23rd July 2010. That day is the last day me and friends get around in Beijing. Because the day after tomorrow we are going back to our beloved Country, Indonesia. So, after our friends has been leaved China on afternoon, 23rd July. My friend asked to me to get around in Beijing for the last time. I have no reason to reject it. So that after lunch, we went to Beijing. As usual, we are used bus 930 which bus bring us from Sanhe to Beijing.

While listening my favourite music in my MP3 player, I'm looking for the highway of Beijing, took some pictures in bus, hehe.. :D yeah, I did it to record my last traveling in China. During in the bus, I saw so many people not only Chinese but also other people with black skin, curl hair. I guess, they are foreigners in China. It seems they look like confused and hesitated. But I just saw them, I don't have any idea to say hello or some words to them.
After our bus arrived in Dawanglu station in Beijing, as expressively I said "go, go, go!" why I said like that? So many people want to getting off from bus in Dawanglu station, cowded and jostled. Maybe the foreigners heard that I spoke English (go, go, go). After we get off from bus, the foreigners said to me; You speak English? Yeah, I said. And he shows his handphone to me, and I saw some Chinese character ”呵呵。。“。He asked me to translate that words into English. And I know a little Chinese character, as directly I told to him; it means, "hehe.." your friend laughing on you, said me to him. O yeah? Hahaa.. thank you, thank you! answered him to me while laughing. Then he said to me, your English is very good. I just smile to him, hehe.. 8)

And then, it's my turn to ask him a few questions. I asked him, what is your name, where are you come from, and something like that. After I already knew their names, they are Canadians and come to China just for business. Then I introduced my self and my friend to them, we are Indonesians, come to China for study in one power plant. After heard my explanation that I'm Indonesian he said to me "APA KABAR? SUDAH BERAPA LAMA DI CINA?". Wow, surprised! Did he spoke Indonesian? Said me in my heart!? Great, you can speak Indonesian man, your Indonesian is very great. Said me to him. Yeah, I have been in Indonesia. My wife and my baby are Indonesians. Awesome!!! Nice to heard that.

Then, we took some photos, giving phone number each other also email address. After that, I continue our traveling with my friend, get around in Beijing. They are Mark and Jeff! Glad to know you guys, see you later! I'm so proud as Indonesian because I have so many friends not only in my hometown but also in China, Canada, Pakistan and Arab. Alhamdulillah, that's all because God blessing. Thanks God, to gave me so many friends in the world.

NINETEENTH YEAR OF MY LIFE

I wrote this on the day of 19th year of my life. I thought that my 19th birthday wouldn't be complete if I didn't write this. Maybe this note will show you little bit of my mellow side.

Maybe this is the first time any of you reading about me saying thanks to Something or Someone up there, who gives me a lot of blessings or even the smallest luck that I never realize, thank you.

Is she your Girlfriend?

Before I begin my writing, I want to ask a question. Do you have a girlfriend? Hehe.. I’m sure some of you already have a girlfriend right? :D Nowadays some people said “girlfriend can make you feel comfort, she can make you feel happy when you sad, and she can understand you”. Yeah, everyone has own opinion about girlfriend. Including me. For me, girlfriend is someone who make your heart feel calmdown, with her words, with her smile and so on. I’m sure some of you ever make a relationship with girlfriend more than one or two times right! hehe.. :D it’s normally happened, because when we felt unconveinient with girlfriend, and your girlfriend didn’t care about you anymore, or girlfriend didn’t love you anymore so both of you decided to broke your relationship. Then, you find the other girlfriend in outside. Am I right? Because my brother said Don’t worry so many girls in the world! broke one, grow one million. Hahaa.. :D I like that words. Here, I want to tell you about my first experiences when I made a relationship with my ex-girlfriend.
It was happy with her. Her name is Nurhayati, she was born on January 1992. Actually she's younger than me. But, it's ok! She's the only one in her family without brother or sister. When she was 2nd grade of senior high school, unfortunatelly her mother was passed away. So, it makes she's so depressed. However, me as her boyfriend always entertain her with my words and my love.
Our story between me and her are very short. Because, after graduated from senior high school. She decided to continue study to the university, but me not yet continue my study. My family have problem in financial. So that, I decided to earn money and follow the job training. Since that was happened, we seldom meet each other like a few months ago. When we're still in senior high school.
After several months following the job training, she said to me to broke our relationship without any reason. Based on her statements "I'm too kindhearted. Actually she's lying on me, because when she want to broke our relationship she's only supposed me as her BEST FRIEND not as boyfriend during that relationship. Oh my God! How could it be?
I only laughing loudly when I remember that story, hahaaa.. :D maybe I'm so handsome, so it makes her always nervous whenever beside me so she decided to broke up! Hehe.. 8). Yeah, no problem guys. That's normally happened. Thanks for all the memories that you gave me as my 1st girlfriend. Thanks for the good and bad that happened between us. Hope that you’re happy. Thank you, Nur.
Now, I'm looking for a new girlfriend. With new specification, handy, futuristic and so on! Hehe.. :D yeah, that's all about my ex-girlfriend. Maybe you can share your story with your girlfriend to me. Ok guys! Thank you!

It was unbelievable and incredible!

Before I tell you much about my experience that I want to write in my blog. Let me tell you about someone first. To make you clear what's my purpose in my blog. Her initial is 'MI'. I knew her, when I were in China. At the first time when I made an account on facebook, I added all people that I met on facebook without thinking whether that people I know or not. And then, I have many friends on facebook. After that, I often chatt or comment with all my friends on facebook. Upload some photos, notes, status or something like that.
After a several months, I made an account on facebook. I met someone on facebook, she's girl, she's Indonesian, pretty good and her intial is 'MI'. Of course she's human, hehe.. :D. We often chatt to know each other, share some experiences or even make a joke. From facebook we moved to Yahoo Messenger which application special for chatting on internet. And from YM we often made a video call or voice call. Yeah, that's all we did to know much each other.
Then, on 25th July 2010 has come. All of us back to Indonesia. Before I leaved China, I told to her, I said; 'It will be better if we meet each other in one place after I'm back to home later' and she said 'yeah, we'll meet each other if I still alive' while joking with me, hehe.. :D I only laughing in my heart when she said like that! Then I said; 'I hope you still alive when I arrived in my home later'. After one week I haven't keep in touch with her, I've sent some messages to her on facebook, I asked her to meet in one place which place we've agreed to meet. And she has agreed. It was 7th August 2010 I went to that place. Actually, I want to bring motorcycle but unfortunately I haven't driving license card yet. So, I decided to go there by bus. I told to her, that I will go there by bus and she said; I also don't have motorcycle, are we really use on foot to get around? It's up to you! For me, it's fine or even CRAWLING I'll do it! Hehe.. :D, she said while laughing. Oh my God! It was AWESOME! I never meet someone especially girl have said sentences like that! Unbelievable!
After a few hours through bus and waiting, I arrived in that place and finally I saw her with my own eyes. Yeah, glad to saw her! Do you know what will happen next? We are really use on foot to get around in that place. It's almost same what did I've done when I were in China! INCREDIBLE! I know, she's very shy, because she told me, it's the first time to get around with me by on foot. Hahaa.. :D yeah I know that but I try to enjoy that situation with her. And we used 'Ojeg' to pick us up went to BA park. It was beyond my imagine, I have nothing words to tell you how crazy I'm with her at my first date! We did a silly behave that never ever did for people like us. After get around, much talk with her I decided to go back. It's going to rain and I said to her 'nice to meet you!'. Bye-bye.
So guys, it's very important for all of you. If you want to date with someone the most important thing is you should have a DRIVING LICENSE for your personal safety then the policeman will not stop or take your motorcycle because you haven't a driving license. Or you will have the same experiences like me! Hehe.. :D

Finally is over!

Today is July 28th, 2010 the second days I arrived in my hometown. I can't explain how happy I am because after several months study in other country finally I came back to my home again. I can meet my parents, my brother, my sister, my friends and etc. I've finished my study in China with sadness and happiness.

At the first time, I really felt uncomfortable with the new environtment, season and food. But, day by day finally I can adapt with those things. Actually this is the first time I've been away from home. I never go away as far as it is. So, it's my great experience in my life. I can't lying my self that I never homesick, when I were in China everyday is homesick for me. At that time, I only want to say "I want to go home now!". But, in fact I only screamed in my heart, I can't do anything except waiting until we've finished the scheduled. On the other hand, I can take the advantages from my study in China, hehe.. do you know why? When we have a holiday in the weekend, I walking around in Beijing City, so many tourism places that I've been during study in China, really! Such as, the great wall, forbidden city, tianan'men, tiantan, yuyang ski internasional park, wangfujing, zhongguanchun and so on. That's my way to enjoy my day in China, reduce my yearning with my parents and home. Study while walking around.
Since I've stayed in China, so many knowledge and experiences that I have. Not only about power plant with their equipments but also about their cultures, customs, society and life style. While learning about those things, I also learn Chinese language. I can't guarantee we can communicate easily and friendly because we can speak englsih well. Not every Chinese can speak English! So that's why we should learn their language.

Now, I'm in my home. Enjoying my holiday, gathering together with people who I loved, my parents, brother, sister, best friends and people around me who separated with me for a long time. My adventure two hundred eighty eight days in China has been finished. Let's make a new adventure with more challenges, powers and obstacles in the future. Because life is challenge.

This is the first experience that I have during holiday in china. After new year in 2010, in china still has new year, the new year is we call as Chinese new year. Let me tell you about Chinese new year in china. Actually, I never have dream to see the Chinese new year in china, but in fact..woow, great! Just like happy new year on 1st January. So many fireworks in the night. But in Chinese new year we can see the difference between new year on 1st January and Chinese new year. First, when Chinese new year has came. Usually Chinese people use traditional clothes with red colour. It means of traditional culture of china. They used red colour as luckiness. Believe it or not? But we will not see it in the new year on 1st January right?Second, Chinese people has unique tradition. When everybody celebrate the Chinese new year, the father will give the money to his son or daughter. After you says greeting to your parents, uncle or to your grandmother or grandfather. The money his put in the red envelope and the he will give it for you. As a symbol of prosperity and loveliness. We call it as Hong Bao. But, if you already get job or already get married, your parents will not give you hong bao. Of course not, because if you already get job it means you are strong enough to earn money by your self right? Same as like if you already get married, it means that you are strong enough also to fullfil daily life of your wife and your children.The last, whenever you meet someone, he or she will says Gong Xi Fa Cai (greeting), Wan Shi Ru Yi (anything will goeswell), Shenti Jian Kang (wish good healthy), Xue Ye Jin Bu (for a students), Gong Zuo Shunli, Bu Bu Gao Sheng (wish you get a promotion for a workers) or something like that. In Chinese new year, everybody full of happiness to celebrate the Chinese new year. The Chinese new year so wonderful in the night. Wherever you go, you can see so many beautiful fireworks during the night. Even in the day, they still play the fireworks. I can’t believe it. Wow great! Actually, this is my first experience to see so many beautiful of fireworks in the night even in the day. In my hometown it’s seldomly to see fireworks like in china.When everybody back to their hometown to celebrate the Chinese new year with their family, me and my friends celebrate the Chinese new year in our hotel with singing and dancing. I don’t care whether we sing good or not but we only want to enjoying our situation that we have right now. And then, we went to Yu Yang Ski International Park, play ski together with my friends. Actually, I always falling down when I want to play it. Hahaha..of course yes, because this is my first time to play ski in my life. Now, Chinese new year has gone but I can feel the Chinese new year until now. I hope, I can celebrate the Chinese new year in the next time with my family.

What is your dream?

When you was a child, someone can ask you. What is your dream? And then you can say, I want to become a pilot, I want to become a doctor, astronaut, a soldier, a police, teacher and others. Am I right? But now I want to ask you, what is your dream? Is your dreams same like when you was a child? Or your dreams already changed by time, Or do you have other dreams? Or, maybe you don’t have dreams?
Yeah, everybody has own dreams including me. When I was seven years old, I want to become a soldier. Because, at that time in my opinion. The soldier has strong power to protect the country from enemy with their great equipments. After I graduated from elementary school, and I have so many friends. My dreams had changed. At that time I want to become a Director of the company, with high salary. So that I can buy anything that I want to buy, I can give that money to my parents. Buy the big house, car and motorcycle. Wow, great. And, that dreams become my motivation in the school. So, I always study hard to achieve my dreams.

Since I graduated from my junior high school and then I continued my study to the senior high school. I have changed my dreams become a racer, guitarist and pilot. I really don’t know why my dreams always changed by time. Since want to become, soldier, director, racer, guitarist and pilot. But now, after I graduted from senior high school and I accepted in one of company, I’m not become a soldier, director, racer, guitarist or pilot as my dreams. But, I’m going to become operator in that company. It’s beyond my imagine. I don’t know why but it’s reality.

I think whatever your dreams the most important thing is the way you achieve that dream and how perseverance you are and your focus with your dreams, because everyone wants to achieve their dreams to make their parents, family be proud. I know and I can feel, if you can achieved your goals in your life, you can change your world, you can makes everybody around you be happy. And also, your parents must be proud of you.

So, do the for your self to achieve your dreams because dream is the key to explore the world. With your dreams you can makes your family proud of you, with your dreams you can change your world, you can get what you want, and you can give the best thing to others. At least, if you want get what you want you must be perseverance and focus on it.

Me and a few years ago

I still remember at that time. When I were in Senior High School. When I still used my uniform, white and brown colour. With the black shoes, tie and hat in my head. It was unforgettable. Do you know? When I’m alone and nobody beside me, I always remind that time. I really want to back to that time. When me and my friends laugh together, study in the class, do the same thing, even we have same punishment from our teacher. But, nobody can’t back to that time, because time can’t be repeat. The time always running. We can’t stop it, even we can’t pause it. My father said,use your time in a good way so you can make your time usefull, don’t awaste your time with the bad thing! I always remember that words.
Before everthing has changed by time, before I know what life means, and before I know what is my purpose in my life. I already knew friends as my precious thing. Really! Now, I have been away from my home although only for a few months but I think it’s take a long time you know.I never imagine that I will be go far as far as it is. Never! So that’s why, I miss my friends so much, especially my best friend who always give me a spirit, who always give me support and suggestion when I need. Someone who never laugh when I’m sad, someone who always smile even sad. He is my best friend, I supposed him as my brother you know! When I go back to my home later, the first home will I visit is his home.
Some of my friends said, I am looks like different with two or three years ago. But, for me nothing has changed. Me is me, i never change become a superhero, like a Batman, Spiderman or something like that. I still like eat Tempe you know, :D I like play football, swimming, reading, jogging. What did they said? Am I looks like different? What’s their expect? I don’t know. They only said, I’m not like a few years ago, I become arrogant, egois, and selfish. Owh, I can’t believed this. Trust me my friends, if you judged me, arrogant, egoisand selfish. I think I don’t care about all of you, I won’t visit your home, I won’t say Hi when we meet. So guys, what did you said just your wrong opinion about me. You should understand me. We are human, we need each others right? What do you think about me? Am I different with a few years ago? That’s your opinion, it’s up to you, it’s your rights. Whether you judged looks like different or not, for me I only do my best for all of you, because you are my friends.
So, at last I want to say we are friends, we are strength if we united. Together we will survive to take a brighter future. For our friendship, for our brighter future and for our dreams. Let’s do our best and we will get the best thing.
