St. Thomas Reunion (Taipan)

Angles came back to Medan for holiday and they called up for a gathering at Taipan (again; we just had one). This time Sylvira, Yenda, and Fenny also joined.

Yeah.. that's Angles on the left with her son.

Anton's wedding

Now the next two days are gonna be a busy and exhausting day for the Edens. My cousin is getting married. This morning was in church and followed by a lunch for almost everyone in town (his late father was an important person in the community); another dinner at Aryaduta Hotel, Medan tomorrow evening.

Happy days for the family. ^_^

Of course I'm not gonna miss some pictures with my gf. ;-p

and my cousin..

and my cousins...

Happy wedding

The time has come for my dear cousin to move on to a higher level of relationship with his love. Yeah.. he's getting married this week. It's gonna be a busy week.

I've been doing video for slide show in the wedding day, He requested for the song I believe I can fly, which later on I found out that he's been putting that only song in his Winamp player in BroCom.

The next week after this is Ishak's on the 3rd of Feb.

private void

Things haven't been quite as good as it looks in the beginning of this year; too much of shit happened. I started to grumble on my life; suddenly everything has gone blank. Have been doing lots of wrong things.. or at least people around me tend to think so, which kind of intimidating my mind lately that I haven't been such a person I should be.

I haven't been reliable in doing things, forgetting things (way too much, too often).. Being human is so complicated..

Have been so far from God lately.. I feel empty..

Piracy in Church (IN)

Some of my friends in P3MI had me to write an article about software piracy and link it to church activity quite some time ago, so.. here it is in Indonesian.

Sleepless

It has been good 2 days for the beginning of this year; but for the first time in my life (as long as I can remember), I couldn't sleep. It was 3:34 AM and all I had was the character Nicolae Carpathia. I felt something deeply terrible that I couldn't move on the bed.

I was watching Left Behind while waiting for my mom in my car in the airport parking lot.

I decided to turn on the PC and put some music for the room; it worked for me. ^_^

Installed Citadel @ office

I managed to successfully install Citadel Groupware on Ubuntu in office. I asked for a junk PC so I can play around with.

Used the Easy Install and sorted it out nicely.
I had some problem before with an old machine; at first they gave me an old machine since it was just a testing, but that machine was troubled indeed.

So the entire IT department is playing around with the groupware. We even have hilariously funny discussions.. ^_^

Good laugh for the day.

St. Thomas Reunion

First day of 2008, hopefully a good one.. Had a gathering with old friends of St. Thomas 1 senior high school, where I spent my last 2 years of high school.

I met some of those that I haven't seen since I left high school in July 2001.
Had one big meal in Hanamasa Medan and straight to Imperial Cakery just after it.





Hadi showed up with his wife (they're new weds ^_^) Still as funny as before and mature of course.






For those of ex 2C 2000 @ St. Thomas 1 Medan, I've made a private group here. Apply for membership to join.

Lucky Draw System

I made a small program to accommodate the lucky draw in my church. Simply put the parameters (number range) and start the timer to randomly select the values in the listbox.

I uploaded the exe here. Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 is needed to run it.

I used this small program 3 times for the past 1 week.

Happy New Year 2008

Another year has passed by and we all welcome the year 2008.
Many wish for the best in this new year, but I just got a new year SMS from my manager that changed the way I should think of new years.

Do not only pray for the good year, but most importantly, that we can enjoy the challenges; ask for the strength and wisdom as this year goes for we can cope with the new year.

God does not give out hard times that we cannot handle.
Happy new year to all.. ^_^
