Injured toe

Another incident happened to my toe.. The nail went off.. and gosh it hurts like hell..

Ended up having troubles putting on shoes and sandals.. ^_^

Hanamasa.. again...

And this is just another hangout with cousins..

We were just so eager to be together that we take any chance to celebrate anything..

This one for example, is basically coz of my brother and another cousin are going back to KL for study.

blackout @ airport

This is a somewhat regular incident in Polonia International Airport @ Medan, Indonesia.. Such embarrasing event does not happen only once, but quite often I can say. And when I came back from Penang, I just got the bad mood when I see the airport. U know.. when u just saw the great airport overseas and then suddenly seeing Polonia with the corrupt and unmanaged problems.. -_-..

We ended waiting for half an hour for the baggage belt to get online because of the power outage. However, my dad happened to had this incident once quite some time ago and waited two hours for the power to get online.

Family Trip

And here is the long awaited trip.. Honestly, I haven't been going out with a full family member (of my dad, mom, and bro) for quite some time; that I have been missing of it so much.

The trip started on Jan 27 until Feb 3 (Friday until Friday):
Medan - Penang - Hat Yai - Bangkok - Pattaya - Bangkok - Hat Yai - Penang - Medan

And yes.. it was exhausting.. but at least I can get to be with my family once more.. ^_^

Here is the entire member of the tour in front of the Temple of Dawn (Wat Arun), Bangkok.


Dearest cousins...


And the Ohana... ^_^

GoldSys Project ongoing...

The new program I've been busy doing.. My dad wanted to use it for his work.. I just can't dissapoint him and at the same time.. proving myself worth all the money he invested me for my study.. ;-p

Computer cirisis!

And this time incidents come all at once for computers around me. I just don't get it. My laptop runs very.. very.. slow during startup and even after I've formatted it twice. I've been trying to recover it for days..

And now comes my desktop that simply can't play video files (as if the images are enverted) and figured out that it's the driver problem. Downloaded new driver from Nvidia and it works again.. ^_^

Old & New Youth Camp

Spending new year in church camp (29 Dec 2005 - 1 Jan 2006). Busy all the time, but at the same time enjoying the new year.. ^_^

Games time.. ^_^



Happy new year everyone..

Last day of work

Today is my last day working here.. And I feel bad of leaving everything this place.. ^_^
So some of us youngsters went out for lunch at the mall.

Merry Christmas..

And have a very merry and wonderful Christmas for everyone..

May the blessings of God be upon you and everyone around and even those not around you.

Happy Christmas.. and God bless you all..
Have a wonderful holiday.. ^_^

Resigned!

It's not the happiest moment of my life of course.. that I have just resigned my position as a programmer in Sigma. Well it all started when my dad called for a family trip that I have been dreaming of for years. More than that, four complete families are going to join us. This is something I would not lose; moreover, I'm afraid this will not happen again and I doubt of any other trip next tim, ever...

I've been enjoying my times working here; nice environment (except for the smoking-enabled mode), friends, seniors that have been such good co-workers and companions in Sigma. I'm so grateful for the opportunity of having worked here.

At the other hand.. this might be the solution to the problem itself; being so far from all that I hold dear. ^_^ I'll try to get a nearby-job after the family trip.

Wish me luck.. ^_^

Dizzy day with C#

I haven't been doing anything related to work today. I've finished my CR and the test script as well. Luckily I've got my laptop here at the office.

So I've been doing this MovieBuster project from start using the new Microsoft Visual C# 2005 Express Edition and Micorosoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. I wanted to use VB, but I've got problem in installing the new VB.Net Express. Maybe I tried to install online and cancelled it once.

And it has been a wonderful day to code in C#. I've got no RPG for today.. Haha.. ^_^
But I've also just got a headache and dizzy head. Maybe it was becoz of the coding.. ;-p

I hope I can finish it soon enough for profile in a month. ^_^

Wireless world

And here I am again.. online on my laptop wirelessly via my office's WiFi hot spot that I just found out an hour ago, just half a minute before even I used it.. ^_^

A bit unsecured though.. that anyone could practically connect to the network and gain access. There was no passkey etc.. ^_^

However.. pretty impressing that I can actually get online wirelessly.. ^_^

the sound of Christmas

Christmas is coming soon.. and I'm still stucked here in the working world. So hopeless and missing all home, friends, families, and church activities especially Christmas prep.

I'm recalling the Christmas years that I have passed before with the ones I love, families, and friends; sharing Christmas... -_-
I miss decorating the chapel, choir exercises, arranging Christmas party and service.. chilling with friends.. holding candles with friends and families while singing Silent Night.

Now that I'm lonely.. Have I been making wrong decision of coming all the way to Jakarta and work? Abandoning everything I hold dear... To think about it, this is the first Christmas for the past decade that I am not at hometown.

May God fill this lonely heart with joy...
Cheer up.. Christmas is coming.. ^_^

Documentation "IS" important

I've got this idea since college times when doing projects, but it was just theorical and I didn't really grasped the idea of it coz I've never really got into trouble becoz of lack of documentation [well except for grades] [and I've always been a hardcore supporter of a robust and complete documentation during ever].

I've gone lots of troublesome tasks just because there were no documentation available. So the best learning experience while working I've got until now is "documentation". Someone will eventually read your code.. so do spend extra time for documentation [or if you are the boss, do get someone to do it]. System design is important for knowledge transportability.

You might think that you are doing small system, but eventually that small system grows big. And when it's big, you'll realize that the processes in it has gone too complex to be understood by just reading the code.

Surely I've learned lots of things here.. From the entire process of making systems, technical skill [of course.. ^_^] and I'm ready for others.. ^_^

btw.. it's a robust company with so well created designs and system development cycle with all the paperworks.. man I just like the ide of being so organised.. I'm so proud of this local company of mine that I can finally say: Made in Indonesia.. ^_^

Graduation and KL holiday

The day that I've been waiting for so long.. graduation day.. and at last, I could once more be together with the bretherlins.. ^_^


and some of the closest people that have the greatest influence in my study..


and some crazy times together..






beautiful flower on my way back from Genting..


and Wimal's funny face coz of the excitement of something... ;-p


and a last view of the KL landmark before I went back to hotel to grab my bags and go back to the-boring-working-and-i'll-miss-malaysia life in Jakarta..

missed stuff

At last.. my dear laptop is back in hand.. after 4 months of not being properly used.. I can once again feel the power of computation.. hahaha.. ^_^
But I can't really enjoy it for now.. I'm leaving to Medan tomorrow early morning and fly to KL on Saturday..

I'm looking forward to the trip to KL... ^_^ and btw, Ahmed just called me (I mean international call from Malaysia) just to tell me that they're gonna go out and hang around tonight.. :-(

I miss going out with them.. -_-

Sigma anniversary celebration party

What a night..
5 teams put up a show, including my team.. We were demonstrating the combination of some modules in banking (as in displayed on the umbrella.. ^_^)


Some of the mates from the same team.. ^_^


The party finished up quite late.. 23.30 while I had to take the company bus back to the office coz my bike was still there.. Reached home at 1.30.. Exhausting day it was, but not bad.. ^_^

New face of the blog...

I've changed the template.. for eye refreshments.. I'm sure everyone's sick of the template.. hahaha..

I've also added a bloglet.. it's a free system that notifies u (with subscription) that I have updated my blog.. Don't worry, u can still unsubcribe.. ^_^
