Happy EASTER

Happy Easter everyone..
Another Easter has passed away.. and this time, still not much of things happening in church. I've been wondering why people celebrate Christmas in a much luxurious way than Easter, where Easter is the whole point of the entire plan. Christmas is just the beginning and the most glorious part is Easter, where victory acquired.

I've been thingking of some grand event of Easter next year. The one that should surpass Christmas.. ^_^

Anyway.. Happy Easter everyone.. May the victory be with all of you. ^_^

Documentation and getting ill

After the training, I'm supposed to do a documentation of what we have learned there. This is for knowledge transportability to new people (we're recruiting more IT people for the company). So here I am.. doing a documentation. I think it's good for me that I can express (at the same time excercise) of what I have got during the 5-days training. ^_^

But again.. I'm ill. Itchy all over my body.. Perhaps it's something I ate. Went to doctor this noon with half an hour permission from the office.. And I feel terribly weak for the past 2 days. I'd better get some rest. Happy weekend guys.. ^_^

Youth Meeting 3

Youth Meeting 3 GMI Binjai... A whole day event where the youth fellowship officially invites the youths of other churches.. It's gonna be a busy day.. Good for me is that I'm not one of the organiser; simply a participant ^_^


Vocal group contest...



The situation downstairs during lunch time...


Ping-pong.. Anyone?


U'll never thought of this.. They're actually playing soccer game on a basketball court... with a tennis ball.


even in the rain...




Hectic day.. yeah.. shits happen in there, but we manage to contain them. This event taught us of security is one of the priority in making an event successful. An unauthorized entry of outsider could have ruined the entire thing. Thank God it didn't. ^_^

AIX Training @ Jakarta

Finally the end of AIX training in Jakarta.. Lots of things to catch up. It was okay for the training; especially the short part of the UNIX shell programming since I've done some of that during college time.

Here is the picture of everyone who's involved with the training. 8 trainee, 1 instructor, and another 2 guys of those who arranged the training.


And the star of the "cute" ^_^ The yougest of all cousins...

Training @ Jakarta

Just 2 weeks after recruited, I'm sent to Jakarta to attend IBM AIX training for the SAP Project implementation in the company.

The training takes place at PT. Binareka Tatamandiri's office, partner of IBM of course, who's also involved in the SAP Project in the company I'm working in.

And frankly.. it's cool.. ^_^
The lessons are cool, the people are also cool; professionals who have been dealing with SAP and IBM AIX before have been really helpful in giving the ideas of SAP implementation and as well as the concepts of IBM AIX UNIX system.

And I can't wait for the next class tomorrow. ^_^

Beach Kongkow

Holiday!! We're goin to beach.. After so long, the event organised by the Methodist Youth Fellowship is finally taking place on the beach; sharing and playing.

This is what I need after a hectic life of work. ^_^

hectic life

I just can't seem to understand what's going on in my life.. Problems simply come as other has gone over. I'm so tired.. exhausted.. I don't know how to deal with them anymore. Things are just going out of control; that I can't see the positive things like I usually do.

I'm so stressed out with things around me. Work, family, lover, friends, church.. Too many parameters that I have to include (I start to sound like a programmer eh?).

But hell.. I can still choose to be okay or not.. and despite of the path I'm choosing (being okay or not), shit still happens.. Be happy everyone.. ^_^

Work & scolded out of nowhere... (;-|)

And here goes two weeks of working in this new place.. Not bad actually.. Get to know people, working with SAP.. And I kinda enjoy this place.

Everyone has a cubical with LCD screens for everyone; and that gives me the space I need.

And the story of the day.. A phone was ringing in my department that I was supposed to pick up when nobody is around (and I do that often since the team is quite mobile within the office for this SAP project) and I picked it up.
It happen to be a guy asking for everyone else but me and left a message telling me to get the IT coordinator to call him (in somehow rude way). So I gently asked him who he was.
Suddenly he just asked me who I was (in a rude tone, again).. I told him my name and still asked who he was again (since he wants me to tell my coordinator to call him.. how am I supposed to know who called?)..
Anyway.. He asked again if I were new. And I said yes.. And for the third time I asked who he was, I got his name rudely in which later I found out that he was one of the directors upstairs.

Okay.. that was shocking.. but what did I do wrong? Man how on earth am I supposed to know who that guys was? Additionally, he speaks as if he orders people around as he likes (well that's what he does basically.. ;-p).

Later my coordinator told me it was okay.. and it better be.. coz if it's not okay, I've got nothing to lose.. I know I can work here with God's blessings and with the quality He has given me. And I will work things out the best I can. The hell with those top people. (^_^' *swt)

But I try to think of things in positive way. From the way everyone speaks of the management, they have full respect of them. That means they are kind enough for everyone. Maybe he was in a bad mood.. or something else I can't even imagine. Besides, I've spoken to one of the director (who is the big boss' son, young, synergic) that I find to be the best superior I've ever talked to all of my life (in a professional way).

Happy working everyone.. ^_^

not JobLESS

And finally I've got myself a job right not too far from home.. A real office job with IT scope and a PC with LCD screen in front of me.. (today is my second day working here)

Where? Permata Hijau Sawit Group (or often Permata Hijau Group) and I'm based in the head office here in Medan. ^_^

What do I exactly do here?
I was hired for ABAP (Advanced Business Application Programming) if u have heard of SAP, but I also do the dirty works of IT (it's the situation where someone call the IT Dept and ask for someone to solve computer problem)

by the way.. the entire EDP consists of only 4 people including me.. -_^

Eventually I end up staying in office until 7-8 pm for ABAP lessons by an instructor who works for ISS Consulting Indonesia; and this will last for 3 weeks.. -_-

Anyway.. I'm still glad that I still have the chance to learn more new things.. ^_^

More charts in reports

Glad to have my app being fully deployed and functioning well. However, upgrades have been constant as new feature requests are being made. Now it gets prettier on the eyes with charting.. ^_^

I think I'm going into more scope with this application.. ^_^

Gathering

Another gathering with friends that I haven't met for months. Talking bout old times in college..

Deconstruction continues

Before and after...

Crystal Report deployed

This is one hell of a day just trying to get my application running on my dad'sPC.

I thought it was just install the .net framework 2.0, but it's more than that.

The crystal report didn't work out in it. Then I figured out to create installer file to install the program; hoping that the runtime components for crystal report is included. But again, I was wrong.

Lastly I found out how to include prerequisites into the installer. From the project properties (of the setup wizard project), click prerequisites, and then select the Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 2.0; build the project and Wallah.. The runtime installers that you require are there.


^_^

The deconstruction begins

And thus.. there goes my home sweet home. As planned, we're deconstructing the house and rebuilding it from zero.

Btw, my bro (who's in interior design and architecht) is designing the house with minimalist idea.. ^_^

My father bought the next house so that we can have more space.

We're renting a house for a year until the construction finishes..

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's day, everyone..
May your life be filled with love.. always..


God loves u all..
Have many lovely days.. ^_^

Valentine steamboat 2006

And again.. after another year.. this year's valentine hangout with friends came.. It has been such great times with everybody from the sunday church teachers and their fellow friends.. ^_^
We also exchanged presents to each other.. ^_^

Of course other than valentine's day. It's "cap go meh" (the last day of chinese new year)

Happy days everyone.. ^_^

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... ^_^
