My second month of april in borneo.

Spring breeze always gave me some sort of new spirit. hope for something new, something better, warmer.. something called: summer? :)

Though every day is summer here, this april somehow brings me the same hopes :)

Mia welcomes you April :)

after missing him so much for quite some time, i could finally see my nephew qistan in bandung last week-end.

as i'm writing this post, the plane is taking you away from this city. have a safe flight my dear, thanks for this wonderful weekend we spent together, cant wait for another..

qimoy, 15 months +

just look at him..

merci d'avoir passe ces sept mois de merveilles avec moi.

happy 26th birthday.

i'll say more things tonite on the phone,
we'll celebrate tomorrow in jakarta ;)

need a blow out preventer

when i was told to take this training, i accepted it cause i thought there's nothing wrong of learning the subject in a more pedagogical way even though i knew the subject more or less already. and, at that time, i was still in the study team, not yet (even not informed yet) moved to monitoring. so i could manage i thought..

helas, i got transferred. in a way, i am terribly happy about moving, but it indeed has an impact on my training. i cannot manage to catch the schedule already agreed by the trainer and other participants.

you made your choice. you deal with the consequences. endure.

i said:
yes, i did choose to take the training. yet, i didn't choose to be transferred (with more workload than before).

one said:
finding 4 hours free time a week is peanuts. learning new things outside your daily job is interesting. this new brilliant training method should work better than the old ones.

i said:
it's not peanuts when you get home after 8 pm each night. it's not interesting when your head is full with work and putting another subject to it is just too much and can blow your head up (yes i'm exagerating but it's true). so it's not better, it's worse.

one said:
you're just being inefficient, lazy, unorganized, spoiled.

i said:
yeah whatever..

so, ena dear, you know now why my blogging frequence is less and less than before. starting to feel tired with this training that eats my week-ends up until end march. and just trying to be patient with it.

another news, it's been a year since i arrived in my home country (01 March 2006). feel great about it, for many reasons. one most important, for having you around :)

one more, happy birthday message to my old bro oki. he'll be 30 tomorrow. shit, you're 30 man!!! hehehe.. hope you, teh ndet and qistan, and more perhaps ;) will always be blessed and filled with joy.
