free wifi

i have wifi connection in my room! wow! and free! someone must have left the configuration open. it's a bit flaky, but hey, i can't complain. hahaha...

the training is officially over today. intel's pr ftf 2005 is over. there were so many interesting things to learn. if i was still a journalist, i would love to have all of this information. it's just too bad i'll have to shut my mouth up, hehehe...

sooo, i extended my stay until sunday. yes! will still have to check-out tomorrow, though. but i'll stay the night at kak joni's place. he's been very, very nice. i'm so lucky to have a relative here.

went to patpong tonight. i could have enjoyed more, but my leg is killing me, and the heat was almost unbearable. i was sweating like crazy. decided to call it quits and went back to the hotel. plan for tomorrow is to see the reclining buddha. it'll be interesting. and of course, more souvenirs shopping.

(posted from wapblogger) Went to dayce's wedding. It was so packed! Lotsa important people, too! And the food was good! But the most important thing was, i had fun! Indo pacific may be a pr company where the consultants always year black jackets to client meetings, but when we had fun, WOW! Hahaha... We were so bored waiting for our turn for the group photo, we took our own pictures. And in outrageous poses, too. When our turn finally came, we didn't waste the chance. For the last pose, we all turned our faces and looked at the bride. The groom couldn't believe it and covered his face with his hand! Hahaha... After that, we actually planned to go bowling, but it was so late and we were tired already from the waiting and those crazy acts, we went to mulia instead for some coffee. Oh boy, what a night! Hahaha...

(posted from wapblogger) Have to go to metro tv tomorrow. *sigh* Must accompany arya from intel, who'll be interviewed for e-lifestyle program. Why must it be on saturday? Damn! And why must metro tv be so far away? Damn!

(posted from wapblogger) I still call australia home. No, no, i'm not losing my nationality. Just listening to the song. Found it among my dusty old mp3s. Remember the old qantas tv spot? It was during my stay down under. Why do i like this song so much? Dunno, really. It just sounds so majestic. Alluring. Relaxing. And right now, i'm listening on an ipod. No, not mine. My mom's friend dropped it at home so i could check if it ran ok. I really want an ipod now. *sigh* But my priority for now is to finance a notebook, with asus w5 as my target. Hopefully i can get it before i go to bangkok.

headache still there

there, here, whatever. woke up this morning feeling quite good. but come 10am, it came back! stronger! more intense! kill kill kill! oops. sorry. heheheh...

Sunday, April 10, 2005

(posted from wapblogger) Huh i hate headaches. Like the one i'm having now. It makes me unable to enjoy everything. But still, i managed to put together some ideas on intel & smb. I called it "growing with smb". I'm quite proud of myself, since that was my first genuine idea since God knows how long. I just hope this translate into good marks for me, hahaha... The bad news is i should've sent it yesterday. At least my boss replied "no problem" on her sms.

(posted from wapblogger) Ouch ouch ouch! My body is so sore. Went bowling last night, with deden, dania, & renya, at automall. It was great! We had fun. It turned out the girls had never ever bowled before. But they improved. No strikes or spares yet, however. As for me, that was my first game in more than a year. And i felt rusty. I did manage some strikes and spares, though. Conclusion: let's do it more regularly!

Thank yous!

"first of all, i'd like to thank God. then my parents, then my sister, her husband, her daughter, all of my friends..."

yowza! hahaha... last night was the award ceremony of InfoKomputer's Survai Merek Favorit 2004. the magazine did a survey, where the readers sent their inputs on IT brands which came to their minds on specific category. the winner of each category then receive an award.

of course, i went last night, based on personal invitations from jerry, andre, and adam. incidentally, my client, Intel Indonesia, has been winning the favorite processor category. and none of the bosses could make it last night. so, when the mc announced Intel rep to come to the stage, the info guys were all kinda panic, as to who would receive the award. then they saw me (obviously, i was standing among them, laughing, talking, etc), and told me to receive it. i was beaming, honestly. there i was, among IT big names' bosses, receiving the award from my former big boss. hahahaha... unfortunately BENCONG wasn't there. but most likely he'll see me when the pics are published for next month.

anyway. it's always nice to go and see my friends at infokomputer. i'd go anytime i had the chance. i don't want to go comparing sides here, but let's just say ik and ip have different personalities. each has its own highs and lows. obviously i have much more responsibilities here at ip than at ik.

but, gosh, last night was almost surreal to me! hahaha... too bad i can't keep the award!

no longer distressed

well, not very, anyway. still kinda frustrated, but things are getting better. my luck's still down, btw.

Sunday, April 03, 2005

(posted from wapblogger) i'm very, very, very frustrated. Distressed. Confused. Whatever you may call it. I just hope i won't wake up tomorrow morning. But since luck seems to have deserted me lately, it's very unlikely.

(posted from wapblogger) i hate indians. No, not those red-skinned native-americans. I'm talking about those onion-eaters, smelly, cricket lovers, backstabing low-lifes. Such as the company's it division's technical advisor. Yeah. The bitch. Laughs with you, but backstabs you when you don't see her. Why those indians have to scatter all around the globe? They're everywhere! I know that blasted country is getting crowded, but please mess with your own people! Stab yourselves in the heads or anywhere, i don't care. Just keep your smelly faces off me! Huh. To be fair, i've known some good indians. But generally, i'd stay away. As for the one in the office, i really, really, really wish a new, non-indian, manager can be found real soon, so we can be rid of the bitch. Or i may have to see and try whether my cursing ability can be applied again.
