So close, yet so far away..

Hearing back the song “Aku Malu” by..err…kinda forgot who sang it but it’s a famous song back in the old days.. Neeways! I heard it last night on Bugs Cafe Pondok Indah when I was watching Raden plays a lenong for the Abang None 2006 finals of Jakarta Selatan. I was just talking about some fellow with a mordant wits when suddenly this song was played by the band, it is such a hilarious coincidence that it makes me laugh my heart out (no offense on the one mention dude..).

  • And everything would falter…

    I could never really understand why all of my previous relationship ends at quite a short time, 6 months to the top if I remember correctly. It is not because they’re not pretty enough, smart enough, or understanding enough to sum it up, and I don’t think it’s a not-my-type matter either because all of them didn’t really have similar features except for their gender of course.

  • Free

    If I were to describe myself in one word, it would be Free. Free as in freedom and not free beer (GNU anyone?). It’s more of like a basic principle really. It’s beautiful in terms of morality and sociality. Of course that freedom comes with the obligation to adhere with the consequences and I fully respect that. Freedom is not being able to do anything to anyone, but that word describe more of an ultimate environment where people could become themselves without other people telling them who themselves are.. well at least to me.

  • Pathetic…

    I just got a song that I’ve recently played at a redundant duration called “Ku Benci Kau Dengan Cintamu” which means “i hate you with your love”. I know, the title’s kinda lame and pathetic, but wait till you see the lyrics on this and believe me, it’s as pathetic as the title. But then again I played it over and over again.

  • Memories without me

    Yesterday I got a free time from all the hectic work that I’ve been doing in regards to Rajasa (well.. what else :P), so I’d thought of designing a new look for this blog since I’ve been wanting it for quite a while and yet the leisurely time to do it has yet to come.. Well anyway, It’s been a bore for me not to have at least a good picture of myself on my blog and so I searched for a pic to start with the design.

  • No Office? Why Not?

    I’ve been going around companies for quite a while last year and it bothers me to wake up in the morning, work, and then went home late at night so that I could repeat that routine the next day. Personally, I hate routines.. and I don’t really like waking up at 6 in the morning to travel 2 hours to my office :P So I question thee, is there really a need for an office?

  • My Life, As I Hire People

    On my 22nd birthday, my secretary in affair gave me a book entitled iCon. It’s an unofficial autobiography of Steve Jobs that reveals the life of him in the way that even he himself would hate.. And that’s the reason why it’s interesting.

  • New Portfolios

    I just finished 2 more projects, the first one is Reading Culture. It’s a site of cultural learning made in collaboration between Faculty of Humanity (Fakultas Ilmu Budaya in Indonesia, I didn’t made this up because they themselves wanted the name), British Council Indonesia and Warwick University. Tell me what you think of it.

    The other one is Respina, it still lies in my sub domain because of several problems with the real one (http://respina.org). Been trying to get that domain from the previous owner but the registrant quit Respina before any transfer could be made :(
    Well, that’s my latest addition. Feel free to comment the design for me because I really need inputs so that I won’t be this lame of a designer for a longer time than now :P
