10th of June 2005
I got a new book!! Awesome ...So good aye...look at the design.!!! That s gonna be my motto..."TO BE CONFIDENT IN THE DIRECTION OF MY DREAM. LIVE THE LIFE YOU HAVE IMAGINED" Amen..:)
Anyway, i am still in the gold coast now. exactly i got 1 month to go..I am finishing my contract on the 10th of JUly. I am so looking forward to it. Cant Wait.!! I am just trying to enjoy myself here. ..partying hard and try to get more knowledge from the hotel as many as possible.
But yeah, i think that i will always remember is my Birthday party. It was fantastic.. Probably a phenomental time in my life. I had a lunch with friends (my closest friends) at broadbeach---> yam cha. Oh, i started with party at the Quest with Ranty.. Only 2 of us man.>!!! unbelieveable ay. That was pretty cool. Went clubbing for the first time with Ranty. We finished at 4 o clock and then went to the beach and watched the starts and waves. Awesome..Wish that was with my beloved Girl friend..hehehe.:)
Sure i ll be killed if Andry knew about it..pst...
I felt not enough for a party. ..I went out again with my work mates plus Michelle and Diana..They only just arrived from New Zealand ( Thx for coming guys)..
%%%%%%Party Animal%%%%% not good aye... Well, just having fun ...21ST BIRTHDAY Thats all the reason behind..But hey, I still remember to go to church ..It was FRIDAY THE 13th OF MAY 2005
Man do you know what..21st means a lot to me. Now i got the key of my own life...BUt guess what...I have become such a worry aye..All the bad 1st experience came all in the same time during that week.
These are the list (forgive God for all i have done)
- Smoking (blame Ranti for this)
- Clubbing (again) again for the first time in the goldy and surely got piss
- THe hoolywood - what a holly "strippers" ( 2 times in a week)
- MPs - that was scary, surely dont wanna go there again..just coz it was Charlie birthday
This might be re post for many many years ago.. it s a story about my life ...story about way of life and what my life is different to others... Story that i don't know if i should be proud of it or to be shame of it...
I don't know if any of you ever feel like, "you don't wanna do that stuff, but you just don't have a strength NOt to do it." And the worst it, its happen over and over again...Every time you make commitment, every new years you make commitment or resolution about it..and every time you fall..
May be that s what people call a "sin".. It feels so good, so then you are so tempted to do it..but, once you fall, you ll feel so shit about yourself coz you fall deep down in the bottom...
anyway....hopefully one day....i ll come to this page and celebrate myself to win over this..
lets pray.
As optimistic as I am (I can find a bright side to just about everything), I also know that life can be a dark and lonely place.
I’ve talked to teenagers who have a parent whose anger makes just going home after school a dreaded trip.
I’ve known people who can’t escape the curtain of depression.
I’ve spent considerable time with others who, like my wife and me, are enduring life with the sudden death of a child.
I’ve seen what relentless poverty can do to people all over the world.
Despite knowing that these scenarios exist, I don’t despair. I know that hope is available in Jesus, that guidance comes through the Spirit, and that knowledge and power are found in God’s Word.
It s mean to be a business trip to Bandung, But i ended up staying for 3 days in Gombong at Mum's Place.
First of all, the design from Asses is not ready coz we make lot of changes in last few days. So, the dead line for that design changed till around 8 of January. - which that s mean i got spare times to kill either in Bandung or Gombong.
In the same time, Je Yudith apparently going back to Gombong too, so it s a good catching up then between us. Pretty funny, coz the whole family is kinda split into 2 without purpose .. J'ephie and the family and oh rony family went to Banka Belitung on the 4th till the 8th. Me and J yudith back in village. We wasnt planning to do that. I would love to go to Babel.. But, i got no spare money for fun plus, i need to go to Bandung on the 5th from the originial plan.
Anyway, one we arrive in Gombong..We found out that "mini market manager" resign from his job. And as you know, Rest Gombong is like a chaos. No set of work schedule, no system, no management NUFFING...So, Mus was a bit worried with the mini market losing the head..So, all the sudden it comes to the conclusion for me and J yudith to take over of Mini Market... Me personally, based on my experience in soka, i would rather to take over the whole a lot of Mini market rather than, just fixing the system. Coz i know, i would be able to fix the system when i am not fully incharge on daily operation in there. But, J yudith thinks different ways...But anyway, i ll let it go what she wants to do....I mean, i am here to supports everything which comes to the conclusion...
Anyway, so, the "work" in Gombong wasnt something that i have planned it before.. But, it seems kinda fun for me to do this.. You know, my aim this year is to take as much as opportunity to get the business going...So, this is another opportunity for me to prove to myself what i am capable of and enjoy life with work load...Thanks God, i am just gonna take this ride of life on 2009..Bring it ON..!!!
wuihh, akhirnya berlalu juga tahun 2008..Tahun yang panjang buat gua..banyak banget kejadian kejadian yang selalu dapat di ingat di tahun 2008.. it s been like a roller coaster really..!!! ups and downs...yahhh seru deh.. what have i been doin in 2008? flash back dulu deh di tahun 2008:
January 2008
recovery from ill - tipes di akhir tahun yang harus buat gua masuk rumah sakit for a few days..and skip the work during x mas and new years holidays..so, bener2 gak bisa ngerayain x mas ataupun new year..not even be able to work..
Di bulan ini juga, gua merasa, i need to make a move..deciding between staying in Indonesia or going back to Aussie... And at the end i decide to apply PR to oZ.
February 2008
Preparing for my application to OZ for Permanent Resident (PR). Summited all in March.
March 2008
work has been really busy.. MY restaurant reached a massive income record in a day RP 40 jt rupiah..Was so happy..
I decide to go for interview to work in new opening hotel In Atlantis Dubai. I got a job straight away in that interview. I was so excited at that time. Atlantis dubai is amazing and to be able to be part of it is a priceless experience for me i think.
MOst of all, i Met 2 other people during the interview John and Kei Which right now, they ve been my Hang out friends since that. They are really kewl and entertaining for me. At least they have made my life different in Bali since i met them. I started to go out and know the night life in Bali. You know, you can life in this planet without friends. and that obviously proven to me. So, thanks for all you kei and john.
April 2008
Holidays to Hongkong for the first time with My sister and the family. Amazing things to see over there.. I got to catch up with Tiffany in Hongkong. I always enjoy travelling. Glad to see other people life style in other part of the world.
In the same time, this month, i have a minor operations on under my ear. just to take off some lumps under ears. Pretty scary but it was a sudden decision..I just did it...It makes me realize that anything can happen in your life without warning first. Praise to God for looking after me. But yeah, visiting hospital twice in 6 months wasn't very pleasing experience for me.
Mei 2008
My birthday, didnt do anything this time..just a small dinner with my sister family at JImbaran. No celebration nuffing.. Ups, i remember, i met friend from Cs, he was nicely remember my birthday and offering to celebrate it together in kuta..so, i went for drinks with him and visiting the "bar" for the first time ever, and obviously i didnt stop coming over to that place since.
June 2008
Life has been busy with work loads in SOka.. I kept waiting for my PR to come..obviously i couldnt concentrate on what i am doing in Indo...So, life had been very boring and unexcited for me.
July 2008
I got ready to go to Dubai. I got the contract and all ready to go. But, after i told my dad about my leaving, a week after that, he went serious ill . He got stroke and had to go to hospital for a week. IT s not a experience i wanna have this year. Everyone in the family was crying and lost kinda of thing. Specially with the visitor from my dad other family..Not nice, and mum got blame for all of it from my sisters..!! It s been crazy, i dont like it that situation at all...
Obviously i had to make a big decision not to go to DUBAI...Gosh, you know, at that time i was feeling like i had to make a major life time decision. YOu know, leaving indonesia was all i ever wanted for the last year. And it s now the door was open for me to leave but, with all this family situation, i could t do it. undiscripeable
feeling you know.
Agust 2008.
Went to singapore with dad and mums, my sister and brother for my dad health check ups. IT s all went well. I love Singapore since that.
September 2008
the quitest month ever in Soka coz it was a fasting season before Ramadan.
To be honest i am still hoping for my PR to come coz it has been a while and i could be anytime soon to be granted. But, it never comes.
Thanks GOd, for all happen in mid year..Since my dad sick and wasnt able to work like before, i started to have my own decision in Soka. Kind off full authority to work overthere. So, i started to renovate the restaurant . And you know, the feeling i have was amazing.. I new how to built a restaurant now, and it wasnt easy..so, since then, i am feeling attach with that restaurant now. I started to like renovating and making changes in Soka. FOr a while i forgot about all going away plan to overseas.
October 2008
work work work i guess...it s ramadan and busy time to earn as much money as i can... I lost all my money for renovating restaurant now..so, time to collect them all..:) .. THe restaurant looking very good.. But, no other family actually got time or interested to look at it. Dad still feeling and thinking the same way to me. He thinks i am a loser and got no use at all for this family. :( ..But oh well, i didnt tell anything about all the improvement and renovation to him..
NOvember 2008
Went to singapore again my dad , mums and sister to do dad health check up. He went straight to bali to check out the restaurant after that. i think he was quite impress with all he s seen. And for the first time at all, he said, the renovation looks good..
At this time, i got a few offers to start making other business. I met with MAtthew from MECA (agent for my PR application). He interested to work together to open MECA in bandung. SO, we met up and agree to follow this idea up. From now on, i enjoying my time in Indonesia. IT really coz i could start making things happen. I was so happy for all my progress. This time of the year, i was not thinking of going overseas anymore.. ALthough my PR was still a good benefit for me. But i really hope that MECA is becoming my other life history in the future.
Dec 2008.
We start signing contract for MECA. I have become a director for this company. I am so glad i did it. Hope all went well with this.
And for the first time ever since the last 5 or 6 years, i could celebrate new years and x mas. I went for dinner with Pricilla on x mas eve and Party time with puput, john and taha in new open lounge in kuta for new years...fireworks, dance and drinks is always good for new years. ..:) thanks GUYs
