My life, my way

Kartika Angkawijaya — Tue, 14 Jun 2011 00:00:32 +0000

Last weekend I flew back to my hometown to attend one of my best friend’s wedding. And nothing is more exciting than meeting your old pals. It’s been more than 5 years since our graduation. There are a lot of things happened within those 5 years. I used to watch my buddies left my hometown [...]

Level up!

Kartika Angkawijaya — Thu, 07 Apr 2011 00:43:31 +0000

When we play a game, either it’s a puzzle game, strategy game, or RPG game, each time we complete one stage or level, the next one would be slightly more difficult than the previous one. Right? The same analogy with life. After you complete one stage in your life, the next one will be, most [...]

Sometimes life will give you what you need and not what you want

Kartika Angkawijaya — Tue, 05 Apr 2011 13:19:13 +0000

If someone asked you, name 3 things that you want to have right now and it can be anything. What answer would you give? I’m sure, we have bottomless wishes or things that we want to have in life. Whether it’s a status, money or (maybe) someone? Maybe for us who watched Aladdin and the [...]

Learning from Janet Jackson

Kartika Angkawijaya — Wed, 16 Feb 2011 22:21:12 +0000

Yesterday, I listened to a podcast of Morgan Piers show where he’s interviewing Janet Jackson. Like all others celebrities, Janet also shares some of her secrets of her life. So, it’s very enjoying breakfast to listen to the “soft” voice of Morgan Piers and Janet Jackson. (I’m not trying to promote any apps) You can [...]

That plan is perfect, but..

Kartika Angkawijaya — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 10:00:14 +0000

Do you like to make a plan? Or do you prefer to have someone plan for you? Not about your life, it’s about what happened in daily life, like going on a trip, throwing a party, or organizing event? The first time I entered my university life, I was fascinated with the seniors who arrange [...]

The day when I didn’t get what I want

Kartika Angkawijaya — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 00:18:03 +0000

On many occasions in my life, I didn’t get what I want. Below are some of the big lost in my life (and some big found too). I hope you bare with me, since it’s going to be a bit long than usual and I hope that you can find these stories helpful. The story [...]

On one step closer to our dream

Kartika Angkawijaya — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 02:25:02 +0000

Below is the dialogue excerpt between Ria Torres and Dr. Cal Lightman from one of the “Lie to Me” episodes I watched, Lightman (L): Look, what do you wanna be when you grow up? Torres (T): I am grown-up. (L): Terrific. what are you? (T): I’m–i’m a– (L): You’re on your way to becoming one of the [...]

On shortening words

Kartika Angkawijaya — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 14:05:15 +0000

In my personal experience, writing in nice proper form also helps me to sort things out from my head. Like a brief pause. A pause to question myself. Do I really need to type this to my friend? Will the information be useful for them? Or we can say also a way to evaluate our thinking. Because when we’re such in a hurry, or maybe when some emotions are involved, we may say unnecessary things too..

my (not typical) weekend – final

Kartika Angkawijaya — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 11:45:37 +0000

On Sunday, It was 10 a.m when I came out from my bedroom. Ugh! I was the last one who woke up, almost. Apparently, I was the second. Well, I felt a bit weird when I woke up late, but anyway, these two days were really made me tired. Ironing the laundry form previous day [...]

Pride

Kartika Angkawijaya — Tue, 23 Sep 2008 12:31:18 +0000

Work harassment! I’m striking a complaint. Haha I was snowed by quite a lot of work since my second week settlement which is two months ago. My peace and relax live was robbed by the harshness of working life. I’m not trying to exaggerate my situation. At first, I was quite happy since I didn’t [...]
