So, this is it. We are at year end, or rather the last month of this year. It’s still first week, isn’t it? A little early to do it, no? This post will be a long one. As these are dedicated to few moments in 2017. Well, I think it’s never too early for anything, as having too much time sometimes make me procrastinate more. First, about fandom. Ever since I watched Thor Ragnarok, tumblr and Pinterest had sucked my […]
Year: 2017
Breaking out from our shell
Last week we have a year end dinner with colleagues and as usual, there was an award presentation for long service with the company. One of them is our top leader. In his acceptance speech, he said that he was quite laid back person until his wife decided to quite her work, to focus on their family. He added that his wife was having a good career, better than him. At that point of time. Her sacrifice made him able […]
The Perks of Being a Wallflower
I thought this is a teen drama like Juno, but I was wrong. It was deeper than just a drama. This movie drew my attention while browsing what movie I should watch during flight to Shanghai because of Emma Watson and Ezra Miller. You know Emma Watson, but Ezra caught my attention because of The Flash in Justice League. And with Ant-Man inside too. There are many memorable lines, but there are two which I find very memorable: One, which […]
Mid week random thought
After watching Thor Ragnarok I found a new MarvelOTP #Thorki I used to adore #Clintasha who is portmanteau from Clint Barton and Natasha Romanov Anyway with the army of Marvel fan in Tumblr or Pinterest, it’s easy to be sucked in into world of shipping, really. You can find many pairings too. Then I saw a post saying “when you shipped your OTP, it’s actually something that you look for in your relationship” (I can’t seem to be able to […]
My first “ultra” run
This is the last sport check list item in 2017 to be cleared, and it’s a huge one too. People say close it with a bang. So I guess this is mine for 2017. Usually I plan my sport till mid year and leave the second half for the non-sport resolution but I notice that I was slacking off, really, in 2016. So I’m trying to spread it out till end of year. As I’m going to the event in […]
The essence for our growth
I: Isn’t it fun getting better at the job? C: it is I: isn’t that the main strand of your career that you’re getting better at the job C: well, it could only get better, it couldn’t get worse Inspiration of the week is a chat by Cate (C) Blanchett and Sir Ian (I) McKellen in Actors on Actors show (link) They were discussing about things they are not so good at (geez, they are so humble, o’rite). Cate replied […]
Inspiration of the week
Sometimes it’s good not to have too much time because it gives you too much time to think. When you have extra time, you have room for doubts and you will not listen to your instinct – Tom Hiddleston in conversation hosted by SAG-AFTRA Foundation (link) I was listening to some of his appearance in past talk show because I was curious about his work outside MCU. And after few talks, I feel I’m sharing the same sentiment with Zachary Levi […]
Do you remember why you started something?
Last week when I participated in a rally run with few office colleagues, and one of them was one of the youngest in the office. He said, he’s hoping he can be converted to a perm staff as he knows more people, he started to feel like home. And I can feel his enthusiasm or spirit. (As if in Dragon Ball anime?) It’s easy to start something, but to keep doing it consistently is hard. That’s what I thought before, […]
