[ring ring ring] Picking up the phone and I heard someone asked to speak to me, it’s Jenny, my company-soon-to-be HR. I can sense the exciting emotions from her voice, telling me that she received letter from MoM (Ministry of Manpower) regarding my application status. I was accepted. I was preparing my lunch at that time, just barely finished putting all the ingredients into the rice cooker. I was cooking brown rice with brocolli and carrot, and steamed egg. Then […]

For just one more time
In one cloudy foggy morning in Singapore, I woke up after rolling myself over, took my gear from my drawer, strangely, I felt my muscle was fine no sore Morning chit chat with my fellow housemates, they go for a morning shower one by one, they need to go to work, it’s another day to go I bid goodbye to them, press the lift down button, reach the first floor, and I pause for a while
Celebrating my brother success
This morning I received a very good news from a friend in Surabaya, my home town. My brother was in a front page of national newspaper, Jawa Pos, for his book. I just barely spoke to him the day before, well, I called my parents since somehow both of them texted me so I decided to give them a call too.
A day to enjoy
I woke up quite late today, around 9 am. Yesterday, I came home around 130 am in the morning which I believe broke my all the time record from Indonesia-Melbourne-Singapore. I never came home that late early in the morning. I’m not a night person and yet not so morning person either. Well, I consider myself as average person. 🙂

I searched using gothere.sg, and found out that I need around 40 minutes to go there by MRT and […]
Just to be..
Be Well Be Happy Be Safe Be Willing Be Able Be Loved Be Wild Be Helpful Be Yourself and through it all, just remember to JUST TO BE Those words were on my farewell card from one of my best friends Maree from Australia. I met her for the first time from Monash International Student Friendship Program. The Monash staff, Renee, matched us up because we live on the same road differs by blocks. She told us that ours is […]
Me and my quiet time
Celia’s, my roommate’s alarm rings at 7 every morning because she goes to work about 8. As usual, I wakes up too. Well, since I used to wake up early anyway. We’re having breakfast, chatting – sometimes continuing what we talked yesterday or maybe talking about something which comes up from the Channel News Asia. Then she offs to work and here I am, alone. I got job as web developer within a week in Singapore. It’s quite fast according […]
Inspire and inspiration
These are inspirational quotes that I found from a site (which is I forgot ^.^). I hope can inspire you though The universe is one great kindergarten for man. Everything that exists has brought with it its own peculiar lesson. The mountain teaches stability and grandeur; the ocean immensity and change. Forests, lakes, and rivers, clouds and winds, stars and flowers, stupendous glaciers and crystal snowflakes–every form of animate or inanimate existence, leaves its impress upon the soul of man. […]
