I’m sure that once a while, a question like “how can I connect better with that person?” popped inside our head. A friend who lets you to become yourself without the needs to worry is a gem. And what are the path that we need to walk to reach that stage? There are many. But there are two basic values that we need to have: honesty and sincerity.

Thought on social media
Have you heard about Aston Kutcher twitter incident recently? You can check it out here and here, if you haven’t, and his post in his blog. What is social media anyway? And why is it such a big trend now? I’m not a social media expert, nor working as a social media spokesperson. But I use them, not only one but quite a lot. Let me share how my “addiction” is started. Personal branding I started working professionally as web developer, […]
What photography taught me so far
The first time I held a camera was in my primary six. I was going to a school excursion and all students need to write a report of what we learned from the trip. The report needs to have picture inside it. I brought a Fuji film camera – the point and shoot of that era. My dad taught me how to change the film but I still made the film burned because I opened it under the sun. Lesson […]
Never satisfied
When we are busy, we want some free time to do things we want to do; When we are free, we forgot to do that and busy looking for something else; When we are alone, we want someone or some friends or family to be around; When we are with them, we neglected them and acted like we didn’t need them.

Thoughts on Apple
On remembering Steve Jobs, I remember the first time I heard about his name was after I graduated. A lecturer in campus showed his commencement speech in Stanford. I already felt that his speech was inspiring, really. I couldn’t imagine how thy speech can influence me so deep in the future. On knowing my campus is part of Apple campus, I know that Apple stuff is pretty unaffordable in Indonesia. Unless you make a fair earning. Last time I visited […]
6 October 2011
Today will never be an ordinary day any more, because of Steve Jobs. Apple co founder and ex CEO just passed away. There are lots of expressions people wrote in the Internet about his death. So, I will just write my piece here in my blog. I woke up around 4 in the morning today and I didn’t hear (or see) any news from my twitter stream, until my friend messaged me in Facebook‘s messenger. She said, she just heard […]
3 words to define yourself
This morning I stumbled into my friend’s blog and I saw his page title. He described himself with his roles and he changed it over the time, based on what his most recent roles are. Then I have a thought, most of the time we tend to describe ourselves with our role. For example I’m a nerd, because I code most of the time. Or, we say we are a gamer, because we like to play games. So, let’s play […]
