Launching Surat Kabar: "Seputar Indonesia"
Launchingnya harian "Seputar Indonesia" -- korannya RCTI , istilah gw ....
Apa yang ada di benak gw pertama kali liat ini ...
Agak kaget, dan terus terang yah, gw kok feeling bahwa
group ini agak serakah gitu ....
Kenapa gw bilang gitu ...
Gw pikir groupnya RCTI, GLOBAL , and TPI itu udah termasuk
group yang kuat di bagian pertivian ... media elektronik istilahnya ...
waduh, sekarang kok masuk juga lagi ke media cetak ....
Media cetak padahal persaingan sudah cukup ketat khan
antara grupnya Kompas, Tempo, Suara Pembaharuan, dll ...
Memang sih, sekrang persaingan udah bebas tanpa hambatan,
tapi mustinya lebih concern dikit khan boleh ...
Yah, itulah bisnis !!!
Face it, Competition Everywhere !
Pantes aja Koran Kompas mengadakan Pembaharuan/
Changing di Style-nya ... (btw, bravo untuk Change nya,
gw personally sih lebih suka dengan yang baru - enak liatnya)
It does Ring A Bell right now ... "Click" - connect lah jadinya. ...
Baru berpikir gitu, trus pemimpin "Seputar Indonesia"
yang ternyata juga Dirut RCTI , sempet juga menjelaskan bahwa
SI hadir untuk melengkapi bukan menyaingi ... something like that,
kalo gak salah dia bilang .... berarti emang pemikiran gw juga bener
adanya ....
Melengkapi or Menyaingi, whatever the Term is almost the SAME,
bukan ???
Anyway, kalo untuk kita pembaca - the reader, makin banyak , memang
makin baik, karena tambah warna, tambah sumber, it means more
choices and varieties we can choose from ....
OK ... Suksses untuk Koran "Seputar Indonesia" ... Moga-moga, seperti
kata AA Gym tadi koran ini BAL (Benar, Akurat dan Lengkap)
Untuk Kompas , koran favorit gw, hehehe ... kayaknya juga gak akan
ditinggalkan sih ama pelanggannya, krn udah cukup bonafide
and senior ...
Sementara ACaranya sendiri berlangsung Meriah mungkin gak,
but kesannya Exclusif karena hadir juga orang-orang nomor 1 dan 2 nya Indonesia ...
Presiden SBY , menteri2, Gubernur Bang Yos, tentu gak ketinggalan,
dan banyak lagi duta2 negara sahabat .... Wah banget, khan ...
Peresmian koran aja dihadiri presiden ...
Plus Bapak SBY kasih sambutan pula lagi ....
Bintang Penghibur adalah opf course
anak-anak kaderan e stasiun tv itu ...
ada IDOL (non Delon) - Lucky, Winda, Bona, Nania
KDI - Siti, Nassar, sapa lagi, 2 orang ..
lawakan dari API
TEssa Kaunang, Tiiti DJ, Uthe,
dan MCnya siapa lagi kalo acara2 gini,
pastinya yang juga top : Indy barens and Ferdy Hasan
QuiZZes, QuiZZes ... I certainly Love them!
Beberapa pertanyaan, jawabannya agak gak pas gitu,
but this is what they come up ....
This one is about my taste of Music, they say .... Yeah, talking about music ... I do think that 80''s music were much better than the music now .... Even until now, everytime I listen music from 80's i still enjoy listening .... Early 90's music are also as good as 80's for my ears
Now, I know that I am more Right Brain person ....
Are You Right or Left Brained? That's enough for now ... Got to go home |
The Down Side
Killing time , sambil nunggu waktu yang tepat
untuk pulang ke rumah .....
Males nich, minggu2 ini, macetnya ruarrr biasa kalo malem.
Padahal kalo paginya sih normal2 aja, bahkan cenderung
lancar perjalanan .....
REkan gw termasuk boss kecil lagi down,
biasa deh, masalah yang memang the unsolvable problem
in our company ....
Setiap kali abis meeting dgn that company,
always pulangnya rata2 buat gak semangat ......
Well, I can only say .....
"Life is hard, but we have to survive
from time to tome. Problems are here to make us
more mature and growing up. and We can be strong after all this"
yeah, Classic Comment from me....
it is very easy to say, but the fact is hard to do and hard to accept....
kayaknya mereka juga jadi males dengernya,
Yup, a maybe 10 minutes meeting, just telling us what the meeting was about,
Mr. H directly go straight to home , boss kecil, Mr. I don't know where to go...
the others are also going somewhere ...
Tinggal gw , back to my room, deals with another routine works of mine ....
Soo , in the middle of kebetean gw,
iseng-iseng blogwalking n find a link for quizzes .......
This is one of the result .......
Don't know how in the heck they can come up with this conclusion ...]
interesting sih ....... but bener or gaknya , gak tau juga deh .....
beberapa maybe close to my character, but others ...hhhmmm...
The Keys to Your Heart |
You are attracted to those who have a split personality - cold as ice on the outside but hot as fire in the heart. |
In love, you feel the most alive when your partner is patient and never willing to give up on you. |
You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change. |
You would be forced to break up with someone who was insecure and in constant need of reassurance. |
Your ideal relationship is open. Both of you can talk about everything... no secrets. |
Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment. |
You think of marriage as something that will confine you. You are afraid of marriage. |
In this moment, you think of love as something you thirst for. You'll do anything for love, but you won't fall for it easily. |

American Cities That Best Fit You: |
55% Austin |
50% Atlanta |
50% Chicago |
50% New York City |
45% Boston |
Never been to Austin, Atlanta before... so really have no idea of how to live there ...
Kalo the other - is Actually quite nice to live in, but NYC i thought, is just a bit too alive for me ...
I don't mind Washington DC ...but NYC, not good to live

COMPLEMENT for the Day
kalo kerjaan kita bener ... jadi sekaligus tunjukin aja hasilnya deh ...
supaya boss percaya ama kemampuan kita ....
Bukan boss gw, kalo gak pake acara ngaret lama ...
udah biasa lah ... tunggu punya tunggu ....
lunch hour tentunya dah lewat ....
mo makan dulu takut boss tau2 nongol ....
akhirnya jam 2-an maybe, boss baru tiba ....
Yah, as usual, komen here and there,
but yang penting the Point is :
he likes it ...
He said ... Congratulation, yah ...
Sudah bagus ... ditunjuk ini dan itu ...
Sambil ngacungin jempolnya ... Udah Wooonderfuulll istilah boss ....
Jelas gw ama boss kecil cukup happy lah ....
Bukan hanya itu aja,
kalo buat gw, bisa buat Big Boss happy juga satu kepuasan tersendiri...
and kepuasan yang besar ... krn akhir2 ini dia yang udah tua gitu,
masih pula dibuat pusing urusan2 Perusahaan2nya yang laen ....
cukup membuat gw lebih semangat.
It obviously doesn't come often....
but when it comes, it Makes you feel
alive and content ...
What COLOR is MY HEART

A Thought
Aaahh, cowok yang satu ini ,
selalu aja bikin gw meneteskan air mata ,
entah terharu ato kasihan ato apa yach ....
Moga2 bukan kasihan, becoz he definitely do not
need my pity .... he needs a prayer not pity from me...
Kadang sempet mikir juga sih bagaimana future
lifenya dia ....
Dulu waktu pertama baca suratnya ,
gw juga sampe sobbing ....
masih muda, not bad looking, tapi badannya begitu lemah ....
padahal anak ini sopan, nice banget,
baek ato gak , mungkin gw gak terlalu tau ...
tapi yang jelas dari cerita - ceritanya dia ....
dia anak yang imannya sangat kuat ....
apapun yang dia lagi kerjakan,
selalu terucap di kata2nya kalo dia gak takut
untuk jalan lagi, krn Tuhan Yesus selalu mengiringi dia ...
Perjuangannya melawan penyakit,
rasanya masih terus harus dilalui ....
walopun keadaan dia sekarang sudah jauh berbeda
dengan keadaan dia beberapa waktu yang lalu ...
Denger lagi cerita2 pas waktu dia di luar kota,
jauh dari papa mama, n selalu aja penyakitnya kambuh,
sampe beberapa waktu itu bagi dia udah nearly the end ....
Makanya itu dia sampe sekarang masih bersyukur
kalo dia masih diperbolehkan hidup ...
bisa menikmati waktu-waktu ,
meskipun banyak pantangan makanan ini itu,
pantangan apa-apa lagi ....
but he still keeps going on ....
SEperti yang sering gw bilang ke dia...
My wishes for him is very sincere,
becoz I really want him to get well completely,
be healthy all the time ....
so that he can live a normal life .
LOVE DOESN'T COME CHEAP
the right phrase to describe the movie:
THE WEDDING DATE
And I think I'd miss you even if we never met. |
I come to fall in Love with Both of Them
Tipe film kayak gini, udah sering dan banyak banget
anyway ... The Wedding date , critanya cukup simple and ringan ..
Tentang KAt yang ingin menghadiri wedding adeknya,
tapi karena bestman nya adalah ex cowoknya ....
Kat pengen kasih statement ke Jefry , ex cowoknya itu...
dia pengen Jefry feeling regret ....
Makanya Kat hired an escort ... Nick namanya ...
pay 6000 dollars to accompany her as her boyfriend of course.
Situasi bertempat di London ....
seperti biasa, sebelum wedding ada acara ini dan itu,
rehearsal ini dan itu ....
Dari awal cerita mulai, kayaknya akhir acara dah bisa gw tebak
juga ... cerita-cerita kayak gini biasanya happy ending ....
Kejadian-kejadian Lucu , sweet moment ....
Sebenernya kapan ya kira2 Nick mulai started to fall in love with Kat ...
Entah bener or gak, kalo Asumsi gw adalah pada waktu Kat pulang "bachelor party",
keadaan mabok .... tapi bingung juga yach, mabok or gak sih ....
soalnya dia sempet berpikiran untuk ambil uang di atm dari kartu2 nya dia,
untuk bayar Nick setelah dia have sex ama Nick ....
kalo dia ada pikiran kayak gitu, berarti dia gak begitu mabok ...
Tapi pada waktu bangun pagi, Kat seolah gak sadar apa yang terjadi
malem itu .... hhmmm...
Kliatannya Nick agak feeling gimana gitu, little dissappointed maybe,
waktu pas Kat tanya ttg semalem,
padahal Nick udah siapin cofee and something for breakfast ...
Tambah tersinggung lagi, waktu liat uang segitu banyak di dompet Kat
Mungkin saat itu, Nick feeling that he starts to like her for real ....
Anyway, film kayak ini emang selalu cukup enak buat ditonton ...
Gak perlu mikir2 panjang ... kadang ketawa, kadang feeling romantic,
ringan n gak stressful, easy to digest ... Walopun semua jalan ceritanya udah ketebak.
" The hardest thing is loving someone and then having the courage to let them love you back. But if you know her shit and she knows yours, and at the end of the day if you still would rather give up than try, nothings ever going to be worth it. Maybe think about it this way... you go back, you get to spend the rest of your life having really great makeup sex."
Alexander Sriwiyono is back
Cowok yang satu ini, denger suara dan advicenya dia,
mungkin jauh lebih enak n adem daripada ngeliat in person....
Bukan berarti tampangnya jelek ... gak kok
Gw sendiri gak pernah ketemu in person,
but dulu2 suka liat di program2 tv ...
But yang penting dari Mas Alex ini memang lebih
ke kata2 nya yang selalu soo Wise and full of wisdom gitu lho ....
Pokoknya kalo istilah kita2 orang,
Cowok yang Sangat Bijaksana ...
Beberapa saat yang lalu ,
pas dia bilang mau ke London ...
wah, sempet sedih juga .....
Makanya penggantinya dia gak pernah gw denger,
krn gak gitu pas buat gw .....
Kaget banget tadi pagi pas dengerin cosmo seperti biasa,
lho kok ada suaranya Mas Alex nich ....
Sayang banget ! Dengerinnya udah ampir jam 9 an,
jadi acaranya dah mo abis ....hiks, hiks, hiks ...
Padahal masih Kuangen banget ama advicenya Mas Alex
Tadi pagi temanya mengenai : Curhat-curhatan ....
Soalnya kalo sama mas Alex, semua problem itu kayaknya jadi ringan
n enteng aja tuh , gak ada problem yang berat ....
Unfortunately, begitu dibilang Welcome home, Mas Alex ...
mas Alex nya bilang ... for temporary only ....yach ..... !!!!

Busung Lapar
bolak balik channel di tv,
lagi gak pengen liat cable malem ini ....
terus distasiun apa gitu ...
ada beberapa anak yang tergeletak di ranjang di rumahnya...
tinggal tulang dibalut kulit doank ...
Gosh .. really .... makes me cry.
Kalo dipikir-pikir lagi jaman sekarang kok masih ada aja yach
kemiskinan sampai seperti itu ...
What an Irony !!
Nah, sekarang yang korup-korup itu kok yach gak mikir gitu
ternyata Indonesia ada juga bagian "Ethiopia"nya ...
daripada uangnya dikorup, bukannya lebih baik didistribusikan
untuk orang-orang yang busung lapar ini ...
Serius , Kasihan banget lho kalo liat tampang anak2nya ...
Padahal kulitnya putih-putih bersih ...
tapi aduuh, makan cuman gaple ...
bener gak sih itu ... trus darimana nutrisinya ...
boro-boro kok nutrisi, Kenyang aja belum ........
Sedih banget , emang ....
Gw selama ini selalu berpikir kalo pendidikan di Indonesia yang parah
makanya I set my mind and my goal that
in my near future, I would love to have a Reading Room --
where all kids can read whatever books they want to read in there...
I was thinking of even making some programs for kids,
watching video, creativity play, all kinds of things that would get
their interest to "Knowledge"
It's Informal Education ....
Of course, Free of Charge ...
and i would have it in some small areas where kids can't afford to buy books.
But sekarang, ngliat keadaan Busung Lapar itu dimana-mana ...
trus gimana lagi yah .... Mau dibawa kemana negeri kita tersayang ini ...
Can't EASE MY MInd
let's try to look inside of me...
what seems to be the problem in my mind ...
This past two days,
I completely pass the days with chatting with one of my friend
and browsing the internet ....
reading others' blogs ....
just i don't know what did I do ...
If only A vacation to Bali would be Very REfreshing !!
I really feel that I get bored and lazy
too much going on at works ....
too many problems at works that can not be solved...
motivation of staffs are down,
cash flows problem,
still there is that "Matahari" problem that never been solved ..
But one thing always Make Me Still Not Worried
is that my Belief that GOD Would Never LEave Me Walking by myself
so HE won't ever Let Me down and FAll ....
Yeah !! We still Survive Right Now Just Becoz of He Love Us a lot ....
I have to Learn More How to EASE MY MIND ..

478th BIRTHDAY Of JAKARTA
Dimana-mana semua ibukota kayak gitu khan ...
Pendapat gw mengenai Jakarta ...
Kota ini biarpun setiap hari Traffic Jam everywhere,
Air polluted, udara gak pernah ada segernya,
banjir periodically yang selalu buat takut juga ...
Jakarta biar penuh dengan problem
but yang jelas, kota gw tercinta ...
Why ??
karena kota-kota lain cenderung lebih sepi,
cenderung lebih Not Alive,
cenderung Entertainment lebih sedikit,
cenderung Susah cari barang apa2 ...
kalo Jakarta ....
Mau cari Mall or Plaza2 kayak di luar negeri,
semua gak kalah kok ....
cuman beda ketertiban dan kedisiplinanan orang2nya aja ...
Ini hasil dari yang gw dapet dari sedikit "keisengan" tadi siang ...
WHO AM I ... Just For FUN
Just for Fun aja sih ....
so this is the Result ....
Your Icecream Flavour is... French Vanilla! |
You're a smooth and silky suave type! You exude class and you believe in tradition. A classical taste who doesn't like things to be too flashy or showy. Climb the Eiffel tower of taste with a spoonfull of you! Oui Oui! |

Gosh , I followed the whole episodes of the Apprentice
the one that showed in Indosiar ....
and I have to Miss The Last Episode ....
They made the Last Episodes to be 3 weeks ...
that was just too long ...
Now ... Who was the Winner to be the Apprentice ...
Bill with the Golf Tournamen
or
Kwame with the Jessica Simpson's Show ...
For me, Kwame have more managerial ability,
although BIll is as compatible as Kwame ...
it just that Bill tend to get too detail being a Manager ...
But Kwame have Sucks Employee especially that
Black Woman, she is the kind of person who can't be relied on
at all in all her works ....
and that's the part that Kwame fail , I think
becoz he can't choose a good employee ...
Sure like to know Who the Winner is !!!!

Artika Sari Devi and miss Universe
I just get darn confused of the people ....
What is the Fuzz About ....
About the Swim Suit , about she is too beautiful
or what gitu lho .....
ada acara Famous to Famous barusan ,,
bintang tamunya Artika ....
Artika, for me ... siapakah dia ...
Cewek yang Smart , and Have Kharisma ...
Kliatan dari cara dia bicara, cewek yang punya kecantikan
physic and inner beauty ...
She has Brain and Beauty ...
jawaban2nya selalu Enak di denger,
bukan jawaban munafik, kayak kebanyakan gw denger
anggota2 pemerintahan ini itu lagi bicara,
tapi dia bicara yang the "truth" ...
So what gitu lho, kalo dia ke Miss Universe ...
Gak pa pa donk ....
Buktikan kalo Indonesia juga punya Putri Indonesia
yang juga cantik, smart dalam otak dan tingkah laku,
bukti bahwa Indonesia punya cewek yang ternyata
membangakan negaranya sendiri ....
Bukan hanya Indonesia yang sekarang cuman terkenal
dengan terorisnya ....
malu donk kita ... masa punya negara cuman dibilang
negara yang banyak sarang teroris ....
nah, ini kesempatan baik buat Indonesia ...
Lagipula Miss Universe itu tugasnya gak hanya
mejeng kiri kanan lenggak lenggok ....
Tapi mereka juga banyak Misi Kemanusiaan dan Sosial,
Misi Pariwisata ... so banyak lah misinya ....
Koment gw untuk Artika,
Maju aja Terus deh ...
Hidup Cewek Indonesia ...
Dan perjuangan mu emang gak sia-sia khan ternyata ....
Terpilih di Big 15 of all the contestants around the world ...
Satu-satunya negara dari Asia juga khan kalo gak salah ....
Way to Go, ARtika !!!
Maju Aja lah ....
Kita emang Harus maju ke Jaman Modern ,
Jangan Berpedoman terus ke Masa Indo Lampau,
karena kalo kita nengok ke belakang terus,
Kita gak tau kalo udah banyak orang Nyalip kita,
Kalah Saingan ....
Kalopun Mau liat ke Belakang Sesekali,
Tengoklah dari Kaca Spion, supaya Gak Nabrak2,
and supaya Gak Ketinggalan sama yang Lainnya ....
Betul kata Artika ...
Miss Universe for Indonesia ,
ada 4 B ...
Beauty, Brain, Behaviour, and Brave ....
