Nice = Wise ?? NoT

It never occurred to me before,

but i just realize and experience it myself

I would've thought that

there is nothing wrong to be a nice person..

well,,,, now i have to think twice about it ...

being a nice person NOT EQUAL to a Wise Person...

I would even say Far From ...

I experienced it several times,

someone is being nice to everybody ....

there is nothing wrong with that...

but if this person is actually the person that everybody looks up to...

then the comes out become very different ....

it's hard to say things without saying the exact things,

but anyway....

that's all i wanted to say ...

maybe i am being oversensitive or overreact or just being completely screwed up...

I didn't want to believe it myself at the first time i experienced it,

but it did happen...

n believe it or not...

it does happen again,,,

and again....

I get very disappointed by a totally nice person ...

how could it be ...

oh, well,,, it just happen again n again n again ...

i am soo weird, but that's me ...

how can i feel neglected becoz someone is being nice to other ...

it's not a jealousy, it's not an envy,

it's just become all bundled up ...

oh, well,

i am past the disappointment anyway...

whoever you want to be nice to, let it be ...

after all everything there it's yours,

i just thought i am being a bit more concerned or worried

bout this or that ...

but i guess if you don't seem to mind,

something happened like it happens now,

then it would all be up to you ....

Korea's waterparks

Korea's four waterparks receive international recognition

Date: October 18, 2008


Caribbean Bay
Caribbean Bay
It is true that many of the world뭩 most popular and well-known waterparks are located in the United States, so it may come as a surprise to hear that Korea뭩 four big waterparks have made it to the list of the world뭩 top 20, with Caribbean Bay at Everland making third place.?

According to a joint survey by the Themed Entertainment Association and Economic Research Associates, Caribbean Bay attracted 1.4 million visitors last year, ranking third in terms of the number of visitors.

Disneyland 뭩 Typhoon Lagoon in the United States ranked first, with over two million visitors, followed by another U.S. waterpark: Blizzard Beach in Miami, with 1.9 million people.

Meanwhile, Korea뭩 three other popular waterparks also made the list.

Ocean World was in 8th place, with 900,000 visitors last year, while Deoksan Spa Castle ranked 11th and Seorak Waterpia 13th.

What is also noteworthy about this is that Korea is the only Asian country that has more than two parks on the list.


Caribbean Bay
Caribbean Bay
Caribbean Bay opened in July 1996, offering a world-class indoor and outdoor water park all year round.

The world뭩 largest water amusement complex can accommodate up to 15,000 people at a time.

It is located in Everland, the country뭩 biggest amusement park and the world뭩 10th largest theme park.

It is conveniently located in the city of Yongin, Gyeonggi-do (Gyeonggi Province), just about one-hour drive from southern Seoul, so it gets lots of tired souls from the capital city and the metropolitan area.

While adults can enjoy the rip-roaring rides like Adventure, River Way and Water Bobsleigh Rides that twist and turn all throughout the park, children can have fun on their own in the children뭩 pool area.

In the middle of Caribbean Bay is the nation뭩 largest wave pool, 120 meters wide and 104 meters long. There, an artificial wave 2.4 meters high washes up onto a sandy beach. It is big enough for actual surfing.

All the necessary equipment for surfing and fun comes with the admission fee.

This year-round water park also offers restaurants, cafes and other rest areas.

As the weather gets colder, visitors might also be interested in taking advantage of the spa and sauna facilities that are available.


Spa Castle
Spa Castle
In the meantime, Ocean World also boasts state-of-the-art facilities.

With Egypt-style d?or featuring decorative deserts and oases, it makes visitors feel as though they have just entered an exotic pharaohnic world.

Spa Castle is the first spa-themed resort in Korea. It offers facilities such as a healing-therapy center and a water spa theme park as well. Aside from the hot springs facilities, visitors may ride the rapids of Torrent River, the Master Blaster waterslide, and other attractions as well.

Seorak Waterpia
is located close to some of the largest tourist attractions on the east coast, including Mt. Seorak. The water park뭩 Spa Valley uses only Seoraksan Mountain뭩 100% natural hot spring waters for its jasmine and lemon spas, as well as other outdoor baths.

Full Power of Energy,
Full Strength,
Full Positive Spirit,
Extra Healthy Condition,

and Only HIM understand me deeply and truly
about what I want, what I require, what I need ...

The Best of All ...
Like what HE already gave to me Last Year before My Birthday
Once Again HE answer my Prayer by
Showing HIS Love to me through somebody else's before My Birthday...

Once Again,
I can only speak ...
Thank You, GOD

PERAYAAN DEMOKRASI

Perayaan demokrasi hari ini di tps 18,
which is tps dimana gw memilih,
berjalan sangat santai,
tentunya gw nyontreng di tempat nyokap,
krn memang ktp masih alamat sana...

dateng be2 ke tps ama mama...
mama dah kayak mo pergi ke mall aja,
pake baju rapi yah, layaknya orang mo pergi keluar gitu...
on the other hand , of course, gw sante aja...
masih pake baju training abiz lari pagi td,
(ooppps ... correction not lari pagi, gw khan ga bisa lari,
maksudnya jalan pagi,,,,)
cuman ganti kaosnya aja, krn dah keringetan, hehehe ...
kebanyakan orang dateng ke tps td jg
pake baju biasa aja , ga terlalu rapi2 amat ...
soalnya tps kita jg tps biasa,
ga ada seleb, ato political icon ..
paling tetangga skitar githu ....

the thing about this legislative election...
it gets very confusing since there are soo many party and also soo many legislative ...
i know which political party i want to be my representative..
and hopefully the ones that i elected have quite big responsibility
to think about what they represent when they will talk about
some issues which will be brought up in the future...

anyway, after looking at all the photo pictures,
comes two persons i recognized from the same political party
which i wanted to choose. ...
so i choose that person....
and hopefully making the rite decision ...
it's better to choose somebody whom i know,
rather that choose somebody i don't know at all ...

ooo..talking bout the whole election system this period ..
mama dapet 2 DPT .. same name but one name has the MTh ,
and other doesn't ...
sempet juga check, check and recheck ulang di tps...
pk rt sempet nanya2 kenapa doble,
my mom cm jawab khan dapetnya dr pk rt ..
hahahahah ..

ada jg bapak2 yg bilang ,,,
wah kalo double, bisa juga disalahgunakan nich ...
untunglah, ini cuman sekitaran rt2 lingkungan kita,
jd mrk cukup trustworthy not to do that. ...
hopefully, hehehe...
who can guarantee anyway, rite ....

well... the Quick Count is Not Yet Finished..
but looks like The Democrat Party who get the Biggest Votes ...
(of course lah, if Obama won, i already guessed at the time that Democrat Party in
Indonesia would also win) ...
the 2nd and 3rd is PDIp and GolKar.

Congratulation for all of them ....
I am awaiting for the Presidential Elections on July elections ...

Mother's Love .. Eternity n Infinity

Maybe this was about a week ago or so ...

the aircon in my house was in problem,

Air con supposed to be cool or cold,

but the cool air wasn't there ...

my son wanted to sleep @ my mom's house,

since my brother and his family were going to Jerusalem

so he thinks that it's better if he stayed there,

bcoz my son couldn't sleep at all without the proper aircon....

Since he is there,

so i thought i also went there to accompany him,

and also brought my daughter along with me ...

soo rite after going back from work,

i went back home,

prepare my clothes and everything,

and drove to my mom's ...

Called my mom from work,

so that she is not asleep yet ..

Arrived at my mom's ,

my mom already prepared a warm water in the bathroom,

for me to take a bath ...

and already warmed up the food for me to eat ...

I forgot, how this routine feels very nice, comforting, and soothing,

especially since it was prepared by my mom ...

of course, usually this is just a small thing that she usually did

for both of us, my brother and me, when we were still living with her ...

when i woke up in the morning,

early morning around 5.30 am,

i already smell the nice aroma from the kitchen,,,

and my mom was in the middle of making breakfast for us

to eat before i go to work and before my kids go to school. ...

and she also prepared three luncheon box ..

for all the three of us ...

Terpikir oleh gw ...

sometimes even rite now, i am already as a mom for my kids,

i don't do as much as my mom usually do for me ...

Orangtua jaman dulu spertinya memang lebih rajin dalam hal seperti ini,

yg mana sekarang rata2 gw dah nyerahin sebagian kerjaan kita sama pembokat

di rumah ....

Kasih ibu sepanjang masa ... kekal dan tak terbatas ...

walaupun setua apa gw ini, tetep di mata ibu gw,

gw hanyalah seorang anak juga ...

That's Mother's Love ... Eternity and Infinity ...

hopefully I will be able to do the same to my kids

no matter how grown they will be later on ....

These 2 beautiful mother pictures are taken from one's blog...
which is from Alissa and Rae's blog at myspace..

THE RESULT of All QuiZZes

ini hasil dari keisengan gw di hari minggu siang ini ...

awal dr kemarin malem, sudah berencana utk pergi
swimming di waterbom pik...
sudah mantapppp banget dengan this decision...

ok... we slept ....
this morning when we go to church ...
i started to tell my weird dream that i had about this place ...
and guess what, my son also had another weird dream about this place...

so i say to my son,,,
ok, the decision whether we are going or not
would be after we finished the service at the church...

after having thought about it,
all of us decided of not going,,
becoz maybe it's a sign from God that we shouldn't go...

akhirnya inilah yg dikerjakan oleh kita semua ...
we go to one of the warnet near my house
both of my kids play the auditions
and i just rambling here and there,
and checking blog after blog...
fb -- facebook ofcourse ..

quizzes, that's the most favorite things to do
when i have nothing to do


These are the Results:
The links doesn't come out rite... i'll fix it later

1. For Where you should go for living
http://apps.facebook.com/qwhere-should-hbdhh/index.php?src=self

New York City: You are tired of having to drive an hour just to find a McDonald's. You are so ready to get out there and conquer the concrete jungles and climb a skyscraper. You don't want to be a farmer; you want to go find something exciting, acting maybe, or get into business and NYC is the perfect place for you.

hhmm... exciting city, i know ... used to admire all the signage and all the big and giant billboard everywhere... but maybe just a little bit too hectic, but a heavenly city for shopping for sure

2. For what kind of cook are you
http://apps.facebook.com/whatkin-qsba/index.php?src=self

Experimental cook: You love to cook, but not the ordinary foods. You're constantly changing recipes around and looking for ways to improve them. If you can find something strange, you feel compelled to try it. The more exotic the better. You love a challenge in the kitchen!


3. What's Your Body Juices?
http://www.facebook.com/ext/share.php?sid=60818542439&h=IeoZn&u=KFYdz&ref=mf

You Are Made of Orange Juice

4. For What Color is Your Heart

What Goes Around Comes Around

Gw baca cerita ini n really loved it ...
it's very true ...
This is how the world goes

Diambil dr blognya yauhui.net ...
blog nya dia bagus ,,, crita2nya bagus2, ada yg motivational, ada yg lucu n humoris, ada juga yg touching ...



Bryan hampir saja tidak melihat wanita tua yang berdiri dipinggir jalan itu, tetapi dalam cahaya berkabut ia dapat melihat bahwa wanita tua itu membutuhkan pertolongan. Lalu ia menghentikan mobil Pontiacnya di depan mobil Mecedes wanita tua itu, lalu ia keluar dan menghampirinya.

Walaupun dengan wajah tersenyum wanita itu tetap merasa khawatir, karena setelah menunggu beberapa jam tidak ada seorang pun yang menolongnya.

Apakah lelaki itu bermaksud menyakitinya?

Lelaki tersebut penampilanya tidak terlalu baik, ia kelihatan begitu memprihatinkan. Wanita itu dapat merasakan kalau dirinya begitu ketakutan, berdiri sendirian dalam cuaca yang begitu dingin, sepertinya lelaki tersebut tau apa yang ia pikirkan. Lelaki itu berkata ” saya kemari untuk membantu anda bu, kenapa anda tidak menunggu didalam mobil bukankah disana lebih hangat? oh ya nama saya Bryan.

Bryan masuk kedalam kolong mobil wanita itu untuk memperbaiki yang rusak.

Akhirnya ia selesai, tetapi dia kelihatan begitu kotor dan lelah, wanita itu membuka kaca jendela mobilnya dan berbicara kepadanya, ia berkata bahwa ia dari st louis dan kebetulan lewat jalan ini. Dia merasa tidak cukup kalau hanya mengucapkan terima kasih atas bantuan yang telah diberikan.

Wanita itu berkata berapa yang harus ia bayar, berapapun jumlahnya yang ia minta tidak menjadi masalah, karena ia membayangkan apa yang akan terjadi jika lelaki tersebut tidak menolongnya. Bryan hanya tersenyum.

Bryan tidak mengatakan berapa jumlah yang harus dibayar, karena baginya menolong orang bukanlah suatu
pekerjaan. Ia yakin apabila menolong seseorang yang membutuhkan pertolongan tanpa suatu imbalan suatu hari
nanti Tuhan pasti akan membalas amal perbuatanya.

Ia berkata kepada wanita itu ” Bila ia benar-benar ingin membalas jasanya, maka apabila suatu saat nanti
apabila ia melihat seseorang yang membutuhkan pertolongan maka tolonglah orang tersebut “…dan ingatlah pada saya”.

Bryan menunggu sampai wanita itu menstater mobilnya dan menghilang dari pandangan.

Setelah berjalan beberapa mil wanita itu melihat kafe kecil, lalu ia mampir kesana untuk makan dan beristirahat sebentar. Pelayan datang dan memberikan handuk bersih untuk mengeringkan rambutnya yang basah. Wanita itu memperhatikan sang pelayan yang sedang hamil, dan masih begitu muda. Lalu ia teringat kepada Bryan

Setelah wanita itu selesai makan dan, sang pelayan sedang mengambil kembalian untuknya, wanita itu pergi keluar secara diam-diam.

Setelah kepergiannya sang pelayan kembali, pelayan itu bingung kemana wanita itu pergi, lalu ia menemukan
secarik kertas diatas meja dan uang $1000. Ia begitu terharu setelah membaca apa yang ditulis oleh wanita
itu:

“Kamu tidak berhutang apapun pada saya karena seseorang telah menolong saya, oleh karena itulah saya menolong kamu, maka inilah yang harus kamu lakukan:

“Jangan pernah berhenti untuk memberikan cinta dan kasih sayang”.

Malam ketika ia pulang dan pergi tidur, ia berfikir mengenai uang dan apa yang di tulis oleh wanita itu.

Bagaimana wanita itu bisa tahu kalau ia dan suaminya sangat membutuhkan uang untuk menanti kelahiran
bayinya?

Ia tau bagaimana suaminya sangat risau mengenai hal ini, lalu ia memeluk suaminya yang terbaring disebelahnya dan memberikan ciuman yang lembut sambil berbisik :”semuanya akan baik-baik saja, I Love You Bryan”

“Segala sesuatu yang kita lakukan akan selalu berputar ke diri kita kembali”, therefore, don’t ever to stop to do good things in your life..

SONG MEMORIES part 1

Song memory biasanya kalo kita dengar lagu soundtrack ,
trus teringatlah kita pada si film ,
semacam itulah
ato bisa juga
Song memory lebih mengingatkan kita kepada seseorang,
yg mana pada waktu lagu itu ada satu peristiwa ntah lucu, romantis, serem, or
lainnya yang terjadi antara lagu, gw and si orang tersebut...

Tp ada juga nich Song Memories yg for me is a little weird ...
probably for most people, they only have 1 or 2 song memories...

gw punya banyak song memories,
yg kadang2 kalo dipikir,
dr song memori gw , ga terlalu connect dengan peristiwa antara orang itu dengan gw,,,
tp yang jelas, kalo gw denger song tertentu,
it simply reminds me of one person ...

gw coba list song memories gw ...

1. "On the Wings of Love" .... everytime i heard this song in the radio or whereever, I always remember Julia ... padahal seinget gw, ga ada acara or peristiwa apa2 yg ada hubungannya dengan this song to her and with me ...

2. "If Tomorrow Never Comes" by Ronan Keating  .... reminds me of  Pk.Yusuf, my good friend and also my  Manager at Diamond (long time ago) ... once again, like the previous song, there is no event whatsoever between him, me and the song...

3. "Nothing Gonna Change My Love for u" .... gw inget salah 1 pasangan abadi waktu gw di smp tarq... mrk bedua kakak kelas gw, namanya sapa gw lupa, kalo ga salah yg ce Niken n cowonya sapa lupa ... dan mrk beduapun mungkin ga kenal ma gw,,,, hehehe,,, aneh khan,,,,, tp stiap lagu ini terdengar, teringatlah wajah mrk bedua... pasalnya wkt smp, pas acara apa gitu, mrk bedua dance di lagu ini ...

4. "My Lady Valentine" ... kalo dgn lagu ini,,,, stiap kali gw denger lagu ini, especially biasanya menjelang2 valentine's day, pastinya radio banyak yg muter ni lagu, kuping gw pasti terasa geli .... hehhehe... aneh khan...
mengingatkan gw ke salah 1 temen di sma, namanya kalo ga salah Rudyanto, pokoknya anaknya tuh kecil n a bit at the dark skin color gitu -- yg ini mungkin masih ada lumayan ada sdikit connectionnya ,,, karna wktu acara Valentine kelas 3 sma, ada 1 permainan yg mana gw n bbrp temen lain ikutan game ini... all of us are blindfolded and has to find each partner by touching the partners' ear ...... karna hal ini, makanya smp skrg stiap denger lagu ini, secara ga sadar pasti telinga gw berasa heli ... aneh, aneh, padahal it's a very long time ago ...

5. Ada 1 lagu yg gw ga inget judul n penyanyinya... yg selalu mengingatkan gw pada salah 1 supir kantor ddn, mujyana ... ntah apa pula hubungan supir itu dgn lagu ini, ga tau juga ...

Masih banyak lagu laen... bersambung later on ....

The NTU Student ... how would his parent feel....

First time I watched this news on tv,
I didn't really pay attention,
I thought it was just a regular suicide n crime scene,

Tp ternyata kasus ini belum tuntas2 juga,
mgg lalu liat di homepagenya fb,
ada temen yang join group about this David student,
besoknya ada lagi another friend join another group related to David,
bbrp hari kemudian ada lagi other related David's group...
Yang akhirnya membuat gw juga jadi penasaran,
and start reading thoroughly...

hhmmm... what a case....
it startled me ...

i don't want to comment of the truth of his dead and his 'assumably act' to his professor,
but i started to think...

how would his parent feel...
After all this time, already proud to have his son
doing and performed well in the Educational world...
Participating several times on the Mathematics World Olympiade,
Best Student for maybe all his life....

and Suddenly,,,, Baammmm...
News that their son is dead of suicidal act,
and More to the Baammmmm....
before that, his univ prof had been killed becoz of his act....

Feel very sorry for his parents and family,
I couldn't imagine how would it feel , not even a glimpse...
I am very crushed and symphatize for his parents...
Gak Gampang loh membesarkan Anak sampai segitu besar,
just think....
bagaimana proses anak masih kecil hingga sekarang
university student yang berprestasi...


Well... hopefully his parents and family
would be given more strength and faith to deal with all of these...
and may David rest in peace ...
(though i actually doubt it whether of not he would rest in peace upthere)
I do believe in every situation there is something meaningful following it...

HEADACHE

Bright and Lovely Saturday,
tp kepala berasa pusing banget,
which is unlikely of me...

ini pasti akibat dari akumulasi kurang tidur selama bbrp hari...
pulang malem terus, banyak pikiran, banyak tugas yg dah semakin dekat,
project yang semakin deket waktunya, semakin buat deg-degan...
banyak makan mie instant (padahal biasa gw sama sekali bukan mie instant lover)
apa boleh buat mie instant, makanan yang paling cepet & very accessible,
office boy tinggal ke warung depan, ga sampe 5 menit dah jadi...

Hari ini di office, make one simple letter aja need hours
and still not in the best wording...
i'll work on it again next monday...

Monday, start the Refreshing Session...
more people to be supervised,
more crowded & obviously more concentrated to be put on,
becoz i have to do my work and do all the others at the same time ...

wooooowwww......
i wanna go back in to my foody world
full of excitements & full of colors & full of challenges

START OF NEW WORDS

Decided to make new title and new template

which I got from the internet for my blog -

inspired by my writer friend,

just to keep me excited of the blogging activities

Although Still Not certain about the existency of this,

but at least this is the first few steps
