Wish list

post #190

Lately I've been lingering with these gadgets...

1. Dell XPS 1330 ( around $1600)
Light weight yet powerful, beautifully designed laptop from Dell



2. Ipod Classic 80GB( $265)

Although it's not as alluring as the one which was used as clothes by Marissa Miller, this slim beauty still has its inevitable appeal to those music freaks...such as me...


3. Nokia 6120 Classic and Nokia E51 ( maybe around $350)

I've been waiting for my 3rd (and last) cell phone I'll ever buy...The moment has arrived to say goodbye to my beloved N6600 that has been very loyal to me for the past three years.



















4. Webcam ( $50)

It would be nice to have nice face to face chat with this baby ;p




















5. Italian Jersey and Futsal Shoes ( $36 and $32)

A wonderful memory when Italy won its 4th World title last year. One of the most unforgettable win of course when they faced Germany in the semi final, just a minute away from penalty shoot out, which Italy has not so good reputation at, Pirlo brilliantly slipped the ball to Grosso who scored with a curving shot. And in the midst of their ferocious attempt to get level, Del Piero really silenced Germany fans with his beautiful goal that left Lehman rooted to the spot. Italy 2, Germany 0. Italy went to final and ended up beating France through dramatic penalty shoot out which all Italy players succeeded in finding the net while Trezeguet, France hero in Euro 2000 saw his shoot bounced back from the horizontal bar but unlike Zidane's earlier shoot, it bounced out. ITALIA, Il Campione del Mondo!!!!!! I can still feel the euphoria that time...The adrenaline explosion that rushed through my veins....The smell of victory...so delicioussss






































These items sum up to $2333... :|

Do I need all of them? No. What I need the most is probably the shoes. Darn, this is the problem with human. We always want more...wanting....wanting...wanting....

I wishh....upon a star...lolzzz

Quotes

Post #189

Dunno why I have this urge to write some quotes I have remembered since I found them quite intriguing...

- You can if you think you can
- People do not plan to fail, they just fail to plan
- Women give sex to get love while men give love to get sex
- Women forgive but never forget; Men forget but never forgive
- Between endless hope and hopeless end
- When the going gets tough, the tough gets going
- Don't marry the one you can live with, marry the one you can't live without
- If you cannot be with the one you love, love the one you can be with
- You cannot make someone to love you, all you can do is be someone that can be loved
- An optimist would say, nothing is impossible. A confident would say, impossible is nothing! (Damn this quote is good)

Well...that's about it at the moment
Ermm...reminded me of an email a colleague sent to all personnel in our Jakarta office. After 2 years and 4 months (I still remember it clearly), he will be moving to Accenture office in Melbourne this October. Dang!!! I read the email carefully.... I was drooling..... My mind flew back to January 2002 while I was watching F4 Fantasy Forever concert. I can...can't I?

The 'L' Word

post #188

A little addition to the F words I managed to list on my previous post: File, Figure, Food, Faith, Fly, False, Frozen, Face, Fortune, Faint, Flip, Ferocious, Frown, Facade, Fruit, Fresh, Flank and Futsal!
Last saturday I played futsal again with some friends of mine. Dunno what got into me...maybe it's the emotions I need to express...I scored 6 goals that nite with still injured ankle. It's like arrrggghhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!! But it felt good. After playing, we went to get some food. The 13 of us ended up eating fried rice in front of Gadink Mall. It was around 11 sth PM so there're only few people.... That nite, I slept like a baby.

This week highlights are probably the revelation I had about a girl that has been my cyber friend for more than a year. All this time she never willing to reveal her self (by reveal I mean to let me know what she looks like). I understand she has trust issue and with the history I have with her I thought that she'll only be a faceless friend whom I can have nice chats and exchange thoughts. I didn't know what move her to let me know what she looks like. She even gave me a link to her blog. It took me by surprise....
First I never, even in my wildest dream thought that she would give her blog link. I have asked about it a dozen times (maybe more) and she always refused. I respect her decision and content myself with these chats. My curious (and sometimes annoying) mind asked one question I could think of. What made her change her mind? unfortunately I'm not a mind reader and I quit playing mind games...so I just accept it without 'thorough investigation'....
Second, her pic was really really different with the images I have about her. Images that have been dancing around in my mind. They're all shattered in a moment when I saw her pic. She looked ingenuous, 180 degrees different with what I have expected...a cold, smart, sadistic with a little twist of bithcy-ness...The saying 'look can be deceiving' has proved it's validity once again. Never judge a book from its cover. Problem is.. I've seen the book content all the time while the cover itself still kept in the dark...;p
Third; I read her blog and I can learn more about her. I think from a blog we can read a person's character, how he/she thinks, how he/she perceives this world, this life. We're quite similar. We're both a pdf. I just quite surprised to read some of her posts. Never considered her character like that. She's really something.

Reminds me of Roxette's song that I posted some times ago...
'..and she has kept me wondering for so long...how did thing could go wrong...it seems to me that we are both the same...playing the same game....but as darkness falls this true love falls apart into a riddle of her heart...She's so vulnerable...'

About the 'L' word. Got a few that I could think of, first of all I wanna use Lesson. What lesson have I learned from all this? Persistence? Patience? Hey...it took more than a year for her to finally open up. There's saying from the legendary Godfather movie...True power cannot be given...it MUST be taken.... Well, I've come up with my own saying...trust cannot be given...it MUST be earned. But again like I've writtend in my previous post back then...at the end of the day, it still depends on the person itself whether that person choose to trust or not. There's nothing we can do except prove our trustworthiness.

Life, Live, Learn, Lesson, Lie, Love, Lust, Last, Lost, List, Least, Linger, Limb, Like, Lips, Lose, Loose, Loop, Leap, Lump, Lure, Lurk, Lung, Long, Lot, Let, Lit, Law, Less, Look, Lap, Listen, Length, Leech, Laugh, Lamb, Lamp, Lizard, Light, Lingerie ...

Life...Never ending, lifetime learning lessons...

Anw...wanna say happy birthday to three beautiful girls whose birthdays fell on this week. Happy Birthday to Lorena, Shelley and Clara.. wish you all the best in life...

Last nite I attended a prayer gathering again...after soooooo long caught up with so many things. Sang this song that I almost forget....This morning I also attended a mass in my parish church, after almost two months went to St. James church in Kelapa Gadink. There's a sentimental nuance I felt when I stepped into the church. Maybe I was just being sentimental since I've known and been in this church since I was in kindergarten...or maybe I was just missing the athmosphere that I didn't feel at St. James...

Now I must use my last week on Woodside project to finish all the TDs and prepare for BP project...It's gonna be working like crazy again after this brief moment of blowing off some steam out of my engine... This is for You, my Lord...

The 'F' Word

Post # 187

First, Follow, Fear, Future, Finish, Father, Figure, Final, Four, Fantasy, Fantastic, Fury, Feisty, Friends, Forever, Four, Fling, Flirt, Flow, Flower, Flaw, Flick, Fire, Fish, Fist, Foe, Feign, Fraud, Felon, Fool, Fold, Fu*k, Fuse, Fuel, Fang, Fart, Fast, Finite, Fiend, Fond, Fox, Fever, Flail, Flavor, Fan, Fat, Fuzzy, Flake, Fake, For, Frog, Fun, Fin, Fund, Font, Front, Foot, Fail, Fly, Fix, Fierce, Fur, Find, Fend, Fairy, Fine....

Hmmm....what else?

There are sooooooooooooo many things have happened in my dormant period of blogging. I don't even know where or how to begin. First, it's very fantastic that I got promoted per September 1, 2007. It took me by surprise because I never really thought that I'd be promoted that fast. All my hard work was paid off. After I got the notification, I realized once again that result goes along with effort. More effort means more result. Welldone, another resolution achieved.

These last few weeks seems like a very beautiful dream to me. It almost swept me off my feet. The times we had, the things we did together, the laughs we shared, simple moments we spent together. They're all too good to be true, but like any other dreams it finally ended, no matter how hard I want it to stay like that. There are things that make it hard to become real, to last. Though it's brief, I really do cherish it. Yet it ended...maybe it's for the best for both of us. We're hurt but we're moving on. Reminds me of Serendipity tagline, "Can once in a lifetime happens twice?" I dunno, but I do know one thing for sure. I really wish you all the best in your life, Princessa...I won't forget you...

Princessa - I Won't Forget You

The fading light of day lingers on your sleeping face
My lover's lullaby lately lost its tender grace
Somewhere in your dreams tonight
Let my lips come close to you and hold me tight
After all I hardly bear
To turn my back to loving arms and leave you there

Chorus:
Baby, I won't forget you
And I won't regret you
I won't forgive you
Anymore, no more

We said our first hello beneath a blue umbrella sky
A simple moment shared by strangers who were passing by
People say when you're in love
It seems as if tomorrow almost never comes, no never comes
After all your loving touch
Through my eyes of love to me it means so much
And that's why

Chorus:
I wont forget you
And I won't regret you
I won't forgive you
Anymore, no more
I won't forget you
And I never let you
Anymore, no more

Chorus

I won't regret you...your eyes, your smile, your voice, your laugh, your touch, your scent, your kisses...So soft they ache my heart


I still remember vividly the song you gave me, the one song that reminds me of you and the inevitable reality of us.


Dygta - Tak Bisa Memiliki

Bila...
Waktuku tersisa
Untuk s'lalu di sisi
Menjaga hatimu

Aku...
'Kan s'lalu mencoba
Berikan yang terbaik
Untuk kau miliki

Tapi maafkan aku
Waktuku hanya sesaat

reff:
Aku tak bisa memiliki
Menjaga cintamu
Walau sesungguhnya hatiku mencintaimu, memilikimu
Aku tak ingin kau terluka
Mencintai aku
Hapuslah air matamu dan lupakan aku

Sendiri
Di batas asaku
Hanya ingin kau bahagia
Jalani hidupmu

Aku
'Kan s'lalu mencoba
Berikan yang terbaik
Untuk kau miliki

Tapi maafkan aku
Waktuku hanya sesaat

reff

Tapi maafkan aku
Waktuku hanya sesaat

reff (2x)
...


Sheila on 7 - Dan

Dan...

Bila esok datang kembali
Seperti sedia kala dimana kau bisa bercanda
Dan...
Perlahan kaupun, lupakan aku
Mimpi burukmu
Dimana t'lah kutancapkan duri tajam
Kaupun menangis, menangis sedih
Maafkan aku...

#
Dan...
Bukan maksudku, bukan inginku
Melukaimu sadarkah kau di sini 'kupun terluka
Melupakanmu, menepikanmu
Maafkan aku

Reff
Lupakanlah saja diriku
Bila itu bisa membuatmu kembali bersinar
Dan berpijar seperti dulu kala
caci maki saja diriku
Bila itu bisa membuatmu kembali bersinar
Dan berpijar seperti dulu kala


#, Reff


Well, I guess it's time I use the last F word I can think of....today.....
Farewell Princessa, thank you for everything you've given me
