minor lagi oh minor lagi

Wednesday, November 30th, 2005

Gw bisa stress nih lama2…

Gara2 minor project….

Gw ngerasa kayaknya gw kurang nyumbang banyak nih buat pengerjaan kelompok minor project ini…

Jadi ngga enak sama yg lain deh…

Duh minggu depan udah penentuan layak seminar ato nggak…

Musti demo program lagi…

Dan gw ini bener2 agak lemot…

Gimana ntar sidang yah….

Duh gw kok jadi banyak concern gini sih….

Oh minor…

Wednesday, November 30th, 2005

I’m so grateful that I’m a Catholic ^_^
When I really really need something, There’s Novena 3 Salam Maria.
Actually in my whole life I only pray this Novena once (twice, plus now)
But I know this prayer is so powerful.
I have high hopes.

Huahh gw kayaknya ga bisa catch up deh dengan temen2 sekelompok gw. The problem is, I think thye’re all smarter than me!
All of you yang baca blog ini, please banget doain gw supaya lulus minor projects ya! Thanks banget!

Oh ya hr ini di perpus gw nemu 1 quote yg bagus:

Orang bijak adalah dia yang hari ini mengerjakan apa yg orang bodoh mengerjakannya tiga hari kemudian.
(Abdullah Ibnu Mubarak)

One more quote:
Carilah pekerjaan yg kau cintai maka seumur hidupmu tak akan pernah merasa bekerja.
(Confusius)

Yg pertama cocok bgt bwt gw yg super lazy ini yah. Nunda2 apa yg perlu gw lakukan, bkn tindakan bijak.
I’m trying to be more wise.

Goth Rosary???!!!

Thursday, November 24th, 2005

Wah gw baru dapet info baru nih. Ada yg namanya Gothic Rosary (bahkan ada websitenya). Rosario ini ga kayak rosario Katolik (jelas banget!). Bentuknya tuh mirip banget sama rosario Katolik, pake salib juga tapi tuisan INRInya dimiringin gitu. trus baigan2nya tengkorak gitu. Ih parah yah. Rupanya evil selalu mengambil ‘kebalikan’ dari apapun yg ada di agama qta ini. Misalnya aja kayak di film Emily Rose kan pastornya bilang klo evil ngambil jam 3 pagi sebagai kebalikan dari jam 3 sore (saat Yesus wafat di kayu salib).

Goth Rosary ini katanya bisa pake macem2 scent (wangi2an). Jadi kayak dupa gitu loh. Salah satu wangi2annya namanya: Graveyard!

Yang bener aja…. Intinya si pembuat Goth Rosary ini bilang dia mau bikin quasi-style Catholic (gw blm sempet nyari di google tentang ini)

Nih link gambar2nya:

ganti lagi euy!

Monday, November 21st, 2005

Hehe gara2 lagi keranjingan sama Latihan tari, jadi gw ganti deh nama blognya dari The Chronicles of Angela ke Dancing For Jesus.

makanan!!!

Monday, November 21st, 2005

 

(klo gbrnya ga nongol maap yah)

Stlh gw pikir2, kayaknya daripada ribet, mendingan gw naro isi blog mewhoeat.blogspot.com ke blog fs ini aja ah. Lagian lebih gampang naro gambarnya. Semua blog makanan (dalam kategori: me who eat a lot) gw tulis dlm bhs indo aja.

First, pas kita lagi ke apartemennya Kuku (my uncle…) lumayan jgua kebagian yang namanya Klapertaart. Dapt 2x lagi. Nyam2 enak deh walaupun udah rada beku. Isinya kelapa, kismis, vla, trus apa lagi yah… Pokoknya enak deh.

Trus, nyokap beli Ovaltine 3 in 1. Malaysia punya. Enak sih tapi menurut gw terlalu kemanisan. Jadi aneh deh kalo terlalu manis. Masih lebih enak Milo 3 in 1 punya Malaysia deh.

Trus, sepupu gw yg dari S’pore ngasih coklat Namanya Mochacino Lolly Choc. Nih gw kasih keterangannya:
Layered mousse filling with ground coffee in smooth milk chocolate. Milk chocolate (61 %) filled with a layer of coffee truffle (14%) containing real ground coffee (1%) and a coffee truffle centre (23 %).

Ooh, ini enak banget!

Foto di bawah ini menunjukkan bungkusnya depan belakang, isinya, sama stiknya:

Trus ini ada makanan yg namanya Wedang Kacang. Manis banget tapi anget loh. Walaupun demikian, gw akan tetep bilang, ronde jahe lebih enak! Oh yah makanan ini kalo udah dingin jadi ngga enak. Abis manis sih.

nari

(not in the mood buat nulis semuanya in English neh)

Gosh, I fell asleep after I got back from dance lesson (latian tari punya Dekut woi bkn dansa!). Padahal tomorow I ada exam! Myaw. Kecapean sih. Gw kan blm print out slidenya… Open book ujiannya…

Anyway, latian tarinya so much fun!
First we practice using
S’bab Tuhan Maha Besar song. Pas awal2 gw susah ngikutinnya. Tapi ampe rumah latian lagi eh lumayan bisa.

And then dikasih tau alat2nya. Tambourine, Banner, sama satu alat lagi yang namanya gw lupa, stimer ato slimer gitu. Ada 1 lagi namanya Flag tapi tadi ga dibawa. Oh ya yg ngelatih tuh dari PDKKM Hosana dancers.

First, I tried tambourine. Quite easy tapi gw sempat salah cara megangnya (abis ribet sih). Lumayan juga jari tengahnya jadi rada lecet dikit. But worthed lah. We learn basicnya. Ada macem2.

Then I tried Banner. Sumpe berat abis! Udah gitu megangnya kan harus di antara telunjuk ma jari tengah. Katanya siap2 aja lecet. Myaw gw sih muter2innya bisa tapi tu barang berat banget!

And this one yg namanya gw lupa tadi (gw jadi nyebutnya pita soalnya alatnya kayak pita yg di senam olimpiade, cuman ini pitanya lebih gede aja). So much fun and I think I’ll get used to it in no time!

As we practice, I remember how when I was a child, pas di SD di jakarta gw ikut nari. Sempat tampil loh di aula gereja. Gw masih nyimpen fotonya. Trus waktu di Lembang gw sering main2 pita kayak gitu, tapi pitanya lebh tipis n lebih panjang n agak beda aja.

Nih fotonya. Ga jelas soalnya gw ga punya scanner sih.


Anyway, ini topik lain:

Next year BPKPKK KAJ (nah loh pjg bener) atawa sie kepemudaannya KAJ mo bikin acara. Novena Renovation (klo ga salah namanya gini. Gw lupa renovationnya tuh singkatan dari apa)

Acaranya tuh KRK di tiap dekenat. Utara kebagian bulan Maret. Ntar penutupnya KRK besar2an nih. Oke juga acaranya.

Ada theme songnya tapi gw cuma inget dikit (smoga bener):

So let this generation
Arise and stand hand in hand
To proclaim that Jesus Christ is Lord

It’s all about OUR GENERATION! So wake up, young people…
We are the future. Let’s do our best for our mighty Lord!

The spring is finally come! (ini tema acaranya)

Trus 5 Januari 2005, PD ortu Yako mo ngadain ‘Untaian Tali Kasih’:

Tempatnya di La Piazza. Bakal disiarin (ngga siaran langsung) ma Indosiar. Ini buat anak2 panti asuhan gitu deh. Mari kita berikan kasih Natal yang terhangat buat mereka ^_^
Btw ni acara ada artisnya tp blm pasti siapa.

there’s time for everything

Saturday, November 19th, 2005

Oh yeah,  I wrote blog entries 4 times in a row on 19
November. And post all of it 4 times in a row in a
same day too.

Okay then, it’s 3pm and I haven’t eat breakfast or lunch (actually I
woke up at 12.30pm). And I’m feeling nauseated. Wanna know why?
Because I had this ‘anemia’ and every time I eat late, I get dizzy and
weak and nauseated. Oh what an illness. Oh I’m so weak physically.
Today’s food (gw makanannya rantangan nih): shrimps,some strange
veggies (eggplants, I guess –terong), soup
(potatoes, carrots, peas, cabbages and lil bit of meats).
Oh I think I’ll go grab some food before continuing….


Hey I still have to wait before I eat. Why? I must peel off those
shrimps skin. Oh I’m so hungry. And outside there’s a voice ‘Pempek
Palembang!’ which make me hungrier!!!



Finally, I can eat now ^_^’
thank God I’m not allergic to shrimps.

Found this Bible verse:

Ecclesiates 3

3:1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

3:2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

3:3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

3:4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

3:5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

3:6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

3:7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

3:8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

3:9 What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?

3:10 I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.

3:11 He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.

(hey why’s there so much words ending with -eth ?)

So there’s time to study, time to play, time to eat, time to write a blog, time to complain, time to be grateful.

I must memorize these verses. Very useful in my life.

Cindy, English, and Aussie

Saturday, November 19th, 2005

As I already told u, I got ‘intermediate’ for my EF online English test (www.ef.com)
So today’s topic is English and I.

I learn English quite quickly. Got great grades when I was in elementary. Maybe because my Dad so good at English (he went to British Council at London). But when I entered junior high, things were different! I often got 5 out of 10 for English exams. Why? Because most of it was grammar exams and I didn’t do well on that. And the English teacher, Miss Ria… She’s a great great GREAT English teacher and I learnt a lot from her.
Maybe that’s why  I managed to get good scores when I went to high school. She forced us to memorize irregular verbs (but now I realised… that was very useful!)

So how did I learn English other than that? I have 4 cousins from Singapore. Of course they speak English. I learn ‘Conversation’ a lot from talking with them. Also I learn my grammar from ‘Reading’ Anastasia’s blog (of course she wrote it in English!) and Ana’s blog (she wrote it in English mixed with Indonesian).  I learn ‘Listening’  from watching cable TV (AXN, Animax, Star World, E! Entertainment, etc) which don’t have any Indonesian subtitles. Oh also I have 2 English novel: The Magician’s Guild (Trilogy by Trudi Canavan, Australian) and Artemis Fowl Files (Eoin Colfer, Irish)

Hey, but things went differently (again) when I went to Sydney and Canberra for my holiday (after I graduated form high school). Gee, I almost don’t understand what they were saying. Actually I will understand better if only they spoke a lil bit slowly and not with that strange accent (sumpah logatnya aneh banget). For example, they greet us with ‘Good day!’ but since they spoke it so quickly, I thought they were saying ‘Gede…" X-D huahahaha…. So funny lah.
(I often use ‘lah’ –> this is from Singaporean English. Don’t know since when I used ‘lah). Oh I was 18 yrs old when I went there. Someone thought I was 13 yrs old! OMG! (Btw this girl was only 17 yrs old. 1 yrs younger than me and she thought that I was 4 yrs younger than her). And I think she won’t believe me until I shown my ID card. So embarrassing. And I fell down from a ski board. Got bruises in my FACE. So extremely embarrassing. Mount Blue Cow (Canberra) and that Perisher resort was just a huge bad experience from me.

But I loved that ‘Wonderland’ theme park. Just right next to the Zoo. Cute kangaroos and koalas… Oh I want to go there again! Koalas not smelly. They smell like guavas. Maybe because their food is eucalyptus (btw this thing is good when u had flu). If u play Roller Coaster Tycoon 2, there’s a roller coaster that looks like the roller coaster at Wonderland theme park (at Wonderland it called ‘Demon’). And I love Space Probe, it just like Roto Drop a Roller Coaster Tycoon. I really grateful I can go there. But I still pray someday I can go to London, Japan, and a pilgrim to Holy land….

Hey, I think I started to love writing blog entries in English. Must keep this up!

people….

Saturday, November 19th, 2005

Taken from Anna’s Blog:
(my junior high schoolmate)

I was wondering why some people just surrender easily to what other people tell them to do… I mean, it’s like sometimes they just don’t have faith or independence to think for their own sake. For their own problems. Their own future. Why do people depend on other people so heavily even for small things? Why do people prefer other people to decide for them? Why do people don’t learn to decide for themselves? Why do people care so much about what others think about them? Why do people conform with other’s expectation even though they don’t like it? Why do people even bother to ask others about things they know won’t get the expected answers–and even follow it? Why do people let other people control their lives? Yes, that’s it! Why do people let other people control their lives, even when they don’t like it?

Hmm, bener juga yah. I always depend on my friends and almost everyone in my life. I never made a great decision. I think I already wrote this before: I’m a very bad decision - maker. But I don’t think people could live by themselves. They still need other people. They live not for their own sake but for everyone else in their life too. Of course they think what other people think about ‘em. That’s why people need others’ opinion but it doesn’t mean that others control their lives. People just really NEED TO KNOW what’s right for them, even it’s from other people thought.

PEOPLE, WAKE UP!!! YOU REALLY NEED TO RELY ALL THINGS TO GOD! But can you hear God’s voice? I think not literally. God speak to you from others, so find a good friend. Friends that live for God and in God.  That’s how you handle things even you really need to get off from some culture you don’t like.

evil in my mid

Saturday, November 19th, 2005

Okay, another English language blog entry.
Oh, I hope I used the right grammar and tenses. I’m not so good at
both.
(But I get ‘Intermediate’ level when I tried EF online English test)

Whoa…
There has been a lot of evil going on in my mind since this mid
semester exam begun…..

U see… I tried to study. But this evil voice in my mind won’t let
me. So I play around instead of study…
For me, life is about having fun. I don’t take things too seriously.
I love to play around and having fun (in a positive way).
The only thing I took really really serious is God and all related to
HIM.

I’m a lazy person. I do things slowly and learn almost slowly…
So every time exams come, it just a nightmare for me!
At night I couldn’t sleep well just because I’m worried I will fail in
tomorrow exams or I forgot what I have studied. Plus, now I don’t have any closestf friends to support me (they all in different class)
But I still try to ‘defeat all twin demons of procrastinator’ (-taken
from The Sims 2 University) and managed to study a lil’ bit.

Okay I need to change the topic before I’m really depressed with this
whole situation.
Now then…
My friend, Ella, just email me from Japan.
I thought she’ll do well there but yet..
She met with troubles and ask me for advice.
I’m not really a good advisor.
I RARELY give advice to any of my friends’ problem.
But I managed to give Ella a nice advice with Bible verses.
I think God really want to help her through me…
Thank God I can really give her a nice advice. I hope it can help her.

Anyway, enough of problems for now. I don’t like to overload my brain
with problems. But if she ask for another advice, I will gladly help
her without think twice. I think I’m so good at giving advice WRITTEN,
not SPOKEN, literally.

Now, I still got 4 exams left:
E-Business Concept
Leadership
Web-Based Programming cont’d
Character Building III: Relation with God

Hope I can do my best.
Wish me luck!! (^_^)d
