Things happened.....

First of all, I would like to say "Happy Earth Ox year!". I know it has been too late to say it, but well, in the recent days, I was to lazy to update my blogs anyway :P.

Like the subject of this blogs, many things happened to me. A couple days before Chinese New Year, I was really glad because I was able to finish Indosat project. The Migration of Indosat' Internet Gateway in Hongkong was finally over and success ^_^. This is the first project that I took great responsibility as leader after leaving networking world and concentrating for OSS two years ago.

That day, I was really happy. Indosat guys can testity easily because when I was finally able to configure load balancing feature which they need so bad, I was smiling and smiling. This is like the blessing in the end of Rat year and I hope this is a sign of good beginning in Ox year. I will undergo this Ox year with very cautios since my Chinese horoscope - Goat - is the opposite sign of Ox.

It is being said that in this year, I will lose my temper easily and get failure in everything if I recklessly do without full preparation. That's why I didn't go against my boss decision of suspending my JNCIP-M request. He is wise enough to let me do many projects before taking the exam. This can raise my spirit and my confidence. Anyway, certification will mean nothing if you cannot do anything in the field which you are certified.

And exactly two days before Chinese, I met an old school friends. We have not met for so long, almost 20 years. But even I still remember her name correctly, it's like meeting a new friend to me. Well, I think it's normal anyway considering how long we have gone to separate ways. Live experience can make someone really difference from what you imagine.

I was happy meeting her again. Maybe this is a beginning of new story in my life? Who knows? Life is full of mystery. Sometimes we are longing for someone that never come and give her/his heart to us, instead we are ended with someone we never expect her/him be with in our life journey...

I'm back!

Just come back from a trip.
There are many things I learn from this trip ;).
There are many coincidences too, for example
- in the departure and arrival, I sat beside a pregnant woman.
- in the departure and arrival, I sat near the window.

I met new friends in this journey. They are japanese. It's really nice meeting new friends from another country. This is a little step forward for me. Maybe someday I'll have my own way to go abroad, leaving this country for a while, searching for "gold" :P..

The fact that salary in Indonesia is very low make me sometimes think why must I waste my time here anymore? There are many beautiful countries there promising me more. But I realize that leaving my country is not a easy as it seems.

Personally, I think Indonesia is a very beautiful country. It's just the government that's very lousy in developing this country. Sad but true.
