A week become an employee and I face my first personal problem... my 1-week-old shoes is ripped! Yes, it's a week old and it no longer wearable. DAMN!
With my income issue, I have an intention to reduce my monthly expense. Cause I know that I have to mange my personal finance by myself now with consideration of my future plan, like take S2 degree, buy new phone (Blackberry :D), buy new car, pay my parent go hajj, buy an apartment etc...etc... That's why when I searched for new home (a.k.a kos-an) the number 1 prior criteria is the one that is walking-distance away from office. And I got it, just 10 minutes walk from Wisma Mulia, nice home, nice neighborhood. Everything seems perfect at that time, the problem comes a week later, and not about the kos-an but when I walk 10 minutes on a not-so-smooth way to the office.
My new shoes is like my usual shoes : black and simply, with new addition: 1 cm wedges. I'm in a rush to move to Jakarta when I bought the shoes, that's why I didn't try the shoes properly and it's a disaster. I never got any major problem with heels, actually I like heels, as long as it has a reasonable size, but wedges??? I think we can't be friend at all. I can't walk properly with wedges, eventhough I walk in the smooth surface. The fact that I didn't try it properly give me a huge regret, because it's not a thirty-thousand-kota-kembang shoes, it's a twice-weekly-income shoes and for me it's not cheap at all. The effect... my foot hurt and now... my shoes hurt.
The initial intention with has a near home to office is to reduce transportation cost... but with wrong judment in choosing shoes the cost won't reduce, because I have to buy new one and it's equal with (maybe more than) the transportation cost that I have to spend in a month if I take bus everyday to office. So, the learn-in-the-hard-way results... don't buy shoes just because it's black and simply, don't buy shoes if you in a rush and don't buy shoes if it has wedges!

The jobless time is over....
I'm being lazy to update this blog lately. After my break-up with speedy, my internet usage is declining rapidly. So the point is not HOW LARGE my internet quota... the real issue is my internet-usage attitude.
Now, I got another source to connect to the web... my office network :D. I know that bandwidth's price is high, and some company limit their internet usage. So I feel really grateful that I got the service easily through WiFi with my personal laptop or the office's LAN, but with some limitation.
Yup, I'm not jobless anymore :) After so many jobseek trip, so many test and interview... finally...
Alhamdulillah... I'm an employee in probation at PT Telkomsel. Just have passed my first week, very interesting first week, hopefully that the weeks after will always better :) Wish me luck...

It's me... 18 years ago :D
The last time I come to my aunt's house at Jatinangor, I saw her newborn son's first picture. I said to my mother, 'mom, unfortunately, there's no photo of me before kindergarten'. Then my aunt said that she has my old photo, the one when I was just 2 or 3 years-old. She take the album and give it to me.
The first time I look at the photos, I laugh so hard. I can't believe it's me!!! The picture to the left is me (wow... I wear a dress... white-long-dress... can't believe it!), and another is me with my older sister Intan, my mom always dress us like twin when we were little, we were cute, weren't we?! :D
Hahaha... there's a time in history that I can call myself cute... something that will be just a joke if I say it today ;p
