Rosriyanti & Saiful Fahmi

It's been a month, but I guess it's never to late to wish 'May it last forever'. Amin.

How Will You Measure Your Life?

Just would love to share an insightful text to read. I received it in my email this morning. We always forget what mattered most to us. And always things that we think mattered most ended up the things we pay attention less.
Kids misbehave every day. It’s really not until 20 years down the road that you can put your hands on your hips and say, “I raised a good son or a good daughter.”

You can neglect your relationship with your spouse, and on a day-to-day basis, it doesn’t seem as if things are deteriorating.

People who are driven to excel have this unconscious propensity to underinvest in their families and overinvest in their careers—even though intimate and loving relationships with their families are the most powerful and enduring source of happiness.

If you study the root causes of business disasters, over and over you’ll find this predisposition toward endeavors that offer immediate gratification. If you look at personal lives through that lens, you’ll see the same stunning and sobering pattern: people allocating fewer and fewer resources to the things they would have once said mattered most

There are lot more to discuss from the text. Have a good read!

Sennheiser HD555

Yeay! There is souvenir comes from Brussels.

I've been longing for this headphone for a long time. Since the first time I'm looking for one. But at that time, I know I can't afford one.

I still can't afford it now, considering the price mark here in Malaysia. But look at price offer at amazon.de. That is totally acceptable, lotssss cheaper!

It is really worth every hassle.

Thank you very much love!

Self and Family

A conversation happen nearby my cubicle at work.
Mrs A: Eh, ade banyak promotion sekarang ni. Jom la gi jalan-jalan.
Mrs B: Haaa, ape lagi. Arrange la.
Mrs A: Jom pegi kita-kita je la. Tak payah bawa anak-anak.
Mrs B: Aku gi jalan-jalan setakat ni tak pernah tinggal.
Mrs A: Sometimes we need time for ourself jugak.

It struck me. Like, really?

Children and spouse are not the best thing you ever got already? Which part of it that you don't have time for yourself? I'm suppose every single time spent with love one is time for self, no?

Why is that never enough? Maybe it won't enough until we lost it.

Yeah, can't blame them. People nowadays live for themself. It's all about self, hardly about family. How is that to justify the value of family?

But I guess, that's just me a conservative man. Who just have his family to hang on.

Subway

Subway seems to be my official meal lately, either lunch or dinner.


I kind of love the meals. It taste so good!

Healthy too. Just another way for me to eat vegetables :P

I guess better that way rather than ended up at McDonalds.

p.s. Arghhhh! I'm always have a hard time to decide what to have.

Belon Rahsia

Balloon


Saat aku kesunyian. Aku mencari rahsia tersembunyi di celah-celah belon itu.

Kamu mungkin fikir aku gila. Tetapi aku tahu, di celah-celah belon itu adanya rahsia yang berharga.

Kamu mungkin ketawa mengilai. Tetapi aku yakin, di celah-celah belon itu tak ada siapa dapat menilai.

Kamu mungkin kata aku bermimpi. Tetapi aku alami, di celah-celah belon itu menyentuh rasa diri.

Kamu mungkin tidak akan mengerti. Selama-lamanya.

Learning Concept

How many times have you go through a new concept to know that you still can’t get to understand it?

I always had this kind of difficulty. It’s hard for me to understand something.

For example, how to manage Drupal CMS. It’s been ages I’m trying to understand it’s underlying concept. But to no avail, I failed miserably.

At some point when you aren’t really trying anymore, when you just want to take a simple look at the concept, you can see some light of hope. Out of sudden, you just started to know how to put things together. Everything comes to your mind and you seems to know how thing works. It’s just another piece of puzzle for you.

And at the point of time you will say, “Ah this is just easy!”

It happen again today. Another puzzle solved.

What a great feeling.

Series of Unfortunate Event

I don't know why, but things doesn't seems to be in my favor.

My backup database is corrupted after transferring to another hosting.

Hope my previous hosting still have a good backup file.

As of now, I already know how to utilize Drupal. Yet I still think I'll stick with Wordpress for this blog. It's much more easier that way for day to day rambling.

p.s. Off to sleep with mind still thinking about the backup file :(
