12 Feb 2010 Stong Personality

Ummmm, I am in the middFirele of – what I can say as – Personality Development. At this age (30), I hope it’s not too late at all. So many people around me are always talking about strong personality. At a glance, I can figure what it is but not really sure about it. What is it actually Strong Personality?

After a long looking at myself, I found that none of part of my personality can support me to have a strong personality. I think it’s because I still don’t know anything about strong personality. In fact, I think strong personality is always about ugly and violent temper, anger, big ego. Hittler had strong personality, also Musollini, Stallin and some of war criminals.

I know…. it’s not always that bad. I think we can say that our beloved Indonesia really needs a strong leader with strong personality. He is so weak for current Indonesia. What if Soekarno (who I think had a strong personality too) replaces him, can it be better? I am not sure.

So, what is Strong Personality? It’s about how you can be confident and happy with your self. It doesn’t mean you have to dominate others, but you are exist. Your existence makes any differences around you. They can feel that you are there. So how to be like that? it requires: Confident, Happy, Smart, Eager, Smile and Jokes. That’s it, let’s do it. Good luck.

By the way, I am like you, in any circumstances, I want to be the man.. the leader, the one who can count on.

09 Feb 2010 My Engrish Stupid Conversation

Avatar MovieMe: “Have you watched avatar 3D?”
Friend: “No, how is it?”
Me: “Wuoow, you won’t belive it. The 3D effect is so amazing. It’s so real”
Friend: “What is the story about?”
Me: “It’s about a marine who join to the a marine team going to a weird jungle, walking, running, hunting and … it’s .. arrgghh .. shit”.
Friend: …

Yupe, we are not native English speaker, in the middle of Speaking English Learning Program (at least 4 hours a day), and I found that describing about Avatar movie in Engrish (English with Bahasa Acent) is so hard. It cracked me up.

09 Feb 2010 What will happen in 2012?

Just read about Indonesian’s Favorite and Famous Oracle: Mama Lauren (is it how we spell her name?). I remember how in TV she telling about 2012. For me that’s very interesting  thus I forget her prediction about 2012. All people is still wondering about 2010, including me. Well, I always wonder about times in future, not only 2012 but also tomorrow.

Some said doomsday will happen, some said a big planet will hit earth, and so on. I don’t really care about the speculation, all I care is what will I do if that happen? What is my preparation for the day? I am expecting 2012 is my best year. I don’t believe about the prophecy that bad bad thing will happen in earth in 2012. About Mayan Calendar falls on Dec 12, 2012? I think they just don’t have enough space to go after to 2012 there (just like the picture) :p

01 Jan 2010 New Year 2010

Wooow, it’s 01:00 a.m January 1, 2010. Happy New Year. I wish you all blessed and have better live this year.

A lot of things I learned from last year. One thing I remember so much is one of my last year resolution. It was “DOING MY HOMEWORKS”. It’s simple to say (or to write here), but in fact so hard to happen.

January last year, I realized time would pass so fast. Previous year (2008), I had a very “great” plan, but it didn’t happen although not totally failed. Suddenly, I was trapped on my last days in December 2008 without any good progress.

January 2009, I made another resolution, I would be more consistent with my “DOING MY HOME WORKS”. I planned to push my self to do my best doing my home works since early days in 2009. But again, I found myself just like before, realized it had been December and got not much. No significant progress. Goshh …

Now, I am still making same resolution instead of my other new resolutions. This time I believe I will make it happen. The failure for those 2 years cost me too much – my job performance, family live, financial, etc. I don’t want to make this new year as a new start for my old habbit.

God, please guide me, give me strength.
