would you be a smart person?

Intelligence is something you know by heart and action, not only by words you say.
Mean what you say, say what you mean, then people will react positively to you....

Positive thinking will lead to positive action
Positive action will lead to positive reaction
Positive reaction will create positive attitude
Positive attitude will create positive behavior
Positive behavoir will lead to positive thinking
Thus the circle begins...

I believe smart people don't just come by accident, they trained themselves to be smart.
How about you?

Trip to Zero KM - Sabang, P.Weh, Aceh

It was an impulsive decision to take this trip to Sabang, last weekend (plus 1 Monday) 28 - 31 January 2011

Udah ada ada keinginan utk pergi ke Sabang, P.Weh, menjajal trip di Nol Kilometer ujung barat Indonesia. Tapi selalu tertunda dengan pikiran "nanti deh, tunggu punya license diving"

Ternyata ujian Open Water gue ga kunjung tiba, dan masuk bulan Februari pastinya bakal hectic ama kerjaan. So, walhasil and walnekad :D browsing lah semua tiket penerbangan menuju Banda Aceh. Awalnya mau di libur Imlek tp apadaya kantong tereak dengan harga tiket pesawatnya :(

Ajak mengajak akhirnya cuma berhasil ngajak satu orang buddy yg minat ke Aceh tapi dengan merubah tanggal keberangkatan lebih awal. Browsing lagi, and.... voila!! dapetlah tiket Sriwijaya Air PP Jak-BandaAceh, transit Medan seharga Rp. 1.250 pp. Not bad kan?

What next? Bongkar catatan milis. Eh Rio Indrawan baru aja dari sana. mantab nih, catper-nya bisa dipinjem .. hehe, thanks Rio... plus info no telp Ibu Saliza-Iboih Inn dari Om Adolf.

Nekad? yes, lumayan nekad, krn ga pake acara ketemuan dulu sama Ardi, buddy gue yg mo berangkat bareng.... email2an, telp2an, then ketemu di airport... brangkattzzzz!!!

Walhasil, petualangan seru di P. Weh kita dapatkan.

berhubung panjang, so, cerita lengkapnya nanti ya, disini silakan dinikmati foto2nya aja dulu......

Monggo.....

Macro: Little Mr.Grashopper on my finger

When we (Ardi, another guest at Iboih Inn called Widi,, and myself) were having dinner at Camoe Cafe, Iboih Inn, we were surprised by this tiny weeny little Mr. Grasshopper who stood still on my finger.

I was amused by him, fascinated by his beautiful yet calm figure, I took the opportunity to take pictures of him.
Widi was excited as well, he set my camera into macro setting, then voila!!!
Little Mr. Grasshopper was a star and my finger was the stage....

Such a beautiful animal ... :)

I am so blessed to capture you, Mr. Grasshopper

"Ngapain ke Madura?"

"Ngapain ke Madura? Ada apa disana?"
Selalu itu yang ditanyakan beberapa teman tiap kali saya bilang mau jalan ke Madura.
"Loh memangnya kenapa? ada yg salah dengan Madura?"

Rupanya image orang2 Madura yg kasar dan tidak berpendidikan (maaf) masih sangat melekat di sebagian besar benak teman2 saya.
Kenyataannya yg saya temui tidak demikian. Mereka sangat ramah, sopan dan kebaikannya murni tulus tidak dibuat-buat.

Karena kebaikan sebuah keluarga di Pamekasan saat menjelang nonton Karapan Sapi, Ruth yg cidera mata kakinya bisa diurut sampai bengkaknya memudar, dan kamipun dijamu dengan penganan-penganan khas Madura.
Pun setiap orang yg kami tanyakan sangat santun menjawab setiap pertanyaan kami.

Sayang, waktu Sabtu-Minggu tidak cukup untuk meng-explore seluruh sudut Madura. Tak sempat mengunjungi Tambak Garam Kalianget dan melihat ke-khasan Pohon Cemara Udang di salah satu pantai tersohor di Madura...

Meski begitu, pengalaman ini luarbiasa menakjubkan....

Feel the love in the air?

This is a poem, but I'm no poet.



My happiness is built on sand.
It is easily swept away by wave and drowned, but to build it again and again need no hardwork.

My love is made of marmelade jam, sweet-sour-bitter taste it is, not a fancy of every child.

My heart is solid rock, strong and powerful yet expensive.

But my life is merely mine, for The Lord has the whole me......
