Today

So, that's what happen to bad client?

I've a terrible experience today. An unprofessional staff in the international relationship office called just to yell at me for I'm doing nothing wrong. I spent the next 15 minutes not listening to his blabbering by putting away the phone from my ear. ;p Alas, that still gave me bad mood, which means I'm not yet a proactive people.

And Gosh, who made him a director anyways, he shows no respect for his staff and no heart feelings for the rich boys out there, but who told them to hire an IBM student to be a part-time student? That student was copy pasting research data which was already on our website and handed them to us like it was his own finding and he's insisting that it's his effort that he came up with the data. Lame ass spoilt rich boy!

Is angry and yelling on the phone will make anything better? It's his fault that we're not doing any progress and we're not doing anything. Because he had not made any payment yet. And now he's talking about money. Duh! I'm not even paid to work on your stupid assignment. If you had the brain, probably you could at least learn to copy paste and make a simple HTML file instead of whining.

And last night as I walk home a girl told me that I didn't pass the selection to be the new student councellor. Who do you to judge how my relationship with God is? I am not LYING in my application form, nor that I LIED in my interview, for that I waited more than an hour just to get interviewed, because oh, the interviewer was meeting someone else, when she actually has an appointment with me.

On a better mood, I was enjoying the most beautiful entries by a family, too bad the father didn't have live journal. [sister, brother, and mum]

The me and friends gallery is updated. Here I include some pictures that I like. Taken by Jaya today when the power went down for one of the power generator exploded this afternoon.

A little update before I dissapear...

My father is seriously ill. My mum said he was nearly on deathbed on the first day of this month. That's the same day I went to Giant with Ellen, and although we only walk for a couple of hours, my right foot feels so weird at night. Dad said he thought why don't anyone remember him at this time? My mum said, "It was you who wouldn't want to tell them, remember?" Anyways, he recovered, as on the last Thursday public holiday, my mum called that he can eat now. Usually he would only able to take porridge. He smoke heavily since the riot gotten worse and worst and I wasn't there to told him not to smoke.

My mum didn't call again, I left the boarding house to the cyber cafe. He send me a message the name of his disease (better word, please?), epiclozit. And the medicine is quamix[something] forte. It's his lung, and the doctor said it was a rare case. T_T

On Friday, it was the last day of this semester, next week we have 3 days off to prepare us for final exams. And then the end of semester exam. That day, we had Research Methodology or Methods, that was going to be the last time I saw this guy I'm having a crush with regularly. More on him on the next entry (friends-only, sorry!). My gosh, he's so ***damned sexy, when what he only did was lifting his head onto the air. I don't know what's wrong with me. I discussed it with Leez, could it be PoMS that made me lust over him? XD

The afternoon, I was heading back to the campus, right in front of Depot Lombok, I heard a sound of motorcycle right behind me, usually I always turn my head and prepare to stay away from whoever who drive carelessly, but something made me not to turn my head, and the next minute, I was on my butt on the asphalted road. I was terribly confused. I'm hit by the motorcycle. People start running towards us. I turn my head left, the motorcycle was still on the road, but the guy who was driving it was in the sewage already. He was covered with black water. I felt pity for him, but I didn't say anything since I was too shocked. What came out from his mouth was, "Maaf ya, mbak!"

Beby told me later that, "Why didn't you yell at him?" I couldn't or I didn't think that way. I'm okay, my head is still there, my face is spotless, only 2 dots signs of bruises in my right palm, left foot hurt, left arm hurt, and two left fingers hurt, but that's all. Bu Ina, who sold Tempe Penyet, immediately told me to come to her house and wash my wound. After we were done, I head back home, still trembling like crazy and took a rest after calling Ellen cancelling our date.

On Saturday, the supposed-to-be-last class of the semester was cancelled so I couldn't see the hunk again *sad*. Beby had another class after that which I wasn't enrolled, the final for the subject has been pushed forward so she has to study. I went to the library, printed my Research Methods assignment. Told Arie to call me if he has arrive. A good thing to have your friend as a lecturer is you can call for help anytime XD I was consultating the assignment that he was asked to revised for the class.

There was only Pak Leo in the room. My gosh, the room was full, packed, with paperworks. I was so bored, since I didn't bring any book with me at that time, so I took a look at some of the brochures at Arie's desk. He told me that my title is so interesting. I even showed him how to send SMS to his email, he said, "That'll cost you 350, right?" I didn't mind since he didn't mind to drive us to all those wedding banquets and never asked for the gas money, remember? Why should I bother with only 350?

After the consultation, I noticed the bruises are showing weird colors. The one in the leg won't show, and the one in my left arm are hardly noticeable, because that place is so white, that a strike of green is usually considered as my vein or artery or whatever the name is. Well, I'm glad that I've finished with my first consultation and handed him the second version right after that. XD Crafty, eh?

I asked Ellen and Beby about our date. So we finally did went out. The terrible thing was, there was this event on the same hour we left, so the road was so packed and jammed, the taxi meter worries us. After 10 minutes not moving from our place, we choose to stop and walk to the nearest Pizza Hut. It was in Darmo, the same place we playfully joked to stop by while heading to Pak Yo's wedding when we were caught in traffic jam.

We ordered Large Pan and couldn't finish it >_< Anyways, after that, Beby worked on my first consultation (aside from a lecturer, you have to have a student to double check the assignment as well ). Beby was too tired so she went back alone. Ellen and I crossed the road and hop in to the bus on its way to TP.

What I bought? Don't remind me of an item so small I purchase it with a very high price >_< Even Nakayoshi and Ciao didn't cost as much as that item. I'm wearing it right now XP It's very comfy, though. And finally, the right size. Besides that and Nakayoshi and Ciao, some mangas as well, Ingenuo 2. I couldn't wait for the next volume. :p W Juliet 2, Baby Love 5, and some volumes of Beyond the Blindfold.

I have too much item from Kiyoko Arai. And many more from Mermaid Melody. Errgh. Last 3 edition of Nakayoshi featured Mermaid Melody on its covers. *sick* I gave the items from the last two volumes to Jie Maria (Puku-puku Eraser), Linda (something I couldn't remember), and Beby (Mermaid Melody pencil case, and many more). Now, I got a Tokyo Pop comb, Mermaid Melody Shitajiki (am thinking of using this). Don't know what to do with it.

I left TP with Ellen with leftovers Pizza, some mangas, that small item, a pink shirt (shut up!), etc. My feet hurt like hell. And the bad news was the original landlord and landlady family are home >_< Don't like them at all.

Bahasa

I was looking for Indonesian scientific formal writing format and tips, and what I got is this. Amazing that people from far away places care more about the language itself than we do. All we care about is passing the final exams above the standard limit (4/10). So low. It's your very own Bahasa and you cannot even use it properly? Shame on you. Learn it, like me

Wah, di sana juga ada Ujian Bahasa Indonesia.

Oleh-oleh dari warnet..

Amazing... I don't know that there's a research field about origami in Mathematics. I know I should've taken Math instead of Informatics.

I read Cedric yesterday, and the illustrator is actually an informatics graduate Cedric is a French cartoon. It's also aired in TransTV a few months ago, when I'm able to watch TV. Now? I don't have a clue. I couldn't even watch RAVE T_T

Good, just what I need. Learn about Accessible Form and the ultimate list of links for WebStandards.

I just tried my university's website template, and it turns out it's fast. But, those who used CSS for styling loads its content faster than those who used table for styling. I think I should think a way of optimizing the pictures' sizes.

Got this Love Joke on my campus email. Shun, you should read until the last part. XDD
