          lg lunchtime. barusan blogwalking baca punyanya neng Wenni. secara lg liburan update-nya banyak bangedd.

si eneng cerita dapet sms lebaran berjumlah 274. hmm. saya jd minder. barusan nengok hp, cuma dapet sms lebaran 6 biji. waduh. apakah berarti kurang temen?

aside from the # of text messages received, I'd like to share my experiences so far ber-Lebaran diluar Indonesia for the past 12 yrs.

PUASA in principle

in principle, keluarga saya memang sejak dulu kurang begitu mempraktekkan puasa dirumah. Islam sih Islam, cuma emang kita ngga saklek. yg guaranteed ga pernah bolong ya... (more)</description>

      <description>haduh ... br nyadar udah lama ga update for about 2 months now.

ini gara-garanya karna saya baru-baru ini dapet promotion di kantor, naik pangkat ceritanya. eittt ... buat yg pada minta traktir, tolong ya, di kantor saya: getting a promotion = more responsibilities with same pay.

bener deh, sudah nyoba nego naik gaji, tp dibilangin secara ada salary range overlap between my old position (senior manufacturing engineer) &amp;amp; the new position (operations program manager), utk sementara tahun ini saya ngga dapet extra raise.

sebenernya sih saya ngga gitu keberatan soal ngga naik gaji. tapi... (more)</description>

      <description>saya bener2 ngga punya disiplin deh. udah tau kerjaan di kantor banyak bener, plus wedding planning yg terbengkalai, tp msh aja rajin blogwalking.

barusan baca blog-blog 2 orang temen. tentang upaya mereka dlm rangka mengejar gebetan2 tercinta. I couldn't help but noticed that both girls seem to be completely unaware that their targets are sooo ... not interested.

it's obvious to me (the reader) that these 2 lovely girls are pretty much &quot;throwing themselves&quot; on these bastardy gebetans. but why couldn't they see it?

gatel sih pengen ngomentarin, tp masih menahan-nahan. after all, I'm not... (more)</description>

      <description>apparently I've been causing a commotion with my last blog entry, the *planning a wedding* part  ...

so yes, please save the date, my dearest lovely friends &amp;amp; families, the Indonesian ceremony date is now set for 8/8/08. 

no .. it's not because it's a &quot;cool&quot; date, rather it was the date that was recommended by my mom after consulting Primbon Jawa, huahahaha - taking into consideration my birthdate &amp;amp; Jim's. ada tambahannya lagi: akad nikahnya harus diatas jam 4 sore .

there will be a Chinese banquet in Boston, too, tapi blom ditentuin tanggalnya. masih nyari2 resto yg ga mahal. plus... (more)</description>

no ... I haven't stopped blogging. but after you read this one entry, you prolly will understand why I've been absent .

this past month, I've been having multiple anxiety attacks ... thanks to my U.S green card application process. and if you think US government bureaucracy is any better than the Indonesian one, well, that's where you're wrong.

skitar awal Juni, my immigration lawyer notified me that my labor certification has been approved. the next step was now to formally apply for permanent residency. biasanya, saya tuh bukan tipe org yg suka menunda2, apalagi kalo urusan imigrasi... (more)</description>

      <description>I've been vindicated - wooooohoooo!!!

so this is a continuation story to my previous blog entry. about how my technical argument kept getting shot down by the little skinny blonde bitch. I forgot to mention that she quoted industry standard as well as one of the industry expertise to support her side of the argument. that was what made me feel so low - I had thought that having been in this business for ~8 yrs, I should know more than she does.

but guess what? I contacted this industry expert &amp;amp; had lengthy conversation w/ him last night &amp;amp; this morning. it turned out that:
he never... (more)</description>

      <description>sebenernya ... banyak topik2 blog yg seru utk ditulis &amp;amp; di-diskusi ...
sebenernya ... the recent 14-hr days in front of the computer are not enough to shy me away from updating my blog ...
sebenernya ... doing yardwork every weekend does not really make me too tired to update my blog ....

tp apa daya, tetep aja malesss ... no, I ran out of excuses. kali ini bener2 karena lagi super be-te sama keadaaan dunia kantor.

so let me tell you a story (skalian curhat). career-wise, terus terang I've been quite successful. no, ini bukan dlm rangka narsis, bukan karna ge-er &amp;amp; besar kepala,... (more)</description>
