Fragile…

The Road Not Taken
by Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Almost a year I’ve been living in Brisbane..

Many things happened here..

I’m glad that I’ve got a chance to study here..

But…

If only I knew I will lose you, I wouldn’t come here..

I wish I could turn back time..

I always think I’ve choose the wrong way now..

I’m going back home soon Dad..

Home will never be the same without you..

Dad, I miss you..

Letter for my beloved dad..

Dear Dad,

-dev-

silly thoughts..

after a long conversation with my mom………..

 

i wonder..

is there anyone in this world… that would generously gave me everything the best that he had ( i mean really the best), even if i didnt ask him to…

well.. as far as i know, i never met that kinda guy..

..maybe im not that lucky enough yet..

 

Sorry God, for asking another silly things again…. im jst hoping too much, aint i??

hufff…. wake up dev… stop daydreaming!!!….

actually there’s a philosophy saying, “if you want to give something to someone else, give the best one not the bad one”…

Im trying to put that philosophy to my daily life now, eventhough sometimes it’s hard to do it…

imagine if you have two bags, one is new and the other is old.. and suddenly your sister, or your brother, or your girl/boyfriend really needs a bag.  would you give the new one to him/her?

that’s the challenge of your heart…….. goodluck

I’m Yours

singing time..

let’s sing..

i am not yours.. i jst like this song..

I’M YOURS  by JASON MRAZ:

dududu…dududu…

Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you’re so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
and now I’m trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I’ll be giving it my bestest
Nothing’s going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon its again my turn to win some or learn some

I won’t hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I’m Yours 

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you’re free
Look into your heart and you’ll find love love love
Listen to the music of the moment people dance and sing
we’re  just one big family
It’s your God-forsaken right to be loved love love love love

So I won’t hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I’m sure
There’s no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I’m yours

I’ve been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and laughed
I guess what I’m saying is there ain’t no better reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
It’s what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue

But I won’t hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I’m sure
There’s no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I’m yours

Well no no, well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you’re free
Look into your heart and you’ll find the sky is yours  

Theres no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I’m yours

Im always be yours……………..

Mentoring Night..

Three days ago, my convenor took me and 9 of my friends (all Indonesian) to the mentoring night program Environment Institute of Australia and New Zealand (EAINZ) – South East Queensland Division.  So, that nite we went to Charlotte Street to go to that meeting.

Well..when we got there, we should put our name-tag so everyone would know our name. There was about 20 people there, 5-6 people who became mentors and the rests are students or beginner staff. I thought all mentors came from the Environmental background, but i was wrong. Some of them are from IT (same as me) and engineering..:)  So, we started that nite, 6 mentors were sitting in different tables, and then we could freely sit wherever table we want. After some minutes, we switched seats, so we could talk with other mentors as well..

So, the night started with talking about everyone’s job…. All the mentors are specialist in their jobs. There are GIS expert, environment consultants, EPA expert, and so on..

Talking about my job.. to tell you the truth, i don’t have any background in Environment. So, here is my story why i stick in Brisbane, Australia right now..

I graduated from Gunadarma University, Jakarta. Luckily, i didn’t have to wait long for a job. I directly accepted as a staff in a government institution, Ministry of Environment (of course, after passed some test and interview..). The first time i entered the office, i thought they’re going to put me in Information Unit as my background was from IT. Well, they put me in Accounting Unit, which I really really hate accounting. I learnt a bit about accounting in my Uni, n didn’t like it. I was kinda upset that day, never in my life that i want to be an accountant, i never want to involve with anything with money. But i couldn’t say any words of it.  I need the job.

Working wasn’t a new a thing for me. I previously worked in Gunadarma as an English assistant in a Language Laboratory for about 2 years.  So, my day at the new office was very slowly. Even though, now I realize that accounting is an important thing to learn and I started to enjoy my job as an accountant.

One day, I had an offered for a master degree to Australia. I took it, because i really interested in environment. Why should i work in Ministry of Environment if I don’t know anything about environment? So, with a gut, I flew to Brisbane, for a Master of Environment, without any background nor experience at all. So..here i am now, meeting new people and sharing experience..:)

it’s kinda mix-up for me hey..  IT – Accountant – Environment..  lol.. that’s what my life now.. colourful!!!

Note: you’ll never know where’s destiny takes you, until it happens to you..   ^_^

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well.. after that mentoring night, we went to the cassino to have some coffees and live music.. -end-
