to the beach again..
i went to the caylabne bay in cavite for summer outing of my department..
it took 3 hour ride by bus from the office..
the beach, though not to spacious, was still nice to see..
white sand, the wave, the wind, the sound, the horizon, the water, love it..
there were some games for kids and adults..lots of prizes..
the food was good and especially halo-halo freshlight in coconut was excellent..
i got to sing some songs on the karaoke, and got small temporary tattoo.. 
..
well, everybody was having a good time..
i hope i could have other beaches to come..
i do love beaches..!!
my mom is undergoing a surgery right at this moment of time..
i hope that everything would run smoothly and soundly..
i feel bad about leaving her with her health condition like that..
there’s something about a mother that results in a different view with her kid(s)..
what kid commonly ecpects is for the mother to be taken good care of..
on the other hand, mother seemingly knows much better what is best for her and this might be completely different with the kid’s view of being better off condition for her..
this different in perspective sometimes creates an awkward situation for me..
this is much similar to the cultural relativism thought in cultural aspect of human kind..
human knows what’s good for him/her compare to others..
the challenge of this thought is that human might choose a way that common people believe as an not-so-good approach..
i do very much love her, but does loving her mean that i have to compromise to whatever she thinks and does that might not good for her life?..i’ve tried my best to understand the situation..
i’m not certain but i do know that she is my mother and she always loves her kids..
dear Allah, please give her healthiness and happiness in life..
what’s kepengenan? it’s a new emerging word derived from dewi’s blog..
maybe it has something to do with wishes..
she asks me to do my wishes, 5 wishes..well, that would be easy..why’s only 5?..
on the second thought, 5 should be enough, i don’t have much to ask anyway..
number one, i wish to have a beautiful-smart looking wife..she needs to be beautiful and smart (what a rare combination huh ..), otherwise things won’t be work that well..as a wiseman say, grasses look greener in the neigbourhood..positive thinking, i’d like us to share dreams and explore the beauty of life as one..
number two, i wish to have a beach house..it’s because i like the wind, the wave, the sound, the serenity and everything about natural beach..
number three, i wanna go for Haj pilgrimage..i have planned it for this year to happen..hopefully, wish me luck please..there’s no reason for this, i just feel wanting to do it..
as for number four, i expect myself to run a company or later having the company of my own, that will be known as the best ethical and environmental-friendly company that offer excellent services to its customer and community..i’ll personally make it happen..
number five, i wanna have lots of kids to foster, send them to good schools, educate them, cherish them with love, flourish them with religious values, teach them to be tough leaders and good team players, equip them with outstanding talents and first-rate personality..
that will be all..
i dunno how it would happen..just wish that my wishes will somehow come into reality..
heart and mind is the center of human stance..
heart drives the mood and motivation whereas mind contributes to prediction, simulation and anticipation..
both determine whether you’re gonna be satisfactory or miserable by the end of the day..
there’re many factors affecting your heart and mind everyday..
your experience, environment, impression, knowledge, intelligence and creativity are among them..
one of the ways to optimize heart & mind set is to plan for your happy days and prepare for your worse days..
try out new experience will enhance the heart and mind capacity..
bravery is the power and being adventurous is the spirit..
lock on, bring it on and get it done gracefully..
happy birthday fi..
long-lasting happily life..
you’ve been a wonderful friend to me..
you’ve the only person that i can talk much about my personals..
you have this caring personality that hardly found elsewhere..
another great value you have is a sense of problem-solving orientation..firm, confident, creative and wise as well..i would say that you’re also a fun type person and have cheerful ideas to warm the time..
i miss having you around again..i enjoyed every moment we shared..
thank you so much for being a good friend of mine..
i wish you happiness, healthiness and having enjoyable days to come..
and keep on enlighting the days with you shine..
happy birthday as well to dewi and kelly, my sweet buddies..
there’s a new indonesian restaurant in the neighbourhood..bali blends cafe at megamall ground floor..it opens at 7am till 1am, serving breakfast upto midnight supper..the menus include sup ayam, sup buntut, rendang, gulai ayam, pergedel kentang, martabak, mie goreng, nasi goreng, ikan goreng asam pedas, wajik, godoh and other mandatory cafe cuisine..the best thing about this cafe is the halal certification, no pork/beacon and liquour served..a rare thing in the city..for me it’s like an oasis in a dessert..
