Out of my head

rianvalentino — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 03:14:31 +0000

Is it song that represent my feelings lately? I guess so. This morning I’m thinking of every matter I have, whats problem that makes me always feel weak. Lately I tried to go out of the things, did some excersice, to improve my phisical condition. I always failed. Have I already been desperate? I don’t know, I don’t realise what’s going on with my self. Everything has run out of control, I couldn’t manage my daily anymore. It isn’t about job, it isn’t about friends, it isn’t about relatives. In fact my condition has decrease. I strived to come up to follow every steps that suggested to me, but I couldn’t. What is this? I don’t know, I’m so vurnerable. How could I be so blind..

my Gratitude

rianvalentino — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 07:03:43 +0000

Ya Allah, please forgive me for my sins. Forgive me ya Allah for my foolness, my carelessness, my bad manner, bad habits, for my mistakes that I’ve done either intentionally or unintentionally.
I admited my weakness ya Rabb, please hold me on Your Shoulder ya Rabb. I wanna rely on You forever.
When I was far away from You, actually You still kept Your Eyes on me, You overlooked me day and night. And with Your blessing, You touched my soul. With Your love, you straightened my path. You lights my way.
I always grumbled anything happened to me. In fact You have given me so many gifts. My graduation, my kind family, my staunch beau.
Its so improper ya Rabb.
I’m so grateful for all these.
Ya Allah please ya Rabb, help me to build my faith, give me an ease to pray on you, to be in Your way.
Ya Allah, strengthen my soul
I don’t want to see piece by piece my mistakes in the past. Just look ahead and surrender all things to my Allah
Amin

Kober’s chicken noodles

rianvalentino — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 08:55:15 +0000

Kober’s chicken noodles is located on jalan kober UI Depok, opposite to UI’s shelter. I don’t know exactly whether this chicken noodle is popular enough or not in Depok. There are so many chicken noodles vendors around depok. I almost know all tasty chicken noodles site in Depok. Because chicken noodles is my favorite food. In my opinion, one of many delicious chicken noodles in depok is kober’s chicken noodles. I often hunt this food with my girlfriend, my sister, and my relatives as well. 2 bowl of chicken noodles are enough to pamper my self.
How can I be so deliriously to consume this food? This is the story
Formerly, when I was still a college student, occasionally I didn’t attend a class due to being lazy. So I decided to come to warnet, to kill my boring time. And the most visited warnet was neodarma at kober. As I enjoyed browsing, usually the man who sold chicken noodles came into warnet and offered every neodarma visitors. I was interested to try this because my stomach at that time was hungry as well. Once I tried this food, the taste was also good enough, so I ordered once more, over and over until finally I become kober’s chicken noodles addicted. Hehehe
I invited my acquintance to try this food as well, and most of them never reject as I offered them to ordered second bowl. Actually this chicken noodles is similar to many usual chicken noodles. There are noodles, cracker “krupuk pangsit”, dice of chicken, little bit mustard green, sauce,and other special ingredients in a bowl. The taste was so “ngeblend bgt” hehehe, so different from others chicken noodles. Especially if you soak the “cracker”, more delicious.
Its also cheap, reasonable for a yummy bowl of chicken noodles. It costs just 5000 rupiahs per bowl. Enough to make you full and satisfied.
So if you intend to visit UI, or hang around in Depok, don’t forget to lay over this site. Although the place now isn’t as shady as before (because of the tree as a shade now has been cut down due to expansion of the margonda’s street) but it doesn’t lessen my appetite and my passion to go there.
Oh iya, as an additional information nih, kober’s chicken noodle open everyday at 7 am to 5 pm.
Don’t miss it nduti
Hehehe

Something in the past

rianvalentino — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 01:41:53 +0000

Trying to remind sweet memories in the past, I start out to make up a story about that. It was a couple years ago, when I was still in junior high school. In the beginning as a newcomer of junior high school student, I felt happiness in me. After succeed to reach desirable school, I set off running my days as a student.
Everything was new for me, friends, environment, surroundings, teachers, activities.
One made me impressed, she was ana. Of course it is not her true name, I intensionally keep her true name as a secret, I’m afraid my girlfriend will be jealous and getting angry when she reads this story.
I was so impressed with clever, sprightly, dilligent and outstanding girl like her.
I began know her when my friend,
Andi borrowed my book, and he brought back to me through ana. I still remembered that day when she did it and told something to me.
“Are you rian?” She asked.
“Yes I’m” I said
And then she continued with question
“This is your book from andi” she added
“Oh yes, thanks” I replied
Actually its so simple conversation. But so touchy for me.
Several days before that occasion, my classmate, denih often related me to her. Every moment she came to my class, denih always teased that girl. I guessed denih wanted me to get along with her.
Ana known as clever student, she always gets top rank in her class. She was good in mathematic, phisic, biology, and other subjects, especially in english. She ever criticized english teacher when the teacher taught something’s wrong.
Once, I met ana in a mathematic lesson, its unusual that ana attended my class. In fact ana also took that lesson but had different schedule with me. I was happy and ana’s presence made me on fire to follow the lesson.
Honestly, I didn’t have any braveness to get along with. Because I was too shy, and felt inferior to her. During that period, I just enjoyed staring her cute, and beautiful face. Hehehe…
Its ok I thought, as long as it could make me more dilligent to come school and to study to get the best senior high school.
It had run for a year after I knew ana. And I almost reached my graduation. I always appreciated every single moment we met at library, canteen, basketball field, and so on. Emerged a will in my heart to follow her choise to get best senior high school. For this reason, I must strived harder, because she must have big passion to get favorite school as well.
Until this time, everything was ok. My achievement at school was excelent too.
Time for study tour to jogja.
Its a great moment when I was so falling for her. We went to jogja by train. Took a day to arrive there. At jogja’s railstation, there were 2 busses waiting for our arrival and ready to bring us everywhere around jogja. We bound to our occupancy provided by our teachers, and took a rest for a day. I enjoyed the situation. We spent our time to hang out around our occupancy, bought nasi uduk for breakfast, looking around enjoying the circumstance of special town like jogja, its street seller peddled the jogja’s traditional dishes.
For a moment we forgot about our tension at school.
A day later, we began our trip, I forgot which is the sequence and first place to come over. But we visited borobudur, malioboro, prambanan, tawang mangu, and many places for a week.
One moment at borobudur when it was raining and we were “soaked” and borobudur awashed. I saw ana, with her umbrella walking around borobudur. Its difficult to describe the situation. So sweet
She’s really my angle who gave me high spirit every moment.
I just bought some souvenirs, such as wallet, buckle, and shirts.
I don’t want to tell the story as we’re in jogja in detail. Because, I’m kind of dizzy now.
So btw, lastly we went back to jakarta, and directly must face the exams.
Oh iya, I forgot to describe about ana. Ana is a simple girl, had black and long hair until her shoulder, rather tall, about 165-170, rather white, and she always looked ordely, at a glance similar to dea ananda.
Oke, I got the good result in my exam, and deserved to choose a good school. But because of little reason, I couldn’t follow ana’s choise to continue her study outside our town… Hiks
So its not long time, we would be separated. I must encounter my profound grief, to loss ana forever.
I felt my sad days over and over, loneliness, and emptiness accompanied me everytime from that moment.
Felt like no spirit to run my day, my dream looked far away and would be ruined.
Difficult to come up, and in fact my achievement in senior high scholl decreased sharply.

Simpangan Hospital

rianvalentino — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 00:21:24 +0000

It was monday 091109 that I must check up my condition again at simpangan hospital. I was ready to go after taking a bath, eating and drinking some drugs. I was with my mother and sister. We left off our house empty at 7 am. We didn’t need to register the sequence number to meet a doctor anymore because we had done it at home before by phone. Dr Agoes hadn’t come yet so we waited for a moment.
Finally he came, and I hurried to came in his room.
He asked and checked my condition. He found some stains on my feet and hand, he determined that it was alergic. So I was asked to check my blood at laboratory.
Anyway, that night my condition was good enough.
Tomorrow morning, as usual when I woke up, I felt so tired, felt like do not have a power to do anything. Its long enough I kept rely on the bed. Tried to garner my energy, but I couldn’t. At noon, after having lunch, that stomach disorder came over and over. I felt colicky in my stomach, dried in my throat, and rather dizzy, my nerve was shaking, heavier to take a breath, my palm prespired. I came to my mother and told about my condition. My mother phoned her friend to ask dr Agoes’s phone number. And directly dial up dr Agoes’s number. He suggested to bring me to Simpangan Hospital.
We went there by cab because my sis was going to the campus.
I arrived right away and came into the ugd room to take some threat.
Lastly I must be hospitalized for 3 dayslong anymore.

its gonna be over

rianvalentino — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 03:27:57 +0000

Now, I’m sprawling on the bed weak, my stomach rather queasy. My mind’s flying here and there. Inside my heart buried so many unfinished stuffs.
Please, help me out of these things.
I have just backed home after hospitalized for 3 days.
I believe of my God will recuperate my condition. God willing…
Hope and pray

Moving Out

rianvalentino — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 05:52:41 +0000

it is august 17th 2009 and two days ago i have just moved out to the new house near al-ikhwan mosque. i dont know my feeling. i cant say anything, speechless 2 dayslong. i kept my mouth locked. circumstance was so crowded. my relatives came here after we had moved out our household appliance. i also had already tidied up my room, not all set, but at least deserve to use.
accompanied by michael jackson’song “i’ll be there” i write this small note.
talk about my english, absolutely i am so satisfied with my achievement. i have improved a lot. nevertheless i have to sacrifice many things. i have been willing spend many times to touch my “english book”. this english book i meant that book by which i always bring everywhere beside my dictionary. the content is just about the strange words i found in many references, textbooks, magazines, newspaper and so on. i underlined the words that i didnt understand. i must do it because i think this is the best or even efective method in learning english. through this way, my vocabulary would be enriched.
This is what i called “big intention”. i regard after my graduation in bachelor degree, my role hasn’t been finished yet.
i still rest my handicap. i know for this matter i must pay alot and got the bad voices, alusion to hurry in getting a job from everywhere, my parent, my relative, friends.
rather selfish really, but i can feel the result.
long time slept without realise that someday i will be independent. i know i cant depend on my parent always. The matters that i learned in university were just making me fraught with knowledge. it is not enought. we must have skills beside our knowledge. those two things that can be our experiences in our future.
sometimes i feel sad to be accused by the others “laze all dayslong” it made me hurted, dissapointed and down exactly. i wanted to cry up, but i couldn’t.
speechless, speechless, so on.

i just hope God bless my way, giving me cozy shade to rely on. i dont know whereas this way has made all people surround me angry, decried, denounced.

but above all, i give my thanks to Allah for this chances, this strength, this easiness for me to learn, and i always satisfied for this. i am sure, god wiling, someday, this will be useful for me, for my family, my relatives, my surroundings and religion even my country.

up to now,i never stop applying my application letter to the companies. presumably, bad luck or somethings else dont know. but stil on going

hopefully i can get a job in a nearest time, and still can increase my english skill.
inverting all alusion, mock, scoff. and of course the most important factor “Lucky”.

revert to my statement before, during my jobless, i usualy go out, hang out to many places, sometimes my campus, mall, UI mosque, and another cozy and tranquil places just for improving my english. you can say i am so delirious, ambitious, voracious to be able to speak english. yeah that’s right. it’s ok as long as i spend my time in useful things than i must spend my time in daydreaming all day long, or giving my sweat for activities that cant make my self improving except exhausted and jaded.

God always sees and knows that. and my beau rasti is a witness of my effort.

the result of my interview test with a marketing staff of pt powerlift mr woo, he said that just because not much longer we will have fasting, so i was asked to wait, if its mine, he will call me up and anounce about training session (about 2 months, dont know exactly). and if accepted, i will be hired after idul fitri. at same time i can still apply to another job.

mr hefry tolukun also called me up last week by phone. after i had sent him message to his email. he said sorry for late replying, he was so busy in decease of his father and also for his jobs. i also sent my condolence to him. he wanted me to call up his friend mr herizon, HRD staff of weatherford. i have ever met him as well. mr hefry introduced me to him. but his phone couldnt be connected. so that i just sent him email.

huhuhu, jobless, time for praying a lot, learning anymore, to drill up my english skill and refresh, deepen about artificial lift, especially ESP. big chances for this job gape open. hopefully this time is mine. amien

Interview Test

rianvalentino — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 11:49:12 +0000

Monday morning,
Ring… Ring…
Me. : Hallo,
Caller : Hallo, is this Rian?
Me. : Yes, who’s speaking?
Caller : This is Marvella from Kangean. We’d like to interview you today, Do you have a time?
Me. : Its so abrupt, I guess I can’t mba
Caller : How about tomorow? At 8 am..
Me. : Ok
Caller : Come to Wisma mulia at 26th floor on jl gatot subroto
Me. : Ok mba, I’ll be on time

Immediately I called up my girlfriend to tell about this. I said of course I was happy, given opportunity to have interview test. But, I wasn’t healthy enough. So, we both looked for a way to attend interview test properly.
I felt constrain to attend interview test tomorrow. I must
That monday, I couldn’t prepare my self very well, because of my condition was still weak and tired. I just hoped I could carry out interview test without panic syndrom attacking me anymore.

On tuesday, daybreak came up. I must wake up right away, and take a bath. The water was so cold. I couldn’t restrain my self to finish it immedietely. After taking wudlu, getting a dress and then did daybreak praying, I ate little bit, and drank condensed milk. And then got off together with my father. We’re in a same way. My father worked at bej.
I got a little jam on uki, cawang, and pancoran. At a same time, my girlfriend was waiting for me at a shelter of wisma mulia building patiently.
Oh iya, my mother also celebrated her birthday today, I almost forgot to give my congratulation to her.
Finally, I arrived at the location. Met my girlfriend and bound to the building. We exchanged our ID card at receptionist and waited!!! Still 6.30, my God, we came earlier. So long to wait.
We settled in at starbuck, and I ate little bread, and swallowed my drugs to recover my body.
I felt nervous, and so difficult to control my self at that time. As I knew, that one of the interviewer was my girlfriend’s older sister.
Oh my God, poor me…
I try to control my self, but still this heart beat fastly. Ihiks
To divert that feeling was really really difficult. I walked here and there to dissipate that feeling. Went to the rest room, went to the starbuck again. Ihiks
I garnered my braveness to go up there, 26th floor, to meet interviewer. I admitted, I staggered along the way to get there. But I couldn’t avoid that, I must…
I just prayed these all would be ok.
Came to 26th floor, I met security to exchange ID card and said that I wanted to meet mba marvella. “Ok please wait” he replied.
I couldn’t cool down my self from nervous feeling. Oh My
She finally came, and brought me to interview room. And ready to interview me with her partner, a man, rather old, about 40 may be.
Damn, interview ran quite long. I was given so many questions. They asked me about my cv in detail. Sentence to sentence. Hiks
I began dizzy. And hopefully the interview test would be over.
And Note!!! They didn’t give me a water to drink!!!
I couldn’t restrain my self actually. But in fact it spent 1 hour and a half to interview me!!!
So exhausted
And also I must continue interview with the user. Oh my, what a hard day it was
Finished interview with them, I came down to 25th floor to face second interview with my girlfriend’s older sister. It was frightening me, hiks,
With this unwell condition I faced it.
I didn’t want to show up my indifference to this interview actually. But the condition forced me to do this. I couldn’t hidden my anxiety, and my strange illness haunted me continously. I just hoped this interview would be over right away.
When I passed by my girlfriend’s sister suite, and came into the VP room. My heart beat faster. Hiks
Feelings liked in the death’s imminent.
I tried to control my self, and she greeted me, and invited some partners to excute me.
Oh my
Some questions successfully to answer. I didn’t think that it was right or wrong. I just hoped this interview would be over right away.
Hiks
Finally, it just spent 30 minutes, and I was accompanied by her to the way out. And hurried to come down on the ground floor.
I called my girlfriend who was waiting for me in starbuck, and exchanged the ID card then called a cab to go home.
Ihiks

Dare to fail

rianvalentino — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 02:07:04 +0000

I trully believe with this John F. Kennedy’s statement. Its just a common statement, but it has proved in my life. Totally failure was my beginning business career.
In the end of 1981, I didn’t feel satisfied with my boring university study. I was encouraged to leave my socially campus life. At that time I thought, failure to get bachelor degree wasn’t a failure in chasing another dream. In 1982, then I commenced my counseling business Primagama. And finally known as learning counseling Primagama foundation.
I ran this business up and down. Initially I just had 2 students, and at the end so many students I had, made me felt constrain to open another branches in hundreds towns. And now, becoming a biggest learning counseling in Indonesia.
In social life, surely the failure is a word which is not good to hear. Failure is not a something desirable. We admit that in fact we prefer to see successful person than failed person. Even dislike failed person.
As far as I’m concerned, as people failed, needless to feel sad, thinking of their failure. But we need seek the cause. Therefore we must feel more challenged with our failed effort. I prefer to use my failure or negative experience to find new strength in order to reach my success.

Quotation

rianvalentino — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 05:57:13 +0000

The coach of real madrid, Manuel pallegrini, admitted, his team faced difficulty to defeat Sporting Gijon when the two teams met in primera league in Municipal El Molinon, on saturday 24/10. Other than facing failure to get score, he didn’t see the problem with his squad. On that match, the score was even. This result they got after losing 2-3 to AC Milan in champions league on wednesday 21/10. Commentators appraised that Ricardo Kaka cs were in crisis owing to unable to use that match as a show up moment.
Pallegrini denied that his squad was in a big deal. Overall he was satisfied with his squad performance. But of course must be improved by Karim Benzema cs. He added, the even score shown increasing of their defence quality. So Madrid is in safe condition.
“First half was so tight. But overall we could control the second half. After respite, we passed the ball very well, and our defence was quite good. We had some opportunities to get score, but just unlucky.” He said.
“Sporting itself constituted a well-organized team. They were really dangerous in counter attack.” He added
After failure to win in last 2 matches, Madrid will try to get 3 point when hosting Getafe on the next Primera Division League, in Santiago Bernabeu, Sunday (1/11). At that time, 3 point is a must.
