I am living my dream! Today’s sermon reminded me that we do not have the ability to see the future. It is not ours; it is way beyond our knowledge.…

Most of IT students in the world, at least they heard about Java. It is a popular programming language which can be used in many platforms, including Android. But once when I asked one of my friends what Java means, he said it is some kind of coffee. Indeed, the inventor named the language he developed inspired by a delicious coffee named Java. But the reality is, Java is not a kind of coffee. It is an island. An island where I was born. And then I explained that we have our own language and even our own writings, I even googled the example of those writings.
He did not seem to be interested though 🙁
I was making a promise to myself that I would write at least one article in a month, at least as my own milestone. But then exams happen. This time, exams are really hard, harder than ones I had before this. And with those exam revisions, readings, practices, and my family also came to stay with me, made me unable to think of words to write in my blog.
I wrote this on last days of July, but I will put it as an entry in June.
I used to listen to this song since I was a kid, because my family members love Queen’s songs, we have some of their albums. Eventhough I listened to this song many times before, but once I heard this song played on the radio in the middle of the night, and suddenly I felt Freddy Mercury‘s sad endings. That time, I told myself that this must be his last song, but I didn’t know the truth about this song, until this evening. All of a sudden I want to hear it once again, and wikipedia says that this really is his last song!
For every Mercury’s fan all over the world, behold, and let us celebrate this masterpiece!
Yes, I was a marching band guy when I was in junior high school. Strange enough, because actually I have no talent in playing any instrument. I just loved to see those marching band guys proudly playing their musics with formations, and then I joined.
After audition, I got accepted in horn line squad, trumpet 2 instrument before moved to trumpet 1 in my second year of junior high school. I never felt convident in playing those instruments, but yet I enjoyed the hard trainings. Yes, the training was so hard that I spent my whole sundays at school. When I was in my first year, the squads are so great; we got pure talents such as Adin and Chiang in horn line. Then we got Ginanjar and Rifky on melo. But the next year, when they retired, it seemed that the next generation never leveled their abilities. I was supposed to be in Adin or Chiang’s position, but I just couldn’t play it well. Luckily we had Anita, so trumpet 1 was saved.
With this post, I’m officially open a new category of my blog, called English Corner. Taa daaaa!
Haha, perhaps I’m over-reacted 😛
I now realize that building english sentences should be learned, even I got high Toefl score on my last test, it doesn’t count if I’m not practicing. Actually my side job as a site reviewer helps a lot starting this practice, and maybe starting from that reviewing I will continue make english articles, eventough it’s hard for the first few times.
