Why Ladies Today Still SINGLE!

Chic

Description:

Top reasons why ladies today are still SINGLE

1. The nice men are ugly.

2. The handsome men are not nice.

3. The handsome and nice men are gay.

4. The handsome, nice and heterosexual men are married.

5. The men who are not so handsome, but are nice men, have no money.

6. The men who are not so handsome, but are nice men with money think we are only after their money.

7. The handsome men without money are after our money.

8. The handsome men, who are not so nice and somewhat heterosexual, don’t think we are beautiful enough.

9. The men who think we are beautiful, that are heterosexual, somewhat nice and have money, are cowards.

10. The men who are somewhat handsome,somewhat nice and have some money and thank God are heterosexual, are shy and NEVER MAKE THE FIRST MOVE!!!! 

11. The men who never make the first move, automatically lose interest in us when we take the initiative.

NOW, WHO THE HELL UNDERSTANDS MEN?

"Men are like a fine wine. They all start out like grapes, and it’s our  job to stomp on them and keep them in the dark until they mature into something you’d like to have dinner with."

SEND THIS TO SMART WOMEN WHO NEED A LAUGH AND TO THE GUYS YOU  THINK  CAN HANDLE IT!

*bwahahahahahahaha… Now You see the reason why guys… LOL =))*

**from an email off a friend (I’ve been forwarding this email to everyone I know whose smart and can handle this!! … =P)

Vicious Circle

Some people just never learn… well yeaaaaah… that’s including me sometimes…

Why do you keep falling in the
same situation? Why do you keep being taken advantage of? Why do you
keep getting the same sad ending? Why do you keep hoping for the best?

If
history has taught us anything, it is not to repeat yourself. Yet we
find ourselves trapped in a roundabout making the same mistakes over
and over again. You know, or at least you seem to know, how to get out
of this spiral dive before hitting the ground, but stop short of
pressing the eject button freeing yourself from eternal destruction.

What’s Next???

I still keep in touch with friends that I made in the previous chapter of my life.

This
morning I chatted with one of them on the phone. About one year ago we
were heading off to different directions – I found a job that
finally suited my lifestyle, while she was due to return to Jogja
not knowing what might happen. Today things have worked out well for
both of us; for myself in particular I carry on doing what I enjoy,
with a much better salary than the previous job while living in a city
with all this stuff I need…

For most people, they’d feel life
just couldn’t be better; for me, however, I’m starting to wonder what
may happen next. Life just seems to have been too easy. "I get what I
want" has become my motto, at least for this year so far.

I
still intend to resume my advocate license. And as luck would have it,
last week while meeting some old friends I got to know an experienced advocate and
we’ve been talking a lot about our advocating experience. He even offered
a couple of lessons for free so that I could hopefully one day achieve
his level of success.

So.. what’s next?  Becoming a full time advocate?  Starting my own law firm?  Finding Mr Right or Quite Right?

(not) Lost In Translation

Chic

Baru aja nyelesaian dealing ma orang-orang Jepang, kepala gue udah serasa mau pecah lagi… sia-sia deh keceriaan habis long weekend kemaren di Carita, langsung ilang ga berbekas!!! …hehehehe…

Berawal dari sebuah sms yang masuk pada pukul 17.15 WIB dari Sabtu tanggal 7 April 2007. Bunyi nya singkat aja,.. diharapkan kedatangannya pada meeting di Peacock Cafe The Sultan Hotel jam 19.00 WIB. Hormat saya, Ampuh. SMS yang mampu bikin gue langsung protes… "gue lagi liburaaaaaaaaaaan…" tapi percuma aja karena gue emang sangat diharapkan untuk datang. Jadi lah gue terpaksa mengakhiri liburan gue di Carita hari Minggu pagi dengan terbirit-birit pulang ke Jakarta.

Sampe di Jakarta, langsung heboh telfon sana sini untuk memastikan masalah meeting tersebut. Satu hal yang pasti adalah meeting untuk dealing mengenai Perjanjian Pengikatan Jual Beli tanah proyek Gorontalo dan Pihak Keduanya adalah Japanese. Sampe disini sound interesting karena gue pikir kedatangan gue adalah bukannya hanya karena masalah dealing Perjanjian yang emang udah kerjaan gue sehari-hari, tapi juga lebih ke masalah kendala bahasa… yang pastinya (gue pikirrrrrr…) banyakan ngomong Inggris nya doooong…

Jam 18.30 gue udah sampe di Peacock Cafe, tempat di mana meeting akan dilangsungkan. Ketemu dengan co-worker gue, discuss sebentar masalah project ini sampe akhirnya the Japanese coming straight on 7.00 PM… (huwaaaah Jepang emang selalu tepat waktu!!!).

And…… meeting was about to open…

when suddenly I realize that THEY ARE NOT TALKING IN ENGLISH AT ALL!!!!!! Dan hanya ngerti Bahasa Indonesia sepotong-sepotong!!!
Oh My GOD…….
and the stupid thing is no one told me about the language before!!!!! D**N!!! hellooooo… where’s the translator???!!!!

Jadi lah ini dealing terlama dan terpanjang yang pernah gue lakukan because everything explain in Bahasa… dan harus dilakukan dengan sangat pelaaaaaaaan-pelaaaaaaaan… *d’oh*

Actually sih mereka ngerti kalo gue ngomong in English, tapi mereka ngga bisa ngomong nya (that arogant Japanese that they won’t learn English at all..). So, gue pikir ngapain gue capek-capek ber-Inggris ria, tapi ternyata mereka ga respon juga. Akhirnya yaaaaa… jadi lah dealing seperti yang gue bilang di atas tadi…
*huwaaaaaaah… cuapeeeee deeeeeh*

Tapi yaaaaa untung nya dealing selesai juga barusan. Setelah bikin gue *sakit kepala mode on* seharian ini… kerjaan itu selesai juga. Sampe diprotes sama divisi laen, kita kapan lo urus chiiiiii… Aduuuh maaf kan diriku ya hari ini ga bisa melayani semuanya… wakakakaka… kalo bisa gue cloning diri gue jadi 10, gue lakukan deh pastinya… =P

Satu hal yang pasti gue belajar,… Bahasa itu penting banget biar ga lost in translation kayak gue kemaren. So, sebangga apa pun kita ma bahasa yang kita punya, belajar bahasa lainnya itu penting banget kalo mau punya bisnis berskala internasional!… terutama yaaaa bahasa internasional yang diterima semua umat deeeeh… hehehehehe…

yuuuuuks….
*buru-buru ngacir ke pusat bahasa….. mo belajar bahasa apa lagi yaaa???*
