…With You…

Now i’m sure…
With you, we’ll flying together
Catching thousand of dreams
Until the sky itself make us flying

With You…
I will tell my secrets and my fairytails
I will tell you my dreams, my illusion friend
And i know you’ll have a lots of time to listen

I will never know what the future brings
But as you said to me, you’ll take the risks for being with me…
With you, i’m sure

I’m thankful I met you, Dear

Spam SMS Menyebalkan!

Waktu di salah satu milis yang gue ikutin heboh soal spam SMS beberapa bulan yang lalu, gue rada bertanya-tanya sebenernya, apaan sih spam SMS, kalo spam email sih gue tau… Tapi rada ngga peduli juga, karena gue sebagai pelanggan Halo Telkomsel sejak medio tahun 97an ngga pernah tuh dapet SMS-SMS seperti yang diributin di milis itu.

Dan ketika dua bulan yang lalu gue memutuskan untuk menggunakan operator lain untuk memisahkan urusan kerja dan urusan pribadi gue di dua nomor berbeda, dan berniat untuk menggunakan layanan Blackberry nya dalam waktu dekat (cuma handset belum bisa kebeli… hiks… *grin*), mendaftarlah gue ke XL Xplore. Sejak dua bulan nomor itu aktif, sejak saat itu lah gue selalu dibombardir dengan spam-spam SMS yang terus terang sangat menyebalkan, mulai dari gue bangun tidur sampe waktu gue mo tidur lagi! Dan yang bikin paling menyebalkan adalah isi nya itu ga penting banget!!!!

Yang paling parah, spam-spam SMS itu bisa masuk sampe puluhan setiap hari nya. Kayak hari ini aja, sampe jam gue nulis blog ini (which is jam gue menunjukan pukul 11:47 AM) udah ada 3 spam SMS masuk di inbox gue. Gue lagi ngebayangin kalo seandainya layanan Blackberry nya sudah gue pergunakan secara pribadi, kan akan sangat mengganggu kalo pas gue lagi nunggu-nunggu email penting ternyata yang masuk malah spam SMS. Aaaaarrrrgh… that will be so annoying!!!

Gue heran deeeh kenapa sih XL 818 itu senang sekali men-spam pelanggan-pelanggannya dengan SMS-SMS ngga penting itu? Ngga cukup kah dengan mereka menpromosikan acara tersebut di iklan-iklan yang mereka buat di media massa, sehingga harus juga men-spam pelanggan? Dan kalo emang XL mendapatkan keuntungan dari spamming ke pelanggan, harusnya yaaaa ada timbal balik dong buat pelanggan yang di spam. Gratis biaya telfon or GPRS mungkin? hehe..

Ada yang tau cara filtering spam SMS ini?
Kalo di email sih kan tinggal di setting untuk di saring oleh si mail client untuk mengurangi datangnya spam email. Tapi kalo SMS kan merupakan satu kiriman yang ngga bisa kita tolak. Semua kiriman SMS akan dengan lancar masuk ke dalam inbox hape. Jadi secara teknis rasanya ngga mungkin ditolak… hueeeeeeh!!! Beda dengan telfon yang bisa kita reject atau di keep silent dengan sama sekali ga diangkat, kalo SMS.. akan tetap terkirim!
Atau ada yang tau smartphone yang bisa blacklisting SMS? =P
Atau bikin protes yoook ke operator yang suka ngirim spam SMS… hehehehehe

a new day?

A lot of things happen last day… And when I opened up my eyes this morning, there’s one quote that repeating cross my mind. It says "There’s only two choices when you wake up from your sleep in the morning, either you can continue to sleep and continue your dream OR you can get up from your bed to begin a day and catch up what you dream!"
*has forgotten from where I’ve got that quote…*

so well,… here I am…
and I guess you know what I choose.. *grin*

It’s monday morning… hell yeah it’s a new day!
Thanks to God,… Thanks to you all my deareast friends…

and thanks to you too, honey

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?
