Backup Systems

Bsk3pu2hcz
Gara-gara ngomongin soal back up mem-back up sama temen gue sepanjang waktu lunch tadi siang, gue jadi inget pelajaran paling berharga yang gue dapet from working the past few years – a good backup system.

Biarpun gue ga kerja di bidang IT atau multimedia system dan pekerjaan-pekerjaan sejenis lainnya, faedah back up system itu sangat penting gue rasakan.

Dulu neh, jaman gue masih menggunakan "jendela" sebagai OS kompie gue, gue amat sangat takut kalo kompie gue terinfected virus yang emang sangat amat terkenal meracuni kompie-kompie ber-OS "jendela". Bahkan sempet parno kalo ada temen yang mo ngambil data or whatever di kompie gue dengan menggunakan flash disk. Tau doooong penyebaran virus bertitel "brontok" itu lewat apa. Soalnya pernah sih kompie gue matot alias tamat cuma gara-gara flash disk bervirus itu. Bernyawa lagi setelah diinstall ulang dengan OS "jendela" yang ASLI, dan anti virus paling canggih… bwahahahahaha… udah ada anti virus paling canggih itu, tetep aja gue parno kalo ada temen gue nongol bawa-bawa flash disk sambil senyam senyum di depan gue trus dengan santai nya bilang … "chichiiiii… minta koleksi lagu lo doooong"… Wuaaaaah, harus dipastikan dulu flash disk nya bervirus atau ngga!!!

Gara-gara kena brontok itu lah, gue jadi sadar pentingnya backup system. Soalnya, even kompie gue akhirnya bernyawa lagi, tetep aja data-data kerjaan gue yang selama ini gue save di kompie itu lenyap ga berbekas, ga bisa direstore. Si brontok itu kan menduplikat semua data-data gue yang ada dikompie, dan ketika dibuka data itu, seketika itu juga data itu hilang ga berbekas! Biarpun gue ga menyimpan data sekelas data-data orang IT or multimedia lainnya, tapi contoh-contoh perjanjian, legal opinion, dan peraturan-peraturan hukum yang gue simpen disitu sama pentingnya buat gue!!! But there’s nothing I can do more except filing it again one by one… capek kaaaan… coba kalo di backup, ntah itu di CD or another external HD.

Capek parno ma virus, and curiga mlulu ma antivirus yang dodol, dan merasa ga sempet buat nyari external HD buat backup system – gue pikir ganti OS sekalian… huahahahahaha…
Jadilah buat backup system gue sekarang, gue menggunakan OS macintosh dengan kompie putih nya nan cantik yang sekarang jadi kesayangan gue ini. Jadi, biarpun gue masih mendua kadang-kadang menggunakan "jendela" dan ga sempet-sempet juga beli external HD buat backup, sengga-ngganya gue ga parno kayak dulu coz of this lovely white mac. It’s virus proof sooob!!!! mau brontok  kayak apa juga, ga ngaruuuhhhh…. =P

Then, the conversation with a friend this day got me thinking about
backups in life. Most people have a steady job, a nice home and not
much else to worry about. But what happens when all of a sudden that
stability is taken away? Some will put aside money for the rainy days,
but would it be enough to survive on?

I’ve taken this approach
rather seriously. Sedikit banyak gue punya a comprehensive backup system in place
in my life – a spare alarm clock, a spare mobile phone, a spare pair of
glasses and even, like I said before, a spare laptop.

I can’t help but wonder if I
should expand the system to include other aspects, so that I can keep
life going smoothly no matter what. Perhaps a backup source of income?

….


or a backup lover?

hehehehehe…. =P

Flying High, Going Where?

Cv8lsjt3sk


Again, someone send me this picture through email.
And as usual, it got me to think about something (why a picture always leaves a lot of questions in my mind??? aaaarrrrgh!)

Contrails are trails of condensed air exhaust from aircraft engines
when flying at high altitudes. From the ground, they look like white
streaks across the sky. I had a rare chance to see them at a
much closer distance from the another aircraft (sapa juga sih yang pernah liat… hihihihi).

The
sight seemed to represent the progress of life. The sky is seamless,
but which direction are you heading to? Are you merely following the
short-lived contrails left behind by others as guidance? And, as you
cruise along, you too are making contrails you cannot turn your head to
see but they may be leading or misleading others.

But whatever
happens, from the ground these white lines are only temporary, and
whichever direction you go, moments later when they disappear from the
sky your track becomes history and may only be remembered with an image
capture (spectacular image isn’t it?).

…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
