Today Is A Beautiful Day

This is the first time i felt like i am doing something useful for my life. Something that earn me some pride, when I feel that my work is appreciated.

This is my first achievement, because it is the first time I make something that can be viewed by many people. This is the first time I have someone asked my what I am thinking about and have it done. This is the first time where my crazy idea isn't just a crazy idea, but something that would be used in the future.

I used to think that I don't want to work in the place I am working right now. It is because of the working time that cannot be predicted. Sometimes you can get all your day, but in another day, you should working extra to get things done in time

I like it where I am now. Where can I find a working place which can give me a warm welcoming like this. I know it is not the biggest advertising agency in Indonesia, but still I have to score here, so that I can score bigger later.

Even the internet sucks, but at least I can make some manipulation to make things going right. At least I can make some settings to make the internet working again.

Things are getting better. those guys only need some times to adapt with a girl in the team. Good then.. I have a smoking buddies now at least. I like it here now. And since today is a beautiful day.. I like everything... even now I cannot smoke because the smoking room is used for the meeting right now.
today is a beautiful day

In the Internship job

Now I am working at an Advertising company. It's a big loop in my life, even it's just an internship, but it is a good beginning to learn many things.
Well, actually, I like the place I am working right now, because it is not too far from where I am living. But there are still some difficulties I should face.
The first is my own team. It is a man-team, and as the only girl in the team, sometimes i just felt casted out from the team.
I believe in equality, where I can work as good as they do, but how can I work that well if i never able to get the opportunities to be better?
The second is the slow internet connection. As a copywriter I need to do many research. And to do that I need a good internet connection. Sometimes I can't even open the fastest site I usually open even I blocked all the images.
I can't imagine how people download from here.
So far so good. I can deal with people here even I don't really like some of them. I can't deal with person who never tried to talk to me, because I am not a talkative person myself. The best I can have here, else than the smoking area which is realy comfortable to have some refreshment, is the loose regulations.
It doesn't mean that the regulation is bad, but the regulations themselves allowed us, the member of this office to be able to get some fun together.
I haven't find something bad here, and I hope everything will be just fine until i finish my internship :)

That's Crazy

I just realized that the world is changing so fast. About five or six years ago, before e-bay banned my country, my uncle had made his first online transaction with paypal via e-bay. He bought a electric guitar and a saxophone at that time, so much cheaper than you bought it in my country at the moment. Of course this is a controversy in my family since this family is so old style.

Everybody kept asking how he could trust some stranger to buy something that he had never actually seen. I could understand those questions. It was so common for people who had never actually in touch that deep so that the had no idea about the system.

And then the second was my own sister. She bought a tele-lense for her camera. She really liked photography and she needed a good tele-lens with a good deal of price. She found it in a local forum's trading thread, so she decided to buy it COD. That was the first time in my life I have ever heard about COD.

YEars gone by, I started to be more friendly with my new friend, the internet. I started to learn how it works. I started to learn the system until in a moment, I realize that making business in the internet is so easy to do. I learn trading in the internet and I was quite making money at that moment.

Internet trading is somewhat dangerous, especially because it is like you buying something you never had known before. So that is why i saw someone get a fight because of it. Price in the internet ofcourse so much cheaper than price in the retail because if you sell things in the internet you don't pay for the rent for the shop and another costs too. But internet seller has lower credibility in the eyes of the older generation in my country.

IT is really... really crazy.

Another beginning

I don't know where to start. Actually I made blog and another blogs, and starting all over again without any particular reasons. Am I trying to learn to write in a better English? I am not into that. Actually, I was dreaming of making a blog which is internationally known. People will know my blog, and my life. And I should work hard for that.

I learned how to promote blogs and website. And put adsense to my blog. But I don't know exactly how to make a good post on my blog. In my other blog with other language, I used to talk just about anything. Nothing specialized.

I talk about life and philosophy. Sometimes I just rant about my day. I have never had any idea on how a blog can be qualified as a good blog. I know everything should be learned, but I am not a good learner as well.

I like writing. I like it so much. I like to talk about anything in my life, and I was dreaming that I could one day make an earning from writing. Just, that never happened in my life. The only thing I can do for now, makin money from writing in some PTPost forums. And that's barely a good article. I have to make a good article. I want to be a writer.

This is the beginning.
