Lunar New Year

Sunday, February 18th, 2007

Katanya..
I was born exactly on the day when chinese people were celebrating new year, while my 1st biggest sister was born 14 days after chinese new year (15th day of new year, also known as cap-go-me). So, based on the chinese calendar, today is also my birthday.

Katanya..
Many people said, kids who were born on the day of new year will be bothersome for family. Some said it’s unlucky, but some also said it will bring a good luck for the kid. Which one is correct? I dunno… I feel neither lucky nor unlucky. Bothersome for family? I dunno… it might be.. but hope not. ^^

Hmm… that’s all… chinese new year reminds me the old days. When I was still kid, when my grandparents were still living in Kapuas before a big fire burnt almost half of Kapuas, on the day of chinese new year, our families and relatives were going there and gathering as a big families.

During this lunar new year, I have to go to work anyway. Got deadline at work.. >_<

Well, everybody.. everyone.. mina-san… , no matter celebrating or not, wish you all have a prosperous year.. gain more happiness, health, wealth, and love.. gong xi fat choi… ^o^ and for those who have married.. don’t forget the red envelope… hohoho… ^^’

Diary of January.. February..

Tuesday, February 6th, 2007

Tahun ini bener2 diawali oleh berbagai musibah. Musibah pesawat ilang.. kapal tenggelam.. sampe banjir di Jkt..

End of year, husband of my mom’s sister died because of sudden heart attack.

Beginning of January, My Dad got sick (until now), and probably will need surgery by next month..

In the 3rd week of January, my b’day, nothing special.. just me getting older but still very immature. I still remember the woman near my neighborhood, when invited me to join MLM said, no girls will like me if I’m like now. Good advice, but it doesn’t have any relation with MLM idea.

End of January, when Faisal (my friend at work) and I went to sgpore, there’s a ticket problem at the airport.

Beginning of February, Flood in Jkt.. at that time, I’ve just returned to Jkt at night. On my way to go home (to kost2an), I was trapped near ITC Roxy with flood almost my thigh high, while I was carrying backpack containing laptop and travel bag containing clothes and a very thick document for my work.. and it was raining..

And the latest, Father(in law) of Budi and Anny died.. and Nukman has just died because of accident.. Gone to soon…

However.. thank God I’m still alive, and currently My Dad’s condition is quite good..
Maybe these are also reminder to appreciate God more, with what we currently have.

Hope next month everything will be better.
