Jaman Edhan 2.0

Jaman edhan!

Mungkin orang tua, nenek, kakek atau keluarga dari generasi baby boomers or even older akan berkata demikian apabila melihat perkembangan sekarang.

Kalo dulu, komunikasi pake surat atau telegram, telepon yang masih belum terlalu merakyat, lalu dilanjutkan dengan adanya pager (jadi ingat lagunya Sweet Martabak "ti di tit, pagerku berbunyi"), dan kemudian muncullah HP yang ukurannya saking gedhenya bisa buat nimpuk maling dan bikin KO, dan lama kelamaan ukurannya makin mengecil.

During Handphone time, computer juga sedikit demi sedikit mulai popular. Awalnya popular yang either backgroundnya hitam, hijau atau biru, dengan ukurang CPU and monitor yang guueeedheee; sampe akhirnya di akhir taun 90 an ukuran komputer mulai mengecil dan datanglah laptop.

Dan to cut long story short, lihat sekarang. Facebook, Twitter, Digg, Wikipedia, Mixx, Last.fm, Flickr, Youtube, Plurk, and many other things! Kalo kalian pernah denger istilah Web 2.0, nah ini dia situs-situs yang menggunakan fasilitas Web 2.0. Web 2.0 ini pokoknya enable interactivity atau present user-generated content. Tanya Uncle Google atau Aunty Wiki deh kalo pengen tau lagi!

In short, Amazing! Awesome!

Jujur, Oma takut sekaligus excited, menanti dan melihat apa yang akan terjadi 3-5 taun ke depan. Dan bener-bener penasaran membayangkan hal baru apalagi yang akan muncul 10-20 tahun ke depan.

Lately, Oma ngeliat orang bisa general check-up dengan mudah sekali. Cukup memasukkan air liur ke dalam sebuah ahal seperti flash disc dan kemudian alat itu akan tersambung ke sistem dan data base yang akan menganalisa sendiri siapa kita dan bagaimana keadaan kita.

Gila ya?!

So, looking forward to the next thing!

Oh ya, Oma nemu video ini dari situs Socialmenia.

What would you do if you could live another life

What would you do if you could live another life just for one day? This line is quoted from "Last Chance Harvey" . I have watched this film twice and still feel so touched everytime I watch it. Kate Walker, the main character in this film, uttered this question to Harvey Shine. In this story, both of them lived a life that is not very happy-chappy. Kate lived in a pathetic, boring life; Harvey in a screwed one. When Kate asked this question, both of them seem to ponder: what if I could live a different life, just for one day, just to try out. This question makes me ponder, too: what would I do if I was given a chance to live any kind of life I want, just for one day? Where would I be? What would I do? Who would I be? Lately I have been thinking about the life I am living right now. Everything is so well-planned. I graduated from high school, went abroad to study, came back home to work, went abroad again to do my master, working in a reasonably good organisation, and going ho...

The unexpected wedding

Almost every girl has ever dreamt of her wedding day – what she would wear, who would come, who the prince charming is. I would say, every girl must have a certain expectation and standard when it comes to a wedding: it could be grand, small celebration, family only, destination wedding – you name it. My dream wedding happens to me a small, close friends and family only wedding. If you grew up in the 90s, you would know a boy band called 98 degree. They had a song titled ‘I do’. If you search on YouTube, you will find the video clip, which shows a beautiful wedding ceremony. That’s my dream wedding! My whole life, I was picturing that. Twelve years ago, I started dating this guy, who is now my husband. His family background is very different than mine. Among other things – which we thankfully have tolerated and worked on – the way to throw a wedding party is totally different. His dream wedding party is ‘tell the world I am getting married’-kind of party. Yes, he wanted grand...

Cold Feet

One of my closest friends is getting married tomorrow another one in May another one in November. and an ex-classmate is also getting married in April/May. and, I dreamed about getting married last night. I remember some months ago I was so enthusiastic with the idea of getting married. Although I knew that our relationship was not yet ready for that stage, I was so pushy to Stefy. I had asked him when exactly we would get married. Ah well, it was all the flashy things that I longed for. Right now, what I want is to avoid it! I am just not brave enough to throw myself into this new status. Don't get me wrong, I am probably just like any other girls out there who like the beautiful wedding gown, like to be made up, like to be the queen of the night. But, have you ever considered what would happen after you wave off the guests and head to your own home, starting your new chapter of life? or what would happen after the happy chappy honeymoon? Would we then live...
