edan! edan! edan!

annyeonghashimnikka!

The day is young. Not yet midday. I drank 2 cups of coffee. 2 teaspons moccona, 1 sugar and few drops soy skim milk. Not as bitter as I thought. The time is 10.30 AM. I have exactly 30 hours to finish up assignment on Prius.
*sigh*

I slept thru the whole night last night. no improvement since midnite entry last nite.
Lazy. Yeah, I am.
Panic mode begin.

I'm lost in big terms like brand elements, brand positioning, brand-product matrix.
Ugh, I wish it all just a dream...

jumpin' jumpin'



the man sure can dance, eh?
Wade Robson.
is tha man.

Cant believe I forgot to mention about him. Watched his "Wade Robson Project" on a local TV back in Indo. I think it was aired in a collabo of local TV and MTV channel. Cant remember which.
Anyhoo, for those not in the know, Wade's a choreographer for most of hip-hop celebs. To name a few, britney, JT, JC, Mya were once his hottest clients. But the dude can dance, for real. Aint the sissy kind either. He appeared cameo on You Got Served! the movie. The movie's simple. A dance-offs between 2 competing crews. The winner got exclusive on Lil kim's video. Ok, the movie Honey, her crew dilirik missy elliot? sangat dimaafkan. Tapi ini the Lil Saints' crew dilirik lil kim? kok ya penting gitu loh?! Lil Miss Kim? laku juga nggak!

but watching the movie got me thinking about the street dance-offs that these kids often do. Is it really exist in the states? I know for sure that they have freestyle rap battle jes like eminem did on 8 mile. But i dunno about this kinda street dance-offs. I reckon it really is a good activity for the kids to kill time. At least they wont do anything stupid and actually get active, leaving out the PSPs and Xbox behind.

hm.. Good. Good.

Anyhoo... Sabtu kmaren menjadi hari besar untuk 2 keluarga. Si teman, abangnya dikaruniai anak lelaki. Si penulis populer, istrinya melahirkan anak lelaki juga. Ada apa dengan tanggal 26 Agustus kah? Kebetulan lah hay people I know kebanjiran kebahagiaan. *ups, the penulis, I dont even know him/her! Sok kenal aja!* Belum lama ini ponakanku juga lahir. Perempuan. Keisha namanya. Umph.. memang, keluargaku gen perempuannya kuat. We're the wonderwomen family! lol. jayus ah.

Ada apa ini aku dikelilingi berita tentang kelahiran bayi-bayi 2006? Bayangkan aja, 20 tahun lagi, mereka akan seumur kita sekarang. Perjalanannya masih jauh.. Tapi apa dunia ini siap menerima mereka? 20 tahun mendatang, dunia ini bakalan penuh sesak gak ya? Apa ponakan2 kecilku ini bisa bernafas disela manusia-manusia tua ini? Uff, nikmati aja kebahagiaan ini sekarang. jgn mikir macem2 dulu. Pipi mereka aja masih merah. Welcome to the world, babies. It sucks, but you're gonna love it!

Moving on, You know darwis triadi open photography school in kemang? I so wanna go! I've been dying to learn anything photography since ages ago. one thing that stops me.. the equipments are damm expensive. I always wonder what if im not enjoying photography as much, what will happen to those overpriced cameras and the likes? Gue orangnya bosenan. I like studying things, but not in depth. Just on the surface. Point is, just as long as I know whats this about and how to do 'em, in simple terms. im done.
Thats all I always do.
So, yeah, that stops me to learn photography.
hm, after reading it myself, it sounded like a stupid excuse. bah.

umhh, it's almost midnite. Tomoro's the last day August. I have assignment due on that day. Guess what?
Yeah, havent done it one bit! *grin* Did some point forms but none on writing. It's about the hybrid car audit I mentioned few postings earlier. After having done some research, I want a hybrid car. It sounds cool and light on fuel. Meaning, I dont need to spend 25 bucks for a friggin 20lt! The manufacturers for this type of car is limited here in Aussie tho. Like Bill - my lecturer - said, Aussie's pretty out-of-date on these things. LOL

Cudnt agree more Bill. :p

A last note:
I felt zombie-like today. I'm frazzled but convinced myself all is fine. Hm, none's wrong tho. so why the zombie phase?

lightning strike

it hurts.
it gets me back to reality.
bah! i've been living in mere fantasy for the past few weeks.
pathetic.

all this time. I've been walking in dark alleys.
all this time. I've been looking for uncertainties.
all this time. I cant find my way out of this long winding alleyways.
all this time.

i'm too tired to even make any effort.
or maybe i'm too lazy to even bother?

capek gue, sedih gue.

Uhff.. what just happened?
mood swings happen.

yeah,
it's typical me.

Miami? Aint so hot nomore!

the duo foxx and farrell aint so hot.
An action movie that is without any speed, flirtatious ladies, sexy rhytm, and to-die-for lead actors.
bah.
Miami vice the movie, failed miserably.

Yes, the movie is darker than the original tv series, but an action movie without any action? I reckon pretty lamo, innit?
And whats with colin farrel as sonny crockett? Heck, he aint even close to imitate don johnson! The man in the 80s was damm hot! Colin in the 21st century? Aint.

Google seems not in favor with the movie either. In 0.26 seconds, the few first entries on miami vice were from the original tv series. Not the foxx-farrell big screen movie. Shame.

They tried to make the movie drop it like it's hot with 2 of the hottest hollywood assets, but that doesnt seem to work fine either. Where it went wrong, I wonder?

The occasional occurrence of thunders from up the distance whenever the boys are up for some gun actions is pretty cool i reckon. That adds to the dark element of the movie. It's the only good part of the movie. Linkin park's numb really puts an adrenalin rush at the beginning. But it's all ended when the song ends. bah. Gagal.

Well, all in all. you get the point.

Miami Vice?
Numb.
Dumb.

2 AM

I made myself a cup of coffee just about an hour ago... berharap bisa bantu aku stay awake.
I need to stay awake to finish up the assignment due tomorrow afternoon.
Bah. Haven't write anything on the word document yet. Got the structure right, but not the contents. That's why, I need to stay awake for the next 12 hours.

semua lagu di iTunes that I can think of udah di puter. Muak.
JPop jadi pilihanku di dini hari ini.
Simple reason really, so I won't sing cos I cant sing it!
Lagunya juga gak jedang-jedung layaknya 50 cent.

sbnrnya sih intinya, gw gak bisa konsen. Serius.
Kenapa ya gue?
I only have 12 more hours and all I can think of is to sweep into my bed, curl underneath the warm doona. and sleep.
I've slept more than enuf last night. I drank a cup of coffee. I took a shower at midnite. I'm listening to a loud rock & roll music.
But when's time to study, godaan setan emang susah dikalahin.
Godaan untuk tidur di kasur empukku itu bener2 menggiurkan.
Gue ngantuk. Tapi tugas?
Damn.
Diapun gak ada untuk menghibur gue. mbantu gue biar tetep bangun.
Darn.
What's wrong with me?
Gue bahkan gak takut untuk telat kumpulin tugas besok.
Mengerikan...
Who am I becoming?

Thanks to a friend, I knew Depapepe.
Their songs lift up energi gue yang udah mulai terseok2.
BANZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LoL

bitter

looking out my bedroom window in a midday thursday. It's already 20 past 12.
The weather outside looks bleak. The sun seems to forget to wake up from its deep sleep. "I'm having my day off today" that's probably what it would say.

Rain will be my companion today. Rain and dark clouds.
Yeah. Perfect combination.
It suits me well.

My fingers can't stop shuffling itunes. Searching for right rhythm.
It stops when Boyz II Men singing their color of love.
"I can't think of a sadder song in the whole world" Seth's said.
Although I'm unsure whether the feeling's sad, depressed, or just simply uneasy.
Mixed emotions? Not really.

I wonder if the day has been bright and shining, would today be different?
Would it whisk away this melancholy emotion?
Would I be in a complete zen mode?

The ifs are always in my thoughts.
Me and the rest of the world.
How would I know the universe when my vision's limited to only what the eyes can see?
It's so unfair.
... to think the unreachable.
Or to even hope for craze fixation.
So I'd plea for temporary insanity.





oh shut up!
"TURN THE MUSIC OFF ITS DEPRESSING ME"

hm

I shud put an end to this unhealthy obsession.
Must.

Immediately.


dammit. inget umurrrrrr!!!
edan.

saranghaeyo sarangee

mati gila gue!!
uanying.
ludacris, I tell ya.

Can I do it?

if you push urself to the limit. how'll you know you'd make it?
Standing out and taking chances, thinking of explosive results only to satisfy the thirst to be different.
Risks and actions would be the hurdles.
But the question is one, Can I do it?

So, How have you been?

can't even remember what my last posting was about. haha
been too caught up with my sights and not thoughts.

addicted to K-drama, My Girl.
Intoxicated with LDW's cheeky smiles. LOL.
Dee, am at it again! haha. There wont be an end to this kinda thing, eh? *Grin*

Working few more shifts. Getting to know more names and tasks.
Assignments are piling up, with no intention to begin research.
procrastinating's on the roll baby!

Aments to do this coming week,
Brand audit for Toyota Prius. It's a hybrid car, for those not in the know. hehe. blagu. padahal jg baru aja research eeee! ;)
- Wanna know where I get the idea to do a research on hybrid car?
Thanks to MTV and southpark. LOL. First time I heard of hybrid car was from one of southpark episode, and the latest i heard of it was just a week ago on MTV movie award. So basically, thank you jessica alba, matt stone and trey parker for giving me the idea. blahaha corny as!

Mission statements review.. thinking about the topic.
Might do Mp3 players manufacturers. Eg, Ipod, Iriver, and the others.
Wudnt be easy, I reckon.
We'll jes see how it goes.

So there. Thats my task for this next 2 weeks.
Given the addiction I have, it wudnt be too easy to finish 'em on time.
Damn you Azntv!


I'm addicted to this man.











Shush. Dont laugh.

Remember people, ADDICTION KILLS!
So true. Can't get things done, late for everything. Due to excessive consumption to live streaming Drama series. BAH

Anyway, I wrote this a few days back. When thinking about the topic for my brand audit assignment and coincidently reading an article about the blonde-chica none other than Ms. Paris Hilton.

Mind you, my thoughts were tangled between branding theories and hollywood gossip. LOL

"Paris Hilton declared herself as being the shy girl. I'd say, BULLSHIT! But ambitious, most definitely! Hence, the idea of celebrity equals to being a brand is then occured in mind. The on-camera personality would perhaps represents a brand identity. With consideration of 'whats selling given the "packaging"?'
Media entertainment is what audience constantly keen to see/know. Bad publicity, but to what extend, will lead to instant limelights?
Fresh celebrity, How to speed the fansite?
New product, how to increase market share?

but this idiotic concept perhaps wudnt apply appropriately for idealistic artists(?)
Not sure. but hey, it's an idiotic theory. LOL" -- Bingung? I do now. HAHA



PS: Selamat Ulang Tahun Indonesiaku.

lose the jargon

"If your vocabulary is limited, so is your range of thought"

well put. that what frustrates me the whole lot.
i reckon, a wordsmith could easily escape from his/her troubles.
one example, michael the BB 2006 ex-housemate. He knows his ability to fool people by embracing his talent with words.
i envy him for that.

and since my vocab is extremely limited, so is my range of thought.
i.e. how can you speak out your mind when you don't know the words to say them?

see?

hooters air

Seharian gue online nyari tugas. read articles anything about branding. You know what I came across while reading articles from businessweek? At first, it's just a typical article about brand extensions, that is, brands that stretch its' product into others outside their initial business. To name a few, virgin has made a large sum of extensions from its' original recording company, virginrecords into an airline business, finance/insurance firm, mobile phone industry, and even had their own lingerie and jeans clothing line. Came to no shock, the latter two industries didnt have any effect to the company's profitability. Hence, out they go.

Anyhooooo.. the interesting part is that businessweek has their own compilation of the most odd brand extensions occuring in 2006. The most hillarious is the hooters air -the brand extension of a restaurant chain HOOTERS.

For those not in the know, Here's hooters. :D

Hooters air will be launched in spring 2006 in the US. Is it already spring in the US? if so, then the business is up and running.
I reckon it's much a huge stretch for hooters to launch a hooters air, dont u think? ;)
I wonder how they'll run the airline industry ????
The restaurant's famous for its' hooters girls... would that be the same case for the hooters air's flight attendant? hooo... interesting. :p

Here's the link for some brand extensions 2006 that might come too far.. CLICK HERE


What you reckon? Wanna fly with HOOTERS AIR?

hm, don't get so judgemental first, prolly they might give good service? I just realised, prolly they stretch their business into airline cos it serves similar purpose, customer service industry.
Different is, this one's up in the air.

Midnite refreshment

honestly, i may bore you to death.
got nutin to write about. it's over midnite, I'm bored as usual, just doing some research and browsing for job vacancies, chatting with a friend, and on a constant mood for youtube binge.

Watched MTV Movie Awards 2006 earlier in the evening.
IT. IS. SUCK. BIG. TIME. ha. ha.
Although, trying not to be a hypocrite here, there were times when I had my MTV era. The times when I thought it'd be so damn bloody cool to actually livin it up back at the MTV headquarter. Be one with the stars and all the glam life. Meet all the hollywood number ones and join the line up of A-list stars. The presentations of everything MTV is soooo out there and... cool.
yeah... i was fooled.

hmph dont care now.

you know what, there's a bomb attack at UK airport. Worldwide nations have been in constant panic ever since. Securities can never be more tight in every part of the globe. Hence, as tiny as mobile phones are not allowed to be brought into the cabin. This Is What Happens If You're Trying to Blow Up the Planes, People.
DAMN YOU STUPID BOMBERS!

FYI, i hate using the word terrorists. I dont wanna get caught up to the US' (or more precise, Bush's) mind frame. By refusing to fully acquaintant with the word, not necessarily I chose to ignore it completely. If you get what i mean lah. pusing sayah udah malem ginih.

oh another update, my niece was born few days ago. her name's keisha. nice name huh.

what am i doing this middle of the night...
hmm....
looking for jobs. found one. but dunno how to change my resume to fit into the qualifications. Never good at the two-minute commercial thing, you know. Went to a counselor, she said the work i've done is fine. but again, I don't trust those people. They don't really sincere in the way they giving out advice. I'm not fully convinced that what I did is already good enough.

Maybe it's just me.

I want boots. Not uggs. Just leather flat pointy boots, black.
An Aussie mentioned how UGG boots are bogans' boots. Bah. ILFIL.
same as saying i'm NDESO?
Uh, damn you Hollywood for making them THE MUST HAVE BOOTS OF THE YEAR!

Ah, bosan saya.

btw, knp klo gue nulis slalu lompat kesana kemari ya? Never had any one meaningful point.
hmpff.. biarin lah.

5 minute pitch

in every aspect of our ordinary lives, we are promoting ourselves to others. seeking assurance about our intellegence, beauty, personality, etc. as if this life is filled with the number ONEs. competing who will come first became the most important thing. it's most likely resemblance as an acceptance. acceptance in our everyday ordinary lives. pathetic? not really. deep inside, we've all been there. prior being accepted.. some people give all their effort for enormous amount of self-promotion. how many times a day people give their two-minute commercial about themselves, about YOU. in businesses, people do whatever it takes to built up image, to high up the market, expand the business, and so on. Sometimes, the better person comes up with a 5 minute pitch. Give it ago, all you have in you. Although what you're selling isn't about YOU personally, but honestly, the other person would prolly make decision based on what they thought about YOU. Aside from the business point of view, in a simple gathering, say group discussion, the more stand out you are, the more people pay attention to you. implicitly, you've given yourselves the 5 minute pitch, a two-minute commercial.

hff.. ramblings. as always.
i think i've just missed another opportunity, which was unnoticable until it ended. mbego.

what the F?

Launchcast really good at setting up the mood.
Out of nowhere I chose soft pop and all that streaming are love songs.
Phil collins had his solo, then came out diana ross with her endless love.
and now sting's desert rose.
the dude's there and the teasing begun?
what the F? he challenged and I step back a little bit.
what's going on here? I'm actually having fun.
insane.

still thinking

when you keep on thinking only to find an endless solution. it'll drive you mad.
you just can't let go and keep on creating scenarios after scenarios on what went wrong, what could've and shud've happened, and why did it happened?!
your mind keep on telling you which scenario fits best and explain the major cause of what had happened.

It's a denial phase.

you wont get over it. something get your mind off it for a while... but it never really went away. you wud think positive thoughts would remedy what already happened. Well, honestly, they do built up some motivation and fair bit strength to move on.. but not entirely.

you get paranoid.

a friend said to me it's a major thing to get out of your comfort zone. I was wondering whether stepping out of my comfort zone only ends up getting what I've been afraid of these years? Although I know deep inside that it aint the whole truth. So, the answer to that would be no, but yes it feels as if overcoming your fear don't really give you anything in return, in fast motion.

been there done that.
another friend said that to me. At some point, a person at any age would experience the same feeling. the question of walking out of your comfort zone, that is.

but initially, this ain't only about that.
it's all about me cant keep my mind off from questions and explanations. It's a habit.
or is it the insecurity thing that takes over?

I'm not sure.

chapter ketiga

masa2 skolah udah beres.
masa2 kuliah udah melewati batas.
masuk ke chapter ketiga di stiap hidup manusia.
dari being just a child, teenager, adolescent, dan (yang akan dimulai) maturity.
there will be massive heartbreaks in every aspect of life.
some friends of mine had them when they began their own journey.
i guess, i'm just starting.
it hurts G-dammit!
i guess, i'm a late bloomer in this kinda thing.
i'm not mature enough to accept the reality, although my head still telling me it aint the truth.
Ha! pure denial.
We all going on that direction whether we want it or not. Sort of like, a must to do.
i'm just warming up myself to get more prepared for the next rejections or acceptance.
man, it ain't easy. never is, isnt it?
chapter ketiga mungkin yg paling susah dijalanin kalo guenya sendiri gak tahan mental. karena mungkin gue yang jalanin ini sndiri. No mum and dad holding my hands to get into the room like the first day in kindergarten.

Bah! no wonder i see myself in Toye's quote "La réalité est pour ceux qui n'ont pas d'imagination"

kalo gini, kapan gue dewasanyaaaaaaaaaaaaa?!?!?!?!

LIFE SUCKS!!!!!

it's quite early in the morning and i'm in a total bad mood!!!!
F-ing hate it!!
