The last couple of weeks in case you happened to read or hear from the news, the world is now facing a global pandemic of swine flu. It is shocking and terrifying because until now there is no cure to this disease just yet. The flu is known to be originated from Mexico, but in my opinion the validity of this fact has not been confirmed as the disease is spreading too fast in reality. Australia is also facing the reality that large numbers of people who reside here have been infected with this disease. How is it growing? Is it true that now Australia is dangerous country to visit? or this is just a rumour? I’m no expert at describing how the situation is really happening here but I’ll try to share what I’ve read and heard from our local news, in case that there is a mistake please do correct it by posting your comment.

Singapore is the first country to give a travel warning to its citizen for coming to Australia. This fact states that it is already not safe to travel to Australia. I don’t what really happens in another state of Australia, but in Victoria the case is growing quiet fastly. Another states such as New South Wales (NSW), Brisbane, etc once gave a warning not to travel to any part of Victoria. At this point, I don’t have any idea whether it is really safe to travel to Victoria, however if you decide to travel to Australia you just need to believe nothing bad is going to happen; you don’t have to be panicking. I can’t deny the fact that thousands of people are now infected and several deaths caused by this swine flu have been confirmed. In my opinion, you don’t to worry and you can still enjoy your winter holiday here in Victoria.

You guys, probably wondering what on earth I am daring to say this. Well, again I am no expert to any of this medical thing; one thing for sure that I know ’swine flu’ is just another type of flu just like ‘bird flu’ (well yeah, logically speaking the name says what the disease is or otherwise the name wouldn’t be flu). I know that you guys roughly know what to do in order not to get caught in flu.

Stay healthy all the time!

Some of us are in holiday or semester break period, the temptation not to sleep early is very strong coz usually we got no time to do activity beyond the normal sleeping time, some of us have lecture/school in the morning or afternoon; but now we do have more time. Sleeping “in the morning” could affect our immunity system to flu, we are more susceptible to flu that way. To prevent such thing to happen, drinking Vitamin C beverages surely help (I am no expert but experience does not lie). Sleep earlier whenever possible. To those in winter season, check your daily outfit; I don’t think tripel-ing your clothes at this period would do you any harm rather than getting yourself cold.

The point is in my opinion is safe to travel to Australia regarding the fact as I have mentioned above (thousands are infected and couples death are confirmed). You have to stay alert and stay healthly all the time! You know what to do, the same thing here. People don’t need to worry; the world is suffering and better yet medical scientists are working to find “a perfect cure” to this disease and it’s about time before they find it out.

p.s: in case you want to confirm what I’ve written please do post a comment and I’d gladly make necessary changes

Happy Holiday and Cheerz from Melbourne,,,

This week was a very hectic week, I got three (3) assignment submissions and 1 small submissions. I didn’t have enough sleep for four days in a row and what I did was just keep doing on my assignment and got them done before the due date. But, this weekend is almost free in time I got two submissions coming up 21th October and 4th November; I still got sometime during the SWOT-VAC to finish them up. But, I am not going to talk about University stuff this entry, despite I just wanna write a little overview about My Razer. I just bought Razer Protone M100 and M250, both earphone and headphone.

I ordered my Razer just 2 weeks ago, that time American Dollar was quiet high I didn’t realize until I was about to pay them through PayPal (FYI, this is the first time I used PayPal, lolz). Everything basically wen smooth without any trouble till I got my payment process cleared and my track number on FedEx. Last Thursday I tracked them down and it is estimated to arrive by the end of Friday which was sound perfect to me. But, then I tracked it down again during the break and found out that it has arrived and received by the Front Desk. Friday morning, I headed to Front Desk straight away and ask for my delivery package. The whole Friday I didn’t got a single chance to open my package because of the submissions I need to finish. But then 20 minutes just after Friday, I got my chance to unpack my delivery.

Talking about the quality, it is just slightly above the average but then Razer for is my lifestyle, it is my preferences to choose Razer for my gaming stuffs. It’s like why I choose Reebok over Nike? It is just my preferences. I included some of the pictures anyway so whoever read my blog has an idea what the hell I wrote

So, what’s your lifestyle?

Setelah blajar di RMIT and BiNus University, I found out both University has different style in Learning process. Banyak perbedaan yg gw temuin di RMIT setelah gw blajar selama 2 taon di BiNus. Di entry kali ini, part 1 dari BiNus vs RMIT gw bakal sedikid membahas perbedaan di assignment. Di Next entry gw bakal bahas perbedaan di lecture and tutorial experience. So, let’s start.

RMIT. Di RMIT untuk beberapa subject tertentu (well, most of them; ok, some of them), assignment-nya dipukul rata buad semua murid, which means there is only one single problem to be solved. Contoh: semester lalu gw ambil pelajaran Software Architecture and Development (which obviously is, Programming 3 or P3). P3 basically advanced level programming of Java. But, in my opinion it is not (menurut gw ngak segh =p). Nah di P3 subject di assignment 1 kita dikasi one single assignment which was disuruh bikin Master Mind Game (kalo pernagh maen game di Handphone Siemens SL45, ada game ini) tp disuruh implementasi pake Socket. Ok, well….obviously, at the very beginning the course coordinator has specifically specified the marking criteria. For Example: The Game should support multiplayer up to 6 player or etc.

Topik entry kali ini maw bahas dikid tengah fav quotes. Quote itu apa segh? definition yg benernya segh gw ngak begitu taw, tp kalo gw disuruh artiin "apa segh itu Quote(s)?" mungkin gw bakal jawab gini, Quotes itu kaya potongan kata2 yg biasanya didaped dari orang ato artikel ato bisa juga dari film ato darimana aja segh basically. Tp ini bukan cuma potongan kata2, Quotes menurut gw pribadi punya arti sendiri and arti dari potongan kata2 itu yg menjadikan itu semua Quotes. So, the conclusion is Quotes have meaning and they are not simply meaningless chunk of words.

In life, pastinya kita punya Quotes favorite kita sendiri. Biasanya quotes is one of our motivators. Whenever we are feeling down, happy, or even we are in trouble; we sometimes find ourself to look at our favorite quotes as the motivator. Well, if you don’t at least I do.

Some of my favorite quotes are:
"Life will not wait for me. I should go and grab it" – Ann & Diane (The Amazing Team from Malaysia – TARA 2

"when someone doesn’t fall as smart as you are, that doesn’t mean they are as pathetic as you are" – Peter Suryaatmaja

recently I found new quotes especially during the Olympic Beijing 2008:
"We just knew that if we keep on pushing and driving, we can do something more….as you can see there are a lot of love here" (AUS – men’s double sculls GOLD MEDALIST)

"Even superstar like Michael Phelps finds it difficult out there" – Libby Trickett (AUS woman swimmer)

These are some my favorite quotes. For some more quotes you can find it on my facebook: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=524639501

So, what are you favorite quotes that inspire you the most? Share them here

A Friend
You are there for me
there is time
when i am so happy that

There is time

disgusting that i really wish
not to be born here
but since i found you
life is just so
unbelievable
time of miracle and magic
just keep on visiting my life
i realize
it is you my friend who
creates such a big difference
even though things never turn out to be
the one that i wish the most in my life
it is you again my friend
who makes my wish come true

for the friendship we’ve been through on and on
you’ve shown me that manyy things do exist
in the world
should i say thank you
wish you all the best

it is such a blessing
to have a friend like you
who are always there
when i do need you
sure a friend like you is hard to find and
you are my friend now and forever
