I-pple Madness Syndrome

Since Steve Jobs past away, he dramatically risen my desire to have an iPhone! Geez. Apple's products are awesome! Here are some videos I've watched which attracted me to save more money to buy one iPhone (hopefully) : |

Honestly, these videos make me wanna try to take a lesson on making electronic devices! I'm APPLE-DICTED!

Act loud, speak after

Satu yang gw pelajari setelah jadi ketua umum OSIS EKLESIA 2011/2012. Ada keuntungan yang diperoleh dari speak first yaitu mendapat kepercayaan. Masalahnya the louder we speak, the bigger responsibility we get. Dan itulah yang gw rasakan sekarang yaitu pemikiran kalau yang gw lakukan ägak"salah (di bagian terlalu menggebu-gebunya). Saat kampanye jujur gw terlalu menggebu-gebu sampai gw bingung bicara apa.

Kelemahan itu yang gw pelajari terus menerus dan setelah gw selidiki banyak kelemahan yang harus gw perbaiki sebagai leader:
  1. Menggampangkan hal-hal tertentu; tidak boleh berkata gampang/mudah karena membuat anggota kita akan "malas"bekerja dan pekerjaan itu bakal dilimpahkan ke kita semua kalo gitu.. Kan gampang! Hehehe..
  2. Lebih mudah berbicara; gw adalah tipikal orang yang menggebu-gebu kalau bicara dan itu jadi senjata makan tuan buat diri sendiri. Gimana caranya kita membuktikan hal yang kita pikirkan dan belum terjadi. Disitu tantangannya! Gw sangat yakin, ga ada yang mustahil dalam Tuhan dan gw percaya sampai sekarang, Sayangnya, gw baru sadar harusnya iman itu cukup disimpan dalam hati dan diomong keorang-orang tertentu. Bukan buat digembar-gembor ke semua orang. Nasi sudah jai bubur ya apa boleh buat, tinggal pembuktiannya : |
  3. Cara dan apa yang diomong; seorang leader dilihat dari apa yang diomongnya jadi mulai sekarang gw belajar to listen more and talk less but effective. Jadi bicara sedikit tapi menjadi solusi. Keren tuh kalau bisa! Hehe..
  4. Memilih teman bergaul; bukan berarti pilih-pilih teman, tapi punya tempat yang konsisten buat berteman. Pergaulan sebagai pemimpin haruslah luas. Tetapi teman-teman terbaik kita ga perlu dilibatkan, ga perlu orang-orang tahu banyak soal hubungan kita dan mereka. Jaga lah pergaulan. Selain itu bergaul juga dengan grup yang reputasi cukup baik untuk menjaga nama baik. Tapi tidak berarti grup selain itu dibengkalaikan. Susah dijelaskan tapi begitulahhh...
  5. Menjaga hati; pemimpin harus sejarang mungkin galau! Kalau pemimpin galau, bawahannya dan rekan sekerja bisa-bisa drop. Harus pemimpin yang bisa menyemangati dan mengangkat semua satu persatu.
  6. Komunikasi dan koordinasi; sebelum bertindak, konsultasi sama yang ahli dan punya banyak koneksi. Contohnya mantan pemimpin, gembala, guru, sahabat, teman biasa yang paham di bidang tertentu. Agar kita tidak salah arah awalnya dan tidak ada kerugian di acara yang kita buat.. Terlebih semua harus dibicarakan kepada TIM.
  7. Berdoa senantiasa; ini yang ga kalah penting. Soalnya, kadang-kadang terlalu banyak berdoa itu ga baik, ga berdoa bisa celaka. Jadi, pakailah otak, hati, dan iman itu selaras dan seimbang lah. Jangan hanya doa saja atau otak saja atau hati saja. Bisa-bisa terjatuh.. Minta hikmat sama Tuhan deh. Serahkan semua kekhawatiran kita : )
Jadi kesimpulannya gw harus ACT buat kedepannya. Sudah cukup SPEAK nya ; p
Itu saja sih yang hari ini gw dapetin. Semoga bermanfaat!

Agnes Monica for A Real Dream

Baru gw mulai belajar kimia buat besok sesudah post yang terahir untuk vote teman gw lomba ke Cina membawa nama Indonesia.. Muncul Agnes Monica di salah satu TV swasta nasional and it was something for me! Like a strengthening words she says on that program!

What really into me was the words she said. If I don't mistaken she said, "Thanks to Lord Jesus Christ, my Best Friend ever, and my Best Manager (...)" -> she said it in Bahasa.

And I was like.. "Have I thanked God tonight? Or involve Him in everything I do?"

I listened to the TV and left my beloved chemistry book on my bed. Agnes Monica has implanted me a kind of power I have never learned before. The power of dreaming!

"Dream, Believe, and Make it Happen"
                                                                       -Agnes Monica-


I vote her because of her inspiring life which involve Jesus Christ in everything she does!

Have you give your time for her? She brings the name of Indonesia to the world! It is not about religion only but nationalism too! What I write here is my personal reason but the external reason is SHE IS AN INDONESIAN TOO! Like me! As the same Indonesian, she is my family too. So vote her!

N.B.
Kalau kak Agnes baca ini aku berterimakasih dia sudah jadi perpanjangan tangan Tuhan yang menguatkan semangat ku dan mendekatkan ku kembali dengan-Nya. I wish you will give a comment on this posting if you read this kak! JBU always <3 http://www.agnesmonicaofficial.com/agnezious/3/agnezays/121/father-can-you-hear-me-now-/

Red and Green

My OSIS Campaign is over. I have told my best, mostly I talked what my heart desires. How could a school can save a life and more? How could a school build a healthy community which support not only the family members but also the society needs? How a school could save the Earth starts from its surroundings? How could a school complete each other potential and weakness? How could a school make an organization that could give 900 students' and tens of teachers' some opportunities to train their ability? This is honestly what I see for SMAK 1 BPK PENABUR Bandung for the next years and after, until God choose a youth to supervise His new vision for my beloved school, ours.

Many people from grade X, XI, and XII asked me about what I'm doing. It seems like.... What I see, I think, and I miss are nearly impossible! But to me, nothing is impossible! When a program isn't accomplished, it is only being postponed. What we have started NEVER be nothing, it starts something BIG in the future. We never failed, but what we expect to happen NOW never always really happened. There is always a time to change and to start a change. "To start a change" is what I am doing NOW! 

These days I have been thinking about saving a life, saving a generation, saving a family:

Red for blood
BLOOD FOR LIFE

Each countries needs at least 2% blood stock from a country population.
In Indonesia: AB -> 7%
                     A -> 15%
                     O -> the rest of the percentage
 *Other special needs blood excluded <- THIS ONE IS PRECIOUS

What are the advantages of doing a blood donation?
Make your body fresh which means your brain functions be better because you will produce new blood.
You could save a life you don't know from any races. It could be a baby or sick people.
You could save your close relatives' life.
You are doing something good. To get used to helping people sincerely.
Humbling your self down, shaping your character.
And many more will you feel after you donate your blood.

Why should we donate our blood?
Because I want to save a life!
*How if the one who needs blood is you? Or may be your best friends or families?*

If you don't want to donate blood, you may donate your money! For the leak of facilities : )
THIS IS A HEART WORK

PMI Bandung - Jalan Aceh NO. 79, Bandung

Green for nature
A tree for a single breathe and pollutions for destruction

40 years later it is possible that we will buy oxygen besides foods! Imagine if oxygen is no longer free?
20 years later it is possible that we won't feel comfortable if we don't use AC due to the high temperature. 
10 years later it is possible that we won't see the same beaches we see today.
Every years later it is possible for a species to extinct and our children mayn't see them alive.
Other problems are polluted waters and our land filled in with trashes.
The UV light may get through our atmosphere someday. Yes, someday if we don't ACT!

We don't want such a thing happened. We need a generation who think about these problems and do something to overcome them! IT IS US!

What could we do?
Don't litter any trash if there is no trash bag or another trash container
Save water and use it wisely
Save ENERGY not only electricity
Tell your close friends and relatives about the importance of a Life Green
Read articles about our nature and its condition regularly
Avoid using much paper; Use both sides of the paper
Save files in electronic devices such as cellphones and laptop
Recycle reduce reuse recover
And many other actions we can do...

Why I write about going green again and again? Yet, @ twitter I tweet about 'em too?

How thousands of international youths joined in TUNZA to recover EARTH

A 12-year-old boy, my friend, and me in TUNZA
THESE ARE THE REASONS -> TUNZA INTERNATIONAL 2011; GREEN PEACE INDONESIA; WWF; Indonesia Nowadays

I can't explain it more because it is something you must do and understand why. This post is only words. The action is ours. The action makes us understand the words. May God bless human beings and mother nature.
