Best Software Project @ 2008 ITEE Innovation Expo

Hampir satu tahun ini, Mika 'berkelut' dengan Honours project yang judulnya: "Smart House Design to Support Aging in Place". Project ini aimed untuk menciptakan assisted-living device untuk elderly people (65 tahun ke atas) sebagai bagian dari smart house design supaya orang tuanya ga cepet-cepet pindah ke retirement house atau panti jompo.

Tanggal 16 Oktober kemaren, project Honours Mika di-display ke public di 2008 ITEE Innovation Expo. Selain di-display untuk public, ini sebenernya juga salah satu Oral Presentation assessment dari program Honours Mika. Jadi ada salah satu examiner yang dateng untuk tanya-tanya tentang apa aja mengenai project Mika. All went well! Yay!

To My Dearest Sister

Dek,

aku di-alert temenku tentang postingan di blog kamu yang isinya menurutku "just a piece of crap".

Ga usah khawatir atau resah,
dan ga usah diharaukan.

Kamu tahu WHO YOU REALLY ARE,
aku, saudara, teman2, dan orang yang pernah kenal kamu tahu WHO YOU REALLY ARE as well.
Dan I have to let you know tulisan KAYAK GITU sama sekali ga akan mempengaruhi image kamu di hadapanku, saudara2 kamu, temen2 kamu, dan orang-orang yang pernah kenal kamu. And I shall let you know all of us are with you, SUPPORTING YOU. Buktinya: temenku is the one yang ngasi tau aku tentang postingan di blog kamu itu dan ngasi tau aku klo kamu difitnah. See? So, just take it easy. Everybody IS WITH YOU.

Anggep aja ini "tambahan pahala" buat bulan Ramadhan. Asik kan?

Aku malah ngerasa kasian Dek sama yang posting.

Udah postingan-nya ngawur, trus,
kayaknya tu orang kurang perhatian ya... Jadi caper (cari-cari perhatian) gitu. Cara ngedapetin perhatiannya juga VERY SAD. Sampe CURI ACCOUNT kamu coba. Nulisnya seenak udelnya aja sampe lupa NGACA SAMA DIRI SENDIRI.

Kalau dia Muslim, sayang banget Ramadhan taun ini dipake buat fitnah2 orang. Mendingan buat nulis hal yang lain yang lebih bermanfaat & lebih pantas. Apa mungkin dia udah biasa ya fitnah2in orang tiap tahun? Apa mungkin dia specialist fitnah bulan Ramadhan, gantiin shift Syaitan yang menurut kitab umat Muslim diudah dibelenggu waktu bulan Ramadhan? Just wondering... Wallahualam bishawab.


Miss you so much Sis. Take care,

Anting di Telinga Cowok

Ada yang tau ga sih apa artinya klo cowok make anting di sebelah kiri?
Kayaknya gw pernah denger klo make di salah satu sisi, itu artinya gay. Cuma yang sebelah mana yaaa??? Kiri atau kanan? Atau dua-dua-nya?

Temen Spore gw dan supervisor skripsi gw make anting, dua-duanya sebelah kiri, dan mereka kayaknya "cowok normal". Jadi kesimpulan sementara gw, klo anting di kiri, berarti aman.

Ada yang tau artinya kalau yang make sebelah kanan atau dua-dua-nya artinya apa?

SIM Card Vodafone hilang, langsung diganti free!

Waktu gw lunch sama Sally-chu & Tyas di "Himawari" City of Brisbane, gw baru nyadar kalo SIM Card nomer Aussie gw ilang. Panik deh, abis tu nomer 'cantik banget' dan udah 'terkenal'. He He He

Trus gw datengin counter Vodafone 2 hari setelah ilang buat lapor kalo SIM Card gw ilang dan nanya mungkin ga ya nomer yang lama bisa di-keep.
Eh, mbak2nya jawab: "Yes, you can!".
Mbaknya langsung entry nomer gw yang ilang di database Vodafone dan muncul personal info gw which states klo nomer itu punya gw. Trus gw tinggal diminta buat provide ID e.g. student card or driver licence, sebagai bukti klo gw emang yang punya nomer, nomer yang lama langsung balik deh.
WOW, cepet amat mbak! Amat aja ga cepet-cepet. Less than 5 mins. No fees at all lageh.


2 thoughts:

1. Kayaknya klo gw ngilangin SIM Card HP Indo gw, trus minta SIM Cardnya lagi, bayar deh... Trus bakalan lama prosesnya.. more than 2 weeks mungkin, hmmmm :(
2. Di Aussie, kalo mau beli nomer, entah prepaid ato engga, personal info pasti diminta sama petugasnya. Menurut gw cara kayak gini bagus juga klo diterapin di Indo. Minimal bisa ngurangin kejahatan yang dilakukan via HandPhone

Salam hangat dari Brisbane,
Mika

Muhammad Ali VS Milo Ventimiglia

Wooohooo!

Finally, Federer got beaten in Australian Open 2008.
To be honest, I am already bored with Federer. Seems like nobody in this world can't beat him.
I still keep my small regret feeling why I came to Melbourne last year to watch Australian Open 2007 Men's Final,
just to watch Fernando Gonzales being "massacred" by Federer.

The reason why Federer's opponents always loose I think it is because they already afraid of
Federer even before the match begin, means they already loose mentally even before the match
begin. Just my opinion...

But thanks God now someone has shown that he is mentally and physically ready to face Federer
and he just won the match against Federer in Semi Final Australian Open 2008.
Congratz to Serbian, Novak Djokovic!

Now the Men's Final of Australian Open is getting hot.
Unseeded player a.k.a Muhammad Ali a.k.a Jo-Wilfried Tsonga will meet Djokovic on the Final. I still hardly forget how beautiful Tsonga played the match with Nadal yesterday. Nadal was effortless and Tsonga was remarkable and definitely The-Man-of-The-Match!








The ESPN host, Vijay or the other guy, I can't remember exactly who said this: "Every strokes that Tsonga do seems ridiculuously easy for him". I'm hoping Tsonga will maintain his brilliant performance until his final match with Djokovic.


Anyway, do you watch American TV Series, HEROES?
Novak Djokovic, in my opinion, looks a like with Milo Ventimiglia, cast as Peter Petrelli in HEROES.
Both looks handsome, dont you think? Haha. Girls.













So, I would say that Australian Open 2008 Men's Final as final of
Muhammad Ali versus Milo Ventimiglia.

Haha. Just kidding.

Okay. Final words.
A huge congratz from me to you Djokovic to beat Federer and looking forward to see TSONGA and DJOKOVIC in the Final
and my support is TSONGA's.


Cheers from Jakarta, INDONESIA
