Virtual Insanity

By Jamiroquai (Travelling Without Moving album - 1997)

Oh yeah, what we're living in (let me tell ya)
It's a wonder man can eat at all
When things are big that should be small
Who can tell what magic spells we'll be doing for us
And I'm giving all my love to this world
Only to be told
I can't see
I can't breathe
No more will we be
And nothing's going to change the way we live
Cos' we can always take but never give
And now that things are changing for the worse,
See, its a crazy world we're living in
And I just can't see that half of us immersed in sin
Is all we have to give these -

Futures made of virtual insanity now
Always seem to, be govern'd by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh, now there is no sound - for we all live underground

And I'm thinking what a mess we're in
Hard to know where to begin
If I could slip the sickly ties that earthly man has made
And now every mother, can choose the colour
Of her child
That's not nature's way
Well that's what they said yesterday
There's nothing left to do but pray
I think it's time I found a new religion
Waoh - it's so insane
To synthesize another strain
There's something in these
Futures that we have to be told.

Futures made of virtual insanity - now
Always seem to, be govern'd by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh, now there is no sound - for we all live underground

Now there is no sound
If we all live underground
And now it's virtual insanity
Forget your virtual reality
Oh, there's nothing so bad.
I know yeah

Of this virtual insanity, we're livin in.
Has got to change, yeah
Things, will never be the same.
And I can't go on
While we're livin' in oh, oh virtual insanity
Oh, this world, has got to change
Cos I just, I just can't keep going on, it was virtual.
Virtual insanity that we're livin' in, that we're livin' in
That virtual insanity is what it is

Futures made of virtual insanity - now
Always seem to, be govern'd by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh, now there is no sound - for we all live underground

Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity

Virtual Insanity is what we're living in

I Hate Messenger

BUZZ

Do you have a messenger? (such as yahoo messenger, icq, blackberry messenger, gtalk, msn, etc)
I bet you must have at least one. I have 2 not including facebook, friendster, and twitter.

And i just realized, messenger is evil, they make people become more robot, people evolve to be a robot, it's not a problem if you think robot is better than human, but it's a big problem for me. It's another potential thread for human being.

It's true that messenger help us to communicate, it can cut the distance and cost. But... err.....

How many friends do you have in your messenger list? 10/20/200? And how many that you chat with recently at least for saying HI in this month?
Most people thinking subconciusly that their friends are always keep in touch by messenger. And the problem with that subconsciusly are when they are meeting in persons, they think these friends always here in my messenger list, so it's not very important to meet in a flesh. Where's the warm of friendship? and suddenly they becomes only people in your friend list. Where is our humanity?
If you don't want to lose it, start to say hi to everyone in your friends list oftenly and make they are as really friends not just only people appear in your friends list ^_^

And do you realize that messenger take more time only for not really important conversation? Sometimes it can took an hour only for conversation you can finish 10-15 minutes on the phone. And you take more attention to your computer screen, act as your friends are inside that monitor. And at last you prefer to conversation with text, type what you want to tell more than oral conversation.
Because you think with chat/typing you have more time to thinking what you want to tell and make a better expression. And the things become different when you meet people in real world. Where's yourself in online chat? Do you have another personality? So pity then if it's true.
Start to meet person in a flesh if you a shy guy/girl !

Btw I wrote this note, but my messenger is still online 24/7, so I can't blame if you want to be a robot because we are robot generation, we have been enslaved by technology.

It's just another Virtual Insanity

BUZZ

Disclaimer

I'm not judging here, so please dont mind above story if you think you are clever enough to control yourself, I just post this notes just to make people aware, because there are some person i know become online people and leaving their humanity.

p.s.
When i write this, coincidentally i have conversation with a friend, a friend of mine that i've not seen for a loongggg time, friend that supposed to be "only" friends in my facebook forever. But because we share common messenger, hahaha, we get closer now (it's already 2 month since our first meet in messenger right?) ^_^ and i really appreciate my messenger for that reason. hahaha. And from that chat i realize that I love my messenger, I love evil because there's alwasy good side of an evil. hehehe.

Tabula Rasa Part I - People Around Us

I went for dinner at pizza hut with lot of friends of mine 2 days ago, on friday, march 20th, we go for dinner for my passed birthday and announcement for my engangement, i think it's kind of small party, we continue the dinner with singing like crazy peoples in KTV hahaha

Actually i'm not the one who likes to be surrounding by lot of people yet only these friends of mine can make me comfortable with all of things we have been done together. They are my college friends which i think i will remember everlast.

I think everyone has people like "friends", persons that make you reminiscing some old good days, laughing, be an inspiration when you got some stress, someone that may you not seen for long time but it doesn't change when you meet in a chance. People you call friends.
And they must be pour some color in your life or in the way you are thinking, or may be they kept some secret in you. It's good for having friends they are people that you can lean on when you got some troubles, may be they can not help but at least they will hear.

And we also got some people we called teacher, some of us will think they are important persons of our lives, some people not, it's not a sin thinking teachers are not really important, may be they just haven't found people they can admire as a teacher yet.

I respect some teachers from my college years, some from my school days, some from my work life, I learn from them not only the mathematics, physics or other subject that make you headache back then. I learn from their mistakes sometimes, so I will not make same mistakes. From their dedication as some teacher from my college years show me. Their fighting spirits. We learn about life from some people we called teachers.

And of course we have family. People that always by your side (but sometimes there is a case they can be more enemy than an enemy itself). Family may not the closer one for us, but they are the ones who will help you at the first time when bad things happen, and the ones who will be very happy if you reach somethings in your life. Family is not like friends, they are not the star that you can not seen but always there, Family is like a sun that always give it warm to your life.

Do you have enemy? We can be a very nice person, we can smile to everyones in every moments in our life, we can be a saint that want to help others in every chances, but all of that don't guarantee you becoming a person without an enemy. It's not us who decide who is our enemy, it's other people who decide wether they want to be our friends or our enemy. Having enemy is not really bad idea, sometimes we need enemy to make our life funier, we can have our enemy as an topic to have some chit chat with others, we can use our enemy to be a benchmark that we have to accros, wow it's really fun sometimes, the most important is, dont take it too seriously, enemy is not about hatred its only their choices (or yours). Hatred is difference story.... I will make another story about that... later

And there are more People around us, people that we are not realize to be there, people that we don't recognize, people that we hate to be around us, some important, some are not. They are just people around. But don't never ever estimated them. May be sometimes they are will be your friends, and there are lot of simple things they did to make your life easier, may be you dont feel it, because you don't think it is important, or you don't see it, but believe me, we can not life without them. Just believe me, OK !

Actually there is also Lover.... but just let the lover's thing unwritten.... (just an excuse for not make the note hahaha) i will pour it on the blog in other chance =D

Peoples in our life is like tangled wool threads, you can not see it clearly and never can figure out only by seeing, but they are the one who can be a jacket warming your soul according how you sew it. It's depends on you know, how to appreciate them and got somethings from them, it can be knowledge, experience, effort, money, etc. And remember that we give each others in this life, life it's not only about us.....

Let them paint our soul

Tabula Rasa

See Ya !

God Explained in a Taxi Ride by Paul Arden



Written by passed away Paul Arden, this book is verrrrrrrry gooooooddd book about GOD itself, it has some christian background (Paul Arden himself was a christian), but I think it's not a book made specially for christian, it is book for everyone, for people that believe in GOD, people that don't believe in GOD, agnostic people, even atheist.

This book is very simple, with only some sentences in each pages, and with nice illustration, it has british style of jokes which are bold and easy to understand for people that not use english as first languange, and based on Paul Arden experience as an expert in adveritising, you will not feel that you are reading a book about GOD as others book, it's very fun reading this book.

You only need 15 minutes maximum to finish this book, some people may be only need 5 minutes. Like its title. In a Taxi Ride, you can finish it in the leng of your taxi ride =D

I give all of stars i can give to this book, amazing book, simple book that you may think will be not really important at first sight, but after you finish read it for the first time, it will be in your heart subconsciusly and suddenly you already buy this book and put in on your favourite shelf and show them to guest coming to your house....

my favourite page on this book is page 36:

Blind Faith

How can you have blind faith in something for which there is not a scrap of evidence?

Well, the answer is you can't

If you could prove it , it wouldn't be a faith

You can only have faith in what you don't know

That's what faith is


ps. Paul Arden has 2 other books
- Whatever You Think, Think The Opposite
- It's Not How Good You Are, It's How Good You Want To Be

This review is subjective, books are like food and movies, every people has a different taste....
But I hope you taste this book as I taste it =D

Tabula Rasa, an Introduction

From Me:

Actually my intention to start writing in this blog is to force my self writing in order to improve my written english. For that reason i will just put everything i want to spread here, starting from reviews, my story, my experience, and at last but not least is about people surrounding me..... and everything what i think about them


people that know me, people that i don't know but actually did something to me

people that really important for me, people that only passing in my life

people that i admire, people that i hate

people that i adore, people that broke my heart

people like you

i learn from people....

and i will put that story under the label of tabula rasa....


From Wikipedia:

Tabula rasa (Latin: blank slate) refers to the epistemological thesis that individuals are born without built-in mental content and that their knowledge comes from experience and sensory perception.

Generally proponents of the tabula rasa thesis favor the "nurture" side of the nature versus nurture debate, when it comes to aspects of one's personality, social and emotional behavior, and intelligence.

Ofcourse my pembantu is quite stupid, she wasn't born in family like me, she is not me, and i'm not her, but with my arrogancy i want her to be like me
I got everything i have
and she doesn't

and i was so cruel inside, i was not yelling or swearing, but realize my heart swearing on somebody and my brain think really bad scenario is making me sick of my self.... please forgive me God.... I was arrogant, no... I am arrogant....

25

I'm 25 years old now, starting yesterday!

25....
quite famous numbers, people use it for silver anniversary, use it to describe a quarter of something (for things count until 100/0/0) especially indonesian people, we used to say something like seperempat abad to count things related with history, seperempat kilo to buy some sugar in traditional market, and any other seperempat (quarter)

And for me....

I got very rare experience on my 25th years old b-day yesterday, i got very hectic schedule, i got a very bad phone call from my boss T_T hiks hiks even i think i did not something wrong (it's good that missunderstanding already cleared), i got b'day dinner not with my friends but with some people i just knew for few days, i got a small b'day cake and some strangers singing happy birthday for me....

what a day !!!! i was very tired and cried in the morning but the day must go on.... and i just realize in the end of the day, i've surrounded by amazing people, so i've to look forward! There are more peoples i've not met and places i've not been there =D

25 is the gate of my maturity, i decided already for not faking promises as i sworn before.....

So long my..... youth.... (but im still young and not boring lah yaaaa, just added some responsibilities and awareness hehehe)

cheers
I was Smiling at the end of the day =D

Pemberian Kuasa dengan Hak Substitusi

Setelah beberapa bulan mendengar kata ini sering diucapkan oleh lingkungan sekitar, gw baru tau apa arti dari Hak Substitusi tersebut.... (heran ya padahal tinggal buka google doang tapi kenapa terkadang malas banget, memang yang namanya belajar itu walo gampang bikin males)

so singkat kata aja Hak Substitusi itu adalah

pemberian hak dari pemberi kuasa kepada penerima kuasa untuk melimpahkan atau mewakilkan kuasa yang diberikan kepada orang lain selain mereka yang tercantum dalam surat kuasa diatas

ilustrasi gampangnya adalah sebagai berikut
andai si otong memberi kuasa ke si cecep untuk menjual kambingnya di pasar dengan hak substitusi, maka jika ternyata si cecep pada hari penjualan kambing sakit perut dan ga bisa ke pasar dia punya hak untuk memberi kuasa ke si joko untuk pergi menjual kambing

(penjualan kambing bisa diganti dengan penandatangan akta, penandatangan kontrak, dsb)

ps. konon katanya hak substitusi ini sensitif klo di dunia pengacara, tapi bodo amat deh, gw ga ngerti dunia pengacara, dan belum mau ngerti
