A Rude Intruder

You don’t have to work in an office to be familiar with office politics. Anyone who has ever had any job, anywhere, knows that the dynamics among those who are part of the work environment play an important part in how a business is run. Apparently office politics is an increasing problem according to a study by Accountemps. “Eighteen percent of an administrator’s time — more than nine weeks out of every year — is spent resolving conflicts among employees” (“Surviving Office Politics.” Talent Scout. April 16, 1998).
Besides causing problems for the individuals who work together, the end result can be far more devastating. Employees and managers who must concentrate on the political aspects of work may have less time to pay attention their jobs. This translates into financial loss which may in turn translate into job loss. Author Gerald Graham talks about ways in which managers can lessen the effect politics have on companies in.

otw to kampus kemaren sore, dengerin hard rock dan ternyata pas banget, yang lagi dibahas adalah Office Politic.
sedikit merubah pandangan gwe tentang apa yang namanya office politics itu sendiri. tadinya gwe pikir ga negatif. ternyata…hmmm office politic is definitely negative.
gimana ngga? tenaga dan pikiran yang tercurah untuk ngurusin tetek bengek didalam office politic itu sama besarnya dengan kalo buka usaha sendiri atau at least bekerja dikantor dengan baik dan berprestasi tanpa harus ada office politic.
sarannya, dont even get participate in heard sumthin that you dont understand. ga perlu ikut2an ETN alias eh tau ngga loe?
its better to be neutral, even sumtimes udah netral juga tetep kebawa2..damn!
tapi secara ya harigini, ditempat mana sie yang bebas OP? setiap orang punya kepentingan masing2, dan 11-12 sama yang namanya lalu lintas..nyaris semua orang saling jegal aja dulu.
beda tipis antara yang namanya tegas dan galak, karena tradisi orang kita cenderung lengket sama yang namanya basa-basi. argghhh i like my job, but i dont like the part of it, got to be nice everytime…
dan satu lagi yang menurut gwe bener banget (well actually ive talked about it more than 3 times on this blogs)
‘THAT YOU CANT MAKE PEOPLE LOVE YOU ANYTIME’
get a life…

its what do people say ‘ignorance’

sumtimes you cant figure out about your self, and what’s on your mind. just when people said that you are not good enough, let it be. no one deserve to be threat like an ashole.

In the Land of Womenkemaren, gwe nonton sendiri ‘the land of a woman’. its nice to watch the movie alone. i do enjoy it. i have more space for my brain to process the movie and the story it self.

His world in complete disorder after his break-up with a famous actress, Carter, a young soft-core porn writer, goes to suburban Detroit to care for his sickly Grandmother and heal his broken heart. Along the way he forms a special bond with the family that lives across from his Grandma, and changes the life of each woman. In the course of this, as is required in every film–and thus the world, he changes his own life as well.

the role was played by meg ryan (what more you could ask for?), adam brody (cute) and kristen stewart.

This movie was billed as a romantic comedy, but it’s really a drama, and it was so much better than I expected!

Redemptive and thought-provoking, this movie raises questions about if women and men can be friends without romantic undertones, and includes themes of forgiveness and living life fully.

Meg Ryan is always real and lovable, and Adam Brody is a great counterpart. It’s so great to see him as a leading man. I loved him in The O.C., but hopefully the bulk of his career is ahead of him. Scenes between him and the grandmother were hilarious. Very well directed. Definitely one to see with your friends and discuss over coffee afterwards–don’t take your parents.

the things that i always enjoy when i watch this kind of movie is..i love to see how people act and response every little things happen in life. and i can take a lesson from it. its fine to know that sumtimes you have a very bad times and decide to runaway for a moment, its ok to have a bad attitude when you feel no one threat you nicely (heeyy…you are not an angel who create only to do the good things anyway), its alright to take a time and reconstruct about who you are and what you’ve done. people do the same things. people made mistake.

its ok to ignore, its fine to deny and it has nuthin to do with people surrounding you with vituperation. its all in your mind.

woman, we have our own world and sumtimes we choose to fall into misery. its not that hard to be understood, but yeah..sumtimes we dont need it.

one more lesson from this movie is :

its nice to be the place for everyone, but sumtimes…you still need a space for your self, your own story

Monday, January 28th, 2008
When youre down and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, whoa nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest nights.

You just call out my name,
And you know whereever I am
Ill come running, oh yeah baby
To see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,
All you have to do is call
And Ill be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Youve got a friend.

If the sky above you
Should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud
And soon I will be knocking upon your door.
You just call out my name and you know where ever I am
Ill come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you got to do is call
And Ill be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hey, aint it good to know that youve got a friend?
People can be so cold.
Theyll hurt you and desert you.
Well theyll take your soul if you let them.
Oh yeah, but dont you let them.

You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
Ill come running to see you again.
Oh babe, dont you know that,
Winter spring summer or fall,
Hey now, all youve got to do is call.
Lord, Ill be there, yes I will.
Youve got a friend.
Youve got a friend.
Aint it good to know youve got a friend.
Aint it good to know youve got a friend.
Youve got a friend.

————————————————–

tapi yang jelas friend means everything.
and i love to have many friends with so many characters.

so please no more questions bout ‘why d’u (still) want to be my friend’
its a very unimportant..
cheers,
linda

Gothic flavor,
How I miss you.
If I only
Once could kiss you.

I’d be happpy
For one moment
Of my lifetime
I’d be there.

And the water
Running over
Me is growing
Ever colder.

Make me happy
For one moment
Of my lifetime
I’d be there.

Make me happy
For one moment
Of my lifetime
I’d be there.

bajaj!! bantet!! ga banget!!

Monday, January 21st, 2008

ugh!!

semalem tuw ya…kejadian yang bikin gwe trauma banget sama bajaj!! no more bajaj dah!! sebel banget gwe.

secara ya lampu merah perempatan arion itu najis gila pelitnya ma warna hijau..jadi lah gwe nyangsang di tengah2 kerumunan motor yang tetep aja rame meski dah jam nya orang istirahat (heran…bukannya pada dirumah, masih dijalan aja jam segitu). apalagi gara2nya selain bajaj buntet asal negaranya amitab bachan itu?

dah tau ijo, malah ngobrol aja gitu di tengah jalan…yang ada gwe dah ga mungkin berhenti secara mobil di belakang gwe dah tan-tin-tan-tin ga karuan!! tenyom!! akhirnya sukses deh gwe ngeloyor tanpa sempet ngerem dan berhenti nya karena dah keburu nubruk motor ajah!! arrrgghhh!!!

panik lah gwe!! say sorry setengah mampus sambil buka kaca, ngarep2 ga bakal jadi bahan makian dan dikeroyok gerombolan motor itu..huhuhuhuuuu…

dan alhamdulilah, tuw orang mau berbaik hati, gwe minta minggir biar diselesein (meski gwe juga ga kebayang bakal gimana nyeleseinnya) dia malah ngeloyor pergi..hikes. tapi tetep gwe denger ada yang maki gwe ‘gimana sie mbak, dah tau merah masih jalan aja..’ ihhh gwe masih sempet2nya ngasih penjelasan ‘gara2 bajaj….’ tapi arghhh sutralah nek!!

gwe bacut, pelan2, dan tiap ada bajaj gwe klakson aja dari jauh…bawel2 deh gwe, traumaaaa…..

dan gwe ga sempet lagi liat bumper kiri, baru tadi pagi..damn!! somplak aja gitu!! pantes tuw motor juga ngacir, secara rusaknya parahan gwe..tolooongg..!! bete gwe liat tuw mobil jadinya. ntar kamis gwe musti buru2 ke bengkel (again for the 2nd time on this month). duh…jangan ketemu bajaj lagi dulu deh gwe, bisa nyolot yang ada..tolong ya bajaj2, jangan ngobrol dan saling tuker pengalaman di lampu meraaahh!!! di pangkalan aja napa sie? (sorry to say, tapi emang gitu adanya, bajaj ngeselin!!). jadi inget dulu temen gwe pernah nendang bajaj dari motornya gara2 nyetirnya juga ngaco..secara kendaraan dewa!! dan oleng aja tuh bajaj beberapa saat…hmm…

today is the 1st exam, wish me luck

bos ga ada, jadi bisa bacut lebih cepet..hehe

grow old with you..hmm…

Monday, January 21st, 2008

Billy idol (speaking):

good afternoon everyone. we’re flying at 26,000 feet,
Moving
Up to thirty thousand feet, and then we’ve got clear skies
All the way to las vegas, and right now we’re bringin you some in-flight
Entertainment. one of our first-class passengers would like to sing you a song
Inspired by one of our coach passenger, and since we let our first-class
Passengers do pretty much whatever they want, here he is.

Robbie hart (singing):
I wanna make you smile whenever you’re sad
Carry you around when your arthritis is bad
All I wanna do is grow old with you

I’ll get your medicine when your tummy aches
Build you a fire if the furnace breaks
Oh it could be so nice, growing old with you

I’ll miss you
I’ll kiss you
Give you my coat when you are cold

I’ll need you
I’ll feed you
Even let ya hold the remote control

So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink
Put you to bed if you’ve had too much to drink
I could be the man who grows old with you
I wanna grow old with you

hmm…i do..i do..i do..

Dinihari…..

Saturday, January 19th, 2008

…….langsung tepar begitu kena bantal semalem, plg nonton sama anak2. Otomatis romantis…heheh secara gambling aja gt nontonnya, tercetus ide pas jam plg ktr, mendadak dan ya apa yg ada aja, asal jgn horor!!

nyaris ga ada yg bs gwe petik dari film ini, ya what did you expect from indonesian comedy movie, and the role was played by tukul, tora, tarzan (wait..wait..wait, what kind of name is that, 3 names started by the letter T? Coincident? Who cares?)

Cuma cerita ttg cewe karier yg diuber2 kawin dan akhirnya happy ending walau ga nendang (as usual, back to point 1, what did u expect from…)

ya trus kenapa? Ya ga ada….gwe cuma iseng aja nie ngeblog karena kebangun jam 2.21 dinihari tp susah tdr lagi, dan pas nyadar, ipod gwe msh asik aja nyanyi ndiri, dan ga tau kenapa ini kok ada musik gedombrengan di folder musik instrument ya? Hmmmm….kayanya gwe tahu nie siapa yg musti bertanggung jawab…hahah!!

dan gwe jg sukses membatalkan ke bali buat tgs ktr, ya apalagi selain final test yg menghadang dgn anggunnya? Plan naro mbl di bengkel buat repair baret yg terjadi akibat kaca mbl terlalu gelap dan mata silindris ini pun mentah…. Males bener nya gwe ngeliat tuh baret, cacat deh cacat!!

ya suw, wiken ini aslamat batal lg acara nyalon gwe, secara bos gwe dah ngasih job assignment yg cukup utk bekal wiken, smp hari minggu jg ada, lengkap bener d pokoknya hidup gwe (akhirnya terbantahkan jg itu prinsip gwe utk tdk menyentuh dan menghampiri ktr pada wkt wiken)

apa blh buat? Namanya jg kacung cung cung…sigh*

mode on : kriep2 siap tepar lg

Andrea bocelli’s vivere

Saturday, January 19th, 2008

This saturday,
after ngantor sebentar dan akhirnya jadi juga nyalon bareng gemps…after muter2 ke salon martha tilaar di 2 tempat yg fully booked, dan akhirnya nyangkut ke earthliving spa rwmangun. wuiiihhh nikmat bgt rasanya, ngambil paket srikandi..massage, lulur, totok aura lengkap plus masker full body. Alhamdulilah enteng bgt badan gwe rasanya skrg, dan baliknya nemu warung nasi bebek (msh di rwmngn) yg…hmmm sluuurrppp…lumayan nendang, bebeknya empuk and sambelnya..mantotep!

akhirnya skrg gwe terkapar di kamar smbl nyalahin aromatherapy and make minyak esensial relaksasi yg tadi gwe beli di spa.

mencet2 remote, nemu andrea bocelli concert ‘vivere’ di metro tv. Hmmm…penyanyi yg satu ini, kagun berat sm kualitas suaranya. Semua lagu2 yg dia bawain terkesan syahdu dan tenang bgt. Subhanallah, Allah punya kuasa emang…dengan segala keterbatasannya, ada begitu banyak kehebatan yg cuma dia yg punya. Suara yg bening dan nafas yg panjang…good combination.

satu lagunya andrea yg masih bikin gwe penasaran krn belum dpt liriknya smp skrg ‘ESTATE’ judulnya. Meski blm ngerti artinya apa krn dibuat dlm bahasa spain…gwe rasa tuw lagu dalem bgt artinya, kaya penyesalan terdalam yg ga pernah bisa ketebus seumur hidup…hikes.

awal gwe kenal lagu2nya andrea, dr si ndut yg (tumben) mau beli cd originalnya…heheh judul albumnya gwe lupa, tp kalo ga salah ini album keluaran terakhir dan covernya as usual face sendu nya andrea.

…and most of all, andrea’s songs remind me to someone..

have a nice rest and great weekend
