Long ago…I’ve been social, I’ve been talkative, but there are also times where i feel insecure and (maybe) too introvert. I call it the dark times, which is just recently. As I mention some in my blog, something bad has happened to the family that shattered us apart. No, thankfully it wasn’t Dinofam. sadly, its bigger than both of us. That story caused me and probably anyone in the family to shut the door tight. At some point, I even grew paranoia. I removed every pictures of me, anything about my life and my story, and stop posting so much at soc-med. I start being too gloomy and sad. Not like I’ve never been gloom before, but it is just tiring. I stop believing there’s good in anything. Skeptical, that’s how I became. Sometimes some fairytale wont even thrill me anymore. As if there’s anything good happen, something awfully bad must’ve followed them from the start.

Now after two years and more…things start to get better. The darkness that fall upon my head starting to fade among the mighty universe. and I thank Allah for that. I guess every fallout has a purpose afterall. At least it help me grow & become stronger. Although not completely gone, I feel a lot of burden & paranoia is slowly away. Now, after the colors are back into my life, I wanna start something new. I wanna challenge myself to not afraid to share my life story anymore. To be able to attach more into my own blog & laugh hard when I read it again in my 80′s (as if I’d live that long ;p)

So here I am. Now after I resigned, I got the time to start doing my long-planned ideas. And Imma start making new life for the blog as my first step. Will take a biiiig preparation for it. Wish me luck & hope to connect with you more in the future

Tadinya sih kita ga kepengen masang tv kabel, dan selalu menemukan alasan buat ga pasang. Tapi~ setelah saya resign & banyak dirumah saya baru ngeh, ternyata siaran tv lokal di siang hari ini ga banget! makin aneh, ga jelas dan tentu saja tidak mendidik.
Nah, setelah brainstorming (ciee, serasa mau bikin karya haha) sama papadino..search sana-sini. Sekaligus mempertimbangkan kebutuhan kita, akhirnya kita tetapkan pilihan sama 3 provider: Aora TV, TOP TV & Yes TV. Tadinya kita mau ambil Indovision, ikutan adik ipar yang udah duluan pake ini. Tapi dihitung-hitung kok ga worth ya. Soalnya banyak paketnya yang kita ga perlu..pluuus kalo berhenti sebelum 1th, indovision mengenakan penalti 500-600rb *d’oh

Jadinya dari 3 ini kita saring lagi. Channel mana aja yang kita butuhin, yg mana yang ga perlu. Dan tentu saja, yg mana yang paling valuable. Tapi paling penting sih, tontonan apa yang mau kita kasih ke anipchan.

Setelah brainstorming, kita dapet runutan kayak gini:
anipchan: national geo, discovery channel, nickelodeon
ngiu: star world, fox & fox crime, discovery, history
papadino: history, national geo, discovery

Gaada movie, karena kita berdua dasarnya udah movie-freak & selalu luangin waktu buat nonton film baru. entah di cinema atau dvd. Jadi kebanyakan film yang ada di HBO dan sebagainya kita udah nonton..malah sekarang papadino lagi keranjingan nonton celestial karena film-filmnya baru buat kita. Saya sendiri lagi seneng Red & anipchan develop kesukaan baru mantengin Thrill (untung gaada di tv kabel kita :p).

Jadii, begitu dapet runutannya langkah selanjutnya adalah nentuin mana yang paling worth the cash. Setelah several brainstorming lagi, saya & papadino mutusin buat ngambil AORA TV.
Kenapa? karena paling murah untuk kita. Tadinya kita mau ambil yang 59.000/bln. disini termasuk: disney, kids.co, jimjam, babyfirst, SFI, celestial, DIVA, Fox Family Movies, SMI, V Channel, AFC, Star World, Nat Geo, Nat Geo wild & adv, Goal TV & Euro Sport. Which is cukup banget, apalagi tujuan utama biar anipchan ga nonton siaran ga jelas di tv lokal *no hard feeling, guys.

Tapii…..berhubung papadino baiik sekali (thanks chubbyhubs *kiss*), tau saya suka Fox & kita dikasih gratis iuran 2bulan, akhirnya kita ngambil paket 99.000/bln. Dengan tambahan Cartoon Network, Star Movies, Fashion TV, FX, Fox & Fox Crime (hello there, investigation fellas!), AXN & CNN. Still no History sih, tapi ’nuff for the needs

Cuma butuh waktu 2 hari buat masang Aora. Pagi telp. Siang orangnya dateng trus kita isi formulir & bayar iuran pertama. Abis itu janjian buat pemasangan. Hari berikutnya, cuma butuh sekitar 2 jam buat masang & set. Abis itu, tinggal nonton deh. Kita dikasi free semua channel selama 2 minggu & free iuran 2 bulan. Lumayan lah..Sejauh ini Aora cukup oke. cuma kalo ujan yang banyak mendung ya goyang deh. Gabisa nuntut banyak juga..Mudah2an ke depannya lancar terus ya ini Aora TV.

Sekian laporan dari sarang Dino~…udah dulu ya, mau lanjut nonton New Girl @ Star World. see you next post

Only in my case with Sarindo, I wish it to be on/off before end :p

Yea as I mention before, my iphone has been wrecked twice. First only 4days after she came outta the store. I try to take a pic but the camera just freeze & never cameback. Papadino brought it to Sarindo (my first date & argument with sarindo apparently). 2 weeks later she got off good & all set. thank God.

Bu~t, then just about 1 week & a half later, she start acting up again. This time, she shows black spots everywhere. And her screen starts to shake, like in discolight. Papadino had to take her to Sarindo again (2nd, hopefully the last ^^). Aaand almost 1month and so later, she’s back. All new! yaay!

Apparently, they hear what Papadino said and decided to give me a new phone. Well, I think it is wise since the first has already messed up twice. All with awful problem. So thanks, Sarindo. Err…though it will be much much better if Telkomsel would kindly replace my 2months wasted net-connection etc. yeah, i guess its too much to ask of ‘em..haha.
Anyway, good to have my phone back. Its almost a month since I got her back, now I’m ready for bussiness! yipee

and i was just congrats my good friend for his bday now. a~nd my brother’s bday too. a~nd probably my old schoolmate’s if i get a chance. oh, dont forget my in-law & my son…ups, and my cousin too. Hohohohoho. such a lovely month…such a load-full spend ^^;

Anywaaaay..happy holiday, folks. happy end of the year. hope we can do alot lot better next year. i sure wish i can

Good morning October!

As I open my eyes, I look at you with smile..(and with the urge to check whats on twitter if my finger aint just flirting with instagram)..Oh how silly I am ^^. But I guess not as silly as my phone when it suddenly burst out crazy and spread this creepy-looking black stains all-over her screen! Hwaa…I’ve never seen something like that, tho’ I still believe she will be just fine and get back to her best performance soon.

Well…at least it was before the stains transform into disco-light where the screen keep shaking as if there is an appsquake, then half of the screen went absolutely black. At that point, I begin to worry. Rea~lly worry

So I browse any possible solution, try restoring the phone, downgrading firmware and stuff I can think of. Nothing works. Not even Mr.Google able to find similar problem. Then I worry just more…Afterall, this is already second problems I got since I bought this Iphone4 last August. The first occurred just 3 days after I bought her. You know, my first and only reason why I’m buying this Apple’s stylish is its camera. I would’ve stick to my 3gs if the I4 doesnt feature those awe Retina display & HD. So when my new I4 freeze everytime I open any camera apps, I go insane. I brought it to SARINDO hoping I can get a new one. About 10 days later they gave it back, still the same phone only fixed. Papadino said we had to ask for a new phone because it’s a possibility that this phone will break again. We didnt, because I think its already good enough I got my phone back. I dont wanna wait another weeks without phone. It was almost end of the month so my data plan was also out. I’m disappointed but its fine because the camera turns out wonderful.

And now, only less than 3 weeks after the camera freeze problem, my phone only get worse. I mean, with the camera freeze problem, there were people reporting same issues. But there’s nothing on this one. Even the guy at Emax stare at her amazingly, point out that we should really ask for exchange in case it’s factory error. I listened. So Papadino brought it back to SARINDO this Monday, insisting we want a new phone because there’s no guarantee this one will stop acting up. Its already 4 days and I keep questioning whether I’ll get a brand new or the same phone with possible issues later on. I have no choice but to get a bit angry if thats the case. I’ve bought it 2 months ago, only got to use it for 3 weeks at most, losing 2 months of my SIMPATI dataplan. Losing more if my social activities included. Do I have the right to be upset ? I guess I do.

A little step side from my problem, I dont wanna be disappointed by Apple because we all know Apple products are good. I never have any problem with my 3gs or Ipod so did Papadino never had any problem with his Mac or I4. So I guess its just bad luck…Furthermore, having one or more products by the infamous Steve Jobs is like having his thought and inspiration close to my daily. As if he never gone. I cant imagine living in the world without his creations. Without GUI. Our world would be just plain black & white. So uncle Steve, I’ll stick to my love for Apple. The way I’d stick to your most inspired quote: “Life is short, don’t waste it living someone else’s life.”

Habis itu adegan jatuh, jatuh, jatuh. Disusul tagline: They Finally Fall. Coming Soon.
Nah lo? apalagi tu?
Teru~s…tiba-tiba saya inget, adegan-adegan di ad itu mirip banget sama ad-nya AXE Excite yang pernah saya intip beberapa bulan lalu via youtube. Waktu itu saya lagi seneng-senengnya browsing iklan AXE yang katanya di-banned saking sexy hihihi. Saya inget pertama kali liat iklan ini ga terlalu tertarik, soalnya tipikal iklan AXE: sedikit lebay :p
Tapi pas liat trailer barusan di TV kok feelnya lain ya? Ada yang bikin ad ini begitu noticeable, terutama karena sengaja dibikin mirip trailer film. Penonton dipancing buat bertanya-tanya apalagi ditutup tagline misterius: They Finally Fall, plus kata-kata khas film box office: Coming Soon. Dijamin habis nonton trailer iklan ini bakalan sibuk nyari mbah gugel deh hihi

Pengen tau versi lengkapnya kayak apa? intip yuk..
