Yesterday I watched Derailed. Clive Owen and Jennifer Aniston are cool. It is a suspense thriller about adv executive and family man Charles Schine (Clive Owen) who meets business woman, Lucinda (Jennifer Aniston), on the commuter train to Chicago. Flirtation quickly escalates, but their fling turns dangerous when a violent criminal, LaRoche (Vincent Cassel), enters the picture. With their lives now thrown terrifyingly off-course, they must figure out how to turn the tables on LaRoche and save their families.

I also couldn’t stand beng-beng…. lately. I already ate 5 beng-beng today… Yesterday, I ate more. Because it was saturday and I spent most of my time recovering, I kept going to warung Mas Wono to buy beng-beng… Oh God help me…

Regarding Hermana don’t you think that this blog is getting personal in every post made?
I think yes, this blog is getting more and more personal, thus will make it boring to read.

Quoting Hermana: “I really think that this kind of posts are represent a phase of a character transformation in blogwriting. As i ever mention on my post before, Ikko, this blog, is expected by me to be my (sort of) shareable private diary. Therefore i dont have any problem with those personal posts.
“untukku, dan hanya untukku, yang ingin berbagi denganmu..”

So, I am really sorry for you who get dissaponted for wasting your time to access this blog for no use, then regret it and say things like “apa ini…!!!!”

I love my class with Firman. This is one of our discussion material in the class.

Attitude
The longer I live, the more I realise
the impact of attitude on life.

It is more important than education,
than money, than circumtances,
than failure, than successes,
than whatever anyone might say or do.

It is more important
than appereances giftedness or skill.
The remarkable things is that
we have the choice to create
the attitude we have for that day.

We cannot change our past.
We cannot change the way people act
We cannot change the inevitable.

The one thing we can change
is the only thing we have control over
and that is our attitude

I’m convinced that life is
10 per cent what actually happens to us
and 90 per cent how we react to it.

So what does this mean? My latest book is a book by Andrea Hirata titled “Laskar Pelangi”.
The book is about his childhood. That include his teachers in elementary school, and most of the story is about his friends. You can read the synopsis from his blog.
Then, what is the relation between this book and “Attitude”? hahaha…
I cannot tell you straightforward, but attitude is one thing that really exist among them.
I am sure, when you have gift and talent and skill, they are nothing without attitude.
haha.. That’s all today.
