I can recall I was wishing for a new job for 2008. God’s great. Thus, this coming 2008 will sport a brand new job, brand new office, brand new location, and definitely brand new challenges.
I’ll be relocating to Jakarta next year. Yes, finally I’m about to move to the city once I despised so much for its inhumanity and roughness. Though my wife pretty much has been living there for about 4 years(?), I never been able to fully accept Jakarta.
You: “Ya iyalah, lah wong istrimu yang hidup di sana dan bukan kamu.”
Me: “Loh, kalau orang yang kamu sayangi tinggal di suatu tempat, mau tak mau kamu juga harus mampu menerima tempat itu kan?”
The smokes, loud yelling, harsh faces, mind-yer-own-business attitudes are so much 180 degree contrast to what I’ve been dealing with in Yogyakarta. These would be a great challenge to my social skill
. Maybe it’s my (finally) perfect (no-get-away) chance to roughen my weak-and-chickenish soul
.
Jakarta has been associated with hard and sweaty life. My (only) hope to go on would be my lovely wife, people to look up to (F/OSS hackers), and my dreams. Hopefully I’ll be strong enough to withstand the incoming storm.
Meanwhile, I think I’ll keep my mood in good shape with more web 2.0 in the horizon. I’ll make sure I’ll hack more fun stuff next year! Yay!
PS:
Yes, my sentences are like Mexican jumping bean. No biggie, I’ll sort out my mind later :p
