only hope...

= ONLY HOPE =

There's a song that's inside of my soul
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinite cold
But you sing to me over and over and over again

So, I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours, I pray, to be only yours I know now you're my only hope
Sing to me the song of the stars
Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray To be only yours, I pray, to be only yours
I know now, you're my only hope

I give you my destiny
I'm giving you all of me
I want your symphony
Singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs, I'm giving it back
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours, I pray, to be only yours I pray, to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope

the best love song i have..a story about what a true love means to ... a deep prayer, a great hope to the one i love....

(a soundtrack of A Walk to Remember)

The Movie:

The movie revolves around the lives of two opposite high school teenagers: the daughter of a Baptist Minister, Jamie Sullivan (Moore) and a jaded, aimless hi-school senior, Landon Carter (West). When a prank on a fellow high-school student goes bad, Landon is punished by having to participate in various after-school activities, such as tutoring to younger children and acting in the school play. At these functions he meets Jamie, but does not befriend her immediately. When Landon realizes that he needs help for the play he asks Jamie to assist him. At school, however, Landon continues to look down upon Jamie and even mock her along with his closest friends.

Eventually, Landon is intrigued by Jamie's positive attitude, forgiving nature and overwhelming faith. Landon falls in love with Jamie even though she had previously told him not to. The two begin dating, which threatens Landon's reputation and friendships with other students. He defends Jamie on various occasions and decides to end connections with his previous clique.
Jamie finally tells Landon that she has a terminal medical condition and has stopped responding to treatments. As Jamie is hospitalized, Landon fulfills various wishes on Jamie's "Before I Die" list. The movie ends with Jamie passing away, but only after the couple was married in the same chapel as Jamie's deceased mother, which topped Jamie's wish list.

Personal Comment : a very touchy movie, no body can predict his/her age, his/her destiny, what people can do is only do and wish, may God bless us in every step we take...
Love is sometimes irrational, love is sometimes pleasing, but in the other days, love can be so weak and worst..that is the rhyme of love...

Tagline: It all comes down to who's by your side.

halal bi halal

yesterday evening was a grand halal bi halal which is held by our head office, GMUM in University Centre GMU, Jogjakarta. i was attending that party together with my fellows at 1830. here, we met all directors, managers, and staffs from all of subsidiaries and business units of GMUM. it was a very rarely occasion since there are all subsidiaries and business units attended this invitation.

the nice things i can see from all of the guests is that the dress they were wearing with, a batik. some fellows protested since he didn't like wearing batik, too formal, too old, etc. but i like it...i like wearing my brand new batik...hehee...

unfortunately, i dont like the food much. two days ago, i went to bonny's wedding and the dishes mostly the same, ugh...but thanks God, i can enjoy the party, the dining, the meeting...

here are some pics that was taken by bayu after the meal was over. the pics only consist of me, p yoyo and pa endar. look at the pic above and also below

sunday 20th Nov

sun. 20 nov 2005

jam 12 siang, tengah hari, aku dateng ke kondangan sepasang temen. lokasinya di Pilar Resto, Gedong Kuning. uniknya, aku adalah tamu undangan ketiga yg sudah dateng..emang sih, baru kali ini aku dateng ke kondangan yg undangannya berbunyi jam 12, aku datengnya jam 12 kurang 10 menit. hehehe...sampelah aku ke lokasi yg masih sunyi senyap, sampe aku khawatir kalo jangan² aku salah baca undangan, apa jam 14.oo yak...
tapi aku nekat masuk membawa stumpuk kado (titipan temen² lain yg ga bs dateng). oya, aku pake batik baru warna item motif spiderman lengan panjang, model kancing kebaya kerah shanghai (keren loh..mengingat perjuanganku berdesak²an sambil dimarah²in penjual batik di Beringharjo...kekeke...).
pas nulis nama di guest book dibisikin mbak² penerima kado kalo mantennya emang telat (ada acara pembaptisan bayi di gereja yg membuat molor jadwal). akhire aku duduk² di kursi di bawah AC, mencari kesejukan...sambil mataku keliling, sapa tau bisa nemu temen²...

in brief : iin dan boni adalah sepasang anak manusia, mereka adalah dua orang temanku di organisasi mahasiswa bahasa inggris se Indonesia (HIMABSII). berkat organisasi inilah, iin dan boni akhirnya menjalin janji sebagai sepasang kekasih dan kemudian melanjutkannya menjadi sepasang suami-istri, kami akrab satu sama lain, sering berbagi suka duka. dan iin pun tergolong sering menginap di kosku kalo pengen ketemu boni...(iin masih tinggal di madiun sembari melanjutkan studi di surabaya, sementara boni sebagai wartawan tinggal di yogya).

syukur bgt akhirnya, aku bs bertemu teman² lama...sejak 2003 lalu, aku terakhir bertemu mereka, saat pelepasan jabatan di Bandung. setelah itu mulailah kami sibuk dg kegiatan masing²...gak kerasa, ternyata aku masih merasakan keakraban yg teramat kental diantara kami, meski aku adalah satu²nya cewe di rombongan itu! sungguh aku sangat merasa bahagia diantara temen² gilaku...
thanks God, Alhamdulillah...
suaraku sempat serak ketika kami saling bercanda, berteriak², bercerita ttg hidup kami, dan...sungguh tak akan terlupa

to : bonny, bon, kirim foto kita yaaa...

strategic vs supporting

dear all,

siang ini aku baca di solopos (thu. oct 17, 2005) tentang rencana Garuda mau bikin spin off ama Citilink. Aku belum pernah naek Citilink, jadi belum bisa membandingkannya dg Garuda, namun aku hanya ingin mengomentari pemakaian status yg diberikan Garuda ke Citilink...

Jakarta (Espos)
PT Garuda Indonesia (Garuda) membatalkan rencana pemisahan (spin off) Citilink Garuda sebagai anak perusahaan karena sampai kini unit usaha itu masih dalam proses penyehatan dalam koridor Unit Bisnis Strategis (Strategic Business Unit/SBU).
”Citilink masih dalam proses disiapkan menjadi SBU,” kata EVP Sales dan Marketing Garuda, Agus Priyanto saat ditemui di Jakarta, Rabu (16/11).
Dalam beberapa kesempatan sebelumnya, Dirut Emirsyah Satar pernah menegaskan, pihaknya sedang menyiapkan Citilink untuk dipisahkan menjadi anak perusahaan yang serius membidangi penerbangan berkonsep murah (low cost carrier/LCC). Saat jumpa pers Maret 2005, bahkan pernah menegaskan Citilink akan diposisikan sebagai anak perusahaan paling cepat akhir 2005 atau paling lambat awal 2006.
Citilink dalam masa penyiapan SBU tingkat isian penumpangnya akan ditingkatkan dari rata-rata 65% manjadi 70%-75%.

strategic, dilihat dari struktur katanya, dari thesaurus pun bermakna sesuatu yg terplanning dg baik, penuh perhitungan dan menghasilkan sesuatu yg bagus.
dibandingkan dg supporting, tentu saja strategic lebih bermakna dalam. supporting itu peran utamanya mendukung, dan kurang menaungi makna tentang perencanaan, padahal sesuatu yg sudah jelas menghasilkan daya yg besar pasti akan memberikan dukungan yang strategis kepada pihak yang didukungnya. sedang sesuatu yg berperan mendukung (=support) belum tentu bersifat strategis selama itu tdk dikembangkan dg baik.

seperti langkah Garuda, kuharap tempatku bernaung saat ini bisa lebih memikirkan dalam-dalam pemilihan kata utk bisnis unit yg ada. Citilink sudah banyak beroperasi dan menghasilkan pemasukan yg besar, maka Citilink tak harus jd supporting lagi, melainkan strategic unit, tanpa perlu mengubah Citilink menjadi anak perusahaan. dg peran Garuda yg sangat mendukung perkembangan Citilink menjadi bagian dari perusahaan. misalnya dengan perbaikan standar operasional kelayakan terbang, dll..
mungkin Citilink memang tak sekelas Garuda, tp Citilink merupakan cerminan sisi lain Garuda yg juga punya potensi lebih dan bahkan tak menutup kemungkinan Citilink akan sebesar Garuda..

wish i will see GCP as the new GI .... not GI Junior..
