I arrived this morning in Tokyo at around 8AM. Yey, TOkyo is still as enchanting and interesting as before!
Once again I am falling in love with Tokyo, especially during the winter season. Everyone is dressed well and fashionable. Even the aunties and uncles look fabulous, not to speak the youngsters.. I feel I am younger 10 years old by walking down the streets with neon lights everywhere in Tokyo... Banzai, Tokyo!!!
I went to yakiniku tabehodai (buffet BBQ) in Hanamasa Ginza.. This supposed to be my ninth time there. Afterwards, I headed to IFGF TOkyo to meet my old friends.
I bought winter clothes in Ginza!! Again, I have told myself not to buy any more clothes.. because I really have too much already. I cannot resist the temptation, Uniqlo 50%off... who can resist??? Bought two sweaters Uniqlo Fleece and two plain t-shirts for the inner layering purpose... It is quite cheap. Only 2,570 yen for four items! It is almost the same price for the transportation fee from Narita airport to Tokyo!!! Really worth it!!!!
I just had my dinner - a very unique gyuudon (690 yen). It is actually a normal gyuudon, but with a slice of fresh butter on top, making the entire don really tasty when the butter melts! I will come back to patronize that stall again!!!
I stayed in the hotel that I stayed before last year: Cube Ueno Hotel. Last year, the rate per room was around 7,000 yen. This year, it is discounted to 5,900 yen (only on Sat & Sun). With the same amount, I can actually stay in Sakura Hotel Ikebukuro. But, the quality and facilities of this Cube Ueno hotel are superb~~~ free 24hrs drinks + free breakfast buffet! Sakura Hotel Ikebukuro doesn't have those !!

日本、我が来るよ！
今ｼﾝｶﾞﾎﾟｰﾙチャンギ空港にいる。これから十時間後我が日本に着くはずだ。
日本に着いた後、多数の事をしなければならない。一番心配なのは論文についてのことだ。今まで、何もしないから。
今学期とても忙しいと思う。日本語能力試験２級をもう一度受けるつもりだ。ＣＦＡの二級の準備、仕事を探ること、。。。
来週の火曜日日本語の上級のＱＵＡＬＩＦＹＩＮＧ試験を受けることになっているんだが、まだよく準備しないから、ちょっと心配ね。今晩飛行機で復習しようとおもっているの。
天気予報によると、今年ＩＵＪは雪がたくさん降るそうだ。嬉しいな！スキーができる。
I am now at Singapore Changi Airport. From now onwards, 10 hours later I will arrive in Japan.
After arriving in Japan, I have lots of things to do. I am most concerned about my thesis as until now nothing has been done.
I will be very busy in this semester. I have to study for JLPT 2 and CFA 2. I have to look for job also.
Next week Tuesday, I will have to sit for Advanced Japanese Qualifying Test. I haven't really prepared well, so I am quite worried now. I am planning to study and review in the plane later.
According to the weather forecast, IUJ will snow a lot this year. Happy! I can skii... ^_^

Goodbye Singapore!!!!
Again, I have to bid farewell to all my friends in Singapore... Thanks for the great accompaniment, great food, great treat, great time during my two-week stay in Singapore... My life in Singapore won't be so enjoying without you guys!!!
I am entering a new chapter in my life. It is actually not really a new chapter, kinda a sequel from the previous chapter.
I will be arriving in Tokyo tomorrow morning and will go to my hotel in Ueno to drop my cabin baggage first. I will send the large baggage from Narita to my campus. After that, I will be meeting my friends @ ginza, savouring the viking style BBQ.. oh, I really miss that!! This should be my ninth times eating @ the restaurant..
After that, I plan to go to Narimasu to visit my church IFGF Tokyo.. I told God that one day, I will serve there either as singer (although I can't sing quite well), or as usher or as the webmaster. I have been Christian for over 10 years, but what have I done for God during these 10 years? If compared to my fellow friends who went to the same church in Singapore 10 years ago, I felt so small. They are now very dedicated in their serving to Lord. I am still a nobody!
I told myself: It is time to give back to God... God has given me an amazing life. He has given me many countless wonderful gifts in this life (from my undergraduate studies in NUS until my post-graduate studies in IUJ). It is now time to give back to God. And why this church? Many reasons:
1. The church is still growing. The congregation members are around 70-80 people. I believe there are my opportunities for me to serve as the servant of Lord.
2. I want to stay in Tokyo!!!! Yes, this is part of the reason why I chose this church.
Lord, help me to find a job in Tokyo after graduation, so that I can stay in Tokyo and be your servant to your people in Japan. I believe you have placed me in Japan for some reasons. Guide me to Your way!
Japan, I am coming! From today onwards, I will try to write my blog in two languages - a practice that I have done for 6 months since Sep 2008. I need to brush up my Japanese language skills to increase my chance of being offered a job in Tokyo.. But, nothing is impossible with Him!

A Great 2009
Year 2009, so far, is the greatest year in my life. IN this year, I have the chance to study in Japan, to do internship in Tokyo for two months, to go for exchange in Shanghai CEIBS for 4 months, and finally to have a two-week holiday in Singapore to visit my old friends. A truly enriching experience... An undescribable experience.. A memorable and enjoyable experience...
During this year 2009, I learned a lot, experienced a lot, and cried a lot too! Through this year, I am molded into a more matured person. Witnessing my friends getting married one-by-one has really added so much pressure to myself. Witnessing the success of my friends in career life has motivated me to work harder. I told myself that I would catch up soon! Just wait for me! I am still heating up my engine...
Year 2010 is a year full of challenge. I only have a plan for the first half of 2010, i.e. continuing my study in Japan. I will be graduating on 25 June. After that, I leave it to God to enlighten me!
I will not give up! akiramenai! May God give me the fighting spirit over the next six months as the next six months will be my busiest time ever. I have lots of things to do:
1. Prepare for JLPT Level 2
2. Prepare for CFA Level 2
3. Thesis (till now ZERO progress)
4. MBA courses & projects
5. Library part-time
6. Apply for jobs
7... many more
Nothing is impossible with God! Through UPs and DOWNs in life, He will still be with me!

15 things in my bag
I am a guy that always carry a bag everywhere I go. It is kind of strange for a guy carrying a bag, back in my home country (Indonesia, especially my hometown Medan). Unless you are wearing a student uniform or an office worker suit, you will get a strange glance from people. Nevertheless, I can't go out without my bag. I remembered that one of my friend always asked me, "Where are you going yah? Why bring such a big bag?"... Er..
Take a peek at what is inside my bag (tote white bag from FILA as of 25 Dec @ Singapore):
1. Wallet - Braun Buffel
I normally don't put my wallet in my pants' pocket. I don't want to bend my cards!
2. Mobile Phone - Nokia 6500 slide
Sometimes I put this in my pocket if I am waiting for important calls or messages.
3. Umbrella - UNIQLO
Useful in rainy days. Sedia payung sebelum hujan!
4. Note book
I am not a gadget person. I am still using a traditional note book (yes, with papers & pen). Maybe, if I use iphone or other smartphones in future, I will dump this! In my note book, I will keep a to-do-list, important appointments, notes, etc
5. Pen - PILOT G-Tec 0.4 Black
To accompany the note book.
6. Namecard with namecard holder
You will never know when you will meet important people when you are going out.
7. ipod mini
It is now 5 years old! Time to change?
8. Nike Water bottle
Of course with water inside! I have lost this water bottle once in IUJ and twice in CEIBS. But, in the end some samaritans out there returned to me.
9. Pocket Camera - Canon IXY Digital 510 IS
Bought from Amazon JP. So much cheaper that RRP in Singapore
10. Clean & Clear Wet Facial Tissues
I have oily face. This comes very handy and useful.
11. Sambal ABC
This may sounds funny though! But, I like this Indonesian chilly sauce very much. It is the best companion for KFC or McD.
12. Deodorant Spray - Adidas
No comment here!
13. UNO Wax
To keep stylish all the time. ^_^
14. Fresh Mint
To keep bad mouth away!
15. Keys Pocket
Where I keep the house keys!

Counting down... Last Day @ TAC
This morning, I was supposed to have phone interview at 5AM. I woke up at 4.15 AM and waited for the phone call from JNJ.
After 15 minutes have passed 5AM, I still didn't receive the call yet. I went and check the time conversion again. It was scheduled MOnday, 24 Aug 2009 4PM (Eastern Standard Time). I found out that it should be this morning 6AM. Just realized that in US there are two types of time. EST and EDT.
But, still I didn't receive any call at 6AM. Sigh.. quite disappointed... I wrote email to JNJ. I didn't have their email address. The acknowledgement email that they sent to me contains "DO NOT REPLY" email address. I sent the email through their website. Hopefully, someone there can reply me!
Ahhhh.. taihen na... I am leaving Tokyo tomorrow. Even if they return my call, they will not be able to reach me as I will be in Shanghai tomorrow. I need to buy a phone number as soon as possible in Shanghai.
Just heard the rumour that Facebook is blocked in China. OMG, how could I survive without it? God knows....
2009年8月24日月曜日
Keeping my fingers crossed...
I hope that everything turns out well.
Just received email from Kian Lin, my future flatmates in Shanghai that his friend is going to meet the landlord to sign the apartment contract and pay the deposit on behalf of us. I hope that the landlord is not backing out. Hope everything is going smoothly as planned.
Worst case - I have to find another accomodation in Shanghai...
God, help me this time!!!

Counting down... last Wednesday @ Tokyo - Farewell Party @ TAC
Although my last day of work in TAC is next Tuesday, my colleagues and my boss will hold a farewell party tonight at a restaurant in Shinagawa.
This is the first time and the last time we had dinner and nomikai together. You may think that it is pathetic, isn't it??? No, I don't think so! That is because we had lunch everyday in the employee cafeteria... We have enough bonding already.. hehehe... just that we can't drink in the employee cafeteria...
The WORST!!!
I have seen the worst one when I worked in NUS Business School. Even for my farewell lunch, I have to pay for my own lunch and only 3 (me, riky and my boss) out of a total of 6 of us in my department joined my farewell lunch... that is the worst I have seen so far..... Users from other department invited me for farewell lunch. They even paid for my lunch... so touched!! even my boss didn't pay for my farewell lunch.. okie... enough complaining about him!!!
The BEST!!!
When I left SilkAir, I almost cried... My boss held a farewell party in the office... At that day, there are two people from SilkAir who will leave the company... Me and May. She cried!! I almost cried too, when Penny presented me with the diary written by my closest friends in the company... I was so touched!!! I really missed my time in SilkAir... really like a family!
How about today's farewell?? Let's see...

I have seen the worst one when I worked in NUS Business School. Even for my farewell lunch, I have to pay for my own lunch and only 3 (me, riky and my boss) out of a total of 6 of us in my department joined my farewell lunch... that is the worst I have seen so far..... Users from other department invited me for farewell lunch. They even paid for my lunch... so touched!! even my boss didn't pay for my farewell lunch.. okie... enough complaining about him!!!
The BEST!!!
When I left SilkAir, I almost cried... My boss held a farewell party in the office... At that day, there are two people from SilkAir who will leave the company... Me and May. She cried!! I almost cried too, when Penny presented me with the diary written by my closest friends in the company... I was so touched!!! I really missed my time in SilkAir... really like a family!
How about today's farewell?? Let's see...
