Next tuesday I will hold a big meeting regarding the start of the System Integration Project. I hope that the project will go allright. I expect resistance from some users, and even some top level management, but, I think I must persist and make it successful. I put all my confidence in it. This organization needs to move forward using better system.

Well, yesterday there was a bombing on the Australian Embassy. They said that it was a suicide car bomb. 8 people dead and hundreds injured. Most of the dead are security guards and bystanders. A militant group claimed responsibilty for it.

I woke up 3am today to start studying French intensively. I studied for about an hour and then went back to bed again. I guess my body needs gradual adjustment first to handle this kind of activities :)

Je veux apprendre le français tous les jours.
Means, I want to learn French every day.

Je suis déterminé pour apprendre le français au moins 1 heure de journalier.
I am determined to learn French at least 1 hour everyday.

J'aime le français.
I love French.

Back to work, today I wrote an email to some important people. I said that there is saying called "Dare to Soar", which says "Our ATTITUDE almost always determines our ALTITUDE in life". It is a good saying. I like that.

I have a meeting with the director this morning, just an usual one.

I asked for his permission to leave the office after lunch. The traffic to Mangga Dua was bad, moreover, the weather was so hot. And, worse, I forgot to bring any water with me. So, I felt as if I were in a desert. So hot, so thirsty :)

Well, after looking at the papers, I must practice French more often. Study.. harder... I must cut of those movie times and other leisure times.

Great news today. I've got a very important phonecall when I were in a meeting. Tomorrow, after lunch, I've got to ask permission to leave the office to get some papers.

Also, I've checked my account in the bank, and I've got a maximum annual bonus :) Thanks God.

Well, I visited my mom yesterday. Boy, I miss her. She had a big fight with my Dad, and now she lives by her own. Dear life, I don't know... I just feel sad if I look at my mom and Dad. They're not a happy couple, since I was little, they often argue. I don't know... maybe this is why I can't remember most of my childhood. Maybe my conscience unconsciously blocks all those unpleasant memories from my mind. It's true, I only remember bits of my childhood, and the good one is rare, mostly I remember the sad thing, especially when my parents argued.

My mom has been hurt by my father for so long. She always said that she wanted to leave my father, but she couldn't because of us - her childern. And now, after we all have our own family, she can't take it anymore. She said that in the years that she still have in her life, she wants to be happy. Oh God! I know that my mom always wants to go to France and visits the Lourdes. I want to finance her to go there, but my budget is limited. Oh God, please help me.

Last Friday, I went to the church alone because my wife had an occassion at the office. So, I attended the mass and lightened up 4 candles as she requested and prayed. I prayed quite a lot that time.

Dear life, as I said before. There are many times I'm so stressed because I don't know what will happen in life. But, now, I'm beginning to be able to give all my worries to God again. God, I trust that no matter what will happen, you have a beautiful plan for me. Amien.
