I NEED A NEW MAC.

No way! I was totally offended when I tried to update my Mac to OS X Mountain Lion and this pops up. It was like screaming on my face "Get a new Mac!"


I like this old MacBook Air as it has been with me for so long, loyal more than anything/ anyone one could stand in a kind of one way relationship. I know I take more than I give; all those years spent learning economics are worth it. This picture below is from August 2008 when I visited Ve and others in Jakarta. The Mac, just like its owner, pretty much looks the same until now.


Anyway, if I were to buy a new Mac, the money might go to MacBook Pro with retina display as it seems tough enough for the hard job it would do in the future, yes I would enslave it well with some Adobes, iWork, and iWeb; although, I still have a soft spot for the MacBook Air line and the new 11" looks like a good travel companion one could ever ask for.

Time will tell. Right now, I am keeping this old thing.

Little SA


I was cleaning up my desk drawer just to find this old picture. I think you better not mess around with me.

She did it!

My little sister finished her master course way faster than me.
But that does not really mean that boys only know how to self-destruct themselves, does it?

Aroe Eilanden



These are the photographs of the Islanders from Aru Islands circa 1960s. On the top are the people who received some influence from the Dutch, clothing wise.

This is the island where I come from.

Of course, today, people look different as they are no longer Dutch colony and the islands are no longer remote, easily reached by PELNI ships.
