The story of the lost motorbike
Hello, the gloomy guy is back with lots of bad news. But let’s start with a good news first: I have a new motorbike yay! That’s a maroon red Yamaha Vixion, fast and agile. Nickname: red beast. I was very happy with it. Then on one unfortunate day, June 25th I was working in the office until late. There’s this cool Drupal training […]
How Nyepi REALLY is in Bali
A lot of friends in Twitter asked me stuffs about Nyepi today, mostly the dos and donts. I’ve lived in Bali my whole life, so although I am not a local I get a pretty good sight of what’s going on in Nyepi days. In theory there are four rules Hindu people must obey in Nyepi, this set of rules […]
The saltwater-soaked Blackberry and Blackberry City’s repair service
So my Blackberry had been hospitalized in Blackberry City Denpasar since beginning of January. And since I am a man of one phone, I had no backup phone and I was reduced to my old phone when it was hospitalized. The day the berry got admitted, the staff said that “The repairman’s not in, so we can’t process this […]

The first website we designed […]

Whenever the chinese boy is in town, we have a somewhat weird habit that is going somewhere interesting and.. take pictures. This time the pick of “somewhere interesting” was Buyan lake, not the usual side where people camp and all that, but the fishing side of it. Apparently there are plenty of fish in this lake, I never […]
Traveler’s Tales #2
The check-in gate was closed at the airport terminal, so I had to go in from the visitor entrance. I was a bit worried of not finding a place to wait, but lucikly J.Co. was open at that time. As I ordered Mochabella I noticed there was a couple on one of the tables next to me, chatting. As usual, I went with […]
Travelers’ Tales #1
Last weekend I had a short trip to Jakarta to meet a client and visit family and the girlfriend. My flight back to Bali was the first flight on Monday 6:35am, it’s an overkill to spend just a few hours in a hotel and I don’t want to wake up that early to beat the traffic to the airport. So I decided […]
