So, Off We Go! :D

We (me, Julian, Ahmed from Egypt, Nabeel from Palestine) will engage in a trip around California for this summer vacation week.

The plan is: Fairfield -> Seattle -> San Fransisco -> San Jose -> Las Vegas -> Los Angeles (Hollywood) -> Grand Canyon -> Fairfield.

Most of the time will be spent in car, so I think it is proper to you to know the car. She's a Chevrolet Malibu 2008.

You say what???

There are two particular courses that we, the MUM students, must enroll before we come into our separate special course (in my case, Computer Professionals). The course name is Science of Creative Intelligence, and Research in Consciousness that is the practical aspect of SCI. In SCI we study about an ancient science, that in all creature lies one pure consciousness (that is called creative intelligence or CI), in most condition it is blocked, and we should re-open the way to reach the pure consciousness. The only way to open it is through that so-called Transcendental Meditation (TM).

2 Menit Cukup

On my post before this, I put list of documents that I'm suggested to bring to the visa interview.
These are the documents that are really used.

1. I-20 Form
2. DS-156, DS-157, DS-158 Form
3. Passport
4. Bank Statement (Mandiri + BNI)

That's all. The interview itself lasted for ~2 minutes for me. No evil-gaze from the visa interviewer, no unexplainable rejection of visa.
Bah, padahal sudah berdebar2 ketakutan awak gara2 cerita orang soal ngambil visa ~.~ Yang lama itu nunggu diwawancaranya... banyak beut orangnya...

I will post the complete story later :)

Told You!


The bad: We're not crazy about the wider body, the smaller scroll wheel, the lack of video output, and the average-sounding audio quality.

The EQs aren't that spectacular but certainly better than the iPod's wimpy EQs.


See?? I've told you that iPod's sound quality and EQs are suck! =)) It's just too bad that I bought it before reading the reviews on the net =.=;

Yang gue tau sih tentang valentine tahun ini akan ada sekelompok orang yang merayakan valentine di sebuah panti asuhan. Acaranya termasuk pemberian beasiswa.

Jadi yang maksiat itu valentine atau orangnya sih, Pak?
