Bought New 1GB USB Disk
Just bought an USB disk with 1GB capacity, it cost Rp. 260.000,- which is cheap for 1GB USB disk. I bought it because I want to use it for saving My emails, I'm using Mozilla Thunderbird Portable which can be downloaded in Portable Apps website.
Portable Thunderbird is an email client, it's a modified version of Mozilla Thunderbird that can be runned from an USB Disk, SD Card, CD-RW and External Harddisk without installing it. What I like from portable Thunderbird are:
- I can run My favorite email client - which is Thunderbird - to check My email from any computer that have internet connection.
- All My emails are saved on the USB Disk, so I can read it on any computer too.
- I don't need web mail to access My POP3 email when I'm not using My own computer.
One disadvantage of using portable Thunderbird is that it is slow. Because the application are in the USB Disk which can't be as fast as harddisk, even using the USB 2.0 version, it's still slow. But the mobility of the application pay the slowness ![]()

Hang Out With Angels
Last Saturday I had an re-scheduled meeting with My friend, actually We planned to meet each other on Sunday, but suddenly She SMS'ed Me that She had another meeting with Her friend so She want to meet Me in the same time as the meeting place is near to My place which is Taman Anggrek Mall.
I go to Taman Anggrek (TA) by foot
as I hear a story from Ruud that He once go to TA by foot, so I also want to try it too
- following the trail of My mentor. It's not too far after all, it just a little bit dangerous as there is no sidewalk for pedestrian, so I walk on the road and You know the traffic in Jakarta is horrible. I took about 20 minutes from My boarding house to TA. With a little bit of sweat
- I was hoping that I'm not stink because I'm sweating
.
In TA I met My friend with Her friends from Bandung, We take a walk for a moment in TA, My new friends from Bandung want to go shopping. Not for long in TA We go to small hotel near TA to check in, there is 3 boys from Bandung that want to stay for one night in Jakarta. Then We continue to Citra Land (CL), leaving the three boys that want to stay in the Hotel. Now there are only 3 boys in the group - including Me
- with bunch on pretty girls
hehe..
The girls seems enjoying the shopping, while We the boys just as a "guarding dog" waiting outside the shop
but nevermind as I don't have nothing to do in My boarding house after all
So We the boys just talk and discuss alot of things.
From CL We continue to La Piazza, but before We go there, We pick up another girl
We had dinner together in La Piazza. We finished around 21.00, because it was late already and the location of La Piazza is far far away in addition of traffic jam so I decide to go to My big brother place which from La Piazza is nearer rather than My boarding house.
So I split up with the others and wait My big brother to come to pick Me as He also on the way to buy some medicine on a Mall near La Piazza.
It was a fun day. I met so many new friends in one day.

Shopping in Bandung
Last Saturday I went to Bandung with some friends from QnAp Asia. We went to Bandung for clothes shopping
We go to Rumah Mode, Heritage, Kartika Sari, de Kosmo, Island, Cascade, Formen, and Summit. Wow.. that day is the most clothes shop that I visit in one day!
What I like from Bandung is that it's not too hot there, not like Jakarta which is very hot. But Bandung also have heavy traffic and the traffic light is not so informative, it's sucks!
Other thing that We do in Bandung is eating
We ate Nasi Campur at noon and Mie Rica-Rica in the evening. Oh yeah.. at noon I bought "Brownies Kukus" from Amanda shop. I don't know why but it is very famous in Bandung, if You want to buy it You must standing in a long line, crap! the taste of the Brownies Kukus is not so special for Me, I wonder why those people want to wait in line for more than 30 minutes just to buy that Brownies.. geez.. ![]()

Mission Impossible 3
Last night I watch Mission Impossible 3 at Taman Anggrek Mall with My friends. As always it's a good movie. I like the army gadget that Ethan Hunt's team used, it's so cool.. I won't tell You what gadget it is, You must see it by Your self ![]()
Another thing is one of My friends that watch the movie with Me is that I haven't see Her again in more than 5 months, I'm happy to see Her again
even not much We talk about as We usually chat via Yahoo Messenger.
Mission complete!

Internet Banking Activated
Yeah..! My internet banking account is now activated, I register for new account via ATM - Automatic Teller Machine - when I was in Jogjakarta.
The good thing is that My transfer list from My old internet banking account is still saved, so I don't need to re-input the account number list again ![]()
The other thing that I just realized is when I check the currency page, there is still Gulden currency which I believe is Netherland's currency before They start using Euro. The value of 1 Gulden is 4,429.14 Rupiah, which is cheaper than Euro ![]()

Polish Bread, Cookie and Sausage
Last night Pablo's brother came from German. Pablo, His brother and His brother in law are Polish, They came to Netherland for working here.
Pablo's brother came to Netherland bringing some typical foods from Polandia. I like the cookie and sausage, both are tasty
Pablo said that all the food His brother bring - except the bread - are home made. For the sausage, Pablo said that almost all houses in Poland have a special place to make the sausage.
Different with Netherland bread that can last for three days - put it on refrigerator and it will last longer - Polish bread only for one day because it doesn't use preservative.

This morning Marc seems very happy with His new Yahoo Messenger

after that You can start chatting Your self ![]()
I try to do the same thing with MSN Messenger but it seems that MSN is sucks
You can add Your self to Your contact list but every time You double click Your self You will open a new email - in My case I redirected to My Hotmail account with My own Hotmail email address already filled in on the To: field.
