STAY FOCUS

Everything invades to my head. I have a lot of things to be reached; Skills, Future, languages, I want to expert at all of them. Unconsciously, all that thought hinder me to do the most important thing. It is undoubtedly nagging me to do something on my third list of my priority instead of my first one, and abruptly my desire jumps into my first one or a second one. It is like a moving tangent passion of many things and the result of mind like that is being expert at none of it.

One thing I should do, that is make a priority and the goal setting of what I want to be first and make a portion of time divide for each of them. For example, I really have a huge willingness in learning mandarin and also being expert at English. What I should do first, put a bigger portion in which one is more important and then subsequently, take a smaller portion for the second one. Focus to the first one and be expert at it first and still, the second one is following that level.

Everyone has more than one talent on their hand, but choose one or two to be our specialty and sharpen it until it show the result, and other things will be sharpened later. Sometime we learn uncluttered things while the essential ones for our life is being forgotten. That would be a big mistake ever.

So, stay focus on what we desire in, and sharpened all of them. Do not add unnecessary stuffs into our mind so our skills won't be just average without something stand out among all. Knowing our strength is also the key of focusing on the real passion of us.

Manjaya Design







This is my Freelance interior business. God has given a lot of projects to me, so I can confidently put my several works as portfolio, besides projects from LIMKOKWING UNIVERSITY, my lovely University. Since end of October 2009 I made an fans account in Facebook

And also a blog

Hmm.. It sounds silly when Friends of mine thought that I made a personal fans group. However, it is just the portfolio of my works. Even though it is not perfect, but I am still in the process of learning and being better.



Here are some of my design:




































It was a long story how I can reach this level. I know exactly that all is caused by God.Willingness to learn and keep being humble is the key.
God had hit me down when once I being selfish one day. I thought I have known everything about Interior design. Nonetheless last semester was my first time my design taste be gone. All my works had been said by my lecture "No ambiance" that's mean totally tasteless design. When my friend got B+ I got C-. Ooh.. that was the most desperate moment in my life. I don't know why. But unexpectedly, I got a very satisfying mark for my final presentation, more than what I expected. One thing important that God had taught me, that is

keep learning in everything, there is always a skies on sky.

THE REASON FOR STARTING BLOGGING

This is my first time of being a "blogger". The motivation actually is quite simple, that is I have to keep improving my English language in vocabulary, grammar and so on. Because, honestly since I went to Malaysia to continue my study on February 2009, I merely use my English . Because most of my friends are Indonesian, so I used to communicate with them in bahasa. Here (Malaysia) the English has totally shocked me. Chinese and English has been blended up like a juice as one newborn language. Wow, it sounds incredible.
Nonetheless I have to keep my accent not to be Malaysian English. Oh no! it's so damn hard! because people around me tend to use local English likes "ma", "lar" use to be put at the end. Actually I am interested in listening and speaking in British accent like Mike, my friend and I used to use it(though it is not the real British). However it is just an accent, I have been influenced. The virus spreads so fast whereas my English lecture, Ferry (The best lecture ever) had told me that the Malaysian's English is terribly poor. What I can do now is trying to keep my English to be improved.
One day, I called my lecture and talked to him. It was little bit nervous moment, and how sad I was when He said... " Oh my god, what happened to your English?" I have told you! so hoek!
Since then I swore that I have to learn harder, that is why I write this blog to keep practicing my hoek English.
