How do you measure your success?For many years, I almost believed that success is always about the amount of money I earn or about good career I have. But, recently my mind gradually changes. I met many right people on the right time that shows to me what success is. Through these people, I feel like God giving me piece-by-piece of puzzle to be solved rather than gives a whole picture. I called

Knowing how to speak English is one thing, but interpreting English is completely different thing.So, there he goes. Leaping into a character called an “Interpreter”. Last time I saw him, he was a lecturer with tons of office tasks during new coming semester. Preparing research proposal, preparing scholarship applications since he’s so eager to take Ph. D this year, preparing subjects to be

Yay, first posting in 2009 will be grouped in a new category called "My Doctorate Journey"... (Geee... I'm sooo eager to have additional "Ph. D" after my name, so it'll be "Windra Swastika, Ph. D"... Cool, ah? After finishing "My Doctorate Journey", next category will be "The New Adventure of Chasing Professorship", haha2...) So, it all started with a dream (remember...? we all are ordinary

This posting is going to be my last posting in 2008, and when I look back, I'm quite amazed what God has done to me so far. How He has changed me, renewed my mind, renewed my strength, moved me from glory to glory... Never doubt that God is indeed a good God. So, here are... the result of my partnership with God. Awarded as Lecturer of the Year 2008 M* C** University - June 2008. *)Achieved

“Hi Wind… So, how’s your ADS Application?” (frequently asked question of this month) “Emm… Unfortunately, I failed.” (the word “unfortunately” can be replaced with “fortunately” in the coming months or years… no doubt about that. but for now allow me to put the word “unfortunately” as the most suitable word). “Oh… So bad…” (thanks for your sincerity and pray, guys… I do appreciate that) “

Starting today up to next week or even could be next month, my emotional quotient has been and will be tested. I just lost my all my cell phones (N E71, N5510, N6215) - including the cards (2 GSM, 1 CDMA, and 1 Singapore Number). Someone broke into my room and took all my cell phones plus couple hundreds thousands (for my monthly expenses) from my wallet. How bad is that? For me, it’s bad. Damn

In the book of Mathew, chapter 5, there’s a very famous and powerful exposition that Jesus ever preach. It called “Sermon on the mount” (Kothbah di Bukit). This “Sermon On the Mount” starts with “The Beatitude” (Ucapan/Sabda Bahagia). There are 8 beatitudes that every believer should live in their daily life, “Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven“, “Blessed are they

I’ve just finished watching “August Rush” movie couple minutes ago. It really indeed a good movie, one of the best movie I’ve ever watched. (Thanks to Ivonne Sabrina who put this movie in her favourite movies list). If you DO love music, I strongly recommend you to watch the movie. I guarantee that it’ll inspire you more… Even for me, a guy with no (or very little) music talent, it’s still

Inspired from this Quantum Leap Posting by Pak Patris, I felt like having my own Quantum Leap on last Saturday Evening. … and there he goes, stands in a luxurious well-decorated stage before the church musical drama "Gembel Jadi Pangeran" start. His job is to preach what-so-called "Offering Preaching" - a short preaching before offering time… It was easy thou actually, very easy for him if done

She was 50 when I was born and I’m 30 when she died. Remember my early kid, when my parents were working so hard from day till evening. At that time, she was like my nanny, she took care of me, fed me, protected me with her love, she was truly my world during my early age. She told lot legendary chinesse stories before I sleep (she’s a good story teller, though). She also care about education.

During my theses research, i’m still doing my daily activities as a lecturer… You know, what I like to be a lecturer is trying to encourage my students to do something that they think they can’t do, encouraging them to maximize their potentials to the fullest… And the most beautiful thing for me as a lecturer is when my student showing their best, doing something that beyond my expectation,

Once upon a time, there's a little boy with a bucket of marble. When he was playing with his marbles, one little girl came to him, and say:"Hi, do you want a bucket of candy...?" The little girl showed a bucket of candy... The little boy stopped playing. He saw a colorful candies in her hand, look so yummy. He's thinking for a while, and say:"Ok, I want them. What shall I give to you in exchange

[apology if you can't have something positive from this posting] There were times... (many times, I think) when I reallyyy... realllyyy... want so bad that my normal life back. What is my normal life? Freedom. I used to have my own time. I used to go wherever I want. I used to be a person that do whatever I want and won't do whatever I don't want. Now, it's all robbed by this M* C** university

Fishes are designed to live in the water. Your cute dog, since the beginning of the creation, is also designed to walk on the land. The fishes can’t protest to God and force themselves to walk on the land. So is your cute dog, can’t protest to God then he builds a wood house on deep blue sea and play around with nemo, the clown fish. Obviously, it breaks their design.So are men. Every homo

I’ve checked. Webster's New World Essential Vocabulary (2005) defines word “tendency” as: propensity to move in a certain direction, an apparent moving toward some particular purpose. In Windra’s version, tendency is: hidden intention. Ha? Ya, that’s tendency in my version.For example: John is willing to help Jane because he (John, not Jane) likes her sister (Jane’s sister, not John’s sister). In

Definition of Buffet: A counter or sideboard from which food and drink are served or may be bought.Food laid out in this way, to which diners serve themselves. (source: wikitionary.org) Ok, i'll make it clear by my own definition. Definition of buffet (Windra's version):You pay once a fixed price and you serve-yourself, you may eat ALL you desire, you can eat as much as you want. Warning:
