About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to stay alive

ABOUT ME

I'm 26yo.
Born in Netherlands, moved to Indonesia and kept moving eversince before i went back to Indonesia for good.
Yes, i am mixed. Dutch and Japanese. ----- for people who are wondering about my Dutch name and my Asian looks.

I was living in Kuta, Bali, Indonesia.
I've just moved back to Jakarta few months ago..
Currently, I take care of the business my brothers and I have in Bali (sometimes you'll find me back and forth between both cities). And work daytime (7.30am - 5/6pm) in an oil and gas company in Jakarta.

Worked as a lecturer, and Head of Corporate Affairs for World Trade Center Indonesia.
I also wrote for The Jakarta Globe Newspaper.

Many people seem to think I'm stupid but I'm really not.. Maybe it's true that most of people always say i look high.. hahahaha..

I'm always confused
I'm easily amused
My friends are my life
I have a very short attention span
I suck at the english language
I make up my own words quite often
I'm rather random

I love Irony..

PHILOSOPHY

* Be normal, and the crowd will accept you. Be deranged, and they will make you their leader.

* Every great man was thought to be insane before he changed the world. Some never changed the world. They were just insane.

* I don't fail. I succeed at finding what doesn't work.

* It's always funny until someone gets hurt. Then it's funnier.

* When in doubt, do it.

* A crappy life is a great excuse to live a crappy life.

* Always apologize first--it annoys the crap out of people.

* "Losing builds character." You know who said that? A loser.

* Laugh, and the world laughs with you. Cry, and the world laughs harder.

* There's a one-in six-billion chance that you'll find your soulmate. And that's if they're not dead.

* Learn from your parents' mistakes. Use birth control.

* The government favors the most diplomatic language. That's why any letter to them should always start with, "Dear turkeys and foul maggots..."

* Everyone has an enemy. It's why God gave us baseball bats. Well, He gave us trees, but we knew what He meant.

* Born free. Taxed to death.

* I don't suffer from insanity--I enjoy every minute of it.

* We are brought into this world cold, weak, and helpless. Then it gets worse.

* Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.

* Passion, manners, and 80 ounces of beer will win the heart of any woman. And if it doesn't, you'll be too hammered to remember.

* If at first you don't succeed, then drag racing isn't for you.

* Take the time to smell the roses. Sooner or later, you'll inhale a bee and die.

* No problem is so big and difficult that it can't be blamed on somebody else.

* Revenge is good. It's what separates us from the animals and the hippies.

* Whenever you're pissed off, just remember that it's better than being pissed on.

* Screwed-up people settle fights through violence. Screwed-up people start wars that could kill millions. Normal people settle fights through cookies, cakes, and pies. Normal people are fat.
