Let me walk you back to the memory lane and tell you a kinda long story of me in this post :)
Not long after the "diary era" of me, I was introduced to computer and I fell in love with technology. I liked playing The Sims after school until bed time, and I had myself registered too in Friendster, Facebook, and Blogger. I remember I can spend 50k rupiahs a day just to text with my friends, then I will not have any credit in my number to call or text anymore, and my parents wont recharge it until next month, they give me only 50k rupiahs a month! so I start chatting in social medias to keep my credit in my prepaid number safe. I remember using eBuddy, Messenger, YM, gee feeling so old right now! Then, I started to write more about chit-chat and what I feel in the blog (because a diary is so childish, huh). I also like to decorate my blog, have a blog walking too and get inspired from some fashion blogger. They have a lovely minimalist blog layout, and also have interesting stories written in every post. And... my blog started to transforming into a fashion blog.
After my dad retired from his job, right before I enter college, I start to think how can I help reduce living cost. I started to get serious with my blog, and it worked, at first I just got 1 piece of clothing to endorse, but then I get lots of things from internet endorsement (yes, this is way before instagram popular), like necklaces, watch, shoes, dresses, beauty box, shampoo, and painting.. I also started to have some online shops pay for a banner in my blog (until now), and I'm paid using dollar :D
This is the feeling that I feel again when I am selected as a speaker in a Webinar, representing my company, Tokopedia! Woohoo! I really am excited for this! It's the second external publication that I have, after being featured in KOMPAS newspaper in 2012. I hope I can help the participant in the Webinar to know more about web programming and have a fruitful session with me.
Who's the most important of all?At one day, there are some body parts gathered to decide who is the most important of all body parts. Eyes said, "I am the most important! Because without me, human cannot see anything and feel hopeless". Legs said, "No, I am! without me, human will not be able to walk and will need help from other human for the rest of their lives". Brain said, "oh for sure it must be me, without me, there will be no life, I control all of inner and outer organ in a human body!". With little hesitation, Anus speak up, "I believe I am important too!". All the other body parts laugh at Anus, Brain said "no one will said that to you!". Anus feel sad and then he stopped doing his job. Within 2 days, all the other body part feel very sick and cannot operate too, because without Anus, all the toxic cannot be dumped out of the human body. Finally Brain said to Anus, "Hey mate, sorry for what we've said to you, you are important, all of us is unique and important to do our jobs, no one is the most important, without you we'll also die slowly".
