I was trying out new stuffs around wordpress and kaboom… smart me first logged myself out and then I tried to recover it by copy some files over to where I thought might give me access again to the html. Then smart me again overwrote the folders and KABOOMED… all my wordpress files were gone.

Took me approx 12 hours with the very old UNIX experience of mine to get it back up and running, close to perfection.

In fact, what I was trying to do was move my blog to www.msteh.com/blog instead of www.msteh.com. Reason for all these twitching is I have the ambition to host my very own full-fledged homepage – blog, photography, etc etc. A real msteh.com.

I think after this sleepless night, I will be damn good in wordpress. Hehehe.

So fellas, wait up for the new msteh.com!

Tonight is the infamous Nuit Blanche (White Night of Brussels). I think I’ll hop on the Expat Brussels’ wagon and check it out!

Meantime, if you would like to check it out virtually – www.nuitblanche07.be

Today I have been screaming thru my lungs on 2 different occasions over the phone. At work so that makes me the office bitch of the day. But it was not that I got really really mad. I wasn’t. I was just very engaged and determined to get the point over. I guesss, this excitement drives me to be very aggressive?

I am not sure in fact. Should I adopt the ‘tidak-apa’ (couldn’t-care-less) attitude instead? 

My sister told me recently that I am too uptight. So I was just thinking, does being righteous drives me me to become an uptight bitch? :-S

But I read a guidance today, part of it says …the clear, resounding voice that declares truth and justice; the strong voice that refutes evil; the bright, confident voice that tells others about the greatness of this Buddhism; the warm voice that gives encouragement; the sincere, friendly voice that offers praise and words of appreciation to others…

I wasn’t trying to undermine anyone but its just that, I strongly feel that I have to speak out to any injustice or misperception or wrong thoughts…

Maybe I had use the wrong voices? Question is how do I get to play the right voice?

 Then again, I know its never easy to accept to be told that you are wrong.

As someone fully submerged in the world of telecoms, I find this creative. The Indian version of Wartel (warong telefon) – real mobility (comes complete with a bike).

On another occasion, I was sitting in the hired car. Out of nowhere, a very loud and near krrrrrinnng kkkrrrinnnggg… That’s weird, i thought to myself. It sounds like the telephone in my dad’s office. Our driver stretched out his hand to reach for the cradle of a fixed phone on the front passenger seat. It just tickles. Fixed-Mobile-Convergence!

After a difficult day, I welcomed warmly the sonorous sound of nam-myoho-renge-kyo. Its soothing. It heft me up.

Kathy was here today after work sporting her new kick-ass haircut. Vibrant. Makes me feel like having a change as well. (I’ll never be able to keep my hair long!)

Oh yea, the highlight of the day was that she asked if I would mind to be the Young Women’s leader for Pacific district. I said OKAY and I had 2 photos for the forms

So here I am, embarking on another new journey. I may have my hands full of being everything but I really hope I will do great.

Happiness is the joy in others!

Today was a difficult day at work for I was torn in between – to stay correct or to be ignorant. I know, the certain things (or you call them principles) which I believe in, is pretty trying at times when I really trying to put it in practice. EVEN more trying when knowing others are simply disregarding and doing things to their own selfish desires. Not for the sake of the beloved company (I know it shhounds corny but hey, the company pays our check and it deserves at least our basic commitments and not pure abuses in benefits)

The most difficult part is to shrug away the bad feelings spawned from the actions of others

Can I live and be sheltered (or forced ignorance) from the real world of ugly various human nature? Greed. Stupidity. Hunger.

So, anyway, at the end of the internal-war-fare-filled day, I spoke up. In all honesty. Still I don’t know (but i will expect) what bomb will explode tomorrow. At least, I let out my mind and this eased a lil of my inner consciences.

Still I am not too sure if this is correct (correct as in the sense of sensibliiiest thing to do). Should I had just kept my perimeters to the squares of my desk, screen and keyboard?

Aww I hate the corporate world.
