End of the Blog, .....Bye Everyone!

Salam Guys
As I promise somewhere in the blog (http://ecdibbi.blogspot.com/2012/01/anybody-home.html), if none writes the article in this blog until the end of January, then with the very deepest sorry feeling I have to close this blog. While English Club still exists and our spirit to talk in English never ends (and of course free lunch invitation is also still very-very-very welcome) I hope this blog closure is nothing to you other than just fingers flick.

Anyone who wants to create a blog to train her/himself in English writing, he/she can just type http://www.blogger.com/ in the address bar and then follow the instruction. It is as easy as creating a document in MS Word or Power Point.

Thank you for those already contributed their writing in this blog. If you want to retrieve the writings, what you need is just to open your gmail account, and find out an email with entry prefix EC_DIBBI. You will find all of them there, as long as you have not deleted them before.

I apologize for having pressed you hard to write in this blog. Although the intention is nothing but to keep you in English mood and habits. Dont worry, if you missed this blog you can still train yourself in English writing with me by sending your one to my gmail address or even office address. My blackberry mobile phone is still connected to both server.

Thank you again and best regard.
Bye EC_DIBBI Blog, and see you, members, in the real world.

Welcome, Androvov

Dear chaps


Today we have an honor to welcome  a new member, who is also relatively new member to DPbS. The nickname is Androvov, but it is a call name for a lady. Yeaaa..............!!!!
She speaks English well (can be said emm....fluent gitu lo). We hope she can share her experience to us thru this blog, and we hope that this blog can be beneficial for her too.

Regards

Congratulations Pak Ahmad WIjaya

Last week seemed the starting busy days for all of us. And it happened to me too. After a sudden assignment to be speaker for IFSB Seminar in Bandar Sri Begawan, I was required to directly attend the product Working Group meeting in Karawachi, in which representatives from DPbS, DSN and IAI will be there. After spending 3 nights in BSB and 2 more in Krawachi, my head got fainted and the flu said hello to me.  And on Saturday I slept over almost all the day and woke up with a reminder from my mobile phone about Pak Ahmad Wijaya's daughter wedding day just one hour ahead!! 

My fainted head soon got over as I approached the Bidakara ballroom in which Pak Ahmad Wijaya had his daughter stood next to her bridegroom. A very familiar song welcome me and quickly I recognize its rhythm and lyrics. It was a song by Bill Wither, but I know it better by its sax blower, Grover Washington, Jr: :
I see the crystal raindrops fall, and the beauty of it all
Is when the sun comes shining through, 
To make those rainbows in my mind when I think of you sometime, and I want to spend some time with you

Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
.......

I feel as if the song was directed to me as I came to this function just with my wife, without my kids. We were photographed with our beloved as a wedding gift, the event that I even forget to do it many times. (Hiks) 

Surely I flattered myself since almost everyone with his/her own spouse tonight. And what mesmerized me tonight is that Pak Ahmad Wijaya placed many pagar ayu and pager bagus from his beautiful angels and their husbands...whew!! (What a nice couple of course). And it seemed that not only Wijayas' daughter who was celebrated tonight. I am right when the song is not only for me,

Thank you and cnngratulations Pak Ahmad, I want to go on enjoying the song

Just the two of us
Building castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I

Anybody @ home?

Days after New Year Eve for some people might be still loose days. Not many works are done since people are still discussing some plan for implementing work list for current semester.
It is already middle of January. It means that it has been 3 weeks since last member (other than me) posted the article. I hope I do not wait too long until other member posting an article....sigh.
If until the end of January there is no article is posted by other member, may be it is better for us to close this blog....(hiks)

Congratulations for Gembul who pass TOEFL test above SDM requirement. We do not know how much score she achieved, but for us it is a good news anyway. One step has been already taken, Gembul....don't stop somewhere....go on please....

Congratulations also for our Uni Wirdie for formal announcement from HRD that she already passed all requirement. Now the real struggle is beginning.....increasing TOEFL score, GMAT and so on, as required by the university...

Who's next? Ordinary Woman, Miumiu, Little Princess....?

Happy New Year, for whom?

“Happy New year, wish you happy and successful life”….flock of such sms and bbms popped up into my mobile phone. I lazily opened them up and deleted one by one. “Guys,” my heart whispered, “I don’t need all of these.” May be this is the time I feel sorry for having a mobile phone due to receiving many unwanted messages. It seems that other annoyances are not enough to disturb me along the night, such as the noise around my surrounding, coming from the bursts and eruptions of fireworks.
