Those two colors that will determine my life.

On that day, i will wake up in the morning, eagerly. I will be freaking out, i will be stressed out, or maybe i will be ignorant, having prepared for the worst case. But no matter how ignorant i will be, that painful feeling will still be there, untill then...
Seconds will feel like an hour, minutes will be like days, and the world will spin slower, as i wait for the server to come up.
And then it finally come up.
And then i will open my notebook, log in to that website, and then the thrill begins...
What color would appear in that small text box, would it be red, or would it be green?
If it's green : I will be thankful and very excited because, i will be admitted in thr best engineering college in this country. But, have i made the right decision? Is the decision i've chosen the right decision? It's like this, I have a crush on someone, i really love her, but i know that she's too pretty for me so i forget about her instead and move on to another girl. But still, the love that i had to my true crush still there...
If it's red : It will be VERY FRUSTRATING because i will have to study for that exam and i'm not really sure that i can pass that exam. But, if it's red, i will still have the chance to chase 'my true crush' and yeah, pursue my real passion.
But i can still try to love my 'new crush' because maybe my 'new crush' is better than my so called 'true love'. I input that decision not based on nothing. But i have asked my parents, my teacher, my student advisor, and i have prayed to Allah and maybe it is the best decision for me. :)
After all, it is up to Allah. We, humans have nothing, and we are just Allah's property. And i know that Allah has many of surprises for us, and Allah has prepared the best for us. :)

My Awesome Future

What will the future Mr. Geonova be? Will he be a young scientist? A Nanotechnology Inventor? Genetic engineer? A top researcher? A doctor? The first Indonesian Astronaut? A Pilot? A mechanic? A biotechnology expert? A chemistry engineer? An IT guy? A material engineer? Or the next future Bill Gates.

I don't know, we don't know. Only god knows what he will be. But he takes part on what he will be in the next 10 or 20 years. Now here's the thing. He is very young, he is still sixteen years old. But, he has a vision. From that vision, he found ambition. And with that, he works with passion.

But, the problem is, he found his ambition late. If only he had found his vision since he was in the first grade of high school, he would have had a good grade. But he just found his ambition just right after he entered the third grade of high school.

His grades are uh, just average. Standard. Yeah, he is kinda lazy person, except if there is something that pushes him.
Wait. So what made him suddenly be an ambitious person who works with passion? Probably because somehow he accidentally found a random blog on the internet. It's just a normal blog with a boring template. But what matter is the content of that blog.

So what is the content of that blog? Video games cheat? Hack app? Torrent site? No. That blog is about an awesome student, who went to the same school as him. But she ( the blog author ) continued her study to the most awesome university in the world (in his version). She took an undergraduate program. At Massachussets Institute of Technology (MIT).

What? How could MIT be so awesome and drove him to be so ambitious? How could that event changed him?

The answer is simple. He once said what his goal is. He want to be "Rich, Classy and Educated" (he didn't say awesome because i think it's obvious that he is already awesome). And he thought that MIT is the fastest way to get there (i second that).

And also, he likes USA and it's culture (imho american culture sucks). And he is obsessed with blonde with girls (idk how he became obsessed).

So what will he be then? I don't know. But if everything goes according to the plan he made, it'll most probably be like this.

After graduated high school, he will be #adMITted at #MIT (and he will show his pride by posting at Path). And he will take a Major in Computer Science (he is an IT Guy since he was 5). After that he will work at Microsoft (and he will stop using pirated Windows). And after that he will continue his study (maybe economy, im not sure tho). And after years of experiences, he will start making his own company, he will recruit Indonesian students who study abroad. And he will build an empire and be the next Bill Gates *insert cool emoji here*

W...wait. How the heck he build his so called 'empire'? I mean what will the company make? A freakin' software?

Not really, he is a fan of futuristic technology. He has a vision that all futuristic technology, under one flagship of his company, will be at every house. Sounds cool right? Like there will be hoverboards in every houses, interactive wall holograms become a normal thing. It is cool right?
Yeah yeah, i hope that boy will get the best. The best for him, the best for Indonesia, and the best for the future.

Goals and Dreams

Have you ever had a dream? I mean not something that usually appears in your sleep, but something that you really want.

Of course, you all have a dream. Whether it's big or small, realistic or not. We all have a dream.

But what's the point of dreaming then? I mean it would not make any differences.
Unless,
You set some goals out of it.

Yeah, to get our dreams come true, we must set goals. And to get to those goals, we must set some strategies and steps to get to that goals.

And what's the dream for? It's for motivation. It's the reason why you are doing something. And it's keeping you alive.

With dream, we can be more passionate doing our works, with dream, we could be anything we want. Well, if you set a goal and keep working on it.

Good luck, dreamers. I hope we can make our dreams come true

Freeport, is it all bad?

Freeport Mine

Freeport yeah. I bet you readers always have a negative thinking about freeport. Me too. Heck yes, freeport is like implicit colonialism. They have been taking our damn precious couple of hundred thousands of gold from our soil. And what do we get? Nothing? Not so nothing, we still get a thing. Yeah. A thing.

So what do we get from freeport? First, we get money. How much money? WE DON'T KNOW. We never sure. Those american dipsh*t doesn't not have a transparency, and maybe so does our govt. Our govt. Never really show us how much money do we get from that damned goldmine. Or maybe uh... idk.

Second, we get education, wealthy living and so on. Uh wait, 'we' here not refer to 250million of Indonesian Citizens. Buuuut,it refers to just a small bunch of workers who work at the Freeport. Indeed. Of course, the Freeport are willing to make its worker wealthy, so they don't protest, and the gold craving process could continue without having trouble. Very nicely done move, uncle sam. A small investment to get an tremendously huge amount of money.

What else do we get? Nothing,w..wait. We still got a thing! An electriciry!money!food! Yayy! But which 'we' are we refer to, now? Yeah, still not the whole Indonesian ppl. Just a few village that is located near the mine, not whole Indonesian even the whole Papua. Ugh yeah, another strategy. Damnit.

What i suggest is, we should start doing some kind of transfer of technology. We still have 5 years before the contract ends, i think it's enough for us to get the knowledge of mining gold. And so after the contract ends, what is ours could be reclaimed back again. Hopefully.

20B Rupiah/Person/Year

Good night, Sleep tight don't let the vampires bite.

Yeah. Our legislative has demanded for a something called "Aspiration fund", that has amount of 2 Billion Rupiah per Year per Person.

The first thing that came into my mind when i heard this news was "What? You guys nuts or something". And i think others sane people thought what i thought too.

I have several reasons why that "Aspiration funds" is wrong from every point.

First, legislative job is to make a constitution, not to run it. It's the executive's job to run what has made by the legislative. So they don't need that aspiration fund thingy. Suuure. "Aspiration". Very legit and so unsuspicious

Second, Indonesian's budget is now in deficit. And you, legislative, want to have a money, in this current situation, by cutting electricity and gas subsidy? Ugh. Use your brain properly.

Last but not least, corruption. Yeah. Of course. I'm not being negative thinking or assuming negatively but, where the heck that money come to if not to own pocket? Do you believe that our legislative would do good deeds by receiving that money? I doubt so. I really really really really really really like you. No i mean i really doubt it.

In the end i hope that aspiration thingy would not become reality. The executive are in my side so, i hope it doesn't become reality.

The story behind 'mfgbawon'

Bawon
So now guys, im gonna tell you about how i got this name.

When i was 10 y.o. I had a cat, it was my first cat. But that time i had not named my cat. I got confused what name should i gave to him. He liked playing around pointlessly. And always on my side when i studied. And then my nephew got bitten by my cat. And he said 'bawon, bawon' which means 'baong' or naughty. So after that i started to name him 'Bawon'.

But a year later, something terrible happened. I thougt nothing gonna happen. That time i just gave him a frozen so good chicken nugget, but after that my cat started to puke, and a day later, he passed out. I was so devastated that day.

Now i put his name after my name. MFGBawon is a tribute to him.
I miss you, bawon.
MFG stands for Muhamad Farid Geonova btw.
