Abu Dhabi : I am coming to you in the end of this year (wish me..)

Traveling oh Traveling. Hemm… sounds nice and great. I have a passion, one day I can travel all around the worlds. So far, I have only visited three countries: Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore. Not bad, haha…. because many of my friends never traveling out this country :D.

Right now, I am half-dreaming. In the end of this year I can travel to Abu Dhabi, a capital city of Uni  Arab Emirat. One of the most prosperous oil exporter country in middle east countries. Why half-dreaming? because I have a great chance to travel to this city , Insya Allah hopefully.

Although, It has been a long time I have never writing any sciencitific paper, but actually  I have one unpublished paper. I have made this paper several months ago, and actually have been accepted in IEEE International Conference. But, I drawn my paper back because of payment problem. My payment is rejected by American Banks.

Another chance come to me again now, my paper is accepted in another IEEE International Conference namely: 6th International Conference on Innovation in Information Technology. The conference will be held on Al Ain UAE December 15-17 2009.  In this conference, insya Allah I will present my paper entitked : SWA-KMDLS: Enhanced e-Learning Management System Using Semantic Web and Knowledge Management Technology. I must be confident presenting this paper in the conference, because I get very good review from my paper reviewers. One of my paper reviewer said that my paper is Excellent work and outstanding technical content. I am happy with this matter.

But, unfortunately I am not sure yet whether my department will pay this conference for me. Pay for transportation  and accomodation during the conference. Hopefully, my department will. So, I can travel to UAE free, got any lnowledge from that prestigious conference.

Overwhelmed: Hmm………

“Too Many things want to do in Too limited time”.  Yes, definitely that is perfectly describing how I am right now lately. My desk in my office is fulled with work sheet. In my computer and laptop desktop as well, too many things overwhelmed me there.

Before joining Information System Department, faculty of Information Technology ITS as lecturer, one of things drive me to choose this profession is by being a lecturer, I will have spare times for out of work activities. I was imagining besides delivering lecture to my students, I can actively join another social and  religious organizations and activities. Dedicating my times not only in my work place, but also contributing in other places.

But, Imagination not always comes True. haha….. My Imagination is absolutely false. Standing here,  I am overwhelmed with many many works. Not only dealing with academic and lecturing activities. Even, I can not accomplish all my  academic activities.  Delivering lecture without any preparation is one of bad habit example here. And Writing is the worst case example. Here, I have never time for writing many ideas in my heads. Thus, regrettably many ideas in my head flight away by the time goes away, never have a chance to keep them in written manuscript.

Sometime, I thinks I should learn how to be effective people. Hemm… Good Idea, but I have never a great t ime s to learn it. In each weekend I have to got to go out this city, traveling in another city for my another activities.

So, when I  enjoy my Life? haha… fortunately, I am happy with everything I have done and doing. Although my life looks so hard but, I am happy. Dealing with anything that I love much. May tomorrow always gets better and better.

Well, Whatever happens, there should be a reason. Its My Life. And I love my Life as it is.
