Ollie’s Novel: “Finding Soulmate for Mei”

Sahabat saya, Ollie, baru saja merilis novel terbarunya yang kali ini bernuansa Islami, tentang perjuangan dalam mencari pasangan jiwa alias soulmate. Dari blog Ollie: Back in 2006, saya mencoba untuk menulis sebuah novel bernafaskan Islam. Ini terus terang saja agak sulit.

Financial Accounting Basics

I just asked for advice from Andrew Trinh of Trizle (a business consulting firm, if you haven’t heard–and a kickass one, if you ask me.) Here’s the reply, verbatim, so you could kick more asses than most guys do: Hi Hendy, Yes! The best accounting book I know is called “The Accounting Game”. It’s an…

“I Didn’t Ask for Your Help, Did I?”

Last night I watched Crash, Eel‘s favorite movie. It’s a movie about life, how we collide into other people’s lives, and how people deal with it. Conclusion: It’s an excellent movie. Lots of magic moments in this movie (seriously! The touching, “oh-pretty-please-no” kind of scenes are there.) About 95% of the movie deals with racism,…

Alexandria, The Movie: A Review

WARNING: THIS REVIEW MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS! I can’t find anything I could love about this movie. Serius. Terutama setelah nonton I Love You, Om! yang kualitasnya jauh, jauh banget di atas film ini.

It was a tedious process. But it…

Quicken 2007 Does NOT Import from Microsoft Money

As discussed on Quicken forums, I’ve tried it myself that Quicken 2007 does not have support for importing Microsoft Money data at all (I have Money 2004 Deluxe which I recently upgraded to Money 2007 Home & Business). There is still a possibility that I’ll be able to get Quicken 2007 working with my financial…

Microsoft Money 2007 Home & Business Review: “Definitely Gonna Try Quicken 2007 ASAP”

After much desperation and frustration (for some undisclosed reason), finally I got hold of Microsoft Money 2007, Home & Business Edition. This is because the financial software I was currently using was Microsoft Money 2004 Deluxe, I guess an upgrade after 3 years will be great. Or so it seems… Installation was… very quick, despite…

New Financial Software… Required?

Recently I’ve had a conversation with my good friend Aulia Halimatussadiah. One of what we talked was about our financial management. She said her financial was horrible (she earned enough but spent lots more, hehehe). So I suggested her to use the software I’m currently using, Microsoft Money (I’m currently using Money 2004). It turns…
