Old fool used to be young fool

Action Always Speaks Louder by Lilik Gunawan

Do you learn English everyday?

“Old fool used to be young fool”
(Basa Jawa: Sing tuwane bodo enome ya bodo.)

Do you think you’re so smart?
Try answer these questions if you do.

How long do you spend your time?
- reading English?
- Learning to speak-out what you think?

How long do you spend your time:
- read new articles, and
- write a summary, and
- write words you don’t understand, and
- write those words in a special book so you can check it everytime you need or meet the difficult words?

You see, if your answer is:
Less than 5 minutes
You know that’s why your English “stays on the way it is” and you should give more time to it. Be more serious!

Less than an hour
Well, congratulations! I hope your English would be better or even best…next year!

More than three hours
Sorry, I’m not on your league. Never take any advice from me.(honest)
If you have sometime, you should write an email for me. I’ll thank you very much for that.

“old fool used to be young fool”
Sing tuwane bodo, enome ya bodo.

Wheter we like it or not, it’s true.

Best regards,

SEO Search Engine Optimization

Action Always Speaks Louder by Lilik Gunawan

SEO Search Engine Optimization

Do you know what is SEO?
It’s “Search Engine Optimization”.

Whenever you want to know something you use search engine like Google (the biggest and the most famous search engine in the world), Yahoo!, or MSN. You type a word or words, or sentence in the search box then press enter or click Go, the it begins searching. Later on, you will see the search result. You can choose whicever page on website you’d like to view.

Now the SEO is a method or technics to make a website becomes a number one showed by the search engine’s search result.

How do you implement SEO?
It’s easy to say. [‘To say’ but not ‘To do’]

One,
Make good contents on your website.

Two,
Give something for free/gratis as a gift for everyone who visits your website. You can give ebooks, MP3 files, video, free games, free pictures, etc.

Three,
Promotion. Use some money on PPC like Google AdWords. Cause it brings a lot of people directly to your website. And the thing is they come because they feel interested.

Four,
Tell your friends to visit your website. It’s free of course, so it would never give you number one in SEO.

The best way to SEO your website is PPC. You have to spend a lot of money but it gives you good result. I prove it already. Visit my Indonesian blog:

Okey, that’s all for now. Thanks. Hope it’s useful for you.

My best regards,

My Country Football Team

Action Always Speaks Louder by Lilik Gunawan


My Country Football Team

Yesterday night I watch a football (in US known as soccer) match between my country Indonesia vs. Singapore.

I wonder, how come my country easily defeated. After working so hard with runnings, kickings, head-ups, freekicks, cornerkicks, tricky strategies,…

But still the score was 0 for my country football team and 2 for Singapore.

I felt regreted so much, so very sad about it! Sure! Of course!

Can you imagine, there are more than 200 millions people in my country and can be defeated by small country like Singapore! [Singapore is as big as Jakarta only]

What a big embarassment that is!

How could that happen?

With so many live-supporters watching in the stadium, still did not help supporting my country’s team.

What’s the matter with them? Couldn’t they just pick the ball and put it in the net?

Now I realized, perhaps it’s not the player, the coach, or the game that made the problem. But the management!

I’m sure they have done a very good job. The problem is they don’t have, we don’t have, the right thing as a goal to be reached.

Yes, sometimes our effort to have a happy and successful life can not be achieved, not because we don’t give our best effort, but because we don’t have the right goal!

Then we must re-think of everything. Make a better goal to reach. So whatever our effort we make it would end up with a good and better life.

That’s all for now.

My best regards,
Lilik Gunawan.

My Lovely Kutoarjo

“action always speaks louder” by Lilik Gunawan



My Lovely Kutoarjo


It’s me again Lilik Gunawan. I’m from Kutoarjo, Purworejo, Central Java, Indonesia.

I live in Kutoarjo. It’s a small town (or village?) in the eastern-side of Central Java. I’m not sure you will find Kutoarjo when you look in the world map. But, I tell you, it exist, cause I’m here writing this post for you.

Kuto means city/town. Arjo means prosperous/rich.

I’m happy to live here in Kutoarjo.

Do you know why?

Eventhough my country has a monetary crisis, fuel crisis, employment-unemployment-disemployment crisis (are this words really English? Java = glidik,pegaweyan – pengangguran – mandheg, dipecat nyambut gawene), et cetera.

But still Kutoarjo survive.

Can you imagine, 1 US Dollar equals to more than 10.000 Rupiah. That’s a very big number isn’it, e very far distance?

But still I choose to live here.

Just to connect to the internet I have to use cellphone and … I must tell you how expensive it is.

And still I feel like it here.

Well, I must say that with all those problem that we have here in Kutoarjo, we still have something to live for. That is hope.

Urubing urip iku ana ing pangarep-arep.
The torch of life lays in our hope.

We hope that someday we can have everything fixed, the way we want it.

I think that’s all for now. Thanks for your precious time.

I wouldn’t dare asking you to critisize my writing. But if you have something or a lot of thing to tell me, please feel free to cantact me trough my email address.

Again, great thanks to you.
Lilik Gunawan.
