About Me
First, welcome to my blog. Usually all my friends ask me what is “just my 2 cents” anyway…
Just my two cents… here what mr Wikipedia said about it :
“My two cents” and its longer version “put my two cents in” is an American idiomatic expression, taken from the original British idiom expression: to put in ” my two pennies worth” or ” my tuppence worth”. It used to preface the stating of one’s opinion. By deprecating the opinion to follow — suggesting its value is only two cents, a very small amount — the user of the phrase hopes to lessen the impact of a possibly contentious statement, showing politeness and humility. However, it is also sometimes used with irony when expressing a strongly felt opinion. The phrase is also used out of habit to preface uncontentious opinions.
Ok, that’s for just my 2 cent definition. This blog is about what my opinions and comments that popped out from my head when I see things or situation. I am not an expert about things that I posted or discussed here, but I think everyone has his / her right to speak out their opinion. So feel free to comment to my post whether you agree or against the contents.
About Me
Nothing really special about me. I am just a normal man who was born fifteen days before the last Halloween in seventies. Born in Jakarta, grew up in Jakarta, earned my undergraduate and post graduate degree in Bandung (capital of West Java)… all in Indonesia, it feels so boring, doesn’t it?
What do I do ? a lot, of course… but I prefer to keep it confidential. Let just say, I administer some blogs and websites in my spare time. Anyway, Thanks for visiting my blog ![]()
