From Rags to Riches
(my first walk across the web)


A year ago I call myself a frustrated noob. I cannot perform a simple unrar on my documents. I cannot understand those web terms that I am encountering. A lot of questions are unanswered during those days. I watch a lot of tutorials in Youtube before I learned to install some applications in my phone and softwares in my desktop. Last summer I’m only a man that the only thing I knew is how to copy and paste folders. The only site I can browse in my Friendster account and my homepage, Yahoo!. Those days were so difficult and frustating for me. But I never give up and never lose hope. I try, I commit mistakes and then I learned one step at a time. A year passed by, I could courageously shout to the world I am noob-no more! These are the things that I notably remembered and learned in the World Wide Web for the last 14 months dealing with it.

1. Install a Anti-Virus with a Hack Serials ( c/o Youtube)
2. Install Java Games and Applications in my mobile ( c/ o ModmyMoto)
3. Run a webcam in our Yahoo Messenger
4. Download Music and Movies from LimeWire
5. Download False Movies with Viruses
6. Convert pdf files to doc files (vice-versa)
7. Enter in forums to download certain games in Windows
8. Change my the background image of my Friendster Account
9. Use torrents in downloading DVD Copy Movies ( c/o aXXo & FXG)
10. Watch latest movies in our country using torrent ( c/o Wingtip)
11. Read e-books via my mobile and PSP
12. Download PSP games with high quality ( c/o ESPALPSP)
13. Learned to hack my PSP ( c/o Youtube)
14. Watch my childhood animes like Huck Finn ( c/o Youtube)
15. Upload my gigantic files (c/o ADrive and 4shared)
16. Hack my Windows XP for it to be genuine ( c/o Youtube)
17. Uses a new search engine, Youtube!
18. Learned to play online ( c/o Facebook)
19. Express myself so much in blogs ( c/o Friendster & Multiply)
20. Make my so called-Personalized Blogs ( c/o Blogger)

I know there still a lot unlisted into this. Those aren’t that relevant but those things above are the most influential factors affect on how my life and my computer skills make me much literate compare a year ago. I never doubted myself that I cannot do those things, and that is the spirit we all need to answer all of those questions in the back of our head. Trust yourself, believe on your skills. Accept mistakes, and then move on. Learned your mistakes, use them as your guide in the future. I did all of those tips, and that is reason why I am here writing a non-sense post about your what so called - immaterial learnings, but think of this,

“Those things are precious for me and worth remembering everytime I am aboard across the web.”
