Exchange rate of USD to IDR
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
I’ve been monitoring the exchange rate of USD to IDR. For the past few days and weeks, it has been going up and down at the range of IDR.10.XXX. So, when I checked the exchange rate in Paypal almost touched IDR.11.000, I quickly made a withdrawal.
Exchange rate:
1 U.S. Dollar = 10.983,3 Indonesian Rupiah
It’s been a while since the exchange rate between USD and IDR can touch above IDR.10.000. Probably the last time was during the 1998 recession. After that, the rate is always at IDR.9.XXX.
When I made my first withdrawal from Paypal on June, 1 U.S. Dollar = 8.944,22 Indonesian Rupiah. Paypal rate for Indonesia is always lower than the market rate, by IDR.100 to IDR.200.
If only I save the $ and withdraw now, I would have a so much bigger payout. The exchange rate between now and 5 months ago is a huge different! IDR.2.000 is alot wei. Haihz.. But, I can’t predict the rate, so let me just forget about the regret and blablabla.
First time ranting
Normally I don’t rant on blog, but this time, let me try to rant a hell outta here
1, Wordpress contest @ Lunarpages
This guy who thought that he is too good and wanna taste something out, so he commented a lot thinking that other people can’t do something that he can’t. What? Do you think your thought is the world standard? No miracle happen on you before or you’re desperate for some miracle? The funny thing was that after he knows something fishy, he tried to keep explaining on his blog like never before, for christ sake, be a man, do the right thing.
2, Linux and Windows I’m still in the middle
What the fuck?! This is another dilemma time for me. Currently I’m thinking to switch to Linux instead, because I like Ubuntu so far, but Adobe programs stops me again. However, I am doubt that Linux gonna give me things I wanna have too. Windows, I am really tired of the virus scanning and tweaking to make it faster
Anyway, for now, I’ll stick with Windows XP that tweaked and optimized.
3, The Chinaman style
Actually I don’t wanna start about this Chinaman but somehow he made me wanna say something out loud over this blog
Does he read the word “Max”? And does he ever considered nor asked me before he use my stuff others. I mean I boiled the water for my use, ask me before you dump all the water into your freaking water tank, when you boil water, look at the word “Max” on the indication so the water boiler won’t spoil hokay?! Are you that idiot to read “Max” as a student studying english for 2 years here.
4, Money start talking now
The other day after I bought the ticket for my parent with my mother’s credit card. She called me and said “The ticket, you help me pay la…” Though I did think about paying for them, but not so soon. Now, I’ll have to magicly print out money to pay the whopping RM803 for them and my own RM400 for my home returning ticket excluding the other RM400 to my girl friend’s house. Which I think, it’s about time for me to sell my ass?
Heh, writing in point style does help me think better and write better ![]()
Long time no see
Whoa… Sometimes ago, when I was here, I used to blog a lot, but recently, both of us doesn’t blog much here. Simple reason I find out after some analysis on my brain.
1, Making money
Due to the recent ruch hour, we need to make money as fast as possible. I for one, gonna graduate within a month, and I’ll need to go to Singapore for some long trip looking for a career. On the other hand, she having the same pressure, she need to make more money in order to fly to Singapore and spend her own, sin I might not be able to support her on the starting point.
2, Entrecard and SimplyWP and Contest
All those three are our main focus at the moment. To get traffic for SimplyWP to win the contest. Everything linked, and messed up a lot. Google Chrome did a great job on helping me to drop Entrecard
FireFox let me have the ease to use browser to do my codeing for SimplyWP and nothing can help contest
Let’s see if we’ll be able to blog more often here or not. We used to forgot about this blog ![]()
