Facebook keeps everything about you, even if you deleted it

I just found out that facebook keeps everything about you, even though you already remove the particular information from the facebook. I just checked out my server logs, and it seems I still got page hits on a page I’ve deleted from by blog more than two weeks ago. The page was containing project photos of my workplace, and to reduce the server loads and avoid to upload two times, I upload them into one of my facebook photos album.

To make things worse, my scheduled home leave to Jakarta is still 3 months away.The CPU temperature still sits around 40C though, but I don’t know until when this will last.

I have so many stories to tell, but I don’t know from where to begin. 2957km is the exact distance between where I’m sitting now to the address of my home back in Jakarta. I measured it using a GPS.

First impression when I got here, our main contractor changed their network configuration. They add some internet policy control to control their users to use the internet. I was thinking, ah at last, welcome to the end of slow network connection, I say horray for bandwidth and content management! From what I heard, they ask IT technician from their main head quarter in Japan to set it up the network. But in reality, the internet only good for several days, then it went hell again.
