Crab Master
Last night I had crab for dinner. Felt like a 'crab master' after explaining many things about crab to my friends. From how to see whether it is a male or female crab, whether it is with egg, to how to get crab's meat. :-p

Earthquake
Indonesia ... what happens to you?
Earthquake after earthquake, disaster after disaster.
Don't know what happen to me
but this time I simply cannot follow the news
whenever I read the newspaper, my heart ache
I must close it and leave it
I can't help reading
or I'll get insane ...
Long Weekend
Last weekend was long weekend. My friends and I planned to go to Kep. Seribu (Thousands Island). Many things happened. First of all, we couldn't get accomodation (they are fully booked) -- then we decided that we could do camping.
But then, on the last day of departure, the one who organised food etc was hospitalised! So ... bubar deh ... :(
Saturday, I went with Patrick to Kota. I was curious to see how I'd see Indonesian musea after my stay in Europe. (I used to hate visits to musea, but fell in love with musea when I was in Europe) We visited Museum Seni Rupa ... hmm ... how do I like it? Well, I really like the building -- and that's about it.:D

The 'unforgettable' New Year
New Year. As every other year, we went to my dad's place of birth.
Jan 2. I traveled back with my uncle and aunt. In Patrol -- could anyone find it in the map? -- our car broke down. The situation seems hopeless. Our 'only' hope was a 'montir' who doesn't shave nor comb his long hair, even worse: he didn't have the tools that is needed! Yet he refused to be said 'unable to help' -- he can, he just didn't have the tools!
We had to sleep in a so-called-hotel. It didn't have a name, the 'kraan' is not even there (there is only a hole in the wall where the water comes), etc etc. Nevertheless, we were thankful that we could find a place to rest!
The next day, finally the guy managed to 'make' a tool by which he could open the problem. It then took more than 2 hours before he could find the spare-part.
Later on we learnt that if the problem arose half an hour before, we would be stopped in not-so-safe-area. So it's another point to thank God.
