dead beat

yesterday was my cousin's birthday...
she turned 17 yesterday..
yeah finally she is an adult...
sudah bisa vote....lol lol
but due to the time conscious of everyone
we made the party today...

the party is in the theme of Hawaiian
thus, all of us dressed up in a hawaiian style dresses with flowers
decorating out heads and the neck...with all the lei's we really look very
very very colourful...hehe
but wooohhh the wather is so damn hot....
though it is a sexy idea to have it outdoor.... =)

but the hellish weather is unbearable...
really envy that little cousin of mine who can have a nice plunge in the swimming pool...
grrrrr.....boyyyyy annoying....
but well, overall it was not so bad....
and since all of us are in dress, so we have decided to wear shorts underneath so that we
too can plunge in haha and of course, we did that since the weather is crazy...haha

just that, haiz...the little girl who turned to adult, dont dare to dance, because she is shy...
and she dont really know how to shake her bootie as much...
hehe despite of us giving her the song 'she wants to move' from N.E.R.D
haha maybe its a wrong song....the song is too fast, she cant take it...haha

but anyway, it was really fun and tiring and hot at the same time...
because early in the morning, i was already awakened dont know for what
alert system on i guess...and tossed and turned in the bed for one and a half hour, before i finally get back to sleep...haha a nice more peaceful sleep...
then met my sis and the birthday gal at bugis as we have to buy the things we have not yet have with us...
before after that, we rushed all the way to PS to buy yet another things that we need for the occassion...

it was damn crowded...with all the people from all over the place, eating,shopping bla bla bla anyway, it is just so crowded that it is really not fun to squeeze in between these people during the rush hour...
and oh one more thing, when i boarded the bus number 61 to go to Bugis
i dont know why, there were a lot of elderlies going in and out of the bus...
making me feel uneasy for sitting down while the old ones stand...
but the problem is this, despite of me giving up the seat to them, as in, move in and allow the seat near the isle be empty for them to sit, they dont want to sit....
and made me feel stupid for shifting in and out...
haiz....i guess it is a mistake to get out of the house too early...haha
okay, i'm just joking... lol

damn, March is going to be over soon...and april is coming...
well, not so bad though, because 5th of April is Pharrell's bday
and one week before April is over, i will be meeting Steven...
and i will be away from my horrible hair...haha
but the idea that soon school is starting...damn it...its hurts....
it really makes me no mood each time i tink about school...
guess it is never in my blood that i love school....
even when i know school can be fun...but the idea that i have to stuck in school
haiz....forget it...i really dislikes that...=p

but well, the faster April is over, the faster PP is coming..and the faster that PP is over, means it is going to be Christmas once again....and the moment this Christmas is over...
someone is going to be home for the next Christmas....=) and that thought makes me happy...haha

Then, the moment he is back...
i will be able to have something beautiful for me to see
and dream about...haha
then the moment he is back, means graduation is coming...
and it means that school life is over...
GREAT!!!!

though i dont say that i like working either..haha
but that period when i will be jobless, haha i think i will kind of like it...
lol lol i so want to use that time to dance... feel every dances that i have been practicing
and really have a great practice time...even if i need to sweat like a dog...haha
indeed, i miss sweating...lol lol it kinda makes me feel alive... =)

well, anyway, got to go...
currently listening to Rain, my all time favourite dancer...
with his great song 'Move on' (really miss this song)
the time now is 2:03 and its a little past my bed time....
haha thus, got to go....
have to attend some dreaming session... =)

*pictures will be uploaded when my cousin had sent me the photos...haa
so be patient!!!!

take care then God bless
and good night =)

N.E.R.D CONCERT!!!


YEAH YEAH YEAH BABY!!!!!


DO U SEE THIS BANNER WITH THIS HOTTIE POSING SO IRRESISTABLY UGH!!!!!




THAT'S RIGHT MAN THIS IS MR. PHARELL WILLIAMS FROM THE NEPTUNES FROM N.E.R.D!!!!



KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! (HAPPY SCREAM!!!!)

Okay, so what happened was haha let me proudly announced it to you lol lol lol


On Friday the 20th of March 2009 I went to see Pharell from the Neptunes or more specifically N.E.R.D!!!!!

wohoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!! it is a damn crazy and energetic concert i have ever experienced in my whole life man....


he is like so goofy and in the same time cool and yet so enthusiastic that the night is a HAYWIRE!!!! =) FREAK... i really love the way he entered the room and with his eyes behind the golden brown shades, he looks so damn damn damn hot....haha



dressed in a casual white shirt and red waffle pants he is so charming and moved here and there like a wild fire...haha i really like the way he said this word ' WHO SAYS GIRLS IN SPECS CANT WIN' which was response with a loud roar by the fans... haha because in the beginning of the show, he chosed a girl in specs to come up on stage and dance with him...haha he is so damn humble also..when he saw that the girl's belonging fall down, he immediately picked it up for her....OH MY GOWD!!!! SO GENTLEMAN!!!!


i was sitting right at the forth row from the front and damn...i'm so happy to see him so close and CLEAR!!!!! woho... and then Pharell said 'EVERYONE IN THIS ROOM WILL BE HEARD TONIGHT, NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE, OR WHERE ARE YOU!!!' nice!


he also said 'I DONT CARE IF THERE'S A CHAIR IN FRONT OF YOU, OR A PERSON SITTING NEXT TO YOU, YOU LEAVE YOUR BAGS, EVERYTHING, I WANT EVERYONE TO JUMP.'



ouhh my gowd, he really got his own style!!!!!




he really made all the money we paid for it all worth while....as he had promised kyaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!! cool cool cool




lol, then you know what, upon seeing the audience beginning to died down, he pulled a face by sulking his face like this =( with a frown and stopped singing and inspect everyone like that




<<<<------ together with his band member Shay. too bad, Chad was not with them.



Then throughout the performance he also chose somemore people from the crowds to go up on stage and be part of the band....nice man....so lucky those people haha this time we are not as lucky as to get anything from Pharell unlike with Jason Mraz...
haha but well, sitting at the front row, i think i managed to get his best smile...which left me breathless for three seconds before realising that i was being a fool...lol lol damn my face must looked damn retarded...lol



at first the security guard was like kept warning us like no photo taking is allowed before, during and after the show....to everyone in fact because everyone was like having a pic check lol lol but of course the moment N.E.R.D rule the room, nobody gives a damn about the rules... i mean who doesnt want to take pictures of Pharell oh my gowd!!!! that's imposible!!! especially when several times he was like acting so goofy like stretching to left and right at the side of the stage to having a slow jog as a dance movement, to fast jogging as if he was running on a treadmill, to that cute pose of him inspecting the crowds and the way he cupped his hand over his ears several times to hear the scream of the crowds....kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa so cute!!!!!


who wants to let those goofy poses of him to be slipped away...haha

and of course, with the show so cool everyone wants to keep it as a memory...haha
anyway, the one and a half hour show was really a good performance.....and at the end of it, i threw a Mr. Happy key chain to the stage which was taken by the one of the people in charge of the stage and i asked him to help me give it to one of his band member who was clearing up the musical instrument and i requested him to give it to Pharell haha and the Mr. Happy was being placed on top of their keyboard....ahhh nice!!!! hope Pharell/ N.E.R.D does receive it... hehe


Well, anyway.....its a GREAT GREAT GREAT....BRILLIANT SHOW OVERALL!!!!!
KYYAAAAA AND CANT WAIT FOR HIM TO COME BACK AGAIN!!!! =)

Toilets









this is the various type of other countries that are being transferred to Indonesia..hahaa


so the first one as you can see it, with all the bamboo plant thingy and stone like sink and bamboo shoot like water tap. one should be able to roughly guess what country is that haha yeah yeah yeah exactly it is the country of where mochi cake come frome JAPAN!!!!! and see see, because the outer look of the building of the next storey after America is Japan, thus, the toileting of that storey is also in Japanese style. sexy eh...i have some pictures with the outer look but well its in my sis phone haha thus have not been able to post it here...lol sorry about that.




next is the country that had always
mesmerised me ever since i watched
Aladin when i was a kid.
The country that was so full
of exotism and charm on its own
be it in the way the people dress
or the way the people
portray themselves
in both human way or
architecture way.
welcome to Arab people!!!!
look at this beautifully drapped clothes
that was drapped from one point to another
in various different colours
as well as the bohemian style
lamps that immediately change the
outlook of the American style of lamps.
Amazing isnt it....
wooh.....amazed!get even more stupefied by the wonderfully made flooring


see see see....cool right...


they seems to me like fixing the little little ceramics one by one can
on the floor leh....cool siah!!!!!
haha interesting really very very interesting even the toilet is also like that haha
i was so embarrassed to take the picture in the toilet with the janitor looking at me haha
(bikin malu aja )








and okay, last but not least, just want to take this opportunity to also show you the night look of Jakarta hehehe show off donk....






yeah this picture i took from the back of a restaurant in GI/ grand indo. the restaurant really sells nice food and nice drinks..haha especially the granny's homemade ice tea haha
okay, ya, so this is what it look like in Indo at night, haha with the nice fountain also in the middle of the road...really in the middle of the busy road this one...with the welcome statue on top of the fountain. yeah and u see those flags around that lined the side of the road, yeah that is the Java Jazz festival flag as they welcome the festival...haha yeah so thats basically al about it today...haha
thank you for reading and hope u enjoy the pictures lol lol


GRAND INDONESIA

YEEHAAAAA
here i am in grand indonesia

a grand just like its name mall

that had rock every indonesian to go

and clear their curiousity about what is inside...

Of course, just like it's name

it is damn grand

and has a lot of grand things inside that

leave me mesmerise even the architecture of the toilet =)



huahaha okay so this is the first thing that we see when we go all

the way up up up to the fourth and fifth level.

the scenery of New York city with this golden man half sliding posing behind the fountain that will turn to a musical fountain at exactly 6 p.m.



and on the day that i watched the show, the musical that was being played during the show was first the song by Frank Sinatra, New York New York followed by The Phantom of the Opera theme song and ended it with the song 'That's all i asked of you' also one of the song used in the Phantom of the opera.

crazy right, musical fountain indoor haha

but thats the way it is.



and this, is the lamp that was being lit up along the long walk as we walk around the restaurants that lined the 'street' vintage eh and it looks like Narnia kind of lamp lol lol yeah and that is the scenery of what the street in the mall look like..haha they made it as if it is a bistro kind of thing u know...yeah with cozy cafes and restaurant lining the side of the road.

so basically we are in a mall in Indonesia, but with America, New York sensation lol.
as if we are being transferred all the way to a different country.



then, as we walked further, there is this huge windmilll that looked like the one in Moulin Rouge...kyaaaaa...nice show...



thinking of Moulin Rouge let me think of the song 'Nature Boy' by Nat King Cole a nice song that really suits Christian, the man character in Moulin Rouge the movie. (have u watch it? what are u waiting for? its a nice show!!!! hehe )






exactly beside the windmill is this beautiful fountain except that being blocked by the bright sunlight, the fountain became a silhouet. but i guess u will be able to see some of the idea about it...haha yeah just like all exquicite fountain, it is decorated with angels and carved with wonderful details that definitely will leave u spellbound upon seeing it.

okay, so for the convinience of me lol lol lol
i will post the other pictures on the other post lol haha so that i wont need to drag drig drag all the pictures down haha

WW4

the moon dreamer...
currently still in my holidays haha
doing nothing but just expanding my dreams and dreams even more lol lol
challenging myself to do things that i hardly able to do
like waking up in the morning to exercise (which i still failed to do )
haha the cover just so warm for me to get out from it in the morning haha
or to read a book everyday lol
indeed what i have been doing apart from dreaming and improving in my dance steps
which i had eventually forgotten (ohh my gowd)
was watching youtube haha
and yesterday was a disaster
because world war 4 occured in the home
which occured with me being the fighter...
which eventually led me wounded as well
lol
emotionally wounded though rather than physical...
wounded for being both the fighter and the victim haha
if u know what i mean
but fortunately, madeline cakes saves my day
and i was glad that i managed to make a good job baking
though i dont really have the 'template' for the madeline
hehe
but anyway not so bad a thing.
then today, was happy to see 'your man' dance move by Shinhwa
the legendary boyband in Korea hehehe (bosting neh, act informative haha ) and able to follow the steps a little at a time
gee...before my mom woke up from her nightmare and asked me to stop.
but well that's all that i did today basically haha
enjoying myself to the fullest =)

Tuesday, March 17, 2009

currently listening to Shinhwa
hehe for a while it seems like so long ago since the last time i heard their voices
haiz...wat to do all the members are away to the NS. damn it.
and all the news in the magazine just didnt seems as fun as when there are shinhwa haha
because shinhwa is always very funny especially the wit boy lol lol
really miss his lame witty jokes...plus his funny laughter that make him damn witty haha

so bored here with nothing to do but just waited for the days to go by...
haiz....seems like all the things that i want to do eventually goes down the drain
due to the laziness that takes control haha
in fact to think of it, i dont know either wat to do to get rid of the boredom...
(mr tall sih ngga disini haha )

actually i dont mind posting more about the indo trip
but the idea that the pics need to be posted in not a very easy way to do it...
haiz...it makes me lost appetiate in doing so ....haha
my parents had been asking me where i wanted to go to spend the holidays haha
and honestly speaking there's a lot of list man...haa
i dont mind going back to hongkong or Shanghai lol
or go all the way to Bali for a relaxation...lol lol....

but oh btw, recently had been listening to or rather reading informations about Adam Levine and Jared Leto and his handsome brother Shannon Leto
and ohhh my gowd...i think i'm in love with Shannon Leto
haha Adam Levine is sweet but he is kind of kinky haha
so it can be kind of creepy lol lol but he is very very funny person...
and i really like the way he talks...=) nice husky voice...lol

kyaaaaaaaaaaaa so happy to be able to read 30 seconds to mars official website
cause i was able to enjoy the postings that were posted by Jared and he is indeed

JAVA JAZZ

okay so here we are arriving at the Java Jazz festival that took place on 7th of March 2009 in Jakarta Convention Centre which start at 7:30 and not sharp lol.

hehe so happy to see concerts....though at first i was not really into this concert because i was not really into jazz songs though have no offence against it...




however, after paying for the tickets (to my sis the provider haha) i decided to enjoy it even though the main guy that we are going to see Mr. Jason Mraz is not really my big idol either..haha but i do like his songs though because i think that his lyrics are very very inspiring...=) and indeed, it was a great show given by Jason, because he was so comical and entertaining that i find myself amused by his funny action and fast way of singing...even though it is not easy to follow when i sing along with him....lol lol lol but he is really really a very funny person....with his lanky slim figure and fedora hat, bringing a guitar and dressed in casual white shirt and black pants. he looks so damn funny and as i said casual...haha


so at about 7:30 plus plus plus, he began singing his tongue-twister song entitled 'Dynamo of Volition' as a starter which caused the whole crowd to cheer in response. I like this song immediately, though i dont really know what he is singing about haha...but the tune of the song and his action of raising both hands in the air as he sang the chorus part of 'good job get em up way high gimme gimme that high five...' made the whole opening very catchy and entertaining. =)









then coming up next as he sang all his other songs like 'Live is Wondeful' (which is another good songs with beautiful meaning), 'Clockwatching', Live High', 'Only human', 'Make it Mine' as well as the most wanted, most waited and most sing-along song for the night which was also his most well known song to everyone 'Lucky' and 'I'm Yours' i found myself diluting into the sensation more and more...but of course most of all what i like most from his concert was his wonderful lyrics (because i dont really know his songs haha and thus just heard it that night and listened to every words he sang attentively) and his beautiful voice that was being produced out of the loud speaker.






Damn he really got a good voice!




But well most of all what i wanted to say here is the most UNEXPECTED EXPERIENCED that we never thought would ever happened to us---THE FORTUNATE THING THAT BEFALL US.

which was the time when Jason threw out things to the crowd, which was the polaroid that he took on his own. and TO OUR GREATEST SURPRISE, THE CRAZY POLAROID FLEW IT'S WAY DIRECTLY TO US AND FLOP. SNAPPED ON MY SISTER'S FACE AND LANDED IN HER HANDS...KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!


i'm telling you, the crowds around us was like crazy searching for it on the floor as they pushed their way here and there...obviously they could find nothing. lol

and with that haha we all went back home grinning and laughing non-stop from ear to ear haha

it was really a crazy thing that ever happen to us throughout our concert experience...

damn can u believe it, Jason Mraz polaroid picture of himself, posing wildly...haha

and with that let me share the pleasure of showing the cool thing to you all...





TADA!!!!!!! HAHAHA CAN U BELIEVE IT THAT'S OUR MR A TO Z SINGER JASON MRAZ.
cool? cool? cool? cool right sure it does...haha though i wasnt i a big fan...lol but it is still a good luck to get such a thing from a great singer =)


when else can one get so lucky. haha


then next because of that, we(my sisters, my cousin and i) were spared from all the scoldings from the elders as we proudly showed around this cool singer to them. haha


thanks Jason you help save the day ;D


and then with 'Butterfly' as his last song, he decided to call it a day.


Next is the photos that we took at home after the concert =)




haha yeah so you know this is me as always with my stupid happy face haha posing like a mad kid with Jason Mraz polaroid on my hand and the Rp40000 Java Jazz shirt that i doubled on top of my Little Miss Giggle tee-shirt. haha (damn hot lor the kitchen i tell you haha )


and that is my sis with her happy laugh upon receiving her favourite Idol. haha




my big sis who is the money provider haha as well as the lucky woman who took the picture haha credit to her ... A LOT OF CREDIT.












Buhuhuhu and this is my cousin who helped to take the pictures of the Jason Mraz live action at the top of the post...uhhhh despite of the pushing and buffeting around...haha a tough girl indeed...lol but neway tanks to her too...

for putting this pictures all in her face book and make the size smaller so that it can be fitted here...haha yeah yeah yeah so BIG TANKS TO U LADY!!!!



YEAH SO LAST BUT NOT LEAST THIS IS US POSING WILDLY AND HAPPILY DESPITE OF THE HOT KITCHEN AT MY COUSIN'S HOUSE HAHA
while the elders were chatting endlessly outside in the living room =)
lol with this come to an end, i would like to thanks everyone once again for the fun fun fun experience and to our chauffeur Pak Udin who drove us to the place where the concert was being held and sent us home safe and sound...haha
and OF COURSE thanks a million to MR JASON MRAZ FOR THE CUTE POLAROID. YOU MAKE US GO CRAZY MAN!!! AND THANK YOU FOR PUTTING SUCH A ''GOOD JOB'' FOR THE SHOW!!!!
HOPE TO SEE YOU BACK AGAIN TO MY HOMETOWN AND HOPE U LIKE YOUR STAY THERE MISTER =9

goodbye
take care now bye bye then
the time now is 3:05a.m. damn i got to sleep and give my precious eyes a break
bye bye
God bless and good night/ good morning.

Yuliana a.k.a me =)

snap snap snap

Just came back from Church listening to a workshop about being a good mentor.
its a nice workshop and i really learn a lot from that....
and to think of it, i tink my mission to make a disciple is not going to be easy...haha

currently, still with my make up on
listening to N.E.R.D---Lovebomb a nice funk music....haha and just cant believe it that i will be watching pharell soon...
gee..a lot of concerts so happy!!!!
LOVE CONCERTS!!!! though i dont love the scolding and pocket hol-ing hahaha...
but enjoy enjoy haha

here i am not just blabbering about nothing but concerts haha
but just want to continue on my posting about my trip in Indonesia...haha
the hometown i had 'abandoned' for a year. haha




yeah so this is the common electric cable-line that is an everyday scenery in Indonesia...haha i dont know why, but i find myself fancied by this thing that line the 'sky' lol lol lol and this picture i took during the late afternoon on my second last day in Indonesia, which my sis, cousin and i decided to take it as a photo taking session...haha










Next is this picture of someone or rather well, a construction worker who was fixing something on top of the building that he was building up. and well, actually i was focusing on him and his bravery action on climbing on such a tall building with no fear...haha and little did i thought that his combination with the evening clouds just look so cool. and with the lights that was shinning on his body, he was being silhouetted; making the whole appearance even more beautiful.











Next is the scenery like all other beautiful sunset scenery that i had posted previously. Yeah so once again i was posting this beautiful scenery of the sunset in Pantai Indah Kapuk(PIK) the house complex that i was living. The idea of the coconut trees lining the side of the road and the lamp post accompanying it was just so cool that i find it hard to miss. =) and next was this beautiful random scenery of the sun setting behind the mystic clouded sky. It was so bright in the afternoon that in the camera the surrounding became darkened. SEXY!!!!! looked at how round and sexy the sun is.









Next is the picture of this statue of someone playing golf. haha yeah this statue i took at the back of the house complex. At the Mediterania's Golf club. a very beautifully crafted statue with the grand altar and pillars surrounding it as well as the fountain that added the grandness of it. =) i really like this statue a lot...haha especially the engrafted pillars and the top of the altar. the details so cool!!!! =)
and the other one is just the whole look out of the location...hehe cool eh they made it in the sense that one think they are having their roman holidays...haha


Somemore random pictures that we took before have a refreshing moment with Indomilk haha and Kue Leket for my cousin, Miss Nathalia hahaha











yeah so this is a bird-house like little wooden house that i saw and snapped on my way around the housing complex, on an empty ground....=)










and this is a street eating house that usually took place on the side of the road, made by building a small cozy tent that is enough to contain some people like perhaps 10 or more, i dont know, with the shop owner stacking, displaying his cutleries and plates on one table while the customers waited to be served...haha there are some of such eating house that are bigger than this and the customers had to wait outside the 'restaurant' to be ushered for a seat.



haha and last but not least is this cozy 'home' of all the security guard in my housing complex PIK. haha of course if the security guard is in a group they are provided with a bigger shelter with even small television and a fan inside hahaha but if only alone, those patrolling around, haha ya this is where they shelter themselves from the sun and rain. (hehe quite adorable eh)


okay, thats all about the snapshot that i took...hehehe hope u like it...and have a rough sketch about Indonesia..

really hoping to show you more about Indonesia actually haha yeah not say as to show off lol lol just that i feel that its been some time since the last time i fall in love with my country so much..haha and thus on this trip, in decided to make the effort the snap down all sorts of things that had exists all these while just that had been forgotten overtime...

yeah so with this, i feel glad that i manage to show some little part of my hometown to all of you...lol lol lol and i really like the sunset there...lol

because the house complexs where i live is near the sea and thus each time the sun is setting down, the scenery always takes my breath away.

hehe so i guess there will be more sun set pictures that i'm going to release over time.

funny how the sun always set in a marvelous way each time it has to set haha

but anyway, hehe it is a great fun i had there in Indonesia...apart from eating and gaining weight, haha i even enjoy the pleasure of being served and treated like a queen lol lol lol

plus, being squashed once again by the crowd when listening to Jason Mraz Live in action.Not a big fans though, but i really adore his lyrics and his voice when he sings live.

well okay, so very hungry now...lol lol i got to go and have some food =) nice.

Take Care everyone and bye bye

before being joined by my sis to take a proper picture. (the sun setting effect is sexy haha )

indo food

YEEHAAAA!!!!!
just came back a few hours ago from my hometown which i left
for about a year...
haha and indeed, there has been a lot of things that i missed out...
somethings that made me somewhat look kind of like a dumb dumb in my own country...
hahaha embarrassing isnt it...

but i really like the idea of being back in where i used to be though maybe not for a long time...haha it can be kind of stressful too with no friends there =p
but well, going back there...


my stomach turn into a rubber band and i eat and eat and eat and eat...almost like every minutes of the day haha
can be said i ate more than 3 times there...
haha and so it is obvious if i gained weight...haaha

time to work out...


well anyway, where should i start
hmmmm nyam nyam nyam
i think i started with the food haha
since thats what lured me to gain weight when i was there haha


all the street food that i used to eat when i was a student there plus the various soups like the oxtail soup (sop buntut) and sayur asem (sweet and sour vegetable soup), then martabak (indonesian pancake) and sate padang hahaha










haha yeah so this is the picture of satay Padang (padang is the name of one of the city in Indonesia) first ate it when i went to my mom's hometown in Medan, which was another part of Indonesia...and i got addicted to it...haha








asik deh...too crazy for martabak,i even videoed the man who was in the process of making it...haha
















where by first he cooked the flour, then he spread some margarine, before adding in with grated cheese or chocolate then add fermented milk before he folded the pancake into half and cut it into cubic sizes and spread the top the pancake with somemore margarine to make it even more tasty...haha (prepare to get fat)


i always stood there and enjoying the way the man was making until the man laughed at me the moment he saw me there...haaha i think he knows who i am by now...because i always stood there..and each time i came, he was always the same guy who did the job...lol.
i have the video with me haha and im happy i got it...






























krupuk ikan (fish cracker) is a favourite cracker in some indonesian food, haha and till now it is still a fav. to all kids even adults haha...and nowadays it can be more difficult to find except on some restaurant or small provision shop.



this is ice chendol...haha refreshing =) never really been






in love with this one






just that been sometimes and i missed it






eventually...haha










this is kue ape and kue leket the most commonly eaten street food by kids and it is usually sold outside the school gate or the church gate...haha

























there are still a lot more others..and i think the blog wont be enough to contain it all..but well, hope u do enjoy it...
gee...and feel free to make a trip to indonesia...haha
and try it on your own...=)

alright, thats all for the things about food...haha

once again hope you enjoy and have fun reading =)
thank you for your time and kind attention =)

vintage

gee...been sometimes since the last time i faced up with a black out...
and this time which was exactly yesterday...haha when i faced up with a black out
i found myself enjoying it...lol lol lol
seems like its been sometime since the last time i faces a black out...
which caused not only the weather at home to get even hotter...
but also me unable to do my morning rituals...

so the time i woke up i was playing a while with the blogging thing
before zoom..the lights turn off...
haha leaving the house in semi darkness and total darkness on some rooms like bathrooms
especially...
and leaving the tap water running out with nothing but an occassional drip of magic water...
i was left sleepy and sloppy for a few minutes, before i reminded of the 1500 ml of water in the water bottle that was usually place beside my sink. used at times like this...haha then i decided to brush my teeth with that...lol yeah thats what one can only do with 1500 ml of water...lol brush teeth and wash ur hands for a while...lol lol including washing the toothbrush that was coated with used toothpaste.

haha it sounds wat the hell but its true...and that makes me realised how precious water is in our lives...
and call me mad, but when i felt that cold water on my the back of my hand, i was more than overjoyed to be awaken by the touch of cold water haha.
then as i walked out to the front yard and see my mom transferring one pail by one pail of water to another bigger pail to contain the water, it reminds me how first, how difficult life is without electricity. and second, made me think bakc about the time when we were more difficult than we were now, and lived in a more 'rundown' area...and often faced up with black out...
which we eventually got used to it,and even able to walk in the dark without holding a torch light or the dimly lit candle light...hahaha (it can happen for hours)
i used to do homework in the dark too or under the dimly lit candle light...haha which obviously cause my handwritting to be 'very beautiful' hahahaha (good luck to the teachers lol )

and now that i am older, i realised the reason why last time, when we were young and dont think that black out is a big deal except that we have to bear with the heat and sleep without air con...my parents used to get so anxious about it. they will try to store up as many pails of water as possible, lit as many lights as possible etc. haha because indeed for adults, it is so damn annoying, and inconvinient. imagine you are bathing half way and the whole tap was off together with the lights...lol standing in a cold darkness...or peeing half way and find yourself locked in the bathroom because u cant open the door. lol lol dangerous...
and so, yesterday in the semi darkness of my living room i stood not only reminiscing about the past but also praying for the black out to be over. plus, for me to treassure every sources like gold. never take things for granted. lol

however, the hellish moment lasted for half and hour, (before it continue again after an hour of light, and in the end caused me to go over to my cousin house to borrow a bathroom lol lol because of the shortage of water lol lol ) and the time when the light turn on haha i was more than glad to be able to see the lights again as the lights sparkles on like magic...trang tranggggg!!!!

well anyway, i do enjoy the black out though...haha
but of course i dont wish for it to last for a long long time....lol lol the heat can make one feel burn out of the mood...lol lol

okay that's all for today... =)
