finally i shall get down to bussiness, BLoGGIN BOUT INDONESIA. i'm currently sitting in a tutorial room waiting for lecture to start, suppose to b studyin since i'm returnin to m'sia o sat, but screw it, decided to blog instead, will make up for it tonite...
okie, here's the scoop ya, 1st day was not all it was cracked up to be, my flight wuz at 2.30pm, so my family left home bout 12.00 noon, headed to the airport, throughout the whole car ride i got lovely smses from my mates bidding me farewell, oddly none of the clan other than dawn called me to say bye bye, at that pt, i knew they were gonna show up at the airport(lovely friends i have). then arrived at the airport n waited for my agent, at that point i had my 1st encounter wif my batchmates from the same agent... there was Willam Yap, Navaneethan and Mageswari(nice ppl, really nice, no i take it back, mages is nice, the other 2, u shall understand later as i unfold the rest of my life in jogja)..
true enough my friends showed up at the airport. I was kinda shocked to c so many ppl, more shockin, justin brought his lovely girlfriend, so nice of him to finally intro us(thats wat good friends do k). we ate, laughed, took loads of pics, chit chatted, all this while my dad waited in line to check me n him in... heheh, sorry daddy... newayz, it was a teary goodbye on my mother's end, i was numb, so i didn cry. we did manage to steal in a few more shots juz as i was bout to enter boarding area. sorry mummy, i love u, but somethings juz doesnt get me tearing.
apparently after i left, my mum triggered a chain reaction n made shee wuee cry. After that, i entered the boarding area, lugging my extremely overweight baggage, due to excessive packin(lets juz say the size of my luggages scared the boys n made mages happy that she didn have the biggest bag). thank god my dad came along to indo. it was my 1st time in LCCT so i was kinda shocked to c how simple the boarding area looked, while waiting to board the 4 of us introed ourselves to each other, while my dad took his time to slaughter my agents with his anger due to their poor management skills. it was kinda weird in the beginning coz i was the only one hu had a parent chaperone whilst the others were on their own.... fine, my dad is overprotective!!!NUFF SAID...
okie, it was a tiring 2.30hour plane ride(my 1st time on air asia). sat seperated from the rest on the plane, coz its on 1st come 1st served basis, but i'm sure every1 else in m'sia knew bout this b4 me... JOGJAKARTA, INDONESIA was the destination. n there's time difference, i gained an hour when i traveled to jogja. one the plane there were a huge bunch of students, really noisy, didn noe hu they were or where they were from(little did i noe, not knowing that info would come haunting a few weeks later during orientation, dun worry, u'll understand later).
we landed, checked out n were greeted my Ms.Kiki, our liason from the uni, very nice lady. they loaded all of us into a van n used a separate mini lorry to transport our baggage(juz imagine, juz 4 students n they needed a mini lorry for our luggage, scary eh).... we reached the hostel, i got out of the van wif a cramped leg, due to the awkward position i was sitting in the van. the first thing i saw when i reached was this sign that said "COWOK DILARANG MASUK", which means no boys allowed. i took a good look around of the outside of the hostel then i went in, the place basically looked like a dump(honest words) they were still during renovation, refurbishing n all that crap. it was bloody annoyin to imagine living here for a year. then they showed us to our mages n i to our temporary rooms coz our actual rooms were undergoing cleaning. i was so totally upset when i saw the room, it looked dead n was practically the size of a large closet... tiny ppl, tiny... i will show y'all pics soon. it had a tiny tiny attached bathroom which barely had room to move in. n the toilet, the toilet ladies n gentlemen was a piece of artwork la, no flush!!!! can u believe it, this bloody developing country had no flushes in most of its toilets... its juz the basic elevated bowl. Sad case... all i wanted at that point was to go home, i missed home so much, i sat in that tiny room n moped, juz moped. i cudn call home coz my phone has no international roaming n my dad was at his hotel room so i cudn use his phone either.... at that pt, i basically hated indo.... then nite came n we got ready to go out for dinner, coz it was our agents job to get us aquinted wif jogjakarta n its surroundings.... okie, b4 i go on, let me give u a crash course on bahasa indonesia 101...
free:gratis can:bisa
boy:cowok when:kapan
girl:cewek holiday:libur
man/guy:mas lecturer/tutor:dosen
woman/lady:mbak hello: kemana mas/mbak
mr:bapa
ms/mrs/miss:ibu
elderly man: pak
no:ngak
need:butuh
speak:ngomom
tired:capek
thats juz the basics of basics la, there's so much more, n gets harder coz they speak at the speed of light, u tot m'sian r fast, u shud try speakin indo to an indonesia, its like a debater getting her/his ass kicked twice down south....
newayz, b4 dinner, the caretaker showed mages n i a couple of rooms for us to choose from, we got dibs coz we were the 1st to arrive(yay)...1st they showed us 2 rooms in the lower ground floor, moderate size, very cooling, adequate... then 1 room in the 1st floor, extremely tiny, pathetic location, in adequate... then finally showed us one room in tha balcony, huge ass room, excellent accesibility, rite at the balcony near clothes drying and washing area.... so mages n i were like, u only have one of these rooms? mas says, 'iya'... then he gave us till the end of the nite to decide.. we went for dinner n during dinner she asks me, so have u decided, n in my head i was thinking, is there much to think bout? obviously both of us wanted the big ass room... we were in such a dilemma, neither knew hoe to resolve the matter, even the boys were laughin at our dillema(not funny)... boys had perfectly new rooms with pretty bathrooms n everythin, it was newly built... so finally my dad says, 'let luck have its way, y dun u flip a coin?'

okie, now bout my other farewell. thrown by my collmates...
well, basically it wuz awesome... yeekuan,xian,adrian n tuckseng showed up at my hse. unfortunately,chay had no transport,jin was at NS, noel had church, mic had a meeting 2 attend n the rest went back hometown...
it started with me goin to pyramid to fetch the 3 of them (adrian wuz already in the car) n we did some shoppin, the theme of the nite wuz 'steamboat'. so when adrian n i walked into pyramid n ran into a few U13 juniors, louis ling n friends(everytime i c louis, i c how diff he n justin r). newayz, those boys were there shoppin for tkd dinner that evening... after a little chit chat we went to meet the 3 stooges... after shopping, we went back to myplace n set up the table for steamboat... we bought a lot of food.A LOT..... n it was fun setting up coz there was so much tension between two ppl in the room.. when 1 was in the living room, the other was in the kitchen n vice versa. i'm not gonna mention any names (hint:they have higher levels of testosterone than me), still not mentioning any names(hint:stop prying la, i'm not gonna say). so after a long time unpacking, cutting meat n vege, setting table, boiling water, we FINALLY settled down to eat. we talked n laughed n made jokes n gossipped.. it was so much fun n the food was so good....
halfway thru, we decided to watch a movie, i cant remember the title but i remember the story, it was bout mutant killer dogs, hmm... excellent farewell movie. xian was not a fan, so she tried not to watch, but she cudn help it... n it was rather funny to watch xian n yk quiver. adrian n i kept makin fun of xian coz her dog n the ones in the movie were the same breed(german shepards).... then during the climax, yk potong steam, i mean interrupted n said she had sumthin to show me...
she connected her comp to my laptop n played a cd.... it was cd bout my life with them n a levels in sunway.... i was so totally crying inside. it was one of the single most sweetest thing sum1 has ever done for me... it was funny n sweet, i cud c the changes n how i morphed in 1 n a half years.... superb editing skills to make me seem pleasant... then they ended the nite by giving me a cute fish coinbox n a mug from michelle. i loved the mug n the coin box... we sadly parted ways n i promised them to keep in touch.. once the left, i sat alone in my hall. reminiscing n playing with my fish coinbox. then i managed to get it open, n pieces of monopoly paper money fell out..... i opened the folded 'mone' one by one... only to discover, each one had a message from all my friends.... i was shocked... they all took the time to write sumthi for me... i truly do have the sweetest friends n i hope to nvr lose their friendship.... talk bout sentimental huh... now, all i wanna say is THANK YOU N I LOVE Y'ALL....

watch out for my next post, its where i finally crap bout indo... more crap comin your way....

THANK YOU...
then after the food came 'time-to torture-theleavin-girl!!'... haih, the evil things u ppl made me do, spelling with my ass, singing, guessing stuff n the WORSE... dancing.... omg.... u guys know i cant dance rite?? did it not strike u as odd, that i wasnt moving much... well,, its coz i CANT DANCE!!!. remember this fact k....
okie, i have 20mins till skills starts, plus i gotta go collect my new kit, so i'll hurry up...

Hello ppl, okie here's where i continue the previous post. i'm in the same cyber cafe, but this time on my lappie la, so its a bit better....
anywayz...
boon started running out the room n i chased after her, i chased her cause
1. i wanted to know wat wuz in the book(i cant stand ppl leavin me hangin)
2.i REALLY wanted to noe wat wuz in the book
3.i had a feeling it wuz bout my farewell.
4.i've nvr seen that book b4, boon's nvr mentioned it
5.boon has nothin to hide, she's too carefree to care bout secrets(which is realgood)
6.ITS BOON!!!
so, i cudn wait to open the book, so chased her thru the whole upstairs of the house, we were running n screamin. i called her a secretkeeper n she called me paranoid. the chase ended when boon rann into her brothers' room n shoved the book down her sleepin bro's tshirt. he didn even noe she did dat, he wuz fast asleep... haih, i cudn possibly retrieve the book so i gave up n we went back to her room, i gave her the guilt trip for hiding something from me then finally she told me, she said, "okay la, okay la, its for ur farewell k". i said,"ooo, really? cool, but u didn have to(bt secretly i wuz laughin on the inside, coz, its so clan of them to do sumthin like dat la). then boon said,:yea rite, u knew it wuz comin!!". then she made me promise not to tell any1 i told her , coz they wud kill her, then she said the party cant b on a sat coz she will b workin on sat, but as far as i knew she didn work nites, but hey, didn think much of it, coz i have a habit of ACTUALLY TRUSTIN MY BEST FRIEND...
then the week went on, there were quite a few spoilers la, there wuz natlie hu kept sayin "hey its sunday rite its sunday sunday, i'll c u on SUNDAY", as i wuz bout to leave rooben' farewell party, then after dat she walked over to chris n said"she doesnt noe" as i wuz walkin away from the restaurant. hello ppl, i have sensitive hearin la, i can even hear termites munchin in wood, trust me, i speak the truth. then there wuz lixian hu asked me to keep my saturday free n kinda slipped my friends were throwin me a farewell n made me promise not to tell adrian she slipped it to me. then there wuz karmern hu put up a great act on9 while talkin to me, bout how the suprised wuz ruined coz i knew bout the party on sunday, she cursed n whined(she deserves a golden globe for her performance n u'll c y, shortly. finally, friday nite rolled around n then chris called me bout 7pm n said"hey hema(happytone) tomoro nite sleepover my place k, long time didn have sleepover d". then i said, "hmm sure no prob, shall i tell the rest?" then she said,"oh, no need, i settle everythin d, u juz have to show up". at that moment, i knew, i knew my party wuz satuday nite.hahaha, i noe christine, she does not SETTLE things, she nvr has n its juz not her, usually she juz shows up for sleepovers n brings food, usually the foodstuff she brings is made up of junk food n the type she likes n doesnt appeal to boon nor dawn. to be continued.....
