I think I am about to get sick.
I am not sure if it is from eating too much sambal and other spicy lip smacking Indo food.. OR from drinking too much teh botol Sostro… OR the air pollution here from the traffic.. OR from the lack of rest.. OR for the fact I braved myself [...]

Street Urchins and Asian Beverly Hills
I would like to write more but I have less than half an hour left before this thing logs itself off.
Jakarta on the first day was spent in the the infamous macet ( traffic jam ), entertained by cab drivers’ tongue in cheek outlook to life in Indonesia, of a mad rush to find a [...]

Antara Anyir dan Jakarta
…. kita jatuh cinta..
So sang Sheila Majid.
So percicilan will be on rest for a little while with more traveling news one can use.
It’s off to the land of Sinetrons and Bakso and my favourite Teh Botol Sostro.
Jakarta and Surabaya, here we come … insya Allah :p

Immigration and Other Stuffs
I was at the Immigration Department today, to renew my visa for long term stay. The last time I was there was a year ago, where I was granted a 1 Year Visa, a sticker in my bright red passport which says I am allowed to stay in Malaysia for a year without any penalty, [...]

Just like him
Went to buy my outfit for Aikido class later. Our first class this evening. Given that the scales for me have tipped greatly to the other side of late, I have to admit, I look strangely but expectedly like him…

I know I find Kung Fu Panda cute. But to look like him [...]

Time after time

Moving on and learning
More or less, other than having to deal with a sick and clingy Milo post his brother’s death, I think I have come to terms ( a bit ) with Seuss‘ departure from us. Nevertheless, I still hold my breath each time I see Milo walking towards the gate. Like a deja-vu that I [...]

The Eulogy… In memory of Seuss
Dear Seuss,
We hope that you are resting in peace now in our garden. It seems only yesterday that we were cuddling you and having lots of fun with you, watching you and Milo wrestle. But today, you are gone.
I can never forget the sight of watching you get knocked down by the car right before [...]

10 People on my A-List
Rozas blogged about the ten people who inspired her and called for fellow bloggers to share who are the people who inspire us, one way or the other in our lives. So here is mine.
1. My Bapak
For his struggles, his personality, his selflessness, his sense of forgiveness, his firmness, his honesty, his relentlessness display of [...]

The Pensil Story
We had 13 relatives from my hometown as guests at our place yesterday. I had only 4 hours of sleep the previous night, ( cooking a hurricane ) feeding them a spread which they love, and that made me happy. And of course I was happy with their visit. I miss the ‘kecoh-kecoh’ of big [...]
