a recap
two freakin' weeks of no posts whatsoever.
god, no, i'm not gonna be one of those bloggers who irresponsibly just leave their blogs unnoticed—be it for a hiatus or for good. no, this blog isn't in a hiatus mood mode, just an i'm-sorry-i-have-been-very-busy-lately-i-haven't-got-the-time-to-do-something-with-it condition. go figure.
here's a thing: around a week ago, on my flight back (there you go)—or was it in the airport?—i had written some kind of a what's-up-with-my-life, uhm, should i say post, but stupid old me forgot to charge the notebook. so when the undesirable happened (read: the battery died), i lost my writing and went on strike at least until i settle down breathing the much-polluted air of my home city. as you can see, it doesn't really work that well.
but before i go any farther with that, maybe i should tell you what's what two weeks ago. that is, when i was still in canada.
july 1st: canada day. great, dazzling fireworks on victoria's inner harbour.
july 3rd: monique's wedding bash in vancouver. yes, she's married now and currently is in new york! i can't be more jealous. but her wedding was amazing, prolly because i helped arranging the hall, loading and unloading and messing things. (canda nique..) needless to say, she looked more beautiful—and happier—than ever. that ikhwan guy (read: the groom) is one damn lucky man, one thing for sure. best wishes for both of you in the future, alrighty nique? ;)
july 5th: the journey of the mind-exhausting, ass-numbing freakin' long flights started. the whole trip lasted for—gasp—30 and a half hours. it couldn't get any worse than that. until,
july 7th: jakarta.
that's where i'm writing now. and i still have six more weeks to spend my time here, in the gloomy, loveable old jakarta. and i think i have to spend it wisely. have a great day, folks.
