dear friends,
the date to celebrate our 10 years of friendship is the 20th of july-friday (but venue not confirmed. waiting to hear from ben)
any ideas as to how to commemorate this day?

dear everyone,

i got posted to Yoshinari Junior High School in Sendai City. And I saw pictures of my new apartment and it's very conveniently located near the city centre. I'm actually really psyched about going there but not very psyched about leaving ayufan in jakarta. plus he'll only visit me next year. shite. but well, gotta earn some moolah and stop feeding off my mom. to top it off, i just know it'll be a good experience. we're growing old-er, which ain't a bad thing.

so do drop by sendai city when you can! don't worry, my apartment's got enough space to fit another one (two, max). haha. love you all.
















i THINK my mum agreed to my dog!
Next next week driving down to the breeder's kennel to take a look! Here are the pics!! Thinking of reserving one for myself before i drive down in case they are gone!

All the puppies have pedigree papers! so no hereditary problems!

hey guys,i am in dubai now... too much free time on my hands cause it is too hot to go out here. it is like being in a microwave...i seriously think i can fry an egg in this heat. i took these pictures in vancouver while cycling at stanley park. this racoon over here loves to eat chocolates!

trees destroyed by the hurricane

a very strange looking tree






this is in fact a motherhuge lily pond




i love this picture that i took! good photography skills...














it is the law in vancouver to put on a helmet when riding a bicycle, so well... here goes...






































i am going on to istanbul after this... which suxs cause it is really dangerous there! so most probably i can't go far, only around the hotel area. and i don't even dare to whip out my camera. hope everyone is doing fine. love to see you guys soon! i am coming back on sunday!

Its interesting to observe the many different needs of people from all backgrounds. Sometimes i wonder how people's minds work

There are those who think only of putting food on the table
Then there are those who are thinking of what food to put on the table
Some might wonder what table the food is put on
The novelty of having table cloths and carpets under the table may intrigue some
Then of course there are the people who buy a room for the table

computers are obsolete,
vehicles thread through air,
pills exist to remove the need for sleep and rest,
medicine is readily available for eternal life,
knowledge can be uploaded into your brain via needles,
irritating people can be muted by deactivating ones ears,

aliens eat on the same tables as us,
animals can talk after evolution,
superman will exist,
