It's a niece. I'm an uncle.

Guess what, well yesterday my family had a new member. My sister gave a birth to a lovely girl. Her name is Angelina Natalia Suryadjaja. Welcome to this world my dear. When my sister still in transit room, I got in with my brother in law. Guess what, the nurse asked us, which one was the husband? What a fool question. It's obvious that I'm much younger than my sister and my brother in law. That's weird

Continent Disaster

Well, it's not just a national disaster. I reckon that over 50 thousand people were killed during the turmoil of tsunami last Monday. It's not just about the dead numbers. It's about the aftermath. I think the survivors would be a lot worse because it could have been a plague or no food for them. I really hope the things would be better really soon.

I'm dissapointed

I can't keep up the pace. Is it ignorant? I don't know

In & Out

"First I was afraid I was petrified."


Just a little line from song 'I Will Survive'. Well apparently it was successful for Howard. Is it really a gay song? I still don't understand the point. Well, maybe if I get all the line, I might do.

Y Tu Mamá También

Director Alfonso Cuaron had brought me to a lusty world of Mexican adolescence. How free sex has been very common in their life? How they can think that they want to trick her as she the one who tricked them? What a marvelous execution! Both Gael and Diego had an excellent act though Maribel gave us her best.

Mambo Italiano

Angelo Barberini is the oddball son of Italian immigrants Gino and Maria, who inadvertently ended up in Canada rather than the States. Angelo shocks his parents by moving out on his own without getting married, and shocks them further still when he reveals that he's gay. But his boyfriend, policeman Nino Paventi isn't as ready to come out of the closet -- especially not to his busy body mother, Lina.

It's not democracy. It's family.

Mike's Point: 7,5/10

Km. 0 (Kilometer Zero)

The title refers to Madrid's central square (from which all distances within Spain are measured). Zero may also describe the state of the lives of 14 strangers. The stories of these fourteen collide at this meeting point on a sultry August afternoon. Mistaken identities and second chances are among the results of this comedy of errors featuring, among other characters, a horny & gay university student, an internet-love seeker flamenco dancer, a macho but lovelorn gigolo, an actress, and a businessman starved for new sexual experiences.

One Hell of A Ride

Last weekend, we went to Lembang, it's a small city northern of Bandung. We'd been planning this for days. Believe me or not we come there only to eat fried chicken. Anyway at that day there were a massive traffic jam, due to Dago Festival. It's a folk festival where there were band, stage, and stall. So the whole street was closed. We had to think which route we would have. After several turn we going a detour. This route was supposed to be not quiet dense with cars. So we took it, but in the middle of the trip, the rain started to fall. And guess what, it's a heavy one. The street almost cover with water. It was like in the theme park, with the ride 'Log Boat'. After a long journey (almost two hour; which was supposed to be only 45 minutes with the normal route) we arrived. So with a hasty mind, we order food. Me and my friend apparently ordered the same thing, assuming that it would come with a small portion. When the food came, we shocked. It was a large portion of chicken colon that we ordered. The restaurant didn't put the price in the menu. I thought it was overpriced. What a shame. Well, at the end I must said I'm not impressed by them.

Oprah in Africa: Christmas Kindness

Well, originally it was shown early 2004. The place was in South Africa. Oprah and her crews visited there to give several item as Christmas present to the child there. They stopped by in two states. One of them is the place with many HIV positive parents. It was a great show. It had enriched me a lot. I still feel the pain in most of the child. It really moved my heart. I think I even shed a tear. Bless you Oprah with so many grace to pass it on other child.

It's so funny

Check this out. It was so hilarious. I'm Laughing Out Loud Rolling on The Floor. (LOLROTF)
Does glibido, osteopornosis, innoculatte, or ignoranus mean anything to you? You should check it out yourself. It's a little witty but you should understand the meaning if you have lots of imagination. :)

A compliment to my generous friend. He is witty too. :p.

Two days ago, I just come back from a lake. It was fun. We had an inauguration of our college new choir member. We had laugh there. In the morning I had chicken porridge. Yesterday I went to college at 7 am. Apparently the lecture was delayed until today. So it was nothing there. What a waste! I should have been sleeping at that time. :) Well, hope someone will email me or online today.

Samstag,11 Dezember 2004

Yesterday was quiet a hectic day. Me and my friend went around the city. First we ate lunch somewhere in almost two pm. Yes it's not a lunch time anymore, nonetheless we were hungry. Next pick up another one then went to DVD seller. I think we had been losing our control back then. It was a massive shopping. Almost more than 30 DVD were bought by us. Imagine. What a day. Next stop is a Hypermart called Carrefour. We spent quite long time there too. Anyway last stop is a noddle restaurant. Quite nice, haven't been there for some time. Today another hectic day will be upon me.

A Home at The End of The World

From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of "The Hours" comes a story that chronicles a dozen years in the lives of two best friends who couldn't be more different. From suburban Cleveland in the 60s, to New York City in the 80s, where they meet an older woman, the film charts a journey of trials, triumphs, loves and losses. Now the question is: can they navigate the unusual triangle they've created and hold their friendship together?

Family can be whatever you want it to be.

Yesterday I went with my high school friend. We went to buy DVD, scan a certificate, and eat. I bought several DVD with one themed. It was quite good. One of them is the best for me for the moment. Tomorrow I will sing with my choir in a banquet. I hope it will go well.

I don't believe in coincidence. These days, I believe in miracles.

Latter Days

Christian, a hunky, 20-something, West Hollywood party boy gets more than he bargains for when he tries to seduce 19-year-old Elder Aaron Davis, a sexually confused Mormon missionary who moves into his apartment complex. When Christian exposes Davis' secret sexual desire, Davis rejects Christian for being shallow and empty, The encounter shatters each boy's reality and draws the two into a passionate romance that risks destroying their lives. Latter Days is a charming, sexy, and moving tale that will leave you believing in the transformational power of love.

Aaron prays, Christian plays ............... Opposites attract

Today the electricity in my house was off. It began at 11 o'clock, and at the time I left it at four it still off. I'm not sure about this country, whether we are going to have a ration in electricity or we are finally broke. Let hope that nothing has happened. The choir centre has been moved to a smaller place. It was very hot. Maybe we should wait until the new centre was built and we can finally move to a bigger one.
