I fall down

Yesterday I was playing badminton with my high school friends. We played men double. After a while, I chased the shuttlecock right through the other court but my body couldn't control my balance and I fall down quite hard. It was really loud. Even the people who playing at the other court was mesmerized by my fall. A couple of second went by a silent. Not long until laugh broke almost everyone in that place. I was so embarrased. Until now, my knee is still hurt. I need a bandage.

Another impact of the tsunami

Apparently tsunami has brought lots of painful to lots of people. One of the people that has been effected by this is one of my favorite TV person. He often shows in The Oprah Show. He decorates people houses. His name is Nate Berkus. I like the show and it's one of Oprah theme that I like. I don't know how and where he's been at the tsunami disaster (I suspect in Phuket), but Thanks God, he's survived. Unfortunately his friend was still missing at the moment. I just hope that he will be founded soon.

My friend said that he was in Sri Lanka. I never known that Sri Lanka is quite well known for tourist location.

What is wrong with people who want to help?

Today I heard news that Indonesian parliament had a bad thought about a foreign soldier that were helping in tsunami place in Aceh. Why would they said something like that? I don't have idea if the aid was filled with political motivation. From what I have heard from others, they were helping much in the remote area and they are more decent in handling the corpse than our own volunteer. So why should they being judged with hidden agenda? I don't know what happened to them.

The italic one is the real winner. I only get 5 out of 24. It's a bad choice then. Hehehe.

Golden Globe and Oscar is near

It's already January, and the award season is quite near. I really hope everything would be well, maybe I will try to guess the winner later.

What happened to these people?

I'm sorry if it's too graphical to some people but I can't stand again. It's too bad that many people had taken advantage in other people misery. For example, few people insisted in going to Aceh just to take picture of themselves and show others that they've been there and do nothing. Isn't that sad? I think it's supposed to be someone who had the skill and ready to help the people. Not just a people who need publicity.

Other thing has brought up. It's adoption. Lots of people are willing to adopt the orphans, but it's really bring trauma to the people because it's not certain that their parents were dead or something. They also still have relatives. And the biggest concern is human traffic. It's really a bad time.

Another thing is the donation. Many people in around the country has a new activity now. They raised donation. I don't care if they do it in a proper way. But they do it while making traffic jam and it's not just about it, some people who like to perform in the street or bus has been making an excuse to raise fund for Aceh, while they do it for themselves.
