last wednesday nite, we had dinner at beppu in plaza ex.
we ate ramen, but it was just ok , i wasn't too crazy about the noodle.
but i love the green tea milkshake , that's the recommended one.

yesterday, on the way to the office, i took pictures while driving .
only in jakarta you can driving, taking pictures, reading a novel, daydreaming, and playing basketball at the same time *the baskelball part is a big lie of course*.

the result of the pictures are disaster , it's just not recommended to drive and taking pictures at the
 
same time. it's dangerous and most of the time you only get blurred images. but it's kind of fun . people from the next car stared at me like i'm a weirdo , but i don't care.

i'll do it again sometimes and will upload the pictures i like in my blog

i ran out of books to read.
it's scary!!!

i heard books in QB in plaza semanggi are on sale .
yesterday, on lunch time i went there, and it was really on sale!
on the way home, i got these books with me:

the miracle life of edgar mint - brady udall
the amateur marriage - anne tyler

i was going to buy more books but i remember i just ordered some books from a friend who's in india now. books are so cheap there. only 1/3 price of the price here .

last week, after the office, i dropped by at al haya in dharmawangsa area.
al haya means 'life' in arabic *somehow it's similar to my name *.

i've never been there before and i know about the place from a magazine. it's an islamic bookshop with cafe. a nice place in a nice neighborhood. too bad they only sell islamic books there.

him: the subtitle in dvd is so funny, they even write down something like 'the sound of window opens' or 'wind blows'.

me: maybe because they want the deaf people to enjoy the movie too.

him: i wonder how's the movie for the blinds.

since i claimed bali as one of my home, i visit bali blog frequently.
yesterday i found from here this interesting posting about history:

Ambon and Banda are part of what used to be called 'the Spice Islands'. They are what Christopher Columbus was searching for when he found America. Columbus's mandate was to find the islands where mace, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg were from. He had a box filled with these and would ask natives if their island grew these. On his voyages to the Americas natives would say' No we don't have that here, but maybe on the next island.' He never found the Spice Islands, as he was completely on the wrong side of the World.

well, i know columbus looked for the spice islands, but i didn't know he got samples to show to the local .

we went to see ice age: the meltdown last weekend!!
i falled in love with scrat the squirrel in the previous ice age *when was it? 2002?*
he still keep trying to get the acorn. never give up. and the scene is really memorable and brought a lot of laugh for me.
the other characters were not bad either. especially the possums.

  one thing about the movie, i was so curious about the voice of the manny (the mammoth) . i'm sure i know the voice really well but couldn't figure it out whose voice it is. i waited until the end of the movie for the credit title and it's ray romano from everybody loves raymond!

when i saw boulevard de clichy, the new book from remy sylado in a bookshop, my first impression was: it's so expensive .

yupe, it's more expensive than the average of indonesian books.
i hesistated to buy it but then i remember, everytime i read something from remy sylado, it gives me more than
 
just something to read, i learned about cultures, languages, history, philosophy, etc. and most of the knowledge i got is a unique ones. not that something i can find in other books .

the book is thick (almost 700 pages) and it took me a couple of days to finish it. most of the time, i read it on the airplane to and from kuala lumpur.
and yes, it's a good one . not as good as ca bau kan. but still worth to read it. it's about as good as parisj van java, his other book.

since i started my stupid career a couple years ago, i bumped up into some places, that i've never heard all my life before, that sound more fiction than real such as: bora-bora island, barbados, seychelles, mendocino, hoi an, etc etc.

when i was in KL, a proposal of project in kumgang was handed to me.
where the hell is kumgang??
north korea??
i'm not even sure they have embassy here in jakarta .
