haven't done much to send applications tis week, etc, etc, n it's friday again.. gosh, time passed by quickly, bit sad. got to review schedules n get rid of time stealers.
Thurs, 26 Feb
stands moved to roundhouse, still raining, perhaps better than past two days, since tues' one was not much that could be done, water dripping inside, ppl queiting down, and wed's one didn't get a proper stand. only stayed for a while, good to have rev joni and joe mock to accompany others (yossie, lyd, mimien, monnie, irmo, ken).
thought of giving myself a rest, doing some exercises. went to han's place, with amel, swam for a while, need to practise more, slowly improving, felt bit sick of the kaporit, enjoyed spa more, had dinner together, panda's peking duck, followed with The Passion of Christ @ eastgarden, watched together with several other peeps. gosh, dev is back, finally, several peeps have been waiting upon to collect reimbursement for reciepts, now got a person to refer to.. ffuihh.. as if am a debtor!
arghh.. my mobile, what did u do to it mel.. told u to give it to me last nite, hmn.. a bit worried that u might do an illegal 'operation' inside. got ur sweater with me, will make sure that we swap fairly later. btw, it smelt like parfume, yours or jerry's? eeuyyss.. don't like it, mel.
Wed, 25 Feb
was @ UTS, with vonny, tri, james, rev. joe mock joined for a while. stayed till 3.30 pm. stands are more proper than the ones in UNSW, with red carpet, nice labelling n lighting, and stronger frames. hmn.. hips are soaring, due to yesterday's standing longer than usual, no chairs, perhaps will need hips replacement surgery later, address invoice to church. what else, deep vein trombosis, varises.. scary.. gulp!
Tues, 24 Feb
raining, not good, ppl r quieting down. got oska, ling, mimien n yoppie as my company. mimien.. hmn, felt that all my energy are being sucked by her. help, am breathless, she isn't stop talking, an introvert vs extrovert internal battle, course she won, need to lock myself in room n recharge when am back. always enjoy her company tho, perhaps she qualifies to be one of my stress balls. wonder what's different inside her brain, extremely active verbally.

last valentine survey. some interesting ones, no need to regard as most ideal responses, but would be nice to note them, may not even be a collective representation of general opinions, all randomly picked to bring out some points.
girls' responses:
3 THINGS EXPECTED OF GUYS:
- "in God, humility, caring." --> =)
most responses fall on : maturity, kindness, faithful, intelligence, initiative to lead
CARING ABOUT OTHERS:
- "ramah sih.. walau kadang lebih ramah ma cewe cakep.. haha."
- "yup definitely.. caring si iya tp gg membingungkan: ada udang dibalik batu tidak?"
- "they care about the people that they already know!!"
- "cowo2 IPC cuek2, kecuali kalo ngejer."
- "suka cuek; kadang2 cewe lagi ngangkat barang dibiarin angkat sendiri."
hmn.. hmn..
guys' responses:
3 THINGS EXPECTED OF GIRLS:
- "loves God, loves being a girl, is curious about guys." --> smart geek
- "smile, hug, kiss." --> glek! most uncreative ones
most responses fall on : godliness, mature, attractive (character n appearance), submissive
IN A SENTENCE, WHAT DO YOU THINK A ROMANTIC GIRL IS: --> sorry, sound bit corny
- "she enjoys being looked after by a special guy." --> that smart geek again
- "ngapain romantis2?" --> hahha.. know who answered tis
WHAT IS YOUR DEFINITION OF LOVE:
- "deliberately doing what is best for other peoples' needs" --> 3 points to smart geek
disclaimer: due to its nature of un-representative-ness (hmn??), fairly agree or disagree is hopefully just a matter of personal opinions. tho it's not totally harmful to pay more attention for future references =)

pemuda's valentine celebration, running out of time, still got 2 more games to play. everyone's enjoying, many're discussing re the love languages with others, perhaps the message clicks. will have a read further of the book "The Five Love Languages", since didn't trust result of questionnaire, got too few questions, can't be a trusted indicator.
wait, guess will write slightly random opinion later re result of questionnaire on valentine's occasion. got all papers with me. notice one or two interesting ones. ok, let's scrutinize bit thru handwritting.

ladies, rejoice! the guys are making themselves available to attend coming mkc! weewee yip yippe skippy do dar.. wonder who'll be going. let God's words challange them to "stand firm and press forward". btw, grant thorp is the chairman for mkc tis year. and the speakers, ffuihh, perhaps the best combination u can get around!
tat andy, can someone make sure that he's really going with the crowd? hmn, he was asking for my permission if he could attend! ffuih felt so trusted a person! hihhi..
now that am letting him go, perhaps have a moral obligation toward sis. no worries, ce, will make sure tat his motive for going is truly.. (keep shining, keep smiling, knowing u can always count on me.. for sure =) ok, am lying.. actually he mistakenly sent me tat asking-for-permission email. was supposed to be addressed to sis. but since boys r boys, thing like tis happen sometimes. hmn, u guys r annoying, next time bef pressing 'send' button, pls make sure that address list has intended recipient. bah, tis isn't the first case.
am at unsw lib, was walking to coogee beach tis morning, plus browsing for units, tho not first intention, but since planning to move after getting pr, well, gotta browse around. oh yeah, am also looking for a roommate. anyway, was enjoying the walk so much, spent an hour in beach, bef having mcMuffin n head off. already spent 3 hours of morning. gotta do some groceries shopping afterward.

Tues, 10.02
was trying to find out re the information on how to book a stand for O Week (23 - 27 Feb) in UNSW's Casoc. itin has been helpful to accompany and provided a tour into unsw. managed to book for 3 days (Tues, Thurs, Fri) of stand hiring, though then, won't be a guarantee that stand will be allocated. pemuda is looking forward for an opportunity to invite new indonesian students who haven't joined any fellowships to find out more about IPCYF during coming O Week. more than 10 youths have been willing to help out in keeping the stand. tks God for the IPC youths. too late with UTS one, perhaps will only distribute leaflets on Wed of the O Week. Rev. Joe Mock is also looking forward to joining us.
hot. temp will be around 30 ups degrees until tis weekend. arrgghh..
2nd evening class, studying OT prophets, recently going thru Amos in quite a detail, also waiting on Daniel's one coming in march perhaps, since haven't divided one for program kerja with regard to daniel. huee.. will be just in time =) two classes went ok, quite enjoying since know very little bout prophets. promise myself not to do short essay, been turned off by the question that seems to lead no where how to answer it. huh.
rove live is back! lot of varieties as usual. feel like doing nothing after class, so, will be the usual portion to watch rove bef going to bed.
Sun, 08.02
to Darling Harbour, thought would enjoy the furniture fair, dragon boat racing n hulla. turned out to be dreadfully boring, besides hot temp. (dehydrated, can't enjoy as much), also cancelled out on furniture fair since not free =) also the hulla, nothing exciting at all, happened to be a small team performing some boring hawaian music (perhaps older ppl style) in a small amphiteathre in front of the harbour side plaza. got a chance tho to see the fancy candles making inside the plaza, at the candle palace aust. hmn.. wonder if the person felt as a 'zoo-attendant' being watched by ppl tat way =)
Sat, 07.02
after pemuda's dinner, being 'forced' (agree to at the first place =) to join for a 'girl' talk with mummy sianty (or mommy, ops, thought tat mummy is the egyptian's heritage, hehhe) who are very excited in thinking of possible names for coming baby dues somewhere in june, plus some other issues in relationship as side discussions. honestly didn't follow as much, due to ears bit 'deaf'. others seems to be quite excited in following (sian, rose, irmo, lyd). o well, fine, am not much less a woman bec of tis, hahha.

after church & bakmi ayam jakarta (3 days of noodles in a row!! am quite sure they'd do very well to untangle themselves since got premature metabolism process), off to Travel Expo in Darling Harbour, with rose. grabbed lots of junks full of travel information, haven't browsed thru them, sometime when have time to.. (and some budgets for travelling, vision for next 2 years =) currently have no capacity in deciding among asterix, boy meets girl's cassettes, .NET, (swimming or guitar, forget it), job & job.. (information overload).
hot temp. slept whole day after got back, still slept soundly at nite (hmn, laziness or mere pleasure? same thing.. durr..)
Sat, 31.01
