Hey gorgeous...

This time around the story a bit local, but still pretty good experience for
me. Last night, I was visiting one of my relative  and we had a long chat
and all and she gave me some encouragement to stay a bit longer this time
around. She think it would be fun to stay for abit. So I had been trying to
get Angela's visa organise so we can stay a bit longer. And you know what ?? by 24th of November 2004, we shall know if our application get accepted. If we do, well, me and Angela going to give it a try, staying in Indo for 1 year !! Can you believe that ????????? I reckon that would be just awesome !! and you gotta come and see us !! :)))

After the visit, me, angela, my nephew and my sister went to the local food place and had dinner there, and it was awesome. Why ? well, it was not fancy restaurant at all, this is just some stall on the side of the road with awesome food, I had some soup and it was just the perfect taste of Asian soup.... yum yum... the beauty of it is.. its so basic you can just chilling there and no one would worry about your table manner and it was so cheap ! can't believe it.
Then we dropped the kids home, my sister and I was going to go to the local mall to get couple of stuffs there but,alas!, it was closed ! so , rather
then just went home we were being rather adventurous =p~, so we went to the night market nearby.... you should've seen the place ! Everything and anything was there, from toothpick to clothing , mp3 and all. There weren't any life animal being sold there :D - anyway, so we went thru this market that made out of plastic tent for a roof and the goodies was being display non-fancily which was just on the bamboo bench, there was bags, clothing, whatever and whatever was there... all so cheap. I can't resist but trying to bargain. We got bag for my nephew, school bag, then I got myself some nighties and some mp3 discs. I am not sure whether that would work or not but it was good to bargain at the time and had a good laugh while doing it. The interaction between sellers and buyers just amazing, so friendly and was done quicker than the eye kinda transaction. No charm manners just money talk, it was fun.  My parent use to take me there when I was little and this night market still here now... and it was good to go there again with my sis and relive the lost time... it was one of the good memory with my daddy as a child. I am so lucky...

We got home pretty late, all the stalls was slowly closing... people were
lessen and start to head home, the road getting quiet... the wind was
cooling the humidity of the night. We were on the rickshaw - do u know what a rickshaw ? a 3 wheeled type of transportation that driven by a guy at the back and he paddle to make the rickshaw work. As we slowly on this balmy evening strolling along the almost empty road the breeze touches my face so peacefuly as if telling me that life is good and gave me comfort. I was so calm and enjoying the ride all the way home... seeing all this people and houses that we passed. My spirit soaring all the way to the sky and back..... thanking GOD for making my life so beautiful. Again my dear, I wish you were here... to see and experience this chaotic night market, crazy traffics... the mountain with its cold air that can kiss your soul and will never make you forget about it.
One of my wish is to bring you to this temple in Central Java and make you
touch the Buddha's Feet so you can tell him everything and make a wish.
Plus.. I really want to be on top of the temple , on the enlightenment level
with you... and show you the world from up there amongst the stupas...magical stupas.

One can just dream...
