I'll be leaving for Jakarta on the 1st of December, while my parents'll be going to Mecca as Pilgrims on the 3rd. I can't wait! Although Jakarta ain't as advanced as many other holiday destinations, it has its charms, believe me, I've been there twice before, once in 2004 & once last year. The main thing there for me would be fishing & shopping, aside from basking in my uncle's pool in the backyard of his colossal bungalow. The untouched natural environment there is spectacular as well. If you visit the rural areas of the country, you'd find beauty as defined by nature. Although you'd have to be really cautious with what goes into your stomach there; such insanitary conditions are rather hostile to your insides.
I'll be spending a dozen days in the country, roaming megamalls 5 times the size of even the biggest malls we have here & admiring the beauty nature has to offer around the countryside. I'm really looking forward to going fishing there as well, be it from a boat or by a jetty or dock. Its been quite a while since I've laid a finger on my fishing gear. The best part about going overseas is if you're going overseas accompanied by your entire family, or a whole group of buddies. I doubt it'd be even half as much fun going there unaccompanied.
People'd usually be stuffing their faces with glorious food during a vacation, but I'll be doing the opposite. Since most of the restaurants that aren't fast food restaurants there serve dishes that are to be consumed together with rice, I'll only be eating those dishes, without any rice whatsoever. I've made a pact with the staple food product never to sink my teeth into them. Ever.
Off the topic, I'm currently in desperate need of mesos in Maplestory. Unfortunately, no one is selling any now. I guess I'll just have to wait till after my trip for either Limcy or Jiayang to strike it rich, & hopefully be able to sell me some virtual money =_= The very best of luck to them with their sales. I hope you'll be able to earn more mesos(for the sake of selling them to me HAHA) As for my dk, I'm not concerned about training it now; its in such a crippled state after the hacking incident that I look at my damage & just click the 'quit game' button. Impatiently waiting for someone to sell mesos to me, preferably at a range of 30cents to 50cents per million mesos.
Regarding my studies, I'd say I've been catching up on my mediocre math while learning new stuff that I'm keen gaining the knowledge on by googling them or wiki-ing them. I haven't been doing much for pure chemistry, though. The thought of those sickening equations just puts me off. I'm getting along quite well with pure physics, though; biophysics is really intriguing. As for SS, JUST READ THOSE GODDAMN NEWSPAPERS. For history, I just think about Hitler & the next thing I know, I'm reading up about WW2 on the web. English. ENGLISH??? Just keep reading stuff & picking up words & using them CORRECTLY, duh. Pronunciation has never been much of a problem for me.I mean, what can I say? 90% of the people I know pronounce the word 'halo' as 'hullo' or some other wacked up shit. No offence, but it's quite true. I pronounced 'halo' precisely as what it is the 1st time I came across the word. Ahahaha, self-praising, everyone does a bit of it sometimes.(well there are those who do it every bit of their lives) I guess my proper pronunciation in English makes up for my poor one in my mother tongue =_=
Oke Doke, I'm off to maple to mess around with the pirate I created to play for fun.
Au Revoir.
