I ought to really kill the internet connections in Indonesia if only it were a living thing. SO SLOW, can't upload picture in less than 10 minutes, have to reconnect at least twice for it to stabilize!
Oh you know what by the way? On Monday, when I went for my skating practice, I saw this hockey guy. He is SO CUTE! Plus, he plays hockey, Ice Hockey. *sigh* What could be better? I mean, hockey guys are so cool. Apart from the fact that they ruin the ice surface, of course.

These two are my little friends who kept insisting that I should fall and land on my butt. They claimed that it reduces the fear of falling. I don't think so though. One good example would be Peiyi. She fell and landed with a SPLIT and is still afraid of ice skating. (oops, sorry you mei! secret exposed =p) It's really adorable, you guys should see her skate, or maybe coach her or something. =p
Jakarta, oh Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia. Which part of it ought to be this advertised beautiful city? It is indeed beautiful at times... like the one below.

Sometimes though, it's frustrating. How people themselves destroy their own country and then blamed others.
Due to a whole night's rain, it flooded for approximately half a meter in this area...

and I think I know why.

Eutrophication + Pollution, perfect combination!
By the way, speaking of ice skating before these disturbing pollutions, what happened to innocent kids nowadays?!
The other day, my 8-year old cousin and I went skating with the intention of teaching her some techniques. I was damn shocked when she told me, "Jie, those guys are staring at you," then she continued by saying, "I saw the guy talking about you, and after that his friend pushed his head as if telling him to behave."
I was like, DANG. I mean, she's like EIGHT years-old. When I was eight I don't even observe guys nor interpret their behaviour! All I know was I tried to wear glasses just to impress my crush, but let's not get to there.
Tsk tsk tsk.
Kids nowadays...
You guys should observe your younger whoever, they might surprise you with their... you know. I don't even know what to call it. Ha!
