True Love Tag
2008-04-05 13:15:00 Putri and Marzie want to know my opinion about True Love , and I will pass this tag as well to blog buddies whom I haven't tagged them before. Not sure if you do tag or not, but here is for you: Jemima, Angeles, and Mistipurple.Copy the questions and answer them honestly.1> What does true love mean to you?~ True Love ... is willingness to sacrifice, to put others first instead of ourselves.2> How do you know you're really in love?~ hm... I think if I smile a lot when he is around, if I miss him even though I just met him 5 minutes ago, if I feel so weak (just like lack of vitamin) when I can't meet him and don't know where he is, if I could be so patient and full of hope towards his shortcomings, and if I feel so energized when I hear his voice on the phone.3> How many times in your life have you fallen in love?~ eeerrr... quite some times.. many times... including to handsome celebrities? Countless? hahaha4> Have you ever fallen out of true love because you were mad at the moment...

My Dad's birthday celebration
2008-03-30 11:02:00 Remember that my dad has passed away in 2005? Today is his birthday! This morning I told my kids about this in the car on the way to church.

2008-03-28 01:03:00 Cliff was sick... please visit him in his room... it is my children's diary I made long time ago but never publish it. I will start blogging about their life there. The 'children's room' is still under construction... but I guess I have postponed it too long to start posting there. I plan to move some children posts from here to that blog, but still have no time to do it...Remember that my old maid left already because she got sick? Now I only got one maid and she kept 'warn' me to find a friend for her. See? Here in Bandung, maid doesn't like to work alone! We must have 2 maids because they need a friend not because overload works! This maid stops working and can sleep at 8 PM, I don't force her to work all day long. She said her hands hurt because of washing the clothes.... she got her body ache... and so on.. and so on...I told her that I am not an inconsiderate employee.. I gave her bonus because she works alone here, 25% of her salary. I don't know if she is happy enou... More About: Today , Update

Another side of Bandung
2008-03-24 10:26:00 Last Thursday we went to Lembang - a highland on the north of Bandung . There were a wedding anniversary invitation from 3 couples over there. I was so excited to go there as it was my favorite place ever! The place's name is Girindah, (Beautiful Mountain) and I used to work in a cafe there before. I've seen so many beautiful phenomenon over there... from the thick white midst, many beautiful sunsets, a gorgeous rainbow in one lovely afternoon (I even can see the edge of the rainbow!), the stunning Bandung at night scenery and a really wonderful bright fullmoon over there!!

Clay is still sick... after 3 weeks.
2008-03-21 09:33:00 Clay is sick... have seen his pediatrician this morning (after waiting for 3 hours!). Have cough for 3 weeks already, and today got a slight fever again. Too bad, I didn't tell the doctor that he got fever, I just thought he was too tired and too long being outdoor yesterday. After we came home from the doctor, the fever comes back again.. and now he says his stomach is hurt as well as his ears.. his body is itchy too (the doctor said it was because of sweat?) well..well..well.. what happened to him? The doctor said he doesn't need antibiotics because there is no infection whatsoever, but now he got fever I call the doctor just now but he can only be reached tomorrow morning.Now he just rests in his bedroom, can't sleep and refuse to watch tv. I give him green beans soup. Poor boy.. he was about to visit kidzania (click and see it is a very interesting place for kids!) in Jakarta with my sister in law, but they forgot to buy a ticket for him :-(I thank God, Clay didn't feel too ...

Why this Friday is Good Friday?
2008-03-21 00:25:00 Because today is the moment when Justice and Love meet...Justice always stands for the righteousness and perfection, Justice can't just forgive and forget one single mistake because there is always consequences in every mistake we've done. Just like the police officer has to fine us when he found us breaking the rules. It's his duty to maintain the justice and fine us because of our mistake. On the contrary... Love always giving, always forgive and forget.... To be opposite to Justice, Love doesn't want to punish us, love wants to set us free from our punishment even though we have mistakes... love forgives no matter how many mistakes we've done. Love doesn't remember bad things we've made. Love really accept who we are even though our deeds have hurt Love.How Justice and Love could meet? They are so different, they are so contradictory! Justice can't stand of any mistakes at all, every mistake has to be punished... and if all the mistakes are counted, punishment is too har... More About: Friday , Good

My maid is sick.
2008-03-17 05:32:00 Heeeeiiyaaa... how are you all!?! This morning, I took my maid to the doctor. I have two maids, the sick one is old.. 44 years old. What is her sickness? High blood pressure - 165/110~! Pain in left abdomen through her back and there is blood when she spits ! Awwww... terrible... quite serious! The doctor asked her whether she drinks coffee or not... (I don't have coffee makers and she doesn't drink coffee here.. ) eh btw, what is the effect of coffee, instead of pleasure? :-)She chooses to get medical treatment at home, with her daughter and family. So she will be sent home in several days. Work only 1.5 month, and the agent refuse to give me the refund, because she has worked here more than a month and no guarantee anymore. I used to hate this situation before, but now, I am ok... I don't think too much about it... just want to be happy and pray for a new one. Besides, I still have a 24 years old maid here. It's ok.
