hello...long time no update. i hope my english is still good enough to pull through this post. i've missed out so much on pet society coz of my internet-deprivation that life has become petsociety-less. haha. i'm learning ever more 'soft skills' from helping out in my parents' shop. like talking to people, and not to talk to people. haha, meaning, how to avoid conversation that i don't want and to push the conversation in another direction, and stuffs. hopefully i'm kinder, and more patient. lol. i'm learning to drive now. haha. my city's traffic is impossible. i think i almost got killed so many billion zillion times that i'm so lucky to be alive now. the HUGE CONTAINER TRUCKS are terrorising and they think that they own the road and they kinda want to trample me and my instructor's (not so) teeny weeny car, that for so many times i almost swerved into this huge shoal of motorcycles on my other side. that's why u need bigger cars in Indonesia, so u can be seen and trucks wun trample u so easily. and the roads here are so so so so so so so so crowded and narrow that my leg hurts from driving. i dun go past 3rd gear around town. haha. but i enjoy driving, partly because my driving instructor is nice and friendly and doesn't smoke (THANK GOODNESS!) haha. and he's a good teacher. so i hope i turn out a good driver. lol. my new-found friend told me that i should hit into something and in the end i did hit someone's rearview mirror ever so gently so there wasn't even a hint of it being graced by my presence. HEHEHEHE. and soon i'll be on my own way, driving on my own. hehehe. the great sense of freedom =D like i can drop by and buy street food without my mum knowing coz she wun allow. i'm waiting to buy Pisang Molen the first trip out driving on my own =D whee!~~~~~~~~~~~ hahahaha.
and soon i'll have internet access. and i'll come back to pet society with a vengeance. muahahahaha.
the worst thing i've met in indonesia, which is also the best thing is that my IL has come =D
