Last Sunset of 2008

The sun bows out for the last time in 2008 by showing off her most beautiful colour of rays today. Hope this will set us to a more beautiful fortune in 2009. Amen.

Old School Golf Buddies

I played golf with buddies from high school: Gravin and Ardianullah (Sumbel) at Sentul Highland. Had lots of fun as we came from the same golf 'school' at Bontang. Old jokes still made lots of laugh.

Global Warming Effect?

It's been three years since we visited Anyer beach. One thing I noticed from the past is the ever advancing shore line. Now the beach area is only few meters when during the sea tide. Effect of global warming?

Cheap Massage

I couldn't resist the temptation for a massage, wild accompanying my kids on the beach. Besides with only 20 thousands rupiah (approximately 2 dollars) for an hour massage, you can't go wrong with that!

Holiday in Anyer

This holiday our family go together to Anyer beach with Elok's family. We have lots of fun at the beach, especially because the waves are high. Double the fun! Well for some people like Elok and Endah here, they prefer to have a massage. That will do as well. :-)

Dewi Wedding

One of our maid, Dewi, is getting married today. Four of us plus Siti, our other maid, attended the wedding party at Japos, Tangerang.

Bona Defends His Title

Bona succesfully defends his title to make his Copa Kresnadi tally to 5. Trailing me just 1 victory, just like Mas Oyi. Today I played a really awful tournament, both my teams lost in their first game. Not my day. Can only bite my finger.

XMas with The Leuwols

It's christmas day! We visit Mbak Wik's house to celebrate christmas with her family (The Leuwols). Good food, great fun.

Aya's Fairy Tale

This one is Aya's story about a brave rabbit. A four pages story, this one got in honest praise from her teacher.

Kids Progress Evaluation

Had Parents and Teacher Conference today at kids' school to evaluate their progress during the first semester. In overall, we're happy with the kids progress. One most obvious progress is on their ability to write a story, as done by Rafif here. He wrote his fictional experience of having car driving lesson with me ;-)

More Than Words

Obviously, 'More Than Words' is Extreme's most popular song for general audience. You can see the lights coming from audience's hand phone, trying to capture video or just a picture of Nuno and Gary singing their most famous song.

Extreme Stage

I and Agung watch Extreme show tonight. We came in early, and have to wait for an hour before the show begin.

Trio Metal

HR 'Metalheads' during AAMI farewell party at Forbidden City tonight.

Richard's Wedding

Our dear friend Richard is getting married today at Hotel Dharmawangsa. He marries Ellia, former office mate whom he met at HSBC. Of course we did not miss the opportunity to take our ritual 'DEWA' like pose with the bride and the groom. Hehehe..

Match Play Mailing List GolfClub

Had match play game today for my mailing list Golf Club againts Pak Eddy Ruswandi. We both felt great deal of pressure which made us play worse than our usual standard. Playing with 7 strokes lower handicap, I did not make enough putts and made too many cheap mistakes. In the end I lost 1 down. Damn! Kopi pahiiit!

Take a Break During Exam Preparation

Aya and Rafif play games on computer after finishing their exam preparation. Kids today are so fortunate, the teaching method and materials are so much advanced than what we used to have before.
