Thank God its 2009
HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone. TGI2009!!! So glad i made through 2008 with lots of good memories
*in tears*
Resolution: aspire to become a better man next year.
*determined*
*on fire*
Just recently went to a concert at GRI church (and now currently the biggest and newest church in jakarta) with my family and some church friends. Performed lots of great pieces by G.F.Handel.
Snapshots of the concert hall.



And that is just one small part of the entire church. Didnt have the chance to take any pics of the outside though haha...
And after that, we went to the biggest and newest shopping center haha... Been to this place twice and the design really amazes me i couldnt restrain myself from taking more pictures (and uploading them haha...)

A harp performance by young girls and old ladies...


the top floor...

flashy windmill...

loved the lighting...



More floors yet to come...

And the best place of all... the food court



Really love the interior design. Looks rather grand for a foodcourt

The deeper parts of the food court. haha... so many vines

The excitement of countdown is over. I can hear fireworks all over my neighbourhood. Btw for all those who didnt know, fireworks is legal in indo haha... Though i think its pretty and exciting, it seems like i have grown out of it. haha... Old age is a cruel thing.
I remember last year when me and my church friends had steamboat at one of our houses and awaiting countdown. Then as the clock is about to hit twelve, it started to rain. But... we don't really care haha... We still stubbornly went out and try to light up the fireworks in the wet weather. And then we were joined by some other neighbours who also had more fireworks. Then somewhere in the distant, another neighbourhood came up with better fireworks and we were jealous and stuff, and so we compete to see who finish first. Hmmm... though i see no point in the competition, at least it makes the night more interesting. haha...
this year? i rather spend it with my family. I think my church friends are probably having fun right now doing the exact same thing. But ohwells, not that i regret my choice haha...
I am rambling...
Some interesting things that came up in some random convo haha...
