It Might as Well Be Spring

(1945) richard rodgers, oscar hammerstein ii The things I used to like, I don’t like any more, I want a lot of other things I’ve never had before, It’s just like my mamma says, I sit around and mourn Pretending that I am so wonderful and knowing I’m adored I’m as restless as a willow in a windstorm, I’m as jumpy as a puppet on a string, I’d say that I had spring fever, But I know it isn’t spring. I’m as starry eyed and gravely discontented, Like a nightingale without a song to sing. Oh, why should I have spring fever, When it isn’t even spring? I keep wishing I were somewhere else, Walking down a strange new street, Hearing words I have never never heard, From a man I’ve yet to meet. I’m as busy as a spider spinning daydreams, I’m as giddy as a baby on a swing, I haven’t seen a crocus or a rosebud, Or a robin or a bluebird on the wing, But I feel so gay in a melancholy way, That it might as well be spring, It might as well be, might as well be, It might as well be spring.

MId test crisis people!

waiting for the sun

Faith was a true mystery,I would wake up in the morning and could see everything lined up before me,i would know that if i took a certain action,i could count on a predicted outcome.Any fears and doubts would be assuaged by my knowledge of God's love..

on the contrary.......

On the bad days,i felt as if i were standing in the thick fog,i couldnt see where i'd come and i definitely couldnt see where i was going..whatever lay around the bend might hurt me or the people i loved most.The demons could be lying in wait-they almost certainly were..

Today...finally tonight...and tonight finally tomorrow...the sun is waiting...

real street is intimidating!

tonight is my first ride of a manual motorbike to the crowded street..with only little knowledge of riding motorbike,i dare myself to ride the bike with Poppy to buy dinner..Quite risky I admit but sooner or later i have to ride on the real street one day,it's so crazy especially here in Jakarta.When riding around the housing estates is fun and free but when you face the big street,it feel so OUCH..i feel like a baby learning to walk and suddenly there is a big adult walking infront of me. I feel so timid and nervous is not a question!

when we reached home,it feels like a good finish line and a good relief..

Poppy says:it's like a free roller coaster ride that she prefers to pay the real one..hahaaaaa....

HAPPY EASTER PEOPLE!

laviva medan

10 years we lost contact!and i miss her!she's still the same old santi!

i have michael,mei mei,mei ping,and ping ken the little dude who melts your heart


A lady called Beckham


Santi and Pin,a happy couple!

my Medan family preparing stuffs,the graves at Medan really grand!i think the higher their status,the grand their grave,even my grandpa have eel pond..eek..

i just came back from a short visit to Medan after 3 to 4 years of absence from there..and this is my first short visit...normally,i will stay for one to two weeks even a month..this time only 4 full days.so i eat durian till i drop..haha...back to jakarta,i was totally drop to my bed..bad cough,lost of voice,and sneeze nonstop.this visit,they call it as CHENG BENG (yearly visit to grave yard),since i have few days off class so i delightedly accept the tixies..

I dont think mainly because of durian,i think because of the extremely hot weather when visiting the graves. it's like a tour,you know,grave after grave..heat after heat..
anyway my family who have a strong belief in their Buddhist religion finally understand me for being a Christian. I kneel down and gives my respect with a flower bouquet,honestly this is my first time. yea..slowly..they will join Jesus army.Amen.

So back to Medan,I reunited with my childhood bestfriend who is now married happily to a humurous man and Santi is a very good host,both of her husband and she bring me to the new theme park at brastagi called hillpark[enemy of MiKi holiday]...As i only have one day to spend at brastagi and Miki opens at 3 pm,i couldnt try the new crazy ride at Miki.The ride almost the same as the Tornado ride in Dufan.anyway Merci San,Pin.
Santi's family is very close to my family,and to hear that her family is all great and well,i am so happy.

At Medan,i also have close contacts with the young children,i feel like i was at the kindergarten,they brought me to their own little world and i almost drunk in it,i'm trying to learn their baby language..they are all very adorable to the fullness.

another truth i gained alot and nelayan's durian pancake is really good!
oh,another horse ride!this time is more challenging and rough!phew!
