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!
