Vivi's eye is sore. She has told me yesterday, but still she went to Ilma's party with Atilla and Ella, then they went to Hard Rock after that because the party wasn't "successful" - which means the girls didn't even get tipsy there :D

Oom Hadi (Mom's oldest bro) called Dad this morning and informed him that one of my (late) gramma's younger sisters passed away. We don't know when the funeral will be held. Anyway, Dad told me that she'd been blind for years and her husband left her... She lived with her grandkids since then...

It's just another Sunday afternoon here. Life goes on. The world goes round.

I met him once at Pondok Indah Mall few months ago, in front of Ace Hardware.

Rest in peace, Bung Sophan.

Senior actor and political activist Sophan Sophiaan dies in motor accident

Antara , Sragen | Sat, 05/17/2008 11:15 AM | National

A senior political figure of the PDI-P party, Sophan Sophiaan, died at Sragen hospital Saturday morning due to injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident at the borders of Central and East Java.

According to Sophan's colleague, Tri Erika, the accident occurred at 09:30 am at the borders of Central Java town Sragen and Ngawi, in East Java.

She said the late senior actor was riding his Harley Davidson at high-speed when the vehicle fell into a roadside hole.

He subsequently fell into a coma and was brought to the Sragen hospital, where he breathed his last.

Sophan was participating in a cross-Java Harley Davidson Club Indonesia (HDCI) convoy in commemoration of Indonesia's 100th anniversary of National Awakening. (*)

Rest in Peace, Ling Ling

Japan's oldest giant panda dies

TOKYO (AP) — Japan's oldest giant panda, Ling Ling, a longtime star at Tokyo's largest zoo and a symbol of friendship with China, died Wednesday of heart failure, zoo keepers said.

Ling Ling was 22 years and seven months old, equivalent to about 70 human years, the Ueno Zoo said. It said he was the fifth-oldest known male panda in the world.

Ling Ling had lost his appetite and strength because of his old age, and recently suffered from heart and kidney problems, zoo official Motoyasu Ida said.

Keepers and visitors mourned the panda, which was the zoo's most popular attraction for more than 15 years. Public broadcaster NHK showed many visitors writing condolence messages, with some brushing away tears.

Ling Ling died just one day after the zoo withdrew him from public view because of his worsening health.

Born at China's Beijing Zoo in 1985, Ling Ling came to Tokyo in 1992. He had traveled to Mexico three times in recent years for unsuccessful mating.

In Loving Memory: Uncle David. And Some Other Stuff.

Gosh. There are so many things to write about today...

Uncle David

Around 10:00 this morning, we got a call from my cousin Paulus, informing us that his father, Uncle David, passed away... Uncle David is Dad's younger and only brother. I was so worried that the news would make Dad sad, but thank God he only said, "Someday, we all will meet each other again, so I won't worry about that."

Dad is the only one that lives in Jakarta. All his siblings are in Semarang. We can't go to Semarang to attend the funeral (it will be held on Saturday). My other cousin called few hours later and said that we need not to fly to Semarang. Her mother (Dad's oldest sis) won't come to the funeral either as she's very old and not too healthy. But my cousin said that she's not feeling too sad, either.

It's a strange coincidence. Mom was the third child, and she passed away first before her siblings. Uncle David was also the third child, and he passed away first... They both now meet each other in Heaven, I believe. Uncle David was a God-fearing man and he loves God with all his heart. Before he got attacked by Parkinson, he was actively involved in the ministries. God bless his soul...

Doggy Porn

Another thing I need to write is about the Chihuahuas couple. You can't believe how HUGE C'est Moi's sexual drive is! We all feel sorry for Chantique, as he "did" it to her like 20 times a day! Poor little beautiful dog... She seems enjoying it few times, but when C'est Moi keeps doing it, she barks at him in anger! They are just crazily in lust!

I've been trying to download some image editor softwares since morning, but since my internet connection is really slow, it took the whole morning, afternoon, evening, to get all the programs downloaded! And it's not done yet! I'm still downloading some program as I'm updating this blog.

Bakwan Malang

And this is what I ate this afternoon, when I was taking a break from watching "the doggy porn" and from being on-line for hours. Well, it wasn't as good as it looks in the picture, but it was okay. The bigger meatball tastes better than the small ones, and it's 4 times more expensive, too :D Miskiyah had this "bakwan Malang" too for her lunch.

I have a haiku for it:
