I am back in Jakarta after more than a month in Singapore. It is strange after getting used to Singapore. I didnt meet a lot of ex-students this time - why? just didnt feel like it. I did catch up with friends , some that i hadnt seen for more than ten years . Amazing how when u leave uni, you lose touch with people. But whether ex-students friends or colleagues the question is always why no kids. While I understand the concern after a while it becomes tiresome to answer their questions. At the same time its good to meet with people and share things so on the whole I enjoyed meeting my friends.
One thing I really liked was getting to the nearest mrt without getting wet as it was sheltered all the way. So a lot of the times I would just try my luck without the umbrella. Dont know if it is murphy's law or what. Whenever i brought my umbrella out - it wouldn't rain!
More later......
