There's some high-quality prank going on in this thread ATM.
Just wanted to warn you, people.

I sense another sticky in Retardo, of the 'Kaiserin-Kingcomrade' -kind.

:obviously:

I know not what you speak of, spekkio. :smug:

Anyways, breakfast was done in day 2 and we're off!

As you can see, the streets of Jakarta can be a little chaotic. Wagons going against the traffic. Road stalls and snack hawkers litter the traffic lights intersection.
If you pay attention to that dirty riverway around the horizon, there's a bunch of shacks and slums built. Those were mostly the poor coming to the capital in search of fortune. They have no land permit and built shacks with whatever they could find. Eventually, when land developers come to build malls over them, they had to rent cops to drive these parasites away.

Strangely, no one bothered to drive them away when no construction is going on. My father told me they paid bribes to the civic officials. Of course, they can't compete with the big time developers. So when the construction crew came with cops, they can't do a damn thing.

Toll highways usually require payment. $1.00 or so per entry.

03.jpg


Traffic isn't so bad, since it' a public holiday. Can't wait to see how bad it is tomorrow.

04.jpg


Rich/Upper class residential areas tend to have security barricade surrounding it. Ever since the unrest in 1998, when the rioting poor broke into the rich apartments, burning, pillaging and raping, no one is taking any chance this time.

05.jpg


And there's my eldest aunt's home. Bigger than mine for sure.

06.jpg


I wouldn't mind living in this city so much if traffic isnt' so bad...but that's not the case, last friday, a day before my arrival, the last minute shopping creates extreme jams that held up the streets for around 3 hours. People would suffer through 2-3 hours of driving only to do 1 hour of business before making the exhausting trip home.

07.jpg


What a waste of space IMO. All that empty space..and there's just one stairway up. Could've fit at least another 2 bed rooms.

08.jpg


My bro entertaining the nephews with his footballing skills.

09.jpg


I can't imagine them cleaning up the 2 storey high curtains.

10.jpg


My sis gets down to business by singing the day away with Karaoke while I spend my time chatting with other cousins. Relatives insisted I sing a song, not wanting to disappoint mom, I decided to sing Matt Monro's 'My Kind of Girl'; simple, clear, and effective. Unlike those next-gen musics. :smug: But anyway, watching all the uncles and aunts gathering around my sis as she sang was pretty sweet. I think she got more money from them this way.

We finished our gathering at around 5 pm before returning home for a quiet family dinner.

ENd of Day 2

Hmmm. Really don't get the appeal of bacon crisp girl, other than "omg she's so shy!"

Also, aren't Shiina and Misha the same person (I never remember the names, so I have to check here)? Guess she beats Kenji if you combine both.

Apropos, a question: why is Misha even on this school? Is anything wrong with her?

IIRC, she actually wanted to be a sign language interpreter before she arrived- this school is one of the few that teach such a course, for obvious reasons.

Day 3 we skip over breakfast, I look over at my brother's pc and got sick of the cable arrangements. I need to get out of the house before I vomit all over the keyboard.

01.jpg


The TV Isn't much better.

02.jpg


That was Rambo...versus the Hulk, Flash Girl...and Ivan from Jagged Alliance. Serious Business.

03.jpg


I can't take this shit anymore. So we head out to catch MI 4 : Ghost Protocol

04.jpg


Today's quieter, holiday's over and it's 11 am. Streets are still empty. Thank god. We're headed to the Central Park Mall. A huge mall with a park in the center. New concept and stuff.

05.jpg


Basement's full of family restaurant and stuff. We're not here for food yet...

06.jpg


The Chinese New Year decorations are still in place - one long dragon - shaped dragons still hang high. I'm quite impressed. 90% of its citizens are still in poverty, but indonesia can still build malls year after year.

07.jpg


Nice view of the garden from top level.

08.jpg


The queue for tickets was short, but slow. Trademark indonesian tardiness.

09.jpg


Movie was average. We head to the bookstore once the credits rolled. It's pretty big. I have no idea what to buy.

10.jpg


Looks like Hamburger Helper wrote some books on Chinese Astrology. Sarang Naga is 'Dragon Nest'

11.jpg


Here's something that reminded me that Indonesia is still a muslim country, and hence anti-jew. They dont even ban flights fly to Israel from the airports.
This book is titled - 'Lies and Extortion in the name of the Jewish Holocaust' by Norman B Finkelstein, Indonesian Edition.

12.jpg


I never got to read a page of it since it's plastic wrapped. Here's another crowd pleaser: Synagogue of Satan. 'The secret history of Jews plans for World's Domination and total Destruction that has been long in preparation' by Andrew C. Hitchcock.

13.jpg


I bought small chinese horoscope book for Rp40,000 (around 4 USD) and decide to stop by the supermarket. My bro buys alcohol while I tide myself with some light snacks.

14.jpg


Finished with shopping we settle for a noodle lunch.

15.jpg


We fill our order slip and pass it to the waitress
16.jpg


Japanese noodle - for my bro.
17.jpg


'Curry' noodle for me.
18.jpg


Tastes like ass, :( we head back at 4-ish PM and experienced the growing and hectic traffic of jakarta. What a bitch. Just look at these motorcycles to the right! Where the fuck is the intersection?

19.jpg


Glad I made it back alright, nightly news told of a local who consumed drugs and alcohol, involved in traffic accident which killed 9. The best part is she twittered that shit while under influence saying 'holy shit..i';m so high now . i felt like i just crashed into some ppl' - when that occured. No saving her ass.
