16 September 2012 diary (in Melbourne)

16 September 2012 diary.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.
I woke up at 9am in the morning. I took my last shower in the hotel and packed everything in my luggage. Before I left the room for check out, I did filming through my hotel window.
I checked out at 11:10am and left my luggage with the hotel temporarily. I went to church but I was too late so I guessed the next mass would be good. I had a dim sum for lunch at Dragon Boat in China town but the food I wanted to eat would never come out such as sio may and chicken feet. I only ate porridge, not popular fried prawn dumplings, and small egg tar. I almost left my sunglasses in this restaurant. Because I waited for the food which did not come out, I went to church very late. My dad called to me to say ‘safe flight’ but I was in the church. After church I went to see the Flinder Street Station for the last time ever to do the final filming and to say good bye to everyone in Melbourne and asked God to bless everyone in Melbourne especially to Tania, brother Cung Cung and his family too. My dad called me to say ‘safe flight’.

I took a photo of Tania’s apartment named Verve, and I suddenly found a famous market named Victoria Market. People told me it was a very popular market in Melbourne.
It was almost 4:00pm and I had to go quickly to Brunetti café to buy a few more nougats. I walked quickly, bought them, and went back to hotel. I asked someone to take a photo of me in front of a white structure in front of Tania's apartment. These photos were my last photos in my Melbourne holiday.
I collected my luggages at the hotel and left the hotel.
The taxi drove me back to Melbourne domestic airport. I did my last outside airport filming before getting my boarding pass at the airport.
Before I flew back to Perth I sent a WhatsApp message to Tania but did get any reply.
I landed in Perth almost at 9:30pm. When I turned on my smart phone Tania reply came 2 hours later saying ‘Safe flight sorry working’. My parents picked me up and we went home to my real house in Perth. I shared stories with my parents.

We arrived home, I took a shower (thank you my house you have a much stronger shower jet than the hotel I just left). I distributed the souvenirs from Melbourne to my parents.
I went to sleep at 00:00am because the next day would be the first day I went to work after a holiday in Melbourne.

Thanks God and thanks everyone.

Good afternnon everyone in Heaven and earth.

Dear Heaven and earth, let it be known that this day was the event where I met Tania for the last time ever in Melbourne holiday. I hope it’s not meeting Tania for the last time in my life.
I woke up at 9pm, I arrived at the hotel lobby at 11:15am with the farewell flower (including the card). Tania told me she was going to be 45 minutes late because she looked for the passport. Tania finally came out and she walked to me until she was very close to me. I thought she would like to hug me. I asked her to close her eyes I wanted to give her a surprise but she refused to close her eyes (may be she was shy).

Thank You flower for Tania Tjokrosoeharto

She closed her eyes and opened her eyes to see the flower I gave to her. She brought the flower to her apartment room so I waited for about 5 minutes. She came back to the lobby. She was at her prettiest looking. She wore high heel shoes so we guessed we would not run this time. We went Crown Casino and we headed to Conservatory to have the farewell lunch. We talked, we smiled, we laughed, and I also sang some of my songs to her. I also had a chance to look at her face when she ate something she did not like (her face was funny). Afer lunch she tooked many photos of me on the stair in the lobby dark zone. She bought a dim sum fried squid tentacles for her friend. She also took photos of me outside as well. After that I started feeling sad, I was starting to feel sad because it was the time for me to say good bye to her. We went on tram and counted down to real good bye began. I said to her she was beautiful on the tram when the tram near the library on Swanston Street. I told her to take care of herself when walking near her apartment, she replied take care as well back to me as well. When we entered the lobby, I said my final word to her saying that if there was something you don’t like from me during my holiday in Melbourne then I apologised for them. She just smiled a bit and said it’s ok. When the lift door opened I told her to keep smiling. Her face was a bit sad too she was not looking at my eyes, she looked down on the floor. When the lift door closed it was the end of my meeting with her. I thanked God for letting us meet each other in my Melbourne holiday.

I slept for 2 hours before going to last dinner ever with my friends named Antonio and Angelika. We went to The Aviary for the final dinner in my Melbourne holiday. It was a little bit expensive dinner but I was all right to pay them all. I did some short filming of myself and Antonio. I also did some cool actions at the restaurant. After the final dinner ended we went back to hotel. I gave what I did not use at all to Antonio and Angelika such as an umbrella, a scissor, a sticky tape, a camera lens cleaner, and a gift wrap. I said good bye to Antonio first and walked together to an intersection between RMIT University and the library where I said good bye to Angelika.

I went to Crown Casino take photos of Melbourne city along the river. I went back to Swanston Street to take photos of Flinder Street Station at night. I was thinking of visiting McDonald where Tania worked. I arrived only to take photos of the store and I ate a medium size fries.
I went back to hotel to start packing everything in my luggages and I thought I need to buy a bigger luggage.
I slept after talking to my parents in Perth.
This was my last sleep ever in my Melbourne holiday.

That’s all.

14 September 2012 diary.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

I woke up but decided to sleep again until afternoon. I got up and ate the left-over fish without putting it inside the oven or microwave because the hotel room did not have those machines. I went out to visit Monash University in Cauldfield. I spent about 1 hour before going back to the city to buy a farewell flower for Tania (with a thank you card). I rushed back to hotel to prepare for a possible farewell dinner with her. She told me she was too tired to go out with me on this day but she told me to book a restaurant named Conservatory at Crown Casino. It would be the farewell lunch between me and her.
I was very happy going out to Crown and booked the restaurant for the next day. I ate at Emporio restaurant. I spent the most expensive dinner for 1 person at Emporio by eating a half dozen of oysters and a rice with a chicken but they were not a very delicious food.
I went back to hotel with great happiness mixed with sadness because the next day it will be my last day I would see Tania in my Melbourne holiday.
I slept at a bit early after talking to my mom in Perth.

That’s all.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

This day was my last day ever I went out to RMIT University where Tania was studying. Tania was came out late but we had to rush to have lunch because Tania lunch time was very short. We decided to eat at the nearest café. It began raining so we had to run. Tania was laughing when running with me. We ate at a Turkey restaurant. We hardly ever talked in this lunch because there was a television showing awesome things about human. After lunch we quickly went back to Tania classroom. I almost went inside her classroom.
I went back to the city and alighted at Southern Cross Station to do filming and took photos of me. Few hours after that I went back to have short rest in the hotel. At around 6:30pm I went out to Brunetti café to buy nougats for my family and Cory (my supervisor at work). I did filming at Brunetti café too. I tried its nougats, they are very sweet and I liked them.
I went to china town to have dinner alone. I had Hainanese chicken rice and a salted egg fish. I could not finish the fish so I took it home. After that I sent a WhatsApp message to Tania to tell her that I would book a farewell dinner. She said Thank You so I went to Crown Casino to book a dinner on Saturday evening. Before I confirmed, I called Tania to ask if she would be ok on Saturday dinner. She said no and she also said she would unable to go out with me anymore. I became a bit frustated of would not going out with her anymore before I departed back to Perth. She was going to think about that. I decided not to book the restaurant and waited on the next day.
I went back to hotel and slept after talking to my parents in Perth.

That’s all.

12 September 2012 diary (in Melbourne)

12 September 2012 diary.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

This day was the day I would ask Tania to be my girlfriend. The very first person in the world in my life whom I asked to be my girlfriend.
I woke up very early in the morning and dressed with black t-shirt and black jacket.
I brought the two gifts and I went to a news agency shop on Swanston Street to buy gift bags. From there straight to a church, I prayed and told God that I was going to ask her to be my girlfriend. After that I rushed to Melbourne Central and be early to RMIT University so I did not give any bad impression for being late to her.

We went to Tom Phat to have lunch. I sang ‘Gift of love’ while giving the gifts to Tania. Tania was smiling while receiving the gifts. After that I asked her to be my girlfriend. Unfortunately she could not accept me. She told me it’s too fast for me to ask her to be my girlfriend. I understood her and still had a happy lunch.
After lunch she took some photos of me in front of churches outside Tom Phat. After that we went back to RMIT University. We agreed to meet again on the next day lunch.

I went back to city but a little bit of sadness being answered no by her. I still could smile because we were still friends. I went down at Flinder Street Station to take the last filming inside the station.
I went to souvenir shops to buy many souvenirs for my family and friends.

I went back to hotel to have few hours sleep before going out with my cousin named Cung Cung with his family.
I went out at 5:30pm to go to Melbourne Central. Brother Cung Cung waited for me. He almost did not recognize my face. We went on the train going to somewhere I did not know. We were on the train for about 35 minutes. I and him alighted on a suburb which I forgot the name. His wife named Wawan and children were waiting inside the car. We went out to a Vietnamese restaurant. After that we went to his house. His children were excellent in playing badminton, they won in so many competitions and I saw many golden cups and medals at his house. I watched Indonesian channel at his house too. After that brother Cung Cung drove me back to my hotel. The journey back to my hotel was very fun. He told me in Melbourne there is a private freeway in which we had to pay, I was a bit surprised about that. It was raining on the way back to hotel.

At the hotel I called my mom to tell everything about my life on this day. I went to sleep early because the next day I would meet Tania again.

That’s all.

11 September 2012 diary (in Melbourne)

11 September 2012 diary.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

I woke up in the morning and had lunch with Tania. I arrived earlier this time. Tania went out with smile. She told me she only had ½ break time. We quickly went to a coffee shop where there was a broken piano. I showed her the acrylic drawing of Tania. She liked it and she was very impressed with that. We enjoyed talking with each other but it was too quick because she had to go back but we made time to meet again. I walked around university. I suddenly received a WhatsApp message from Tania saying that she would finish her class sooner. She told me to met at the same restaurant on the day before. When I rushed to restaurant, Tania saw me from behind, she called my name loudly. I turned around and saw her smiling while walking to me. We went lunch together again. Lunch was over and we rushed back to her university.
I went back to the city to visit Luna Park but the Park was not opened on this day. I travelled back to city to buy the remaining souvenirs and the best shirts I could find. I heard someone shouted Allahu Akbar (meaning God is great). I quickly ran faster to avoid him and that place where I heard him. I was just afraid if he was a suicide terrorist.
I went to a catholic bookshop to buy gifts for Tania, I also bought gift wraps.
I ate dinner in China town at 9pm. I had a crab meat & corn soup as dinner entrée and fried rice noodle for the main course.
At the hotel, I tried to wrap the gifts but I could not because the gifts was not in a box shape.
I also finished off my own new song titled ‘My gift’ (in another planned title ‘Be Mine’).
I slept a bit late because of thinking of Tania. I was going to ask her to be my girlfried on the next day.
That’s all.

10 September 2012 diary.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

I woke up in the morning because I did not want to be late for Tania. Tania responded with happy when I wrote I did not want to be late.
The train went to UpField left me so I thought I would be late again but the next train came on time at 10:30am. The train suddenly stopped in the midle between Parliament and Flinder Street Station. The train stopped at Flinder Street Station for a very long time. It departed at 10:44am. Finally I arrived at 11am at RMIT University but Tania went out about 10 minutes late. When she came out, she showed me her smiling face. We went to a restaurant where we sat outside, we talked everything icnluding scary stories. She seemed interested to me. The lunch was over and I had to go back to city with great happiness.
I had a short rest in the hotel before went out again in the city only wearing at hink shirt. I went to a video game exhibition but the exhibition was very dissapointed. It did not h ave amazing game. It was totally dissapointed and a waste of time and money.
I did filming again in the city and started looking to buy souvenirs. I mostly bought a fridge magnets but I had not bought any shirts yet.

I went out to eat a steak at Margo in the casino and did filming too. The supervisor from Margo restaurant told me I could not do filming so I quickly stop filming and went out before I get into a trouble.
I went back to hotel and slept at usual time after receiving sms from my parents.
That’s all.

9 September 2012 diary.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

I got up in the morning but began leaving hotel at 12 noon. I had bakmi ayam for lunch at Nelayan. This day I went full tour to Melbourne China town in the afternoon. It was only a small long street compared to Perth wide street China town in Northbridge. I did full filming and photoshooting with my Canon G12 as well.
I went to Federation square to do more filming and photo shooting as well. There was a pretty cool Korean dance. I liked it.
After that I went to a Melbourne memorial on St. Kilda road. The memorial building was pretty good because we could go up to the balcony to see the city in 360 degrees. I went back to hotel to have 20 minutes rest before going to St. Francis church in the city. After the mass ended, I wanted to do a quick confession but the pastor was unable to do confession inside the confession room so we did confession outside the church. It was not like a serious confession but I believed God forgave my sins.
After that I went to The Aviary to have dinner by myself. I walked to the restaurant but I thought it was too far to walk so I caught a taxi.
I ordered somekind of soft beef. After I ate dinner I did few photoshoot actions at The Aviary but I was not satisfied with my smart phone picture quality due to too much noise. I was thinking of coming back here. I went to catch a tram number 79. I found this tram had no driver or a passanger at all. I waited for around 15 minutes before leaving the tram. I caught taxi and the taxi drove me back to hotel. I arrived at the hotel about 10:30pm and wrote my diary in Melbourne until it was up to date.
I phoned my mom in Perth to tell everything about Tania before deciding to sleep at 1am.
The next day would be a day I would meet Tania. I hoped that it would not be the final day I met her in Melbourne. Oh God! Please support me.
Thank you.

8 September 2012 diary.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

This day was the shortest day in my life.
In the morning I called Tania to ask her out for breakfast or lunch or dinner but she gave a negative answer for not going out on this day. Tania booked this Monday to have lunch again with me. I hoped that the lunch would not be the final meeting with her in this Melbourne holiday.
I then became quite frustated still being alone thus I continued sleeping until 2pm. I went out and ate bakso special lontong at Es Teler.
After that I went to Crown Casino waiting for Monday plan to meet Tania. This boredoom killed me. I fell 50% asleep but I forced myself to get up and be energized. I went to Tania’s McDonald in the evening and I did not see her. I went to Subway store next to McDonald to have dinner.
I went back to Crown Casino to walk around with great boredoom counting down to Monday’s meeting Tania. I decided to spend $50 to play wheel of fortune but I lost them all in 15 minutes.
Finally I went back to hotel with depression of being lonely.
I went to sleep in nightmare.
Oh God! Help me!

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

This day was a shorter day during Melbourne holiday.
I woke up in the late monrning. I had bakmi ayam for lunch at Nelayan restaurant.
I was thinking of looking for a McDonald store where Tania worked. She told me she worked at McDonald on St Kilda. I went to a tram going to St Kilda, I discovered a small McDonald store and went in. I saw Tania was working at McDonald, thanks to the very crowded people Tania did not see me. I came out imediatelly before she saw me. I went to a church near her store and prayed to God.
I went to Melbourne University to do filming about Melbourne University.
After that I went back to city to meet a female drawer; I wanted her to draw Tania when she held a father day gift. I sent a WhatsApp message asking her out tonight at StarBuck but she gave a negative answer.
I went back to hotel and was lazy to go out but I forced myself to go out because the drawing of Tania was completed. Tania’s drawing was collected and I had dinner at Tania’s McDonald where she was not there anymore.
After that I went to Crown Casino with Tania drawing to finish off the evening doing nothing but walking around.
I went to hotel at 00:00am with the drawing.
I took a photo of the drawing.
I went to sleep but I could not sleep because too much thinking of when I would go out with her again.

That’s all.

6 September 2012 diary (in Melbourne)

6 September 2012 diary.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

I woke up happy because I was going to meet Tania again.
I hurried and took a quick morning shower. I went to Melbourne Central to purchase a new MiKy. I had a small salmon sushi for breakfast. I went to catch a train going to UpField at Melbourne Central. Melbourne Central has two layers of subway underground. It was pretty cool to see underground of subway. I enjoyed riding this train and I alighted at Brunswick station where I had to alight at Jewel station. Tania class ended earlier so we had lunch at 11:30am at Tom Phat. Tania mood was much better but she was not in the best mood like the first going out.
At Tom Phat we did cool things such as reading her palm, and did fingering game on her hand. We laughed at some stories. It was the longest lunch time ever with Tania in this Melbourne holiday (it was 2 hours lunch). I managed to film her face too for about less than 30 seconds. At the end of lunch we went back to RMIT University. I saw her classroom (but I did not get inside her classroom). After she went into the classroom, I did filming her university before going back to city to do more city filming.
In the evening I went to Crown Casino by Taxi because it was raining. I had a wood fired pizza at Emporio. A customer next to me was angry with someone on his phone.
I went back to Hotel in happiness and slept around the same time.
That’s all.

5 September 2012 diary (in Melbourne)

5 September 2012 diary.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

I woke up in the morning and called Tania asking for dinner. She told me she was going to tell her friend first. She was also in the class.
I went out while hoping that I would get a good reply. Outside was extremely windy and it was not showering hard. I took some photos in front of the city very close to Crown food court center. It was very windy and the atmosphere was twilight. I ate an expensive Chinese food lunch after that I walked around to find any restaurant for tonight if I got a good reply from Tania.
On the way back to hotel I went to a shop to buy an umbrella (and I thought I left my MiKy card there); I also went to a church to do a confession.
Fifteen minutes after I arrived at the hotel, I got a positive reply from Tania but she wanted to go out with me as soon as she arrived at her apartment lobby. I jumped to have a quick shower. While I was having shower she arrived at the hotel lobby, she waited, waited, and became frustated of waiting. I hurried myself, dressed up as another Kyo and went outside the room. I started to realize I forgot to bring my MiKy card. My MiKy card can’t be found so I just left the room and ran for Tania.

Tania was waiting in the lobby with her bad mood. We went to a tram, in the tram I saw her in her worst mood. She told me not to look at her so I looked away. She told she had this bad mood from her university.
The going out to dinner was not enjoyable (it was not like the first one). We ate at Emporio restaurant, she ate the steak with chips. She only ate the steak and left the chips unfinished. I ordered a food which was terrible, my food was sticky. She told me she ate dinner faster this time. I paid the whole dinner. After dinner we hurried going to Eureka tower. I paid both tickets and we went up together. We both went to tower the Edge where we could see the whole city. Tania felt she was afraid of height. She did not want to be photographed with me so I was a photographed alone.

After that we both went to the ground floor. She still did not want to be photographed again with the reason she was in her bad mood. We went back to her apartment lobby by taxi. After the lift door was closed I went back to hotel and slept immediately (after calling my dad in Perth) because the next day we plan to have lunch near her University.
That’s all.

4 September 2012 diary.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

I woke up in the morning decided to go to Melbourne aquarium. I recorded all type of fishes. I spent a great time overthere with a little depression. I began to feel I was alone and I needed Tania to be with me.
I ate KFC Krusher but I realized it was too sweet. I went back to hotel to have a quick rest. In the evening I went out to do full city at night time filmings with my handycam. I did night filming, filming exactly the way to go to Koko restaurant just like with Tania on 2 September 2012. That day was the longest Melbourne filming I guessed; that day filming created more than 4GB of video data. In the evening I had a special price steak for $20 at Margo restaurant.
When I went back to hotel I started to feel lonely. Before I went to sleep I contacted my parents about my life today. I could not sleep so I recorded a 30 seconds city view video from my hotel room window.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

I woke up in happiness in the morning. I went to city without camera and a handycam. I had lunch at Nelayan an Indonesian restaurant on Swanston street.
I went back to casino to walk around and tried to remember the way to go back to Koko and to the dark zone lobby. I said to Tania I went back to Crown Casino, I shot a photo and sent her via WhatsApp.
I went back to have rest at the hotel before going back to Crown only to eat a special price wood fired pizza for $20.
After that I went home at hotel still in happiness and slept around the same time.
That’s all.

2 September 2012 diary (in Melbourne)

2 September 2012 diary.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

This was surely my happiest day in Melbourne because I would meet Tania.
I woke up at 8:00am and waited for a call or a Whatsapp if she wanted to ask me out but she did not so I guessed I should eat subway from yesterday. Tania was at work.
Melbourne was fairly empty on Sunday. I went on a tram no 48 hoping to stop at Crown Casino but I ended up in a wrong end location. I had to wait for another 20 minutes for a tram to bring me back to where I supposed to go. I caught a tram no 109 and stopped in front of Crown Casino. I only did filming the front city, the outside Crown casino building, Melbourne Exhibition Center, and so on. I did not go inside the Crown casino.

The evening was the most important event in Melbourne holiday. It was the time I met Tania. I met Tania for the first time since March 2011. I dressed as Kyo (from KOF Maximum Impact). I gave the apple cake to her. She was so pretty, we went to Crown Casino. She gave me a tour to everywhere inside and showed me all beautiful things especially the dark zone lobby with the amazing ceiling. We decided to go into the casino area but the guard prevented Tania for an ID. Tania did not bring her password so we could not go inside.

We ate at Koko Japanese restaurant on the 3rd floor after looking how to get to the 3rd floor. We had a very romantic dinner at a tempanyaki table. We had lots of good laughs. I spent the most expensive dinner ever for 2 people. It was the most expensive dinner for 2 people in my life. I paid $240 and I received a father’s day gift. The restaurant was unable to accept Eftpos I did not carry enough cash. I went down to withdraw money from ATM but my card can’t be inserted due to bad magnetic tape on my card. After about 20 attempts I could finally withdrew cash and paid the dinner. It was the time to open the gift. Before I opened the gift she took a photo of me using my smart phone and I took a photo of her using my smart phone too.

Tania Tjokrosoeharto at Koko restaurant at Crown.

The photo of her became the most beautiful photo in my smart phone. I asked her to open the father day gift but she could not open the gift because the ribbon was glued to anther ribbon. So we just opened in a harsh way. Inside the gift were pen, keys and cards storage wallets. Thank you God, I truly had the best and a romantic dinner with her.
We both went back to Ibis Hotel to get the Yukata present, the handbag, the small doll, and a Woolworth voucher for Tania. After that we went to Tania apartment lobby to see the mailbox room. Tania showed me that her apartment mailbox was unable to be locked with key.
I went home to the hotel with a great happiness. I called my mom and told her the beautiful story about the dinner with her. I thanked God in my night prayer before going to sleep at a forgotten time at night.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

Tania asked me out for a breakfast but I already had breakfast.
My new friend named Antonio and his female friend named Angelika came and we walked to Melbourne central to buy a new MiKy. This was my first day ever to catch a tram. We went to St Joseph Catholic church in Port Melbourne. The tram was very clean. I also met many new friends Jessica and Nadia. I met two friends who used to live in Perth named Habek and Yulia. We had an Indonesian mass. The Indonesian pastor celebrated birthday on that day. After mass we had satay and other barbecue foods outside the church. After lunch I visited Port Melbourne and did short filming.

I went back to hotel at around 4pm but I had to go out to watch an Indonesian concert ‘Mozart’ at 7pm. I left both my handicam and Canon G12 at the hotel so I had to use my Samsung Galaxy S3 to do filming in the concert. Tania sent me a WhatsApp message to ask me out on the next day. Her message made me much happier.

Melbourne was very cold. I and my other 4 friends (1 guy and 3 girls) had dinner at a Malaysian restaurant at 11pm.
I went home in happiness at 00:15am and slept after talking with my dad in Perth.

I went inside the airport and wait to board on QF768 at gate 15, there was a damage on Qantas aircraft so we had to move to another plane.
We departed to Melbourne an hour later via gate 13.
I ate a red wine steak for dinner in the aircraft. I was very happy and the wait to meet Tania would soon be over.

Good afternoon to everyone in Heaven and earth.

This day was the last day I was at work before went holiday in Melbourne.
I was extermely in happy mood because I was going to meet Tania.
I woke up in the morning and went to work on time.
I had sweet muffin in the morning and a Japanese food in the afternoon.
I finished work at 5pm and parents would like to pick me up from work but they suddenly changed their mind.
After work, I went to St. Mary church to pray and asked for a blessing before I went to Melbourne.
On the way to St. Mary church there was a girl who had a neck injury trying to reverse her call on the hill. The space between her car and the car in front of her is only 15 cms. Her car was manual. It was the biggest challange for me to do this. I decided to help her with great fear if I would definitely hit the car in front of her car. Thank you God!!! I reversed the car perfectly with only 1 cm almost hitting the car in front of her car. She praised me as a hero for saving her life. I went to church in great happiness.
I had a massage in the city to ensure I had fresh muscular power. After that, I went to The Aviary restaurant in the city to look at the menu so I would know what to order when I visited The Aviary in Melbourne.

I went home by train and when I arrived home I could find my parents but the car. I drove the car to Carousel shopping center to buy lens cloth and I had dinner. After I arrived home but I did not have a rest. I packed up my luggages. I also did not forget to bring the yukata present for Tania. I was very tired.
I sent an example of selection criteria and my resume to Roy who was going to apply a job at my office.

I slept at 3am with great tiredness. The next day I was going to Melbourne.

Post Olympics

Post Olympics

Here are the top nine comments made by NBC sports commentators during the
Summer Olympics that they would like to take back:

1. Weightlifting commentator: "This is Gregoriava from Bulgaria. I saw her
snatch this morning during her warm up and it was amazing."

2. Dressage commentator: "This is really a lovely horse and I speak from
personal experience since I once mounted her mother."

3. Paul Hamm, Gymnast: "I owe a lot to my parents, especially my mother and
father."

4. Boxing Analyst: "Sure there have been injuries, and even some deaths in
boxing, but none of them really that serious."

5. Softball announcer: "If history repeats itself, I should think we can
expect the same thing again."

6. Basketball analyst: "He dribbles a lot and the opposition doesn't like
it. In fact you can see it all over their faces."

7. At the rowing medal ceremony: "Ah, isn't that nice, the wife of the IOC
president is hugging the cox of the British crew."

8. Soccer commentator: "Julian Dicks is everywhere. It's like they've got
eleven Dicks on the field."

9. Tennis commentator: "One of the reasons Andy is playing so well is that,
before the final round, his wife takes out his balls and kisses them... Oh
my God, what have I just said?"

Fancy Dress Party [Joke]

Fancy Dress Party

A man with a bald head and a wooden leg is invited to a Xmas fancy dress party.

 He doesn't know what to wear to hide his head and his wooden leg, so he writes to a fancy dress company to explain his problem.
A few days later he receives a parcel with a note:

Dear Sir,

 Please find enclosed a Pirate's outfit. The spotted handkerchief will cover your bald head and with your wooden leg you will be just right as a Pirate. 


The man is offended that the outfit emphasizes his disability, so he writes a letter of complaint.
A week passes and he receives another parcel and note:

 Dear Sir,

 Sorry about the previous parcel. Please find enclosed a monk's habit.
The long robe will cover your wooden leg and with your bald head you will really look the part.
 

The man is really incandescent with rage now, because the company has gone from emphasizing his wooden leg to drawing attention to his bald head. So he writes a really strong letter of complaint. A few days later he gets a very small parcel from the company with the accompanying letter:

Dear Sir,
Please find enclosed a tin of Golden Syrup.

We suggest you pour the tin of Golden Syrup over your bald head, let it harden, then stick your wooden leg up your arse and go as a toffee apple.

 Regards 

William MacDonald

I prepared myself before going to Yogi and tante Grace's house to fix their computers.

There were two computer problems, Yogi computer was needed to be formatted and reinstalled Windows completedly but the problem was Yogi lost his motherboard driver CD. So I need to come back to him on another day. Tante Grace's computer was a high end laptop. Tante Grace saw a warning message on the Internet Explorer that she should ignore. I changed the settings on her Internet Explorer option. Plus her Internet Explorer had 175% zoomed window so everything she saw was too big. I changed the view back to 100% and the screen size was normal. Tante Grace was then happy.
I was happy too because I volunteerly helped them.

We went to an Indonesian mass in Myaree at 5pm. It was special mass to celebrate Indonesian independence day. I met my friends at Church as well.

We went to Union a Chinese restaurant in Kardinya and we found an angry customer waited for 45 minutes for the first food to come. We were scared if our food would come too late as well, we moved to Winthrop Chinese restaurant and had dinner. After that we went to drink hot chocolate at Chococolate drink place in Waterford.

And also I met a beautiful Singaporean girl named Evelyn together with her younger sister.

After dinner finished, we went home. I took Yogi home too but on the way near the freeway I saw police bus doing random breath test. I drank alcohol and was so afraid if the police caught me so we swapped seats, fortunately the police let us passed the breath test. After I dropped Yogi home in Willetton I drove the car back to Boon's house and went home by foot.

I spent the rest of the night in front of computer and went to sleep around 2am after watching a film titled 'The Thing' with my mom. The film was not finished because the disc was jammed in the middle of the film.

Yongky hired a video titled 'Hugo' it was exactly the same name with my former manager's name at Jo-Joe Pizza. The film effect was good but the story was very boring.
Yongky also washed the dishes in my house's kitchen. After that he tried a massage machine in my house game's room.
I drove him to Cockburn central so he could go home after he picked up his car.
I went home in happiness at 00:30am and decided to sleep straight away.
