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.

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.

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.

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.
