So i've started buying albums since i reached here. they're cheaper here then in sg by about $5 and hell i'm satisfied with the albums i bought.

Bloc Party kicks ass in their new album. The sound of their album is more expansive this time compared to 2005's Silent Alarm some of the tracks have some influence from
Radiohead's Kid A and Amnesiac era. This album isn't as brash or immediate as the band's earlier work, but its gradual move from alienation to connection and hope is just as bold as their Silent Alarm, and possibly even more loud and clear.

Arctic Monkeys album this time is 'Favourite Worst Nightmare' is a bold, beefed-up and brilliant return with a strong starting track "brianstorm" to get the mood going and fittingly, great tracks in between and the final track, "505", is the tear-jerker finale that has you floating from the theatre as the credits roll.

Incubus's album has heavy ballads, radio friendly tracks, atmospheric tracks and hard alt-rock tracks.

For Travis's album take it as a simple collection of adept songs, however there’s very little to find fault with.

For Damon Albarn's The Good The Bad and the Queen, I Quote from a review "You're left both marvelling at the album itself, and considering what a unique figure Albarn cuts. If you doubt it, try to imagine the result if any of Britpop's other major players had assembled a supergroup and made an anti-war concept album. Now take your fist out of your mouth."

So far the lowest point of my entire time in indonesia started yesterday night. it all started when i had to remove solid waste as fast as possible after buying bread for today's breakfast. my stool was all watery which meant i had diarrhoea. kept going back to dumb my stool out. then i felt that i wanted to vomit, so yea i vomited out my lunch, dinner, and everything in between. Huge mess. i think it was because of the veggies i ate for lunch

It didnt stop there. i when back and forth alternating between shitting and vomitting for the whole night. A total of 4 times each. This morning the whole process continued. what made it worst was the housekeeper asking for electric bill and water bill which is like WTF LAH! the company paid for the rent already and they still want to rob money from us. Ouh yeah forgot mentioning i got fever also, which i think i sweated it out on the way to work. Yes work. decided to go to the office rather then stay and home and breath the stale air in that room.

I have to replenish my bodily fluids and my nutrients in my body that was lost. for that i bought pocari sweat which is better then plain water(lead me to vomit even further).

so yea right now im in the office waiting for Friday prayers and taking half day off. But ill be staying in the office because i brought all my stuff for the weekend and ill be waiting for my uncle to pick me up.

Sorrow drips into your heart through a pinhole
Just like a faucet that leaks and there is comfort in the sound
But while you debate half-empty or half-full
It slowly rises: your love is gonna drown

Spent friday night alone in the hostel, wei long's auntie picked him up ard 9pm. My uncle cant pick up because he was about 3 hours away from jakarta and it was late already. Didnt go to work on Saturday morning because it wasnt compulsory. My uncle picked me up on saturday morning. We took the bus to his house cause my aunt needed to use the car for an event.

The bus stop was like 25 mins walk from my hostel which was okay since im getting used of walking alot when i go to work and when i go back to my hostel. We didnt wait long for the bus. The bus didnt stop, instead it slowed down to not such a slow
speed. We had to run and jump into the back door of a moving bus. hahah. it was hilarious for me cause you cant do this in sg.

The bus ride lasted an hour plus. The bus was air-conditioned which was good for me. some of the seats were torn. I had the honor of sitting on a very loose seat(it seemed like i was humping something or something was humping me).The bus driver was like crazy or something, honking at other motorists and pedestrians, driving like a mad man on several occasions cutting other people's lane and driving slow on occasions to drop of passengers and pick up passengers.

Throughout the bus ride a number of peddlers and buskers came on and went off. 1st peddler sold balloon toys shaped like a deer, wanted to buy it but my uncle wont let me :( hahah. 1st busker carried a guitar and played a generally nice tune and sang a song which i think its his original. 2nd Busker carried a very small guitar and the sound it produced was like those hawaiian jumpy tunes. The 2nd peddler sold Spiderman 3 DVDs!! It went for 5000rupiah which is like $1, and i didnt buy it!
OMG!!! i so hate myself for not buying the dvd.

When it was time to alight we had to shout at the bus driver to open the door which he did. my uncle went down 1st. After her went down the bus accelerated rapidly and i had to crouch and jump at the same time, i almost fell down on the road. I was like wtf? i was pissed.

Anyhoo we had the choice of employing the help of motorcyclist "taxis" to reach my uncle's house, but since i had loads of stuffs with me i chose to walk. Rain kida cleared up a bit and the walk took bout 15 mins.

Rested for several hours. Then played about an hour of table tennis with my uncle which was great. Ended the day by watching the movie "Ali" about Muhammad Ali.

Stayed at my uncle's house over the weekend. Went my other aunty's house on saturday to chill with my cousin. Played PS2 games till like siao. Sunday went out to this mall called Plaza Senayan(A bit like Takashimaya). Went to Metro and got some work clothes.
at night I ate satay padang which was extremely spicy but also extremely delicious.

Nothing much to write about for work. bahh.
