Indonesia : Jan 7th @ 1.10 AM
Ah, Indonesia (or Jakarta, to be exact) is so small.... but I don't really believe that "it's a small world after all". No, the world is very big indeed *.... contradictions, anyone? ^^;*
Here goes the story... My mom has been out of town until tomorrow, and there was a wedding reception this evening. My dad's friend's daughter was getting married, and he asked me to accompany him. When my dad mentioned his friend's last name, I was really surprised... because the bride is someone I know of (not exactly my friend though, because I knew her from my ex-boyfriend and we never kept in touch). But a year ago, on my flight back to USA from Indonesia, I sit next to her (Nana is her name) purely by coincidence and we chatted. She told me she was going to get married on Jan 6, 2001.. but I didn't remember until my dad asked me a few days ago. So I went to the wedding reception and she still remembered me =D How an extraordinary coincidence ^_^

That's not the end yet. Turned out that a lot of people I know (from IRC, ICQ, or other friends) that I had or hadn't met before were there. Since Nana had her undergraduate study in Boston, I saw a lot of Boston people (whom I knew from my ex-boyfriend, of course, cause he was one of them). In addition, the groom's brother studied at Purdue University... therefore I also met some Purdue people I know of. It's quite funny, in one occasion I was able to meet people that I never saw for years, or people that I hadn't met for years ^^ So while my dad was busy with his friends and people he knew, I was busy greeting people I knew XD I was very tired though, walking and standing for almost 2 hours and I was wearing high heel shoes, above all -_- I almost couldn't walk on my way out >_<; But I was happy, because I saw a very handsome guy ^_~ (whom I've known for years... just know though, not friends). Absolutely no chance for me though... *deep sigh* Don't ask me why ._.
