*taps the mike*
Ahem! *makes an appearance*
Uh... hi *waves* I'm here.. at tiny State College... all drained & exhausted. Minna wa genki desu ka?
Mwah, this is annoying *throws away the microphone*

Well, here I am :D I and Bayu arrived yesterday in zombie mode: only had very little amount of restless sleep the night before on the 5-hour flight, sleeping position was very uncomfortable & I kept moving around all the time due to the limited space, the plane's air conditioner was too hot on my cabin, connecting plane got cancelled, and had to wait for a total of 5 hours from the first flight to the next connecting flight -_- I was basically sleeping while standing/walking on campus to finish off some errands. And finally collapsed to bed at 5 PM. I just woke up an hour ago *nods*

LA was really fun! There actually was a Catholic retreat/recollection (open for everyone & any religion, if one wants to come) in LA & I was helping with the whole event for two full days. The preparation was very time-consuming and tiring, but I'm so happy that the event was of a great success ^^v Not to mention that I met a lot of Indonesian people there, and the retreat team from Indonesia (included my mom, my second parents, and a couple more people I've already known/very familiar of). I and Bayu were also part of the team. My second parents were the leaders of the team and they gave the lessons, etc with my mom.

I and Bayu will be driving to New York (where my mom & my second parents are at the moment) this morning, after finishing some tasks at home. I will be back here again tomorrow night. Commencement is right in front of my eyes & I haven't prepared much o_O; I've just bought the cap & gown yesterday and I still have to do my OPT (Optional Practical Training) application to be able to work after school. I'll hopefully finish the application today, after I meet my academic adviser.

Melisa, I didn't have time to go to SF while I was in LA. I only had very limited time & it wasn't even enough. Soal nitip... nanti gue pikirin dulu ya, masih sebulan lagi kan.. Thanks yah ^^v And yes, the Alexa who came here before is the same Alexa who owns cherrycoma.net, Untitled webring, etc. Email her next week (after she goes back to Germany) and ask her about it.

Speaking of Alexa, I see that you have met Kate. I'll probably call you tomorrow or the next day. Can't wait to hear the story :3 Oh ya, Bayu has sent the CDs and camera to your cousin's place yesterday. It should arrive before you head back to Germany. Hopefully. Sorry about the lateness.

I'm going to eat now... ja ne!
