3 days later...

I am starting to calm down...

Yes... I have spent 3 nights sleeping in my new bed in Jakarta...

I learnt some things over the previous few nights:

1) My father (dear Papa) can actually SMS in SMS lingo! I was way surprised when I recieved an SMS from him to remind me to LOCK MY DOOR. Yes Papa... I check before I sleep everynight... please don`t worry...

2) Yoghurt and museli are pricey in Jakarta.. though one can always opt for the locally made yoghurt instead of the typical Bulla and Yoplait

3) I am in heaven... FRUITS heaven! The sweetest and freshest fruits everyday.. and I had Rujak Buah (Fruit Rojak) for lunch today and it was YUMMY!

4) To SMS to Singapore.. I need to affix the +65 in front of the numbers! Blur me forgot and was wondering why Mal did not reply!

5) Going to the gym is a stressful affair. As an avid OUTDOOR jogger, I had my experience on the treadmill yesterday.. and after 45 minutes when I stepped off the treadmill, I had a positively surreal experience. My legs went wobbly and I felt like I was floating. The gym is very well-equipped with ... hunks? eheheheh... More on this soon. Wait for it...

6) I heard horror stories about Jakarta from friends and reading forums on the Internet. Well, I am not going to be complacent... but I am becoming a security freak. Clasp my handbag tightly, always ensure that my windows and door is secure. Check and check and check... better to be safe than sorry.

Short post... I will do a descriptive narrative post entry tomorrow! And... try to post some pictures using my phone's camera!

Wait for it....

Just to let the entire world know...

I was so glad to talk to Mal and Mummy just now... They both sound so happy and were laughing. Good to know that my presence is not very sorely missed! Kidding... love the Tans loads!
