Third Culture Friendship

I just got home from a pretty long day and I’m so happy to be flopped in my bed (and possibly watch Personal Preference–see post below). There are some things going on in my life right now that I don’t really agree to, hopefully these “things” are for the better and will give me a few answers I need in life i.e. where I’m headed, what I’m supposed to do, how do I breakaway and everything in between. I don’t wanna dwell too much on it because I’m trying to practice living in the moment, so let’s just leave it as it is for now. While on the way home last night with bff to drive Paul & Patrick after hanging out, the four of us got into a conversation about our friendship. I have always called these people “The Core” because I consider these people as my core support system in Jakarta. We were talking about how much we missed hanging out especially since everyone’s so far from each other, or doing their own …

Minimal Saturday

After deciding on countless themes and designs for this blog, I finally settled with this one. It’s white, it’s clear, no fuss with just a humble colorful banner like the one above. I named it Infinitely Interesting after an Incubus song called Echo which says: Could you show me dear Something I’ve not seen Something infinitely interesting It sorta means that I hope with this blog I get to unravel all the interesting things and hopefully share them making it infinitely interesting. I also wanted to find an excuse to quote my favorite band of all time and its amazing lyricist Brandon Boyd and that part of the song just spoke to me.

I’ve been friends with these guys for so long and they’re the ones who made me get through most …

Seventeen

Please forgive me if I’m not always blogging anymore. I have lost resources on computers but soon, in about a month or two, I will be back on track again. I’ll just be doing the updates now and then, but not always. Probably just once a week or even just once every two weeks. Yesterday, it was my birthday. Hehe. Spent it with my family first, then friends. This is the first birthday after a very long time that I didn’t spend it with my mom and I was quite sad, but hey, it’s my birthday after all. I got 3 cakes. Two round chocolate monsters one, and one huge ORANGE cake full of icing from my lil cute cousins. It was just a simple birthday actually, just went to the mall with my 2 of my friends, I went shopping of course, then treated them to Cafe Havana. We were supposed to watch Stars Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith, but even though there were 3 cinemas for it, the line was like …
