a Post from Indonesia….

For those who’s been keeping up with my blog, I’m real sorry for not updating it in a while. The reason is coz I am currently in Indonesia (surprised?) yea, I was too for a lil while. It’s been a while since I’m here…well 4 years is quite a while for me to be back here..and it still feels just as weird as ever…but I think I’m getting used to being Indonesians around me again ..

I flew here on March 1st from Doha..and got here on the 2nd…the best thing was that nobody knew that my mom and I were coming so it was good to surprise all the relatives…but more importantly, the reason we’re back here is coz both my grand dad/mommy are sick…first, my grandpa was hit with a mild stroke…few days after my mom and I got here, my grandma’s blood sugar went up to 600…and she has a stroke close to where her memory is located in the brain…so she didn’t really recognize me wen I first got here…she was admitted 2 days after I got there…it was a really difficult nite for us all at home…seeing her going into seizures several times…but we can only thank God that it seems like He had things in place to ease my grandma’s transport to the hospital, etc….she’s back to normal now…and my grandpa is still not able to walk but I’m sure he will soon….please keep them in your prayers (I appreciate it!!)

Anyways, Indonesia…well what’s new for me:
1. I got to spent some time with Raymond ‘Emon’ Sukmadjajajajajajaja hehehehe…it’s nice to finally meet him again..and I got to meet his gf, Jennifer. We had dinner and coffee together…good times…hope to see them again sometime before I leave…
2. I met with old friends and relatives from all over the place….twas good to show up at Sumber Kasih, the Church I gew up in, and met up with so many old friends…I only wish I can spend some more time with them…maybe next time (whenever that’d be!)
3. The reunion of the ‘Sons and Daughters of the Sahidi’s’….it’s amazing…it’s so nice to see them all together after a while and being successful people..so happy for them…just hope they’ll bond with each other more and more….
4. Meeting up with new friends and relatives…. i.e., people from om Obe’s office….t’Dewi, etc….Cecille.Calvin….so many more lah….

Well, I think that’s the update I have from Indo for now…lets just say it’s ‘to be continued’…..prolly as soon as I get back to Doha this Sunday ….in the meantime….will be praying for everyone!!! and hope u will do the same too….God bless!!

ps: no worries…pix from Indo will be uploaded to Flickr!! ….
