Language

I feel like a caveman having to communicate with the indonesians, I have such a small vocabulary :S, I am getting better and can speak very basically "Di mana bapak?" "Bapak Di Rumah" etc
We played soccer today which was fun, I was the goalie and a pretty good one if I do say myself :)
I find it very interesting how much people burn here, we were walking past the university and they were burning piles of leaves, very casually too.
I'm getting very used to "Photo Mr.?"

If you have any questions that you would like to ask just send me an email at Jeremy@Thorne.id.au

Football and Celebrities

My family and I went to see a Football(Soccer) match, Indonesia vs Brazil, which was quite a boring match until it got to half time and then both teams scored a goal. The score was 2 to 1 in brazils favour and then in the last few minutes the indonesians scored a goal but it turned out to be an offside. There were seats that cost 40,000Rp or there were seats that were 500,000Rp, I wonder which ones we chose :)

There were so many people wanted there photo taken with us and I felt like a celebrity, pose for the camera!

Lovely Rain...

It is amazing watching the downpour outside, with lightning flashing and thunder booming.

Motorbike

We final got some means of transport, a small black motorbike. It has a very small speed range. Not like the bikes we get in Australia which can go really fast.

Pasar!

Today I was off to the Pasar, Helping my mum buy some fruit and vegetables this morning. We caught the oplet to the pasar. Things we bought were very cheap when you compare them to Australia. We bought a pineapple for 10,000Rp ($1) and 7 tomatoes for 7,000Rp (70c).

Night Soccer and Fireworks n Stuff

Played soccer with some of the kids from around our neighbourhood last night, just showed me how terrible I am. I had fun still, bit sore this morning :)

It never ceases to amaze me how cool fireworks are, especially when you can let off your own. It also shows why they were banned in Australia, they are so dangerous :S


It's a bit late now but I've been to the twin towers!
