Yes, I am still alive
Heya gang - it's been quite a while, I know. My whirlwind trip home included a sick Dad and a wedding, and since I've been back I've been studying my butt off! Next Sunday I head back to Jakarta and the world of 'real' work... but what has me terrified is the fact that I have to sit my language exam on day 2!!!!!!!! EEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeekkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk anyone?!
So this weekend I ditched my plans to go to Kuala Lumpur for a fun weekend with friends and virtuously (and bitterly) knuckled down with my books. It's depressing the number of vocab words that I have learned relating to awful things like beheadings, invasions, explosions, persecution, human rights violations etc. I want to study a happy vocab list tomorrow - I'm thinking economics couldn't possibly be this depressing, right?!
Anyhoo, here are some photos from the wedding I was a bridesmaid at while I was (briefly) back in Oz.
Shortly after I came back I also went on a trip up to see a couple of temples high in the mountains near Solo - it's very Indiana Jones, surrounded by tea plantations and so, so silent (and cold! Wonderfully, wonderfully cold!)... see for yourself!
