Busy...?!

Tomorrow is my departure day!
Oh God...
Packing is a pain,
Baggage weight limit is annoying,
And saying goodbye again and again is too hard.
With no time to really have fun,
Is there any chance to write?
May my trip be safe
And hopefully I'll manage there

Arrgh my stress came out the strange way. What the heck is up with that prose?

Anyway, before I forgot yesterday when I was returning home from my cousin's wedding luncheon we (mom, dad and I) saw what we called "penjambretan dari motor". It happened to someone in a bajaj in front of our car. At first we were puzzled and aghast when the one who tried to snatch fell of the motor and almost got hit by the bajaj. The guy's friend rode on, and soon the guy who was left out on the road was picked up by another motor with two people on it, most probably his friends.

I've heard the same thing happened to my chemistry teacher. She lost her bag and monthly salary because she was snatched when she was in a bajaj (her finger also got hurt because it was stuck on the handle of her bag). I never thought I'd witness the same thing.
How dangerous Indonesia is sometimes. We shan't let our guard down.

Many people are desperate to do that kind of things. But I don't think I can fully blame them for what they did. All they want is to live, but poverty drove them to do unthinkable things. My blame goes back to the system and those who operate it wrongly. Those self absorbed corupting higher ups should be fired and punished severely. It wont be easy to fix the situations in Indonesia.

Sigh, anyway now that I'm actually playing on my computer, I need to rearrange the data I'll be bringing with me to Australia.
