The Art of Rain, created on 02/04/07

I live in the tropical weather that is for sure! There is hot season, and wet season! What a weather huh? We are now in the very very wet season of the year! And comes along with the wet wet weather is always wet wet water that actually as I am typing this blog, has covered 60% of my beloved city Jakarta. Sound scary? Well....you have to experience the inexperience yourself! As for me, this is the 1st flooded season of my life! It began Friday, when all of sudden, I couldn't go to work, due to flood every where, and my tiny car (not the batman car!)Unfortunately couldn't get through the almost 50 cm water that has been flooding everywhere, at least on my way to my mother house. So, I decided to head home instead to go forward.

Luckily, my house is in the safe side, well, I shouldn’t say that, but at least at this time, my house is still dry, we still have lots too eat, the vegetables vendor is still pushing their cart to sell the vegetables, and also the chicken vendor. So, at this point, I am still okay. My families are okay too, even though my grandmother is a bit concern about my situation (I live not that close to her), and she rather keeps me close with her, but then she had no electricity and running water on the day that I moved in with her (Saturday), so, I decided to come back home and stay close with Tommy and Leia.

Despite of the natural disaster that I am in right now, I feel relieve that I don’t have to go to work. I have more time to play and teach Leia lots of stuff. She has grown so much for these past months.

She talks non stop at this time, ordering the adults around her to sit, eat, drink, etc. She hums a song, dances a silly dancing, and works her finger to make her master piece with paints! She loves to paint, and she can ask for it! She is so much fun at this time.

As far as for me, I think life goes on then…Some how I feel, I always choose the wrong place to live, but it ended up well also some how.
