Family Pic on Christmas

Trip to Toraja

Just want to share some pics that were taken during my trip on September 2011. Those pics were taken using my mobile phone.

his dream house

I found this picture on our dining table, ...oooh he changes his mind, he wants to be an architect!
Are you sure, my son?
My suggestion : If you want to be a photographer or a chef or popcorn seller, you don't need to learn architecture. But... actually it really help me to learn and understand about colour, composition, lighting, and some technical things :D

Weekend Story

Sabtu, kita berdua (mom&daughter) berangkat berenang (it was 7.20am). Sejak berhenti jogging-walking, saya kembali pada aktivitas renang 3x seminggu.
Pagi ini Patricia pasang target berenang 1000m (terakhir renang cuma 800m), dan saya pun mencetak rekor baru 3600m! (2 hari yang lalu baru 3400m). Setelah itu kita belanja ke supermarket dan lunch bareng.

Sudah beberapa bulan yang lalu, Patricia bilang akan kebutuhannya akan laptop untuk dipakai di sekolah (dan di rumah tentunya). Selama ini anak-anak pake PC di rumah aja, dan kami belum merencanakan untuk membelikan laptop khusus untuk dia.
Akhirnya, hari Minggu... sepulang Gereja kita (setelah saya dan papanya berembuk beberapa hari sebelumnya walau sebenarnya kami sudah beberapa kali survey laptop yang ringan dan sesuai budget untuk digunakan anak kelas 6 SD) kami memutuskan untuk membelikan laptop yang dia butuhkan lengkap dengan install 'Parental Controls' ha..ha..ha...
Sampai rumah, malam hari... dia mandangin si laptop, katanya,"I still couldn't believe that I have my own laptop". Jawab saya,"Patricia, you have to feel greatful, I have had my very first laptop when I was 35, and you ..." oooh.
