JogJarkata trip: Wednesday..

ok... so on this day, we went to visit all 3 orphanages we were planning to go. needed to meet their 'principals' ma.. so we did.. den went to the first home nearby, nice cosy place... spoke to one of the helpers and told her about what we were planning to do den after tt went to have a look around. dropped by the kitchen and this old lady was frying tempe ( fried soya bean.. it has been mixed with like flour? den sliced into thin pieces.) man.. my maid cooked it once for me before.. YUCKS!!! den bro stanely was like "mmmm nice, nice!" haha.. it kinda tastes sour.. tt's why.. if not, it's quite fine lar actually haha..we kinda paid the lady money for the lunch we were gonna serve cos we were kinda supposed to feed children.. part of our mission. haha.. so we paid her and left..

ok.. so we had to visit 2 more homes.. we went to the boy's orphanage first... man.. quiet nice comfy place.. haha.. real peaceful... so we kinda asked questions about the kids and stuff. most of the kids parents were killed by indonesian muslims during the conflict between muslims and christians.. so those children are like real revengefull in their heart, but thank God. the were brought to these orphanages. cos most of the kids wanted to join the 'christian army' to fight the muslims which i feel is soo wrong.. the muslims may have killed their parents but revenge is not the right way.. in the home, i was glad to hear that many of these children have dropped the idea of revenge.. real nice... if not, the war wil never end...

next we went down to the girls home... wah.. a very beautiful place.. haha... not cos there's girls la.. but it's like so clean, and nice and comfy.. girls there are ranging from about 5 yrs to 15 yrs old.. nice young girls.. they were like soooo damn happy to see visitors... i realized something at all the homes i went to, it is their way of like shaking everyone's hand so is like we have shake the hands of like almost all the kids haha... the sister in charge of that home was real nice and she treated us real well... we did the same for the boys and girls home by paying them the money for their food.. den we left..

so after all the visiting was done, we had all the rest of the day for free time. haha.. cool.. went shopping den walked up street to the french restaurant.. amn.. after we ordered our food, it kind of like took us an hour before we recieved it.. wah kaoz!! sianz.... but the food was real nice la.. haha.. i liked it but some of them din really like it especially angel cos the food was spicy.. haha..

but anyway, we walked back and on the way, i saw this stall selling this bag.. i decided to juz have a look den i was like wow.. not bad... quite nice... so i asked dec whether he want to buy. at first he was like aiya... not nice la.. haha.. den i took it up and put it on his hand. after some inspection, he was like "u want to buy or not? if u want, i buy with u" haha.. so of course buy la. but tt guy was selling it at 50k rp... so esther helped us bargain. immediately, she hit 50% down. *wow* haha.. the guy say no 30k rp. den esther say, "put the bags down and go." i was like wah lao.. dun wan la... den she like keep saying so i juz put lor.. den suddenly the guy, "okok 50k rp for 2" hahaha... cool! after tt, i noe how to bargain liaoz. wuahahahahaha!!!
