Caller: I'm Sam Wan, and I need to talk to Annie Wan! It's urgent!
Operator: I know, you are someone and you want to talk to anyone! But, what's this urgent matter about, Sir?

Optus - Indosat ... What is happening here ?

It has been over 2 weeks since I started to have problem with my sim card provider. I thought it was only because I had a bad coverage so Mark couldn't ring me. He said he got a message telling my number was no longer disconnected every time he tried to ring me. But the next day, didn't get better at all so we asked to our each provider about what happened. My provider is Indosat - Starone and Mark using Optus.

Each of them told us that they were going to find out the problem and fix it soon. Starone told me to wait for 3 days and they said they would let me know about what happened afterward. But I didn't get any calls from them after 3 days so I rang them again in the 4th day. And guess what... I had to wait for 3 more days !



The last time I rang them, they told me that it might be Optus that has the problem. They said they couldn't even find any incoming calls recorded in my number (incoming calls from Aussie). I couldn't believe it coz Mark rang me almost every day before we got this problem. So I told Mark to ask about this to Optus. But Optus then told Mark that they have an agreement with Indosat so they they thought we shouldn't get this problem.



Optus tried to ring me few times to see if they had problem to connect to my number. And it was working. I got their phone calls about 2 or 3 times. But wonder why Starone said they still couldn't see any incoming calls from aussie recorded in my number.

I currently have long distance relationship with Mark, so we really need this problem to be fixed soon. And it has been over 2 weeks for us to wait. I feel pity if I have to find another provider coz I honestly already feel comfortable enough with Starone before I got this problem.

Well, just hope Starone or Optus will find out the problem soon so we don't have to move to any other provider.

Schools Parade

Kiki's kindergarten school is a private school run by Nasiyatul Aisiyah, a women's organization under the Muhammadiyah. And today, almost all schools under Muhammadiyah attended the schools parade approaching 46th Congress in Yogyakarta.

Lots of kids were there. From kindergarten kids to high school kids, and even adults from few organizations under Muhammadiyah.

Older kids and adults were walking from Kota Barat square to Gladak circle, and it was about 6 to 7 km. So thank God Kiki is only kindergarten kid so he didn't have to walk that far, and that means neither did I... :D All kindergarten kids only had to stay arround Gladak circle, and played drum band there, while waiting for the parade to get there.







Kiki lost his 2 upper teeth and another one on the bottom. Looks funny though :D







These 2 cousins are now in elementary school, so they had to walk in the parade.

Javanese Wedding

Pheewww... I finally get back to my best friend ever ... yeah ... my computer I mean :D

My neighbour across my house is having a wedding party for their daughter tomorrow. And as the other Javanese wedding (I live in Java Island, Indonesia), we have a sort of small party in the night before the wedding day. It is called "Midodareni". The word midodareni is taken from widodari (Kawi Language) or bidadari (Indonesian) that means nymph in English. It's a myth in Java that in the night before the wedding, nymphs from heaven are going down to the earth, go to the bride's house to make her more beautiful and perfect in the wedding day.

I live in a narrow alley and the social life is very good in my neighborhood. We help each other. And tonight, we let my neighbor across my house to use our house to prepare the foods for this Midodareni party. Many people from my neighborhood were here tonight. Girls were cooking and preparing foods, boys were looking after the equipment including chairs, tent, and other equipment needed for the party tonight.

I have 2 neighbours getting married this month. One of them was getting married last week. Helping neighbours to prepare their wedding has reminded me about my failed marriage. But nothing to regret. A past is just the past. And now I'm reaching my future. And hopefully, Mark is going to be a part of my future.

Here, I share one of my nightmare pictures, which is my wedding picture, LOL :D It was a traditional Javanese wedding ceremony. I was me sitting there waiting for the groom.

Hoo Are You Tuesday?

This is the first party I'm joining in this blogasphere. And it's called Hoo Are You Tuesday? Well, now let me answer these questions let us know each other better.

1. If you could choose one of your personality traits to pass on to your children, what would it be?

Respectful.

2. What's your favorite candy bar?

Sorry, don't have any. I don't really like candy :D

3. If you could vacation anywhere in the world, where would it be?

Australia ! To see Mark's family and all his friends, go to quiz night every Monday night and go to football every Saturday. Well, I don't really like football, but I'm sure I will enjoy it.

4. What 3 adjectives would you use to describe yourself?

I'm a quiet girl who doesn't like to talk much, on time, and trustworthy.

5. In one word, how would your best friend describe you?

Stubborn :D

Sorryyyyyy.....

Just like I said yesterday, I wanted some me time today. And I did get it! Guess what, having a nap is my favorite me time lol. Maybe because I often stay up too late so I'm easy to fall asleep in day time.

I chatted with Mark before, and promised him to get back on messenger after I woke up. But I did enjoy my me time today ! I slept too much for sure. It was more than 3 hours, hahaha... Mom then woke me up at 4 o'clock in afternoon. But, Mark, sorry I didnt get a chance to chat coz you know, it was already too late to start cooking :D

And, sorry about my silly provider ok? Hope tomorrow it will get better coverage so you can ring me early in morning.

Busy Weekend

Pheewww...! Just had another busy day in this weekend. Had something to be done this morning, and then went to swim with Kiki. Can I say it swim when I can't swim? lol. Well, at least we had fun there, even only playing water in the pool. Sorry but I didn't take any pictures when we were in the swimming pool. Only got this one. It's Kiki when we were about to go back home.


It's Kiki when we were about to go back home.

Oh, by the way, we went there with Kiki's friend and his family. Was there for about 2 hours and then bought 2 burgers from Mister Burger to bring home for lunch on the way home..


Bought lunch here.

Had few minutes to get some rest though, but then, again..., got something to be done. And was just finished right before I write this post. Aaarrgghhh...! Can I get some me time tomorrow? So tired after been busy these few days! (Stop complaining would you!) K okay... No complaining! But still I think some 'me time' tomorrow :D

Well, no matter you had a busy or a relaxing weekend, just hope you guys had a great awesome weekend. Happy Sunday everyone!

Mental Disorder - Depression

I started to search and read tons of articles related with DEPRESSION since the last few days. Its because we have a relative who is suffering from mental disorder. Its my uncle.

I wouldn't feel embarrassed to tell it here. Uncle has no family. He lived with a friend and had a job for living before he got this mental disorder. But of course it all ended up now. Now we have to help him because my dad is the only brother he has in this town where we live.

It was about one or two months ago when a neighbor came and told us that she saw my uncle walking like someone who was confused. He even walked closer to a someone's car and tried to enter it. My parents then picked him up and told him to stay in our house for a while. When my mother asked why did he try to enter someone's car, he said that he was being chased by someone who was tall and big, so that he tried to ask for a help from someone who owns that car.

We then realized, there was something wrong with my uncle. He stayed in our house that night. The next day, my parents let him go out when he asked for permission. That's because at he looked normal. But in the afternoon, in heavy rain, again, a neighbor told us that she saw my uncle sitting in front of my other neighbor's house, under the rain.

My parents then got there straight away to pick him up, but he refused when my parents asked him to go home. So that my parents had to ask for help from someone to force him to go home. He went stayed in our house again that night. And since then, things get worse from day to day.

Before I continue this story, maybe one of you is a Muslim, and believes that the spirits (jinn) can permeate the body of someone who is in a condition of mind is empty. At first, we believe that it happened to my uncle because he told us about someone tall and big was chasing him. And then, we decided to help him using "ruqyah".

But someone who helped us to do that ruqyah said, if ruqyah couldn't make my uncle better, we are suggested to help my uncle using medical way. Finally, we sent my uncle to a psychiatrist who is also a friend of my other aunty (mom's sister). He was asked to stay in there and was treated for 10 days.

During that time, we were only given two times a chance to visit my uncle. After 10 days, my uncle allowed to go home, to continue the treatment at home. But unfortunately, only after a few days later, my uncle forced to go back to live with his friend. And too bad that we found it later he never took the medicines. Until finally, on Sunday uncle's friend came to us and complained that my uncle messed up the place where they live.

My mom and I went there to see. And oh my God, the place was really messy. Former timber roof was strewn everywhere. And also there were three pieces of concrete stones as big as the CPU strewn there. You wouldn't believe that it was my uncle who did it, because he is physically looks very weak. But he did that!

My dad finally forced him to go back home. And last Tuesday, things was even worse. We finally decided to send him again, to the biggest mental hospital in our city.

Just hope my uncle will be hopefully a lot better when he's allowed to leave hospital. Because, believe me, it's not easy to have someone with a mental disorder in the house. Have to be extra patient.

So, anyone of you have the same experience? Share your thought please, because even today we are still not sure, can uncle back to 100% normal? Or he will need help for the rest of his life.
