Crisis in Jakarta

Woke up this morning, to my horror, it's raining.
And it's raining heavily.
Worse still, I remembered it started raining since last night!

In KL, you might expect something like a flash flood in a few major roads.
It's bad.
That is KL, you might say.

In Jakarta, things are a little different.
You get nothing less than a city-wide flood.
It's freaking-horribly-crazy bad!
That is Jakarta, the locals nod in approval.

A quick check on my apartment's balcony, and saw the road in front became a canal.

Turned on the TV, and virtually every TV station is reporting about flood throughout Jakarta.

Best still, they kept on repeating the footage of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono's car being stuck in a traffic jam.
Its amuzing to see the poor fella switching cars(from S-Class to some SUV) in slippers in the middle of the road.

Anyway, the main point is, I got a plane to catch tomorrow.

I need to go back to KL and then Ipoh to celebrate "Imlek" (CNY as referred by the Indonesians).

And the airport is closed!!!!!

I don't want to celebrate Imlek....I want to celebrate Chinese New Year!

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, despite the horrible flood and traffic jam, I managed to get to Soekarno-Hatta Airport and return to Kuala Lumpur at the same day.

Gladfully......I hope not to return to Jakarta again!

Super Heros of Bandung

Annoying.
Do you know how irresponsible is it to leave a comment:" XXX, update , update!"

What is that suppose to be?
It's a place for comments, not for instructions!
I don't like that.
This is my blog, "MY" blog....and I can do whatever with it!

I'm so pissed, I ran away to Bandung.
Things were not so well, as I need to wake up by 6.30am to catch the 8.00am "travel" to Bandung from Kelapa Gading.

You just know the day will not be a good one when you have breakfast at some place with a name like this......

Ok....for those who don't know...it literally translates as :" Karapitan Unlucky Meatballs".
How lucky can one be after eating those unlucky meatballs?
Worse still, they even differentiate GOOD unlucky meatball from BAD unlucky meatballs.

Then I was like a mad, excited 5 year old who keeps on screaming out loud the only characters he knew .

" Wow, Spiderman!"

"It's a bird, its a plane, no, it's Superman!"

"OMG! It's Wolverine! Highlander! Terminator!"

(What do they have in common that makes them stand together anyway?)

I lost control......
WTF.......what one earth is SonGoKu standing besides Bruce Lee and Wolverine?"

Anyway, these are just the attention seeker of the factory outlets concentrated on Jalan Chihampelas.
I got so frustrated with all those shit, I just head home and update this blog without buying anything in Bandung.
So, are you happy I updated my blog?

Now go do your work, and don't post me instructions!

and no, I did not go up on the London Eye!
