Yep yep yep!

Guten Tag, good afternoon, everybody.
How's your day? Fine? Great. I am now re-adapting of school hours. My lectures begin at 8.15 and end at 18.00..almost everyday. Yep yep yep... Then I am planning to continue my Deutsch course twice a week, from 18.15 to 19.45. Yep yep yep.
Go to the campus on the hill early in the morning...just feels like Ninja Hatori (mendaki gunung, lewati lembah...). This is going to be good for body building. I think my thighs are a little bit loosing weight, but somehow my stomach is still moving forward, not even close to six packs...
Yesterday we had to turn our watch one hour back, so time difference from here to my hometown is now 6 hours. When I wake up, my familiy sleep. Yep yep yep...

Electrified

Guten Abend, good evening...
Today is minus one Celcius degree...
I don't know it is officially winter or not, but, dude...the temperature is killing me! It will get worse - colder, starting on November. Brrrr...!!! My friend said last winter in Goettingen reached minus twenty. Okay, that's something even a bear should beware.
Back then in my sunny country, I hated blanket and socks. Now here, those two things are my everyday menu. I really have to adapt fast here.
People start wearing boots. I don't have ones yet, I am planning to buy. Actually I have visited some stores to try them on...but you know, my big calves make it difficult. They won't zip! They get stucked in the half way because the wide of the upper boots don't fit in my legs. Ahh! At this point somehow I envy the girls with slim legs...
But, I don't give up yet...I believe somewhere someplace, there's special boots for me... (means they're not expensive, best quality, great colour and look, anti slip and have wide and flexible body). Yeah...so happy.
I am also planning to buy jacket. I have already got "it" in my mind, but whenever I am thinking about the price, my stomach starts stirring. It's expensive, man! Especially when you convert the price in Rupiahs. You can buy lots, lots and lots of gorengan with it!
I really need to manage my income...or I will have empty piggy belly. Things are relatively expensive here.

By the way, I notice something new happening to me here. I experience many electric static events. My hair stands up when I comb with my hand, also when I stand close to the door or even when I fold my clothes or wearing ones. And my fingers often got "electric shot" when I touch things. Sometimes it really shocks me. You know, you are walking down the stair and suddenly zzrrrtttt!!!! You want to sit down, you pull the chair, and...zzzrrrttttt!!!! You want to ride and you get your bicycle and zzzrrrrtttt!!! What happened, Man...??? Do I have to many electrons or what?

Come to think of it, maybe this is my inner power... You see, when I was a kid, I ever played "the inner power master" with my friend (I was reading too many martial art comics/books). So we sat face to face and took a long deep breath the pushed our palms towards each other (I kind of shook a little bit of my palms so it was really like having the power...), and my friend shouted that she felt her hands burning because my palms created a hot wave!
I didn't know she was lying or not, I was just happy to hear that. Allright...I am Supergirl!

Well...even I am a Supergirl, I was about to cry this morning in the campus because I met dogs... This one I couldn't handle (yet). Maybe I should practice my hot wave again, so when the dogs come to get me I will point my finger and zzzrrrrtttt!!!

Worst After: 29.09.2009

Morgen.
Dude, I ate expired food yesterday, and I did it on purpose!!!!
I am now still waiting for weird symtomps that might come up. But I am okay until this minute... I guess.
The story was, I went shopping yesterday to Asia Laden in Zentrum (oh, it's an undirect advertisement...she should pay me. She indeed gave me her cards to be given to my Indonesian friends so they will go shopping to her store). It was raining, so I couldn't go around Zentrum. I decided to go back to ATW (Albrecht Thaer Weg) - my apartment. Hm...cold weather and drizzling...it would be really nice to cook something hot. I was thinking of cooking "Oseng kacang panjang, kecambah, wortel" and frying chicken, soya bean cake and krupuk! Drooling just thinking of it.
So, I reached home and started preparing the ingredients. Then I found out that my spiced-chicken is expired! It said on the label the expiration date was 29.09.2009. Man, yesterday was 01.10.2009! Aarrgghhh! Two days late. What should I do, what should I do??
I was thinking to throw it out, but, somehow I felt that maybe it would be okay trying to eat it. Jerry Seinfield got me to this! A few days before, I watched his stand up comedy in the internet talking about "expiration date". How could be the producer really sure that his product would be expired on certain date? The product could last longer than that...
And I thought the same thing. Who knew the chicken was still in good condition. Who knew? I wouldn't know if I didn't try it...
Yeah, yeah, I know I sound stupid. But, consider it as an experiment. One time experiment! Of course, I don't want to do that again.
Anyway, I fried the chicken - a little bit longer than it should be, to kill all the germs or stuffs. I tried the first bite and waited for couple of minutes. I didn't feel anything strange, so I decided that my chicken was okay.
So I had lunch...
After that, I waited...and waited...
Until dinner time. I re-fried my chicken (I was silly, huh?), to really make sure that the bacteria or evil things died twice. I had my dinner with the same menu as lunch.
And again, I waited and waited and waited...
My stomach was okay, my body was normal. I didn't puke, I didn't get icthy or bloating. So, I guess everything was fine.
Hopefully....
