This post is dedicated to the many many thoughts I have and the urge to dump these on to a journal in the most unstructured way. With no order of importance

On Friendship
I had a very interesting discussion the other day with a best-friend of mine. I then realised why she is one of my best-friends, although time, space and little lack of communication in the past 6 years we still value everything about each other as ever. People come and go, but there are some rare people who will stick by you no matter what. You just need to hold on to these people.

On Family
Ah, this one has just gone completely out of control. The bottom of the story is that I need to know how to bridge inter-generation and inter-cultural gap? Or just simply bridging parents-child relationship. Parents, eh? Cant live with them, cant live without them.

On Home
Related to the thoughts above - the definition of home has become quite blurry to me. Home is where the heart is so they say. Where your family and friends are. Where you feel comfortable being 'at home'. Where would it be? Jakarta, Christchurch or Wellington? Ten years ago it was Jakarta. Four years ago it was Christchurch. Last year it was Wellington. Now? I cannot see myself living in these cities in the near future, for one reason or another. Weird, huh? Leading a nomad-life my Mum would say. Well, so be it.

On History Repeats Itself
Sometimes you wished that you foresee situations in your dream so that you can do it differently in real life and make things right. Everything that's going on right at the moment in my life is a repeat of the same thing 6 years ago. I dont' know what or how but it is actually happening. Different place, different names of course but all the same. Is it any easier? No, it's not. It is heart-breaking to see the same ego and childish attitude took over and ruin pretty much everything. It's making me all mellow and homesick. :'(
