Last preparation and Chinese New Year Eve

Yesterday I meet My big brother, He just come back from China 2 days ago. We go to Mega Mall Pluit to buy some stuff for Me and buy a slop of cigarette kretek Dji Sam Soe for Johan.

After shopping we have lunch at Solaris. That day there is a Samsi show at Mega Mall it's quite crowded, because all people want to watch the show. After finishing lunch I go around searching for Salon, I want to get a hair cut now because I don't want to spend 14-30 euro just for a hair cut . But.. there is always a 'but' all salon is so crowded! guess all people wants to look beautiful and handsom on Chinese new year

Giving up looking for salon, We go to Puri Mall. I want to get some gloves but unfortunately the shop only have one color (Gray) and I don't like the color.

I also try to get hair cut at Puri Mall, but it's just the same as Mega Mall, all salon is crowded.. $h*7.. Ok then.. no hair cut!

Got the ticket!

Today I have a small chat with Johan using Yahoo Messenger, talking about Netherland. He giving Me some links about Amsterdam's airport Schiphol, Eindhoven website and Nuenen website.

Although Johan doesn't smoke, He still asking Me to bring Him a slop of kretek Dji Sam Soe for Indonesian that already stay there.

I'm quite impressed with todays QnAp Asia office internet connection, it's so fast that i can make a call using Yahoo voice chat. Well.. Johan having some problem with His microphone so He can't talk back, only hear Me speaking

On the evening, about 5.30 pm Ronny came to the office and give Me My ticket. I'll go to Netherland on 29 January (Chinese New Year ) and back to Indonesia on 25 April - 3 months in Netherland.

I'm feeling happy and excited but in the same time feeling nervous too because this is the first time i go to foreign country and it's far from Indonesia.

Many thanks to everybody at QnAp Asia especially Ki, Ronny, Willy and Liza. Also thanks to Johan at QnAp iT BV.

Wish Me Luck

A Call From Netherland

At 7.00 pm I with friends from QnAp go out and having dinner together, we eat toats near Citra Land (CL) Mall. After finishing dinner We go to Citra Land Mall, I want to buy a small bag to carry things that should be handy for My journey to Netherland. On the other side Budi want to see His 'favourite' Gundam things

When I was in CL, My big brother call Me asking when I'll going to Netherland and giving some tips. He said that I don't need to buy a small bag because it's not too safe to carry passport in it, also I should buy a moisturizer because cold weather can make skin to be dry.

And suddenly there is a call from 'Unknown' - well it's what shown on My cell - I pick up the call and.. it's Johan calling from Netherland guess He read My email

I just know now that Johan have a nice voice or is it because My phone have a good speaker? O2 Xphone II rocks!

Johan call Me to confirm My flight schedule and telling Me that He'll making sure that somebody or Him self will pick Me up at Amsterdam airport. Okay.. thanks Johan, also for the tips

Yippee.. I get VISA to Netherland

Today Mr. Kris - person who helping Me apply My visa - came to QnAp office and give My visa.

After I get the visa, I call Ronny to inform Him and He said He'll confirm My flight ticket. Few minutes later He call Me that My flight ticket already confirmed.

I'll leave Indonesia Tanah Airku - My homeland - on 29 January and arrive at Amsterdam on 30 January.

This will be My first time go to foreign country, the longest flight and the first time I celebrate Chinese new year on plane hehe.. yea.. I wish I can go to Netherland earlier so I can celebrate Chinese new year in Netherland, but it's Okay..

Hey.. I almost forgot.. My flight must transit first in Taipei for one hour hehe.. so may be I can see how Chinese people celebrate new year there.

I need to inform Johan Notenboom in Netherland that I'll arrive in Amsterdam on 30 January, but unfortunately He is not at QnAp iT BV office, so I just email Him, hope He read the email soon.

Shopping for Netherland

Last night I go to Taman Angrek Mall, thanks to Adi and Budi who drop Me by at TA

I bought two pants, one for working and one for jogging (this is a tips from My friend Jose at Netherland, because Netherland is very cold now so I will need a double pants to warm up My legs)
