I'm going back to jakarta this Friday, and it's been hectic for the last week and strapping myself to that plane still seem to be weeks away. Work had been blaarrghghghgh, for want of a better adjective. Home life had been non-existent except for food and shelter.

the land of pollution and trees, of mangoes and MSGs, of traffic jams and 3-wheeled vehicles, of satay sauces and chili-infested dishes, of laughable politics and payable radicalism.. rejuvenation indeed
