een andere gewone dag

It is really hot today.

Went to office early in the morning, as usual, but have no passion to work.

Yet, need to prepare something for Dimas to work on.

Back home for lunch, I got a card in my mailbox.

Poststamp: Mannheim, card with Heidelberg picture. From the handwriting, it must be Wolfgang.

es ist wirklich schön, danke!

View accross the Neckar toward the historic centre of Heidelberg,

including Heidelberg Castle in the background

"...on this card, you can see where I live, it's in the middle of the right piece"

Then in the afternoon, went to get my train ticket.

tomorrow will go for Jakarta, have appointment with Andrea, now...I hope there's no more changes.

Got a haircut, I just sat and said, "I need new hairstyle"...knip knip...there...

new hair cut, I love it, short and simple...help me to stay away from blow-dryer.

Muntok - Old Lady with Trace of Beauty and Charm part 2

Walk the City, then you will get the soul… ...and you may find more hidden beneath... Filled with otak-otak and es kacang, we continued our walk around Old Muntok. Few houses from Petak 15, there is a weird signboard : " Lorong Babi" . We laugh at the funny words in the beginning and follow the direction it shows. We found a newly built kiosk in a dead-end narrow alley. In there, 3 men are selling pork. They were smiling and told us to come in. I asked them if this place is new and they approve. "We are moved here when they (the government) move the old market to the new one across the river" I could see the new market from their stall…across the river. All of you are not joining the others to the new market? "No, this is the location for us" I didn't ask further. It is clear to me. Johannes Widodo, our Keynote Speaker, coined "Meeting Pot" for Muntok. According to him, differences for centuries manage to live side by side in

Some background of the workshop can be found in mAAN Mentok Tin Mining City Design Workshop official website . Muntok's golden moment was back in 18th century until the day of New Order, where national development was centralized in Java. Similar to other places outside Jawa, Muntok losing its importance, despite its richness as on of Tin mines in Bangka Island. Yesterday I didn't manage to walk around the city much. Yet, thru stories from Brain Team we can quickly assume the city loses it's main energy: Youth. *it will be really nice to have more facts from detailed demography statistic data...I will post it as soon as we get the data.
