happy 25th birthday to me
... and still living like a 4 dollar vic.
It's been a day of near-misses, travel-wise (almost missed my train back from Bandung to Jakarta, because I left my phone at my "Tante Marjie"'s house... then, thought that I was leaving Jakarta for Bangkok/L.A. Tuesday afternoon, when really I am leaving tomorrow afternoon). Natnari "Whan" Sihawong is officially my patron saint of travel, for forcing me to realize the correct date. Also, I can now pack a suitcase at record speed.
But: I have come to realize, just in time, that things could be a lot worse, in all aspects of my life. So, that's a pretty good thing to realize for one's birthday, right? And I declare that this coming year of my life will be tahun vivere pericoloso. The year of living dangerously, as Sukarno says. ~Ambiguities Galore~ And in the meantime...
