what is it like being an indonesian?

I was born in Indonesia almost 23 years ago. My Dad is a Chinese and my Mom is Indonesian. So no wonder, I don't have Chinese eyes & skin. At first, I don't mind about it at all. Some called my skin is exotic, some hated it, and some don't give a shit. As for me, I was wondering why I'm different from my friends at elementary school, but then I found out & I don't give a shit. I was perfectly fine with my own skin until one day I applied my American visa and realized how BAD our image as Indonesian in American's eyes. We described as "alien" who want to travel to America to be a "smuggler". Thanks to bad publicity such as terrorist thingy. Not once, not twice, but several bombs have exploded in Bali, in Jakarta, etc. In short, my visa was rejected. I feel terrible to see how bad Indonesian in the world's eyes.. Despite our rich natures, Indonesia have a lot troubles inside. I don't have to write this sensitive issue one by one...

my life so far..

Been leaving this lovely blog for ages make me hard to start over. Many things happened in my life and -geez- I started to forget about em. Remember my short-period-memory-disorder? Err God I don't know where to begin. Oh I had a trip to Singapore with my Mom on last February, just for fun and all we did was shopping & eating. It's kinda different cos we never traveled together, just two of us. So, our relationship kinda get tested. I'm not that close wif my mom u know. Dieter celebrated his 24th birthday on February too. I surprised him with the customize cake, a cake that i really called his own, Valentino Rossi theme. Can't forgot his expression that night. I gave that cake right on 12AM, when he entered my room, I turned off the lamp and I hold the cake with the candles (damn it was heavy!) and I sang "happy birthday" to him. He was like, "u gotta b kidding me!" LOL. I bought him a PSP Portable as a gift, the gadget that he's been wanti...
