Happy Thanksgiving


We talked about being thankful in Biblical Studies and then we made thankful turkeys with our hands.


The other day I was at the mall and the restaurant that we ate in had a fall tree in the restaurant. It wish I had a sweater, there was a slight autumnal breeze.

Elephant Massage

I got a massage from an elephant yesterday at Taman Safari. I went with 4 other friends to spend some time with the animals. Elephants give really hard massages, their trunks are very powerful. We went to a cowboy show which was hilarious, and we saw the globe of death. Four motorcyclist ride around in a cage and do crazy tricks. I think that I am at the stage of my motorbike experience to do the same kind of tricks that they were doing. I am that good.

Jakarta Fun


This is a picture from Batik Day that we had at school. It is me, Debbie, and Brittany (my roommate).



While I was on holiday I went into Jakarta with my friend Debbie. We went all over Jakarta and shopped until we dropped (a lot of cash money). I got my hair cut, we went to the grocery store, we saw a really really big cow that was going to be killed for the holiday.


I was trying to feed him to make him a little fatter for the offering.

We also bought some clothes. Debbie and I decided that we are shopping soul mates. I tried on a shirt but one of the buttons was missing. I asked if I could get it for cheaper because one of the buttons was missing. Instead the man sewed the button right back on for me.

Goat Slaughtering Holiday

It is that time of year again where we get to celebrate Idul Adha, well I do not celebrate but I get some time off of school. Muslims slaughter goats and cows and give the meat to the poor. I decided to stay home and save some money for when I go to Africa this Christmas. Some things that I plan on doing while I am on holiday dodging the dead goats:
-get a haircut
-go shopping in Jakarta
-sleep in
-read a book
-watch a movie in theaters
-go to the fabric store

It should be a relaxing enjoyable holiday which is just what the doctor has ordered.
