Together with my colleagues, we left our beloved campus on Friday morning around 7 by cars. I was in the same car with Bu Andri, Bu Raema, Michelle, Bu Pur and her son named Lawang :)
On our way to Bandungan, we stop accross "Roncali" to pick up Victor.
Arriving there, we directly went to the meeting room ready to start our meeting. It was unfortunate that we forgot to bring along with us the box containing all the files for the meeting. I called Pak Hendro hoping to ask him favor to get the box, but I couldn't reach him on his cell.
VU called the administration officer asking whether the box was still in front of the administation building of the university. It was there! Thanks GOD!
Luckly, our rector (who is Anne's father) was still on the way to Bandungan. Anne called his dad to do us a favor. Whew.... what a relief!
The chairperson (VU) took action. We modified our schedule - snack came first! Well...no one was complaining, of course!
The whole meeting was packed. We rarely had free time - well....only one hour to check in, unpack our bags, take shower then head back to another sessions! hehehe...
That night on the same day, we were chatting by the pool. In the middle of nowhere, Victor and Rio jumped into the pool. Almost everyone screamed!
Bu Andri, Joseph, and some other lecturers went to Ambawara buying "jagung bakar" (Well...We can also call the words in quotations in English, but the culture carried in Indonesian expressions is deeper.)
Around 10, I was about to go to my room. On the way, however, I knocked on AI and Nn's room. We chatted for quite some time then I decided to just stay in my room.
Well...well...well... That was just a plan that never happened. Jos was still awake and we were chatting then Pak Anton came in and we stayed awake discussing many issues in the living room (was it a living room? I am not sure but I guess so. hehehe)
About an around later, Bu Ina came in and joined our discussion ' till midnight.
I excused myself first to go to bed at midnight after brushing my teeth, washing my face, and my hands plus feet. Of course, I prayed before I went to bed. I was afraid at first that I would sneeze like crazy due to my allergic to dust.
The next morning around 6, I opened my eyes and Bu Ina welcomed me "good morning". I was shocked at first. I didn't expect that she was already awake. hehehe...
Not long after that, she was all ready in her sports shoes, red back, neat and sporty walking around the hotel and up to the village.
After all the meetings, we finished up the "RAKER" with our usual tradition of taking photos. Someone (the hotel guest) walked by and Bu Ina requested him to take our photos - which is really good - everyone can be in the pic.
Lunch at "Rina Rini" restaurant was waiting for us. It wasn't really delicious but OK. I got home around 3 and called Koko on his cell. He was in the office waiting for me....hehehe... but I was at home.
We finally went out for lunch (he had lunch and I watched) hahaha =)
As we got home from lunch, I went to bed! I was so tired and taking a rest helped me a lot to refresh my body. Daniel was watching television when I woke up around 7 p.m.
We went to have dinner in "Beringin" restaurant that night. We order "ca kangkung" and "sup kepiting jagung". Yummy! These ones are much better than my lunch....
