Company Outing

Went to Puncak - the highlands 2hrs drive from Jakarta - with KiraKira Ginza, Jurin and H20 staff.

I was surprised and touched at how the staff sincerely enjoyed themselves, so much so that most of them were too excited to sleep!

Food was plenty, winning the hearts of everyone there - ending with Kambing Guling - Lamb BBQ.

It wasn't even a hotel accomodation, rather they slept at the attic with futons side by side, men, women, boys and girls all in 1 place. They even organized games on their own.

Such appreciative bunch of pure and beautiful people.

Jurin - Realization

While H20 is closed for the fasting period and renovation, I worked at Jurin with Toko-chan.
But when Toko-chan went to Japan to see V6 in concert for a week, I took over the role of Mama-san!

And through this experience, I found the ugly truth about myself.

That I cannot fluently speak and joke in Japanese. And not even in English like the natives. It's a dilemma that I can't belong to any groups.

Secondly, I found it painfully difficult to make conversations with the Japanese men who patronize this place.
And that's because I am not a good listener! And that my general knowledge is...er embarrassing. I am shallow.

So I started grabbing books in my hand again.
