The Black Side of a Baby

So, I have to write my blog right. Ok, what's happening these past weeks. Early morning at am today I sent Wenny to the airport, she was leaving for good. Time past by very fast in moment like this. I still remembered picking her up when she came two years ago. This morning we spent some great time together at the airport’s coffee shop and just had fun browsing her Facebook. Now I think again how funny that last hours were. Most of our times together were also spent in coffee shops in town. She would always study or do homeworks and I would just chill out reading my books. I have seen her grown up and really admire this little sister who is also occasionally psychotic. Unlike her older sister, who is ALWAYS psychotic. Hahaha, what a family. Well, a couple hours later, we hugged and said good bye. I was cool and said “see you back in Indonesia”, but actually I was pretty sad. I am sure I will miss her a lot.

My roommate was also gone. He finally got a job offer and relocated to other city. I was actually happy for him. We have been sharing apartments for several months now, and have learned many things about and from him. One of those things is his smelly towel. :) Hahaha, just kidding. I like him, he is a good guy. We hang out together all the time. But one thing I really learned from him was his true heart toward God. Every night, he would sing and worship God with his guitar. He didn't have a good voice, but it's the inner passion and desperate pleas to God that really moved me. So every night when he started singing, I would cringe but would later be reminded inside my heart, whether I have prayed that day as well. Thanks 'ndre. I hope he didn't forget to send this month's rent.

Finally the highlight of my week is Tiffany. Tiffany is the latest addition to this city and our family here. She is the newly born daughter of our friends Niko and Fiona. I got a chance to visit the one-day old Tiffany yesterday. It was a blessing to see the greatest miracle of life. So tiny, so peaceful. Everything was great up until they started changing the baby’s diaper. I saw for the first time the baby’s black poop. Yuck. But Niko was really good in changing the diaper. Egh.... God, do I have to experience that too one day? I hope I can find a wife whose main hobby in life is to change diapers. J
