!the introduction!read it first!
Hello y’all looking at this page.. Thank you for visiting us! Thank you for sparing your precious time to look at our blog.. (Am I being hyperbolic?)
The 1st post of a blog is always an introduction, rite? So, I’m gonna introduce myself, and the blog, in the end.
My name is Sylvia. Soon-to-be 17. Still studying in high school, currently in the last grade. And I’m in Science program although I’m so not into science. I love reading, from comics to dictionaries. (yea, I mean it) I like to stay tune to the current affairs, and not so into those celebrity-gossip-and-so-on thingy. Oh well, I think that’s enough about me. If you wish to know me (and Harman a.k.a Shiroa) more, please just visit our friendster (navigations on the right side) or our joint biodata.. =)
Okay, now about the blog. This blog was made to give you information about Jakarta and Denpasar, the towns in which we live in. Since we’re still students, it’s from a student’s point of view. And again, because we’re still students; please forgive us for any bad photographs. We’re not photographers for sure. But we’ll always try our best to give you the best. (Hey, today there is GOOGLE, anyway..)
We’ll tell you about what happened in Jakarta and Denpasar. The hustle-bustle. The weather. The traffic jam. The people. And so on. We will also (hopefully, frequently) review some nice places for you to go. All, again *hee hee*, from a student’s point of view. Oh yeah, maybe we’ll post things about our schools here.
This blog is actually dedicated for international viewers, and that’s why we make this blog in English although we are purely Indonesian. (ah yes, ethnically we’re Chinese. But we were born and raised in Indonesia) Maybe the ones who are planning to go on holiday in Indonesia? But we also dedicate this blog to the people abroad who want to know the newest things about Jakarta and Denpasar. And actually, a person abroad is the one that inspired me to make a blog containing information and the latest news about Jakarta (and Denpasar, later on). Special thank’s for Aswin. =D
And for the people who don’t know what Jakarta and Denpasar are, or don’t know what Indonesia is, relax. I’m gonna explain it now.
What the f**k is Jakarta? What the f**k is Denpasar? In Indonesia? Where is Indonesia?
Hmm. Okay. I guess I better start by explaining Indonesia first. Just a brief explanation. Because I’m not an expert in Geography. Indonesia is a country in South East Asia. It has tropical climate, the sun is shining the whole year! Oh yeah, please, it’s Indonesia not Donisia or Indon or Indones or other stupid names that real people really mentioned to me. (I meant it, you know. There were people that mentioned those when I talked about my country) .And please, don’t confuse Indonesia with Bali. Bali is a part of Indonesia, not the way around. Stop boasting with the I-know-all tone that Indonesia is a part of Bali. Hell no! In English, you can pronounce ‘Indonesia’ een-duh-nee-sha or een-duh-nay-sha. But actually in Indonesian we pronounce it een-doe-nay-see-uh. Well, not exactly like that, but closely like that. Oh yeah, our language is Bahasa Indonesia, not just "bahasa", because actually bahasa is the Indonesian word for language! Anyway, Indonesia is a large country, consisting of thousands of islands (I meant it, thousands!). It has a large variety in race, culture, and language (dialects to be specific). I’m proud to say that Indonesia has the largest variety of culture in the world.
Jakarta, the city I live in, is the capital city of Indonesia. And just like another capital cities of any countries in the world, it’s a metropolitan city. You know, the one with many skyscrapers and malls. Jakarta is very big. And it’s got all, complete. Well, except for fresh air, maybe. Isn’t that a problem of any big cities? Pollution pollution pollution! But actually, it’s very cold inside high buildings in Jakarta. In fact, it could be freezing sometimes. Well, did I say about how big Jakarta is? So big that you should take your personal car everywhere because the public transportation can’t reach all parts of Jakarta. So big that there is a possibility that the Jakarta citizens themselves never went around Jakarta. (for example? Me!)
But after all, Jakarta is a nice place to live for you who likes the big city atmosphere. Come to Jakarta!
Stay tune for the latest news about Jakarta! (and Denpasar)
Sweet kiss,
Sylvia
