Yesterday I scanned my old pics, the time when I was studying in Beijing, China. The photo above reminds me of a good time I had w/ my dear friends. I stayed at the cheap dormitory (1 nite = US$3), stayed 2 persons per bed room. My first roommate was Korean girl, but since I didn't click w/ her and also the room didn't have a good location and feng shui, I decided to move to the other side of the building (still same floor and same building, but different side - got sunlight every morning and afternoon), and my roommate was a 35+ Japanese woman. She is more mature and understandable. From her, I'd known many of her Japanese friend, and even her Chinese tutor has become my best friend 'til now.
The one on the left side is Korean girl (too bad, I forgot her name.. it's been 10 years already..). I took her as my 'Oni' (elder sister in Korean). She was treating me very well as I was too young when I went there (I was only 18 yrs old at that time, just finished my high school). We often cooked together (I cooked Indonesian food and she cooked Korean food).
The one in the middle is my Indonesian friend (Yuni). She is from Surabaya and if I not wrong, she is 6 years older than me (she doesn't look as her age, ya??? look very young...).
Three of us had the common interest, which was eating cake.. hahahaha....
Just the opposite of the Nan Men'r, there was a cake shop selling b'day cake. The sponge cake was veryyyyy soft and the cream was veryyyyy fresh and it didn't make people feel 'ni' in Chinese or 'enek' in Indonesian, forgot how to say it in English ;P And last time the Chinese yuan currency was still very cheap (1CNY=Rp.300), and the cake costs CNY100=Rp. 30,000.00, which I thought was still very cheap.. So, the pic was taken when we were celebrating X'mas day, the day before X'mas itself. We kept the cake only for three of us!!! Can you imagine??? How fat we were.. hahahahhaa.... We had the party w/ other friends and only ate the cake once the party had over... that's why when I looked at the pic yesterday, I thought of putting the pic and write something in this blog... =D
I tried to keep in touch w/ two of them long time ago, but I really couldn't find them. Maybe the time was just too long and what I have now is only memory...
There are lots of pics taken when I was studying there and so much memories that I could think of.. feel great of having the opportunity of being there.. Just wonder and wish if one day we all can meet together again, just like my primary school reunion that will be held next Saturday. Hm.. just wonder....
