For Lippo Villager, you are entitled 4 tickets for the launching and the race by showing your monthly maintenance invoice to the customer service.

Even though it’s not the A1GP but I believe it’ll be festively and the best part is, it’s free.

What a coincidence that Lippo Karawaci just changed it’s name to Lippo Village recently. The Lippo Village will be famous and the world know about it. 22 nations will battle out in the humble suburb of Jakarta. It must be part of the marketing to hold such a big international event.

The official map of the race track is as follow.

The colored area on the map are the grandstand. It’s offer better spot to watch but come with some more on the ticket price. The most expensive is the zone c then zone A and the last is zone B. The price is as follow Rp. 1,2 Mil, Rp 1 Mil and Rp 800K. For general admission is Rp 250K. The ticket is valid for 3 consecutive days (Fri-Sun) with a complimentary A1GP Lippo Village “race kit” merchandise.

If you live in Lippo Village, you’ll get special price, a little bit cheaper than the regular. It’s Rp 1.05 Mil for Zone C, Rp 850K for Zone A and Rp 675K for Zone B. The general admission is Rp 225K.

A good bargain but still it can’t justify me to watch something that I don’t quite interested.

After I get in the bus, there were only 3 passengers in it. There was and old lady sat in front of me. The moment I saw her, my first impression was she was a typical bad tempered old lady. No trace of smile or warmth on her face.

I won’t tell all the passengers in or out the bus, not all of them catch my attention back there.

There was a well dressed man stopped the bus in the middle of the street. Funny thing is, it’s just 10 meters from the real bus stop. He was busy making calls while get into the bus. That’s enough to label him an arrogant.

In next 10 meters on the actual bus stop, one family catch my attention. An Indonesian native carrying her 2 years old daughter with a maid and her husband, a Korean man. She sat on the opposite side of me. Then the maid follow. The maid sat just between she and old lady. There was only small opening between them but the maid just squeezing in between. The maid pushed the old lady with her body. It was many clear space on the other side of the lady. The maid just plain ignorant.

I thought the old lady will be irritated by the maid. But I’m wrong, she just move nicely without showing any emotion at all. The moment later her husband sat next to the old lady so he was separated from her wife and the maid by the old lady. He sat on the old lady’s her hand. The old lady pull her hand and still without any expression and the man say nothing. That’s not enough, after that the man reach to his daughter that was on her wife’s lap. The old lady was pushed back. And without any expression at all *again*.

As we can see, I judged the old lady that she is bad tempered. The fact is very contrary. She is not bad tempered and very patience too. Remember the well dressed man? Actually he was not arrogant at all, he even greet us while he took off the bus. That’s what I call “Don’t judge a book by its cover”.

Maybe I don’t have any sense of belonging towards my wordpress.com hosted blog. Not many customization and personalization can be done there.  It’s not a good incentive and more over for IT worker like me. I decided to take a glimpse of having my own blog hosted privately. But alas, I don’t have any credit card to buy hosting service on the net while local hosting doesn’t seem having good value for money either.

Few months ago i got my own first credit card. The option to buy hosting service was opened to me but at that moment I wasn’t in my mood to start my own hosted blog anymore. At the same time, I stopped blogging at wordpress.com too.

The passion buried inside. Like fire still burning inside husks. Few days ago the fire went wild after two of my friends “intimidating” me. A journey started to find a domain name and a good hosting. In the same day, all settled up. The very next day I migrate my old posts and translate them into English.

And here is the domain, the blog and thoughts of mine. Let the journey continue…..

The wasp was exhausted and still trying to find way out. With few sheet of papers, I approach the wasp. It was hiding under my socks at the corner near my front door. I thought it was UNDER the socks and I try to get the socks out of my way using my right feet. Suddenly my right toe felt a striking pain. Let me emphasize it again, STRIKING pain. I jumped and screamed frantically. My hand was waving the papers trying to hit and blow the wasp away. I thought the wasp still has it’s sting or it’s fang in my flesh. No, it wasn’t. I was surprised it’s so painful. Must be it’s venom or something.

I fell and sitting on the floor while holding my toe. After few seconds, my eyes spot blood surfacing on my toe’ skins. My wife was giving me a bottle of wasp oil (bahasa:minyak tawon) ASAP. Dont’ quite sure what this oil are made of. I tried to rub my toe with the oil. Well, it’s suddenly felt better, maybe the venom already wear off at that moment. Now I have a swollen toe and I have to raise my toe a bit while walking.

Why the wasp stung me? In our life, this question is comparable to why we hurt others. Sometime when we get cornered or feel insecure, we may hurt others. Some say it’s instinct and reflect, but it’s not. You can train your self to always be mindful and prevent unnecessary actions that can hurt others or hurt you, intentionally or unintentionally. Be mindful.

After the show get into second season, I can’t help it anymore … I’m contaminated again now. Can’t stop after I start it. Just like 24 serial, keep on and on to the thirds season. It’s been a while.

This is a fiction, science fiction serial. The movie that satisfied our ego and wishes to be “somebody” that has special power. Just like when we were just kids watching super hero movies, we relate our self as the main character. We were happy and want to be like the hero. When the hero won, we jumped and celebrate the winning. At difficult times, we get hold our breath and hope the hero will survice and hit back big times to turn the tide.

This serial is quite unique since the super hero are common in it. As the story goes, it’s not clear yet who is the main character in the movie. Bad guy look good on certain times and vice versa. It’s flowing and changing. At the middle of the first season, the “not-so-super” hero became more dominant and start to show his strong role in the story. It’s Peter Petrelli.

4 more episodes to go to the end of first season. See ya later.. can’t stop watching…
