so many people have been discouraging me to do the day trip to borobodur. even the travel agencies are against me. the other day, i talked to this person in the agency who can arrange a day tour for me. when i returned this afternoon, the lady wasn't there, and the other girls there told me that there is no such tour. i went to another travel agency but the tour coordinator already left. when i called him about the matter, he asked me to call back after 3o minutes as he was driving. when i called back, it was already in voice call mode and i didn't know how to leave a message because the instructions were in bahasa. i just wish that L's friend will pull through tomorrow and can find an agency who can arrange that tour for me. i guess i have to remind her of that, though, tomorrow.

the tv in my room has been changed early tonight because i was wondering why i didn't have cnn nor axn. this morning, i asked the front desk how many channels there are and they said that it's the same as what i have. early this evening, i called the bell captain and he sent someone up to see to my cable. when korfun arrived, he saw that the tv wasn't right so he decided to change the tv. within an hour, i have a new tv with the full cable suit! yes! :)

today is ash wednesday. at lunch, we went with the guy in the office, F, to the service which was held in the other building. i can't believe, and it was just an eye-opener for me, that there are so many catholics here and it seems that they are more religious in their practice. although the mass was in bahasa, i just followed along. i was given the ash sign in my forehead. i observed that they don't hold hands while saying the Father's Prayer, and they shake hands during the Peace Be With You. :)
