Dukung Indonesia untuk "The New 7 Wonders"
Ayo dukung Indonesia!
Pemilihan 7 keajaiban milik dunia kembali digelar, berbeda dengan kriteria sebelumnya dengan keajaiban yang dibuat secara sengaja oleh manusia dalam bentuk bangunan, kali ini panitia mengajak dunia untuk memilih 7 keajaiban baru milik dunia yang bukan dari buatan manusia. Sudah terpilih sebanyak 77 tempat di seluruh dunia dari berbagai kategori, dan Indonesia mengajukan atau setidaknya sudah terpilih sebanyak 3 tempat eksotik, antara lain:
1. Komodo National Park
2. Krakatau, Volcanic Island
3. Lake Toba
Voting dilakukan melalui internet, dengan batas waktu sampai akhir 2008!
VOTE for INDONESIA:http://www.new7wonders.com/ atau:http://www.new7wonders.com/nature/en/liveranking/
Catatan:Indonesia mungkin akan kalah dari negara lain, bahkan negara kecil yang mengajukan tempat yang tidak terlalu menarik, hanya karena negara tersebut lebih melek internet (Singapore contohnya, yang mengajukan Bukit Timah Nature Reserve). Dan yg lebih menyedihkan lagi, pulau Sipadan juga termasuk dlm nominee yg diajukan oleh Malaysia :(.
Brazil misalnya, pemerintahnya menyediakan fasilitas gratis untuk masyarakatnya yang tidak punya akses internet agar bisa ikut memilih untuk negaranya.Karena itu, ayo bantu sebarkan informasi dan ajakan ini!...Mudah2an partisipasi teman2 bisa membantu menempatkan ke 3 tempat eksotik yang ada di Indonesia ke dalam 7 keajaiban dunia… =)__._,_.___

Until the last cent....
After walked around, we decided to buy the external harddisk to store Bagio's photo collection. We chose 500Gb with the price of S$129.99. When we want to pay, the guy told me that is we pay using NETS, have to add 2%, if credit card add 3%. Woah..... its surprised us, as usually when we pay using NETS are always free... why this time no?
I don't want to pay with nets and I asked Bagio how much he has with him. I also search high and low from my wallet and bag... we managed to find $129.00. And before we pay, I saw the brochure again, and showed that the actual price is $129.99........ O oh.. then we dig and dig again to find the next 0.99! Finally .. we can get the $130.00 with some coins of $0.20, 0.10 and 0.05 to pay for the external harddisk... When we went home, our combined money in the wallet/bag/pocket was only $0.01 .. the return from 130.00.
Moral of the story: Cash is still the best!
Sapa suruh gak mau bawa uang cash.. keenakan bayar pake Nets/Cards, jadinya ya gini ini!

Today is the Rice Dumpling festival according to Chinese Calendar. Everybody will eat Dumpling ...
Early in the morning, my friend Chiew Har called to borrow the camera to take photo of "Standing Egg". Standing Egg??? YES.. is standing egg, the egg that can stand on itself on the flat surface. The egg will stand at about 12 Noon... and she wants to show it to the children.
At about 12pm... the children go out from the house and everyone received 1 egg and try to make it stand.. In the beginning was not that easy.. but slowly everyone can make it STAND!! This is not magic.. but according to scientific is because on that day that hour, the distance between earth and moon was the shortest/closest, so the gravity is very strong... I dont know.. but I saw it that the eggs were standing yesterday. Will the egg stand again today or tomorrow? Let's try it and let me know if you can make it stand. The egg is raw, intact and did not apply anything on it.
DownTown East Chalet & BBQ Party
Stayed 1 night at Costa Sand Resort at Down Town East, Pasir Ris with Duncan&Faith family. Also with May Leong's family and friends.
The weather on Saturday was good in the morning, but then raining after 11Am.. so we can not really take a good pictures on it.
Evening went to Joshua/Zoe's house at Queens for BBQ...
Enjoy the pictures!
