Cheese!The experience photo...make colorfull jokes.
I had been invited to my diving buddy’s wedding party. On the big day, I carefully preened myself losing my usually-tomboy-looks. I had on a beautiful lacy kebaya and sarong. I couldn’t wait to see what my other diving buddieswould be wearing. They had promised to dress up as best as they could for the party. On the big day, the bride and the groom looked awesome. The party was fun and the food looked great. I decided to sample a litle from each dish. While munching, i saw Budi, one of my diving buddies , among several persons heading for a photo session with the happy couple. I quickly put away my delicious plate of lagsana, headed for the podium, and struggled up the podium stairs in costume and high heels. When i finally made it, the photographer was about to shoot. On the double, i positioned myself in front of row, giving the peace sign with my fingers. When the photo session was over and i looked around, i was shocked to find myself among strangers. Except for budi, i had no clue who the other were. Laughters burts from my diving buddies below the podium. Smiling broadly, Budi guided me down the podium to my grinning pals. “can’t wait for your own buddies, huh? Don’t you know Budi is also one of the bride’s high school mates? it’s her high school mates you were posing with!” said one of my friends. Another friend added, “you know what...several minutse ago that guy over there asked me what your name was. He seemed bedazzled by the way you look tonight. Alas, your stage antics changed his mind”. There went my good chance to meet a guy.

Wondreful Trip make my life colorfully like bubbelgum.
It was the frist time visited my dear sister in semarang. I followed her advice to take a train to go there. “C’mon...take a train to semarang it would be a wonderful trip for you! I will pick you up at the station,” she said. So off I went to Semarang and the journeywas quite smooth. I waited and wainted at the Tawang train station, Semarang, but my sister was nowhere to be seen. After a long wait, i decided to take a nice sip of hot strong tea at a cafetaria there. I headed for the cafetaria, sat down, put my bag next to me, and placed my order. “Hmm... this is wath I call decent tea,” i said to myself. “I’m so sick and tired of weak tea. Not bad for a small cafetaria.” It was a small one indeed. Except for me and a gentleman sitting at the opposite table, the place seemed deserted. I spent a long hour thre until i decided not to wait for my sister anymore and started looking for her place myself. I was walking along the platform when I realized that I wasn’t carrying my bag. I panicked and right at that moment I saw the gentleman in the cafetaria walking a few meters in front of me. He was stapping a bag on his bag. “wait a minute, that’s my black bag!” I said in a weak voice.”hey, you ... stop there! That’s my bag!” i shouted. The man stared at me dumbfounded. “this is my bag,” he said. People were gathering around usas I said, “liar, you stole my bag at the cafetaria. You...” I didn’t finish my line because someone tapped my shoulder. It was one of the waitresses of the cafetaria. “miss, I think you left your bag at the cafetaria,”she said and handed me my old black bag. OOOPS! Just like what my sister said, this trip proved to be a “wonderful journey”.

Extravagate is the show make my life more inspiration.
I’d never missed the extravaganza parodyshow on TV. Then I missed out on it when my office in jakarta stationed me in ende. There was no TV in the house where I stayed. I really missed watching my favorite show. One day, a friend told me that a local wartel, a small shop where you can make a paid phone call, own a TV set. The next time Extravaganza was scheduled to be on air, I was in the wartel, busy making local phone calls to several acquaintances. After making the calls, I walked out of the phone booth and sat patiently in front of the TV set hung next to cashier.
Unfortunatly, the TV wasn’t tuned to the TV station that aired Extravaganza. The cashier was intently watching a gossip show. I decided to wait for a few minutes before asking her to change the program .five, ten...fifteen minutes passed. “do you want to make another phona call?” her question really caurht me off-guard and made me stutter.”Nnno, I want to watch Extravaganza,” I answered without thinking. “Oh, that’s why you’ve been sitting there for so long. But sorry, we can’t receive the TV station that airs the show here,” she said sympathetically. Embarrasment and disappointment hit me hard as I walked out of the wartel

The story make my life more hwaaa...ha...
Eggs
A lady goes to breakfast at a restaurant where the special was two eggs, sausage, mashed potato, and toast for Rp. 10,000. “sounds good”, she say “but I don’t want the eggs.” “Then I’ll have to charge you Rp. 13,500. Because you’re ordering a la carte,” the waitress informs her. “you mean I would have to pay for not taking the eggs?” the lady asks disbelievingly. “then I’ll take special.” “how do you want your eggs?” asks the waitress. “raw and in the shell,” the
lady replies. She takes the two eggs home. God Is Watching
The children are lined up to lunch in the cafetaria of an elementary schoolfor lunch. At the head of the table is a large pile of apple. Perviously,the principal made a note and posted it on the apple tray.”take only one. God is watching.” At the other end of the tableis a large pile of chocolate chip cookies. Arriving at the chips, one student whispers to another, “take all you want. God is watching the appels".
Fat-Free Fries
I stopped a fast food restaurant, interested by a sign which offered fat-free fries. I desided to give them a try, but I was disappointed when the clerk pulled a batch of fries from
the fryer dripping with fat, and then put a bag of these fries in with my order. “just a minute,” I said, “those aren’t fat-free.” “yes, they are,” he replied, “we only charge for the potatoes, the fat is free.’’
