Could you please line up?

I really hate it when I am waiting for my turn, and suddenly someone just cuts the line. I have had this experience three time in the bakery. The first time was a cute executive. I really wanted to yell at him "bitch!" Then I realized that there is no need to yell at him.

And the last time when I was at Oebel Bakery, a woman just came in and ordered. Fortunately, the woman next to me told her that I was next. What would you do if you were me?

Killing is the best way?!?!?!

When I read this news yesterday, it reminded me on Jakarta riots of May 1998. More than 40 people have been killed and 28,000 made homeless in South Africa. It was not much compare to Jakarta riots in 1998. Chinese descents in Indonesia could never work in other fields than being businessmen (anything related to business). Of course they are rich in the end. And after that, they are being blamed for the richness.

People are always being blamed for something they have earned. Life and destiny are in our hands, you can be anything you want if you want to reach for it.

Of course, what is happening in South Africa is different from what happened in Indonesia. But I am just wondering why people never learn from the history (it happened as well in Malaysia in 1969). So, for many people maybe killing is the best way. Do you agree with them?

New place, new plants

























Since orchid is second fave flower, so I bought one from a Vietnamese-German guy's shop, and he and his wife are our friends now :D

The orchid died one week later, and he gave us another one, but it looks different from this old one. I felt so bad, then I cooked tempeh for him.

The plants in the row are onions and shallots and onion. I plant them just for fun, they look nice too.
For *Hazelnut* and Melong, the painting was found on the street and I thought the colors were not bad, so I kept it in my kitchen :D
