Tambang batubara..











Did I tell you we went to a coal mine in Indo? It was Yaya and Reza's work actually..they were hired by the company to take photos of the mine..and I kinda just tagged along because I wanted to see the place where they held the National Games this year (a.k.a : where Kim and Chief went to compete and won the gold medal!! yay so proud. I couldnt go and watch because I was still in London that time).
Anyway so there we went to East Kalimantan (or Borneo, its the island where Brunei is). And somehow silly me thought that coal mine was underground which was absolutely wrong. Its just like a humongous open pit... and the first thought that crossed my mind when I saw the mine was "Is there any soil micororganisms or insects that can survive here?"
Oh well I guess even though I finished my BSc Biology, you can never really take the biologist out of the girl lol. One thing I enjoyed the most (beside playing with their camera lol..now I really want to learn proper photography, need to save money to buy camera first. Nikon 450D anyone?) was actually the ride in the 4-wheel drive car which was really off-road. Seriously, those kind of car (or semi-truck?) was damn convenient, you can just drive literally anywhere..even parts where there were no proper road. And i can just imagine if we drive that kind of car in Jakarta, all the annoying motorcyclist will be just run away from our path, ha! how good it will be.
Oh me and meiting went to London Fashion Week today! it was damn good bargain (ps : if your budget range are like..in 100-300quid ish) but they did really slash the price. Not bad at all.
