Short Voyage Report

I left Brisbane on 20th of February, early in the morning. The entire plan is initially divided by three; catching up with old friends, father-daughter session, and PPIA stuff. Up to now, they ran very well.

1st part; catching up with old friends.
DONE! Had a lil chit-chat and some trip to the place-where-we-can-take-picture-with-opera-house-as-a-background, Sydney Central, and Manly beach. Plus girl session! We baked chocolate muffins and choux pastry! Haha.

2nd part; father-daughter session.
Almost done, huhu. Dad's catching flight tomorrow morning but we had an authentic trip together. First off, we met in Sydney Airport, then went to Canberra with some colleagues before going to Wollongong, where the conference took place.

Additional part; represents PPIA in casual discussion with students in Wollongong.
Yyeah, my dad was the speaker and President Miko eventually had me replace him under PPIA in that discussion so, yeah, I joined them. It took place in one of the University of Wollongong Ph., D. students, Mr Garda, who is also My Dad's colleagues and teaching assistant at University of Indonesia. Hohoho. We also had a huge dinner. Appetiser and cake, yumm. So delightful!

3rd part; PPIA stuff with President Miko and teammate Ridho.
Tomorrow I'm gonna meet PresMik and Ridho in Sydney. We're gonna talk about database we've developed for 2 months and meet in McQuarie University where PresMik office at. I'm probably gonna go there by bus with Ridho, after I reached Sydney by train alone.

Additional part; meeting with one of my senpais.
Owyeah, he was one of my seniors in Jakarta karate team and now he's doing his master in USyd. He's got 1 boy now, woww. It's been a looong time since we met in the last training. Hihi. Can't wait, Bang!

After those finish, back to reality, back to Brisbane. Pictures? Later XD

Assalamualaikum, it is nice to be able to see life and culture of other people when you are in their country. It could be lonely at time, thinking of those people at home, thogh you are not short of friends there. Perhaps by surfing this blog you could find peace in you: Take a look at yayasan-ilmu.blogspot.com. It's good for the soul away from home.
