ytd was de fers tym i step int0 ind0nesia n by ferry, wavemaster 6. haha. initially i was quite w0rried i wud get seasick as de ferry ish small. n st0pped juz beside de cruise! sh0 de c0ntrast ish rly big. when i was 0ut at de sea, i expected t0 c all water n ships but, i saw islands. grr. maybe i shud g0 0ut t0 de 0cean? maybe. haha. n de ting ish dat when i alighted, de p0rt 0f batam, harb0ur bay, was m0ving c0z 0f de wave n all 0f us did n0t expect it. we t0t dat its bc0z we l0st 0ur balance. we clung t0 each 0ther n were sh0 ps. 00ps.

we went 0n a car t0 de sh0pping mall. i n0ticed dat m0st 0f de cars were t0y0ta! 0.0 but t0 my surprise, i saw mt dream car! skyline! w0a! 0ki. self c0ntr0l. i realised dat de r0ad at batam l00ked scary. dere r n0 curbs n when deres a traffic light, i didn even realise its existence. de cars were changing lanes whenever dey feel lyk by juz stretching 0ut their arms. n when we st0pped at de traffic lights, dere were ppl c0ming t0 0ur car, kn0ckin 0n de wind0w, askin f0r m0ney. we did n0t give dem any as de uncle said dat s0metyms if u give t0 0ne, de rest wud 0s0 c0me askin f0r it.  

since im in IAD, lemme t0k b0ut buildings t00. haha. kind 0f b0ring here huh? hm. when i reached harb0ur bay, de p0rt was 0ki. de cleanliness was maintained. but deres water p0lluti0n. fr0m de p0rt, we cud actually c quatter settlements a dist away. n u shud n0e h0w dey discharge their waste. sh0 when we were 0n b0ard de ferry, we might be sitting 0n s0metin which we d0 n0t wan t0 n0e. al0ng 0ur way t0 de sh0pping mall, we saw many m0re quatter settlements. their living c0nditi0ns are n0t rly g00d. dey were cramped n n0 hygiene was 0bserved. even when dere r buildings, de paint was falling 0ff. n i saw dat de c0lumns 0f de buildings are tearing apart due t0 de sinking 0f de land. many 0f de sh0ph0uses are empty as m0st ppl cud n0t aff0rd t0 buy 0ne 0r even rent 0ne. when i was at de sh0pping mall, de architecture was slightly better. th0 de sh0pping malls r big, dere r n0t many cust0mers.unlyk sg, de st0res r near t0 each 0ther spaces were fully utilised, dey haf many empty spaces n dere r stores which r empty.

0n 0ur way t0 a seaf00d 'retaurant' we went int0 de settlement. de h0uses r filled wid mud. dere were taxis n m0t0rcycles everywhr. we had t0 drive carefully thru as de drivers d0 n0 signal even when st0pping. al0ng de r0ad, we saw children playin baref00ted 0n de mud. even th0 it was rainning, dey did n0t mind. i remembered de uncle menti0ned dat de exmas r nearing. h0wever, de children d0es n0t seem t0 care b0ut it. when i saw dis, i realised dat i was actually very f0rtunate.

0n 0ur way back h0me, we t00k de ferry again. we t00k de ferry at 5.45pm at batam, which ish 6.45pm in sg. de wave was bigger. it was rather scary as de ferry felt lyk it wud sink if de wave gets bigger n luckily, it did n0t dats wy im stil p0stin dis. n ye, my c0us asked me dis qn. wy dere r n0 sharks 0r d0lphins jumping 0ut 0f de water? n i asked her dis qn. wy dere r n0 penguins jumping 0ut 0f de water?
