Just for yoo, Noo

This post is dedicated to someone special. You Noo who you are ;)

 After seeing a photo of a delicious looking iced cookie-coffee drink, I wanted something delicious to drink too (*stomps feet*) so I got myself one of these... although it looks like a mini Guinness, it is in fact a peppermint-coffee-liquor-creation.

  More drinks... On the left is my drink of choice at Glashaus. Someone wittily named it LSD...Laura's Special Drink - coffee and coconut milk with a little honey for kicks mmmmm. In the middle is an orange juice, made special by the fact that I asked for no ice and got a hot drink :) It was so good that I don't think I can make do with cold orange juice any more. And finally, mangoes mangoes mangoes, just for Noo.

    I LOVE it!
    There are few things better than a really, really good beverage when you're in need. Peppermint-coffee-liquor? I'm incredibly curious. Sounds wonderful. Peppermint to look after the digestive system, caffeine to give you a little perk, and alcohol.. well. Because it's nice.

    The hot Orange juice sounds suspiciously like a lemsip to me, so I'll pass. But I'm in love with your mangoes. If you get my meaning.

28

I had a birthday. My 28 th to be precise. At school I selfishly threw myself a birthday party with my grade 4 class, although I’m sure they didn’t mind eating cake or playing musical statues (to Gangnam Style) for half an hour. In the evening I celebrated with family: my mother-in-law prepared traditional Javanese food and my brother and sister-in law brought a special kind of cake that is baked layer by layer. I received parcels from faraway places, including wonderfully comfy PJs from my brother-in-law and his girlfriend in Bandung, and a lovely top from H&M’s Mama collection from my brother and his girlfriend (we’ve never met, but I’m pretty sure she played a role in choosing it). Me and my little kicker. I wouldn't normally post photos of me in my PJs, but seeing as there's a baby bump to show off, I figured I'd make an exception. So, my first birthday as an expectant mum was delicious and comfy!

Since I last wrote, I had the pleasure of hosting a friend from Germany for a week. It was lovely to reminisce with someone who knew me in Bonn and to show her my life in Batam. Now I have someone far away who understands what I mean when I say "the coconuts are trying to migrate again"... Before she came, I was worried that she would be bored because I had to work every day and there's not much to do in Batam. As it turned out, we had nowhere near enough time to get everything done we wanted to, or to be bored! The highlight of her stay (for me anyway!) was our mini getaway to Bintan, an island just a 60min ferry trip east of Batam. We looked around some old buildings, took photos of very big statues, and then headed to a quiet beach resort for 24hrs of downtime.... (my apologies for the disastrous layout) Permission to skip the tedious staff meeting? Check! Lugagge? Check! Happy Travelers ready to get the bleep out of Batam? Check! Upon arrival in the capi...
