Preparation for going back home to the village for a week

By David Khoirul

I prepare myself to go home to Blimbing, a village in Lamongan, East Java, where I was born. Tonight Sury and I bought shoes, two t-shirts and a baby clothing for Jhony's 7-year-old daugter. I will be go home by train at 4 p.m. on December 30. It's very hard to leave Sury. My leaving, however, is only for a week or 10 days at most. I have to attend the wedding of Ahmad Habibi, my best friend and a member of Trio Kroboks.

Habibi is a great artist. He draws comics and cartoon characters like professionals do. His friends, including Catur and I, encourage him to submit his work to publisher, but he doesn't want it. Knowing he's married on January 3 is a big surprise because he never tells anybody about having a girlfriend.

While writing ten blog posts per day feels easier and easier, I have to devide this duty into two: one in the morning and the other in the evening, each consisting of five articles. At night, usually after I have dinner and after Sury goes home at 9 p.m., I post my five articles, like the one you're reading now.
