My second work week has concluded! (well, sort of--today is a holiday, Assumption, and tomorrow is not, but I will make up the time next week).
It has been a whirlwind since Brian, the boss, got back from his trip to Sri Lanka. As I had been warned, he is full of ideas, and as soon as I dive into one, he comes up with something new and with a closer due date! I love that my workload is filling up, although I am wondering when I will squeeze in the time to meet the Indonesian lawyers from different NGOs Ari sent me contact information for.
I also finished the terrible journal competition! I don't know how it turned out, but fingers crossed I will get onto one, and if not, I'll start looking for a term-timer internship for next year.
So I am off to Cambodia, computer-less, for the weekend with Kari; we also plan on exploring some of Kuala Lumpur and the Batu caves on Sunday. I don't plan on sleeping much for the next four nights, but that is a small sacrifice to make to visit two new countries over one weekend.
I leave you, readers, with a view of my lunch, mi goreng ayam (indonesian chicken and noodles). I've been trying to pull new dishes off the internet and from my Eat Smart in Indonesia book, but he cuisine here is very regionalized, and while Jakarta is a mixing pot of sorts, some dishes are only readily available in certain areas.
Until Monday!
