Haven't posted in ages, again. I'm quite sporadic when it comes to blogging.

So, I'm finally here in LA, starting a new life. I've waited for this moment since I was a kid, to leave the drudgery that was Indonesia and be part of the great civilization that is the United States of America. My opinion of the USA hasn't changed much, but leaving has been unbelievably painful.

Things I'll miss:

1. Maids. I'll miss waking up in the morning, throwing off my clothes, taking a shower and coming home with a made bed and clothes already in the wash.

2. Nasi goreng and sate. Gah. No more unhealthy, carcinogen-packed street food. What's life without it?

3. Going to some of the nicest clubs and being able to drink whatever I want. I'm only going to the shittiest clubs here due to my age and I'll be lucky if they serve me some leftover moonshine, much less a Black Label coke.

4. Drivers. Having been driving for the last few weeks, I now know that there are times where you wish you didn't have to wade through traffic. Drivers are the answer to this quandary.

5. Having parents to mooch off of just a phone call away.

6. Last, and possibly most painful, Rika Ninomiya. My Japanese/Red Bull model girlfriend.

I'm sure there are many more things that I'll miss, but I'm too jet lag to think of them.
