Chicago trip during the last week of summer break, we went with the new students. Santi and her siz, Aswin , Ryan, Dedi, Evita, and the rest are old ones, Charles, Thomas, Leo, Adi, including me..It was fun though, we went to Navy Pier, outlet, but mostly we spent our time to eat at good restaurants since Bloomington has so limited choice of "good" food. I love this pic the best coz everybody's there and smiling, yeah.. sign of happiness, lack of stress and frustration.

Now, my days seem to be continuously exhausting, I feel like I have lots of things to do from A to Z, study, work, group meetings, projects, homework, fundraising..and I need more time to sleep and hang out with friends. Feel like going home back to indo..relaxing, and spend time with my family. Can't wait to see them till Dec..sometimes feel so lonely here..

"Beautiful Disaster"By Kelly Clarkson

He drowns in his dreams
An exquisite extreme,
I know he's as damned as he seems
And more heaven than a heart could hold
And if I tried to save him
My whole world could cave in
It just ain't right, it just ain't right

Oh and I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful? Or just a beautiful disaster?

He's magic and myth
As strong as what I believe
A tragedy with more damage that a soul should see
And do I try to change him?
So hard not to blame him
Hold on tight, hold on tight

I'm longing for love and the logical
But he's only happy hysterical
I'm waitin' for some kind of miracle
Waiting so long, So long

He's soft to the touch
But frayed at the end he breaks
He's never enough
And still he's more than I can take

He's beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
