Cannel e

I am not a fan of TV but when I travel, I watch TV to know a bit of local culture. Well, during my last trip to South Africa, I found interesting channel. It was channel e. I was on jet lag so I switched on the TV around midnight and flipped the lines. Then what I saw on cannel e made me even awake. A movie with a lot of love scenes was on the air. It fished in few minutes then another movie was on the air. It was about fantasy of a woman and again with a lot of explicit love scenes. Wow, I should have known it before because it was my last night in South Africa.
Then I fall sleep without switching off the TV and when I woke up in the morning, the channel was showing a program called “ higher life” with a lot of gospel songs. All I could here was Alleluia Alleluia Alleluia. It was very strange for me. Last night, it was the cannel with a lot of sexy things and porn advertisements and in the morning it was in very different mood. I was laughing myself. I thought it was like some people who have split personalities. Then after a while, something in myself told me ‘hey why it was so strange? You are also like that..I have to agree.. Yes, I am also just like channel e. I did not know that. Oh no. I knew that..

South Africa Again


Africa is so far from my home. I went to South Africa last year and I need to travel again for a workshop from 9 to 11 April. The workshop finished on Friday but my flight to go back home is only on Sunday. I don't know how they arranged anyway, I got the whole Saturday to visit around.
I have seen most of the city. The hotel " Birchwood" where I am staying now is in the middle of no where. It is so expensive to go other places so I just visited the shopping malls around my hotel.
It is actually quite boring. I like to explore the city but it is not safe. So I just went around the big hotel compound and took the picture of that strange tree. God has created all sorts of things for us.

A day to be remember

It was not really a strange thing. But I am not going to forget the day. 6 April, 2008. Today, I did some crazy thing for the first time.
The day on which I started sitting, I could not rember. The day when I start standing, I could remember. I day when I start schooling, remember but could not tell exactly when. The day on which I start doing what every boy would do, could remember but cannot tell exactly. The day I gave the first kiss on my girl first friend's cheeck, could remember and exact date in my old diary. There are many days. Anyway, those were the days.
