Java Trip

So exam week is coming up and I'm taking a little time off to go see a few more places in Indonesia.
I have been wanting to head over to Java since my sister said she was coming out. She wasn't willing to do any heavy traveling when she got here so we took it fairly easy.

Speaking of fairly easy, when I go over to Java soon I won't be doing anything too heavy. I will fly to Jakarta the night of the 22nd, spend the night there, exploring a little, then fly off to Yogyakarta the next afternoon.

When I touch down in Yogyakarta I will meet up with Tom and Charlie, right away renting out a motorbike and heading to Borobudur to spend the night close by and see amazing views like this the next morning...




After spending most of the day at this beautiful place we will eventually head back to Yogyakarta to poke around there for a bit. On Friday mid afternoon I will fly back to Jakarta to see a bit more of it. I have some friends there that can show me around and let me see the best bits. I plan on hanging around in Jakarta until Sunday. My flight heads back early Sunday I really need to change that so I can come back later... perhaps now...

Should I Stay Or Should I Go Now

It has come to the time where my school has asked me if I want to stay for another year. My second contract isn't finished until the end of September this year but they want to know soon because it could take them a bit of time to find someone new. I don't have very long to decide. I want to get a Job in Japan badly, China would be my second choice. So far it seems like it might be a bit easier to get a Job in China but I would much prefer Japan.

As much as I want to leave I know another year here would be a "piece of piss" as they say. I would have another pay increase and would have a real easy time of saving more money next year then I have this year. I could also have more time to better myself as a teacher. Work on getting some certificates and what not. That would give me a bit more confidence to go on to bigger jobs.

After typing this I feel like I am leaning more towards staying another year... I am just getting itchy feet. I could see a bit more of Indonesia if I did stay another year... aduh.

District 9

Listen to me. Trust me. Watch this film.
After watching the film I was really impressed by how unique it was and how it wasn't anything that I expected.
This version of the trailer couldn't be embedded so follow the link.
DO IT.
