I remember... by Mocca

I remember...The way you glanced at me, yes I remember

I remember...When we caught a shooting star, yes I remember

I remember.. All the things that we shared, and the promise we made, just you and I

I remember.. All the laughter we shared, all the wishes we made, upon the roof at dawn

Do you remember..?When we were dancing in the rain in that december

And I remember..When my father thought you were a I remember.. All the things that we shared, and the promise we made, just you and I

I remember.. All the laughter we shared, all the wishes we made, upon the roof at dawn

I remember.. The way you read your books, yes I remember

The way you tied your shoes, yes I remember

The cake you loved the most, yes I remember

The way you drank you coffee, I remember

The way you glanced at me, yes I remember

When we caught a shooting star, yes I remember

When we were dancing in the rain in that december

And the way you smile at me, yes I remember

Batik Rulez!!

Batik (pronunciation: [ba.te], but often, in English, is [bætek] or [batiːk]) is an Indonesian word that refers to a generic wax-resist dyeing technique used on textile. The word originates from Javanese word "amba", meaning ”to write” and the Javanese word for dot or point, "titik."
Batik has been both an art and a craft for centuries. In Java, Indonesia, batik is part of an ancient tradition, and some of the finest batik cloth in the world is still made there.
Contemporary batik, while owing much to the past, is markedly different from the more traditional and formal styles. For example, the artist may use etching, discharge dyeing, stencils, different tools for waxing and dyeing, wax recipes with different resist values and work with silk, cotton, wool, leather, paper or even wood and ceramics.
Batik is historically the most expressive and subtle of the resist methods. The ever widening range of techniques available offers the artist the opportunity to explore a unique process in a flexible and exciting way..

The Beauty of Bromo

Everybody include my self, are amazed by its view. Mount Bromo also Gunung Bromo, located in the Tengger Caldera, is one of the most popular tourist attractions in East Java, Indonesia. It is an active volcano and part of the Tengger massif, and even though at 2329 meters it is not the highest peak of the massif, it is the most well known.

According to a local folk tale, at the end of the 15th century princess Roro Anteng from the Majapahit Empire started a separate principality together with her husband Joko Seger. They named it Tengger by the last syllables of their names. The principality did prosper, but the ruling couple failed to conceive children. In their despair they climbed Mount Bromo to pray to the gods, who granted them help, but requested the last child to be sacrificed to the gods. They had 24 children, and when the 25th and last child Kesuma was born Roro Anteng refused to do the sacrifice as promised. The gods then threatened with fire and brimstone, until she finally did the sacrifice. After the child was thrown into the crater, the voice of the child ordered the local people to perform an annual ceremony on the volcano, which is not held today, but Tengger people still hold Kesada ceremony to remind its story...
