I come from a tropical country, a country lies exactly on the hemisphere. Where there are only two season in the whole year. The season was only wet season and dry season, during both season the temperature and humidity was almost the same. Always very humid and the temperature different was maximum only ten degrees between wet season and dry season; between 24 oC to max 34 oC. and day light was constant, sunrise begin at 5.30am and down at around 6.00pm. no less and no more. To come to sub tropic country where there is four season in a year is very fascinating for me. I was very exited to be able to experience all these.
I came to Stockholm in September, this was really the end of Summer. The weather was still quite "warm" 17oC, and live in the southern area of Stockholm. I think the first thing I should do was taking picture , the view form my room to the surrounding area.

Student life again....
This is not going to be an easy life... after almost 10 years working as an architect, and I think I had a good career; I was force to stop working as the company I used to work with terminates me, due to the current economic situation in Indonesia. Here I am going back to student life... many people said this is not easy, as I will have to adjust my way of thinking from telling people what to do, now is being told of what should I do. In addition, the other thing was my class mates mostly was more than 10 years my junior... and most probably my teacher will be younger from me as well.
Yes maybe it is difficult at first, but not because the age thing I guess, mostly it's because my thing, that is as a shy and very self conscious. With this, I think I adjust better on listening to my teacher, accepting new ideas as well as being open minded to a new environment, instead of my ego being hurt; more over, I can listen to people instead of being heard.
