■My father was born in Semarang with a big family. He's the second child. He likes to help his friends, likes to draw chinese tigers outside the house ... on the street, with chalk... he was master of chess. He likes to protect his younger brothers and sisters.
■When his older brother went to japan, it was his turn to go abroad. But his dad wouldn't let him, so he went out to pray under the moon with his mum, too, so that he could go to Germany. At his time, GErmany nis a good place to study. His prayer was answered. He went to Germany and studied in Aachen University. He lived 7 years there, study and got his Diplom Ing. and already worked and met Beatrice, A German lady. He went back to indonesia to help running the family business, but Beatrice got diarrhea in Indonesia and she refused to live there, so she left my dad's life gradually. (That's so funny). anyway, then several years later, my dad met my mum at the party. Then they went out for 2 years. He likes my mum because my mum was a good and decent woman ("loyal" is the word he put it). They got married in 28th Nov '82 and got 6 children. My dad works as a realtor. He owns his own company called "Homes 21". He was stressed out alot because of his work, and long time ago, he fought alot with my mum, but I know he loves my mum. He became a Catholic in 1999. I think my dad has alot of wisdom. He gave me a set of Kerokeropi stationaries (like bunch of them, pens, pencils, pencil paces, books, crayons, bags, etc... When I was in grade 3. And although my family didn't come to see me at Grandprix Marching Band, he came unexpected! He likes to tell us (me, Bram, ryan) the SungoKung Stories when we were kids. My dad is a good man. He's very generous to his friends and his family. My dad tought me to think and to thirst for wisdom and knowledge. No one thinks as much as dad. Once he almost got killed by a friend who put a gun on his head. He betrayed my father and wanted to take all my dad's wealth. But my dad was lucky. My mum stood beside him barked at the evil man without fear. When he ordered my dad to sign a piece of paper stating that my dad would give all of his wealth to him, my dad used a fake signature. (smart huh).. and so, when he was released, he went to court and found justice.
My dad was a great philosopher because he has gone through alot. He's a good business man. He's very goo din Math. I always come to him for math-helps.. but I always ended up sleeping. ha ha... Well, my parents are happy couple now. I'm very happy.
