Merapi, and all of Jogja things. - Part 1: The Journey

Sunday Nov 14th, when the sun started to leave the day..

A bus was parked inside my school building. there was just Hilwa alone, then Tamara came and so did the others. you may think "what were you guys doing in school at a lazy sunday like that?"
well, we're not that dilligent, hehe but i wish we were we were going to go to Merapi, to help the victims of the erupting mountain, Merapi. with 24 others, which is 3 teachers and 21 friends, we went to Jogjakarta by bus at around 4pm. hours by hours, we spent the time by making jokes each other, eating snacks, gossip, blahblahblah until the night came. people fell asleep cause they were too tired, can you imagine? its already 7-8hours, if im not mistaken, we sat on the bus. i was thinking about my spine, i thought its broken already, hoh. freaking tired but it was awesome at all! we had trapped by traffic jam at daybreak. the driver said that there was a fallen truck 5 km away in front of our bus. we slept-woke up-made jokes-turned on some music players-sang together-prayed-til' we went sleep again, the bus still didn't move.
once i opened my eyes, i found the sun shined. the bus stopped, we had breakfast on Ajibarang district, Center Java, at 5am but it was like already 7am! hahaha. as the bus wet by, we passed Purworejo district. one of my friend screamed, "look! isn't it the volcanic dust?"
i got a bit afraid, what would Jogjakarta be like, if we could already saw the densed ash in Purworejo, which is kilometers away from Jogja?

around 9am, i didn't know how, but we got Jogja finally. i got amazed by what i see, Jogjakarta was so clean! it wasn't like a city that is spewed ash by the volcano mountain. it wasn't like what i had been thought, it wasn't like what i had been seen on tv... it was so clear and..... wonderful. then we went to PPSDMS NF's dorm, yeah we're gonna spend nights over there. there was a lot of brothers, cause' its boys dormitory actually, but then those who lived on the second floor had to move themself to the downstairs. then me and the others girl friends took a bit rest, then eat.........uhm idk what to called it, was it our late breakfast or earlier lunch? hehe. after that we were briefed by those brothers, they're also volunteers anyway.
around 2pm what?! say it loud! its 2pm! we off to Muntilan, Magelang district, Center Java. i remember, at that time, one of our brothers, Kak Andi said, "you want to see like what you've seen on tv, don't you? nah, we're going to see it now."
you know that was so true............ i felt like everything i see are so grey.... to be continued.
