Yesterday, I watched a video from History Channel on Youtube. It unfolds evidences, the theory supporters explanation, and the skeptics contradiction of the palaeocontact theory.
Palaeocontact is a theory, that human has been in contact with aliens since ancient time. The alien came to earth to assist human to advance their technology. Ancient human recognized the aliens as gods.
The theory itself is debatable and the, so called proofs, are generated from archeological excavations. The skeptics label the supporters of the theory as delusional.
I personally believe that extra terrestrial DOES exist. It could be true that the ancient gods were, in fact, aliens. I am open to this possibility. In the middle ages, when Copernicus said that earth is not flat and the sun is the center of our solar system, all scholars said he was delusional and absurd. Look at it now. We believe that the earth is round and it revolves around the sun.
The video can be watched at this channel.

Palaeocontact
My Relationship with My Parents
I lived with my mom almost half of my lifetime because my dad was away to work from city to city. He came home only on holidays, or when he was assigned in my hometown. He spoiled my with money whenever he was at home. I respect him, when I knew, that he had to sacrifice his time at home to support me and mom.
I am closer to my mom even until this time, but our relationship is not always smooth. At some points in my life, she was over control, and I hated her. In the end of the day, I realized, she did what a mother must do. My father often plays as a mediator to make up the relationship between me and my mother better. When I lost my temper, my mom always takes it patiently.
I am the only child in my family. Eventhough my parents aren't rich, they will do to help me to achieve my goals. Sometimes, I feel like an unuseful child, because I haven't been able to give back anything significant for them.
Mom, dad...
I will work harder and make you proud!
Learning Kanji and Kana
I can write Hiragana's 五十音, 拗音, 五十音濁点, 拗音濁点 by hand. On the contrary I almost can't do it with Katakana. Katakana is more difficult than Hiragana, that's why! I have to put more effort for Katakana!
I have started to learn kanji. I can write from 一 to 十. I learn it by myself by using an online site. I study romaji only at a language school.
I'm taking a break from the school. I want to surprise my teacher with my kana and kanji ability when I start the class again!
New Rule for Myself
I've been thinking about travelling to Thailand by train next year. I have set a rough budget, but one thing is bothering me. Travel is a vacation for the mind, but what will I do beyond that?
After traveling I often end up broke and have to put my plan to work in Singapore on hold because I couldn't afford even the cheapest ticket if I got an interview. It sucks!
To solve this problem, I've made a new rule. Here it is: Each time, when I set a travel budget estimation, I will times it by 3 so it becomes triple. One third is for traveling, another third is for saving, and the last one third is for going to interviews.
Now I have a goal as to what I must save my money for.
Going Rafting
On July 3rd, 2010, I went to rafting on Citarik river in Sukabumi, West Java. The night before I had set an alarm clock to wake me up at 4. 30 am because I had to arrive at the meeting point at 6 am.
I have bad habit of turning off my alarm whenever it buzzes in the morning. That morning the alarm was loud and I turned it off. I woke up 2 hours later in shock because it was 6.30 am. I called the coordinators to ask whether they had gone or not. Fortunately they were willing to wait for me. I didn’t take shower and went straight to the meeting point.
We went to Citarik at 7 am and arrived at 12 am. The journey wouldn't have taken that long if we hadn't gotten trapped in a traffic jam. In the main lobby we changed clothes, took our belongings to the deposit room, and went to the river.
The rafting track was 9 Kms long and we took approximately 2 hours to sail along the river. My right arm went numb because I rowed too hard. I was dissatisfied because it wasn’t long enough. I wanted more!
