International Woman's Day

To be honest, I've never realized that today, March 8, is the Woman's Day. I even heard that in some part of the world like in China and Rumania, they were giving half day off or even one day off because of this. Why have I never heard about this? Well it seems that in some country like Indonesia or Malaysia, it's not really being celebrated.

One of my Russian friend congratulated me when we had breakfast together (because I'm a woman of course) and then he took off to the class in a hurry without any clear reason. Is it me that just missed what he said or he tried to hide something...I'll never knew.

Anyway....I then walked to the office with my other two Russian friends, the ones in the picture in my previous posts. All ladies...without expecting anything, we chatted and joked until we finally arrived in the classroom. You cannot imagine how surprised we were to find out that on each of our table there was a red rose, put nicely in between our computer. Then I realized why my friend hurried to go earlier than us to the class. So sweet....thanks a lot guys :)



If you remember my post about valentine's day...this is exactly what I meant by small gesture that actually gives a lot of meaning. At least it made us all smile in happiness before being grilled in the classroom, trying hard to understand the physics behind sonic measurement and applications.

For all the woman in the world, Happy Woman's Day...all the best for us, and may we all get what we've dreamed of.

I wonder what story behind this women day. Anyone knows?

Dian said...

We don't need any story behind the screen. Just once in a year paying respect to the women in the world...what's wrong with that?

I agree with u mbak. I also just heard about women day now.
Unfortunatelly, there's no one in here (Indonesia gitu lho) celebrate this day I think.
Selamat hari perempuan semua !!!
May you have nice life being a woman ....

When I look at your website in Firefox, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, awesome blog!

The other day, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iphone and
tested to see if it can survive a 40 foot drop, just
so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now broken and she has 83 views.

I know this is entirely off topic but I had to share it with someone!

and I'm looking at options for another platform. I would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

Hey just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
The text in your article seem to be running off the screen in Firefox.
I'm not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with browser compatibility but I thought I'd post
to let you know. The design and style look great though!
Hope you get the issue fixed soon. Cheers
