Last week, the International Tennis Federation (ITF) held a tournament for junior player under 18 years old in town. About 15 countries joining that competition and give their best struggle to collect poin which might rise them into better rank internationally. And here I am, watching those potential youth show their best endowment.
Before this, I never realize that Indonesian youth are having high competence in this sport. Stunning move on how the Indonesian beat its opponents, from 14 foreign countries, only one player from Thai who able to step ahead until semifinal. Sadly, at the semifinal he must accept losing the chance run to the final, after Indonesian player defeated him.
Watching this tournament, I got the vision of fresh and juicy youth which might able to fame Indonesia within the next years. There is no doubt, that maintaining this fresh and juicy youth might take more effort. Not only government should play their best role, but also us who live closer to them should give better support to raise their spirit and motivation greater. No bother to question how bad the government systems maintaining its own children, reality that those player grow on their own. And government will acclaimed them, after those fresh and juicy kids already create a remarkable achievement behalf of their country.
I saw growing hope upon these faces, Mia Sacca, Elbert Sie, Jonathan Amdanu, Chris Rungkat, Lavinia and Golda. They will be our next hope to uphold Indonesia’s honor in tennis.

Hi Dewi!
haha...I wrote about dragon fruit and then I come here and you posted about fruit and juicy...although it's a different subject. Now I am curious, how do they taste? Are they sweet? I think that when they ship them to Italy, they are a little green, and so it's not so great tasting as when you can pick them ripe from the plant. They are truly beautiful to look at...the colors are fantastic. Today I bought some tamarillo and granadilla...but I don't know from where they are shipped. Please tell me more about the dragon fruit and if there are other interesting facts to know. THanks! ----rowena#http://rubbahslippahsinitaly.blogspot.com

Dewi,
I am hearing so much about the tragic news in your area. I hope all is well with you and your family.
Best wishes....rowena
Dewi...I am glad to hear that you are okay, and I can understand the great loss of everyone there. It is the most painful thing to see on the tv news how much people are suffering but I know that it is even more painful to experience it.
This event has caused me some bad memories and distress because it immediately reminded me of the hurricanes in Hawaii. And as much as I'm aware that people are tryng to help by sending food, water, money and other things, a disaster like this is simply too big to be handled efficiently in one day or even a few days.
I can only pray for you and all those that have to deal with this right now. Please take care.
