2. upon first impression (picked me up at anggraini with his hiline, bandanna, and sunglasses with the windows down) haga gave him his nickname "Papa Acung" in high school

3. for some unknown reason, kids LOVE him to pieces.

4. sucked my ingus from my nose with his mouth when i was a toddler and nearly suffocated

5. went down on hand and knees to hunt for my barbies super thin yellow spoon, fork, and knife di karpet tebal berurai-urai.

6. disciplined to the max

7. he turned down a job offer in kuwait (fully accommodated, with breaks every 2 months (for 2 weeks each), and we can visit him every month (again, fully accommodated)) because his unfinished contract in jepara (fully committed).
then he recommended his other friend to kuwait and his friend got accepted.

8. super social to everybody and anybody on every level. no basabasi.

9. after dropping out of college, he
left home to new york, queens with his own money from selling vegetables (and a bit of help) and survived and met the most amazing friends he could have, including his italian friend who always invites him for dinner every weekend with loads of helpings
