Getting into Family Business

631 days ago
	Well, all is ok down here, although quite busy. I have been chilling quite a bit with Kiky's family and have got most of the items on my agenda done thanks in part to Rustam, Kiky's older brother. Finally the anchor of this whole plan got caught on the seafloor once Kiky's father realized that his daughter was going to come and live in Jakarta with me. He was a bit shocked and a family meeting was called. Anyways, I jsut got the hearsay of this, but it sounds like I must go to him before leaving and ask for permission to bring Kiky along. He has asked me before in a rather serious and nerve wracking conversation whether I was serious about his daughter or just fooling around. Fortunately I didn't have to lie and told him my true feelings much to his satisfaction. So I gather that this meeting I am to attend in the near future will be something along those lines, but Kiky did tell me that they were discussing marriage... that is something that I really will have to think deeply about prior to making any commitments. But I do feel that in my heart it will end up that way anyways, it is simply that I like to make these plans on my own time and not that of somebody else. In other news I am falling apart physically... I haven't really had the time or energy to do anything physical for the last two weeks and have become a bit sick. My cankersores have returned, proving to me that they are most definately stress related. I just can't wait to go on holiday!
