Eruption and Earthquake

i just realised this morning that my parents are in Yogyakarta
which is SOOOO close to Gunung Merapi which erupted yesterday
i mean.. i heard about it yesterday but it totally didnt hit to me
until just now..
 
so.. this morning kelam kabuts call and sms them
which they didnt answer
i figured my dad continued golfing, so tak jawab
but my mom... urghh!!
 
my geography is bad...  and up till just now
i dont where Jakarta REALLY is
i thot Yogyakarta was near Acheh
dont ask me why
 
anyways.. my mom replied my sms with a long sms
she said they are really close to Gunung Merapi but THEY ARE FINE
my dad was suppose to golf at Merapi but of course that got cancelled
so now, they are off to Begawan Solo and shopping
seronok nyer kan...
 
so now i know that Indonesia (minusing Kalimantan) is made up of 2 big island and a bunch a smaller ones
the earthquake was near the Sumatera island (Sumatera Barat)
my parents are at the Jakarta/Bandung island (ade name lain ke.. i dunno)
and Bali is like hujung-hujung Jakarta/Bandung island
 
the above is from my own observation after srutinising the map from Google Map
 
dont you notice how these earthquakes or natural disasters always happens towards the end of the year
at least the ones that happens around our region..
scary eh?
 
i remember the 2004.. my cousin was suppose to go to Phuket but didnt
my cousin who was there in Phuket usually gyms at the basement of her apartment (something like that lah) but didnt
my aunties and an uncle was to walk along the beach but didnt
but they did have to run up the hills to save themselves.. thank god they are ok
 
then the Padang one.. which i dont really remember
but i think i felt the tremor at the office
last year i think... that was a scary moment
 
and now this..
 
so in conclusion, do not go to Indonesia hujung tahun..
shitlah.. just after typing that, i remembered that my frens and i are planning to go to Bandung for some serious shopping
in DECEMBER!
but there's no gunung berapi or earthquake there kan?:-|
