Maybe it's not a 'custom' to give graduation present in Indonesia. Frankly, I'm still happy though there is no graduation party or something like that because for me, the most important is the achievement, not the party. Once more, thank you very much, Thelma!

Good job, Desianto! That is quite an achievement in this new-millennium world with all its distractions - and you DO deserve a party with tons of presents. If you had a choice, what kinds of presents would you be wishing for? I remember huge parties with lots of food and gifts for both my eighth grade and high school graduations. I guess my family was relieved (surprised?) I made it, at the time. Congratulations! /jan ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 25 Oct 2003 19:25:20 -0700 (PDT) From: "Desianto F. W."

In Indonesia it would be "Selamat" though selamat also has another meaning, safe. BTW, if you read my reply to Thelma, you'll find a funny mistake. It should be "Thank you Thelma!" not "You're welcome Thelma!" That's what happen if you're too sleepy to reply a message, because I could't sleep well enough for days before the "D"-day. At least, it is also the example of the one of my proven hypotheses in my thesis..:-) Again, thank you very much! Desianto F. W. ======================== > >From: "Desianto F.
