Ciao folks,
I hope you all are enjoying the end to the week, and of course looking forward to a stupendous weekend ahead!
Well, as some of you may already know, my time in Tokyo Japan has come to an end, and i shall be leaving for good this wondrous city tomorrow morning.
I am feeling sad, yet somehow happy, as i return to home to where family is.
I cannot thank all the folks who have been my great great friends during my 7 years here, and all who have assisted me in some way or another in obtaining my dreams, enough to say THANK YOU THANK YOU so much!
As i leave this place, i know that as much as challenges may come my way, that i have a new beginning to look forward to, that one door closed is another open.
From tomorrow onwards i shall be communicating from South East Asia, it may be from Singapore, may be from Indonesia. Now with Indonesia, i seek your understanding as the simple gadget known as the internet may face certain rather difficult problems while me being there, therefore i may not be able to receive your messages, or even if i do it may be very well delayed before i can even practically reply to them. So please understand, i ignore no one, as you all probably know very well, but here in Tokyo where i have lightning fast internet, compared to Indonesia, it's not that i do not want, but because i cannot.
But what i can, i will do. Take my word on this. I have a new life to face, new mountains to conquer, new oceans to cross, and new depths to dive into.
All these may take my life and strength, but at the end of the day when all has been said and done, i return to this place known as the PuristS to calm my mind. Because only in the relm of the ticking mechanisms that i am who i really am.
Thank you everyone for helping me find a home here. There is simply too many of you to name, but you know who you each are, i THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart.
So here is Stephen " BluNotte Platinum Boy" Tjandra signing off from Tokyo,
And seeing all of you on the flip side, from Asia,
Ciao,
Stephen
I pray that your move will be smooth and peaceful; that it bring you new friends, that where ever you are, you are not far from a Purist and that you also have good Internet connection.
Sincerely,
Helen
I'm definitely going to need that especially with regards to the internet connection!
At least now in Singapore it's not too bad, but i just am dreadful about what will happen next week when i finally return to my home in Indonesia.
Sigh, i hope all will be well too!
Cheers
Stephen

Stephen
For all the times online and especially the early days with my platinum posts, something which i do not think i can accomplish anymore to such an in-depth degree from where i'll be at.
But rest assured that i shall be here where possible, and that all of you are definitely always in my prayers.
Cheers!
Stephen
And i'm glad that you progressed up the ladder so quick!
I only wish for that too!
Enjoy your time in Tokyo, and i shall do the same too at home!
Cheers
Stephen
From sunny hot and humid Singapore!

Stephen
Already not that far from where you're at!
Do hope to meet up one day!
Cheers
Stephen
