On Monday I went for a drive on my motorcycle and very quickly was pulled over by the Police. Usually when they wave me down I don't stop because they are usually just looking for a bribe. This time however I was unable to speed off and was forced to stop. I was scolded for not having any rearview mirrors on my bike (reason being because I am too tall for the bike so all I can see in the mirrors are my own arms). I tried to give him some money to make it all okay but he refused, confiscated my license, and gave me a ticket. Good news is that there are honest good policemen in Jakarta doing their job right, bad news is that I got a ticket.
I still don't know what to do about the apartment situation. I want to move back to the apartment complex I was living at before but I also want to save up enough money to go on holiday and have some money for the summer as well so its a trade off. I definitely prefer to live in that area closer to my friends and restaurants.
