She made a story of her life story relation with the city, that she has a similar habit from child till now. Like 14 years with the similar way to school. The entire story she made like self-biography memory. Part of her story:

tiada tempat seindah rumah

Keluargaku tinggal di rumah ini sejak sebelum saya lahir. Saya terlahir dan dibesarkan di sebuah rumah ini di lingkungan dimana ada sebuah taman kecil dengan pohon cemara berbentuk skop seperti dalam kartu, rumah-rumah aman dibiarkan tanpa pagar, tidak banyak kendaraan lalu lalang sehingga kami bisa bermain sepeda sesuka hati di jalanan.
Setiap pagi berangkat ke sekolah berjalan menuju bis antar jemput sekolah yang menunggu di bawah pohon kayu putih. Udara yang dingin, tidak jarang berkabut, rumput basah karena embun, merupakan suasana yang menyebalkan kala itu.
Perjalanan ke dan dari sekolah sejak TK sampai SMA selama 14 tahun melintasi rute yang sama. Jalan-jalan utama dengan pohon-pohon besar di kiri kanannya, yang ketika musim hujan tiba dahannya berjatuhan di jalanan. Pada musim hujan tidak jarang kami terjebak di sekolah karena hujan sangat lebat disertai angin bahkan kadang2 membawa butiran es sebesar kelereng yang bunyinya mengerikan ketika menerpa atap aula sekolah, tempat kami bermain.
Teman-temanku banyak kami bermain setiap sore di halaman rumahku atau di lapangan badminton sebelah rumah sampai saat magrib ketika langit dipenuhi kelelawar yang akan memulai kehidupannya di malam hari.

I just started to research my present memory. After my graduated, recently I have liking to the city experience.

So the space it transform my city space through my memory. Now I just started to research this city project as my personal experiences.

My city experiences through my memory will be the project that I have to research. Try to extract to my present existence and recorded the entire place that I have been living on to dig back the old memory and transform it to the visual. Some recorded from my kindergarten to college place will tell about my education story, hang out place, shop, street, the people that I know, and other of me as the city boy.

Considering inhabit existent whose increase a flash, were cause me to assume the essential of the urban space content to the local resident. It full of people whose come from out the city to stay for long time and what I show it, they do not give a good effort through city development. What I worried is city water as my personal city project to my related place to living, that has refusal change to now. Some local and temporal resident who's live in the urban area that near to the river are still using the water in the direction of primary needed. Some of my research giving negative result from the city water (river), the water is still have bad microbiologists to human bodies. Sample microbiologists Analyses that I have been research:

- Cikapundung rivers:
there is a dominant bacterium with circle form, short stick, dominated with gram-negative bacteria short stick.
- Citepus River:
there is a dominant bacteria with middle stick, short stick, and circle form, dominated with gram negative bacteria short stick.
- Cikenal River:
there is a dominant bacteria with middle stick, short stick, and circle form, dominated with gram negative bacteria short stick.

Because I'm not come from this city, I want to compare some similar problem with my place (Jakarta). There some interesting phenomena from local inhabit as pereman. In Bandung this man is not hard as in Jakarta, they still interrelate with common people, engage in recreation, smiling, good manner, but they still act as pereman survive some area for their life.
