Sunny Sunday

Jakarta has been raining constantly for months and I almost

forgot what is it like to have one full sunny day. And I had 

a wedding to attend all day with three of my boyfriends. It's

a traditional Javanese wedding with all the detailed ceremony

that lasts for hours! Hope your Sunday also as sunny as mine.

Oh I wear my black converse even on weddings:)

Jakarta hari ini penuh disirami sinar matahari setelah entah

berapa lama dan saya sampai lupa seperti apa rasanya.

Seharian menghadiri sebuah acara pernikahan adat Jawa

dimulai dari akad hingga resepsi lengkap dengan semua

detail upacara dan bersama sepatu converse hitam saya yang

setia tentunya. Senangnya sekali-sekali panas begini:)

me and sellers: plastic plushies

In Jakarta, I love that I still seeing a street toy vendor

like this one walking around my house area. It's usually

a man who builds a display made of wood and some rattan

sticks to put all those balloons plushies, paper toys and other

toy goodies that either they make it themselves or bought

from someone else in a few amount.

I certainly hope this kind of toy sellers still be around for

sometime because I just love their paper crafts and those

small balls in bold colors. They always reminds me of my

childhood years.

me and markets : night cake market

I'm so glad that I went to this market with my mother last week.

I had been here before but that was like years ago, so I'm

completely forget how amazing this whole market was actually.

Imagined you are surrounded by boxes and boxes of cakes

and pastries in a really long alley with people shopping and

dropping of another boxes and boxes of cakes in plastics or

already wrap in pretty paperie ready to be send as gifts or

wedding celebrations. This night market has been established

for almost a decade and there are two groups of sellers

every night. The one at starts at 8 PM - 2 AM and the second

group is from 3 AM-9 AM. I wish I could take more pictures

but I just couldn't stand to be moved around with that many

people there. Oh how I love Jakarta's markets! Yay!
