Running Errands At Jakarta (Plus Foodventuring)

Was running errands at Jakarta 2 weeks ago for 4d3n, well yeah and a lil bit of getaway. Doing a little survey of this and that and then looking for a reference books for my final project. And of course, meeting a lot of people whom I loved! Nothing beats the feeling of meeting someone you've not seen for years! It's like a volcano of joy just exploded from inside my body and then there's a tad of rainbow vomit, okay that one is gross lol. Below are some of places I went to that's been documented on my camera (on day 3 I was to weak to hold a camera lol but seriously.)

1. Colette & Lola

It's my first stop just after I landed on Jakarta, waiting to be picked up by Devi

bubble gum beads column, so friggin cute!

Cakes and dreams! It's like I'm in Katy Pery's California Girls music video lol

2. Three Buns

Couldn't not love this place at first sight! Great design indeed.

See, this place have a very good natural lighting, which then creates an immaculate ambience.

The squads that day. And no that's not my big brother, we're somekind of panda siblings by the way lol.

Our hungry faces lol.

3. Pasar Santa

Of course my visit won't be complete before I visit this the most talk-about place in Jakarta.

The famous black hot dog with the most queue in Pasar Santa. It tastes great btw.

This greasy-looking fried banana is as delicious as it looks. Me want right now :(

This sexy milk bath cake is too die for! My favorite among others! That's banana milk btw <3

This is from taco-cat. It tastes good, nothing tastes like crap here in Pasar Santa, seriously.

4. Devi's Apartment

Loving this minimalist space, small but it feels spacious. And loving the monochrome look.

Spotted the gift we gave for Devi's farewell!

The view from Devi's room. Foggy and dream-like in the morning.

I was having such a great time at Jakarta, met some friends I haven't see in a while, and it does feel so good to catching up with your long lost friend. I wish I could stay longer and having more time talking with them. Thank you everybody for sparing your time to catch up with me! Looking forward to see you guys again :)

There's Reason Why I Do What I Do Right Now

Catharsis |kəˈθärsis| (n)

1 the process of releasing, and thereby providing relief from, strong or repressed emotions

2 rare Medicine purgation.

Or I'd like to say it's something you do that keeps you sane. To be sane in this insane world is a real challenge we face nowadays. Many willing to pay just to keep themselves sane. Be it a psychotherapist visit or an expensive vacation far far away from the insanity of big city. See? Being sane in this world is not cheap, and certainly not easy.

If you're sad or if you're angry or if you're not capable of enduring your variation of emotions or if there's a chemical imbalance going on in your head and you're about to breakdown, catharsis will work for you. It will help you to fight the insanity that the world had thrown at you.

So yes, to finally be able to figure out something you do that can keep you sane is gold. A kind of gold that is so priceless no one can own it but you. Catharsis is good. Well it's actually great. It keeps you sane. It makes you feel better. And it can help you to go on with life without any grudge or any negative emotions. It's magic.
