Power of the Sun

Meet Moki; a talented young artist expert on screen printing. He recently had his exhibition in my place and I wrote the introduction text for him. Writing for Moki's exhibition is probably one of the right decisions I made this year. Not only that he is really nice and his works are adorable; we made a lot of new  friends from this exhibition.  Naturally, he becomes one of my most favorite artist and a good hang out buddy. In this exhibition he made screen printed poster with his original illustration of 12 chosen musician/ band. He plays it out by letting people decide how much will they pay for this limited edition art work.. sure it sold out really fast and some points were proven. 

Wonder what point am I talking about? Click here to read the writing.

Love,

The Engagement Party

(the engagement ring)

*****

Last Sunday, Oct 28th, I was engaged to my beloved photographer: Dito Yuwono. Where I come from, an engagement (and even popping the question) is followed with a ritual and big family introduction, party, and witnessing. Seldom will we find the man actually kneeling down with a diamond ring in real life here, and that's how things go.

Anyway.. about me and Dito, we have been going out forever; we actually grow up together, and the time we spent was irreplaceable. Our love story can be read here. Sure enough, it would only be acceptable if we finally tie the knot.  Everyone are very happy and so do I, I guess. Yes, I do still feel funny about all these changes regarding my freedom and I was too busy preparing the party I don't know how I really feel about it. But, the day was perfect. I've always had all these thoughts and vision about my engagement party even more than my vision about my wedding. To see it came true is a bliss!

Now let the pictures do the talk!
