J Town Getaway

It's been almost a week since I got back from Jakarta.

I'm glad that I made it to watch Java Jazz 2012 in Jakarta after been wanting to watch it since 3 years ago. The waiting finally paid off. I was so much enjoying Dave Koz's performance, especially his special show gathering 5 homeless children band from Bandung, named Limatujuhkustik. It was simply awesome & amazing!

My 4 days & 3 nights stay in jakarta flew so fast, that made me wanted to endure the stay for more. Special thanks goes to a dear auntie & a dear friend for taking me to places I wanted to go, restaurants I wanted to taste, & even movies I wanted to watch. It was simply priceless.
Merci Beaucoup!

I recall a quote I read at JPCC's bookstore. Here is how it sounds:
"Ring the bell that still can be ring. Forget your perfect offering. There is a crack. A crack in everything. That's how the lights get in"
-Leonard Cohen quoting St.John of The Cruise
I found it proufound & meaningful.

And just now, a friend of mine mentioning about eating at Chung Gi Wa, a korean restaurant in Jakarta, that makes me want to fly back to Jakarta just to taste this restaurant that I didn't happen to taste at the last day of my trip.

Oh well...I guess there's always a second chance for everything. So, til I see you again, Jekardahhh!! :)
