you'd think that because of the title, this post will be recapping an outing that happened in july 2026. wrong. this was july 2025. i put this off for far too long that at this point i don't even know if i should write about this now that it's been well over a year. well! enjoy the pictures anyway!  this outing was pretty impromptu i must say. it'd been years since i visited museum macan. in fact, i think i wrote about that time too so it should be somewhere on this blog. i don't think much has changed since then, apart from the seasonal exhibitions which admittedly i came for this time around.
   the exhibition was called "the sea is barely wrinkled" by a japanese artist based in bandung. i found out then that jakarta was called sunda kelapa, then batavia. i had never been remotely good at history or geography so uhhh that's probably why. twas embarrassing, really. but anywho, the installation itself was pretty! i especially liked how they covered the ceiling with blue fabric? tissue paper? to make it seem like we're underwater.
      other than the japanese exhibition there was also yayoi kusama's (rip) infinity mirrored room which was also there last time i went so that was nothing new. still went and took pictures again though. apart from that, the rest of the museum was pretty much the same as far as i remember. i've always loved going to the museum, there's something about appreciating artworks that makes you really think about how different people must lead life for them to be able to create something so unordinarily amazing, things that you don't even think of creating. after this outing i headed straight to a badminton session with a couple of workmates which was fun! then again, badminton in general is pretty fun for me. didn't go for very long as i was late like an hour nonetheless we got to spend time a bit more after that. all in all a pretty wholesome day with friends. over a year ago. i do apologise. a lot has since happened (obviously) and i have a feeling i'd have more time to reorganise my photos and pen down the shit that has happened more recently so maaaybe i'll get to do those before the year ends. as for work, i feel like i'm heading into a storm which i can see from where i'm standing now so i guess i'll be fucked when it hits. but until then. hope life is being kind to whoever is reading this.  
Labels: friends, out, personal after like a decade of deserting this blog, here's a continuation of my last entry. includes trip to bali up to the first couple of years of my life in the big city. enjoooy!                              life...has not been fun to live these days. i don't exactly know what it is but maybe i'm just at that age where things just change ever so slightly but rapidly? i've been forced to confront a plethora of things i've been running away from which i think is all included in the Growing Up package while continuously adding more things to my stack of regrets. can't we all just live freely? can't we all go on our own paces, do things when we're ready without being forced to? can't we spend more time for ourselves with people we actually like spending time with? why is it that as we get older it gets increasingly so much harder to do the simplest things for ourselves? i don't know. i guess i'm just angry at the world. and time. and society? to all the kids who wants to become adults quickly, you better cut it out. hopefully the next time i'm on here i'm a lot better! we'll see. toodles!
Labels: photographies an update to whatever i shot on film even going all the way back to 2021. all shot with the same camera (olympus 70g) with various rolls, enjoy! needless to say, this post is picture-heavy.                    personal life has been interesting, to say the least. it feels like a lot happened in such a short amount of time. for one, last month was eid and we all know how hectic those days can be. after eid was our office's halal bihalal which i and a few other people were tasked to organise, that went swimmingly! sort of. as hectic and time-consuming as the preparation was, it was a great experience. it'd been a while since i was put in a team to organise some sort of event so it was...refreshing. the few weeks afterwards could have been better--the world economy has been fucked more recently and therefore everything is too, including my workplace. living has not been fun these days lol. that's okay though. life has its ups and downs i guess. hope the next time you see me here, life is better!
