howdy! van gogh alive finally came to jakarta! bf and i had reserved tickets since june, basically ever since they first started selling the tickets. we originally planned to go sometime around july but as we got closer to the date we realised it may still be crowded so we postponed the scheduled time to around august. sure enough when we went, there weren't a lot of people since we went on a weekday and it had been a more than a month since the exhibition opened so there weren't a lot of people who went simply because they had FOMO. without further ado, have some pics from that day!  .gif) van gogh will always be one of those artists that i will always have respect and admiration for. his life journey was so sad that if i think about it too much i might end up crying lol. he had such a beautiful relationship with his brother. i remember studying about him back in sydney, art in general has always been so fascinating to me. plus i saw how they did this exhibition in sydney so i've been wishing for it to come to indonesia too and it finally did and thankfully right when i still lived in jakarta. .gif)    .gif) .gif)   if i had to say though i wasn't really satisfied with how they did the exhibition. don't get me wrong, the story telling through his paintings were beautifully interpreted. it's probably that they had this set up inside a shopping centre that they didn't have much space to go all out (like they did in other countries) so had the projectors and screens filled up a whole wall or something it would've been more enjoyable, plus photos in general would look better. nevertheless i'm still glad i got to enjoy the exhibition and honour his works.  life has been pleasant lately! nothing much happened after the last time i updated this blog. work has been super repetitive which is why i've started looking for freelance positions but havent gotten any. everything has been so monotone that in fact i'm writing this post during work. they're very lucky to have me as an employee. also i've been spending a lot of time w bf lately that i'm worried what it's gonna be like for me when he goes home next month lol rip  sister is giving birth very very soon. i feel like batman right now just waiting for a batsignal from her before i can make my move and go home LOL. i hope she has a safe delivery. i'm gonna be an aunt soon! it's still somewhat unfathomable tbh bc i am terrible w kids especially babies. my cousin also gave birth a few weeks back and i paid her a visit and like. i kid you not. i just sat on the corner of the bed watching her baby from a distance. i couldn't dare go any nearer even though the baby was just sleeping. how tf am i gonna be an actual blood-related aunt to a niece when i can't even interact as a proper human with a goddamn baby??? good luck to all of us i guess. i'm sure sis will become a great mother though. come to think of it, is this the first post in a long while that i didn't include some sort of food pic? LOL じゃまたー
