A Short Journal in Malang, Indonesia.

A post specially made for those couldn't make it to Malang. Also, to John, whom I promised a video as his present.

While in Jakarta I attended Bayang's wedding, one of my college buddy. It took place on Malang, East Java. I took a plane at 7 in the morning and arrived before anyone else, until an hour later everyone else completed the party. Then our amazing short holiday together started.

Four Best Douche Bags

If you ask me, who the fucks are those people? these are my college sweethearts, along with 5 others. Three of which later shows on some pictures I took. These people are the very soul of my college life since the very beginning, more than 7 years ago. We did shits in our college time of which I'm always proud of, even though none of em are actually such an achievement.

In Malang, we went to places which I found myself to be very fond of. First one was museum of transportation in Batu. The place was fully loaded with old cars and bikes, it was so big it got me excited the whole time I was there to take pictures and videos. 

The Party

Basically all we did in this museum was walking, taking pictures, seeing some shit we don't really know about or perhaps care. But for me, it was fun. Because after a while I get to feel this adventurous sensation again with these guys, we get to spend our holidays together out of Jakarta. Even better, one of us was getting married the following morning.

Aldo the Police vs John the Gangsta

Afterwards we went to BNS (Batu Night Safari maybe), BNS was also very fun. We raced in a go-kart track and the piece of shit in the pink shirt won the race while I came on second place, the rest I couldn't remember which positions belong to which. No documentation for this one unfortunately. But I'll show you another picture.

Chilling on Vespas

In BNS we accidentally met with Afid's and Dani's friends, that time was quite boring because I didn't know what to do except staring into nothingness. Then, one of the most hilarious parts was entering the ghost house. Imagine five guys of which four was big guys, was holding each others' shoulders forming some kind of train, just like little kids yet they are twenty-five. Why? Because they are terrified of fake ghosts. How ridiculous. I didn't do it with them tho mind you.

After the ghost house, I get to ride a robot bull. Where I had to stay on top of the bull while it's shaking, going mad and trying to throw me off it. It's real fun, although in the end I couldn't stay on top of it, and my friends were laughing at me.

Koko & Father Etc.

The next morning, we went to Bayang's wedding. It was delightful to see a close friend getting married. We were happy to see him do the long awaited marriage, we waited, he probably doesn't really want it in the first place.

Before the Marriage

I always thought that Bayang would get marry before me, not that it matters. Bayang's wedding was nice. The bride was stunning, Bayang himself was charming, and the weather that morning was excellent. Koko, our buddy came to Malang with his father to attend the wedding. I was glad we can see him again, we were all. To see him in such a good shape is awesome. My respect goes to his father that strives tirelessly, to make his son a part of the society that he once lived with. Tremendous effort in such an old age, I salute you.   

Final Moments

This picture cues the end of our short journey, which was actually a really long one since 2008. Now we aren't like we were once 7 years ago, we live our separate lives. But it's good, because these short journeys become priceless. Re-live this journey from a short video I made, enjoy.
