Back to School class - group 1 - Jakarta

The "Back to School" class, group 1,

finally took place on Jan 22th last week

at Gourmet World Kemang Jakarta.

This is the first time for me to split

the same subject for class into two cities,

due to the demand.

This new place where the class being held,

was such a cozy room with long table

enough for all of us,

and incredibly delicious food.

I think I can be here all night long

to scrap if they let me to.

All the pictures here were taken by

Riana Ambarsari, who teaches many

photography classes at NCC,

scrapbookers herself,

and whom I adore for her unique angles

when taking photos, and many many more.

As I always say,

it's not the lens,

but the eyes behind it that counts.

Thank you again, dear,

for giving your whole day for me.

She shot some details of the album

at the cozy room.

I'll post the album & details

which I took in natural light

after the second class

is done tomorrow.

See you soon enough!

Weekend scrapbook classes with Iris Babao Uy

I adore Iris Babao Uy's scrapbooking style

long way back since she won the title

Memory Makers Master, first scrapper from Asia.

So imagine my excitement

when on the way back home from long and tiring

decorating work at Jakarta to Bandung,

I found the news on my iphone

that she will teach

two classes at Made with Love Singapore

in just about two weeks!

Of course I picked up the phone

and registered on that night!

No matter how crazy the work's schedule are,

I jumped right in to her classes

without second thought.

And I was having much fun

playing with more medium for the pages here.

Iris style is certainly not for

the heart-fainted scrappers.

She also love to get messy fun like me

with all the mixed media excitement.

And the messy fun continued in

making the 7 gypsies artist tray

at the second class.

Will add the family picture later here.

Oh, so much fun!

Time flies in 9 hours.

Especially when meeting and chatting with

many good old friends,

Elvira and Sandra, the Made With love owners,

the place and person who must took

whole responsibility for my first love

in scrapbooking.

Aaaand meeting new friends as well,

like this 'big hearted' girl, Sharon,

who hearted and ordered my owls all and all,

and gave me this sweet handmade gift.

Handmade gift by Made With Love's DT member?

woooohooohoooo....

lots of people envy me....

*evil laugh*

but, the most thrilling news is,

Elvira and Sandra asked me something

that really swollen my heart with joy.

And I said, YES!

Of course I said YES.

Will be back with that news

soon enough.

*wink

I really need some sleep now.

Warung 'Mari Sini' ('Mari Sini' food stall)

Where did the time fly?

It's been two crazy weeks after new year

and here I am tonight,

just have a spare time (and energy) again

to make some new post.

One of the reason for the craziness

is this 'warung' or food stall

called Mari Sini(or in English, Please come!)

owned by my best friend, Muljadi & Marisa,

who also owned Sagoo restaurant.

The deadline for them to open was supposed

to be before new year.

But many delays from the mall,

we just be able to finish this 'warung'

on Jan 11, two days after me and my team

back from Semarang for 3 days.

Talking about full-packed schedule, eh?

*sigh*

In Indonesia, many small food stall like this

which called 'warung' is very common,

but not in the mall.

They usually made restaurants and food court

in the mall for better capacity,

but this small food stall offering

many variety of snacks and yummy fried small dish

with reasonable price to chew on.

Enjoy the ambience!

Enjoy some jokes signs!

Enjoy the oldies snacks

that bring back many sweet childhood memories!

We certainly enjoyed ourself

after the work all done beautifully.

With all those yummy tester food

that flowing endlessly from the kitchen,

oh, my.

Don't forget to try for yourself,

the 'Tahu Gondrong Cocol' and

'Es serut mangga', or you will be so so sorry.

This is a serious warning.

Me with Marisa, the 'warung' owner.

Spend a whole day with my best old friend,

working, chatting, eating, giggling,

eating again,

is always the best kind of day.

From there,

we go straight to Kelapa Gading,

to refresh some decoration for

Eat&Eat Kelapa Gading

before the Chinese New Year come.

Crazy days.
