Urban Jazz Crossover 2012: Very Indonesia

Performers of Urban Jazz Cross Over 2012 Jakarta

As you entered the hall of Fairground (SCBD, Jakarta), you know that you are going to experience jazz in a new different way. You saw a lot of people waiting in line; the door to the concert hall wasn’t opened yet despite it was almost 7 p.m. You looked at the ticket you bought for IDR 100,000. It was written: concert starts at 7:30 p.m. Never mind, you said, it was Friday(13/7) night anyway.

Double Shots

As usual, I was sitting on a table in a coffee-chain store at a mall in Jakarta. My laptop was in front of me, a cup of half-drunk coffee stared at me, cables were around – adding a complete mess to the table.

I felt the urge to smoke a cigarette after sitting, working on my assignments for hours. I went outside to the smoking area.

Five minutes after my coming back to the table, a woman approached me. She was no more than 30 years old. She introduced herself, asking for my time. I said yes.

The Sign Is Out There

All the people in the world are equal. God created humans with the same rights, regardless of their skin color or ethnicity. Therefore, it is unbearable if someone underestimates others because they have different skin color. You have to be kind to everyone you know. You have to treat people equally.
