Weekend Snapshots.

It’s been a super busy, but fun, weekend!

After class on Saturday I spent a few hours at school trying to get ahead of myself for the busy weeks before Christmas, before dinner in the evening. We went to a place called Marche to celebrate my friends’ birthdays.

It was so lovely to have such a big group of friends together – there were a lot of people there that I hadn’t seen since I returned to Jakarta, so lots of opportunities to catch up 🙂

Very sad to be saying goodbye to our newest Bulgarian friend too – safe flight George! 🙂

No Saturday night complete without a shameless selfie!

We had a few drinks after dinner (hello mojito!) and I dragged myself away from the party before it got to the nightclub!

I was concerned about getting some sleep as I needed to be up early to go to church and support my friend Glory who was singing in their Christmas service choir.

(apologies for the poor photo – the mood lighting was super dark!)

It’s an international church, and the service was like none I’ve ever experienced before! There were Christmas carols accompanied by electric guitars, and a metaphor about God’s light that involved us all shining lasers around the room!

Two fun facts about my morning: they had the best Christmas tree I’ve seen in Jakarta, and an African man asked me on a date to Burger King! Haha

And just like that it’s Monday again! I’ve got some new classes starting this week, and I’m co-hosting our school’s Christmas party on Tuesday. Throw in some holiday planning and you’ve got yourself a busy few days!

Have a great week 🙂
