Open House @ Indonesian Embassy

It's Eid Mubarak or Lebaran we call it in Indonesian. The Embassy held an open house to celebrate it.

Three high officials of our Indonesian Students Association  (PERPIKA): Puteri, Rio ~our president~, and Cresti.

Menu utama...apalagi jika bukan sate dan opor dan berbagai masakan tradisional Indonesia lainnya.

Tapi....since I'm a vegetarian. ..this was the only thing I could savor.but...boy...it's deliriously delicious^^

...some desserts...

We had also some ceremonial ...since a high rank official from Jakarta also happened to be in Seoul. Hint: the banner.

Two Indonesians received award for being outstanding citizen in Korea in terms of achievements in their fields.

Rio...our PERPIKA president...one of them.

The dress code of the night was BATIK.

Clad in our lovely batiks, me, Diko (ICC president), ms Kwon Rosy, ms Riema Lee, and our new friend....were taking in the moment.

It's about 10 pm ....when we're going back home.
