Lombok Shower Party
The number of foreigners in Lombok is getting bigger each year. This number has created cultural mix. Lombok is getting more westernized so does with the foreigners that's getting more easternized. Being part of this mix culture has made me feel more globalized and more aware that I'm a world citizen. It was a year a go, after teaching all female teachers at Nusa Alam were heading to Sophie’s house. We parked our rides at the back yard. When we arrived, some people were busy tidy up all of Sasak cakes—Kelepon, Putri Nyelem, Banget, Wajik and etc—on some wooden table in the garden, small sound system stood and was ready to play. On the terrace, two women were mixing some flowers and yellow grains. Some teachers take quickly initiative to help. When everything was ready Sophie picked Sarah up at Senggigi. Sarah was fitting her wedding dress accompanied by Michelle and Sonia. About a half hour later, we could hear sounds of antique car parked in front yard garage.
