Walking on History

Today, I've just discovered my other soulmate called: Museum. Around 11 in the morning, one of my lovely chums; Annisa picked me up with his brother. Then, we arrived at Museum Asia Afrika.

Actually, we have came there yesterday with the other friends to do our civic assignment from school. My civic teacher participated the new learning media exhibition. One of them is to make our civic workbook like a scrapbook. And my book was shown there! I felt 3/4 teaspoon ashamed and 1/4 teaspoon proud at the same time. Annisa and I wanted to come back there the day afterwards to take some pictures. We asked some friends to join us, but no one could, so it was just the two of us.

And today we went there again! It was a such sunny day outside but, it's cool inside the museum. Not just the temperature, But the things inside there also. MAA is one of the highest historical places in Indonesia. Because, the Asian-African Conference on 18th until 24th April 1955 was held there, and 29 countries participated. This conference stated aims were to promote Afro - Asian economic and cultural cooperation and to oppose colonialism and neocolonialism by either the United States or the Soviet Union in the cold war, or any other imperialistic nation. This conference was an important step toward crystallization of the non-aligned movement. If you are interested with this, take a look further: here.

There are so many good old stuff which are taken care well. I took a lot of pictures until I didn't realize that I have passed three hours in that 'not-so-big' museum. I felt quite amazed learning history this way... It's a lot more fun! But, my history teacher is fascinating as well. She's one of the best teachers in my school. And maybe also it's just the way history mostly got me fascinated (though I didn't always get good score in history class lol).

I also took some pictures with this old analog camera which belonged to my Dad! I adore the results of analog cameras for sure. So, I want to try it, and hopefully I'll get good photos. Here are some of my favourite shots:

Both pictures by me

The shot on the left reminds me of the early days of the well-dressed gentlemen like those who are appeared on The Sartorialist. Picture on the right is showing the tripod and the camera stood on the historical conference as the mute witness. I also like the vintage photo below it!

The first picture is Leica that was used on the confrence. And the second one is the picture outside that was taken inside. I love how it has the analog effect without getting edited.

We left the museum after our "hunger" was brutally felt (we both didn't have any breakfast lol). After that, we had lunch and had salat zuhur at Waroeng Steak. In WS, we met Melinda, and planned to do her project to make birthday surprise for her boyfriend. Then we headed to our school to meet up with some friends, It was raining on the background and thankfully to Allah, I feel like I'm hardly feeling annoyed by the rain. I've always enjoyed the rain and the after rain, Alhamdulillah. Maybe that's why I really like Bandung! After all, today went so fine :D
