Went Crazy With “Tujuh Belasan”!

September 25, 2014 10:07 am

August was always a special month for us Indonesians when the festive aura of Independence Day celebration blasts through the whole month.

This year, starting from spontaneous chit-chat ideas, we managed to organize the traditional event of various races to celebrate our Independence Day. The race theme was “Rama-rame Tujuhbelasan” or “Went Crazy on the Seventeenth”. Although it was not exactly performed on the August 17th but we all know the spirit and anticipation was equally high.

Derived by a strong will, self-sponsored and spontaneous committee, these August traditional races was successfully performed…and it was BLAST!

We got 7 races category: the ‘krupuk’ (rice cracker) eating race, marble run race, put pencil in a bottle race, tug-a-war race, dance with balloon race, eat chilly-fried race and Independence costume contest. And for the record, these are the winners of the race:
