Last night, after i watched Quadrantic Meteor Shower
(and turns out the weather are bad in my city)
I dreamed a dream of this girl :

Dressel

Red Haired girl, Dressel

I have no idea who's she.
In my dream, i met her when she was picking something
(maybe moving out) from her house.
I saw her parents, and there she's, catching my glance.
And i knew, there's something.. that really.. *i can't explain*
I said, "you're very.. beautiful"
I don't know. It's just... really weird when i said that,
but then.. her cheeks turns out to red. She said, "Thank you"

And then,. i big noise coming..
it's like the ground shaking.
My brother keep yelling at me to runaway,
Her parents, dressel's parents keep yelling at me to stay away from her

And i thought a second, "Why? I did nothing"

My brother already turn the engine on, and i have to keep moving,
keep running from.. something that i didn't know what's that
And Dressel pulled me close.
I could see her eyes very unique.
Her eyes,. it's reddish brown. Just like brick colour.

But what's weird is..
Her right eyes.. the iris pattern is spiral.
Red and black.
And left eyes.. is just normal. Reddish brown.

Mysterious Red haired girl
Spiral
And she sticked her forehead to mine,
and saying something.
I didn't remember what's actually she's saying,
but i think she want me to keep running.

Running? From what?
Is this dream.. have any connection with.. that dream..
that Earl grey dream?
Earl Grey keep telling me the same saying..
Run.

well, for all of you who haven't read the previous dream, here it is:

Are there any connection?
Seriously, i didn't make it,.. and honestly,.. i'm a bit afraid of this
I don't know somehow someway, i think there's a connection between this dream and my previous dream about earl grey...
And.. it's almost 2013.
It's only a time to know what's going happen on 26 february 2013 for me..

Throwing back to Malang in 1930,
still rich with its colonialism building, 
the age when our land still in dutchmen hands.
The age where Karina & Vlahos live (read our novel 'De Komst' here first!)
happily in their lovely house in Idjen Boulevard area.

I got the pictures from 'Tropenmuseum' museum in netherland,
They got so many interesting collection, anyway!

And..nah, this is Idjen Boulevard.
The place where dutchmen and their family live...
(Including Vlahos & Karina too! And Heinrich & Pratiwi..)

Idjen Boulevard

Idjen Boulevard, Colonialism era
 And this is.. shops from the view of 'Pasar Besar'
you can see 'Tio' shop in the right side, the shop still stand until right now :3
(you can find it beside Altara moslem shop)
they sell so many good vintage stuff just like jewelry, wayang, batik equipment, etc

Pasar Besar Malang
 And this is 'Neutrale Lagere School' located in Jl.Dr.Soetomo 35 (now)
This school originally dedicated for Dutch kids, that's why it named 'Neutrale School Vereeniging' or 'Europase Lagere School'.
The school right now has been bought by the catholic missionary after burnt down by inlander between 1940-1950 and now stand as 'Kolese Santo Yusuf'

Neutrale Lagere School (Kolese Santo Yusuf *right now*)

This is the church beside 'Jami' mosque' 
you can still find it near alun-alun kota right now :3

Church
 And.. This is Kajoetangan Straat
It really hard to recognize it at first because this street totally looks so different!
Everything has changed.. and i have no idea which shop still stands right now...
well, umm maybe a shop in the left side of the photos... but still i doubt it :-/

Kayutangan street, Malang
 Ah, a Dawet seller in pasar besar! :D
The dutchmen must be really love the taste, huh?
(I think about it, actually. To put a scene where Vlahos and Karina walk around and bought so many local foods like Dawet *but i have no idea where to put this scene*)


This! Stasiun Kota Lama!

Stasiun Kota Lama
 And... church beside Mcdonald (right now)
i have no idea what's the name of the church until right now,
but you can still found it in the same place this day. Located near Alun-alun kota Malang :)
Looks so.. gloomy

Church alun-alun kota Malang

This is military hospital,
which i have no idea where's this place right now.
Is it Lavallette? Or Saiful Anwar? 
anyoneeee??!

Anyway, i could use this one for my novel :-)

military hospital
 Palace Hotel, still stand in the same place, located near Jami' mosque :D


 Anyway, i really wanted to go back to 1930,
seeing so many dutchmen in the street, people with kebaya,.. 
I know, basically as a 'real' Indonesian, we musn't think of this,
because we're the one who got really misery in this era.

But honestly,
i wanna be like Vlahos & Karina. For real :')
Ah, the main idea of love between two people from a different background,
Dutchmen & Inlander 
This.. is.. just... *faint*
