BIG BAD WOLF #2 JAKARTA 2017

Biblichor took me back to 1 year ago as I experienced the first great book sale. As for me, books are lifetime adventures. You can re-visit your most favorite places in a second, or run into your favorite persons forever. Because they kept all of our dreams inside. They kept all the distance near, they offer you great explorations all around the world, and they brought surreal and imaginary world right upon your eyes.

I'm so happy that I got a chance to be their VIP customer. This year, they gave VIP tickets for new members (you can register yourself through their website on their pre-sale date) or by sending your blog/vlog account to their email and they sort you. So, I took option 2 as I can't re-regist to their web :( too bad. But it's okay.

BBW held from April, 21st 2017 'til May, 2nd 2017 with total 280 hours non-stop! WOW! What a great offer, rite? They really serves bookworms well. They had Mrs. Susi, Indonesia's Marine Minister for the opening speech. 

Because I came too early here, I can't pass the main door until the ceremony end, so I took the side one. As I walked in, they surprised me with a lot of food trucks and grand kid's play area! I thought, "What an amazing improvement!" yes, they got it all to calm down your hunger and supply your kids boredom. This year's BBW took about 3-4 halls to support your demands.

Then, I headed towards the heaven! Booooks! I welcomed with the "sorting area" where people can sort out their books, or just take a rest for a while. Tho, BBW facilitate sorting area, but I don't know why people likes to sort their books here and there (oops, including me), maybe it's because of well, to save their time.

and, there was a lot of books.... boooks.... books....

Cheap imported books of course. Start from IDR 30k to about IDR 400k and also there's a lot of kids activity stuffs too!

Plus, you can find all your favorite genres of books! They have it all, ganks!

 This section is JOURNAL SECTION. Ultra cute journals! 

All genres of books got different color sections and tags. There's non fiction, fiction, romance, general, Young Adults, with sub-genre from References, Cookery, Design, Architecture, Science, Graphic Novels, Kids, and so on. The main genre hanged upon the ceiling, so people can find 'em easily. And the sub one, was on the 'table'. 

You can find various visitors from kids to adults.

One thing that disappoints me the most, was it's such a packed VIP PREVIEW SALE. We supposed to experienced the privilege to be the VIP holder. I thought, they should've distribute the limited tickets. Not everyone who registered could be the vip holder. I queued along the line to the cashier for 3 hours. Tho they got fast track, but it's only for Mandiri's customer or you can sign up for the credit card and get the facility. But I appreciated their fast action to apologies and covered up all the cashier queue mess the next day. So, we don't need to queue for hours. Yes, they still need to learn and discover customers demands and needs. But this year's improvement was highly appreciated.

GOOD JOB BBW TEAM! Can't wait to see you next year! Looking forward to it.

POPCON ASIA 2016 - JAKARTA

Hi, guys!

This is my first time being at Popcon Asia. All just for the sake of fancy things hunting party. 

Since I'm not a big fans of Japanese Animation/Manga/Anime or what else, so I just hoping that there would be any stand that sold some cute stuffs instead of anime characters. Ended up, I found pretty much of them. Happily sightseeing all the great artists, illustrators with all their amazing various stuffs. Wow, I didn't know before that as a people that jump into creative world, it would be so interesting enjoy others works like this :) I'm blessed. Well, that's one of my goal going to Popcon, tho. Oh geez, even their namecards are sell-able. I met fashion blogger yet talented artist, if you guys know from bigdreamers blog! Photo and link below.

So, here at POPCON ASIA 2016, there are so many programmes you can enjoy. From workshops, seminars, live drawing competitions, and portfolio reviews. And nearly 40 artisan stands! Selling stuffs like postcards, keychains, original toys, wooden toys, cosplay things, enamel pins, pins, bags, shirts, notebooks, coloring books, and so on. Oh, before I go further, this event held from 12-14th August 2016 at Jakarta Convention Center. Since our works were a high risk stolen by a not responsible one, so BEKRAF or Badan Ekonomi Kreatif opened a booth where YES, we can register our trademark or brand. This is such a good news and main attraction for me. Also, there's an Animamix Exhibition held here.
