-Cherrybelle, Indonesian girl band
It's heartbreaking more often than not that many Indonesians think that being white is the most beautiful thing ever, because there are so many beautiful people here. For some proof, see these shots below, some of my favorite so far from Indonesia.

| Iqbal (host bro) sporting a farmer's hat, not to mention looking so ASIAN! |
 |
| Iqbal and his girlfriend, Rosi. Check out that height difference! |
 |
| Sari, my best neighbor friend, who screams, "MISS SARAH!!!" runs at me, and hugs my legs whenever I pass! While I usually grit my teeth and bear everyone asking where I am going, I look forward to passing Sari! |

| The Asian squat. |
 |
| Riza (co-worker) looking very legit as a basketball player. |

We filled out the PSAT answer sheets this week and my kids were wonderful why race was important, and I explained that many scholarships are available to people of different backgrounds and ethnicities, and the phrase was uttered "being white is lame." What wonderful pictures, Sarah!
