Camille, maybe you can get a 30 day visa on arrival, to spend the few days with your friend and then apply for a 60 visa in Singapore or Malaysia.
Have a look at this link from Lonely Planet thorn tree which has lots of information from travellers about how they have been able to get a 60 day visa for Indonesia from the above countries.
Good Luck. Pamela.
