Bali

March 26th, 2007 by nickypm

Went bali recently… Heard so much bout it yet haven’t been to it. Now it’s my turn to explore the island famous for honeymoon. Our flight scheduled on 13/03/07 5 something. 8 of us can’t wait to get ourselves straight to bali…only to know that our flight has been delayed for 50 min (consider a normal scenario for Airasia) siennz…

Flight to bali take approximately 3 hours… can’t really sleep well with my excited mood + Airasia seat >_<

We arrived at Denpasar airport at bout 9pm FINALLY. Can’t wait to step my feet on bali ^_^ after picking up our baggages, we jogged our way out to the exit. Megah who is our guide already prepared a van to fetch us to our hotel at Kuta.

Upon arrived at Inna Kuta hotel, we discussed our schedule with Megah and decided to go for snorkelling + visit to Turtle island tomorrow.

We were so STARVING that we can eat a whole cow (sorry it’s a bit exaggarate hehe). After unloading our stuff in our room, we went out to kuta for food "hunting". Since it’s already 10 something night, ALL shops are closed except for some restaurants and convenience stores sigh sigh…

After much walking or shall i say dragging ourselves through kuta street, we finally settled our dinner/supper at Melasti cafe.

I ordered nasi campur which is a lil similiar to our nasi lemak.

We were invited on stage to dance with the singers at Melasti cafe. The singers incredibly can sing up to 5 languages of songs… even hokkien song phew….

We woke up early in the next morning to get ourselves prepare for snorkelling + turtle island tour at Tanjong Benoa.

Breakfast at Inna Kuta hotel is scrumptious with its breakfast buffet…

It was a rainy day at Kuta, Megah said the rain shall stop shortly. Unfortunately, it rained till late in the afternoon… sienzz

Anyway, we still went for it. Snorkelling is not recommended in Bali as i think our Redang and Tioman has much more to offer if were to compare.

From left agnes, selina me and ashley shivering on "glass" boat.

They cut a rectagle shape on the bottom of the boat and replace it by a glass so that you can see through it. Well nothing much to be seen as rainy day has make the sea blurry…

We then head to Turtle island after 40 minutes of snorkelling. Turtle island is actually just a place where people there breed turtles…and iguana and bat and even snake =_=" i wonder what kinda animal they won’t keep here.

iguana…

We were back in Kuta around 2 something. Hungrily searching for food again… we first stopped at one Bakso stall selling the very own indon Bakso which i think it’s absolutely delicious and unbelievable cheap!! less than RM2 can you believe it?!

Bali_129

We walked further down the street and saw another food stall… it’s like the indon version of our mamak.

ayam goreng lalapan…soooo yummy

We then walked back towards the hotel and decided to go for shopping in Kuta discovery mall before leaving for Ubud.

Ubud is a decent lil town located just 1 hour drive from Kuta. Honestly, i like Ubud more than Kuta. It’s not as noisy and commercialize as Kuta. Our hotel at Ubud is simply gorgeous with its exotic balinese style.

Bali Spirit Hotel@Ubud

During our stay in Ubud, we have tried out the Bebek bengil dirty duck and the ayam maliboro aka pressurized chicken recommended by forumers in cari.com. I personally would recommend the dirty duck as the duck is really cripsy and the atmosphere is damnnnn nice i tell ya… do go in evening time as you can enjoy their amazing padi field view. We unfortunately went in too late and it was too dark to capture any nice shot.

We went on to Tanah Lot on our 3rd day at Bali. The lengendary temple placed at/on the sea. It’s a well known tourist spot in Bali therefore LOTS of tourists around. Anyway, we did quite a lot of shopping over there so much so that it seems that we came here for shopping instead of visting the temple itself. *keke*

Massage and spa is a must try service in Bali. It’s super cheap and the environment is perfect for relaxation. We went for spa at Verona spa in Ubud. The spa that’s recommended by forumers as well. I took the javanese lulur spa package which only cost less than RM40. It normally cost at least double up the price for the same thing in KL. The spa room is half "open air" style. The wall that is facing the padi field is only at my waist length. So people can actually see you enjoying your spa and showering inside the spa room!!

Well i shall not review more bout Bali as for those of you who wanna know more bout it should go find out yourself. n_n It’s a great place to visit and i ensure you can shop till you drop and ready to moan for your bank account figure. >_<

信任

January 7th, 2006 by nickypm

信任 这两个字,说简单,但有多少人能做到百分百。。。尤其是被背叛过的人。

或取说背叛有些严重,但被欺骗过的人,再也很难交出完全的信任了。

彼此猜疑对方是多累的一件事,但人往往避不了猜疑的“游戏”。无论是在朋友的阶段,暧昧,还是情侣的阶段。

你觉得你自己是个能被信任的人吗?而你又能交心去百分百信任别人吗?

that’s what friends are for

December 19th, 2005 by nickypm

was watching the O.C yesterday, this episode ends with the song by Dionne Warwick "That’s what friends are for", i don’t know why but i was touch by that song at that moment where the O.C buddies were gather together during hannukah and singing that song. That song reminds me of what friends are for and the meaning of true friendship.

Maybe you just can’t keep some friendships the way it was used to be, but sometimes it’s time for it to go to a different level. Life goes on for everybody… if you can’t keep it the way it was used to be, the last thing you can do is to mourn over it. You have to accept the fact that people comes around, goes around. What’s more we’re talking about people here, people change. Perhaps you might think that i’m a little too pessimistic, but that’s the fact afterall. For this so, i treasure the friends that went through my ups and of course my very downs with me. You guys know who you are…

Human hearts

November 21st, 2005 by nickypm

They are hard to understand, they are unpredictable, they can be emotional, and they can be rational occasionally.

What’s more they can make you cry, hurt and depressed. You need to guess what they actually want by a simple gesture or glance.

Sometimes you just tired of guessing what they want. However they can make you laugh, make you feel appreciated, make you feel loving once you’re “click” with them.

You might think you can have them in control, but turn out you’re not.

You’ll never know your status but sometimes they don’t even know themselves.

You will not like to mess with them but they have the lure to make you do so.

Angelic or devilish? What do you think?

backfire

September 21st, 2005 by nickypm

kinda moody… still getting myself used to working life…Sometimes my temper can just go off without signal, still trying to minimize that >_<

I can’t help it but feel that my negative energy is growing. Gonna try to release that by not taking everything too seriously. Still finding the balance point of judging myself. Indeed everybody is finding their own standpoint everyday…just ask yourself where and what do you stand for?

September 7th, 2005 by nickypm

A man asked his father-in-law, "Many people praised you for a successful marriage. Could you please share with me your secret?"
The father-in-law answered in a smile, "Never criticize your wife for her shortcomings or when she does something wrong. Always bear in mind that because of her shortcomings and weaknesses, she could not find a better husband than you."

We all look forward to being loved and respected. Many people are afraid of losing face. Generally, when a person makes a mistake, he would look around to find a scapegoat to point the finger at. This is the start of a war. We should always remember that when we point one finger at a person, the other four fingers are pointing at ourselves.

If we forgive the others, others will ignore our mistake too.

granny

September 3rd, 2005 by nickypm

was thinking about my granny again… these days i try to avoid thinking about it, it would make me feel the pain all over again and i’m not sure i can handle that. But is avoiding the best way to deal with it? Maybe it is for me… i’m not sure though.

expectation

August 13th, 2005 by nickypm
the more you expect, the more you’ll fear losing it. You gonna learn not to put so high expectation on something but that’s not usually what one can control. Emotons, feelings are always out of your control, that’s what separate us from robots or you can say it’s the "fun" part of being a human…
