My trip to Bali - Part 1.
Photo taken with the people at BaliTerazo..the restaurant where i had my first dinner in Bali.
Day 1 - 29/12/2004
8.50am
Started the day at 6am with my dad waking me up,telling me that it's time to go already. Woke up,got ready and packed a few more items before heading out the door. My dad gave me another RM300 on top of the RM800 that i've already changed to rupiah..I'm now a millionaire. hehe. ;) 2,700,000 rupiah is the amount u can get for RM1,100. Anyways,got to the Kelana Jaya LRT station around 6.30am and got to KL Sentral around 7am..boarded the KLIA Express and got to KLIA about 1/2 hour later. :) Man, checking in took ages. There were so many people (read : indonesians) at the AirAsia counter..imagine tons of cows trying to squeeze through a small gate..that's basically how bad it was. 6 counters open but there were like 10 lines lining up to get to the counter..and the people just start their own line and try to squeeze their way to the counter..really really uncivilized! ;) I think i waited for like 20 minutes then i decided to ask if there was another way to check in and this nice gentleman at the counter told me a quick way to check in. :) So i checked in without having to line up with the cows..whoops,i mean the people. ;) :P Really thank God for that favor. :) So here i am now, sitting at Burger King having my mushroom swiss for breakfast, waiting for 9.55am to board the plane to Bali. :)
Bought myself a HotLink sim pack cause i wanted a number thats free international roaming so that people (read : my parents & 'someone') to contact me while i'm in Bali. Oh well,just wanted a number just in-case i need to call home for money or something like that. hehe. :P Damn,stupid mushroom swiss is making me get a stomachache. Guess i'm not suppose to have such good stuffs so early in the morning. ;) Better go take a good bombing session first before i get on the 3 hour flight to Bali. :) Feeling pretty psyched and scared at the same time..wonder how do u explain/term such mixed feelings? :) Gonna keep a diary/journal so i can keep myself occupied if i'm ever bored of sunbathing and taking photos. hehe. ;) Kinda scared cause the first thing that i have to do when i get there is to look for a place to stay, a cheap place for 8 days. Guess i'll be fine since i''ll arrive around 1pm. :) Yeah,didnt get any rooms at Hard Rock Hotel cause it's booked solid for the New Year. Doesn't really matter as long as i'm here partying and enjoying myself. :) Just need a roof over my head & a place to sleep for the night. :) I must say that this Burger King outlet rocks..they're playing all the old school favorites..such as 'No Woman, No Cry', really good '80s music. ;) What a nice way to start the day. :D
10.40am
Flights been delayed..everybody's pissed about it but i dont know why i'm not. I have a feeling that i'm the only one that's not pissed about it. Usually, i'll be one of those that's scolding the person at the counter for the delay or the mistake..just like how the people here are doing right now..but now,i realise that even though u scold the person or make tons of noise and trouble for the person..it's no use,it wont make the plane arrive earlier nor will it do anything to make the problem better..u'll just make the person angry/sad and u'll be all pissy and it would spoil ur mood and ur holiday. For goodness sake,u're going on a holiday..dont think its a very nice way to start ur holiday and start the morning by getting angry and scolding people,rite? What are the people thinking about anyway? ;) might even get u all stressed up for no reason at all..They even complain that its a bad airline company..So erm,what do u expect? Some people are just big huge dumb@$$..pay a small amount and expect a big return/perks. So now we're all waiting for the plane to be ready for us to board. They are allowing people to go to the toilet..and come back in without going through the security check again..I wonder,doesnt that defeat the purpose of having the security check in the first place? all i have to do is just say i need to go to the toilet to collect my stuffs and i can take over the plane if i wanted to. ;) Wanted to scare the air-stewardess by saying that i have a bomb with me now..hehe..but i think they wont be taking that joke lightly so i kept it to myself..hehe. :P Yay,can board the plane already. Bali, here i come! ;)
4.10pm
Reached Bali like 2 hours ago but the Customs took forever..Thank God,i found a place to stay..about 100,000 rupiah per night..thats about RM43.50 per night for 8 days. Was kinda hoping for somewhere cheaper but i have a feeling that most of the places would be full already with people staying for the New Year. :) It's pretty ok..called the Bunut Garden, a bed and breakfast place..so pretty reasonable i guess..just that there isnt warm water, no air-con and no tv. :) But hell,i'm on a holiday..i can live without a tv but was kinda hoping for the air-con and the warm water. :) Unpacked abit already..going out to check the place out and see how far am i from the beach. ;) I Hope i dont have to walk to much just to reach the beach. :) Dont have a map with me so i guess i'll just walk until i cant see anymore tourist then i'll turn back. hehe. :P Mom just messaged me..no idea how to reply her..guess its pretty hard to react since i've never talked to her much. *YAWN* Feel like sleeping already but guess i should go out and check out the place before it gets dar. :) think i only have RM34 left on my hotlink card. Better not sms too much already. ;) Think i should brought a IDD calling card from home..Oh well. :)
10.30pm
Just got back to the room..really tired from all the walking. :) Gonna take a bath then going to sleep i guess. :) Tomorrow's another day and i'll have to plan out what to do. So many places to go and so many things to do..maybe i'll head over to Denpasar,the capital of Bali or maybe to Sanur beach which is on the east of Bali. The girls are aplenty here! ;) Really pretty girls around on the beach. ;) My eyes are going crazy just trying to focus and walk past them. hehe. :P Tons of QuikSilver, BillaBong, Ripcurl and other surf shops around. :) Maybe i'll buy some stuffs to bring home..but really hoping for a sale..hehe. ;) Gotta bring home some souvenirs for people. ;) So i guess thats my first day in Bali..exciting! :D
