Bali to Perth


Bali vacation is over, sad to leave the island I heart most, I love BAli. The last 3 days in Kuta we just stayed, relaxing, walked alone the beach, shopped and ate. night life in Bali is pretty much the same. Every night is saturday night. Tourists are keep coming everyday. Good thing Sept is the low season so it was little bit quiet. I did nothing but ate, slept and walked along the beach. It was real vacation so nice.

My flight to Perth was early morning, my sister left first at 5 am. I got to the airport at 6, it was already long queue, there were 3 different flights flew to Perth at the same time. My luggage was overloaded I had 10 kg extra and it cost $100. I didn't want to pay that much so I gave some of my stuff away like blanket, jacket, Indo spices, bag, etc. my hand luggage was also overload. I didn't want to give up my new bag. One of the officers helped me, he gave me free luggage. So instead of paying $100 I only paid $20 to him.
The flight was good at the beginning but nightmare at the end, especially when the plane was about to land. It was pretty shaking and scary. I hate flying. I felt like wanted to cry thinking about booking straight flight to Sydney and get this trip done. $30 return bus shuffle to the airport, it dropped me in front of Bambu hostel.
The hostel; when I saw the room I was ready to walked away. The worse Hostel ever, dirty room, things were all over the floor and worst of is Iam the only girl sharing with 5 guys from England, India, TAiwan, NZ, German, etc. the kitchen is dirty, bathroom is ok. I started to talk to everyone and they all are nice. I started to like this hostel. I thought "they can do it what can't I".
The door has no lock, people come and go whatever they want, I have my bag locked. Can really have a good sleep with the noise and people getting drunk or party next door. Well  at this point price is a matter or I got what I pay. I'm in backpacker life zone where everyone share everything and privacy isn't a priority. It is kind of fun, like a dorm. Seems like these people live here for long enough and they know each other. But no complain all good. We will never know until we try.
And I don't want to miss this opportunity when I have the change to experience the life of real backpacker. I better regret things I haven't done that things I've done :) just 3 nights i can handle it. all good

i wish i could go back n live in US

You won’t miss cookies if u never have one but once you have one and u like it im sure you want more! Im talking about me liking US. my friends might not miss it coz they have never been there and experience the life but I did and I know how it feels like! I have been to only 3 great countries where people wish to stay and immigrant; Canada, US and Australia. I compare a lot about each and I conclude or in my personal opinion US is my choice. It is not because the super power country, police of the world etc, but I see it from the “quality of life” that this county offers for me or perhaps my kids in the future. The quality of life, there is so much better… im talking about very simple things I need for daily life such us things that makes easy in the kitchen ; wash disher, nice oven, good clean water, cheap groceries, cheap food / eating out, good shopping,   very good transportation system , quick response of 911 or fire fighter, good sanitation, quick services (bank/post office/stor

My Indo (Jambi) Wedding

Jambi Traditional wedding cloth hand painting One of the happiest days of my life… Yes the wedding went perfect like what I expected. Words can’t explain how I felt but I will try my best. Seems like everyone likes Yusuf Kevin (that’s what they called him). I really wish he could speak Bahasa, blame on me!! I was too lazy to teach him my language. On Saturday a day before the wedding, we visited my aunty, she offered Shea a place to stay but we refused, rejection isn’t polite here they expected you to always say Yes all the time. it is more to the culture thingy. We went back to the village… everyone was waiting and excited to see Bule (white/western) to take some pictures. Derek and Shea were like celebrity of the weekend. The kids followed wherever they went. Shea bought about 30 kids ice cream which cost only $5 they were all happy. Bless him. We stayed for a few hours and learn the Indo sentence for the marriage. Shea has to remember bahasa word “Aku terima nikahi

My full time job just required me to come 4x a week, i had Friday off last week and Monday off this week so basically i had long weekend! which is great so i could have some times for my self and write this blog. well i did work on Saturday part time job but just for 3 hours making $26/hours extra $60 to pay my phone bill. I call my family alot lately as i miss them more and more, this month i spent $90 for my Vodafone! I wanted to go to Brisbane as  have never been there but perhaps sometime this month or next month.  i cant stuck like this doing nothing but work -eat and sleep. I always end up feeling exhausted at the end of the day and refuse to do anything but sit in the couch and watch TV or sleep. Yesterday i drove to Neutral bay 20  minutes from Manly to see my work mate Maureen, i also met her guy housemate and we had lunch. It was nice. Hose is her housemate is from Mexico and his bf ( i forgot the name) is from Scotland. Everywhere you go in Australia, most of those
