Padang-Padang, Uluwatu-Bali

Bali Bali Bali!! how i love you...
Uluwatu is the surf point where there are so many beautiful small beaches and good wave.. i took my sister to Padang Padang beach, i like to ask Shea to take me there and used to be one of our favourite beaches. It is about 45 minutes bike ride. It used to be a quiet place to swim but not any more since Julia Robert shot her "Eat Love Pray"'s movie there. Yes this place becomes famous and attracts more tourist. We bike everywhere around island.. it was fun but scary. Balinese drives as crazy as any other big cities in Indonesia. Only God and luck can save you!

We didnt really know where to go even i've been there many times. we are not really good at reading map either so we stopped in every corner ask here and there how to get there. we made it... Padang-Padang beach was packed... but still as beautiful as ever. I bought this purple bikini and swam in the ocean. felt so good!!! wish Shea was there so i could sit and paddle on his surf board. my sister didnt want to swim, she said too many people... she is shy. we dont know any body why should we? i kept telling her we are on vacation enjoy! i pointed this topless western girl whose enjoying the sun on the beach... "she doesn't care, why should you care?" she said too many local. Yes we don't wear bikini in Indonesia. very rarely, not on the beach.

we stayed for hours until sunset, it was beautiful. there was Reggae band playing, it was so nice so beachy, beach, sun, blue ocean, waves, and wind.... cant ask more than these! beautiful day.

Jimbaren is famous with seafood restaurants on the beach, we went there for dinner... i have never been there. It is only half and hour bike from Uluwatu. The restaurant display aquarium with live seafood inside.. we come and choose which one to eat.. feel sorry for those seafood. they were about to be eaten in our table:). We had fried Calamari, water grass, rice and seashells for less than $18 including coconut drink and my favourite ice lemon tea. Yum!!!

They set these white chair and table on the beach with candle light, sound of the wave and nice ocean breeze. there was music playing slow beach song.. ahhh what a beautiful day what a beautiful dinner and what a life. Im on vacation!

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 ...

Motherhood

Motherhood! I really enjoy being a mum, perhaps because my kids are young and I am still in complete control of their life! their well being are depends on me as their mum. They said "Teach them what you wanted to learn when you were a little instead of give them what you wish to have" im not sure what I wanted or wish to learn. Perhaps Piano, I always wish I could be able to play any musical instruments or perhaps I wish I have the "people skill" how to deal with people as I was so shy. Most of those leaders aren't really the smartest but one thing they have in common is their skill of how to convincing or pursuing people! I know for sure the only precious thing I could give my kids is my time! playing and explaining thing. they are little so everything is new and there is always new exciting thing for them to know. like last week I told Zack we are going to have a walk to the hill next to little manly beach where there are little bunnies because...

Walk thru Harbour Bridge

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, ...
