Bali - Day 4 (July 27, 2013)

last day in BALI .. kind feel sad that .. have to back to reality life .. no more lazy + holiday .. but who cares .. just enjoy the last day as fun as I can .. muaHahaHA ..

8,00am .. wake up .. breakfast .. then dear and I went to enjoy the hotel facility, the Swimming Pool .. it was weird swimming in the swimming pool .. mainly because .. the swimming pool is next to the hotel restaurant .. which mean its so open that .. some people who are having their buffet breakfast in the restaurant is watching both of us swimming .. doesn't that feel weird enough ?

10.00am .. check out hotel .. meet up with Gede at hotel lobby .. 
Babi Guling
Gede brought us to someplace to enjoy Bali most famous local food, Babi Guling , as breakfast .. how it taste ? hmm .. i would say it taste a bit like the chinese punya "Golden Pig (金猪) " .. but kinda different in the way they roasted it .. besides .. in Bali .. Babi Guling normally serve together with Lawar & Steam Rice .. 

Bali Massage
After breakfast .. roughly 12.00pm .. we went for Bali Massage .. besides dear , me , ben , jac .. the rest went in and enjoy the massage .. then 4 of us use 1 hour to do shopping around the massage area .. we kinda walk to nearby Big Sales .. why 1 hour ? because their massage service estimate took 1 hour ..

Roughly 1.15pm .. Gede brought us to Hawaii Bali for shopping .. this is a highly recommended place to all readers .. because what ever the things sell here .. is very very very cheap .. its like its totally not believable for us as tourist .. compare to Ubud Market .. this place is like 90% discount of the price the seller there offer .. seriously .. if you want to buy any souvenir .. Hawaii Bali is the place ..

Dinner at Carefore Food Court
3.30pm .. drop Aeris & Jac to airport .. because they taking different flight and they heading to Singapore .. After that .. we went to Carefore for another shopping .. why carefore ? honestly I also not really sure why .. haHAha .. But at least what I know is .. we bought a lots of stuff back to Malaysia .. Furthermore .. we had our dinner at Carefore Food Court too .. haHaha .. I accidentally manage to order a National Drink for Indonesia, Es Teler .. its an awesome drink (at least for those that who like Avacado) ..

7.30pm .. head to Ngurah Rai Airport .. and say good bye to our lovely driver, Gede .. 

10.00pm .. Aircraft depart from Ngurah Rai Airport, Bali ..

12.15am .. AIrcraft arrive at Terminal LCCT, Kuala Lumpur ..

Bali - Day 3 (July 26, 2013)

Its day 3 staying in BALI already .. oh YEAH !!

7.15am .. wake up .. and settle our own breakfast .. me and AhDear decide to save cost .. so we ate our instant noodle cup (Bakso flavour & MeeGoreng flavour) with some local brand chocolate milk .. 8.00am .. everyone meet up with Gede at hotel lobby .. and our journey to Kintamani start .. what is in Kintamani ? continue read/watch then you will know ..

Mount Batur
here we are .. Kintamani .. and its famous volcano, Mt. Batur. Hehe .. for your info .. this is still an active volcano .. so don't play play .. Trekking guide told us that .. the latest eruption was in year 2000 .. so no one know when will it erupt again .. 

Pit Stop of Mount Batur
the awesome lake, Lake Batur
last view before leaving this lovely volcano
High Tea at Gede's uncle's house
not sure what the actual story behind .. but what I heard is .. our team lead , J Dragon , somehow talk to Gede to eat at his place .. and he agree .. so i guess that is how we end up having high tea here .. but the main point is .. this is the most awesome chances for us to really try some local food .. even though some of it look as if its malaysian food .. but those food just look the same .. but the taste is totally different things .. personally thinking .. is either local food is freaking awesome .. or Gede's uncle & aunt 's cooking is awesome .. :)

guess you guys already wonder who is this Gede .. picture above .. the one standing is our driver, Gede .. Actual job .. unknown .. but heard J Dragon say he is photographer .. and according to him .. he is a member of a kite team .. their team has a kite of at least 15 feet wide .. :)

Bali - Day 2 (July 25, 2013)

day 2 in BALI .. oh YEAH !

8.00am .. wait for our 1 day tour guide (purchase package from groupon) ..

1st stop .. Batubulan .. according to tour guide .. this is the place famous with handy craft item ..

2nd stop .. "unknown" .. according to tour guide .. this is the place famous with gold & silver accessory ..

3rd stop .. Celuk .. this place famous with Traditional / Modern Art Culture ..
Picutre showing that the guide telling us some the local stuff/things that they do.. especially their famous, International Kite Competition which normally held at July. but not this year .. because this year, 2013, the Bulan Ramadhan fall on July.. so the competition will delay until after Raya .. according to him .. some kites are very big .. cant imagine how big ? just imagine normally a kite fly by 1 person holding the string .. but this huge kite .. at least need 10+ persons to hold the strings (most of the time, the 1st person will be half floating half pulling the string) .. guess I'll be back to Bali just to watch the well known, International Kite Competition.

our lunch of the day .. CRISPY DUCK ..

5th stop .. Ubud Market ..
Ubud Market .. one of the main tourism place .. lots and lots things to be sold here .. BUT .. according to local advice .. tourist should make bargain with the seller .. once the seller offer x amount of price .. 1st things for tourist buyer to do is .. start bargaining from (at least) 80% of the original price .. YES .. you must bargain .. or else you will be very very very regret just like few of my friends here ..

6th stop .. "unknown" .. place to taste local coffee
another place mostly visited by tourist .. all lots of kind of coffee were planted / sale here .. before knowing which to purchases .. we can also taste out which do we prefer .. besides coffee .. there also some tea to be taste / sale .. the best things is .. they even have the Luwak Coffee here .. what is Luwak Coffee ? Luwak Coffee refers to the beans of coffee berries that been eaten and excreted by the Asian Palm Civet .. what I heard is .. this coffee is quite .. expensive ..

7th stop .. Uluwatu Temple ..
People say this is the best place to enjoy sunset .. how good it is ? I have no idea .. as you can see in the picture .. the sky is too cloudy to enjoy the legendary sunset view .. I guess I'm kind of bad luck today .. no sunset view for me .. T.T

BadLuck-001 - August

she representing them ring me asking if I want to take up the editor job instead of compositing job with them or not.. and then some P&C conversation happen in between .. then they ask me if my expecting salary negotiable or not .. just after I said is negotiable .. she told me that her boss was thinking to hire me with rm2500 .. she will let me think for it for a while ( at least while the position still open to hire ) ..


somehow in my mind .. i kinda think .. this is kinda too low for me .. i need to pay up my loan(s) .. travelling fees/expenses .. travelling time .. etc .. etc .. it kinda make me feel like unless shit happens .. or else I don't think I will accept this ..


An experience with PBB

WAH LAU WEH !!! this Public Bank in XXX branch is so waste of my time !! worse of the worse service that I never had experience before !!

thinking of changing/updating my ATM card .. 12.25pm .. I arrive at the bank .. take number .. wait for my turn .. my number is 3054 while the current number is 3042 .. from what I see .. at least they got 3 customer service counter .. so wait for 12 persons is okay .. 1.00pm .. current number still 3042 .. 1 counter close .. left 2 .. 1.30pm .. current number is 3045 .. and another counter close .. 1.45pm .. calling number 3047 but the person holding number 3063 walk to the counter as in nothing happen .. am thinking okay .. sure the person will kena "shoo" by the counter .. BUT INSTEAD .. the person sit down and the service counter serve him .. WTF !!! 2.08pm .. 3063 customer settle his stuff .. finally am thinking can continue with 3048 .. BUT INSTEAD .. the counter CLOSE !!! in other words .. current active counter .. 0 !!! WTF !!! I know it is lunch time .. but with this kind of 0 counter happening ?! is that even allow ?! 
2.30pm .. 1 counter re-open !! continue from 3048 .. finally at 2.35pm .. 3054 number was call (due to things happen .. somehow a lot of ppl had left .. so i somehow become the next number holder tat still patiently waiting after tat 3063) .. 2.45pm .. somehow / finally i settle my card exchange .. 

moral of the story .. I was wondering why the hack i took only 10 minutes while the rest of the ppl took roughly half an hour to settle their things .. what in the name are they settling with ?! is it the service counter problems ?! or does it because of somethings else ?
