Sunday Updates

Hi fellas! Yes I know, its been a long time ago since my last post #CallMeBadBloggerThen. But for your information, I've been through so many things that time. Therefore, to redeem my laziness, I will give you a couple of post today, yeay! Before that, let me explain the quick of my journey along my "silent time"..

MARCH

This is my photo diary about my sickness at the hospital. 

1. DC from my doctor

2. The result of my blood test ( after 3 days of fever )

3. My hand got so many red dots *DB signs*

4. Finally, 21st of March went to HOSPITAL *my first and last time i wish*

5. I have to shoot my meals after i ate that, my boyfie asked me for that

6. Watching TV alone. almost everyday i spent at the hospital by myself :_(

7. Almost healed. Time for taking pict with my nephew

8. Getting better, look at my face, it's shinner than the days before hahaha! 

9. The best thing of getting sick is, you GOT what you've want. Yes, i want lasagna please..

I know, I'm kinda forgot to tell you that I've been stay at the Hospital around 5 days because of DB ( Demam Berdarah ). It's happened in the middle of March, 21st of march for the exact. You know, I never been so that awful before. My sick list is just flu, cough, or the worst is maag. But that time was the worst ill of my life for sure. I've never been stay at the hospital because of my ill ( except when i was new baby born, i'm a weak baby, doctor ever diagnosed my have a paru-paru basah *which i don't know the English is ).

So that's would be my first and last time laying there. My hemoglobin was only 86 that time ( from the normal is 140-440 ) which is under the average, and its getting lower at the day i went to the hospital ( its 56, wtf !@#$% ). So I've been there for 5-really-suffering-and-sick-and-awful-days because of the infus was really sick, and 2 TIMES A DAY the doctor will take 5ml of my blood, REALLY SICK OF THEM!

The best news is, I GAIN my WEIGHT down for 3 KILOGRAMS everybody!!! *SUPER PROUD*

APRIL

Went to BALI HAI!!!

I will post in separate post later, yeay!

MAY

Look at my recent profile at my Facebook :')

Yes, yes.. I finally decided to resign from my last office PT. Access Asia Holiday , then TRYING and MOVING to hotel. Mmm, that's my really BIG decision, that's also my BIG step which is can change everything in my life ( a new and better level of my career of course ). Sometimes I can't believe what I've done. A little regret comes into my heart, but, I'm kind a 'keras kepala' person. I will hold on into what i'm believe in it. Praise The Lord, I'm still grateful with this decision I took. Why it feels so tough? First, I'm not an easy to blend with new peoples, hard to adaptation person, and enjoy already in the comfort zone.

So the questions comes up to my head, how if the environment was not good as my last office? how if i have no partner? how if the job is boring? how if that? how if this? But, hey, I have to move on! I have to take a little ( OR MORE BIG step ) for better life. To pursue my dream.. 

Now I'm almost 2 months here ( works as Reservation at The Oasis Beach Benoa ) , and I ( have to ) enjoying my jobs here. Even tough, the reality laughing so loud at me. I have to face it, I have to fight for it. 

Well, I still need more energy for that, therefore I need you guys to pray for me ( may God bless you, whom pray for me abundantly ) :')

JUNE

My love for my BoyFie is getting bigger, even we still arguing sometimes. But that's what they called LOVE, isn't?

Nothing much I could say regarding the last June. Since I still on process to adaptation. Arghhh, it's getting harder but I won't give up! And my love life also. I wont give up on our relationship baby.. God know's we worth ed :')

JULY

Chillin with my best best best friend! what a lovely 

Yes, finally, after our last meeting ( on Elisa's birthday on November ) we meet again. With mom-soon-to-be Icha ( look at her 4months tummy, big isn't? ) and the hijab's Elisa. All of us changes guys.. 8 months of living apart, makes us grow older, wiser and 'bigger' :p But the trend mark of us is not changed at all, OUR CRAZINESS. hahaha.. I hope we still could gathering together like before, maybe with her child, her husband and mine :p

Well that's my updates from march till now. I promise will post more. And I hope I will get more followers btw T.T

xoxo

Thanks God Its March

Time flies so fast, isn't? I still though just last month i wrote love-sad-story with my EX, posting a lot of things about him, but now, I had a new partner of life :') 

All times I've been passed, means a lot for me. God trying to teach me every single day i lived. 

There's so much blessing I got from HIM. All the bitter sweet comes along that time, and bring me to my-grateful-list-which-I-have-to-share-to-you  :

*Thanks God, I still alive till today, its the GREATEST GRACE from my only one Jesus.

*Thanks God, I didn't waste so many times to crying for my EX. 

*Thanks God, You give me the new ( and hope my last ) partner of life named Simon Angga.

*Thanks God, my family knows about my relationship. And I wish my family could accept him and his family too.

*Thanks God, I've been passed 1 month 5 days with my lovely Simon Angga. I also wish GOD will bless our relationship, I just want GOD controlling our relationship, because HE knows what best for us. My pray till today, I could be forever with him. Yeah, i have a lot of wish regarding my relationship ( maybe will share for the next post ). 

*Thanks God, now I live alone ( not with my parents or even my sister/brother ). Well sometimes with my friend office ( Rahma ). All things I have to managed by myself, from washes clothes *Aaa i miss my mommy! since I always complaining everyday while she washing all my clothes :( I have to buy meals since I still not have a stove or any cooking tools x( I even not have Tv guys! How poor I am >.<
But again, it brought me to the decision that my family choose. All those circumstance make me to have a super big big heart. My life even yours never getting easier, trust me! It will getting harder and harder, but sure, it can be BETTER and BETTER if you could pass it. The question is, how come I ( in my case ) pass it all? My answers : KEEP ON GOING in GOD PATH, STOP COMPLAINING and START BE GRATEFUL in EVERY SITUATION AND CONDITION.

Yes, nothing we could do except be grateful in every condition. I know, it wont change the conditions, but it really works to change your mindset, your mood, your heart, yes, it would make you happier, it would make everything LOOKS easier. It helps anyway. 

And last but not least, 

*Thanks God, its MARCH already! Yeay, the month of my birthday. My month!!! 

I will getting older, and (wish) wiser, and (wish) stronger, and (wish) smarter. 

Do I have so much wishes for this month? OF COURSE! So March, please be the nicest month for me :)

Another SUNday..

I'm back to blogging, yay! After my super-busy-time for moving out from my (rent) house to the temporary room ( in Indonesia called KOST *oh I just googled that words formerly taken from Dutch ). Yes, I finally rent A room for my self. Even still nearby my sister's room. 

Too complicated to be explain anyway *sorry.

So here I am, trying hard to be more often blogging, especially for outfit post :)

This is my outfit for last Sunday, while I went to church..

What I wore : Unbranded chiffon dress (include inner) bought at ITC Fatmawati,
Necklace from  Frezia  , Unbranded tights,  and Amelie from Up 

*My self timer camera mode : ON*

Looking the picture above reminds me about my old rental house. That's my messy bedroom. Yes, blue color not because I love blue, but it could make your room cooler ( i'm sure ). Ah, too much memories there. And I'm going to cry now :'( Gonna miss you my little peace house. It's been 3 years we used you for our shelter. You are the witness of our (sad and glad) stories. You'll be always in my mind, even my bedroom are the suck one, because of the leaky roof x_x 

I still wish I could buy you, someday :')

Last but not least, that picture taken by me, with self timer. So sorry for bad resolution, because yeah, my suck-but-i-loved-to-be-there room is too tight and again messy, only that photo that I could got >.<

And sure, this is the last, this is FEBRUARY baby! Andddd I can't wait for my birthday on March *one step closer :p  .. Oh, I can't wait for valentine also, since on 27 January 2013, I'm officially had a boyfriend *dancing* 

Well, will see what will happened for the next, just wish us luck! :)

I Found YOUR paradise in Gili Trawangan..

OMG, OMG, OMG! I've never been excited like this before! Yay, finally I'll post about my sweetest escape to Gili Trawangan. YES, GILI TRAWANGAN! You ever heard about that, right? If not, I will gladly to inform you :)

So, my journey was started from a few months ago, I planned went to Gili on Ied Mubarak's holiday. 

Then, I googled a lot of things about Gili. My planned was for me and my office mate, Rahma which is will dare to go alone by plane, but at the end of time, the plan was just a plan..

But, I still in my obsession to go to Gili. Then I asked my family to go with me. And in the last minute time, I found Clara ( my elementary school mate ) able to join with me. Any happier than this? I guess no.

Then the journey was started from 25 Oct 2012, in the middle of the sunny afternoon, me, clara, my parents, my sis and her hubby and their little lovely son, we went to Padang Bay ( in Karang Asem Bali ) harbor, yes, by motorcycles. We arrived around 5pm, I thought.

Then around 7pm, we're in boat ( or ship? ). The journey to reach Lembar ( Lombok ) harbor approximately 5 hours. Yes, 5 hours shaking by the ship. If you really want to know how does it goes, hmm, for sure, you should try that! It's like you're in kora-kora ( Dufan ). I'm sea sick, even all of my family too. But thanks to antimo and fresh care for being such a effective and useful best friend along my trip. Just like a sponsorship, huh? No, I'm not :p

Actually, the journey of the ship on the ocean was only 3 hours, but we need to waited for queuing at the pier. So this is the picture for the ferry ( ship ) and us.

Don't ask me why my face was so ugly.
As i said, I'M SEA SICK.
And this pic taken for around 1 am ( mid night )

My father, my nephew and my sis.
Still in the ferry, waiting for recline to the pier..

SHIPs.

Then, we arrived in Lombok! Yay! I could not more happier than this! We directly went to my family house in Mataram. It takes around 30 minutes from harbor to Mataram kota.

We're slept over in my family house. In the early morning I wake up, because honestly I can't sleep all night long and yet excited for my Gili trip. Thanks to my beloved family in Lombok, they're generously drive me and Clara to Bangsal harbor by car. But my father followed us by my motorcycle, so me and Clara will be easier for the return. FYI, I went with Clara only to Gili Trawangan. My family, stay in Mataram. It tooks not more than 1 hour , guys! We not passed Sengigi, but the other ways. Sorry I'm forget the name of the road, but it's like canyon on the left side and there's a lot of monkey >.< 

This is our ship or boat?

Yes, we're backpacker(s)

From our boat, Gili is in front of our eyes.

Again, we have to passing the ocean.. But this time only takes 30-40 minute. Luckily, the wave was friendly at that time.
When we stepped on my feet to the sand of Gili, my first impression was : "OMG! AM I DREAMING? OMG I'M IN GILI! OMG, THIS IS REAL RIGHT?" Yeah, alay expression. 

Then with our very confident way, we walking straightly into gang to find home stay or bungalow. 

Some of the home stay are full, but again, lucky us, we found the home stay, guess what, the price is only Rp. 150.000/room/night ( yeah, without breakfast and air conditioner ) But worth to lived in.

I thought we could got the cheaper rate, but due to we're too tired and and also excited to looking around, we directly agreed with that rate.

The name of the home stay is LE-FUNK, well, I will share the pic for you. And some more tips, for you which want to backpacking, don't worry about the home stay, because there are a lot of home stay, yes the price is around Rp. 100.000-150.000 ( with fan ) or Rp. 250.000-350.000 ( with AC ). There also available villa/hotel/resort in front of the beach, but I don't know how much it cost, so sorry.

In Gili Trawangan, there's no any kind of motor transportation. Only available bicycle and cidomo ( horse-drawn carriage ). I prefer to rent a bicycle because we can used it all day long. The price for rent a bicycle is Rp. 30.000/day. Most of rental bicycle will offers you price Rp. 50.000, but you could bargain for sure. But it is impossible for less than Rp. 30.000. 

Those are cidomo, people, me and my bicycle.

Right on my back is rumah lumbung, the signature of Lombok.
That's one of the resort in front of the beach.

This is almost the edge of Gili Trawangan.

Look those pretty blue sky and ocean..

This is the bedroom. IGNORE THOSE SLEEPING PEOPLE, PLEASE..

The door of the bathroom

The corner is our room for those day.

The key of our home stay.

So after we found the home stay, and rented a bike, we directly surrounding Gili Trawangan. After get tired, we decided to go to swimming in the edge of Gili Trawangan, because the place is more quite.

No more words, let the the pic tells you more.

I can see my hand!!! it tells how clear that sea.

Self Timer.

Hey union jack, you arrived safely in Gili.

The bule(s)

*major love*

my face tanned already.

I haven't any bikini nor swim suit, therefore I swim with hotpants *silly*

my paradise!

After sun burning there, we decide to go around to having lunch. FYI, there are a lot of restaurant/cafe/bar *or whatever those name* with sea side view with quite expensive for me.
Can you imagine price of slice sandwich is Rp. 45.000 goes to?! Sorry to say, I'm an Indonesian which eat a plate of rice and sandwich are not enough for my tummy. And Rp. 45.000 means 3 days of my lunch ration. Ok then, call me stingy. No, my defense is I'm a backpacker :p
Until finally we found rumah makan padang *Thanks GOD, there still available cheaper price for lunch*
Even the cheaper is Rp. 22.000 with not to good taste *wtf *alright, stop complaining girl! It already happened. After we ate, we went to swim again. Well actually we want to rent snorkeling kit but, again, because we're backpacker, we don't have much money for rent snorkeling kit. If you want to know the price for rent snorkeling kit, it is around Rp. 30.000 ( mask and fin ) *maybe a day* Or pay Rp. 80.000-100.000 for snorkeling kit and you will be delivered to 2 Gili's ( Meno and Air ) by boat.
Well, this post will be full by explosive photos, please be advised with me :p

Sun burning + drying our half wet body.

Capturing the bule(s) again

my tanned skins

After got our skin super tanning, we went to home stay. Take a bath, doing some lazy things. Then, went out again *dancing*
That time we went to catch up the sunset still by our bike *dancing, again*
But before we arrive at the sunset point, we transit to buy ice cream. I love those ice cream because there's a lot of flavor. There's so many ice cream corner there, and the SPG was so tempting us with her yell, "es krim nya mbak, sepuluh ribu aja.." .. *please go to google translate then :p
Sunset at Gili Trawangan, I was dream for perfect sunset, but unfortunately we didn't get it.
Too bad, the sunset covered by the cloud. After the sun goes down, we're looking for dinner.
We choose Trattoria cucina italiana for our dinner. Yes, for some of you the price still reasonable, but still for me was quite expensive.

the ice creamssss 

Eat ice cream with this view, any better than this?

The sunset point

silly us

my favorite wings ring from Frezia Fs and my bavette carbonara

from my instax mini..

And that night was over there. After having our dinner, we went to the home stay and slept.
In the early morning, I wake up because of my sister calling me and ask me to off to Lombok that early morning to avoid big wave. *WTF
I even still need more day! I still want to stay in Gili! I still not satisfied. Aaa, I want back to Gili right now! But we can't due to I still have the responsibilities of my job, we ended our sweetest escape in Gili Trawangan :(
With our reckless we went to Lombok by Senggigi route. As my family said, from Bangsal, you just go straight and followed the route until you find the traffic light turn left.
Want to know the beautiful of Senggigi beach? Here they are..

This is our return route to go to Lombok

Yes, beach along the way~

Arrived in Mataram, me, clara and my cousin went to some place called "Suranadi" to eat sate belayak.
Don't ask me made from what those satay, all I know about those satay was SUPER DELICIOUS.
And those are my favorite satay, ever.
Ok, this is will be my last bla bla bla, and spaming the picture.

Sate Belayak. For sure, the satay is cow.

Last photo is in ferry, on the sea to go back to Padang Bay.

Well that's my greatest vacation ever. Gili Trawangan giving me all sweetest memories. And my promise is, I'll be back there, with my husband-to-be :D
