Bali - 1st Day
Super Male Model - Quite good at posing ar?
Just came back from Bali!!! Boohoo!!! Since it was a 3 or 4 day affair, i would blog what we did each day in each entry coz i would probably start intensive studying from tomolo onwards so my entries will b boring. So to spice it up, I would tell you about my interesting trip!
Day 1 - Friday: Actually(common phrase justed too often by our travel guide in a slang form), it started in the early morning of about 7.30 8 o'clock as i entered the bathroom to have a bathe and brush my teeth to get ready on our 1st official day in Bali. Despite us arriving the previous day, we arrived at around 11 so its not considered a day. We had breakfast. My parents and sister had a packaged buffet breakfast while i had a delicious tender burger with some fresh warm fries at the side which i was craving the moment i stepped down on the grounds of Bali. My parents booked the 3-bed room coz it was cheaper thus i was sneaked in thus i didnt get a packeged buffet but i could if i wanted but they would have had to pay extra. Since it was a business trip, my sis and i did not enjoy the ordering of goods part which was estimately 70% of the trip. Only some parts of the ordering time we enjoyed a bit like on choosing of accesories and paintings(on the 2nd last and last day). On the 1st day they did some intensive shopping for i dunno what product cos half of the time i was in the car sleeping cos so boring with my sister. Towards lunchtime, we drove to Ubut where we had lunch. We had lunch at a place called 'dirty ducks restuarant'. It was named that because just when the place was about to be completed, a few ducks came to the padi field around the restuarant and then later they entered the restuarant with their dirty webbed feet. The ducks dirtied the whole place so they decided to call it dirty ducks restuarant. There I had a club sandwitch while my father, the driver and the guide had the famous nasi goreng, while my mom and sis had rice with a whole duck which has a name for it but i cant remember what it is. We continued with our journey to all the shops they needed to cover. At one of the shops named Kartini, i bought some furniture for my room cos i will be switching room with my sis so i will be having a bigger room. You must one day come and see it when it is done. I planned to buy an actual surfboard to put on the wall but we couldnt find any cheap ones. I am contamplating on having a graffiti wall with my name on it and stuff like that or not, but i have to see first. The day ended early as we returned to another hotel which was actually a resort to put our baggage down and check in. It was so beautiful. There were cows and river and all. Damn nice. Its called Arma Resort. Sounds like my maid's name. Freaky man. Luckily the resort is not as horrible as her. After that, we went to the heart of Ubut to shop some more. We returned around 9 or 10 o'clock and had a bathe then knocked out till the next day.
