End Year trip to Bali - 2011
I was finally went on a trip and again, it was alone...
but as usual along the way I always meeting with so many interesting and amazing people...
I was suppose to have more time with a friend, because when I planned this trip. My friend has confirmed to me that she would take the advance open water course in Bali, together with me. But yet, she canceled it in the last minute.
But its still fine for me, as I have so much time enjoying myself between the nature and people surrounding me.
So here some stories that I could hardly remember from my trip.
I touched down Denpasar on the 20th of December.when arrived the weather was so nice, even though we had some small turbulence on the landing. but everything change suddenly when the airplane touch the ground.
it was hot sunny day in Bali.
so I walk outside the airport, the airport seems to be totally different now. the last time I went there was in March. Now they renovate the airport building to be a better international airport *hopefully*.
I was kinda confuse for a moment, I dont understand between amaze and dissapointment.
because it gave me a long walk to get away from the busyness of the airport.
after I get to outside, I was sweating all over my body. and fortunately I found blue bird taxi right out side the airport. so jumped in the taxi, and it took me to Niko hotel in Nusa Dua.
I stayed with my sister and her family in Niko Hotel in Nusa Dua for 2 days. it was fun.
I took some pictures of my little nephew and niece there. it was a really nice hotel.
after 2 days having a luxurious life, the day has come to explore more in to Bali.
I went out to have my Advanced Open Water license with Bali Breizh.
My instructure is a French guy, and his name is Guy (read Gi). He is a BIG guy.
so we went with another guy, he is also a French guy, I couldnt even remember his name, because he couldnt speak english or bahasa. so its really difficult to have a conversation with him.
during the trip, I felt totally like an alien. because they both speak the language I dont understand, and I must be comes from other planet who dont understand what they were talking about. so 2 against 1, I was in a total lost. haha...
I was a bit dissapointed because, my plan for the AOW class would be: drift dive, night dive, navigation, deep dive, and photography.
but it ended up with: fish identification (which is so not important), wreck dive, night dive, deep dive and navigation. so I missed important course such as photography.
Guy was not even offer me to choose my course... *sad*
but well, it was still ok.
Day 1, Tulamben
The first dive went GOOD, with total bottom time for 59 minutes, deepest on 19m. it was cool.. because there were so much life there.
The second dive was AMAZING, we went on the wrecked ship, and I get the chance to get inside it. it was an amazing experienced I ever had in my life.the wrecked was so full of life !!!
I get the chance to swim with a group of Jack fishes, there were like thousands of them, or maybe hundreds I am nut sure, but I believe there were a lot of them by that time.
the total bottom time was 42 minutes, with deep 23 m.
it was AMAZING,
I will continue again later on... I need to get ready now to leave the house with my guest.

my host experienced
ok so... my friend told me I am being an angel to my guest.
I cant help it, its just me.
I am always trying my best to makes people around me feel comfortable.
so thats what I do... I think I can make it good in hospitality business.
so I was a host for a few days last week to someone whom I know from my Bali trip.
We had such a good time in Bali together with other Couchsurfer.
I let him stayed at my home in consideration that I already know him in Bali, and that I understand that he wont do any harm to me or my family, because I know he is basically a good person.
God... I cant do this.. I cant write it down my dissapointment. this is just not me, I cant complain.
because I made this situation.
ok I have to write it down. I am so dissapointed.
it seems like he doesnt enjoy his time with me, which i dont care.
i try my best to help him in anyway because i realise he is a stranger in a strange city.
i know how he feel, when you lost and need some help.
so helped him bought his ticket, for his next destination after Jakarta.
with a lot of effort, time and money consumed, not to mention the difficulties because of the rain and the traffic jammed in Jakarta.
anyway.... in the end he finally bought his ticket.
well actually, I guess I am fine with that. I mean I dont care anymore whether he wants to use the ticket that we bought with a lot of effort. its his call anyway. its just sucks for me !!
then again, there was this party in one of the couchsurfer's apartment in the central of Jakarta.
I tag him along with me to the party. he had fun, I had fun, we had our own way to satisfied our self at the party.
then he seems like he doing good at the party, and he enjoyed it so much. so i let him stayed there for the night.
ok before that happened, we went through alot of things before getting to the party.
we went to the wrong apartment building, waited too long for the elevator.
after we get to the right building, it turns up the tower is on the other side.
so we had to walk far to the right tower.
sadly, I had to park my bike too far :(
then it was almost 2 oclock in the morning, I felt tired and need to go home, since I found out he still enjoy the party so much, so I let him stay there.
but I was dissapointed, yet he knows that I parked my bike so far, and I will be walking alone and driving alone home. he didnt even care and didnt even bother to offer his companion to the parking lot or even text me a message saying drive safely or let me know when u get home safely.
well I dont expect too much, but that what would a gentlemen do right?
even though we dont have such a relationship. even all my friends not only guys, they will be worried. I am a girl walking far to the parking lot, and driving alone at 2 am in Jakarta from central to south.
who wouldnt be worried???
I was scared a bit, I was so pissed to him of his carelessness.
I dont blame him, but I was so dissapointed with him.
thank God, there was Chucky and Juan Carlos willing to give me a company to the parking lot.
Thank you Chucky & Juan !!!
from then, in the morning, he finally send me a text asking how am i doing, and he will be looking forward to come back home and have a good rest.
then suddenly I found a news that the road to his next destination has been shut due to some flooding.
I was trying my best to keep him up to date about the situation. several phone calls, several text message. no reply from him. and afterwards there was this short text messages telling that he changed his plan, that he would stay a little bit longer at the apartment and he would come to my place to get his things.
so I answered OK and asked him to letting me know when he would take his things, because I got something else to do, and wont be able to meet him around.
so then, another text message came, he asked me whether I want to join him for a karaoke with the others, I told him I cant.
then he said, he really want to see me again before he is leaving, and he would do anything to do that.
then I said OK, I named the place and time, he said he tried. and suddenly he changed again.
aargghh this guy really sucks !!!
but finally he was coming to my house, and we meet up each other there, and he brought my friend too to accompany him.
he is always looking for some caring and babysit wherever he goes.
such a cry baby !!!
i am sick and tired of being an angel all the time. I know its just me, I just need to give some space for myself.
*sigh* *deepbreath*
i am cool now....
and now I just dont need more shit going on today !!!
Blown me away Monday !!!
