Bali Story...ver 1


6.00 am,Malaysia
Bangun pagi. Beg dah siap packed malam tu. Bersubuh first. And then 6.30 my pickup(my sis bf) dah sampai.OMG..Awalnya. Plan nak gerak kul 7 jek.PAdahal x mandi gik ni. My sis cakap dia very particular about time soaku expect la muka masam mencuka di pagi hari.ruined my day? Fortunately not so far....Mmmm..Bakal adik ipar aku ladies and gentleman..Hahah

6.45 am, Malaysia
Left the house and onto LCCT. Sembang2 dalam keta while my sis membuta kat belakang. KEsian plak pagi2 cuti ni kena nganto. Although i didnt understand why he chose KLIA highway over lalu jalan salak selatan tu. Waste of toll money. Jauhnya sama jek. X kisahlah asalkan sampai on time.


7.45 am, LCCT

Nice ad to remind you to pre-booked your baggage online. :)

Sampai dah.Checkin the bag. Kesian kat traveller sebelah x pre-booked their luggage,kena bayar a total of over RM300-500 for their huge bags only. Dengan x paham bahasa inggerisnya. ADeh..Luggage lagi mahal dari ticket last minute ke bali. Ni mesti x fully informed coz booked through travel agent. Like my dad advise, sila ambil tau and jangan bagi alasan xtau...MMmmm.

8.00 am,LCCT's

Kat LCCT. Thanks to my sister, can still use her backpack.Really practical for travel.

KEna tunggu around an hour lagi for gate opening. SO grabbed breakfast kat McD. Lucky me i didn't yet redeem my complimentary burger voucher dapat time larian McD aritu so save la couple of bucks. But yet still so damn expensive. I don't know why so many people waste money having breakfast in McD with their so-so meal. Lepak2 ler ngan my friend and his friends. Pukul 9 gerak g departure hall. Time ni member dah macam cuwak takut lambat ke hape. I assured him no need to worry coz we're all on schedule. Boarding a bit late around 15 min and take off was late 30 min behind schedule. Still acceptable for me. Thanks for my prior experience, all boarding process went all smooth except that my friend had to go through the metal detector door couple of times because he forgot to took out his mp3 player..hahah.Stop complaining bro.. Your fault man. Just saying :P

10 am, AirAsia A320 Plane

Check out our plane. AirAsia Indonesia!!

Cuaca baik and take off was fine. Because we took AirAsia Indonesia, it was a preview of Indonesia. Their hospitality, their beauty(Indonesian mostly has a sweet smile and darker smooth skin that just made me melt) and their accent. Love it.


Nasi Lemak yang x seberape sedap tapi mahal.

Got our pre-booked meal. Mine has a drink and my friend's didnt come with.Lucky he bought mineral water kat airport which cost him RM3. Same price but bigger bottle if buy on the ground.Lucky break i advised him to buy before we boarded the plane. I ate Nasi Lemak Pak NAsir(lauk x sedap mana tapi nasi dia sedap) and my friend ate a huge hotdog. Smelly pickles though. Yuck! The flight was all smooth with very minimal turbulance in a duration of 3 hours. Couldn't sleep so i was just listening to mp3 and read a novel the whole entire flight. Saw awesome view of beautiful island on the way. Maybe Lombok.

Bali( Nusa Dua) from air minutes before touchdown



1.15 p.m. , Bali Airport

Bali Airport just next to the ocean.

Touchdown!!!! From feeling restless the night before to excited in here. Great to see an airport beside a sea. A hotel porter greeted us on our arrival and brought us to the hotel which about 20 mins away. On the way, saw a lot of Bali unique architecture and awesome monuments. Already loving my time in Bali.


Awesome architecture in Bali Airport.

Some random art monument near the airport.

2.00 Hotel in Nusa Dua

Melepak half an hour kat lobi sementara tunggu bilik ready.

The hotel was great. The pools were awesome. The staffs were friendly. The ambiance was quiet and windy. They were playing Bali gamelan music all over the hotel so it felt soothing. X macam hotel2 Malaysia yang plays music2 piano kat hotel.To me tadak identiti. Hence, our hotel just perfect for a 4 star hotel. Checked in half an hour late coz bilik x ready lagi.To add another bad points, the room was a bit crampy with a silly-small window(although came with a great view and a peek at neighbor's bathroom window,hahah).


The room so small they even had to merge the twin beds. HAhah


Look how small the window was.Couldn't even open.

Thank God the bathroom was okay.


Lupa nak add that the hotel was located on top of a hill in NUsa Dua so the view was aaawwee---meyyh--zeeeng!!Could see two volcano mountains, the great sea of Bali in Nusa Dusa and the forestry that neighbored the hill.See the pics yourself to believe it. Unfortunately, i would expect we were in Indonesia, at least a kiblat sign would be there. Unfortunately, there wasn't. So tawakal je and took my friend advise to look for the sun. Being the room was small, nak solat pon payah dengan sejadah pon lupa bawak. But all went well. Ikut kita nak or taknak solat jek which compared to my experience in Krabi. Guilty as charged!! Aku x solat selama 4 hari 3 malam sebab xtau kiblat kat sana. Huhu.

3.00- Hotel
Time ni dapat tau yang our hotel is quite far from everything. Normallah tu. You gain some(solitude and great view), you lose some (city life, beachfront and walking distance shops). However i wouldn't trade the experience with any other hotels in there. So kena tunggu hotel's van g Kuta around kul 6 for roaming the city. Sementara tgh tunggu tu and hujan pon dah berhenti, took a quick dip in the pool kat rooftop. Very nice. Mmg the best pool i've been to coz of the view.

The hotel's ground floor swimming pool.

The rooftop infinity pool even better. Check out the view!!


After several minutes of swimming, perut dah melapor. Thought couldnt wait for the hotel pickup anymore coz so damn hungry hence decided to rent a bike. IDR80000 per day or about RM30 per day. Not so bad considering cabfare to the hotel from Kuta pon dah 80000 rupiah gak. So off we went naik motor jenama Honda Vario..





BEst sangat motor ni. Economical and smooth. The same cannot be said about Bali's traffic though. CHAOTIC!!!Even traffic jam kat MAlaysia is nothing to compare with the chaos in Bali's traffic. All sorts of transportation cramped the one lane street. Can you imagine? Motor, bus, pajero, lori, keta, taxi,basikal..Even trolley shop jual bakso pon nak nyempit sama...Hahah


Panjang plak post nih...nanti aku sambung version lain plak beserta gambar..

Gambar Bali ver 1 ( Taken with my Nokia cell)

Ini just gambor-gambor aku archived. All were taken with my Cokia cell. Galaxy S x bawak takut kena sambar or rosak. Huhuh.

Lawa lak syot aku amek kat hotel. The pool was so damn huge.

Motor yang banyak berjasa membawa kami keliling Bali.




On the first day, sewa motor for about 80,000 IDR per day. Hujan that's why basah baju tu. Terus g KFC had our lunch since lapar gilos.











The hotel's infinity pool around noon on the first day. Check out my muffin top! Hahah. But the view from the rooftop pool was amazing!






The pool's hotel at snrise. Around kul 5.45 ni.(tapi kat Bali dah mcm kul 6.45)

Play around kat dalam kedai oleh2. Loved this hat but forgot to buy. T_T

A bit of Kuta town.

Balik Sudah Dari Bali

Another day,another post. Balik sudah. Enjoy gile gue di BAli. For details,aku cite la in the future post coz skg lack of pictures since my friend still hasnt transferred the pic. Memang meletihkan. So i took a day off today and slept almost an entire day.dunno why but while i was there i woke up every morning at 5-6 am without any help from the alarm.maybe dah terbiasa bgun subuh n g keje mcm kat malaysia but that didnt explain how i able to adapt with 1hr diff(sunwise not timewise) in Bali. Because of that,i took a lot of sunrise pic from the rooftop of my hotel after did my prayer every morning.i tell u sunrise is much more mesmerizing scene compared to sunset.maybe because i am a morning guy that's why i feel that way.heheh.ok lah.chek these few pics i took with my cell.

Dating di Hujung Minggu

Another new day, another post.

Olo!!!( tiru gaya Megamind)..

Baru je balik dating ni. Believe it or not x kemas barang lagi walaupon my flight gonna be in less than 11 hours. And sungguh x sedap hati nak pergi. Do you remember the feeling you get before you're leaving your house to your hostel after a long break kat rumah. Macam itu lah aku rasa sekarang. Very weird coz slalunya kalo nak g holiday terlampau excited sampai malam nak tido pon x boleh. Hahah. Enough about that. Saje posting ni nak buat after balik dating.

BAsically nothing much we did. Just g area BB and hang out watching a movie. Cite Megamind. Cite not bad. Kinda reminded me of Despicable Me. And then lepak2 jalan soping. Nothing we bought. Jst sembang2. Baru aku perasan Times Square dah jadi mcm BB lak jual baju/ barang China byk. Low class gak walaupon bangunan megah giler.After that lepak makan kat Nasi Ayam Cheng Meng. Marvelous! A bit pricey la for a Nasi Ayam. After that balik. Basically just a brief date coz saje nak melepas rindu sebelum g Bali. Kang terlepas rindu kat awek Bali kang naya plak..Hahah. Kidding only sayang :P

Tapi saja nak citer ak ade jalan-jalan kat Lowyat sat. Ternampaklah my kind of Galaxy S kat kedai jual. Oh My God!! Original price for Galaxy S rupanya Rm2600?! @_@ Terbeliak mata aku. Kira memang aku beli aritu rezeki aku ckp baik. Saje nak share. Heheh. Oklah...Off to Bali. Nak ngemas barang. Awek dah marah dah aku x kemas barang gik.Bye22---

Current mood: X sedap hati *_*

My Galaxy S

Another night, another post!

I think this post is long overdue already. Yelah. I bought my Galaxy S about a month ago. I guess it's appropriate now that i have been using it for almost a month, a review should be in order. Even though i am so damn in love with my new cellphone, i try not to be bias as possible in the name of a fair review.

Sebelum tu let me tell you what was my initial plan. At first, a month ago the nation tengah hot ngan IPhone4. Maxis and Digi store masing2 kena serbu orang tuk dapatkan stok IPhone. Being a hip kinda guy i was(hehe), aku pon sama terpaut hati kat Iphone. Instantly terus lupa pasal hajat nak beli motor. Ahaks.

Then g lah One Utama. Time tu i just got my CIMB credit card. Hajat g One Utama pasal nak apply for HSBC CC. Dah done antar tu jalan ler kat OU ni ngan member. Singgah jap kedai Digi. Played with the IPhone 4. Tapi first impression,mak aih..Keciknya. X best ler kalo gini. Other than that, awesome phone nonetheless.Then to further worsen my first experience ngan IPhone, seller Digi kat situ sombong bebenar. Taulah korg tgh hot tapi apa salahnya layan pelanggan. I'm a serious buyer lor.Korang layan kaum sejenis korang jek..Huh.. WHATEVER! Dah makin luntur hajat nak beli IPhone.

Tengah jalan2 tu terjumpa la Maxis tengah wat roadshow booth kat ruang legar. Tengok ade promosi Blackberry and Samsung Galaxy. Aku kurang berkenan ngan BB ni coz butangya yang kecik tu. So survey ler Galaxy ni. Impressed the first time i saw it. Size-wise, just perfect. Screen, super clear, Tochscreen very responsive. Looked at the price, even more impress. Got over RM1+++ discount. Basically more than half the price.Got free gift some more. Boleh free speaker Samsung and rebate bill data for RM10 plus boleh spin wheel of rebate fortune. Heheh.

Tapi x beli walaupon dah berkenan. Kena read the review dulu kat umah walaupon kat otak dah terbayang2 dah kat Galaxy S.Tengok review, antara point to emphasize:







Storage: 16 g pls up to 32 G SD external storage(whopping 48 compared to unremovable storage of Iphone)

Battery: Removable batery that so far can last over a day with (decent sms+talk)+(24 hour 3G)_ once in a while (WiFi+ GPS). Not bad and no issue coz leh recharge anytime,anywhere now.

Screen: 4 Inch! Very thin with high-def Super Amoled screen. LED so gotta be good. Basically the same technology they use in LCD tv.

Camera: 5 MP. However got no flash. Bummer. Got secondary camera for video phone though.

Weight/ Size: Light because of sing plastic-like material therefore lack the premium look that IPhone truly holds. Size just perfect for my hand although expect tangan a bit cramp kalo bergayut ngan awek over half an hour. Hahah.

Multimedia: Flash ready.Other thing on the par with IPhone 4.

OS : Android 2.1. BEst!!!

Ok. I couldn't help but be biased with the review because i am truly and deeply in love with my cellphone. Heheh. Even people around me agreed. Just for a low price of RM 930( From RRP RM 2400 plus I got durian runtuh with RM160 phone price rebate) and 2 year data plan contract(bummer) for RM 128 per month( 3G data+ kredit), i couldn't be more happy. Even more, me and my GF now the official android couple :)

OK lah. Nak tido dlu. Current mood: tdo nak peluk my Galaxy S. Boleh? Heheh.

Kalau Kekasih Hati Kerja Di Tempat Yang Sama

Another story, another post..

Saje nak wat observation kat sini. Not in a million years would i imagine found my other half in the office. Maybe for the fact most of my officemate are Indian be it in Profitera KD, IMU or Scope. In fact, my sister and her boyfriend last year were working together at the same place. I keep saying to her, how would that work? I assumed they must had share their lunch together and carpooled together to work. An yes they did. Finally they gone separate ways, career-wise of course. She stays there while the guy works as gov. PTD now.

However a different story in my case. Better keep that to myself. Another COLD case i'm not willing to share in here. Huhu. But here is a hint. I emphasize a word up there. I think that sums the whole thing up. :P

Current mood: So damn COLD morning. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr..........
