Flight from dps to Lombok by merpati cost around 700rb return. From mataram take ojek or taxi to bangsal which cost around 80rb by taxi . Cross to gili with boat which should cost around 10 - 20 rb. Charter boat cost around 150rb if u can't make It to bangsal on time .. Make sure u Get to bangsal in the morning till the latest 3pm. Stay in gili air for more friendly and quiet place .. Gili trawangan more for party. On the way back, buy shuttle which cost 75 which include boat to bangsal and shuttle bus to senggigi.

Day 3
I spent the time in senggigi area..stayed at puri bunga hotel..it was a great location but te hotel is pretty old ..and old design ..walked around sengggigi was good to relax ..But it was like Kuta where heaps of people tried to sell souveniers ..yhy were friendly tho. Bought pearl or mum for 50rb and gelang for 5rb. I went for fishing with charter boat for 200rb for 2 hours . Also i had lunch at office restaurant and ate ayam plecing ..so good ...
Once again people are nice but prob coz I paid them alot.

Day 4 just went to mataram and had oxtail soup at jl. Subak III no 21.. Good food .. I took ojek from senggigi to mataram and airport .paid him 100rb which I should have paid for only 60rb..he was so happy :) . Went to one of the pura in mataram .. Forgot the name tho...but I was kinda get riped off .paid donation for 20rb and guide for 70rb ..oh well may God bless me :) .

close to an end

Hi..

Well, things isnt always going well right?? same with my business in Bali .. I was so excited about bandung and bali for MECA..but aye, it s not always as we planned..

It s hard to keeping it all together and specially having parthnership with someone far away and busy ... .

So finally, we decide to stop the partnership with MECA.. i am out of the business..

I dont know what to do after .. but, i believe that the best for me.. I am not sure about the progress together with my partner on this business.. and i lost trust on him..

Anyway, i think i will take this as a learning experience from me.. I have no regret tho.. I have learned from goods and bads. So the next time i am involve in this kinda situation, i will be able to sort it out easy ..

Looking back, it was actually the answer from my pray to Gods. Thats what make me so sure about it.. And i believe Gods plan something more awesome for me.

Thanks God.

New Years Resolution 2010

Whats the plan for 2010???

1. I want MECA Bandung to Open and fully run as a education agent, cafe and english course and of course in the same time MECA bali also will run smoothly also

2. SOka Indah will grow better and better....!!! - I love SOKA

3. I wanna do a trip somewhere in South East Asia for a month .. traveling cheap and using couchsurfing experience as much as i can...From that, i wanna make a travellers book..!!! - I am looking at the time around August i think..!!

Bright it on 2010.. Work Hard and play hard..

I actually just read a status from my friend fb saying that " every experience in life is a lesson, but love and care will always be the power to exist and survive"

It s kinda remind me , that all i need to keep me going in this tough world is LOVE and Cares !!! those are something that i dont have in my hearth. I need to cares and finding love to people around me..!!! My hearth is tough like stone- some poeple said..!! haha..- need to change it..

Have a great new year in 2010 guys..!!!

New Year 2010

I like to keeping this as a habit for myself, to write down what i have done and achieve in a year .. So then i can reflect on myself , evaluate and thinking ahead of the future..

I had to say 2009 has been a great year to me .. IT s always ups and down as a nature of life.. BUt i am surely grateful and thankful to God for what i have received and done. So, here we go the summary of a whole year of 2009:

JANUARY

This month was just a normal busy month for soka.. IT s great to see the business get busy and making a good money..:) ..

MARCH

The whole month of march was just getting ready to get MECA open .. Preparing all the equiptment and spending money to open the business.. Great feeling tho.. !!!

APRIL

MECA bali is officially open. I was preparing the office to be open with help of bu Pamela in chosing furnitures and equiptment. Surely it was a great feeling to finally open the door of my own office. Everyday was really exciting for me for this month.. I learned alot in migration and education law in Australia through MECA. It wasnt easy, specially having a joint business together - not like what i used to do in SOka...But i enjoyed it. I was helped by LIVY - bu tati's daugther that worked as my secretary to get the office running.. thanks for livy. She stayed in MECA BALi for 6 months since opening.

MAY

It was my birthday this month.. Didnt do much...not even with je ephie family because they were fighting ..haha..oh well, next year .. i d rather to spend it with my staff in soka i guess or my closes friends.. !!!

AUGUST

I went to Thailand with JE ephie family. IT was great.. Thailand is awesome. I met a few frinds overthere and making a new friends also. I love Thailand and i think i really wanna go back to Thailand again in the near future.
Dao has been great to show me around Bangkok..Tasting a great food and good nite out in Bangkok..awesome place !!! recommended to visit for everyone..

I was actually planning to make a book from my journey to thailand together with teteh yudia.. but, it never happen.. - we were just to lazy to do..haha.. oh well, next time i am off to thailand..def up for making it as a book . - hey, why not doing it as a new year;s resolution for 2010 to make a book and to travel thailand..!!!

SEPTEMBER

It s my mum birthday on 14 of September. Me and my sister went back home to gombong to celebrate my mum birthday.. IT was great to be there with her for her birthday... I have never had much experience to spend her birthday with her for the last 7 years.

OCTOBER

A moment when i got discovered by someone..damn... shy, guilty but kinda relief.. oh well, live goes on.. !!1

NOVEMBER

Me and my brother decided to start look after the business in Gombong. Well, we start to plan to come home once a month to held a meeting with our staff. It s good to see my brother get so passionate in the business.. It s keeping me motivated although everytime we went back home, dad was always giving us " ceramah" all day a long. The first time we went home, we didnt do much work toward the business actually, because my dad was just talking so much and didnt let us go away from him..hahaha..gosh, - just taking his words i guess..

DECEMBER

IT s been a busy month for SOKA.. it was great .. I am so happy for the busy time in Soka..This months is been pretty exciting also because I have a good friend that care and supporting me always. Spending new years and x mas together with friends was always great.. and a mmoment to remember.. !!!

man landed on the moon

a man just landed on the moon..and discover the other side of the moon which we have never seen it before... As we always know, everytime we looking at to the moon from the earth..WE always seeing the same surface everytime..no matter where we are, no matter what time we look at the moon..it s always the same..

But, not Yesterday,..someone just discover the other side of it.. The otherside, that no body ever seen.. People might have been thinking and suspicious about it..But aye, never had a chance to prove it..

Out of the blue, this one guy...that just discover all ... nothing left..!! the mystery of it has been reveal...

I dont know if we should be happy or worried.. Coz i am sure, it will have an impact to various different things in my life.. IT will never be the same.. although promises that he wont reveal any secret of the moon to anyone ..no one !!!

This can be the end of the game or open up to another game of life...
