Om Swasti Astu

Bites Tale : I'm gaining more weight from all these trips! :) But i'm happy!

Om Swasti Astu!!

This is "Salam Jumpa" i.e. "Hi" in Balinese.

Bali is really a beautiful place.

And i am missing Bali now....

Didn't manage to visit all the places of interest... and we only passed by Ubud... didn't visit that place due to heavy rain.. must find another time to go back..

Will be blogging like usual soon...

Om Canti Canti Canti Om = "Salam Pisah" i.e. "Bye" for now...

Star Cruise Gemini

Bites Tale : At last..... Krispy Kreme Donuts... Here i come!!!

I’ll be off for holiday to Bali tomorrow, will stop by KL for a few days. (Yes, been travelling a lot this month! And yes, the MAIN reason i choose Bali as my holiday destination is that i can find Krispy Kreme Donuts there... hehehehe!!!). The other reason, I am bringing my parents there because mum has always wanted to visit Bali since she was young... she said there is this song which describe how beautiful Bali is during her school days... So, it’s a “win-win” situation for me lah!

Meanwhile, please “savour” these photos from the Star Cruise Gemini trip i went with my parents and sis end of February. (These are only part of the many photos we’ve taken!)

And, this is how the room looks like:

Pic : Shower













Pic : Wardrobe













Pic : There are 3 wardrobes in a room... enough for everyone

I have heard people saying that it’s boring to be “trapped” in the ship for a week. My answer to that – “They are wrong”. We were only “trapped” in the ship at night!! Meaning, we are allowed to go out at each destination the ship docks in the morning, (in this case – Penang, Krabi, Phuket and Langkawi) only to come back before the ship departs to another destination. They gave us ample time for visiting every destination.

For those who choose to stay in the ship, there’re a handful of programmes arranged by the crew like movie, games, fun fair etc..... or you can fully utilise the gym, jacuzzi and the pool... you just can’t complaint! Talking bout the crew.... they did a great job! I missed them very much.... especially “The Shy Guy”... and “The Cruise Director”... They are so cute! (will tell you more.... just be patient!}

I really must say that it’s totally worth it to board onto any cruise trip once in a life... it’s a really great experience and if you are thinking of a relaxing trip like me, a cruise trip would definitely be a great choice.

The cost? About RM 2300+ per person, if you choose room with window; and about RM1700+ per person, if you choose room with smaller porthole window...... and that includes meals, depending how much you can eat... they serve breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner. And the food is simply yummilicious! (Ooh.... i missed the pork ham! umm... ya... they served pork in the ship!)

Have to go now... need to meet up with some people to settle some matters before i’m off for a week.. forgive me if i didn’t reply your message.. i’ll catch up with you when i’m back! That’s a promise!

I'm going on a vacation!

Bites Tale : I'm sure this trip will be a relaxing and an enjoyable one... I know i still haven't finish blogging about my december trip... i stopped at the 2nd place we visited... will continue to blog about it when i'm back!
Some of you might be wondering what's happening to me... seems like i've been neglecting blogging every now and then especially since mid Dec 2007... And some might be also wondering what "change" i was saying in one of my previous entry... and why suddenly i went MIA. The fact is, i have quit my current job and this explains why i was loaded with work as i was trying to clear as much work as i could before my last day at work...
It's been 2 years that i hesitate whether i should quit my job and the accident in Dec 2007 made me realised that life is too short to hesitate... of course, there's a mixed feeling when i submitted my resignation... but i guess it's normal. And there's no turning back now...
Although i'll be earning much lesser than what i'm earning in my previous job... and that it will be tougher.. as there is a big difference in my future portfolio but i do look forward to the challenges and the new things i will be able to learn.
And now, my priority in life is Family, i wish i could be a good daughter, a good sister, a good wife and a good mother. (No, this statement does not mean i'm getting married any sooner... ^_^).
I'm still waiting for my new computer to arrive, and i'm going on vacation with my parents and sis. This is one of the vacation i look forward to go to... reason being... i'm using this vacation to get myself fully rested and recharged for my next portfolio.
We are boarding Star Cruise Gemini next week...
KL...
Penang...
Krabi...
Phuket...
Langkawi...
Here we come!
See you in another 1 week +!
