The destination place was Bali and we traveled there by land. We were using train to travel from Bandung to Surabaya. And I wonder why on earth should we pay for that train? Wasn’t there a song like this,
“...ke Bandung, Surabaya~
Bolehlah naik dengan PERCUMA!”
PERCUMA it said. FREE! Then it should be a NON-FEE travel! /slapped
Nah, I was kidding :p
We gathered on the station around 5 or 6 pm and the train departure from Bandung was at 8 pm. I brought a red suitcase along with me and my old school bag that could fit lot of things in it. I was in the third wagon along with my class XI Science 4 or I prefer to address it as KEPARAT—the class’s name. I sat beside Afifah and with Lovanda and Triana on the seat in front of us. It wasn’t my first time traveling with a train but, the last time I did is around 5 years ago, but indeed it’s the first time I traveled without my parents.
I don’t know whether it’s the trip or my position or whatever, I could barely fell asleep. I wasn’t even sure whether I managed to really fall sleep or not with my earphones on—I don’t mind the songs though, I actually like it. So, I knew what’s going on around me and there’s just one time when I fully regained my consciousness I realized that everyone has already fell to a deep sleep. So, around 2 am I thought to myself that I can’t sleep (or trying to do it) anymore and checked my line messages. Some of my friends from my Japanese Club invited me to go travels from one wagon to another to take photos of the other members sleeping face. I agreed and for an hour or more I spends my time with Lathifah and Miclyra by walking around (we got questioned and warned several time by some of the train’s staffs, it was awkward and it scares me a bit).
But, it was worth it! We could use those photos for blackmail if we need it at times, umfufufu~ /kicked
And while in the train I couldn’t say that the food is satisfying, but the dinner was rather good (or was it because I was too hungry to even think about the taste?). But the breakfast, I really can’t stand it, it’s around 5 in the morning and the menu is... I just managed to gobbled down (maybe) even less than a half of it.
Finally we
arrived on Surabaya around 9 am. We got into the bus and while on the way to Bromo
Asri restaurant, all I could think about was just ‘toilet’ and ‘food’. I’m so
dead hungry and I need a toilet quickly ._. Short after, the bus arrived and I
was running to the bathroom to take care all of my needs before having a lunch,
finally, something I can eat.
Then we continued our ride to Ketapang’s Harbor—but before that, we stopped at Grafika Restaurant before dinner. It’s already dark when we get into the ship. And I spends my time on the ship with my fellow friends from Japanese Club and talked all crazy in a loud voice, it’s kind of embarassing but it’s also a lot of fun :) Finally, we arrived at Gilimanuk Harbor, Bali. And continued our trip to Nirmala Hotel.
We arrived around 2 am and quickly get into room 303. I’m so dead tired, I feel like I could fell asleep in any minute, but I have to take a bath, no matter what. And then, along with my roomates, Lovanda, Nadira, and Ellania, we orderd Mc Donald delivery, finally, something my stomach could accept. There’re two beds in the room and I slept with Lovanda next to me.
On the first day in Bali, it’s real hot when I got into the bus, and what made it worse is that the air conditioner in my bus didn’t work. My class, KEPARAT got separated and moved to different buses and I, Nadira, and Ella ended up in Bus 7, it’s was embarassing to get on that bus for several reasons. But the short trip to Tanjung Benoa got rather enjoyable along with a nice accompany near me, and it turned out it wasn’t that embarassing and awkward.
In Tanjung Benoa, I went to Penyu Island with my Japanese Club friends and spends the rest of time in the beach with them. And another bad luck striked to me, my sandal got broken and I have to buy a new pair. I ended up finding the only cheapest, nice sandal that costs Rp. 30.000,- it’s was so expensive for that kind of sandal! Oh, what the hell?! But I really need it so there’s no other choice, so, fine. And then, before we went to Puja Mandala, we were having a lunch on the beach and I already changed into my TURBUD shirt. I love that shirt, it’s nice and the blue colour is good.
Puja Mandala is a place where all of the house of worship of five religion were located in one place. I went to the mosque and took a prayer. Then, we went to GWK, it’s so hot there. There’s also a game from the commitee, we have to find either blue or yellow clues, six of them. I’m sure there’s no way winning it and just let the game went on, but in the end my class did win it. I was happy and surprised when it got announced. We also took some photos, as 32015 and me with KEPARAT and also with my Japanese Club along with our dear teacher who’s responsible for the Club, Mrs. Ima Riaty—who’s also my class guardian.
It was getting dark when we get into the amphitheater to see Kecak Dance. Actually I don’t really understand what is that and just took some photos and enjoyed myself by seeing the shadows of the dancer, it’s kind of awesome—I know, I got focused on a wrong thing.
After that, we went to Jimbaran Bay. The seafood was really nice, finally, real food. But shame on me I can’t really enjoyed it due to several things. And the (supposedly) dinner event turned out merrier than I had thought, it’s nice. And I managed to get a precious photo along way :3
After that
we want back to hotel it’s really late, I took a bath and went to sleep.
The second day in Bali, I woke up with this damn... throat sore!!! Oh God why?! That’s the last thing I ever wanted in my trip! And what worried me more is the possibility of it turning into a cold. No, no, NO! But I have to enjoy my trip anyway, somehow. We went to Desa Adat Panglipuran, the village was so nice and the building lined up neatly, it’s nice to see.
Then, we went to Kintamani Restaurant. KEPARAT took photos there. The food was really delicious! One I could enjoy despite of the throat sore! I ate a lot of food.
After that, we went to Sukowati. I didn’t buy anything. I just use that occasion to walked around since I’ve been sitting too much while in the bus. We went back to the Hotel and prepared for “MAKRAB” and while I’m at it, I also packed up my things. The theme was beach party so we should wear clothes which related to that. I wore a brown themed dress, the dress has kind of flower patterns so, I think it’ll be enought for a beachy outfit. I sat on the back of the ballroom along with my Japanese Club guys the whole night. The Award of Nomination was announced and we also watched our 32015 video. The event ended around midnight and there’s an after party, but this throat sore of mine that’s turning into a flu had gotten worse and I decide to go back to my room—it’s not like I’ll join the after party either way.
And here comes the last day in Bali! We went to Pandawa Beach, and on the way there’s an accident happened, I don’t really want to talk about it, it’s shocking and I hope the person involved will stay safe and healthy—and again we were moved to another bus. Oh God why... Okay, back to the Pandawa Beach, it was really hot... There’s ‘Dewa Athena: Beach Edition’ the guys from KEPARAT played in tug of war and came out as the winner! Yay! I also took some photos. After that, we went to Krisna to eat lunch and buy some souvenirs. We didn’t managed to go to Kuta Beach because of the plane schedule, but oh it’s fine for me.
We went to the Ngurah Rai International Airport. All I want to do on the plane was sleep, sleep, and sleep. But I got worried along the way because of the bad weather that made the plane keep shaking and all I could think was, “Will I die here? God, please don’t. I still wants to live. I’ll be a good girl so please, protect me.” Something like that. It wasn’t my first trip by plane, but it’s the first time I got into this kind of situation. And what made it worse was the ruckus surrounded me, it’s actually in a good way, but at that kind of situation it just makes me want to smacked them up to shut them—but I didn’t and won’t do it anyway, and focused on how to fall asleep, which I managed in the end.
But in the end, Thanks God! We, all of the 32015 and the teachers and staffs arrived safely and I managed to have a nice sleep while we’re up there~
So far, it’s a great trip! Lot of things happened and I simply won’t forget it whatever it was :’ And it’ll be great thing if there’s another trip and I hope there’ll be no accidents and that I won’t get into a bad condition so I can enjoy it to the fullest~!
That’s all.
