My First Overseas Trip

I just had to blog about my trip to Bali. It was definitely an adventure for me because it was my first trip to another country without my parents and 100% self sponsored!! It is just amazing how God has been fulfilling my wish list. In my wish list traveling was indeed one of it. Anyway something about Bali that I can’t just describe.

From the second I landed, I was just surrounded with the touch of its wind that got me all so in love. Something is just magical and romantic about that place. Even if you are not a traveler, I would suggest you to visit this place with your other half. The ocean is so blue with its crystal clear water are just one of those things one should not miss about.

The best out of my trip I must say will be the Sunset in Tanah Lot. It’s just absolutely breathtaking. Words are just not enough to express what I felt when I was there.

As they say, pictures speak a thousand words and below are just a few shots of me when I was in Bali with my good friend Anu. Hope you are planning your trip after having a glimpse of the pictures below because I know I’m already planning one trip there again somewhere end of next year. I just hope the next time I’ll be there with someone I call my “LOVE”.

COMPACT EXPERIENCE

Hello there! The last two weeks I must say has been all interesting, exciting and new for me. Among the things that I’ve been passing by are as follows:

a) Managed to say THANK YOU to the soul who came up to me saying, “Hey girl, your mum asked me to find you a guy”, only later to be slammed right on my face with a “Can’t you find a guy on your own!!?” From this I learnt never to say THANK YOU to this question in the future. A sister in Christ gave me a valuable lesson as well. She told me to answer the question with a “Please don’t look for me a guy BUT just please pray for me!” I thought this was reasonable enough and I think I will do it!!!

b) Been saving a lot by travelling by bus to work every morning. Forgotten how cute the bus drivers were. Memories go back way back when I was in college and used to take the bus to classes. No doubt that my mother will have my head off for drooling over a bus driver but HEY they are cute and I am just drooling.. Not that I’m going up to them and saying “Ti Amor”!. I’m just admiring and drooling from a distance. If anyone to be blamed here I’d blame God for creating bus drivers who are damn cute!! Ha ha

c) Came back from a great holiday from Bali and still can smell the fresh air and crystal clear ocean! Must find time to blog about that with pictures!!!

d) I managed to watch “The Proposal” with Jenny akka and “The Ugly Truth” all by myself – both movies in two consecutive days and still good about it. Probably I’m feeling good because I still have the money to run my days ha ha ha. But “The Ugly Truth” made me observe a couple in the 50s. I was busy munching on Pop Corn while they were munching on Green Apple. Sooooooooooo Healthy!!! Gosh that was a reality slap on my face to diet! But overall they were so cute together. Hrmm don’t worry I did not spy on the oldies. I did watch the movie entirely! This is just in case some of you who may be thinking “Ooi! You went to watch movie or see Old aunty and uncle being cuddly”!! Oppsieeeeeeeeee too much info there….

e) Did not visit Uncle Aravind and family over the weekend. This is definitely weird as I’m in their house every other day or at least the weekend! Aunty called me on Tuesday wondering where I was, while Uncle who blogs and comments as Aravind in my blog actually wondered if I had gone back to Bali without informing. Ha ha so cute. I know deep inside they miss me. Now I just have to make time and visit them this weekend. The amusing part of it all is that I got to make time just to visit Uncle Aravind and family who actually lives opposite my house!! So far right? He he

f) I saw one young Indian couple. The guy parked his car at the side of the road, crossed the road with his other half (I presume she was his other half as I saw them hugging and kissing) and he waited till the bus moved. I was thinking to myself how cute and romantic….

Wow! Taking the bus has really made me observe the many characters of the environment and the people on it. It has been a beautiful experience. Hopefully this feeling stays for a long time.

It’s truly nice to be blogging about all this though it does not seem like a flow but these are just a few things I thought I should type about for someday when I look back at this post I want to remember… the little little things that has made me smile once upon a time in Cathy’s life!

God Bless you all

Cheers….
