The World From My Eyes

Had a good time catching up with ex-housemates ;) We should do it more often girls Mama Mia, Ami, & Me P/S: Rindu Brisbane

My dear Johnny was involved in a minor accident yesterday. I was on my way back to the office from my lunch break. Coming out from a junction, I saw the car in front of me heading left. I was looking right to make sure it's clear, lift my foot from the break and I heard a screeching sound. Johnny kissed the butt of a white Toyota uncle. I came out of Johnny and said sorry to the Toyota owner. We exchanged phone number and before I can get a glimpse of his car reg number, he left the scene. Last night, I went all the way to IPD PJ to make a police report. It turns out, you can't simply go to any police station to make an accident report. It has to be reported at the district police station. As mine happened at Kelana Jaya which is in PJ, I have to go to PJ to make the report. Luckily, the police there are very friendly and there's not many people there which made the process a lot easier. Today, I spent the whole morning settling this matter. Firstly, admit Johnny to Pro

Just got back from sending my dad and bro to the airport.  They are on their way to become Allah's guest on the holy land of Mecca. Safe journey to the both of you and see you both in 10 days.

Day 5: We had packed our bags and head straight to the airport as our flight back to KL was at 8.30 in the morning. We had breakfast at the airport before boarding the plane. Luckily we still had some cash on us as we had to pay airport tax of Rp.150K.  Ready to go back home Breakfast before heading home That’s all for my Indonesia trip. Hope you had fun reading this.  Footnote:  The best way to travel around Jakarta and Bandung is via taxi or rent a car with driver as you wouldn’t want to drive yourself around these two cities.  For taxi, use the blue bluebird taxi as these are metered taxi, it’s very affordable and you won’t get ripped by the taxi driver. However, if you travel in group of more than 4 people, it’s best if you can rent a car. The car rental is usually about Rp.450-500K per day for a Toyota Avanza (can fit up to 8 people). You will have the flexibility of travelling at your own pace and there’s a driver that will take you to the places that you want

Day 3: We spent the morning at Pasar Baru Market for last minute shopping. Pasar Baru is an 8 storey shopping mall that sells various items from clothes, bags, fabrics, wedding gifts and even vegetables. The price here is quite cheap compared to the price in Malaysia.  Walking towards Pasar Baru Pasar Baru, Bandung We bought some pretty prayer gowns and my friends even bough fabric for her wedding outfit. I didn’t had time to buy some fabrics for baju kurung. Since we were here for only a few hours, we only managed to cover 2 floors out of 8. I wished we had more time to explore this place as tehre’s a lot more things that we didn’t get to shop for. Maybe we’ll do a lot more shopping in Jakarta.  We had Sundanese food for lunch at one of the restaurant opposite the market and head back to our hotel to check out and got a taxi to send us to Xtrans station for our shuttle bus to Jakarta. There was a bit of drama as the taxi driver took us to the wrong Xtrans station. Then w

Day 1: Our flight to from KL to Bandung was early morning (6.35am). We started the day by waking up late. We were supposed to depart from my house at 4.30am but we woke up at 4.40am. We got ready in a rush and luckily, we already checked in online and we have not check in luggage. Therefore, being a bit late was still ok for us. My brother drove us to the airport at 140km/h. I just close my eyes and prayed that we arrive safely at the airport and not miss the flight. In the end, we managed to board on the flight and safely landed at Bandung Husein Sastranegara Airport. The airport was very small and it looks like only Airasia fly from KL to Bandung as I didn’t see any other airline besides local airlines.  All set and ready to go Safely arrived in Bandung Once we passed the immigration, we took a cab and went straight to our accommodation at Hotel Patradissa, Jalan Wastukencana. We checked in and saw that our room was so big. We booked a family room that can fit up to 6 peop
