Don't wait till you lose her.

I've heard far too many stories from my girlfriends about their bfs. Every girl has that something that they cannot stand.

Talk about me for instance.


1) I expect my Bf to treat me better than my normal friends.

I think, that is not much to ask for right? If my normal friends can treat me better than you did, I think I'm better without you. I have this friend for instance, we treat her better than her bf does. In the emotional sense at least. We listen to her, we talk to her nicely, we don't hit her.


2) If you don't want to do an activity with her, at least let her do it with her friends.

To girls, I think as much as we want our bfs to enjoy the activities we want to do, and yes, we do get a little bummed if you don't do it with us. But hey, it's totally fine. We still have friends to do it with. I recently got hooked on fishing (pun not intended). So I was thinking, why not go camping and fishing at the same time. I told my Bf and to me, he doesn't really seem to be interested in that activity and he's gonna be busy with work. To me, it's fine. I can definitely jio (ask) my cycling buddies or other friends to do it with me. I was even contemplating to do it alone. HEHEHE

3) Don't make promises you can't keep.

I have heard this kind of stories far too many times. Just by making an empty promise, you will appease your gf? It doesn't solve anything. Don't make promises you can't keep. Full stop.


4) Talk is cheap, do it.


When someone tells me they are gonna do this and that for me. I just listen. I don't believe it or expect it. I have had too many experiences whereby people just talk and never do. Want me to be happy because you're gonna do something for me? I'm only gonna be happy when you actually do it.

5) Guys, don't wait till you lose her.

Don't disappoint your girl too many times, coz eventually, she is gonna find someone that treats her better than you did and is a doer more than just a talker. Step on it before you lose her.

Travelling Logs - Part 2

I remember blogging about my Wanderlust dream come true. Thanks to Le Big Bro, He wanted to go somewhere and asked me to choose between Bali and Phuket.


Yes, I chose Bali!!


One reason is that I have never been to Indonesia and I've heard so much about Bali that I want to experience it for myself.

Day 1

We took Garuna Indonesia Airlines. Which I was very pleased with the service. I asked for a blanket and a pen (to fill in my immigration forms). The in-flight entertainment has done a good job in keeping me occupied.

It was a pretty empty flight.

My meal, beef rendang

The view from Le Big Bro's window seat.

We arrived at the airport and MY OH MY, isn't it the most chaotic scene I've ever seen. The airport was filled with taxi drivers and private car drivers wanting to pick foreigners up at a "head chopping" price. I stayed put while Le Big Bro went to find and drivers and haggled the price with him.

Crowded with foreigners and drivers.

On the way to our hotel, I managed to see some Balinese Culture through their buildings.

Balinese infrastructure

A statue of Krishna.

It was after a good 20 mins of chaotic traffic. We arrived at our Hotel.

Hotel Terrace Kuta.

See those rooms with the sliding door access to the pool, we stayed in one of those.  ;)

We were served this ice lemon tea drink upon arrival.

Our room that had a Balinese art piece.

By the time we settled, it was almost time for dinner. I heard that Bali had this place called Naughty Nuri's which serves great ribs. we got a few maps from the hotel reception and we're on our way for some naughty ribs. ;)

Saw some interesting sights on the way.

Streets of Bali

QuikSilver Quotes "Takes One to Know One."

Agreed.

Finally after about an hour or so, we found it! :)

Oooo...Naughty Customers only...sounds quite...nvm :P

These are the best ribs I have ever tasted. Le Big Bro said that it's better than Tony Roma's!

We order some sautéed vegetables and a duck rice. 

The one on the left is ribs sauce, really awesome with anything.

The one on the right is naughtily spicy chilli. It is really spicy.

Made our way back to the hotel and went to Jalan Legian for some Jalan Jalan. 

We went to look at the prices of Roxy over there and I saw the logo on the floor which looks pretty cool.

Everywhere in Bali is selling these D looking bottle openers -.-

Ever heard of the Magic Mushrooms in Bali?

We were not that full and headed back to the hotel. Where we made use of our room and the hotel facilities and went for a swim at the pool.

Day 2

Our day started at 9am when we went for breakfast at the hotel lobby. Breakfast was great. Buffet Style with Rice and Noodle and EGGS OF ANY STYLE. They have local food like Chicken Rendang. We ate as much as we could and started planning for the day.

As much as I want to visit WaterBom Bali, it was unfortunately closed for renovations. We thought, ok, maybe we can go to Circus WaterPark instead. WRONG. Big Mistake.

The entrance of the waterpark

Circus theme is obvious

Doesn't look very exciting.

One of the more exciting rides that we got on.

The view.

I went down to carry the float up. Coz Le Big Bro supports gender equality.

Then his turn to carry the float.

Me gloating while he carries the float.

A video of us on the ride.

We couldn't play this because I'm wearing a bikini and Le Big Bro is shirtless with board shorts.

A bucket full of water.

Waiting for our turn.

On another ride :)

The waddling pool.

Same ride but round 2.

Had some fun and time sun tanning. We went back to the hotel for some pool fun and stopped by the beach to take a look.

                                     

The sunset on the beach.

With a tsunami Evacuation Route.

We went for some shopping. At Krishna!

We each got a sticker before entering.

For an early dinner!

My McD set.

With our loot from Krishna, we can't really go anywhere else.

Headed back for a quick swim before the Van arrives and pick us for our Spa Session.

My loot of the Day!

The van was early and we headed to our Spa place. Bali Green Spa. Le Big Bro googled that place coz he knew I wanted to have a Spa session. Mine was "Spiritual Bliss" and it cost only SGD$46.

We each had our own outdoor hut.

The session ended with a flower bath.

and a cup of ginger tea.

It was Le Big Bro's first time doing Spa. I was enjoying my session so much that I almost fell asleep. While he was just trying to control his laughter through the whole session.

We decided that the night was still young, we bought some instant noodles and went back to the hotel to eat before heading out to the bar beside our hotel.

The minute we ordered out drinks, Le Big Bro said to take a pic. I was surprised. It was rare that he wants to take pics and a selfie at that?! WOW.

Our drinks. Mine is the lychee margarita while his was some local liqueur with coke.

I think mine taste better.

At every bar there is live music. But this was special, I decided to YOLO and asked if I can be the one singing. The guitarist said "Sure" and handed me this song book. I chose my songs and I sang while Le Big Bro took a pic of me.

I really enjoyed myself.

There, we end the night and went back to crash.

Day 3

I researched and found out that Bakso was the famous local food. So I asked the hotel Staff where can I get it. They suggested the market across the road from our Hotel. To much disappointment, there was not Bakso there.

We had some local food instead.

Took a pic of his "POK ZUI" Sprite in a glass. Ignore Le Big Bro's unglam moment. HAHAHA.

My watermelon Juice. Because the weather is too damn hot.

Our food!! 

Beef Rendang (Bottom)

Broccoli with pork (Middle)

Club Sandwich (Top)

After lunch, we stopped by Kuta Square to take a look, nothing fancy though...

It was too hot.

We decided to seek shelter at Discovery Shopping Mall.

The mall!!

Had some cold stone to cool off.

Outside the mall, it was the beach.

HOT!

As we walked along the beach, we saw some kids wearing uniforms.

And this lady carrying food on her head.

Le Big Bro wanted to tan but I was pretty sure I will be burnt. I decided to braid my hair instead.

While I was doing my hair other ladies selling different services came to me and I decided to do pedicure as well.

After doing my hair I had to take a pic of it. I look cool ;)

My nails.

We went out for dinner at a roadside cafe on Jalan Legian. Finally, I had the Bakso I was yearning for. I had Bakso Sapi and Nasi Goreng.

We wanted to go to Sky Garden, unfortunately we were to poor to club. Instead, we went to surfer's bar beside it. Compare to the bar beside our hotel, the prices were a huge difference. Being Surfer's bar more expensive. 

I didn't really enjoy the environment of Surfer's bar because it was too much of a club than a bar. So we headed back to the bar beside our hotel for pool. 

Le Big Bro played with the bartender and lost twice. Every time you lose, you gotta do 20 push-ups. I'm sure the punishment is nothing to Le Big Bro. 

When I played with Le Big Bro, we changed the stakes. Every time you lose, 5 handstand push-ups. I lost twice.

With that, we summed up our last night in Bali.

Day 4

By 1800 we have gotta be at the airport for our flight back.

After breakfast and last shower before we checked out, we decided to head to a mall so we wouldn't perspire so much.

Beach Walk.

South Gate

The view is very spectacular.

We decided to watch a movie, to kill time.

We walked around the mall and I saw this.

"I do love you."

They have a havainas vending machine.

We were getting a little hungry when we saw a cart selling bakso ayam. Chicken meatballs.

Mine was original with all the chilli and sauces.

It was AMAZING!

Le Big Bro had his void of some sauce and chilli. Mine is definitely nicer.

A last glimpse of the beach before we leave.

Soon, it was time for us to return to the hotel and wait for our transport. 

We just chilled at the hotel lounge, as there is a desktop available for us to use.

Snap shot of Le Big Bro in the cab.

This trip definitely satisfy my wanderlust for now. It was so much fun on this trip. Can't wait for my next trip out of the country!

That's all for now ;)
