Kuala Lumpur: end of 2007 journey

This is our last destination: Kuala Lumpur.
Some of the girls were tired sleeping in a hostel because they found it not cozy to stay there. After walking for almost one hour looking for a hotel, we ended up in a very cozy hostel. Number eight hostel. The place was clean, (almost) all staff were friendly. The owner of the hostel was also very nice and helpful.

We went to Genting Highland which was my night mare ever. swing in a height of 800 m above the sea level. I would never go back to Genting again. Our cable car on the way back had to stop due to the bad weather. It was the most scariest moment in my life.

I guess our journey was not the test of our friendship but it was more exploring our own fear and learning other friends' fear. Trying to understand that and trying to live peace with that.

We are already planning what will be our destination next year. Some places were raised up. Each of us tries to give argument why we want to go there. Maccau-Hongkong-Shen Zhen. Umrah trip. Tour de Java. West Sumatra trip.
We'll see where our faith brings us.

Anyone would like to join with us. feel free to contact me.

Sepa island:outing with company: throwing away my past

had a great time there with coleagues and boss. done some stupid but hillarious funny games.

In Sepa I throwed away one of my rings, sign of leeting go one of may past stories.The memories are and will always be alive but it is time to move on.

Malacca: confronting the fears

From Singapore, we actually wanted to explore Johor Baru first before riding to Melaka. But then we were all too tired to carry our backpack and walk in the city. before we entering Malaysia via Johor, we had to pass the immigration section. Yolla once again had to confront her own fear and hate for Indian people as she got an Indian immigration officer hahahaha. He thought that she is one of the illegal worker.

For Yolla: the more you ignore me the closer I get. you're wasting your time

heheheh

Not only Yolla who had to confront with her fear, Dian also experienced that.
One day we at in a small restaurant. And then an old beggar came near to all visitors there including Dian. Dian jumped off her seat and moved to another seat.
I could not understand why she reacted that way. I was very disapointed with her attitude. Later on I found out that she has fear for wounds. It seemed that the beggar had so much wounds on his foot.

All I can say that Malacca is the best place among other places that we visited this time. It's like going back to the ancient time.

We had fun there. The food was great, the people were nice.

Singapore 2: discovering that we are somehow racist

In Singapore we could not ffind the ood that suit to our taste. Somehow I think that my friend Mo was right that I am and also my friends chauvinist but only when it comes to food. We, Indonesians, are proud of our food. It happens a lot that we dont like the taste of other countries food because its so different. Even in China, people say that the food there is not nice while its definitely the authentic of chinese food. Better the chinese food in Indonesia people say.
A Malaysian said that Malaysia can't and should not compete with the Indonesian food and Indonesian musician.
Now about the racism. We just realized that we are so racist when we felt a little bit uncomfort near by the Indiaan people. Our hostel is located at the Little India. And I dont know how to describe it but somehow it felt uncomfortable for my friends to be around them. Its a not good attitude but I am sure in the future it will get better. We all just have to see the world more.
Everyone may different on the surface but at the end of the day, we all want the same thing which is happiness.

Suspects of crime: 7girls

Last week of July, 7 girls went traveling. We have planned it for about one year as it was not easy to gather 7 girls together. Last year we were only with 5 girls and this year we were with 7 girls. All with different characters.

We have Melda, miss shopping. She carried minimal one paper bag every time we went out.

Then we have Irev, miss hygienic and miss grumpy. eat from the street vendor is a big no no for her. Couple of times complained about the food.

Then Anita, miss fearless. A lot of energy and didn't fear of anything.

The fourth one is Yeni, miss food taster. Her passion for food is amazing. always tried different kind of food and no regret at all if the food was not delicious.

Then Dian, miss foot pain. The journey was not an easy one for her. She suffered a lot with her foot. It was her own fault. She doesn't like milk heheh.

Then we have Miss Yolla, miss dirty mind. Seemed to me that her biological clock is so ticking. Yolla and Dian were very good partners in talking about sex.

The last one is me, miss acrophobia. I just found out there that I am afraid of height. but lucky that I have such good friends. Dian was calming me, Irev was saying: ach this is only a piece of cake. Anita was taking my picture while I was grinning. hahahahah
