Turbud Day-3

2.00 a.m. we arrived at the hotel. We simply gathered at the lobby and took our key. After that I went to my room with my roommates. Before sleeping we decided to take a bath. Even though it was 3.00 a.m. in the dawn we decided to because it had been 3 days we didn't bathe :( how dirty. After bathing, everything felt fresher and better which made our sleep nice. We also decided to pack our backpack first so that we wouldn't be messed up if we were late.
At 4.45 a.m. my alarm rang. I woke my friends and took a bath. I was really excited because it was the beach day! We would visit 3 beaches in a day! I couldn't wait to get the sun kissed skin, beachy hair and the salt smelt air. I was so excited!
Everything was done at 6 .00 a.m. we were not late for breakfast. The breakfast was held at the 5th floor of the hotel. It was great.

After having breakfast, we went to our bus and had a short introduction with the local tour guide. We were heading to Tanjung Benoa beach. On our way there, the tour guide told us many things about Bali. 

We also walked over a highway. The highway itself was freshly built and was thought to be the most beautiful highway in the world and the most important thing is it was made and designed by Indonesian architects! 

view we got from the highway

As we arrived at the beach, we were told to contact our tour leader (from the agency) to get our tickets for some activities there. I bought two tickets, one for snorkeling, the other one is for doughnut boat.

We waited for awhile to get the tickets. As I got my tickets, I simply went to my friend from other class to play together. We went to the doughnut boat stand first as waiting for the other to snorkeling. The doughnut boat was awesome! We sit on the doughnut like boat, the boat would be pulled by a speedboat. It was awesome, we went up and down following the stream of the waves! I could fell the salted air blowing through my face, and also the splashing water that made my hair wet.

After the boat ride, my friends arrived and we did the snorkeling. Unfortunately snorkeling was held at the same place with diving and sea walking which was a deep location with strong waves. But it was fun though.

 

As I finished snorkeling, I went back to my class group. They were all ready to eat while I was really wet. So I took a bath and joined them having lunch.

After that we headed to the second beach. It was Pandawa Beach which was famous for its clear water and clean area. We had to walk pas the stone mountainside. It was really pretty. We had to walk a bit to get to the beach because bus wasn't allowed to get in. The beach was really beautiful and clean. There we did some sport activities like football and canoeing. I did the canoeing. It was quite hard to control the canoe, but fun at the same time! OMG I couldn't ask for more! It was so fun! I love beach, and its activities. I also could meet some stray dogs there which made me happier!

After visiting Pandawa beach, we went to Garuda Wisnu Kencana or GWK park, there we took some photos with the class and the whole students class of 2016. After taking picts, we watched a dancing show. There were another group of visitor that were so noisy that I couldn't enjoy the show well.

It was tiring there but we had one beach left to go. It was also raining a bit outside.I decided to sleep on the way there because I was exhausted. 

As We arrived at Jimbaran Bay which is the last beach for the day, we picked our seat and had our dinner there. It was so fun, the dinner was good tho. There were fish there and I didn't want to eat for awhile because, u know, I had just seen fishes swimming in front of me on the morning. There we also watch some performances and released a paper lantern. the lanterns looked pretty on the sky.

After that we headed back to the hotel, had a bath and slept. Because the next day will be so much fun :)))

Turbud Day-2

I was awaken every hour that it wasn't a great sleep. I felt better as the train arrived in Surabaya. after that we headed to a restaurant to have breakfast. At the restaurant so of us brushed their teeth and washed their face. Nobody seemed to take a bath because there wasn't enough place to bath.

 

After having breakfast, we headed to another restaurant. The trip was quite long. It was 3 hours long that we could have good sleep. The bus was comfortable too. At the next restaurant we had lunch, some of us also took a bath there. It was a bit longer break. After that we continued to trip to Banyuwangi. the next couple hours some of us decided not to sleep, so did I. we ate snacks, shared jokes and had a chit chat.

The road to Banyuwangi wa terrible, the driver also drove in high speed that some of us got sick and decided to sleep. As we got closer to Banyuwangi, we could see  beautiful scenery of the sea. It was heartwarming and boosted out mood up.

We arrived at a restaurant and had dinner there. We also had a long break there. After that we headed to the harbor. At the harbor we had to wait for a while. We were told to get out of the bus and walk to the ship. On our way to the ship we could see the sea under us. Some local men dove and shouted random things that I didn't understand. Here is the pict at the harbor it was beautiful with the perfect lighting.

First level of the ship was crowded and hot, so I decided to be on the second level of the ship with my friends. I enjoyed being there, the air was perfect. I enjoyed the wind blowing my hair and my skin. It was so fun and I also enjoyed the movement of the ship as it got hit by the wave. It was perfect! I enjoyed every little things there.
We also took some pictures there. You know, girls will always be like that hahaha.

As we arrived we were told to get down. I went down and had to wait for a moment. It was really hot there.
After that we went back to the bus and continued the trip to the hotel. It took about 4 hours as they expected.

Turbud Day-1

Dear blog, I'm so excited about this post. But first I'm gonna tell you what turbud is. Turbud is a program designed for the eleventh graders. the eleventh graders will have a trip to Bali for about a week. They will visit some holiday destinations in Bali. Turbud is hoped to increase the togetherness of the eleventh graders.
So, on the first day, we were told to gather at the station. I went to the station at 1.30 p.m. because my house wasn't too far from the station. At the station I met my classmates and waited for our tickets and some things.

I'm so ready to go with the ticket on my hand :)

The get my name wrong :(

At 3.00 p.m. the travel agency distributed the tickets to us. We also got out luggage tag and the trip schedule. After that we were told to go to the train. We had to walk past some rails to get to the train. As I arrived at the train, I made it fast to get to my seat and put my luggage in the cabin. Then I put my backpack by my side and took out some goods such as ticket, phone charger and drink. after that I repack my backpack to make it easier for me to get the medicine and some stuff just in case I need it.

My on-the-go medicine pack :)

 Not longer after that, the train started operating. 15 minute later we got our ticket checked. As the checking process done, some of my friends started the substitution of their seats. I didn't change my seat because my seatmate was my friend and we decided not to move, so yea :)

The train was quite crowded as my friends started the substitution.

The first hour was great. The sun was still up and we could see the scenery clearly. I took some picts of the scenery. It was amazing as you can see

 

At 6.00 p.m. the sun had gone down. I started feeling bored as there was not much to see. But the dinner was delivered so it wasn't bad tho. After having dinner, my energy was charged that I started strolling around and made some mess with my friends that caused me having no seat :(

I was bored and had no seat until 11.30 p.m. And it was quite hard to sleep. Idk why but maybe it was because of the over excitement (?)

#UrbanCamprt2015

It's the hashtag we used to post some picts that describe the scoutt activities for the eleventh graders. It took place at Rindam III Siliwangi. But not as we expected, we didn't spent the day there but all around Bandung. We explore Bandung to get to each post and finish the mission there. 

First we gathered at Rindam and get some directions. Each group had to add the scoutt line account and read the directions there. After that we started our journey. 

My group was told to get to Taman Pramuka. There we had to take picture. Send it to the account and get the mission. The mission was tofinish navigation and pioneering assignments. Here is our result.

And here is our picture at Taman Pramuka 

I bet we all look so fresh there.

After that, we were told to go ti Asia Africa street and took picture at Cikapundung Riverside as tge key to our next mission. And here it is.

After that our mission was fun. We were told to do the photochallenge. Can't describe how fun it was. Hope u all get it through these picts.

A pict with the statues, we tried to copy the pose.

We have to take a pict with the flag pole.

We have to take a picture at the word BRAGA, I tried to recall some memories as a ballerina. Lol

We have to take a picture with the old typewriter, so we decided to make it a bit candid like.

A pict at alun alun kota bandung which is famous for its synthetic grass. It was hot there and full with kind playing around.

This is the challenge to take picts of some fasilities there.

After the photo hunt mission we were told to get to balai kota and took picture at one of the statue there so we decided to take a picure at the LOVE wall.

There we had to find some cards. My group had to find the brown one. It was wuite hard to find them.

After that we were told to go to DAGO and to take picture at the letter D A G O

We get more tired there as you can tell, after that we got the riddle which brought us to visit taman jomblo, taman film, boromeus hospital and ITB

The last picture was taken at ITB and u can see that we look so tired and pale there. It was exteremely tiring. We had to walk most of the time. After that we went to monumen perjuangan. It was a long journey, as we took the wrong transportasion we had to walk. There, we had to finish some riddles. After that we had to go to museum geologi. There we finish some questions. We had to find the answers inside the museum.

After that we went back to Rindam III Siliwangi to finish the event. It was si fun yet tiring. We got to know each other more adn also got a one-day-workout and help us getting our ideal weight hahaha lol =)).

Movie Review : Catching Fire

You might want to see the trailer first here http://youtu.be/EAzGXqJSDJ8 

As the sequel of the trilogy, it tells the next adventure of Katniss Everdeen with her rebellion against president snow and capitol. Further synopsis can be seen here http://m.imdb.com/title/tt1951264/synopsis

So the end calls out my curiousity, which is perfectly made in the movie. Compared to The Hunger Games, Catching Fire is more like the book. It has more details from the book than The Hunger Games has. And the effect is perfect that I can feel the same atmosphere as reading the book. It is amazing. It does worth the wait especially for those fans out there.
