Redang Island

Have you guys heard Redang Island ? 

I bet most of you have not. It is located in Kualatrengganu, Malaysia. Lately, Redang island is popular among tourist. It is famous with a wonderful scenery of the sea which blue transparent anad you can see inside the sea. The island is very isolated but don't worry there are so many places you can hang out over there. They have karaoke and cafes. 

So, I went to Redang Island last August with my friends from Singapore. It took 12 hours to arrive in Redang Island. We used bus from Singapore to Kualatrengganu and then from there we rode a ferry to get to Redang Island. the price ? it is inexpensive depending which hotel you wanna stay. Basically, their packages are the same. Anyway, It was long journey. But it payed off by the beautiful scenery which totally natural. Based on some resources, they limit the guests each year to prevent the beach from the dirtiness and amazingly, they also have time when they need to close the island in order to clean the sea. Wow, isn't it wonderful how they maintain the natural resources ? 

So, it is highly recommended for those beach lovers

Here's some picture from Redang Island. Enjoy the pictures.

See the wave ?

This is the place where one of Hongkong's movie shoot. I forget the name of the movie.

This should be sunrise, but there is not sunrise.

So, Highly recommended, isn't it ?

When 'Forever' Was just a Word

I used to be distracted by word Best Friend Forever. To me the words of "BFF" was just a bullshit. It started when I was betrayed many times with the one who I thought my best friends. Since then, I start not to believe in word "BFF". Then, I always feel that them who I thought my close friends, was just looking at me when they got trouble otherwise I am just a leaf ready to be blown away. So, at the end, I assume all my close friends are just a friend. Yeah, thoughts of  friends Forever was a bullshit, people do change and forever is just a word. I'm growing up, WE are growing up. The thoughts of "Best Friends" was never there. Until they come into my life and prove that "Forever" exists. Thanks to them, now, Let me introduce you to my Best Friends.

Cecillia Marlina. Another Indonesian friends. She is originally from Semarang.  I met her in my first semester in CIMP but then I was just limited saying "Hello" until I go to church together with her, Angelique, Anastasia, Dian and Jessica I close to her. She is very calm, smart and pretty young lady. There are so much changes from the beginning I met her. I meant changes in positive way. 

Jessica Budiman Salim. She is Indonesian also from Indonesia's capital city, Jakarta.  I  close to her since my 3rd semester in CIMP. We were in the same Economic class. I spent almost 12 hours with her in my last semester like eating, studying, having fun together in campus.  Since then, we found a connection to each others. I was startled by her hidden personality. She is an awesome, smart girl and  a very kind of lady u want to be with. I warn you don't judge a book by its cover. ;) 

Edrea Jessica Teruntung. She is also from Jakarta. Well, I just  met her like 6 months ago after I am in Singapore. Angelique and Chika introduced me to her. After get to know each other for a week. I found similar personality and we get along really well. She is a determined person yet pretty and smart young lady. She has dimple as well. She has a cheerful personality and mature side as well. She is sweet. 

Anastasia Budiman. Yeah, you may find similarity with Jessica Budiman Salim.  Anastasia is  Jessica's older sister.  I close to her since I close to Jessica and Angelique. These three people like the three musketeer, always together. So, I got attached since then. LOL She is a smart and awesome lady. The most importantly is she has SWAG! She is nominated as the most annoying girl among us. But, she has friendly and kind personality. Watch out guys, she is taken. ;) 

Angelique Koswadi. She is one of the people who succeed  change my  perception. She is from Bandung, Indonesia. I met her since her 1st semester in CIMP but we were not close yet till we were both attend same English class. Since then, I close to her and I had so much fun yet exciting journey with her. She has a good personality although she looks fierce at first but trust me, when you get to know her, she is lovely. 

Tan Shih Shien. She is Malaysian too. Jessica and Angelique who introduced me to her in my CIMP last semester. We were in the English and Economic class together. I don't have much words to say . Believe me or not this 3 words are more than enough to describe her, down to earth. Yeah, those 3 words are more than enough to describe her personality You won't believe me but yeah she is.  She is beyond awesome. Find out by yourself! ;)

Tow Xin Yu. She is Malaysian. I met her in my last semester in CIMP.  Me, her and Jessica were in the Economic class together. At first, Jessica and her closed already then Jessica introduced me to her. She was kind of creepy at first but by the time goes, me and her can get along really well. I like to bully her. I like her cheerful and childish personality. Wait, I'm not finish yet. She may has those personality but she is super mature and smart girl. Don't underestimate her!

Last but not least. Let me introduce you Beatrix Florence Walter . She is originally from  Riau Island near Batam, Indonesia. But then, since Secondary school she went to Malaysia to continue her study and I am not quite sure how, but she is now stay in Johor Bahru, Malaysia. I met her 6 months also just like Edrea. She has surprising personality. She looks extremely fierce and cocky AT FIRST. ah ah, I was BIG wrong. She is super funny and kind of  crazy. I just knew this side of her when I went to Malaysia last week. I'm quite surprised. Anyway, She is smart, kind girl and already taken! ;)

Add ca Actually, there is one more named Diana, she is from Africa but I don't know the exact country. Sorry, could not upload the photos right away, somehow the connection fails. I met her during Sunday mass, again, She was introduced by Angelique, Anastasia and Jessica. Since then, we shared story like about diet thingy. She is very motherly, kind, smart and calm. Anyways, photo coming soon.;)

So, yeahh, here they are who successfully brighten my day each day. We know that we are from different part of world, languages and cultures. But, those are not stop us from build up friendship across country. What make us united ?  

Tolerance 

Understanding 

Communication

One Year Older is No a Big Deal

HAPPY 19TH B'DAY JESSICA BUDIMAN SALIM

yeahh, welcome to our last teenagers life. next year we are gonna be 20th. Chika, that is the nick name that I used to call her. She just turned to 19th Years old on 26th August 2012. Yes, I am totally late posting it now, but I still remember to post it in my blog, rite ? She is one of my closest friends and she is in Malaysia and she is from Jakarta, Indonesia. If I were in Malaysia, I will be with her in the same university. I miss her though.
I have a story in her b'day. You know what, I wish her a little late. I thought her b'day was on 27th August. and guess what I asked her sister what gift that they want to give her and I want to join them. So, I asked her "Nas, chika's b'day is on 27th, rite ?" and stupidly, she answered "Yes. Why and bla bla bla bla bla bla" . So, I marked my calender on that day. So on 26th August, I did not wish her on 12 midnight till I my friends put it on BBM's status "Happy B'day Chika" with their surprise photos. I was like, super shocked and I ask her to confirm her b'day. I asked her "Chika, ur b'day is tomorrow, rite ?" she replied, "No, today." at that time I felt really really really and super duper guilty. Even till now!!!! I supposed wish her at 12 midnight. T__T so, I called her but eventually she was on the way to pyramid, so She could not answered the phone and yeahhh, I wish her through BBM and say thousands sorry.

P.s: Next year, I am gonna be the first one to say Happy B'day to you Chik. I have changed the date! Don't worry.



                         I am gonna say HAPPY B'DAY DEAR. I wish u nothing but the best.
