Soundrenaline 2009 Bali - The day after

Posted by klubbkidd Thursday, November 19, 2009
So three short days in Bali. But lots of memories to take back. Yang penting - walaopon rasa kaki nak patah sebab malam Soundrenaline tuh, we had to walk a few kilometers to get to our ride sebab it was parked away from the main traffic which took hours to get out of.

Strangely soothing - the walk that is. That is until the next morning, when I realised that I had done too much walking in Bali. Betis, peha semua rasa cam over exerted sangat. But then again, having fun there, it was a small price to pay.

The next morning - on Monday morning, while everyone else I knew back home was preparing to work, I took a little time out to walk along Kuta beach. Wow... it's almost impossible to imagine that I cam all the way to Bali, Kuta no less, and this was my first real walk on the beach. Because of the packed program, I barely had any time to do anything else.

But puas la gak sebab dapat gak merasa Bali. Now it's definitely one of my must return to destinations. Check out how gorgeous it is. And dig the big waves. Patutla Kuta ni kira surfing destination gak.








After a quick stroll on the beach, it was back to more important things. Going back to Legian, with a quick detour to Poppy Street.




Didn't buy anything cause everything was pricier than Sukawati. Except for this awesome motorcycle helmet I saw.

Walaopon takde motor, and walaopon bukan leh pakai helmet tuh kat Malaysia pon sebab tak Sirim, but it was nice enough to attract my attention. Siap ada skull mask which was a one piece affair with the rest of the helmet.

Opening price? 600,000 Rupiah. Kimak... aku bargain sampai turun 500,000. Tapi tu je. So decided not to buy. Aku sound mamat tuh kalao 250,000 aku beli. Matilaaaa....

Headed back to Harris, and packed up. And we rushed to the airport. Kira spend every last second possible in Bali gituh. Damn... I am so going to return here (hear that Leo... plus on top of that makes me wanna go Jogjakarta all the more!)




Check in sebab konon da boarding when we got there pas load semua. Tak sempat isap rokok atau lunch. Cam kesial... sebab bila sampai ke dalam, kapalterbang pun lom sampai. Cam kesial AirAsia. Since kita da kat dalam, nak wat camna.. nak isap rokok pon takleh.. perot pon da royal rumble.

Seb baik turnaround time dia cepat sikit. Tunggu pon nak setengah jam je. Tu pun dalam keadaan lapar dan memerlukan rokok... rasa nak noya telan orang je.

Memang cacat la AirAsia ni. Menyusahkan orang je. Seb baik servis dia da mula ok sikit (walaopon tetap konsep sprint ke hujung terminal kan sebab plane parking jauh hina gituh). Tetap crew adik-adik! Tapi meka semua pala ok... so tak noya sangat aku ni.

I doubt you'd be smiling kalao kena dok sana.


Reached KL pon da lewat petang. Ujan ribut time tuh. Tapi sebab da redah kepanasan Bali (keluar bilik hotel je da basah kuyup t shirt akibat peluh), memang besh la cuaca.



Lengkap jugak aku dapat document perjalanan aku ke Bali.

Thanks again so much to friends at Universal Music Malaysia, especially Mujahid, Poji sebab jadi bapak ayam gituh menjaga kita semua sana, mas Dian yang menadi supir happening bawak ke mana saja and kengkawan yang made it fun.

Also to Nidji's awesome management who took care of us masa Soundrenaline.

Mantap!

Ok la... sapa yang sentap jeles baca posting pasal Bali, tunggu je update besok pasal Muzik Muzik separuh akhir ketiga di mana 14 lagu yang akan melangkah ke Anugerah Juara Lagu akan diumumkan.

Aku sambung layan episode terbaru Glee... me obsessed with Glee. Just finished watching Heroes while uploading pics and all. Getting weird.Seb baik America's Next Top Model and Project Runway da nak abih season. I can't take all this obsession in keeping up with the latest episodes da.

Night all.
