Bandung Trip

Yoo hoo!!

What a weekend!! I went to Bandung with my friends for 3 days (too bad Lissa didn’t join us on this trip, so practically I was with Debby all the time..). Didn’t have the time to do so many things we wanted to do, but still… We were dynamic duo and we had SO MUCH FUN!!

Here are some things that Debby and I considered as achievements during our trip:
1. I drove all the way to Bandung.
2. I changed my hair color (some reddish-brown-mahogany tone of color).
3. Debby dyed her hair for the first time.
4. Unintentionally got 15% discount for our room rate (haha…).
5. Debby went to Kampung Daun for the first time.
6. I bought a nice pair of shoes and earrings.
7. We found Puri Bambu (restaurant serves all kinds of pork.. hmmm...)
8. I was being a professional navigator the whole trip. I read the map and showed the way.
(No more saying: “women can’t read maps”. I just showed that women can do anything.
Yee ha!!)
9. Debby drove all the way back to Jakarta.

Hmm… there’s something odd but funny happened the last night we were there. Nevin, Selly, Anton, Cecilia, and two of Selly’s friend (forgot the names) were having dinner at The Valley. I decided not to go coz I had a terrible headache and Debby wanted to stay in the hotel with me. We were going to Cibadak to have some nasi campur or bakut but then we cancelled. We were too lazy to drive to Cibadak (approximately half an hour from our hotel). We drove by McD and decided to have our dinner there.

We ordered food and sat by the window/glass wall. We were eating and talking, using this crazy body language and all the sound effects needed to enhance the quality of our conversation, when I realized a bunch of guys sitting on the other side of the glass wall were checking on us. I ignored them and kept talking to Debby.

Then I finished my meal and wanted to clean my hands. One of the guys was washing his hands while I queued behind him. When he’s done washing his hands, I stepped closer to the wash basin and suddenly heard this guy mumbled. I stared at him making sure whether he was talking to me or not. Yup! He was talking to me but I didn’t heard what he said so I asked, “Apa, Mas? (Excuse me…)” Then he shockingly replied,”Saya cuma mau bilang bibir Mba seksi, udah gitu aja, Mba…(I just wanna say that you have sexy lips, that’s it…)”.

**WHAT KIND OF STATEMENT WAS THAT?!** -_-

Read the bold words in the Indonesian version. Apa maksudnya sich?!

**pernyataan super bodoh** -_-

I walked back to our table with this super cool-nothing happened-expression and told Debby about that guy. Debby laughed really loud and made some jokes about it. We waited till those guys entered their cars and set off, making sure they didn’t have another opportunity to meet us or talk to us outside McD, or even worse follow us to our hotel. Then we head back to our hotel room and continue chatting about silly unimportant things…

I will post the pictures soon…

Dear Debby,
At first I thought this weekend would be such a waste. But it turned out to be soooo exciting. Thank’s for making this trip a pleasure girl. Can’t wait for our next quest… Hahaha..
