Flying Fox and Sky Biking at Krisna Adventures

Fun Activities in Singaraja

There’re so many challenging activities I want to do in this life. Sadly, I’m too scared to do most of them.

One the things that I’d always wanted to try was Flying Fox. Actually, I’ve tried this once in the first year of college when I was registering to join the Nature Lovers club. But it wasn’t a real flying fox, it was short and not too high, especially installed by the members of the club to attract the new students.

Another reason why I never tried real flying fox before was because I couldn’t afford it hehe.

Lotus Temple

Seven years ago, in 2012, I was in third semester of university and was taking Speaking 3 class. We were given a different task every week and one day we were asked to present about a famous place in the world. I chose to talk about Lotus Temple. Maybe it’s not a really famous place, but its beautiful architecture made me fall in love with it the first time I saw its pictures. One of my cousins had gone there and I was really jealous of him.

Tak banyak yang berubah dari desa kecil tempatku dilahirkan ini. Hampir semuanya masih sama seperti ketika terakhir kali aku ada di sini, sepuluh tahun yang lalu. Kuhirup udara segar pedesaan yang sudah sangat kurindukan. Hamparan sawah serta bukit menghijau memanjakan mataku yang sudah muak dengan tinggi dan padatnya gedung pencakar langit di Jakarta.

“Changi Airport” di Bandung

Nama Changi aiport mungkin sudah tidak asing lagi di telinga para wisatawan, bukan hanya wisatawan mancanegara yang sering bolak-balik Singapore, baik untuk mengunjungi negeri tersebut ataupun hanya untuk transit, melainkan juga wisatawan lokal yang sama sekali belum pernah ke luar negeri. Bagaimana tidak? Changi airport sangat gencar beriklan, khususnya di media sosial. Aku pribadi saja entah sudah berapa kali terpapar iklannya di Instagram dan Facebook.

Who doesn’t know Bali? This small island located between Java and Lombok island is is always full of tourists, whether domestic or non domestic. The island that is inhabited by around 4 million people has various choices of tourist objects. Sadly, most of tourists who come to Bali, spend their visit in famous and crowded places like Denpasar and Badung and go to nearby beaches, such as Dream Land, Kuta, Nusa Dua, Sanur, and Pandawa beach. The thing is, there are so many other places which are not less interesting, but less explored like tourist destinations in Buleleng regency, the regency situated in North Bali.

Amanda

“Siapa penulis Cinderella? Siapa penulis Putri Tidur? Aku ingin protes; hidup bukanlah dongeng! Tak ada hidup bahagia selamanya!” kata-kata itu tertulis dengan huruf besar yang berantakan di halaman terakhir buku hariannya. Dia benar, hidup bukanlah sebuah dongeng. Seorang pangeran berkuda putih tidak akan datang ke kehidupanmu dan jatuh cinta padamu pada pandangan pertama seperti yang dikisahkan di dongeng-dongeng pengantar tidur. Hidup jauh lebih rumit dari itu. Menemukan cinta bukanlah hal yang mudah, dan bahkan saat kita berpikir kita sudah menemukan cinta dalam hidup kita, ternyata cinta itu hanyalah fatamorgana.

Short Story: Cassandra's Diary

Cassandra’s Diary

People say time flies, they are right. I was a little bit surprised when I realized that it had been three years since the last time I met her.

            I close my eyes, imagining her sweet face. Long black hair, a pair of brown eyes, perfect-shaped eyebrows, rosy cheeks, pointed nose, thin lips, a small mole about one centimeter under the right eye, hmmmm she was perfect.

            It is 1 a.m, I should have been asleep, but here I am, sitting on a white couch in my living room. Today is supposed to be her 21st birthday. I wonder how she would look if she were still alive. She would be more beautiful I guess.

            My lips curve a sad smile as I take a thick book from my lap and hug it tightly, hoping it was her instead of her diary, “I miss you, Cassandra.”

Creating A Bucket List!!

My name is Luh Ayu Purnayatri, those who know me from my childhood days call me Luh, and others call me Ayu. As you may probably see from my introduction, I'm a very boring person. I live an ordinary and monotonous life: I basically eat the same thing every day, I take the same route to office, I listen to same songs over and over again (my favorite singer is Taylor Swift!), I read same type of books, watch same type of movies. In short, I feel really comfortable with the same things going on in my life and it somehow kinda scares me to try new things.
