Toya Bungkah Hot Spring

Minggu pagi jam 7 aku membangunkan anton u/ berendam air hangat di pemandian. Entrance fee 50 rb/org, include welcome drink, breakfast, towel dan pemakaian fasilitas. Mulanya aku g tahan panasnya air saat kaki dan badanku masuk ke kolam. disitu ada 3 kolam, 2 diantaranya air panas, dan 1'nya kolam dingin. Ada juga area camping ground dgn harga sewa 250 rb (kurang jelas per org/tenda), lengkap dgn tenda dan matras. Semahal itu mungkin krn view yg WWUAAHH.. dan tambahan fasilitas lain.

Setelah 1 jam berendam, kami jalan2 disekitar area, photo2 dan pesan sarapan. Lalu kita renang2 di kolam dingin, rendam lg di kolam panas sampe jam 10. Kembali ke penginapan, early lunch, beres2 dan jam 12 beranjak plg DPS tiba jam 2. Sbnrnya bisa lebih cepat, tp kita ambil jalur yg ternyata lebih jauh, yaitu lewat Bangli, dimana shrsnya bisa lewat Tegalalang ato Tapaksiring tembus Ubud.

Kintamani - Toya Bungkah (Hot Spring)

Sampelah kita di penginapan yg sering anton pake bersama tmn2 GMSI sblmnya. Sewa 40 ribu, plus 10 rb kl include breakfast nasgor. Lovina namanya kl g salah. persis didepan pemandian air panas Toya Bungkah, tinggal nyebrang jalan kecil. View depan kamar adalah Gunung Abang, sebelah timur danau Kintamani. Penginapan itu juga ada restorannya. Menu andalan, yg kami pesan 2x buat mkn mlm n siang, adalah Fried Mujair with Sambal Matah khas Bali seharga 13 rebu. Penginapan itu punya 3 anjing kintamani cewek, badannya kekar2. G pernah dimandiin krn mereka suka turun ke danau u/ mandi sendiri dan makan ikan2 kecil yg terdampar. Aku suka anjing kecilnya, yg lsg men"dempet" manja dipunggungku.

Condolence to a friend

Suddenly at 9 am on Monday i got sad news that my friend's baby has passed away. She was just 2 months old beautiful baby. she was their first child. i went to their house with the other friends right away. it was all men there. so i went inside to meet his wife who i don't know much. not knowing what to say, i hugged her and rubbed her hair. hoping that keeping her in conversation will make her not cry for temporary, i asked and said few things delicately. then i stepped outside to meet my friend, the father. he said that he couldn't believe it. they were playing with the baby the other morning and she suddenly got fever.. and the next few hours..died. at hospital.

Death is everywhere. i mean it happens so naturally, so quick, and no exception. Before, on Sunday me, anton and ciko went to vet clinic for ciko having his 3rd vaccine. we wait outside the doctor's room who was examining a big white dog -seemed like kintamani- covered in a thick blanket. Then the dog brought outside to its owner car. while i thought that the dog was heavily sick, its actually dead. The clinic staff said that the doctor had'nt done anything yet when it's brought inside and died.

Back to my friend's baby. This morning the baby was cremated since they are Chinese family. When i was with the mother on the first day, i was going to tell my experience too. How my grandparents died and i wasn't there; when my dogs died and i was so sorry not there again. Feels like they had been kidnapped from me; feels that your heart had been taken away just like that. How i think that it's what is called Death, and like it or not, we must accept. And how i curse death. But i held my tongue cause i didn't think its the right time to say. Well... Nothing to say then.

Idol and Enemy

I never have an idol.
Since i was a kid when it was the age of a child to adore a public figure such as singer, actress/actor, football player, cartoon hero or simply his father or mother. When my sister was an admirer of Fariz RM and my brother loved so much to watch Gaban.

I just thought that we all humans. Nobody is higher or more perfect than others. True that some people have something more compared to other people. But it's just 1 thing. That other people also have something that the famous people don't have. It is balance.

You like something or someone, okay. But becoming fans when it's not controlled could turn you to be a maniac. Love necessarily. It's dangerous. Why do you think terrorist do what they do?

Having an idol and be so maniac about it will lead to many bad things.

I never have an enemy.
