Pre-birthday Trip to Bali (1-6 April 2022)

Remember that I was broken heart because the cruise was cancelled. Amazingly, God has better plan indeed and the best thing is I am able to travel to overseas and fully sponsored by company. 

It's 5 nights and I am able to enjoy my "me" time without needing to think what's next.

Yes, it's been a hectic week prior to departure as my boss just decided that we go to bali 10 days before departure date and I need to think from A - Z where to stay, the master plan, place to eat, etc.

However, when I landed in Bali, I feel so much younger haha... can enjoy my own sweet time.

Thanks Jesus for the birthday gift.

Day 1 - 1 April

It's not April mop, it feels surreal to be able to fly again. Watching House of Gucci while enjoying my super simple dinner at SQ



Waiting for PCR and VOA, it's a smooth sailing, everything only takes 30 - 40 mins.


My first meal in Bali which is suckling pig.


The hotel I stay is Courtyard by Marriott, it's so comfy and homy. The size and design are perfect for me and it's facing the pool too




Day 2 - 2 April

Rise and shine, having my regular quiet time and praying then I head to gym for my exercise. It feels so good that I can have my own sweet time without need to rush.


After gym, then I enjoy my healthy breakfast. The portion is just enough for me.



After showering then I do some selfies in balcony haha...



Then I met with fellow team for bbq lunch, it's so good to meet them face to face.





Then after that, it's time to burn all the calories and we had team bonding at hotel roof top. It's scorching hot but it didn't defer the the fun. We had 3 games and it's so much fun filled with laughter. To close the hot day, I decided to dip into the pool afterwards while sipping pinnacolada.








It's time to get wild in the night, we had dinner at Motel Mexicola for some mexican food and continued with party until I reached 10K steps hahahha.... It's definitely a night to remember, things that I never be able to do before when I was young. For a moment, I forgot that I had family hahaha...








Day 3 - 3 April

I woke up as usual and attended the online mass first before starting the day, then continue with usual regime which is GYM and only do 40 mins, upper body workout before heading for breakfast. Then, I went for 150 mins spa, it felt so good, relaxing and rejuvenated.





Then, another beach party at Finns Beach club till the night.












Day 4 - 4 April

It's working day and we get a bit more serious for today. I started my day with gym as usual to revitalise and recharge my body and mind. 


Then we have morning and afternoon workshops and lunch in between at Kilo. 




The food was good, appetizing, and delicious.

After afternoon workshop, we caught sunset at Jimbaran while enjoying bbq seafood. 
It's amazing, things that I have been missing for 2 years.






Day 5 - 5 April 

Today is another fun day, we play hard and work hard. We did white rafting in the morning, having local Bali food Bebek tepi sawah and continue with afternoon workshop.














Day 6 - 6 April

Last day of the vacation, things that I will miss a lot is freedom to be who I am.
For 6 days, I just feel so alive, I don't need to serve anyone day and night. I can spend the time as much as I can to do the things that I love. No rushing, just chill. 

This is one of the best trips  I ever had in my life and the best of birthday gift from God that I can't thank enough for His great blessings.

A Burger Date

It feels like it's been ages to have a date night with hubby, thus before my parents going back to Indo we decided to have a couple date over burger as I have been craving with Hans I'm Gluck burger. We went there, enjoying the burger and companion of each other and talking about anything, something that we are used to have but no longer anymore after I took a new role in the company. Then, I accompanied him to shop at H&M before heading back home. It's one of the best burgers I ever had since I am in fasting the whole day for a week. The perk of fasting is I could appreciate the food and enjoy it.

Jubilee Year - Year of Hope (2025)

Year of Hope: A Personal Reflection on 2025 The year 2025 has been declared a Jubilee Year, a  Year of Hope  by the Pope—a time for peace, joy, and prosperity. For many, entering a new year brings feelings of happiness and optimism. However, I find myself on a different path, starting the year with anxiety and uncertainty rather than joy and hope. For me, 2025 is a year of the unknown. It marks the first time in four years that I will not hold the title of a working mom. Transitioning from this identity feels daunting and unfamiliar. It is also the year I plan to embark on a new venture: starting a winter rental business. This endeavor excites me but is fraught with challenges. There are countless pieces of the puzzle yet to be solved, and I pray for wisdom and the support of "ordinary angels" to guide me through. This is also a pivotal year for our family. Two of our children will face major exams. While I know the journey matters more than the results, I hope they develop s...
