HuangShan trip: Day 3 (21 november 08)

the last day at Huangshan. again, early in the morning, we leave hotel around 5.45AM to the top of the mountain to see the sunrise. after arrived there, a lots of people are waiting there to take a good spot. WTF.... they all came there much more earlier than us. haiz....

ou, the sun is coming out.... but.... again, because of the clear blur sky without fog, it makes the view not that great. the more to the camera, it was nice to see through our eye, but very hard to snap it. haiz....

okay, took a rest at a basketball field for about 20 minutes. some of them were playing basketball. but me, for sure i will ate breakfast. hahaha... to refill my power for the next thousand stairs to go down. hahaha....

the last view of HuangShan. i took that chance to took a picture of myself with the view there. because i don't think i will come there again for the next few years, or maybe, forever. hahahaha.... i the other side, i don't think have another HuangShan in the other place. haha....

few minutes from the place i stand in this picture, we arrived at the other cable car station. i feel so disappointed because i thought we will had another few more hours to walk. but yeah, its done. we finally took the cable car down to the bus station and went back to AnHui.

had another 2 presentation from a Tea House company, and Massage company. well, nothing interesting. we just went for lunch and go back to shanghai. arrived shanghai around 8 pm and went to Bali Bistro for dinner. together with nikko, yulia, andriany, michellem, vinna, and heru.

after that, went back home and had a good rest.........


THE END.

HuangShan trip: Day 2 (20 November 08)

the 1st day pass without using any passport. luckily, i can check-in to hotel room, using my student card and my Indonesia driving license. hahahaha... ou well, early in the morning around 7, we leave hotel and went to the place that called "water resources". *sumber mata air dari pegunungan*.

and this place is full of Love. AI. 爱。 i saw a stoned that full of Ai from the old style of Chinese character, until the modern character. and around there, there have alot of beautiful place with a very very very clear of the water from the mountain. and this water, we can drink it on the spot. wow.... how clear it is.

after from that place, we went to a bus station to had another lunch at a restaurant there and then continued our journey to HuangShan. yeeehaaa..... we arrived at cable car station around 1 PM and had a ride about hmm... 15 to 20 minutes to the mountain. the view is AMAZING. wow... this place is really really amazing. well actually, there have 2 way to go to the top of the mountain. 1 is by using cable car, and another 1, walking trough the thousand of stairs. hahaha...

after arrived on the top of the mountain, we still need to walked about 5 hour through another thousand stairs. crossing few different mountains and saw different view from the top of the mountain. but too bad, during our trip, there have no fog at all. it was a very clear day but yeah.... if foggy, it will be much more beautiful.

a lots of story came through during our stairs steps. everytime we take a rest, i always eat to give more power for me. hahaha... sausage and instant noodle was so useful. even though i eat more tha 3 sausage. hahaa... oreo was prepared in my bagpack. oh yeah, i saw snow in HuangShan. wow... what a quick winter during autumn season. hahaha... luckily, i'd already prepare myself with a thick winter coat and hand glove borrowed from my housemate, Pangky. hahaha....

well, after arrived and had dinner in the hotel, me, jay, erlin and cornelius had our food massage. well, 70yuan massage, i don't think it is worth it. i even cannot feel relax on my feet. just feel so so. well, 70 yuan fei jian le. haiz....

TO BE CONTINUE.......

Huang Shan Trip: Day 1 (19 November 08)

hey hey, last week, i just coming back from HuangShan, which is known as the yellow mountain. 上个星期,我跟朋友去黄山。 in the tour, there are 18 people from my school, and bout 47 people in total.

woke up, early in the morning about 5AM and leave home about 5.45AM. the things is that i'd already prepare all the things, but otw to the bus station, i just realize that i forgot to bring my passport. shit.... feeling not that good, because this is not in town. we are going to HuangShan which is at AnHui province, about 5 to 6 hour drive from Shanghai.

well, just pray to GOD that nothing happen during the trip.

leaving Shanghai about 6.45AM and arrive at Hua Shan, AnHui around 1PM. had lunch in a small restaurant. the dishes is not really good. the taste is not that good. 没有味道。well, people said "kalo uda laper, apa pun di hajar smua. yang penting kenyang". lol....

continued our journey to the "sight seeing" place. in my mind, sight seeing place must be a very cool place, especially in China. a lot of nice and good sight seeing place. well, definetely we go to a small cave. actually, it is a real cave, but the government there *i think* modified the cave and it looks so fake. looks lke a man made cave. too bad. we'd already paid 70 bucks for that "nothing sight seeing".

well, don't see the cave side, on the way to the cave, there is a bridge with a very very beautiful view. well, this is the picture below, above and around the bridge. there you go.



from here, we went to a small temple, about 1 hour drive to the temple. after temple, we went to our hotel and put our stuff. then go to a hmmm.... like a china town, but i don't know the name. hahaha.... such a nice place. it is so china. hahahaha.... after that, we don't know where we should go for our dinner. and the great decision was that we all go for KFC. yeah... KFC. went to HuangShan for this far, and we had our dinner for KFC. wkwk.... lol.....

My Life Episode 4: SAVE

this is not the 1st time, i think most of the month the word broke, overspent, happening, and lazy is always surround me. well, i must change my lifestyle start from today. i'd put my status *private msg* at facebook "ALex gonna leave his current "happening" live, and will start all over again with healthy life.....".

MY PROBLEM:

financial: i can said that i spent for something that i ain't really need it, but still i need to pay money for it. like eat, drinks, meals, and so on. the others is that i spent for shopping. i knew that i overspent for this stuffs but i promise to myself, i will not buy this kind of stuff again, if i don't really need it. NO MORE SHOPPING.

health: since the 1st time i came here, i think i change a lot especially about my health. at 1st, i drink milk and juice everyday. but now, i event don't 'taste' the milk and juice for more than 1 month dy. shit.... the more to fruit, i even never eat fruit at all for this couple of weeks. somemore, i must go to GYM at least once every 2 days. MUST.

study: the purpose i came here is to STUDY, learn and improve my mandarin. until now, i didn't feel any improvement at all. the way i speak, is just about the same like the 1st time i came here. i MUST spend more time for study, start from tomorrow.

job: last week, i just got a new job, a freelance photographer in CM, CityMoments. well, because this have no contract *just have few term and condition*, i need to find another part time job that can give me more money. i always seeking for another new and fresh opportunity to build myself up. i hope, the money i get, i can make it useful and build a very very good portfolio for myself and my future.

GOD: OMG, i just realize, everyday, i forgot to pray and i don't even think that HE is exists. OMG, GOD i'm so sorry bout that, i promise that i will never never ever forget U again.

ok, i promise to myself again start from today and after my Beijing and Hongkong trip, i will "out my money from my pocket" only if it is necessary and important.

If you want things to be different, then make them so! It's never too late to move down a different path in your life. You can't let your age, your income, or your current romantic status hold you back from doing something that you think will make you happy. Every day offers a new opportunity, a new set of choices to make -- and this day is no different. You are working awfully hard at coming up with excuses -- it's wasting time, and it's wasting your energy. You know you can do it, so do it!

Aquarius nov 22, 2008:
Instead of being aloof towards someone you don't like, connect with them today.

In detail:
Being popular can feel like a curse, especially when people you don't really like that much want to spend a lot of time with you. But right now, instead of being aloof with these folks, you need to connect with them. Get it over with. First of all, it won't be nearly as unpleasant as you fear it will be. And secondly, the more time they spend with you, the faster they will come to understand that you aren't the person they thought you were. This is very good news for you.

Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2008

after succeed for the previous show, and now the Glamour is back!!!

The Victoria's Secret Angels have hit the runway in Miami Beach for the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2008 at the Fontainebleau Hotel. like usual, Heidi Klum, Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima, Karolina Kurkova, Miranda Kerr, Selita Ebanks, etc., are walking into a long runway show, sizzling as they strut their stuff for the appreciative audience and an army of photographers, featuring the musical guest by Usher.

100 and Panda

ou yeah, it's been a year since i start my very first blog, which is about november 2007. and this is my post number 100. yeah..... 100.

i got this article in one website *i'm forgot the web address*

By Adela on May 18th, 2007

Once upon a time the female panda was pregnant and when the time came she gave birth to this little fellow…. The new born cub was so small and fragile that he seemed to be more of a cat cub than of a panda one…

Attention, good care and all the time needed were spent so that the little cub would grow healthy and beautiful… In a week, he is already acting as a ” big ” and powerful animal, sniffing around… At 25 days, the cub begins to look as a panda…the specific black spots have already appeared but he’s still blind…

After 30 days, the cub looks like a little pig .. In a couple more days, we have a brand new panda cub able to eat and start to play by his own. When he’s 85 days old, no one knows what he’s up to…. But he still is so funny and he sleeps just like a human baby…

Let’s blow the candle, the cub has reached 3 months old ….

Mammals in the animal species evolve the same way as humans do and still, there are people that never see beyond the obvious, there are people who don’t give a rat’s ass, and there are people who care…

People have fixed ideas that are holding them back. Avoid making that mistake today.

In Detail
There are clues being tossed about you today, but it won't take long for you to complete the picture and solve the mystery. Try not to laugh when everyone around you is still scratching their head while you're finished up early and off doing something more enjoyable. Their problem is that they have fixed ideas about everything -- they can't wrap their mind around the idea that things could be done in a different way. So don't ever take your open-mindedness for granted. It's your best tool, now.
