Have you read it all?
Okay so here it goes...
Jakarta hasn't been that nice to me anymore. All of those craziness, traffic jams, and also the people, I'm sorry to say, but I'm tired of all of them. I have to clear my mind, I need to go somewhere where people won't find me, where I feel like I don't need to think, a place where I just need to breathe, and have a pleasant time. One day, I saw my friend's tweet on Twitter, her name is Erfiza Najma, but I called her Najim. She had the same problem, so there I go, replied her tweet and asked her to go to somewhere with me, nothing fancy, all we need was just two pieces of clothes, small amount of money, that's it. We'll figure out what we'll do when we get there. And we did it, we went to Yogyakarta, by train. It's a funny thing, we haven't gone that far using the train, no air-con, little comfy seats, and there we go. Sitting, talking, sleeping, taking pictures, and laughing about some odd things we found on our way. Okay for your information, Najim and I are no familiar with Yogyakarta, I just been there for only two times, back when I was a little innocent girl, and the second time was for only 2 hours, my highschool study tour. Najim? Even worse, she's been to Yogyakarta only for the highschool study tour. So when we got off the train and the station, we were like,"well, uhm okay, finally, we arrived, but.... uhmm.. where should we go? Even to Malioboro" we looked like total idiots! ahhahaha, until some Becak guy, offered us a lift for 10thousand rupiahs. Which is pretty expensive, not in Jakarta, it was super cheap! LOL. When we arrived at Malioboro, we went to the McDonalds instead, we were looking for an outlet, since both my cell or Najim's cell reached low battery. Because we had to meet my another friend, Annisa Nurmala Sari, but we called her Bahar. She's coming to Yogyakarta from Semarang, she's going to school there. But, no outlets were working, so we're hoping to God, Bahar received our last text and our last hope. Thank GOD! Bahar came along, she found us! So after we met Bahar, three of us going to Bahar's house using becak. Yeap one becak and three of us. I feel pity for the guy that pedaling the becak. LOL. When we got to the Bahar's house, Najim hastily going to the bathroom, she felt filthy because we're sitting on the train for 9 hours. Me? Don't ask, I didn't take a bath. I was just too excited. But then Bahar made a confession, she said that her house was going to be full, because all of her father's friends gonna stay there. Najma and I were looking at each other, wondering where we'll gonna sleep that night. But then, Bahar said that her father's gonna pay for us to stay in the hotel. We were like,"Okay that'll solve it". That night, Bahar's father invited us to have a dinner near the Keraton, and this time we didn't have to take becak, since Bahar's car was takin us there.
One thing led to another, and we arrived at the hotel Bahar was talking about, we were... uhmm, pretty shock, it was MELIA. A famous five stars hotel, okay we didn't expect that. We were expecting some cheap hotels that just provide beds? hahaha. Then we had a wonderfull sleep, all three of us. I woke up earlier, had a chat with best pal yet kinda crazy about trips like this, Samuel Evander, or Evan. I can tell that he was jealous. (ADMITTT IT!LOL) I couldn't get back to sleep, while Najim and Bahar are still in their Dreamland. So I decided to take a bath (at last) and went downstairs to had a cup of coffee and tweet about my trip so far. Some of my friends are pretty jealous, since they're stuck with Jakarta's Madness. 8 o'clock, Najim and Bahar still not awake. So I went upstairs again and woke them up, Najim was pretty easy, but Bahar... Gosh I wish I could just dragged her to the bathroom. Lol, she even received call from her mom with her eyes closed and still glued to the bed.
See what I was saying? Haha. Okay that day we went to 5 places, Prambanan, Kraton Ratu Boko, Rumah Teletubbies and Taman Pintar (fyi:Evan told me about this Taman Pintar place, it was like some discovery park for little kids, but it was fun anyway!) and also we went to alun-alun selatan which they have this myth that said, if you could walk across two bayan trees blindfolded, all your wishes come true (it's a myth! But we tried it anyway haha)
See? We had a wonderful time! But here's the prob, Najim and I was planning to go home that night (Tuesday Night) so we arrived on Wednesday Morning and we'd be able to go to school (yea rite) haha, but it was a public holiday, so all the trains were so expensive, the cheap one was 350k rupiah, while using an airplane next morning was 355k rupiah. Okay, we made our choice, airplane it is. BUT..... There's this but... Bahar will be going back to Semarang that night, therefore we didn't have any place to stay, but thanks to Najim, she has couple of friends in Yogyakarta. We thought, we'll figured it out later, when night comes (idiot isn't it?) Haha so then after we separated with Bahar, we went to McDonald's on Jalan Sudirman, which is McDonald's is the only place we knew that opened for 24 hours. When we got to the McDonald's we met out highschool friend, Tika, she went to Yogyakarta for college, and she brought her friends, they're cute I must say. LOL. This is what you'll say when you're single for 7 months. Haha. But they had to leave. So we're back with ourselves. But then Najim's friends met us at KFC across the mcDonald's. They are Desta, Aga and Acil. We talked and talked and talked until, it's already 1 o'clock in the morning. WOW. Aga and Acil offered us a place to take a nap, their boss's dorm room. It's an empty room, their boss neve used it. We couldn't stay at Desta's because it's just too far from the Airport. And then Aga and Acil took us to the dorm room by their motorbikes. I must say, it was wicked! Super nice, we were able to see what's it like to be outside Jakarta, inhaling the clear air. Gosh, priceless! When we got to the dorm room, we couldn't sleep, remembering we'll be leaving at 9 o'clock. So we're just having convo.
Next up, the sun was rising, can't believe we'll be leaving in a couple of hours. Gosh if only, if only, I don't need to leave. I don't need to be back in Jakarta's Madness. I WOULD. Thanks to all those people whom I mention in this post. Without you guys, this trip wouldn't be that cool!
