Jalan Legian and the Driver,

So it's the last night in Bali (and yes I will posts more Bali posts when I have ample of time to do so) , we decided to check out one of the places that every tourist must go to ,

Jalan Legian ! 

We went for the SkyGarden Club at Jalan Legian which we had to pay 150,000 IDR for entry. The club had about 7 floors of different song genre to burst your ears with. Oh , and I just grabbed a tin of coke which I ended up only opening when we were heading out as I was afraid of anyone 'spiking' my drink and cause I don't drink alcohol so I wouldn't want any spilling into my drink. 

It was really interesting to see all foreigners enjoying themselves at one place. There were a few ugly 'drunk' moments we came across with though but that's kinda normal in any other club anyways. Oh yeah ! It opens from 9 till late so don't come so early. Haha. There were many clubs around though like the Bounty which had like a foam party. And a few live performances around the area. But best is for you to do your own research if you really love clubbing cause we basically went for the experience and to see how the 'club culture' is here :) 

Anyways , 
We left the Club around 2 and took a cab home , where we met our first ever Muslim taxi driver. He was the most soft spoken driver we've came acrossed with and taught us a lot on halal food and mosques around Kuta as he was driving us back home. 

One thing super adorable though was that he was treating us like his own daughters , asking us why we had tattoos (which was actually henna) and why aren't we heading back for Ramadhan (which we actually are tomorrow). I somehow rather found him inspiring in a way cause it's rare to see Muslims being so caring and soft to younger Muslims rather than being aggressive. 

This might be the most un-directional post I have ever written but I thought that one day I might wanna look back to tonight as part of a memory in Bali that touched me :)

Day 1 : Bali

So it's the end of alevels ! And time for #fourgirlsinbali !

We took the cab from Shah Alam , booked under Sunlight Cab. Which took only about 35 minutes to arrive at Klia 2 ! Oh and we left around 6.15 am :) 
That's Sarah, Dils and Raina (from left to right) 

We arrived about 3 hours later and the weather here was superb ! Around 28degrees only. Phew. Took a cab for 100,000 IDR to arrive to our first destination , our hotel , Serela Hotel Kuta. Made a deal with our taxi driver to pick us up about 5 and headed on to the most beautiful place to eat by the beach , 
Jimbaran Bay :) 


We arrived at the perfect timing and paid our driver 200,000 IDR back and fourth to Kuta Beach after the dinner. Our meal , which we ordered the Red Snap (cooked with bumbu Bali) and Cumi-Cumi (deep fried squids) was delicious ! And overall with a few mineral water and fruits for dessert was only about 504,000 IDR ! 


After the dinner itself , we decided to take a stroll by the stores nearby the Kuta Beach for the first time :) made booking and paid deposit to head to Nusa Lembongan tomorrow by speed boat. 
It's definitely better to negotiate the price here rather than booking online to me personally. It costs us only 350,000 IDR back and forth to Lembongan (and will definitely update on how the trip will be tomorrow ! ) 


I have to go , cause I need to figure out on how to swim with hijab since I forgot to bring a swimming cap and hijab swimwear. Hahahaha. First time going to the beach with hijab ever. 

Well , that's it so far. First day of the Four Girls in Bali. With loves.

#FitHijabGirls

Eventhough I am wearing hijab,
I can never see myself as a sloppy or fat girl who doesn't care about how I look. 
Wearing hijab should not make any girl feel unattractive ! You should always work on yourself, nothing or nobody should stop you from doing that. Not even you yourself.
On #FitHijabGirls , 

It doesn't matter what you wear or how you look , you should be as fit as any other fit girl out there ! ( I personally like to include fun and adventurous too ! ) 


I personally am aiming to just get toned *if possible like the picture above* At the same time I wanna try on achieving it without going on a diet :) (cause I'm leaving soon so going on a diet is probably possible in UK later insyallah) . Apparently after reading a few articles, it is possible just that it comes with a lot of exercise ! 

And yes , it's my bucketlist to have a toned body without showing it to any guy in the world, and maybe on the first night of the wedding I'd be like , 

'Honey , look how beautiful I have kept my body for you ;)))' 

Hahaha yes I have wild imaginations but if it keeps me motivated , why not ? 

#RESPECT 

I personally have never agreed with girls who show their body so easily on social media // network especially since they've worked for hours in the gym ! ( Don't get me wrong ,do as you wish with your body , it's just my personal opinion )

On the Hilarious First Time Online Shopping ,

Hahahaha yes , it's my first time online shopping after 3 years and 3 years ago I only shopped once online ! So instead of the usual,
'Online shopping , just a few clicks away', it took me an hour to shop just 3 scarves online !!! 


And my family had a good laugh at it as when my sister uploaded the picture in the family whatsapp group ! Stress Kays online shop ! Never had to know TAC code .... 


Was planning to just buy a few scarves online under sale from TudungPeople as study break , worst decision as study break ever. Hahaha. Anyhow , there's not much to be said. Really. It's just that

I REALLY SUCK AT ONLINE SHOPPING ! 

It's cause most of my money is spent on good coffee and food anyways. Haha. 

Oh forgot about this part , 

My dad tried to protect me in the whatsapp group from being 'attacked' cause he was afraid I'll get all emotional near exams. Hahahahaha oh wells. Definitely an experience I'll never forget ! 
And definitely not gonna online shop till exams are over ( exam stress is enough already). *goodlaughs* 


PS ; my sister owns an online shopping website and I have even modelled for her clothes, yet I absolutely have no idea on how to online shop ! Hahahahahaha !
