My brother, sisters and I want to spend our holiday in Bali. We had a
planning of this trip since last week of August 2008. On holiday, It was the
last week of December 2008. We started the trip. Each of us drove the car at
least three hours. We Left Solo on Saturday afternoon. We also didn’t forget to
bring our camera. On Sunday morning we arrived in Gilimanuk. We would take a
rest at my uncle’s house for one day. We could see a monkey in my uncle’s
house, he liked take care of monkey. He also had some rabbits and hamsters.
When we arrived at his house, my uncle’s family had prepared breakfast. We had
rice and “Ayam Betutu”; really It was very hot but delicious.
In Monday we went to Denpasar. First we visited “Sanur” beach. As it
was still early in the morning we could see the sunrise. We also prayed
some moment on the sand then we looked for a hotel because we have no
relative who stayed there.
On that day we also visited “Kuta” beach, “Garuda Wisnu Kencana” and
also “Sukawati” market. We had our lunch on the way when we felt hungry. At
night we also enjoyed “Barong” dance. Something that we never forgot was taking
pictures at any tourist resort.
On the last day we visited “Sangeh”, where we could see many monkeys.
Many of them are still wild and they sometimes bite visitor, from here we went
straight to “Bedugul” lake, we went around it by a small boat to see some
temples at the other side. Unfortunately, it was raining so hard that we all so
wet. We changed our clothes there because we could also buy clothes at WHT shop
near the lake. Really it was so wonderful that I promise I want to visit Bali

Written by Pratama Lysa Hapsari
Tuesday,
September 30th, 2008
It was takbiran night. It
was also my birthday, and nothing happened. Or I had thought nothing would
happen, but I was wrong.
That night, I was watching television with my family when I heard someone lit
fireworks in my front yard. I peeped trough my window glass but could see
nothing. It was very dark outside. Then I thought it had to be my cousins who
lit the fireworks. Then I plopped down on my sofa again and tried to
concentrate on the television since my mind raced with disappointment that no
one gave something special on my birthday. I shrugged, it was almost the end of
the day and I became pessimist.
Five minutes later my mobile beeped. It was a text from my
friend asking me to come out. Wondering what was going on, I grabbed my jacket
and hurried to the front door. I was surprised to see her bring a bag full of
firework and fire drills. Next I was surprised to see my other friend come out
from the darkness. She brought a beautiful birthday cake on her hands. Oh my
God! I shrieked. Then they gave the cake to me who was too stunned to say
anything. I realized I was blushing furiously because my whole family was
watching. Not to mention my neighbors too!
A plain day, or I thought it was before, turned out to be one of the greatest
moment in my life. I didn’t even know how to describe what I felt. Happy was
the simplest word.
