WHAT LESS!
PROMO AT A GLANCE
“seru times yes, ngerasain nyepi in Bali” said Gilang on the sidelines of our chat.
My name is Alia, my best friend often calls me Little Adek, this is because even though I am 20 years old now, but my body is tiny. Right now I and my four best friends, Hena, Gilang, Ilma and Arga are hanging out in the campus cafeteria. At first we want to hang out while browsing the lecture material, but eventually even joking and chattering.
“Nyepi in Bali? Obviously deserted, right? No one sunbathing in kuta, no one ajeb-ajeb in legian. Bali feels dead city” I replied with a manyun. Nyepi is a Hindu holiday celebrated every Saka New Year. All Hindus in Bali do contemplation to return holy. Even non-Hindu citizens tolerate not leaving their homes. Therefore, all activities in Bali are prohibited, except the Hospital.
“Lah then from that deck, here we never mergerasain Nyepi, if we are nyepi time in Bali, we can participate in the original Balinese atmosphere. Cool no?rarely tuh” said Gilang spirit.
“but we can't go anywhere, why trus there?”
“whatever we will do there, must be special. Every trip has a story” said Arga sok sage “ I agree to leave Bali.”
A few days later we actually left for Bali, H-3 Nyepi. We went out to seven men, I, Gilang, Arga, Ilma, Hena, Hilda and Ican. The journey from Malang to Bali is about 12 hours. The trip is quite long, but we always enjoy this road trip, because we can enjoy every beauty offered by nature. We arrived in Bali at midnight. The plan is to take a walk tomorrow.
Our main destination is to Uluwatu, enjoying the beach from the top of the cliff. Before seeing the beauty of the beach, we have to walk through a small forest inhabited by many monkeys. This place is sacred because there is also a temple. Everyone who comes here must wear a cloth provided by the manager.
“Alia, beware!”said Arga surprised me, while holding both my shoulders from behind. he was joking again, really ignorant tuh son know if q emang again goosebumps among many monkeys here, he was joking, because samber is the monkey.
“ngapain anyway? Tuh godain aja Hilda, not you guys deket?” I said back to Arga, Arga's face looks good, we all laughed, I glanced at Hilda who was on the road ahead with Ilma. According to rumors circulating Arga used to sneketin Hilda, but do not know why now Arga even ngejauhin Hilda, but it seems that Hilda actually likes Arga.
“Arga temenin Hilda dong, she wants to meet her best friend tuh.” Ilma Whine
“you're aja temenin, I want to go with the kids, ayok Al!” said Arga while pulling my hand after the other friends. Hilda and Ilma were still standing in front of the entrance gate to the kuta beach. Hilda has an appointment to meet her best friend in Kuta. Boy's best friend, maybe Arga's jealous.
“you're jealous huh Ar? Gegara si Hilda want to go the same way?”ask me when I and Arga again walk alone on the beach.
“Ngapain is also jealous? From nganter Hilda to meet mending Jalan samu” he said while grinning unclear.
The child is not sensitive times yes. Maybe he was jealous or actually did not like Hilda. But his attitude is very tired if you avoid from Hilda, it is kasian. If I think I'm the one who went wrong to Hilda. I kicked Arga's leg slowly. I am close to Arga, many say that we are dating, but yes this is how, I am the same Arga until now only suhabatan.
Hilda went with her best friend, later tonight straight back to the hotel.I feel calm, sometimes I also kind of do not like to Hilda if she is a failure to Arga, Arga, but sometimes also pity that Arga avoid and do not want the decets of Hilda. This afternoon the six of us are still in Kuta. We do not have a definite purpose to go around the Holidays where after this, but obviously from the beginning we really want to enjoy the sunset in kuta as much. After tired of playing on the beach we sit in the sand. For I am the least of them, they bury me with sand to the breast. A lot of people looking and laughing at me happened to be sitting in my position, and this made me really look ridiculous. But I enjoy this –an bully of theirs.we joke and laugh, I like moments like this, feel like we have no burden.
When out of the beach kuta atmosphere is dark, because it is tired and hungry, we finally turn back to the hotel. Later that night the plan is to walk again to enjoy the night in Bali, see the atmosphere of Bali in H-2 Nyepi, before the streets we stop by first at the place of Ilma cement kos. But coming home from that boarding place we changed all our plans. At first we really want to spend time Nyepi in Bali, but outside our expectations, his friend Ilma gave us advice to return to Java before Nyepi, H-1 morning. Because usually when Nyepi many people choose a vacation in Java, the port will queue long, and if we on that day can not cross we will spend time in the harbor. Likewise, if we go home after Nyepi, not necessarily the crossing ship operating with the maximum. We finally returned to Java in the morning. Although disappointed not to enjoy Nyepi in Bali, but we will be more disappointed if not return to Java as soon as possible.
At about 11 o'clock we have arrived at the port of ketapang. There was a feeling of relief and disappointment. Hilda has a proposal to play on the white sand beach or to the crater of Ijen. Because we have all never been to the crater of Ijen we finally made it there. Ijen Crater is a crater lake located at the top of Mount Ijen, included in the Ijen Tourism Park Nature Reserve, Bondowoso Regency, east Java. The journey to Paltuding (the entrance to Ijen crater) is quite long. Left right is just a forest. We're worried that our car's gasoline is running out. There is no house and no house. Even though it was still day but it felt like it was late afternoon, the fog was everywhere. Because we had never been here at all, we like entering the forest and getting lost, he said, I don't know when we will arrive at Paltuding.
