holiday resolution!!!!

I can't believe that the last time I wrote a blog was 11 September 2008.. Gosh! what happened? two and a half years already... *sigh

anyway, this blog is about "me and my journey".. so let me tell you this..
I really really need a break for a real vacation... when I opened my FB, most of the posts were titled "year-end holiday or what so ever"... and me? haha.. just stuck here in Jakarta or Bogor... or
Bandung.. well, not bad I think,,

2010 was actually not bad at all in terms of "trip" .. I went to Singapore,Tokyo, Hoi An (an ancient Beauty of Vietnam), Pattaya (and its Alcazar show), and Lombok... see? not bad at all right? considering that all trips were paid by my office.. and even I got paid for this (is it legal to say it this way:p...haha)

but you know, when you spend a week in a beautiful places I mention above, but you combine it with work, meeting and all pressures, can we define it as a "vacation"? yeah, of course the answers is NO..
so.. I desperately need a vacation without the word of "work" ..
and here is my holiday resolution for 2011:

a) visit Bali.. yes, just spend 3-4 days in Bali with the boys (my hubby n my son);

b) visit Malang and Batu (I've never been to Batu Night Spectacular/ BNS, so just rent one bungalow for me and my sisters' family.. then we'll rock "Batu" City, go to Kota Bunga/ City of Flower, Jatim Park and others tourist sites; and

c) visit Semarang and Central Java.. yup... I need to visit my relatives in Semarang and Jogja.. and for this,, I might need another 4 days..

d) visit Bosscha Observatory.. yuuup, this is my wishlist since 2000:((

and the most important thing in 2011 is.. I need a good book.. inspiring one or at least can make me laugh or even cry.. any idea?


so, that's all.. very "local" .. I know.. I don't put Singapore, Thailand or Australia on my vacation list.. coz I just need "Quality time".. and I love Indonesia..
I can rock another spot as complimentary trips from my office.. can't wait to have the chance to visit Seoul actually...

so, welcome 2011.. holiday... here I come..
(cross my fingers to rock Bali first!!)
