Goa 1

Goa 2










I know mostly of my friends and my families would say, I stayed too long at bali for 25 days. The reason why was that I went there. My thought was " Temporary being away and having a chance to speculately a lot of about myself." I am Admitted that I dont really happy myself at Singapore due to shock the culture of the people and a lot of discrimation to me. When I arrived to Singapore. My mom in law and I were not getting along due to different thinking of our living standard. Karen's mom has a stronger personally as a eldest woman due to their culture. Karen's mom realized that I was working hard and not happy at work. I lost 15 Kg = 20 pounds. A lot of people said, I am look like shinny and not look like heathy, so Karen's mom and I are doing try to be best to adjustment to being a better together as possble as we can. Mostly eldest Chinese people will not getting a grant for change their belief or don't accept to be mistake due to save their face! bcs they are eldest to know what s going on and they are taken advance of younger people to respect their eldest people in Singapore culture. In few months ago, my mom in law realized that I was not happy myself. She was changed to be better with me to be relationship. At The Chinese people believe a lot of different of myths for their chinese culture of stardard lifestyle than American People do. Anyway, I would like to talk about my vacation and see real indonesia people' s living standard. Now, I know what to do for better in my life at Singapore.

June 24th: Arrived to Bali at 945pm from Singapore. All four baliese Deafies came to Airport for see me. I saw taxi man was drunk a little, I was worrying about his driving. He seems handle himself for drop me off at hotel. I paid him 70,000 rps = $7.00 dollars. At 10 45pm, My two deafies baliese and I went to see Hard Rock Cafe at main doors for meeting my sister in law and his hubby, Patrick, and his brother and his brother' s wife.

At 930am in the morning, I went to meet my sister in law, Jann andher hubby, Patrick, his brother and his brother's wife for surfing session. They got a taxi for go to halfway beach, so I got a rent moped to show them to meet me at half way beach. patrick borrowed my board, and patrick seems really excited and me too.

I showed him how to correct the paddle in the water and do duck under the waves. he got a little better in few mins. I showed him how to do sit on the board, read the waves goes left or right. I caught the waves, I felt I am alittle rusty. in an hour later, Patrick started to tired to paddle. I teased him " when you are in pool, you seem have no problem to do swimming, while I was having hard time to swimming... now, I am in beach, I have no problem to do paddle and smooth, You had a hard time to paddle with board." , Kenichi joking. patrick laughed at me. he knew that I am right talking. We had been in water for one and 45 mins. his wife needs to go to hotel and get ready for airport. When I said good bye to Patrick and Jann. Jann says, be careful at bali, and patrick says "thank you for teach me" he was hug their arms alittle hard. He seems happy to learn to surf!!!! It made me feel happy to be spend time with him.
