Last week, starting from December 2 until 7, my friends and I had a backpacking trip to three countries in Southeast Asia; Singapore, Cambodia and Malaysia. Overall, the trip was planned like this:. Jakarta - Singapore : December 2 morning, Singapore - Johor Bahru - Melacca - Kuala Lumpur: December 3 afternoon by bus (on the road only). Kuala Lumpur - Phnom Penh: December 4 at the dawn, Phnom Penh - Siem Reap: December 4 afternoon by bus, Siem Reap - Phnom Penh: December 6 morning by bus, Phnom Penh - Kuala Lumpur: December 6 night, Kuala Lumpur - Jakarta: December 7 night. And alhamdulillah, everything went good based on our planning. :) As we've reckoned before, we ran so much, almost everywhere. Run girls run! :p

Though it is not the first time I visit Singapore and Malaysia, this journey gave much more different impression since we've faced some difficulties in the making :) Thank you my friends, even though the trip passed by really fast, it definitely taught me many things.
You might wonder what we did in the bus (because we got so many buses during the trip), well, I actually tried to contemplate about life and how it will go on later, but not so long after, I felt asleep. Hehe
Anyway, this sentence popped up back and forth in my mind,
"If you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it is yours. If it doesn't, it never was ..."
I've ever read the same with this in her blog, hi
Fenty! :)
