In the blink of an eye, here we are, at the tail end of 2023. Seriously, where did the time go? It feels like just yesterday I was stuck in the whirlwind of 2019, a time when my travel plans were multiplying, and life seemed almost too good to be true. Ah, the days of dreaming big! I used to have this ritual of evaluating my resolutions as the year wound down, jotting down all the exciting things I wanted to do or achieve in the coming year. But then, the pandemic hit, and it flipped my world upside down. Suddenly, I found myself morphing into a whole new version of myself--disorganized, unmotivated, and dare I say, a bit slothful. Lol, never in my dream! 2023 arrived, and I was still navigating this maze of change. It wasn't the typical fresh start I'd anticipated. Instead, it was like I had to learn to dance to a completely different rhythm--one that I wasn't quite familiar with.

Currently reading This is NOT a Book by Keri Smith has made me realized how ideas can pop up anytime, anywhere, in any state of mind if you get the right stimulus.

After visiting Jeeva Klui and Gili Trawangan, we headed south to explore Lombok with Novotel. novotel was located in Kuta beach, Lombok. This was our (my) first time visiting Novotel Lombok. We arrived in Novotel at 3 p.m. We were given a cool yet refreshing melon juice as a welcome drink. Well, it was sooooo refreshing considering the weather was very hot. Thought the sun had been showing off its power to us all day long. and we're running out of sweat. no kidding. :p The Novotel grounds were magnificent! It was like a combination of Aztec-print. Little trails meanders, statues, and tress were everywhere. Everywhere you looked, you could definitely see something. We booked for a normal standard room rate. Unfortunately at that time, all standard room was fully booked. We shocked assuming we would not get a chance to stay there. Thanks the staffs who were so helpful and professional in dealing this kind of situation. You know what? They gave us another bigger, more private ...
