Initially, I wanted to shop for clothes to be worn at Malaysia here so I didn't bring back lots of clothes from Cork. Since I was kinda disappointed as it didn't met my expectations, I ended up buying nothing and had to wear the same set of clothes throughout my 1.5months of summer holiday. LOL. Come to think of it, apaaaarrraaa I should buy at least something there. Oh lupe plak one of the reason why my mood to shop was robbed was because I checked my results the night before we left for Bandung.
When we were there, food is one of our greatest concern as we tend to be paranoid to everything! Haha..there's this one time we settled for a little restaurant for lunch and ordered set of ayam penyet. We were hungry, the food came and we were ready to gobble down them chicken until one of us decided to bring up the story about Indonesian use mice instead of chicken!! Some of us surrendered our plate and chose to be hungry and later that night we settled for McD. We were supposed to go to this quite nice restaurant but Pak Kuncoro told us the food was not worth the price. Cetttt ntah-ntah dia malas nak hantar. Hmmphh!
Later that night we went around Chihampelas. I think that place is suitable for the guys. No pictures though coz I was seriously out of mood at Bandung. The things there are quite affordable. We went there again the next day to find some stuff.
The next day we walked from out hotel towards the city just to kill time, take pictures and stopby at any factory outlet aimlessly since we don't have transport that morning. Went to Kartika Sari and had some of the traditional kuih and bought some brownies.
A less exclusive Hard Rock Cafe - Kat Rock Cafe
Ahli Gigi- seen a lot by the streets. They aren't qualified dentist but they do have some knowledge in dentistry. Senang je kan? Takyah susah-susah nak spend 5 years to study

the traditional kuih we tried but unfortunately I can't remember any of their names :(
We also tried riding on "angkut" sorta like a van, a cheaper transport option. But the thing with angkut is it goes on one straight street so if you were to divert to another road or something you had to transit to another angkut at the junction. It costed 1000Rp per pax and if you are unlucky, you might end up in a super packed angkut.
the angkut. when we were walking along the street there were tonnes of angkut stopped to pick us up. you just have to practice shaking your head and say no
the "police traffic" again, you don't have to spend years to train to be a policeman. just wear that jacket, sit in the middle of the street and off you go. you are in control!
Oh we stayed at Puri Tomat Hotel, costed 225,000Rp per night (around RM90 or so?). It was supposed to be room for 3 person but it can of course fit all 4 of us coz they had 1 double and 1 single bed. Cam biasa lah we combined the bed. They had pretty decent tv channels too. Malam tu siap layan ong bak lagi.
From Bandung to Jakarta we took a rented car which costed 70,000Rp per pax. Initially we planned to take Cipaganti, something like van camtu. Costed 10-20000 Rp cheaper but we thought, ahh, the driver could send us right at the door step where else Cipaganti we had to stop at their station.
Up next is our first spa experience and karaoke. Phuh malas sungguh mau update ni but I wanna get it all done asap. Rugi je nanti kalau dah lupa tua-tua takleh review :P
