Flashback - Bali

I went to Bali during the recent Vesak Holiday in May. Since some of my friends complained that my blog is lacking pictures, thus here I am posting just some of the photos taken in Bali. I tried not to put those that has been posted by some of my friends in their blogs or Friendster or Facebook...whatever. So here are some of them... Apologies for no captions... lazy laa... Let the pictures speak for themselves...




























I think I like Bali. I fell in love with Ubud, love the scenery of the paddy fields on the way to Ubud, love the Pasar Ubud and all the merchandise there, love the art galleries along the road (bought a piece myself - an abstract), love the creativity of the Balinese and am so amazed at their crafting skills. Also, impressed with their devotion towards their beliefs.

Deep in my heart, I have made up my mind... I would like to go to Bali again and specifically to Ubud. I want to rent a villa with small stream and a private pool and to wake up in the morning with the fresh air from the greens of the paddy fields and picturesque view of the paddy terrace... and my other half hugging me in the open balcony... (phew! what a dreamer I am, eh?)

Well, as they say... Life is but a dream... so a Dreamer I will be... :)

Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
When I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
When I feel blue in the night
And I need you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam
I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine
Anytime night or day
Only trouble is, gee whiz I'm dreamin' my life away
I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam

Arhh...! This Everly Brothers song spontaneously comes to my mind every time I dream... and I have been dreaming a lot lately... really got to wash my face lah! Wake up! Wake up!

Kalambicara has to quit now or else I will be embarassing myself here...

Beach of Paradise

I wish that I am on an island
All by myself
Reading a good book
While lazing on a hammock
By the sea
With the soft breeze
Blowing sweetly to my face
The blue sky and cottony clouds
As the ceiling above me
Soft white sand underneath my hammock
So velvety and plush
The sound of waves beating the shore
Form music to my ears
A rhythm that soothe just like a lullaby
The crystal clear sea water
So shallow and transparent
I am contented... so joyous is my heart
My innersoul in great peace
O' what a wonderful feeling
At my Beach of Paradise
Somewhere over the rainbow!

O' how I wish this will never end...and I can go on dreaming and imagining... A picture so vivid... forming in my head and I know for sure... very sure... That I now really need a break!

Kalambicara is just awaken from her day dreaming...huhu!
