Ruppiah Millionaires :)

Since S resuscitated the blog i thought I'd do my part as well and give it another boost of vitamins! Let's hope that new posts will make the blog get up and parade in the cyber world! ( fat hopes! No one comes in to read it anymore anyway! ~ Not even me!)

CNY is just about to end in a few days and with the holidays all over and done with, we have to look forward to some other distractions. For the Fems, Bandung will be the next de-stressing destination. That will happen in April and hopefully all will go well.

A friend of mine just got back from that so-called shopping paradise and i was eager to ask her how it all went. Its her first time there , with her 3 kids ( who are more like young adults really). Even tho this April trip will be the 3rd for me , i still like to ask for their opinions. She said that they did not enjoy the shopping at all. She (the same age as us Fems) did not find anything appropriate to buy. She did not get nice T shirts nor working clothes. There were lots of evening dresses there but she is not into those. Her daughter who is 25 i think did not enjoy the shopping either. I was quite shocked cuz i shopped for my daughters and they seemed to like what i got for them.(unless they were just pretending !!) Her 2 sons didn't buy much either , one of them claimed that they aren't original goods!

I did my share of "investigating" and found that some people came back with very good comments and these are the ones who went crazy shopping. ( i know the Fems did!) And then there are those who said that there was NOTHING to buy there!!!! So i guess "one man's meat is another man's poison." For me that last 2 trips there were fruitful. But then i am a compulsive shopaholic so don't take my word for it LOL .

I believe we may have a day of sight seeing this time around and my 1st time there i did visit the volcanoes and it was not bad! Oh , and my friend who just came back from Bandung said that she enjoyed the sight seeing a lot :) As for the food, their personal chauffeur told my friend to never never eat anything raw eg. Gado-Gado. I had a very bad case of food poisoning there on my 1st trip so i was extra careful on my 2nd. They ate a lot of meals at shopping malls and were recommended to eat only steaming hot food. She recommended this place that's situated smack in the middle of a padi field called Sapulidi. Its suppose to be really good so let's make sure we try that , Fems. The brownies there are to die for!!!! Much better than the Amanda ones. In fact she also recommends the Kartika cakes. So let's start the countdown and start saving up those Ruppiahs now!!! :) We will be Ruppiah millionaires by April !!!
