Three ‘Girls’ Musketeers in action

Last month I had a holiday with my office colleagues. We went to Bali. Yes, just three of us. If I remind the process before the holiday can be realized, it was so dramatically. We had already booked the ticket since a half year before, and badly we had to pending it and move it to other month because we had the event at the same date. Each of us faced a lot of life problems, which made we lose the excitement about it. Luckily, we found our spirit back at the moment we had to go. And the last, asked leave day to our boss was not an easy way. Three employees took the same date to leave, well, in a lot of company, that couldn’t be accepted. But thanks to Allah, He made our boss gave his sign to our leave approval.

At Bali, each time became our unforgettable moment. Touring with the rent car, reading the map all time long of the journey, moving from hotel to hotel, whistling every time we want to took a bath, it decide who went to took a bath first, and doing whist again to won the turn to sleep alone in large bed while 2 others had to sleep together. Drove the car to the downhill road, especially for women driver, it was totally not easy thing, but we did it. My friend did it I mean. We also learned to drove, and somehow, the car machine is smoked while we learned to drive. Thanks to the owner to fixed the car while we enjoyed the beach. And believe it or not, I just ate once a day and the rest others, we always ‘nyobek’ which means we ate the breads while waiting the eat time. And still more silly activities that we enjoyed that very much.

Each moment taught us to know each others better; we learned how to face each other. When one of us felt in high emotion, the others tried to calm her. We tried to understand each others. We also learned to make a decision to take together. And absolutely, it full of smiles, laughs, and blessed feels to Allah in every time we saw the beauty of His creation in every place we visited.

Every time I saw sunset and sunrise, slowly I sang Lembayung Bali lyric by Saras Dewi. Yes I was on Bali and saw the sunset directly in here. The song feels so deep for me. I am going to miss those memories very much. Hope we can always be good friends’ girls, friends of life.


Menatap lembayung di langit Bali
dan kusadari betapa berharga kenanganmu
Di kala jiwaku tak terbatas
bebas berandai memulang waktu

Andai ada satu cara
tuk kembali menatap agung surya-Mu
lembayung Bali


(Lembayung Bali - Saras Dewi)
