Say something

I ve been listening to this song over and over again this past few months and I really cant get over it. Its really that good. This song really brings back memories and also how much I love a girl  but we can just only be friends. Its sad sometimes but I guess what is meant to be is meant to be. I don't want to go over those boundaries and spoil the friendship of what we have now. I know you readers out there would be saying u kinda deserve it since you don't want to do a thing to get out of the comfort zone but its not like I haven't tried before. I did and got friendzoned but until today I still love her. Some people would think that the things I do for her kinda shows I want to make her like me but its not that all. To me, the things I do just gives me happiness and I really don't expect much in return. I don't expect her to suddenly fall in love with me with what I have done. I am just doing what I can do in my best abilities to make everyone happy around me. I have been that guy that has always been a bad liar and always don't feel really nice to keep secrets from someone unless I have to. In this case, I have to. In fact, I already tried to cover up most of my tracks so she will never find out what I really did. Its those secrets that I will take to my grave and regretting at the same time but it has to be done to preserve that friendship. I know I don't have good looks or even possess the best body shape but that is not the end of the world I guess. There are always ways of changing. Afterall I guess I have stumbled and fall and im still learning to love and still have lots to learn

Anyways just a random rant I have... and to end it ill put the last part of the lyrics in


And I will swallow my pride
You're the one that I love
And I'm saying goodbye

Say something, I'm giving up on you
And I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you

Wantilan Bali 


Tried this place over the weekend, never knew there was a balinese place around Hawthorn. The moment you get into the restaurant you feel that comfortable ambience and the classiness of it. I actually miss food in Bali so it was pretty much a good thing that i manage to find one out here in Melbourne. 


 The menu 


The bar and the decorations in the restaurant 


The nice table setting and the menu  


Ok, so we started off with drinks and the one on the right was the Es Teh while the one of the left was the Kopi Bali which in my opinion was one from a box and the other was watered down coffee.. didnt really like  it 



Next up, the food!! It came pretty quickly and the first dish was the Be Celeng Guling which was Balinese suckling pig. I miss the Babi guling in Bali, this one on the other hand, although tasty but the crackling was so hard. Instead of being crispy, it felt like i was biting on a rock. and on the side was sweet potato rice which was just normal rice with sweet potato in it. Nothing really special. 



Then came the Wantilan bebek goreng. This one i would recommend as it was pretty crispy and tasty. Although cant be compared to the one in Bali but for Australian standards i would say that it was pretty good especially with rice. 



The gado -gado was just a simple vege dish i guess. Should have gotten the plecing kangkung instead. At least the gado gado still lived up to its expectations but nothing to shout about really. 



All in all, had a pretty good meal for Aussie standards. This place is a little bit pricey but with good service and ambience it levels it out. Food wise i would say it was a decent meal but if you have never tried Balinese food before, its a good place to try it. I give Wantilan Bali a 6/10 

Have a great week!!

Gypsy and Pig 


So basically this is my first review after so long, so here goes... 

Me and my friends went to this place called Gypsy and Pig which was in Melbourne in Hardware Lane. Apparently this shop was owned by a Japanese chef that used to work in a top class restaurant but he went for a long holiday and when he came back he decided to open up this shop. 

I must say this place is abit pricey for students which is about in the range of 20-30 dollars per meal but the quality of the food is definately worth the money. The pork that is used for the dishes here are not ordinary pork but black pork or also known as kurobuta in Japanese which is prized for its juiciness, flavour and tenderness which definately what i had in the dishes i ordered here. 


The setting and menu 



the picture above is the picture of the chef and his assistant. This shop isnt really that big so it feels very cozy and the ambience was great. If you want to try out this place, u might wanna book in advance cause they really dont have that many sits. 

The different type of sauces and the one in the winnie the pooh honey pot is the so called "nectar" for the katsu or fried pork loin 


the stewed pork belly with half boiled egg. $25


The katsu / pork loin.$27 for the whole set 

I would really suggest coming here if you are really into katsu. The quality is definately there and the flavours from the ones i had were just awesome!!!! i give it a 9/10.

Thoughts


Sometimes the beach tends to have this calming effect on me.... It gives me that time to relax and think what i have achieved throughout this few semesters...
And i must say, i am at least improving, hopefully i can do better for my next job and be a greater person than who i ever was....

Sometimes i really try my best, but it never turns out that way and it can be pretty demoralizing.....
but at least i learned and understand of how this world can really be when we let our guard down....
At least from these events i can learn to stand on my own two feet and said that i have done this and in a matter of time i will accomplish whatever i have not done well in..

As the sun set, i see myself appreciating more of this world rather than the people living on this earth...
Life as we know it depends on how we treat the land we live on, its not always about earning that cash and be the most ruthless in the world and by dominating this world, where will u bring those earthly processions when it ends when we are still around?
Who are we to pollute this beautiful planet that we live on.....
Maybe one day, earth will just turn into Mars, a planet that could have had live forms...
So cheers to life and mother nature who created this beautiful scenery for us to witness and be amazed by it...

Without you

Thought i just share this with everyone :)


Bucket full of tears

babe you know Im here

Im here waiting



Close your precious eyes

and just realize
Im still fighting



For you to be with me

and sit under this tree
and we can watch the sunrise,
we can watch the sunrise



Wake up feel the air that Im breathin

I cant explain this feeling that Im feelin
I wont go another day without you



I know it feels 

like no ones around
but baby you’re wrong



Just get rid of the fear

promise that Im here
I’ll never be gone



So baby come with me

we can fly away and we can watch the
stars shine



And baby you can be my love

Oh



Wake up feel the air that Im breathin

I cant explain this feeling that Im feelin
I wont go another day without you
Without you 



Hold on I promise its gets brighter

and when it rains I’ll hold you even tighter
I won’t go another day without you
Without you 



This is me tonight

no more games and no more lies
and I know its right
cause of the way you look into my eyes
and when I hold you tight
the worries disappear Im glad you’re in my life



Wake up feel the air that Im breathin

I cant explain this feeling that Im feelin
I wont go another day without you



Hold on I promise its gets brighter

and when it rains I’ll hold you even tighter
I won’t go another day without you
Without you 



And I won’t go another day,

Without you
