Adios peeps!
Minggu kemarin, tidur gw damai2 aja, mimpi aneh ato serem juga nggak..dan tiba2 di suatu sore yang cerah ini datanglah 1 hal yang paling gw takutkan! Dipindahin ke bagian legal. Doeng!
As u know syarat utama masuk legal adalah anak kuliahan hukum. That's me! Tapi sebagai anak hukum, gw justru takut kalo ampe ditempatin di legal. Find it wierd? Absoulutely! *woi ngapein juga lo kuliah hukum!*
I hope I can be a better person yah. Amin.

ferry trip to singapore
Today I went to singapore by ferry from 'batam center' harbour.
Before this trip i've been departed to another islands by ferry. On my first trip I went to bali and my second trip I went to sumatra. But the difference was on my previous trip I go by car with my family.
So today is my first time to travel by myself. It only takes 60 minutes to get there.
Things you have to notice when you'll take a ferry, as follows :
- ferry companies, departing schedule and harbour
There are many ferry companies in batam that provide this service, for example batam fast, sindo ferry, etc. You have to make sure their company name, which harbour used for departing and their schedule.
I try batam fast, because there are many money changers that sell their tickets. It is an open ticket, so your departure depends on your check in time in the harbour.
When I arrived in batam center harbour, I have to check in on their counter to get the quickest departure time. At that time, there are some promo, if you buy round trip tiket (btm-sg-btm) on the spot you'll get :
- 30 % discount with showing your citilink ticket or bca debit card
- 20 % discount with showing your garuda ticket
This ship have 2 deck, upper deck (open air/ w.o. air conditioner) and lower deck (with air conditioner) >> depends on the boat type. You can choose when you board on the ship. Their schedule is pretty on time, so make sure you wait in their lounge/waiting room before its boarding time.
- queueing
My fellow indonesian, we have to realized that we have serious issue in queueing!
We need to queque (almost) every single day.
If you never travel by ship/cruise before, allow me to remind you that similar procedures required when you'll going abroad by plane. We have to queue when we'll check in on ferry's counter then another queque when the baggage checking and the longest queque is on the immigration.
I can say that queueing in batam center is quite frustating, especially when you'll do the ferry's check in. In this phase, we have to queque for almost 15 minutes! One person can go in a group (w.o limitation) so I suggest you NOT to queueing behind this person. The officers are only 3 persons and they have to fill in our immigration cards. The company provide specific lines to queque (for check in only or walk in customer). In my opinion, when the queque are crowded, its regulation doesn't exist anymore.
Basically similar procedures applied in singapore, but i think it is more effective there.
- Last thing. If you go on a group, make sure that your travel buddies are ON TIME!
I think that's important too :D
Happy weekends everyone.
Cheers
