Some days can be tough. Wow. Believing in everything for a reason can be really tough at times, too. But, hey, we can always put our bathing suit on, let our hair down, wear comfy shoes and spin around like there’s no tomorrow.

When Bali is far away and our computers are right in front of us.

Hello, yoohoo.

There is magic in (inspired) action is a sentence that comes to mind whenever I feel like writing a book and can’t seem to write one sentence at the same time. So first, I do any kind of cleaning in the house that’s been put on hold ~ because, hello, yoohoo ~ I make a good cup of coffee, think about the best sweet bite, have the coffee, have the bite and, finally, meet the screen.

If you stare at the screen long enough, you start to actually see its rolling eyes.

Wearing a bathing suit ~ just in case ~ is one of the best feelings ever. Especially when technically you have no plan that you know of for you to get into any kind of water this second, but this comes to mind. We’re supposed to leave the island (Gili, Trawangan, Bali) for the real life, for the big continents. Luckily, the way to reality is by a boat we all have super fun and get wet on. Luckily x2, I have my bathing suit on. I knew it!

Spinning time.

Careful what you wish for in the dreamland, because it just might happen in the real world. We wanted to stay longer. On the island. In the dreamland. Wink. Therefore, we all got to float on water for about two more hours before stepping back onto the continent. The boat was unable to park. We all wanted to delay ~ somehooow ~ the arrival back on the continent, so there we go, said the stars. Just kidding, there were too many boats at the docks and there was no place for our boat to park, but you get the flow of events.

The memory of the boat full of unfamiliar people from all over the world and some familiar people I’d met just days before, on the ocean, at night, somewhere on another planet, always makes me smile. Makes the butterflies in my stomach fly.

Can you believe Major Lazer’s Get Free was on?

The song is beautifully constructed. Everything is. We all swayed on the swaying boat, under the clear night sky, watched the stars, talked about the universe, listened to music.

Real is rare. Let’s dream the dream and love the real, wear a bathing suit ~ only we know about ~ underneath the clothes and all, but also ~ know ~ that dreams don’t work unless we do.

Yoohoo.
