I feel like I have been here much longer then 14 days. Its no longer foreign or frightening. Woke up to some guy yelling "you will always **** me!" I opened the door and stepped out to hear what was going on but I think I scared him off. Had a hard time getting back to sleep after that, trying to think what that idiot was trying to convey. Not sure if I would have yelled at the guy to shut up. Is it really worth it to get shanked for some dumb chick that is stupid enough to get involved with a roided up freak? Eventually got back to sleep and was out until 930am. I had to be out of there by 11am so I packed my things and headed out for breakfast. Brought my own instead coffee and gave it to the women to make for me. the coffee at the hotel restaurant is such a shot in the dark I was tired o pulling the trigger. Gobbled down the food and jumped on the scooter to send off a couple emails. I ran into the awesome coffee place to grab a great coffee before I headed to Ulu Watu. I know the place is pretty bare bones and I wont have the luxuries I have in Ubud. I enjoyed the iced coffee while I read the depressing news paper about the giant earthquake in Haiti. Sounds like its pretty big news. I jumped in the van with the driver and headed out to Ulu Watu. The drive was a pretty good time. I try to ask odd ball questions to mix it up a bit. Turns out the guy spends $7 a month for a his cell phone. When I told him I spend $90 he almost crapped a brick. Found a hotel for $12 a night and a scooter for $4 a day.. So I jumped on the scooter to find out the town pretty much shuts down in the rainy season. only a few restaurants open before 4pm. Looks like I am going to be eating some Cup-O-Noodle for a while. I found a beach area where the surfing is pretty amazing. The walk down to the surf is pretty exciting. The cliff is essentially covered in shops and restaurants for all the surfers getting in and out of the water. I finally made it to the surf entry point to take a look and its pretty hairy. I found a nice little restaurant that had dug itself into the cliff side. I had a milkshake and started reading when the hawkers crept out of the cliff to offer me an amazing amount of garbage i would never want including 20 minute massage from a toothless smiling women. She just started rubbing my shoulders.I told her no thank you about 30 times before she gave up on me. They came in and out every 15 minutes until the sun started going down. After the sunset I went to the mini store for a beer and some noodles then back to my room, where i spoke to this Japanese man that lived in LA. He kinda looked like someone you might pop up on an amber alert or a newscast warning people about a new serial killer. It was so awkward I cant stand talking to him. I was reading on the porch and he approached me for a little chat. after i rambled on for minutes I purposely waited for him to respond with something, just to hear what would come out of his mouth. An amazing amount of time went by before he could say something. he is a nice enough guy but I had to see what I was dealing with. I usually am a bit more easy going when it comes to peoples awkwardness but this place is making me bitter i think. The constant rejecting of people selling me things makes me have less feeling for people who need sympathy. I cant say its a good things but it is what it is.
