Unlike my previous birthdays, I post this bday news kinda late… well, I admit I wasn’t too much into blogging lately…it has been several months since I didn’t insert any meaningful posts…the skripsi thing consumed my time, next to the wrecked computer and laptop (could u imagine how did I survive without them both? I am amazed, myself, hahaha…)
Anyways, this year I didn’t have any feastful celebrations like two previous years… it is because the day was also the first day of Ramadhan, the sacred month of the Moslems… I don’t think having any celebrations will suit the atmosphere of it… that was why I only had my brother, Ade, and my sister, Dian in a very peaceful evening at Pizza Hut, having our very first Buka Puasa and talked about current life…
But even so, I have several things to be happy with… well, on the beginning of last year, I made some year resolutions, and gladly I have experienced and established some of them before my birthday this year.
1. My graduation
One of the best days for everyone who believes that education is Coeur de la vie, must be flying to heaven on their graduation day… I guess it happened to me as well. I successfully finished my undergraduate degree on July 27th, and the graduation day ceremony was held on August 19th. Well, for some people it is just an ordinary event that any person could have, but for me it can mean millions… At least I can see it as a way that made my parents proud… well, at least after my total screwed up first education five years ago, now I have something reliable to pursue for job and better future : my Bachelor of Economics title…
2. More Language Studies
Nowadays, if you can only speak English as foreign language, then it wont count for a big thing… Everyone seems to be able to speak English anyway…I also always dream of myself speaking 4 languages of the world…now I am in the middle of my journey in achieving it… just finished my conversation class of French and currently doing the course for Italian and German at once… well, hopefully in two years I can speak more than just ‘Bonjour’, ‘Grazie’, or ‘Enschuldigung…’
3. Spectacular Barca scored the treble
One of the things that I loved the most, perhaps I have told you for a thousand times, is the football club FC Barcelona… I have loved the club since 1997, and I have stick with it through its thick and thin every season… this time, for the season 2008/2009, spectacularly, my dearest football club won 3 major title, which are European Champions League, Spanish La Liga, and Spanish Copa del Rey… it was the best moment for me, being a Barca fan so far… hopefully they will do the same for the following years… and hopefully, I can achieve my dream : Watching them live at Estadio Camp Nou in Barcelona…
4. Finished my Story
I never state to myself that I can be a professional writer one day, but I love to read since I was a kid, therefore, just like every heavy reader would dream about, I always dream of publishing my story, which is genuinely came out of my brain and consists of various characters which are the reflections or personifications of my traits/behaviors. Well, right now, although it hasn’t been published yet, but I already have my story in hand… I finished it at the end of last year, and I called it D.I.A.N.A… Some close friends have read it and so far they commented that it is a good story… now, I have established myself as a writer… will I go professional some day? Time will reveal…
Besides all the happiness, well, I have gone through some sadness, although so far I can deal with it… I am still in a relationship with the girl that I’m in love with, although the heavy wind and sometimes storm struck us… after almost a year, the pressure gets high and more frequent, therefore leaves me wonder whether the relationship is the best for both of us… but I have made a promise to myself, that when some day I meet someone that I think will be the love of my life, then I shouldn’t think much further… I have to hang on to her no matter what, then time will answer whether she is the one who has been in the other end of the subtle thread God made for us… right now, I still call her, dream of her, and sometimes write poems to her… hopefully this situations will go on no matter how heavy the pressure is…
