I love 2007..
Hi. I realise I haven't been blogging for ages. It's been more than 1 month. Haven't even update all of us about my one month trip (or one month sleep) last November back in Indo. Or the Xmas and New Year I spent here in Melbourne with all the people I love. Been through lots of undesirable moments in my life..now I feel, I am alive again..
Let's start with the 1 month trip in Indo last November (or the 'one month sleep'). It was from 10Nov- 12Dec. I was actually invited to a friend's wedding party one day after my arrival, which was on the 11th November. Congratulations to Fenny and husband (I forgot his name)...oups. Coz I don't really know this guy. All I know is they have been dating ever since we were in high school. And the husband is 5 years older than my friend (meaning he might be 27). It's quite a shock when she invited me via Friendster. PS: good idea to send an e-wedding-invitation in the future..=). Anyway, we were never close friends..and who knows, she actually invited me to her wedding. Not until I went to the wedding that day then I realised, she had actually invited only a few of her high school friends. Apparently those high school friends invited were those who were close to her, then I felt a bit 'honoured' I was invited. =) Anyway, it's a good experience and it made me wonder, Who's next to invite me to their wedding. Apparently, I am going to another wedding this Feb. I will be one of the bridemaids. Congratulations to Alison and Gerard! A bit surprised, but I am happy for you both. Again, I felt so 'honoured' to be part of the wedding. I hope everything goes smooth and the reunion will not take too long.
There was an incident in November in my family. My grandma fell of the stairs and it was kinda serious. She lost heaps of blood, but lucky, there's no internal injuries. I thanked God for that. I was so worry, but I bet, my Mum was more worried than me. I know my mum, she is someone who takes care of everything, and as what my Dad always teases her, she is the 'prime minister' in the family. She is the source of information, and also the kinda decision maker..Anyway, I met almost everyone this time. Those who I rarely have a chance to meet everytime I go back to Indo for the past 3 years. OK..I met my oldest uncle (Ta ciu), oldest auntie (Ta Yi Ma), and young uncle (Wu ciu)->All of them live in Jakarta. Actually I met them in my Jakarta trip (17th Nov- 24th Nov). They all went to see my Grandma when I was living with my friend in Jkrt on the first 3 days of my stay in Jakarta. The rest 4 days, I spent it staying with my oldest uncle and his family. They were all nice. Really nice to me although we hardly really catch up or meet for the past few years. That's what I like about this family relationship we have. Everyone is just so 'welcoming' me. I feel so much love. When I came back from the 1 week holiday in Jakarta, I met another uncle, he is the 3rd uncle, the one that resembles my grandpa a lot. He got to check his feet too when he came to see my grandma. He lives in Irian Jaya, which is far away from Medan. (For those who is not familiar with Indonesia Geographic, let me explain a bit, Indonesia has 5 main islands. Medan is located at Sumatra island, on the west side of Indonesia. Jakarta is a city located in Java island, near Bali. And Irian Jaya is another island located on the east side of Indonesia. Thus, Sumatra and Irian Jaya is like the 'start' and the 'finish' line of Indonesia...Kinda).
A week in Jakarta...was OK. First of all, I went there to see some people who I really want to meet. Secondly, I intended to 'survey' the life there, who knows one day, I end up working there in the future. (This was the plan, but after the trip, I realise..I would not want to stay in Jkrt..Never again. To visit, Yes. To stay and live, No.) Anyway, briefly this trip made me realise that I can't live with the past. I need to move on. Though there might be moments from this trip that I might want to keep as memories, but I would just keep them as memories that I treasure. Someone who is important and always will be, someone from the past, someone that I treasure, I want to say Thank you for everything! That's all. I need this all as a closed chapter. I really think, we don't live in the past. We live in what's NOW and Future. So..I have to look forward. (PS: I thank someone who has indirectly convinces/directs me to think that I deserve a new start)
What else with my 1 month Indo trip?
- Everyday, the electricity went off for 4 hours. It's not only once per day though.
- My Grandma acting like a kid again, didn't want to eat and drink a lot with the excuse of not wanting to go to the
- I met my cute little dog, named 'pretty'..she is like my mum's 4th baby now. Mum won't be that lonely now.
- I met those people who are important to my life...I love you all!
Since I came back on the 12th December, everything has been surprisingly great. I have new laptop (coz the old laptop is really dead, else I wouldn't buy a new one on Boxing day). I have a new iPod too from my housemate, Jackson. He said it's a 'thank you' gift for me. My Bro bought me a printer too for Xmas (actually he is buying for himself too, indirectly). Now I am thinking, what am I gonna do with my old printer which is still in perfect condition? Also..I have someone very important in my life now...I am really happy.
Now..I am anticipating my trip to Kuala Lumpur and Singapore later in March. Can't say NO to free ticket, can I? HHmm..anyway, it will be a 10days trip. And I hope, I am 'well prepared' for the trip too.
That's all for now.
