HAPPY NEW YEAR 2011 !!!!!!
あけまして おめでとうございます!!!!!!
今年もよろしくねえ :)
These are what had happened after Christmas.
December 26th 2010 - December 30th 2010
Basically, nothing special happened on those days coz I just stayed at AP ハウス and did my 日本語 宿題, 日本語原稿, workshop, lalala -______-".
I just went out to the Trial to buy food stuffs for my trip to 大阪。
December 31st 2010
It was the last day of the year.
I stayed at AP ハウス coz I would go to 大阪 the next day so I thought it would be better if I didn't go to the downtown to watch the countdown stuffs (like most of my friends did) coz the last bus to the AP ハウス 前was at 6 p.m which meant that if I had watched the countdown, I would have had to stay overnight at the downtown.
So, yes, I just spent my day in my dorm.
Just like any other night. Nothing special indeed.
In the evening, Prima, Bk, and I decided to go to お風呂 (as Bk and I had promised that before 2010 ended, we ought to go to at least once :D).
At 7 p.m, together we went to お風呂 and that was my first time お風呂 ;)))
It was nice actually. Pretty relaxing ur mind and body.
I bathed in the お風呂 longer than the others.
And that was the cause of what would happen next.
Since my friends had gone out, I rushed from the お風呂 to catch up with them.
Suddenly, slow but sure, I lost my vision.
My damn-low-blood-pressure.
It's getting darker and darker for every step that I walked.
I could walk, I coud hear, and I did not lose my consciousness.
I just couldn't see clearly.
My friends said that I looked like I got trance by ofuro's ghost or something.
Anyway I finally got into my room (with my friends' helps coz I couldn't see the keyhole to insert my room's key) and regained my vision again.
Pretty funny if I remind it again though ;D
Compared to last year, maybe this new year's eve was really dull.
Still fresh in my mind that last year my family and I celebrated the new year in Puncak (of course).
What made it become special was the arrival of my 2 cousins whom I hadn't met for years to Indonesia!!!
It was really great to see them coz it was rare to see them.
New Year's Day, last year, we gathered in my grandparents' villa and played cards together with all of my cousins which was really really fun ;DDDD.
My face was full of powder coz I lost a lot. lol. ;D
In contrast, this new year's eve, I was all alone.
With noone special.
With nothing special to do.
Nonetheless, I still remember that last new year's eve, when I was watching hanabi, I prayed to God so I could continue my study here.
And here I am now.
Safely and sound arrived at Japan and studied here.
Exactly like what I longed for last year.
So, what's the regret?
I don't deny that a lot of times I do really really miss my home.
I miss my bedroom.
I miss the sounds of the noisy-chirping-birds that wake me up every morning.
I miss the sounds of the knocking door from my parents to wake me up or to open my room's windows.
I miss the music of the old-people-morning-exercise at the garden near my house which also wakes me up from my sleep.
I miss kue putu and sekoteng at Puncak.
I miss my dogs, Grimi and Konkon.
I miss my parents and brother so much that makes me mushy every time I remember about them.
Life is a choice.
(quoted from my high school principle's favourite sentence that was always repeated by her every time we had assembly at the hall)
For everything that we want, we should give up something for exchange.
Friends, home, even family.
That is life.
Bitter, sweet, and strange.
Let's hope that 2011 new year's eve will be MUCH MUCH BETTER.
*crossing my fingers*
