Make Every Second Count







So it's July. It's 22nd. It's one month and plus til the day I'll embark on a new life journey in Sydney. Isn't time ticking way too fast? Or because I'm on holidays and I am too carefree? But it's impossible, yet possible! It feels like last month the time I finished my Final National exam. It feels like last month I just graduated from high  school. So it's supposed to be 4 more months. not bloody ONE!

Time flies, no kidding. I've seen around 10 of my friends gone to further their studies in different cities. Some overseas, some still domestic. Having less and lesser time to live in Medan terrifies me, yet on some occasions, comforts me. Terrifying because I'm gonna leave my bittersweet hometown for (at least) half a year before I could be back here again. My whole life I've never lived a month apart from Medan. Maybe I'm being exaggerating but true it's what I feel. Comforting because I'll be living away from my parents. Actually it's not truly comforting. It's more like, exciting. It's a whole new life experience indeed! Living away from my parents? I think if the reason is not due to better education, my parents would never ever let me live so far away. Well although I'll still be there with my two sisters.

Pretty scary now? Oh and I'm beginning to learn that I won't be able to depend too much on my two sisters. They have their own matters to do, of course. And I've always wanted to be an independent woman. So I can say, it's my chance. I, myself, am not sure how I'm gonna work everything out.But since it's my childhood dream to study in an English-speaking country, I'm pretty sure I'll find a way.

From now, I hope ( no more promises) I'll update this blog as often as I want (yes it depends on my mood!)
It'll be so much fun if by the time I leave my hometown, and I miss it so much I couldn't help, I can re-read my posts and... be overwhelmed with the atmosphere. Right now as I'm typing this, I can feel my almost-teary eyes, so let alone when I'm already there.

Make Every Second Count. As I'm still here, I hope for the next one month I'll do things I've always wanted to do. Carrying no regrets and burdens as I leave. Rather than lazying and doing nothing special every day, I shall (and have to!) move my ass off bed more early in the morning and get back to bed more early at night.
Fingers crossed! xx

PS, I'm worrying a bit too much about LDR lately ;(

PicBombs on fb






 






Going to upload the full version of my holiday on fb! haha

Her

Not posting regularly definitely broke my own promise. In my weak defense, I had a fever the next day of the previous post so I couldn't post. It lasted for three days. I wasn't allowed to go anywhere, staying at home all day. Hehe

Oh btw I went to Singapore (again) quite recently and Brastagi for a short vacation with family! I felt so happy Tacie decided to make up her mind and returned home because of the longing for us (yeah she said that) :)
Since the whole family members were in Medan, we decided to have a new family photoshoot. Considering the old one were taken in like roughly 8 years ago..when I was in the elementary school.

I kinda miss Grannie a lot lately. Approximately one more month and it'll be a year.. I often connect some situations with Her presence. Like my short violent argument with sisters a while ago. The next thing I had in mind while pouring out my feelings in tears was : "If only Grandma were here, she would've been on my side. Teeling us to stop arguing over such trivial matter. " True it is, My Grandma was my hero. She would always be my bullet-proof, towards anyone scolding me. Yes including Her own son too. I am holding my tears whilst typing this..crossing my fingers she is doing very fine up there, that my Grandpa would protect her, cause we can't anymore. Sigh the matter I regret the most up til now would be not trying to do my best as a granddaughter when she was still here in my world. I know I can do nothing about it now, but I am always sad whenever I reminisce how rebellious I was back then.. I love you Grandma.


Sealed,

Keep Clean

Today was... Supercsligraphdkdhelshly tiring. First outreach at the Pelita Kasih orphanage was a lot of fun! The SEALNet team got to teach children to be more aware of the importance of hygiene. I was in charge of the 'Brush Teeth' booth. My job was to teach them the need to take care of teeth hygiene. I demonstarted how is the right way to bruah teeth: which starts from the upper outside teeth, goes to lower outside teeth. Upper inside and lower inside teeth. Also that 2 minutes is the right amount of time to brush teeth. Not less.

Just after finished teaching them stuffs and lots of games(!) my whole body felt boneless. Headache came attacking, as an extra. One funny yet annoying incindent was my left shoe was bitten by the dog there. I had to go leave and walj with one-shoed. Hahaha it was realllllllly annoying at first but to think about it now it's nothing compared to what they suffer there..

Tomorrow will be the second leadership workshop! I hope my health can be cooperative for tomorrow. Fingers crossed for SEALNet project till one week ahead! xx

I'm a dream

I tried to blog from iPhone last time using BlogWriter or something and guessed what? After typing around 500 words (yes that much! and thumb-typing!) I wanted to check a word on the dictionary application and when I returned to BlogWriter, THEY'RE GONE. 500 words were not saved! Stupid application grrrr. My thumb started feeling numb afterward.. bummer.

Another suck incident happened was last night, when a COCKROACH out of the blue appeared on my sister's bed. I was just about to sleep, I've turned off the light and I saw something moving. My gawd I nearly kissed it -__- I tried to get rid of it but it kept on escaping. Finally I draw lines with that cockroach-and-ants-remover chalk and went to sleep. So today I asked my housemaid to change the bed cover and to search for the cockroach. After searching every corner and place ( every!) in my room, it turned out to be nowhere. Mom and dad said I was probably dreaming last night .__. It's impossible! I even had goosebumps because of the dancing cockroach! OHMY

Lately I've been reaaaaaaaaally busy with SEALNet. I'm going to tell everything about it later. SEALNet is my everyday life now. It's like going to school! haha I have to meet my SEALNet friends literally everyday! Anyway, tomorrow will be our first outreach to Panti Asuhan Pelita Kasih. We're gonna teach them about hygiene and sanitation! I hope they will welcome us :)

I also hope I can blog everyday. At least a post to describe my day.. yeah I shall start doing that! :D
