Hey it's December already, time flies too fast. It feels like yesterday when all of us excited welcoming the
mysterious 2012. Even sometimes I think of how ridiculous people used to say that this year will be the end of all. LOL. But though I feel blessed this year! Lots of unbelievable things happen like all of sudden in my life. Things that I thought would never happen, things that I could only dreamed of become real and it feels incredibly great yet sometimes I still feel surreal.
To review a bit these past few years have been really amazing, especially this year. I remember back then on the 1st of January when I usually pray and make a wish for the new blessed year, which is in this case 2012, I asked several wishes to God. One of them was I asked God to give me a chance to go to Europe this year (at least before the doomsday) LOL. At that time I thought I just wished for something that won't happen. Even I tried to find the way to make it happen, like I thought should I bargain with my mom and say "mom, since this year I'm gonna be 21 can you just give me the ticket to go to Europe as my present?" but I know it was a stupid idea. But then all I can say is just I AM BLESSED. It's really happening to me, and now here I am studying in Den Haag, Netherlands. I even got the chance to travel to some beautiful countries in Europe. It's just a huge huge blessing for me and I will never stop to thank God how wonderful His plans in my life are.
Like I always say I love December. For me this month is just a month full of happiness. Not only because there's Christmas and New Year celebrations, but also it's my birthday (yeayyy!). I know I'm going to be 21 this year (which is tomorrow), but still I'm really excited for each birthday I have. I know another year added means another year full of blessing. Like most people say 21 is a special age, it's when you transform from a young adult to become an adult, and it's 3 hours more to go for me. There's a point in my life that I don't want to grow up, I want to stay young and I don't have to worry about those 'adult things' because I don't know if I'm ready or not. I think most of people also have these thoughts when they are younger. But during my 'period of being teenager' I learned a lot of things, I found those interesting new stuffs, which makes me feel the curiosity of being an adult. At this point, I'm not saying that I'm 100% ready for those complicated stupid business (that's how I call it) but I feel challenged and that's what makes me keep believing that no matter what I won't ever fail to make my life worth. This year birthday, I'm going to celebrate it in Den Haag with these new people and this new environment. There's a moment that I feel sad because I can't celebrate it with my friends and family in Indonesia, but in other side I know that this year is gonna be great. It's just another experience that I won't ever forget and besides I know that all of my friends and family will always love and support me wherever I am (another amazing blessing).
