La Vita e Bella

Yeah, at least according to WHO’s category of young people, I’m still considered young!!! Hehehe…

But sadly I have to say that I’m starting to develop a trait that I characterized as typical adult: so busy with life and whoa… suddenly it’s my birthday again.

It’s just so different compared to my childhood.

I remember back then when I was small starting from late August I used to count how many days to go for my birthday, nervously guessing what presents will I get, wondering will they remember, what food will we share at the family dinner, etc. Oh I miss those kinds of feeling. It was lovely to have the feeling every once in a year.

And now I’m in my 24^th years already – so busy with my study that all I remember for September is September 25^th, the due date for my research paper draft. Hiks!

Good thing I have people around me that made my almost-forgotten-birthday becomes an unforgettable one. Of course, ‘around me’ here refers to both who are with me here virtually and those who are away but bothered to spend their time to write e-mails, FS testimonials, send e-cards, SMS, or call… oh my… I found this as one of the things that made my birthday so meaningful: to be remembered.

So as I was sitting in NS train that took me to

Arnhem

, I said a prayer thanking Him for that – for my family and friends.

Also for the person sits next to me who has made my days –especially that day- so wonderful.

For the fascinated journey I have here in the past year – dreams that come true.

For things that may come my way – because I know it’s all planned well in His hands.

For my life.

Yeah….

La vita e bella.
