“When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.”― Henri J.M. Nouwen, Out of Solitude: Three Meditations on the Christian Life

From Left to Right: Irma, Sigit, Me, Haiwal(Iwal)

These people are surprisingly persons who's been knowing me since elementary school. Weirdly, we weren't close at all that time. We were actually fighting against each others and now.... here we are, sticking around.

Honestly, even we weren't that close, but we've been taking care of each others since then, also, we've been there without ourselves realized. Just so you know, Sigit was the cruelest person in our school he always find ways to make all of us cried, he drives us mad time to time, all of us had time where we were all fed up with his not-so-funny jokes but we should admit school felt boring without him there (I hope you're not seeing this, or else your head must hit the moon by now). There once a time where he acted clue-less, he's so un-predictable and oh-so-weird type of guy but guess what? he broke several hearts of lovely girls out there. Next, Irma, as you can see is a girl who smiles so big in every occasions. I honestly never see her sad at all, she always has her smile everytime we talk, she's your typical asian girl, ever heard the stereotype of us as asians? yep, she's beyond everything you calls genius, ask her what her hobbies are, i bet she'll says her hobbies are calculating, solving a math's questions and calculating again. She'll leave next week ahh i can't believe she is going to leave me here with these two creatures oh my dear, who'll saves me from these people from now on? Lets move to the most,most manga and anime miniature collector, Haiwal, I don't know, i really have no idea what he's collecting, but hell yes it spend lots of money. He's just like Irma, a geek, they both genius (we are all,actually lol) I remember at elementary years, Sigit always made fun of him, they both an enemy back then, but look at them now! the hardest people to divide, whenever you see Haiwal there must be Sigit around.


I should admit, it must be weird when we tried to contact each other and managing this met-up. I mean, we weren't that close before! but honestly, i just realized that they are really important, they took big part of my life; I don't know what my elementary years would feel like if they weren't there, then i felt the urge to contact them and arranging this catch-up. Hope to find another perfect time for a long coffee talks soon with these lovelies! xoxo
