Fully Loaded part 2

"Love happens to you. To us. And sometimes, just sometimes, it happens without you knowing.

And when you do realize it, things have become just a little bit too late." -  D

When people put me in a position where I have to defend myself, I choose to keep quite. They are trying to put me down, well it  is not gonna work, I am telling you. Why? Because I know my own values and I don't think my words would prove them wrong : my actions will.

I am not overly confident or what lah~  I am maybe young and just (almost) 22 years old, but I survived many hellholes and I've gone through a lot things that a regular 22 wouldn't get through. I worked my ass off to get to where I am now, I am not just some "lucky" girl. I deserve things that I have at this moment, cause I earned it myself. I have the choice for not being an independent person and depend on my parents rather than working this hard to earn a living. But hey, I am a born fighter. :)

I am exhausted: both physically and mentally. People asking me why I work so hard, is it because of money? No, it isn't. Money comes and goes.. we know that. It is simply because that's who I am. I do what I do based on my qualities, not because I am such a workaholic I guess, though I am addicted to my job.. or because anything or anyone else. This is me, I take things seriously, especially for something that I get paid for: I will make sure that I am worth every penny, people spent on me.

Last week has been one of the most toughest weeks in my whole life and what made it even worse is I don't have my tranquilizer. People take advantage of me, people disrespect me, they tried to put me down, stupid clients threw tantrums at me, but still what hurt me the most is your absence. Sorry, I can't let you stay, do you know that I am trying to save what we have?

Love,
D

You name it!

There are a lot of things I want to let it all out of my brains right now. I am on fire, not literally. duh
I have this a lot of extra care, energy, and passion that I usually spend (waste) on my lousy relationship.

I have 1 main job, 2 side jobs.
If you are one of my loyal blog readers you will know how I have a small (but I'm very proud of it) creative house, named MONOKROM. Read the story here.
And I just launched my (accessories) online shop last December and it's been doing (surprisingly) very well. (thanks to my very supportive colleagues, friends, and family <3 )

I am such a hard-working girl right? lols
Play hard, work harder! After all, we are on our own. Don't take this wrong, but our parents or whoever you depend on, aren't going to live forever. So you have to learn how to be an independent creature; you will surprise yourself; you are much much stronger and better than you ever imagine.

I am addicted to this feeling, when I finally get something that I really wanted for a long time with my own money that I earn myself.

I feel like..


Money was never the reason behind my working-hard attitude. I KINDA HAVE THIS LOVE-HATE RELATIONSHIP WITH MONEY. okay? I NEED MONEY LAH OF COURSE but I DON'T WORK FOR MONEY, but if you want to give me your money I WILL TAKE IT. LOL LOL.

My Mother always tells me and reminds me about how being lazy will be the obstruction of my own "upgrading" process, me upgrading as a human being, as a daughter, as a graphic designer ; simply at any kind of progress. It makes you stuck! And as a human being you have to step forwards, not standing steadily at your current position, or even worse, backwards.

That is why I HATE LAZY PEOPLE, especially when their laziness AFFECTS other people in a BAD BAD WAY! You want to go die then die yourself lah don't take me witchu!!! PI LO! (Thanks WH to teach me this, it means "KENTUT LAH...")

And I also cannot understand and WILL NEVER be understood how an extremely talented person, abandon their gift just because they are too lazy to upgrading themselves. FUCK YOU.  I hope your talent(s) disappeared rapidly and transferred too me. *evillaugh*

Do you know why I work so hard?
Because I know I am not really that talented in graphic design compares to MANY people out there. I oftenly struggle with the designing process which means I need more TIMES. So.. If I want to keep up with others.. I have to work harder due to my lack of talents; I don't have any other choices. And I don't want to have any regrets, cause having regrets feels like you shit in your pants at your holy matrimony.

And.. I love how my Mom told me once...
"You know Dewi, everything that you have right now, your sight, your hearing, your hands, your hair, your breath.. Your bag, your money... Are not really yours, God let you borrow them. So when God took some of these from you, you don't have to be angry because He just takes what's belong to Him."

It keeps me back down to earth every time I started acting like a cocky bitch.

SO START GIVING YOUR BEST BEFORE (YOUR) GOD(s) TAKES BACK YOUR TALENT(s) OKAY!!!! :) :)

In case you miss me, here is the newest pic of me:

BABY DOM SO CUTE, oh my God!!!!

Love,

D

There it goes..

I never have respects for those men who hit women, regardless of the reason WHY.
Especially when a grown up man slap his little sister as hard as he could until her cheeks swell, her lips bleed, and caused her a terrible headache that lasted for 2 days. What an honored man he is, yeah?

A person need to be well respected if she/he wants to be heard. If you can't even earn other people's respect then how you expect them to listen to you??? And remember how respect is EARNED, it is not something you have automatically just because you happened to be an elder sibling. Being born as an elder brother/sister doesn't mean that you can fucking dictate your younger siblings like they don't have their own perspective. 

And remember how action speaks louder than words. If your asshole younger siblings don't want to listen to your words, you should be the living example for them, a good one of course. Maybe you are not such a good living example of an elder sibling so that might be the reason why your younger sibling REFUSES to follow your advice lah!! They maybe have these thoughts like: "MEH! koko can't even control his ugly temper then why I have to respect this asshole? WHY AH? Always beat me one lah, his younger sister, when we have an argument. why can't he argue like a normal adult without violence ar??"

People have their own will and thoughts, you can't force them to follow your will. I mean of course you can give your piece of thoughts when you are ASKED and when you gave your words but they don't agree with you, you don't have any rights to be mad! Who died and made you a King of Everything?

For example, Me, myself, I have always been a stubborn human being, probably since I was still in my mother's womb. I don't like when people KEEP telling me to do. I HATE IT. It is not that I don't need other people's advice, on the contrary, I always seeks advices from my loved ones when I have some problems for example like if I got pregnant but I don't have any idea about who the father is, but surely I don't need an advice about how to eat a fucking boiled crab. I surely can eat my boiled crab in any kind of ways that I want, why? FUCK YOU that's why!

No lah, just kidding :p
I mean when it comes to small unimportant matters like: "how to dig your nose in a right way" or "how many times you have to breathe in a day"... Do you really have to give an advice about that? really?

There it goes my very last respect for this so called "honorable and righteous man".

Dirty Little Secret(s) Part I

BEHOLD, my fellow graphic designers or those students who are currently studying visual communication. I want to share some short cuts and good tips for you :)

For those who are still in college/ uni, if you are thinking that you are going through hell, well let's say that loe cuma baru aja sampe  di depan gerbangnya neraka. hahahahahahaha *keselek*. Cause once you have start working as a professional GD, things are getting worse than when you were still in school.

You are going to face the real clients, real projects, and of course you have bigger responsibility because people pay you for your artwork. Doesn't it sounds scary? well, it is. BUT, if you prepared yourself, you shouldn't be afraid of anything, because everything needs a process. Apalagi dunia design itu, learning by doing.

My tips on getting a job:

1. PREPARE AN AWESOME PORTFOLIO.

You will need an awesome portfolio to amaze your future employer. Ga usah masukin banyak2 project, karena pas interview pun they barely have time to check all your artworks. Cukup masukin project2 yang menurut loe bagus dan misalkan yang udah di publish beneran (kalo ada). 10-15 projects juga udh oke.

2. SEND YOUR CV AND PORTFOLIO TO LOTS OF DIFFERENT AGENCIES

Be confident. :) Put aside the negative thinking like : "Hell no, I will not get this job." JUST TRY. You have nothing to lose. I sent my application to be an Art Director when I was still 19 years old and viola, I got it. I never thought they want to hire me but hey, you will never know if you don't try, rite? :))

3. WHEN THEY CALL YOU FOR AN INTERVIEW...

Congrats! hahaha means your portfolio berhasil bikin mereka tertarik B) You may want to design and print your own name card! Print out your portfolio and CV, gave them a copy of your CV would be nice. Give them a QUICK review of your portfolio, always smile, and relax! It is okay for you to ask them if you don't understand about the regulations.

---------------------------------------------------------------

GOODLUCK YAH JOB HUNTINGNYAHHH. I hope my tips will help you :)
Note that these tips are based on my personal experiences.
I will share my other dirtier little secrets for my fellow graphic designers, SOON.
STAY TUNE FOR THE DIRTY LITTLE SECRET(S) PART II !!!! :D

Tahun lalu mungkin adalah ultah TERBURUK, bahkan lebih buruk dari ultah Sweet Seventeen gue dimana gue baru pindah ke Singapore, jauh dari orang tua dan orang-orang yang gue sayang. Tahun lalu bahkan bokap gue sendiri enggak ngucapin ultah ke gue. Dan orang yang gue sayang kagak nyiapin apa-apa buat gue, sedangkan pas dia ultah gue ngumpulin gaji gue buat beliin dia jam tangan yang dia mau. Love sucks, huh? engga sih, Dia yang sucks.

Tapi ulang tahun gue yang tahun ini, probably was the BEST BIRTHDAY EVER!
I feel loved and it feels fuckin good to be loved!!! :D

Jadiii... di usia 21 ini, gue memang merasa gue lebih dewasa, lebih bisa nahan emosi, walaupun kemarin ini sempet melakukan hal-hal yang super bodoh!! hahahaha. Pas tanggal 3, dimana gue resmi bisa mabok-mabokan, gue kerja seperti biasa. Enggak ngeluh seperti tahun-tahun sebelumnya where I demanded a day off on my birthday. childish banget yah?? ITCCHHHHHH. *kibas rambut*

Pas jam 12 malemnya my lovely mom and my jelly surprised me with a lovely birthday cake while I was working on Monokrom's projects. Padahal sebelomnya mama gue bilang "Dew.. tahun ini mamah gak beliin kueh yahhh.. bosen gitu-gitu ajahhhhh."

MY WISH: semoga gue cepet kaya dan bisa banggain mamipapihhh :*

Terus sorenya gue naek taksi macet2 ke Kelapa Gading karena Didi bilang sama gue ada meeting sama client. To be honest sempet kepikiran sih, masa gue lagi ulang tahun gak ada apa-apa sama sekali, malah kerja. Tapi ya udah juga sih, taon depan juga ulang tahun lagi. HAHAHAHAHA.

LALU LALU... AKU... AKU DI SURPRISE-IN!

Ternyata Didi, Dodo, Ratna, Chenky, bersekongkol bikin gue nunggu di mol SEJEM, setelah gue macet-macetan kesanahhh. Bilangnya mereka kejebak macet, padahal udah di MKG juga. Mereka beliin gue Kue coklat super yummy di Manon dan belinn gue kado tas Zara yang cocok banget sama kepribadian gueh : PREMAN PETOJO. Terus, Antie sempet2in dateng padahal dia belomm fitt! Gue baru tau dia sakit maag akut D: GET WELL SOON ANTIE SAYANG :*

Thank you banget loh semuanyaaa!!! Buat Ratna, my sweet best friend, I love you full. I learn how to be a good person and good friend from you, na. Buat Antie yang udah bela2in datengg makasih sayang. Buat didi, dodo, chenky.. maacih udh suprisein akuhhh. Buat Dian si cadel lucuuu, terus Ivonne cantikss yang baru menjejakan kakinya di dunia profesional grafik desain *TSAAHHH* dan for the last but not least, Tiara! Si kecil yang innocent and super honest. Thank you guys, kalian bikin ulang tahun gue kali ini LEBIH BERARTI dari tahun2 sebelumnya. :D

Makasih juga buat NINA BURHAN! Veina sayang, Rika dan Lala yang kasih gue ban pinggang Zara yang sama persis kayak tas yang dikasih dari temen2 kuliah gue. hahahahahaha
Dan terima kasih buat semuanya yang udah wishing me a happy birthday. :)

KECUP BASAH SEMUAHNYA. MUACH. :* :* :*

HAPPY BDAY DEWI CANTIK. :D

I love being 21, single, and I have some goodnews that I will reveal soon.

FAB LANE.

Udah lama banget nitch ga ngeblog pake bahasa nenek moyang.
Lega banget rasanya jari2 tambun ini nari2 diatas keyboard tanpa harus bolak - balik ke Google Translate atau sekedar ngecek grammar di Google, dan Oxford Pocket Dictionary butut gue.

Tapi kadang-kadang kalo jiwa kebulean gue lagi keluar, gue lebih nyaman ngeblog pake bahasa inggeris. *kibas rambut*

Pernah gak lo berasa super cape, tapi lo ga bisa tidur ?
Dan itu bikin lo pengen nangis kejer buat luapin semua kecapean lo? Bengong dikit, mata berair. Lengah dikit, tau-tau lo lagi bengong. *bengongception*

Hidup gue sekarang semacam perempuan gila kerja. Apalagi sejak Monokrom resmi jalan dan bikin gue otomatis jadi Art Director di 2 design agencies sekaligus. Bangga? Tentunya. Cape? BANGET. Abis selesai ngantor di Cideng, gue masih harus ke PIK, seminggu 3x kesana. Dan kalo gue ga ke PIK, gue bawa pulang kerjaan ke rumah, pulang ngantor tidur bentar, lanjut kerja lagi. Nge-date? Boro-boro, gue sering banget malem mingguan sama laptop, terus pulang ke rumah bercumbu sama ranjang gue.

Semuanya gue jalanin dengan ikhlas, gue seneng dikasih kepercayaan sama Tuhan buat punya 2 tanggung jawab yang berbeda, artinya Tuhan taulah kalo gue mampu. Banyak yang mau cari kerjaan susah banget, ini gue malah ada 2. Harusnya gue seneng, ya kan?

Tapi ada titik dimana gue super duper merasa minder dan gak percaya diri bahwa gue mampu ngejalanin ini semua. Gue pernah ada kepikiran pengen mundur dari either Octis atau Monokrom karena gue takut banget ngecewain orang dan gue ga bisa ngasih apa yang mereka harepin dari gue. Tapi gue ga mau nyerah gitu aja, i am a fighter and i refuse to be a quitter.

Bukan berarti gue benci sama kerjaan gue, gue cinta banget sama kerjaan gue. Gue bisa liat diri gue sampe 40 tahun ke depan tetep bergelut di bidang graphic design tanpa bosen sedikit pun, I feel like I was born to be an awesome graphic designer. Tapi yah gitu... gue suka lost my grip dan gue bisa berubah dalam sekejap dari dewi yang kuat ke dewi yang super manja ples cengeng. -____-"

Untungnya gue punya nyokap yang bener-bener bisa jadi pelipur lara gue *halah*
Dipeluk dia, semua rasa khawatir, ketakutan akan masa depan, bayangan masa lalu, semuanya pupus dalam sekejap~ She must be some kind of a fairy godmother or sumthin. She is truly magical...

ANYWAY~
Blog gue udah sampe 3600views.. walopun gue jarang ngeblog dan bru setaonan ini aktif ngeblog, gue cuma mau bilang thank you for reading my blog! dan semoga lo ga bosen2 mampir di blog gue hehehe.

All is well.

Love,

Dewi

A fool and a Tough one.

I always believe that basically, people are kind, but I should never forget on how mean and cruel human being can be sometimes. I had this thought; Why do people that I believe will never hurt me, always ended up being the ones who hurt me the most? Because I let them, I gave them a chance to hurt me. I was too naive to have this thought on how they will never ever hurt me but they just proved me wrong, they always reminded me on how I should never trust people that easily, a real prove on how kind and honest human being have been decreasing from time to time.

There was an ugly matter happened to me few days ago, it taught me a lot of things.
How I should never abandon what my brain says, rather than listening only to what my stupid-naive heart says.
How I should never lower down my guard to people who don't deserve it.
How I should respect myself more, value myself rightly.
I was a fool. I admit that.
Time to get on a higher level, wie!

People have reasons behind every mistake they did, oh hell yes they do.
But it doesn't mean its okay to make mistake, especially when you could hurt someone else's feelings.
What an ignorant bastard of you, to think it is okay to hurt people's feelings just because you "have your reasons"???
If I had my reasons to stab you in the eyes, does that mean it is okay to do so??? enggak kan?

Hating people is exhausting. It really is.. That's why I decided to stop give a fuck about those people who don't even deserve my care.
Sometimes, it is easier to just forgive and forget people's mistake, because what they did is too hurtful.
But I can't just forget what people have done to me. NEVER. I might forgive them but I will never forget. I'm not planning on any revenge or getting even, I believe karma will bite them back and if I was lucky enough, God will let me see how they taste their own medicine.

Love is kind... It's true. When you got hurt by someone and you forgive them instead; you bring out the best in you and you are not mad at them however, you tried to understand their reasons on why they hurt you. You accept it sincerely and you wish them the best, you wish that they will never be treated just like the way they treated you... That's simply.. awesome right? :)

The difference between a fool and a tough people is.. a fool will understand and give you another chance, tough people will understand and will never give you a chance to hurt them ever again.

I made mistakes and I learned from them.
I have been hurt but I'm alive.
I forgive and I never forget.

I am now on a new higher level and stronger than ever. BRING IT ON! seriously.

Hey anyway~
These are a bunch of photo of Audric and me cam-whoring. HE IS DAMN CUTE I WANT HIM TO BE MY NEW BOYFRIEND, which is impossible cause I'm 19 years old older than him. Muahahaha.

Don't you just love him?? Audric is so smart, he speaks 3 languages! Chinese, English, and of course Bahasa Indonesia. I have to learn speak and write in Chinese too. Immediately. 

Now I feel.. happy and carefree. Life seems to be more delightful, no more serious worries~

I am happy, you should be happy too! :)

The Fighters

I am a fighter. I choose to be one.

I fight for my rights, for things that I believe in, and most importantly I fight for my dreams, to make it happens, to make it not only just a dream. I am fearless, I must be; because I am strong enough; because being strong was the only choice I have, in order to stay awake.

God loves me so much that He gives me His blessing abundantly, that He finally granted my wish, a wish that I have been dreaming of since I was just a little girl. He sees my efforts and I am rewarded. :)

And I am not the only blessed fighter:

The Founders of Monokrom Creative House :)

Those are bunch of the great fighters I have ever meet in my whole life! I would like to thank these people who took the important and crucial role in the making of Monokrom Creative House. And thank you guys for making my dream come true! :3 Specially to TR and RH who were work harder than the rest of us. I have a main job in Octis and DE currently living in Pekanbaru, so we couldn't do anything much. SORRY GUYS, I LOVE YOU TO DEATH. ♥♥♥

Monokrom was founded around this mid- April and we are officially open for business last Monday (18/6/2012). Monokrom Creative House provides the good quality design services such as Logo & Stationery Design, Company Profile Design, Brochure Design, Printed Advertising, Website Design, you name it and we will give you our best :)

For further information you can email us at monokrom.team@gmail.com or visit our Facebook Page, Monokrom Creative House and our twitter page @monokromCH.

YEAYYY :D

My Supportive Family! :)

TR's niece, Audric! so cute right?

Audric's big brother, Aurel :)

And the great adventure has just begun! :D

Chapter XIX: Stupid people is STUPID.

I love designing! Even since I was a kid I knew what would I become, gak bakalan jauh-jauh dari bidang seni deh pokoknya. Dari jaman SD I love to make a personalized birthday card or christmas greetings card for my friends and family.

And here I am.. a 20 years old Art Director and I achieved my Advanced Diploma when I was only 19 years old. Am I proud of myself?? HELL YES I AM, this is one thing I won't be humble about! The obstacle I have been through to get my advanced diploma is PRICELESS. I still have the desire to pursue my Bachelor Degree.. someday.. when God let me to do so. Don't get me wrong, each people must have something they proud about themselves, so do I. :)

So, basically I DISRESPECT people who thinks that it is so EASY to be a graphic designer. You just need to learn by yourself, get as many as tutorial CD's and youtube videos aaannd TADAAAAA, you're officially a graphic designer. IT IS NOT THAT EASY, BITCH.

More importantly, I can say that I HATE people who underestimate the formal education for Visual Communication; I disrespect people who underestimate the power of (proper and formal) education. And those self-taught graphic designers who want to be appreciate as much as the certified graphic designer, who thinks they are the same or even better from those who actually went to the REAL and PROPER school.. are full of SHAME. How an arrogant asshole you are if you think so. I am honestly feel disturbed by their presence, yes, the self-taught graphic designers. They basically ruined the market price of design services as they will not survive to compete with the certified graphic designer if they ask for the normal price. So the market thinks that those certified graphic designers ask for too high price.

For those who are an educated and professional businessmen and businesswomen will understand why it takes so much money to design a logo, as the value of the logo is not from the size, color, or the difficulty of the logo, but it lies on its originality and ability to represents the company's profile, vision, and mission.

I personally believe that Visual Communication major is important as much as Medical or Law major. In college we learn from the experts themselves and our artworks are judge by them, who are certified and experienced in a real professional world. From the beginning, the lecturers helped us to form a strong and excellent sense of design-style, colors, and font type choices. While a self-taught graphic designer learn from CD tutorials, youtube videos.. and their artwork judge by common people who don't have any idea what a good design is.

Certified graphic designers have more promising career. Why? Because most of the top and professionals design agencies, where ever it is, require a certified graphic designer as their employee, sometimes at least you have to be a Bachelor Degree and they won't accept an Advanced Diploma like me. In so many events, those talented-lucky self-taught graphic designer who got accepted in a company, will be sent to college by their employer to earn their formal education after they shows their skills. Why? Because a good company/employer knows and realize how important a formal education is. :)
Even tough you are an experienced self-taught graphic designer, you still need to get a formal education to be approved as a good designer.

Have you ever seen a self-taught doctors actually works at the hospitals?
Have you ever seen a self-taught lawyers represent a criminal in the courts?

Me neither. :)

A certified graphic designer bisa dikategorikan sebagai graphic designer otodidak, tapi graphic designer yang otodidak enggak akan pernah bisa di kategorikan atau disamakan dengan those certified graphic designer.

Perbedaan itu ada, kenapa harus disamakan kalo emang gak sama?? Let's respect the difference, let's respect each other. STAY HUNGER, STAY FOOLISH, just like what Steve Job says.

Hasil kerja designer otodidak belum tentu jelek, begitu juga sebaliknya. Semuanya balik lagi ke pribadi masing-masing. Yang penting adalah jangan pernah meremehkan pendidikan dan jangan cepet berpuas diri akan pencapaian yang udah ada. Di atas langit masih ada langit kawannn... :)

Chapter XIV: ?

Hidup itu enggak ada yang pasti. Justru itu yang bikin seru, iya kan?

Enggak ada yang bisa jamin masa depan lo, bahkan orang tua lo sendiri atau kertas2 ijazah hasil lo menyiksa diri belajar hal-hal yang jarang diterapkan di kehidupan nyata. 2 tahun gue ngeles matematika-kimia-fisika ga ada satu pun yang gue pake di pekerjaan gue dan kehidupan sehari-hari. Paling matematika kepake cuma buat itung2an size poster atau name card sama ngitung pengeluaran gue. Itu pun suka pake kartulator :|

Future does scare me and I do believe in destiny. But it doesnt mean we give up trying our best.
Jangan berpikiran "ah mw gue belajar mati2an, kalo emang takdirnya gue ga lulus, ya ga lulus aja"
Percayalah kawan, takdir memang di tangan Tuhan, tapi nasib masih di tangan kita.  Ketika Tuhan melihat usaha keras kita, Dia akan merestui kerja keras kita dan memberkati apa yang kita mau, itu yang gue percaya. Dan selama ini gak pernah sekali pun Tuhan ngecewain gue.

Enggak peduli darimana lo berasal, yang penting adalah arah tujuan lo. Kalo kata JS, "get rich or die tryin"
Emang bener kalo kaya ga menjamin kita bahagia, but at least we could suffer in style B) ya gakk seeehhh hahahaha.

Live Happily my fellow b*tches! LOL.

Chapter XIII: Happy Holidays!

!

How was your Christmas and New Year's Holiday?

What's your 2011 resolutions that you didn't succeed to achieve and what's your new 2012 resolutions? I spent 2011 without any resolution, because I thought that being healthy and happy were good enough.  Then I realize, actually by making resolution, you set a target, by setting a target you have a purpose to live.

While I was still in the Uni, my purposes were of course to graduate and get a job with a good salary, now that I have achieved my purposes, I had to find my new one to keep my life balance, well I believe so.. Can you imagine traveling without a destination?

And my 2012's Resolution or things that I want/do are :

- Be more patient
- Get back to my ideal weight (50kilos)!! due date by SEPT'12 !! :D
- Start doing the healthy lifestyle
- Learn how to play guitar
- Learn how to DRIVE (a car and motorcycle)
- Saving loads of money
- a Polaroid camera!
- a vacation to Thailand/Vietnam/Lombok :9
- Stay in love with my lovely man, AR!

How about you? Do you think that setting a new year's resolution is necessary?

Chapter XII: Just Go Along With Your Heart

February last year I got a fortune cookies with my special friend and my fortune cookie said, "Don't believe any rumors around you, just go along with your heart." And I hold on to that for the following year.

Last year was the most changeling year I ever had in my whole life. There were so many ups and down, well mostly down. I graduated and finished my Advanced Diploma, got a job directly 5 days after the graduation, and the man I loved support my career .. I was high on my life.

When you are "too high" there must be some time when you are 'sobering', and while the sobering process begins, you feel pain all over your body. Things started to break down: I lost the man I cared the most, I lost my job that I enjoy, and it was hard to let go things that you really love.

From last year, I learn how to enjoy the moment, life is pretty damn short you have to enjoy every seconds of it, even when you are in pain. Slow down, don't take decision too fast, let nature do its job.
I learn to let things go when things are not going the way I wanted. And I do believe God always have a better plan when He takes back some things from you.

This year, things started to be perfectly fine; I couldn't ask for more. I met the man of my dream, I got my dream job, and my life is back on fire. :) I am 20 years old only and I believe there are so many good things waiting for me in the future.

And I am ready for 2012. Are you?
