I wrote this note on my flight back to Jakarta from Padang.

!——————————————————————

Alone on this cold flight, I am looking back on how the holiday was. It was short and tiring, but surely unforgettable; coming back home, feeling the warmth and enjoying every breath in it. Not to mention the super duper delicious home made food by my mom. (it was only 4 days, I think I gained weight already) Then, meeting old friends in Padang. Getting around remembering some old good old days with my sister.
To make it better I was accompanied by a group of my closest friends whom to some of them were their first visit to Padang. Perfect.
Maka nikmat Tuhan yang mana kah yang kamu dustakan?

My main reason going back to Padang actually was to attend my best buddy’s wedding. He marries his long time girlfriend. I knew they would be together. I just knew. Sometime you just have the feeling that people are meant to be together, don’t you? Eventough their journey was not easy but you know they would be together. You just know.

This kind of thought also came to my mind when I observed this other couple. You know what?! at first you wouldn’t believe they have been together since forever. They scream to each other, they fight everyday. Not just everyday, but everytime, on everything. I might sound exaggerating, but believe me the smallest simplest most basic thing could have been the source of argumentation by them, e.g. the way he responsed to her statement. She didn’t like the lazy and mocking sound of his sentences. They fought. Loud voices, high tone, furrowed forehead, but you could never see hatred. She mentioned “nyebelin” many times. But that’s it. That could never go further. They are really into each other, no pretending, and no need other people to come to their relationship.
I would have to say that I couldn’t imagine anyone better for each other rather than themselves.

Let’s relate this with the president election. We all know that the candidates come in pair. The President candidate will choose his/her vice president candidate. Some said that Boediono will be SBY’s weakness. I think that could be proven wrong. They lead the race with more than 50% votes. Ando some said that Prabowo could have been the dark horse on this race… IF he was not paired with that brainless self oriented big lady. Eheh… enough of nonsense talking.

Back to the holiday, next friday I am going to Jogjakarta. My other best buddy will get married there. Yeah, it is mating season Everybody gets married.
Best wishes for you guys all for your new lives. May your loves last forever and you live your lives to the fullest.

Some say follow your heart, some say think logically otherwise you will get lost.

Me? how about me? heh? are you asking me? marriage? umm… ahaha… next year, maybe. Still searching.. eheh.. searching the sign that could convince me…
I know You are reading, help me.
