for you...

there's some people, in life, acting like they're everything, being very exclusive, ignoring the others.

if you're one of them...

one day, you'll run over me,

you'll tell me you know me,

and I will just say, "pardon me, did I know you?"

"One of the greatest victories you can gain over someone
is to beat him at politeness" ~Josh Billings

"Apa yang membuatmu tidak menyesal?"

...tersenyum.

pertanyaan diatas adalah pertanyaan favorite saya jika ditanya tentang pilihan saya masuk ke sekolah yang sekarang. dan tentu saya akan menjawabnya dengan sukarela sambil tersenyum.


awalnya, saya daftar ke SMAK 7 BPK Penabur, sekolah yang memang sudah menjadi "tujuan umum" lulusan SMPK 5. Diterima. Tinggal keputusan mau tetep diambil atau ngga. "Nggak, lepas aja," saya menjawab mantap.

ada tujuan SMA kemana? tidak.

lalu kenapa dilepas? ga tau. saya hanya menuruti kata hati saya.

Sampai pada awal tahun saya masih belum tahu mau masuk mana. Akhirnya orang tua saya mengajukan 2 pilihan: SMA Theresia & SMA Santa Ursula. Saya menyanggupi keduanya.

Pertama kali liat SMA Sanur, hati kecil saya menolak. Entah kenapa rasanya saya bener-bener ga suka sama sekolah itu.

Sehari sebelum test di SMA Sanur saya berdoa dalam hati kecil saya...

"Tuhan, Engkau tahu aku isi hatiku, aku ga suka sekolah ini.
Besok aku akan test masuk sekolah ini,
apapun isi hatiku, akan kukerjakan dengan maksimal.
Bila memang bukan tempatku, biarkanlah aku tidak lolos.
Tapi jika memang tempatku disini, biarkanlah aku lolos seleksi,
dan aku berjanji AKU TIDAK AKAN PERNAH MENYESAL"

Ketika hari pengumuman Pendaftaran Siswa Baru, saya melihat kertas pengumumannya dan menemukan angka "316". Nomor pendaftaran saya. Orang tua saya langsung memberi selamat.

Di mobil, saya menangis diam-diam. Tidak pernah terbayangkan sebelumnya saya akan bersekolah di tempat ini. Itu tangisan saya yang terakhir tentang masuk ke SMA Sanur (-ketika udah di Sanurnya itu beda lagi).

Saya benar-benar yakin Tuhan mendengarkan doa saya, dan saya benar-benar yakin ini adalah tempat yang terbaik bagi saya yang telah Tuhan persiapkan. Walaupun sampai sekarang saya telah mengalami banyak masalah disana dan merasakan sendiri beratnya bersekolah disana, perstiwa itulah yang membuat saya tidak pernah menyesal sampai saat ini.

365 give thanks!

I was inspired by my friend, Michelle Sanchie, who decided to do 365 give thanks statuses on Facebook. So I'm about to do so, and post the 365 give thanks here. Since I won't post them here everyday, I decided to write some of them on my little note book, and post them here then.

I started it on Valentine day, I hope next valentine will be full of joy because I've written 365 give thanks!
