Eeeeeh....2009 already? Darn! how time flies...
How was my life in 2008? Was there anything good happened? Let's see...
My career...I wouldn't say great but ...it's Ok. No robust career development..just usual work yet I guess I'm getting better with what I do.Coz..finally I could do my own project and gave big income to company. Also I got enormous increase...oh yeah! after fought for it for 6 exhausting months. Alhamdulillah...
For love life...eeemmmm...after wandering about a year and questioned my heart over and over again..I finally bravely said to myself : I'm in love with him. Bravely because there's possibility it'll be end up in agony though I have put extra effort not to let that to happen. But future it's not written yet.I might or might not give up loving him someday soon but I'll never regret fall for him coz if not him then it'll not be anyone else...
Traveling? I went to new place last year. Cebu Island in Phillipines. It was a great place where greenish blue sea meets with clear blue sky. For the first time in my life I swum with fishes, literally and went snorkeling. I fed hungry fishes whose tried to eat my fingers when breads in my hand alreay run out. But the most important thing is he was also there. Indeed that vacation couldn't be better without having him next to me.
After Cebu, I determined to get
PADI license in Bali. Some say Bali is a great place to get diving license. The plan was quite solid and I already booked flight ticket but a blood sucker mosquito ruined everything. I was collapsed caused by Dengue fever and stayed in hospital for 5 days just a month before I fly to Bali. So...this can be a resolution for 2009.
Master Degree? Got it just before 'the referee blow end of game whistle'. Phiuuuuhhh... It took 3 fatigue years to accomplish my graduate degree. It's not because the lecture was too difficult but I was suck in time arrangement between work and school. Work always come before school so no wonder I graduated with fair GPA. huhuhuhu... :( Then right after graduation, I enrolled myself again to
France course. I took this course in 2004 for 1.5 years but I have to postpone coz I wanted to concentrate to my graduate school. Now, I have my degree and no need to delay anymore. This course will be a preparation for one of my 2009 plan.
Hmmm...what's left...
Photography? I still couldn't get my name as nominee or finalist or winner for any Photography competition that I joined. Ck! I guess...this is also another resolution for 2009?
Ok for
2009 resolution. Before I started I need to explain that actually... this is not my habit, making resolutions for a new year. I have several long term plans but I don't bother to make any short term plans and renew them every year. I tend to let everything flows naturally. But since this year I have some urge plans then why not called it
" Dini's 2009 Resolution".
So what will I do?...Let's start for
traveling:
Je vais aller a francais cette anne!!! or in other word : "I'll go to France this year!" Actually this is an overdue wish. I've been dreaming of it since the last 5 years. I even take france lesson so that I can understand the languange when I'm in France later. This plan almost failed when Rupiah acts so lame to Dollar. But I have determined that whatever happen I'll go to Paris this year. Perhaps if I have enough dime I'll drop by to Amsterdam as well then go to Van Gogh museum. He's my favorite painter. Ooooh....can't hardly wait...to wake up in the morning and see eiffel tower in reachable distance.
Then another resolutions are I have to spend more time
reading. This is because whenever I travel overseas I always dropped by to my favorite bookstores : Border or Kinokuniya (They have complete and variance books rather in Indonesia) and bought books and literatures but when I got back those books remains at racks and getting dusty. I keep telling to myself to read them soon yet soon delayed longer. So I need to push myself realiazing that intention : Reading more. On new year day, I have finished reading " Snow in Kilimanjaro" by Hemingway. Though I could barely understand his stories yet it was a good start. Next is Anna Karenina by Leo tolstoy or Fiesta by Hemingway (again) ? Also I want to
write more in order to convert tons of idea in my mind in to solid words. Many years I keep those ideas in my mind but it's about to change.
How bout love life? A marriage perhaps? Hmmm.... I don't know. I used to pursue to get married when I reached 27. That year already past and I'm still being gorgeous single (hehehe :D). I guess I made that target just because an idea and influenced by people surrounding me. Not because I really need it. So I decide
not to make any target to get married. Just let it flow. When the time is right it'll happen and perhaps I might not see it coming :D
What else? Ah...the next thing is a wish...with an effort though. I wish I could get a new & better
carrer overseas. This year will be a perfect year to grab a new challenge in new place. Let's hope by help from Allah, this wish will come true.
That's all my resolutions for
now. Let's hope everything will pan out as its plan.
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009!!
