Commemoration of The Most Memorable Adventure
It was like a dream came true when my mobile phone rang
right before Akuntansi Sektor Publik class started. I remembered we were about
preparing for the second Quiz test when Mbak Titis (I guessed from her voice)
congratulated me for being chosen as STEP HUE candidate. The first thing crossed
in my mind was that I could not believe “I am going to Japan!!”. I kept
repeating, said it to myself.
Entering the class with smiley face that I definitely could
not hide, spontaneously I shouted to my friends, “I am going to Japan! Oh My, I
just can’t believe it!”. While they were congratulating me, I was still in my
effort to convince myself that I would go to study abroad, Japan, for the very
first time. ABROAD!! Oh My! Alhamdulillah.
Today, April 2nd, 2012, exactly a year has passed
since my departure to Hiroshima, Japan. It was early spring with temperature
always below 10 degree for the first couple months. For me, it was like I had
been put in a big freezer. OK, that’s exaggerating. But it was cold, yes.
There are no best words to describe my gratitude for being
able to experience studying in Hiroshima Keizai Daigaku (Hiroshima University
of Economics). I got a lifetime experience, friends, family, love, joy and
happiness which I would always cherish forever. I’d like to freeze my memories
in Japan since to me; it was the most joyful part in my whole life. I feel no
pressure, I enjoy every second of my day. And tonight, I am missing Japan like
crazy!! I don’t know how or when, but I promise to myself to visit there once
again..again..and again :p
Not
only the places that I miss, but also most importantly my friends and family in
Japan. I miss them, I want to meet them. Laugh with them again if I have a
chance. Amen!
