Hi!

How are you? So here i am, it's 11.30 pm and i suddenly got an insight to write something.

This week was.... i got a lot of things to do, i got many assignments and it has to be finished by the exams which is going to be after my short holiday. I got 3 weeks actually before the exams, but i'm going to go back to Balikpapan next week and i don't think i could finish all of those during the holiday. I do need some time off.

Yes, right now i'm on my 4th semester in Uni and things get harder and "riweuher" everyday. This semester was pretty challenging for me because i learned the basic things of each majors in psychology. There're some things that i like and some i just don't. But i realize that no matter what i choose later on my 6th semester, i should be good at everything because all i'm gonna get after graduating is S.Psi.

Okay you, so what i'm gonna share today is me.

ME?!

Yes, me.

mini me
i think i was 14 in this picture
when i was 17, during my exchange year in Germany

my 20th birthday party at Mcd
I just want to share that after entering college, my life is literally changed. So for your information, Universitas Airlangga is located in Surabaya. Actually, i lived here till i was 9 then i moved to Balikpapan because of my dad's work. I got my grandparents here and i normally went here for holidays, of course till i got accepted in Unair then for me holiday is when i'm able to go back to Balikpapan.

Everything's hard for me at the beginning. My house is far from Uni like around 9 km, and i used to drive like 5 minutes from my house to my school. Here i have to wake up so early, otherwise i'll be late for the class. I can't drive home directly after class because that's afternoon and that's a perfect time for a traffic jam. i should drive like after 6 pm. My first month living in Surabaya was crazy, i stressed out. But by the time i'm getting use to it and now everything seems like normal to me.

Moving from a small city to a big city requires a hard work, not only by the traffic but also the social life. It wasn't that hard to make friends in Balikpapan, like it's a small city and feels like everyone knows each other. But here, i struggled to make friends outside the uni. Inside's pretty easy i never had problems with it but i'm a type of person who likes to engage to activities outside the school too. I like to meet new peeps and get a new experience.

I joined some committees on my faculty and i enjoyed it. I met new amazing friends and being a happy-campus-girl. In my 2nd year i tried to find some activities outside the campus, i started volunteering as a teacher for street children and now i'm an intern at Jobhun Surabaya. I'm planning to sign my self up to be a buddies for exchange students, because i feel like my exchange year was so unforgettable and i want to make someone's exchange year unforgettable.

So guys, i'm turning 21 this year and i start to think about "what i'm gonna be for the next 5 years" like almost every night. I don't know, i feel like i'm so old. I'm so old and i still don't make goddamn money by myself. Sometimes i think i need to graduate as soon as possible so i can get a job and live independently, but everytime i think about it i remember one of my friend saying "Don't be so rushing, just let it flow and enjoy every second you have". It's always in my head. She's just so inspiring, by the way it's Ce Novita. We knew each other from a community where we both automatically a member because of we were tourism ambassadors. Actually that changed the way i think so much. Before, i was totally a perfectionist and i always wanted to be so rush in everything. I wanted this and that and this and that. But after i met her and talked to her about life, i became the one i never thought i would ever be. I thank God for you, Ce.

Almost 21 years. Time flies. Feels like it's only yesterday i cried to my mom asking for barbies, and now i got to buy them with my own money. It's not that all i think is about money money money, but yes i don't deny it if someone just come to me and asking me to marry him i would absolutely say yes because i'm so tired of this freaking assignments. IT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN I GOT TO GRADUATE AND GET A JOB THEN ENJOYING MY OWN MONEY FROM MY OWN SWEAT AND THEN FINALLY GETTING MARRIED.

Okay, back to the topic
I can say
almost 21 and on my 2nd year in Uni,
from the first time i got into college till now, i'm transforming so much. When i said "so much" i meant it. I used to be the one who got a high level of anxiety, i worried about almost everything. I didn't say that right now i'm anxiety-free but i'm getting so much better. I tried to reflect what i've got and to think positive more and more. I learned to be more confident for what i've decided, and  to be grateful for everything. I tried not to think about what others got but what i could possibly do to become the one i aspire to be. I tried to learn from what i've done wrong at the past and fix it for a better life. I tried to genuinely let go all the pain and be happy, because i deserve to be happy. Everyone does.

No one have rights to say that you're not able to do things you never thought you would be able to, even yourself needs to be sure and just let it flow. Believe in yourself and always be grateful. Everyone were born for some beautiful reasons, for some different struggles, for some happiness. We all got this, you and me. Us. I guess no one says living life is easy, it has it's ups and downs. We're all at the same place. Time and hard work could possibly make you live a better way. Just like what i've experienced.




Love💋,
Andrea
