Enyt's Blog

I started to write this blog in 2002 when I was still living in Osaka. This blog is more about my life abroad, my past and my present.

Name:
Location: New York, New York, United States

November is my fav month. I was born in Indonesia 28 years ago and currently living in New York. In the city of no close friends, i spend most of my leisure time at the gym and bookstores and yet i am neither muscular nor a nerd..: ) I take life as it is, i try to get as much as from life experiences while i am still young. I've been given a lot of opportunities to spend my life abroad, my inside curiosity is like a three years old kid. Give me the world, i'll give you my heart. :P

Memories of July

How do you know if she/he is your soul mate when you walk down the aisle and swear you are not going to separate? I have been thinking about this a lot especially since I work on wedding parties. I mean when you get married, are you really sure that he/she is The One? What happens if it turns out to be an unhappy marriage? Marriage includes not only two people but also the families and friends of both sides. I know and I told myself many times that I will take whatever consequences it may have when I decide to marry that person. And it really scares me if I can’t find that person. Someone that seems perfect to me.

Been reading some books of “ Single and Happy “ and found out that being single isn’t that bad. I actually love my single life at this moment; at least I won’t have any after-married problems. My friends said I am just not ready for commitment. Maybe they’re right. I’d never ready until I find that Mr. Perfect. I am not even looking for one in this city I am living in now. Sounds too arrogant, huh?

This month brings quite lots of memories to me. A few years ago when I was still in China I met this guy and we became close and now after 4.5 years, he’s telling me that he’s leaving China and head back to his country. Gosh, I can’t believe it’s been so long ago. Then, 2 years ago, another friend I met from internet came to visit me and we had good times that I thought he was the one. Perhaps meeting someone from the net isn’t such a good idea at all. But frankly, he’s unforgettable to me (just accepting the fact we can only be friends..Hmm, let say, for almost 8 years).
Last year in Japan, I found someone so sweet (yes, he cooks for you) and have so many things in common that I thought I fell for him until I found he has a cute girlfriend in his own country. Good thing is we have become good friends (and come to think of it, I am glad that it’s a true friendship).
Then, also in last year, during my summer classes, I met this guy who also shares the same interests in traveling. Nothing ever happened between us, just a good companion (even though I must I admit that I found some qood qualities in him).

I can’t help myself if I keep seeing qualities in people from abroad. One time, one of my closest friends said that I demand for more, demand for qualities that I still can’t find it in my country. I am not saying I am such a great girl that no one in this country fits me, it’s just that those people I know here share nothing in common with me. Or maybe I am not looking hard enough. Hah!
