My Big Brother and His Little Sister

Rants

Hey, guys.
It's been a while since I updated this book.
I missed writing in here and finally I can make it happen. XD

I missed a few people too in Wattpad. But.....let's not talk about them any further. Haha.

Well, first, forgive me for the late update. I was so busy this month.
Besides I took care of the preparation for college, I just had a graduation ceremony this week.

Yup, I'm now officially no longer a high school student. XD
The ceremony ran well. As you can imagine. There were tears and many goodbyes but no matter how sad we were, we have to face it.

Personally, I think farewell in high school was the saddest one.
When I finished my junior high school, I didn't feel upset at all because I knew I would meet some of them again in high school.

But after this high school, the possibility of meeting them again is sooooo tiny. We all have talked and shared our future plans. Most of my friends, just like me, decided to continue their education outside the town.
Even though we're in the same city, we'll take different colleges.
So this made me cry. For not being able to meet them as much as before.

My class will have a vacation together this weekend. I've told you before we will spend one night at a resort.
I bet there will be more tears.
*sighs*

Yeah, yeah, you can call me whimper. But I can't hold it.
Even seeing a deer being killed by a lion in television makes me sad.

Okay, enough with a sad topic.
Let's move to the better one.

I have found an apartment!!!
It just a small, simple one but I have my own bathroom.
It's important. Seriously.
I'm not ready to share my bathroom with strangers yet. Haha.

I like that place so much. It just ten minutes from my future college by public transportation. The environment is nice and it's at the second floor.
I think I would not have found a better place.

After almost two weeks exploring the city with my aunt and cousin, finally I got it.
Mom has given me her agreement as well and in my next visit, probably with my luggage too, mom and AB will come with me.
My brother is having holiday at the time so he can come.

Actually, he's soooo excited to go. It's been a while since we have a family vacation. We can use this opportunity to have one.
Beside, AB is very curious about the place I chose. Knowing him, he will go around the area just to make sure it's safe.
I have a feeling mom and AB will stay with me in my first week in college.
Well, not just a feeling, I heard them planning it. IN FRONT OF ME.
They said they're worried since it's the first time I will sleep in strange place.

*sighs* I know they love me but sometimes they show it in silly ways. XD

For example, in my first day searching the apartment with my aunt, Mom and AB called me almost every hour.
It almost made me lost of my patience. Even my aunt shook her head in disbelief, seeing their reaction.

Maybe I shouldn't worry about them now. I'll move next month so I'll just think about it later. XD

Now, now.
It's Ramadhan month for Muslims, right??

I do not celebrate it but...

I LOVE this month.
And AB loves it too. This month is our favorite month.

Why??
Because in this month, almost every public space has a food bazaar.
Seriously, almost every housing area has a place filled with stalls of food. It's like the habits of Ramadhan month in my country.
There are MANY kinds of food, drinks, dessert, fruits and pastry we can choose.
Sweet food, salty, spicy. You name it. Even the food that’s hard to find in other time can be found in the bazaar. They start to sell it from three o'clock in the afternoon until six.

AB and me do not celebrate it but we can spend an hour just to walk around the bazaar, looking for things to buy.
I know an hour is too long just to buy meals but there are sooooo many stalls and we both were too excited.
It's hard to choose it. Hahaha.
Gosh, it's a heaven for a food lovers like us!
We almost went to the bazaar every day. Sometimes mom came too.

The moments I spent with them felt really meaningful lately.
Maybe because I knew it will be hard for me to meet them when I'm busy with college later.
I know it's silly. There are a lot of technology to communicate right now, but still.....the presence of a real person beside you and on the screen is different.

When I'm about to enter a college, AB will finish his.
He is going to graduate soon. Maybe his graduation ceremony will be held in one or two months after my study begins.

My brother will be an employee soon.
Haha. I'm so proud of him.

Well, AB and I have talked about something. It's a secret, so I forbid you to tell this to our mother. XD
We have planned to ask mom to stop working in one or two years.
We thought it's time for her to enjoy her life. Maybe she can go around and visit her brothers and sisters.
At the time, we hope that we will be able to make money by ourselves. It's our time to think about her, right??
AB said he will have a good job to replace mom as the one who makes money in our family.
As for me, I'll work hard to get the scholarship. And part time job won't hurt me.

Humans plan their lives but it is God who decides it.
I wish He listened to this prayer. Because making mom happy is my biggest dream.

*sighs*
Did I just say something sad again??

Dang!!!
