February 16th 2008. I wasn't accepted to a company that I really really wanted. I was shocked and surprised that it didn't turn out like the way I expected. I was quite optimistic that I would be accepted. Well, anyway, I won't say much about the test. Frankly speaking, I wasn't accepted, and there's nothing I or anyone can do about it. End of Story.
It was a hard time for me though, after knowing that I didn't get in, I felt like the world was falling down. I didn't know what to do next, I didn't know how to face the future of my career and my life. I felt like I was at the lowest point in my life. What made it even harder for me is that I felt like I have dissapointed my parents and my grandma. But thank god they could deal with that very well.
I was such a real desperate person. A person with no more vision in her life, because everything that I planned had just ruined by the result of the test.
Then without thinking much, I sent an sms to my mom, I told her that I thought I'd better get married soon and live with Dodi in Jambi, become a housewife and try my another shot at an online business at home.
I thought my mom wouldn't agree with my idea. Well at least, not without any more discussion and bla bla bla. But surprisingly, she agreed!!! WOW!!! And that's what exactly what I meant about a silver lightning in a thunder :-)
It was really surprising, because all this time, I thought they hadn't really thought about me getting married. They wanted me to settle on my career first, or get a master degree. And that's why I hadn't talk much and seriously about marriage to them, while in fact, Dodi and I had talked about our marriage several times, but we were still waiting for the right time to tell our parents about it.
And finally, and very unexpectedly, there came the time...
Finally we could start to talk seriously about our wedding and our marriage ^_^
I'm finally getting married guys!!! Hmmm the time is still our secret, okay ;-) But we still have to wait for a couple of months, though. Because his brother is getting married too, in July 5th 2008. So we have to wait after his brother's wedding to talk more about our engagement party, wedding preparation, wedding date, and other stuff about our wedding and marriage.
But at least now the journey of our relationship is getting clearer day by day. We can now talk and discuss more about the wedding. We start to explore and find more information about wedding stuff like wedding ring, wedding place, wedding package, wedding planner, reception building, and so on and so on. It's just the date that we can't decide yet. Because wedding doesn't only involve both of us. Our wedding involves two big families, so we can't just decide the date by ourselves. We have to discuss it with our family.
It doesn't really matter right now. We still have quite enough long time to get prepared. There's still plenty of time to save our money. We don't want to rush on everything. Slowly but sure, wedding here we come... ^_^
