Sky and Earth

Yesterday was a big day for my buddy, E, as his team got the first place for SIMPIC 2014, an international competition. I was, and am still proud of him and his team =) This is a very amazing achievement, not only for his family, friends, and campus, but also for Indonesia! I've prayed for him for a month and God led his team to the first place. Congratulations, buddy! =)

Today is my turn to join a competition, an accounting competition at my ex-uni. Well, I even didn't pass the first round, got 18th place meanwhile they only took 10 people for the next round. Many participants had the same score, and that's why I was in that position. My friend, the Earth God, made it to the second round, but then he failed to advance to the final round. Well, it was not that I'm disappointed because of this, as I had prepared myself for less than 1 week. It would be unfair for them who had prepared themselves for a longer time than me. But I'm sad because I couldn't follow my buddy's success. Sad because he won an international competition, meanwhile me who even couldn't pass the first round of a local competition =( Haaah, I had done my best and let God do the rest. If this is what He wants, what can I say? No worries, still can join competitions from UGM. Let's keep spirit on it!

Lose Our Grip

Hmm, have been thinking this thing lately. Actually it's about the buddy that I got during the last year of SHS. Yeah, him. I was kinda surprised last Sunday when we had KoO hangout, where I could lose topics to be talked to when there were only two of us. I was afraid when the two girls left us. Afraid of the silence that occurred because of no topic to be talked of. And it happened. Since we've graduated from SHS, we rarely kept on each other's news, as he is always busy, yeah ALWAYS busy. I used to catch up with his news, but I thought that it might disturb him a lot, so I stop it. We have really lost our grip, the pace that we used to keep on. We have lost the way we share to each other. I dunno, he sees me as his best friend, so do I, but I dunno what is the level of his best friend parameter. Or is it me who just expect too high from him? I also dunno how he values a friendship, does he really mean that 'best friend' word? Know what? I feel that we are just an acquiantance now, I just dunno him anymore, despite his activities only. It's tired to struggle alone, but again, I can't let go my precious friend. Well buddy, I do really hope someday we can be the 'used to be us'...
