Stepping into a new journey

Hi!

I have been busy with all the planning for an event on the end of October, it was a success!

Now, here I am writing a momentos about what happened yesterday and what will happen in the future. I am sitting on my office chair writing this entry in my laptop while imagining laying around in a beach towel. You know how it feels when you miss your hometown, try to pretend that I was there.

Yes, when you see the title, you will be wondering what is it about. Stepping into a new journey might refer to new career path, new study, new hobbies, and even new life. I am stepping into new door with my long time partner, Rangga. Back then, we never thought that we will decided to be together, and we actually committing to make it happen this year. A lot of trouble, ups, and down of course. Nobody is perfect but we try to support each other. Having a commitment with someone is a big job, I guess. It involves a big effort and commitment to able to put this step into your timeline.

For me, marriage is not the goal. It is just a part of reaching my life’s goal. People might have different understanding and approach to this word. When I was younger, I am afraid of it, all that responsibility and tiny bits of it. Then, why finally I get married? First, I do not find any other man who are compatible enough to face my regular up and downs as he does. I feel comfortable and irritated around him at the same time, because basically we are totally different. Second, he is such an awesome person. He knows what he is doing and he loves it tremendously. That is a quality that I adore about him. People said that you should know by your heart when it comes to marriage, but I guess heart is not the only things we have to lean on, right? I believe that my decision to get married is not only because I am in love with my partner, but there are also logical reasons that I thought about.

When we decided to take a step further, we know exactly what we are going to face, not alone though, but together. I believe that both of us creating a support system to reach our dreams (It’s not only a common dream, but each dream that we have individually).

So, how was the celebration of our union? To be honest, super tiring but exciting at the same time, can you imagine! I am so thrilled that many of my good people were there to celebrate it. We planned to have a very simple wedding with only a wedding ceremony, but believe me, in Indonesia, wedding is not always about you and your partner (for me at least, the whole family have each of their part on the wedding). That day, we greeted hundreds of people during the reception, trying to keep smiling in spite of that tight undergarment which makes me bathed in sweat. I was exhausted. The reception ended and I slept the whole noon.

After that hectic day, I finally have a perfect holiday with my partner and some of our friends. We rented a villa near Kuta, Lombok. Enjoy a sunset, swim at night and play game in the pool, snacking and talking about random things. I know that life is good and I am so blessed.

Road ahead is a mystery but I have a hands to hold to walk along and enjoy the view. Thank you for reading this cheesy entry. Anyway, I will be back with another story on our performance in Pesta Boneka #6. Yass!
