How it Feels to be The Youngest

Being the youngest child in the family is not always easy. My life was not easier at all just because i am the youngest. Maybe, if you aren't the youngest child, you'll say something like this.

"You live the easiest life."
"Our parents give you everything, right?"
"Your problem is not as big as mine."
"You're dating? Stop it, little kid."

and the most annoying statement like this.

"You're still a little kid."
"Anak kecil."

They don't care if you're 20, 30, or even 40 years old. For them, you are always a little kid. And little did they know, it's the worst thing ever.

But sometimes, they treat you like you're a fully grown up adult. They told you their problems that you don't even understand. No, i'm not saying that is a bad thing. It's a good thing because you can choose your life wisely based on their experience ha.

Being the youngest child means you are a little sister or a little brother for everyone in the family. You have to love your siblings equally, including their little family (if they're married). But, whatever, you can choose your way of life anyway.

Luckily, i jump into faculty of humanity. Where you are taught to be a human and how to treat other human being haha. So i don't mind being the youngest child. I can handle it.

I can stand for my own opinion. I can choose what to do, where i want to go, or who i want to be with. I know my own worth. I learned that nobody have the rights to choose how am i suppose to live. And the most important thing is, i can always say "no" to everyone.

Saying "no" doesn't mean you hate them, eh? Saying "no" doesn't mean you don't respect your parents. Saying "no" doesn't mean you don't love your siblings or your friends. It's just a normal thing to do. It's a normal thing to do to love yourself, to keep yourself sane.

Finally, i don't know what i just write here. It's just some random thoughts that goes in my mind lately. If you're reading this, i hope you don't consider this as a wasting of time. Even if it is, then nevermind hahaha.

I don't write this to be read by other people. I write this because i feel like i need to write  down some of my thought. I write this to lighten up my mind. I need important knowledge more than random thoughts in my mind, so i did this.

Live happily.
Read more books.
Meet more people.

You, little kid.

Thoughts on Birthday

Birthday should be one of the special day in a year. Not because of the present you will get, but for me, it's because of the prayer. Birthday is beautiful because of the people who celebrate your birthday come with all those good wishes. Have a long life, be happy, have a joyful birthday. Simple words, but i love it the most. Some people also add on extra beautiful words. Thank you for being born. Thank you for holdin on til now. Or even thank you for being my friend. Thank you for spending your life with me. I can't hold back my tears when i read all those words in my birthday greeting chats or letters. I'm so thankful. Receiving presents and foods on my birthday is indeed make me happy. But, a simple "happy birthday" is really enough. I'm so thankful even with that simple phrase. Birthday is not about gettin all those presents. It's also not about partying all night long in a 5 star hotel. It's about sincere prayer your families, your friends, or ev...

Magang Selama Liburan

Halo. I'm here, eating Surabaya Snow Cake while writing this post. Itu lho, oleh-oleh 'kekinian'-nya Surabaya. Kuenya enak kok, karena gue enggak harus ngantri HAHA, tapi gue bermasalah motongnya karena pastry (?)-nya ancur duluan sebelum gue selesai motong. K, skip. Karena gue udah 19 tahun, gue enggak mau terlalu banyak nyusahin orang tua gue lagi. Gue harus bisa lebih mandiri, nyari uang buat jajan-jajan lucu. Jadi, gue memutuskan untuk magang. Kerjaannya enggak keren-keren banget, enggak susah juga. Iya, gue magang jadi tukang cuci baju. Enggak keren kan? Tapi selama nunggu mesin cuci berenti muter, gue bisa zumba, nonton kartun, baca novel, makan, hem... apa lagi ya? Kegiatan itu gue lakuin selama gue liburan. Gue ngelakuin kerjaan itu sukarela, gue enggak minta bayaran. Uang buat jajan-jajan lucu gue dapet dari kantong-kantong baju atau celana yang gue cuci. Biasanya kan orang-orang pada suka lupa tuh ngeluarin uang di kantong. akhirnya kecuci deh. Nah, uang...
