August.

The month of August is one my favorite month in a year. This year is my 18th August in my life, I finally turned 18th years old several days ago. Two years more to reach my twenties. I do not feel so-young anymore.

Thank you 17th for all the sweet and sour memories. I finally made my first money before my 18th birthday. What I mean here is, I finally made money with what I have already learned for years in school (because honestly I made my very first money in elementary school by selling things xD). Well, maybe it is not special for you that already made money in young age but for me it is one of my achievement.


Last year I made a decision to continue my university abroad which means I have to live far far a way from home. I celebrated my 17th birthday 1,749 miles from home with no party nor birthday dinner with family. I felt desperate with all the culture shock, language that I'm not fluently with, and new friends that I haven't found yet. I can not give up by things like that, because it is all the decision that I've made and I have to take the risk. Now, I'm not really pass from all of that struggle but hey I'm trying to! 18, I am ready!

18, I'm ready!
