Today the weather is mostly cloudy; seem the sun is shy to appear.
Hmm.. doing ordinary things make me bored but doing nothing is impossible.

When I was cleaning-up my bookshelf I found the VCD of my friends in AMDI. And I don’t know why, I was willing to watch that again. Acha accompanied me to watch, and she was happy when she heard her name saying. When I was watching that and listening what they thought and said about me, I felt my heart was up and down. God I really miss them. I just think that I haven’t done anything good for them yet and 10 years was not enough for me to make a big contribution.


After that, I browsed internet, just wanted to know the current news about Astra International and wishing that Astra is still a good company. Astra is a big company and I grew up and being matured in there, from nobody and then being somebody. Through my job in Astra, I could express myself and share my knowledge and experience with others, although it could be stress, but it made my life more dynamic and meaningful.

I am talking to myself that I should to be more patient and always keep in my mind that I have a big dream to go back to campus and being knowledgeable. I wish that someday, I can make it happened and I can contribute my knowledge to my family and my country. I still remember my best friend in AMDI, Mbak Ida Rotua said something good in my farewell party “Never give up Dyan, If there is a Will, there is a Way”. Hmmm.. wish Allah always bless me & my family.

Today is 4th of July holiday, we have a plan to go to gathering event in my friend's house in Maryland. We go there at 2.00 PM, and we meet many new friends in there. All of them from Indonesia, they are very welcome and warm. I feel that I just meet my relatives in there.

At 8.00 PM, after we eat dinner together, we go to Naval Academy Bay Bridge in Annapolis to watch fireworks because today is Independence Day of America. We already prepare everything, such as mattress, folded chair and snack. To go to the bridge, we have to walk and look for a place that is comfortable to sit.

And after dark, the fireworks start. And wow...its beautiful, the colors like American flag, blue and red. That fireworks live for about 15 minutes.
