My best friend in forever



Talking about someone who has changed my life, she was Ervina Wulandari, my best friend. We became good friends since we were still in junior high school. She is a very powerful figure and hard working. She was the eldest of four siblings. She comes from a disadvantage family. Her father did not have a regular job while her mother is just a temporary primary school teacher in my village. Nonetheless, Ulan (her calling name) has high ideals, the same as me. We both always dream to have an educational course institution in our village. We are mutual friends who motivate each other. Ulan got confused when we graduated from high school, whether to continue her studies to pursue higher education or not as her family's financial condition is not good. In the end, Ulan decided to continue her study with the consent of her parents. During the current year, we exchanged stories about the activities of our respective lectures. We have many new experiences, new friends, and new dreams that we hear from each other.
As I have said before, Ulan is a persistent individual. In order to meet her financial needs for college, Ulan is willing to work part time as a scout teacher at her previous high school and become a reseller of oriflamme. Ulan asked me to do oriflamme business at the time, but I reject it for various reasons. One day, Ulan called me that she wanted to quit school. That news startled me. She told that his family's financial conditions are getting worse, plus her father is not working now. As the eldest child, she must think the continuation of education her brothers too. She did not want to sacrifice the future education of her brothers just to meet her needs. In October 2015, a major decision was taken by Ulan. She decided to get married. How sad I was to be abandoned by my friend. There are many dreams that we have not achieved together. But that's my best friend. Even though we are the same age, she’s always more mature than me. She hopes that by marriage she can continue her study and her brothers can still attend school as well.
Ulan taught me many things. In the past, I was a person who always felt lacking. Without realizing there are still many people who are not as fortunate as me. Ulan has changed my views that someday we will live alone without the shadow of both our parents that we are the ones who will fight for our lives. We will decide which direction to walk in our lives. In the past, I was someone who was very ignorant, but now I realize that we should not be selfish. As far and as high as any of our dreams, we still have to care about the people around us.
