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.
