How can I get here? At this point of life.
I've been living for 18 years; well I'm still so young but there are lots of unlucky teens out there can't get reach this age - I got my right to be grateful. Coming from Lampung at the age of 8. Got into St. Laurensia and held back in the 3rd grade for another year since I was too young to get into 4th grade. Transformed to be a go-green boy in the 9th grade. Becoming a nationalist too a year later. Lately my religious view grew to be more moderate. Hating conservatives. Wanted to major Environmental Science in US in grade 11 after the soccer-player-dream. Confused. Altered to Urban Studies. Confused, again. It then became Hospitality. Again, confused. Now decided to take Industrial Design.
Targeted ITB. Went to Bandung for a month for drawing lesson. The test day came and failed. Depressed. Boosted. Back to Bandung for another lesson for 3 weeks, now, targeted Itenas. Accepted. And just a week ago doubted with my decision in taking industrial design.
I know my life is not that hard. I'm lucky enough to have a caring family, eat 3 times a day (or even more), healthy body, lots of friends, good school, good house, and more. There are millions of teens about my age or even younger who have no parents and have to grab a weapon to fight in a war; bloodlust. Or those living on the streets begging for money everyday and can't go to school and have a normal teen life. I'm lucky.
But that's why I am thinking.. just tell me how can I get here?
