25 Days Left
Friday, 22 November 2013 --- I was healthier this morning. I started my day in the library at 8.45. I was so glad that I could wake up early this morning and started everything early so then my mind, my body, and my soul were fresh too. It was me who loved to share my happiness to others. Every time I went into the library and walked to my favorite table, I always greeted my best old friends. They were so kind. They were Mr. Tan, Mr. Rahim, and Mr. Song. They always knew if there were so many books on my table and a note there saying that I would use those books again on the next morning day, they would not take them and put into the shelves. I am so blessed meeting them every day, especially every morning. I am so happy...happy because of meeting good people like them. I pray to God for taking a good care of them: their healthiness, families, and lives.

My second happiness was a happy news from my classmate in Malang, Mr. Daniel. He sent the news implicitly in our facebook group of Ph.D. students batch 2011. He just typed:
"Pak Nur Salam, Natalia Christiani Djahi, Mbak Nia Mika, and Eny Kusumawati...happy news."
This is language where people will comprehend and understand when they are in the same content and context. Because Mr. Daniel just only mentioned four of us plus he himself and a 'happy news', so I guessed there must relate with our scholarship which was already transferred to our bank accounts. Our study in Malang is funded by Indonesian government for six semesters since August 2011. From that scholarship, we can pay our tuition every semester, living cost, research, and education stuff. The point was that five of us were very happy because of it. In the beginning of January 2014, we prepare to pay our tuition about Rp 7.000.000,-. Thank You Lord, You have prepared and given it in Your time.
My third happiness came from Lenny, my previous staff in my workplace in Surabaya, East Java. Yesterday evening, she already complained of pain because of her contraction. The baby wanted to see the world. In that situation, she still had time to upload her status in her facebook wall. Lenny was still Lenny who I knew. There were so many comments, spirit and support given to her. She was kind and funny; that was why, there were so many friends gave their supports to her. About 2,5 hours ago (at 9 P.M.), she uploaded her new status saying that:
"Thank God...I could meet my cutie girl... She is so pretty and looks like her daddy. Her name is Kaylenn Grazia Luminto with 2.96 weight and 47 cm height. She was born at 5.39 P.M."
Finally, her struggle to give birth normally succeeded. I am so proud of her. Congratulations Lenny and David for your first baby girl. May God bless both of you to be able to nurture, raise and educate her to be a filial daughter.
