Birthday

This month Allah gave me another time to remain alive. On top of that, he blessed me with so many first(s) in my life. I could say, all of them was beyond what I'm asking for.

So, as I wrote here I moved to a new city. New country. I felt complicated on the night before my birthday. Eventually I ended up calling one of my closest friend. I weep. I told him that I don't want to celebrate my birthday alone. Well, to be fair I never really celebrate it. 

Yet, here in foreign country I hate the idea being with myself. I cried because I knew then that my roommate was going to a concert. Without me, since our idol was different.

I remember that freezing night spent midnight outside dormitory. Withstanding the cold just to speak to my bestie in another side of world. 

Then, can I say it was a miracle? 

When I least expected it, my roommate and a senior threw a little celebration. They even prepared cake and gift for me. I can't express my feeling clearly that time. But I knew that I'm forever grateful for them. I can feel their sincerity toward me. I may not say it out loud, but maybe if you guys reading this: thank you so much! You don't know how much it means for me.

That day we had Korean class. I, still not sure what I was going to do to spend my birthday, shamelessly asking for companion. LOL. 

"I don't want to spend my birthday alone"

"OK birthday gurl, what do you want to do?" - that was my classmates. Even we just met and interact for a few months, I'm kind of touched on how they respond me and even granted my wish :")) so precious.

So I had lunch with them.

Walked to nearby park and sightseeing Han River.

Did my first noraebang (karaoke) here in Hongdae.

Finished with a random photo box. LOL. I can't believe they really went along everything I want.

They also showered me with gifts T_T

I remember feeling loved, blessed, and my heart was full. Even writing this again (I scribbled on my journal earlier) can bring smile in my face.

Thank you for everyone who's staying beside me.

Thank you for cheering me up.

Thank you for...being here :)
