the treasure in my past.

Good news, I got rank 5 out of 38 in the class. It was unbelievable. I thought I might not be in the best 10.

Anyway, I am, at last, having my semester vacation. It is around 2 weeks and then I will have to fight (study) harder to suceed in the final exams and get to my favourite university. I'm still hoping to go to Germany, but since Dad said that I better start here, so I'll just obey him. But it is not easy to get into that university. I just don't have the spirit. Actually, I don't really want to get there, my parents want me to. That university is the most prestigious university in the country. And that is why they want me to get there.

Last night, I went to a wedding party. The groom was a student of that university. I wanted to ask him about how to get there, but it was impossible. I did not know him and he was busy. So after saying congratulations,my grandfather and I ( I went with him) went home. In the taxi, I start thinking about my future. About how can I get to that university so that my parents will be proud of me. In the end, I reviewed my past. The first thing that come to my mind was my grandma's house. In my memory, it was a big house and I feel comfort in the house. That is my precious place.

When I was a little girl, I used to go to my grandma's house every holiday. I spent most of my childhood with grandma, and that house. My grandma's house has no AC, but comforting wind flows in and out freely. There used to be fruit trees, but they are no longer there, tsunami cleaned them up. There were problems when I was in the house. However,only that house is strong in my memory. There were funny things happened there. Most of my childhood memory involved that house.

I don't know why it is the most clear view when I close my eyes. Maybe I'm just being lame about it.

Mysteries in life is what keep me on going. I want to know about them. These mysteries are making me strong, physically and mentally. Mysteries that involve feelings, and hidden truths that are kept inside people's hearts. Those are mysteries that I'm craving to know. They will be my treasure.
