Grandparents 50th Anniversary
When The Past Call Me
Wake Me Up When July Ends
Yes, I changed a bit the title of Green Day. It should be "Wake Me Up When September Ends", but I changed it July. This month is really special to me, especially July 2010. Let me tell you why.
My birthday is in July. It's July 13 to be precise. Then other birthdays, my brother Yudha in July 22 and my uncle in July 30. Not to mention my grandparent anniversary in July 19. You know what? It's their 50th anniversary!!! That's from my family. Let's add the in-laws my grandparents have. LOTS of my relatives celebrate their birthdays and anniversaries in July. Not to mention the succeed of my cousins advance to the next class. So that's why I personally called that July is Month of Celebration.
But the most important thing is,,, finally my Mum's here!!! Yes, she came back from Abu Dhabi for one-month leave. For 3 years, she worked in Abu Dhabi. For 3 years, I haven't seen her. That's why, when she came back on July 3, me and my brother very excited to welcome her home. I can see in her eyes that she missed us, too. That's why, during her stay for one month, we went to several places that became our memory. Like, we went to eat bakso at Apotek Rini Rawamangun, went to Blok M and many other places. I also ask her to come to my office and I will treat her lunch. Later that day, Grandma told me that Mum told her how proud she is. She proud that for 3 years of her absence, I finished my college and by my brother's side in his special days. She proud that I can work in a good place, inside a nice building. She proud that I at least I can pay my own electricity bill and Grandma's electricity bill. I know Mum is not the type who speaks freely about her feelings. So heard what she said to Grandma, made me feel... happy.
I tried to updated her about our lives in the past 3 years. The first night she arrived, I told her about my love life. That I broke up with Mr. Frog a week before her arrival. Mum encouraged me to be a brave young woman. She asked why, I just said that I think Mr. Frog wasn't meant for me, although I loved him so much. Mum said that I will find a better man than Mr. Frog and she always pray for that. Having my Mum in that difficult time, really helped me a lot.
Too bad she only got 1 month. In August 3, she was on her way back to Abu Dhabi. I can't go with her to the airport. She said no need to go to the airport since I must go to work. She went to the airport with my brother only.
That day, I kinda thought, July is like a dream. Because Mum is here for a short time. But she told me, and whole family, that she will back for good in the next 2 years. Keep praying for her everyday. Love you Mum!!!
