this evening (actually 3evenings ago) i met up with 2 of old friends, whose name, let's just say, Apple and Orange.
Apple was my classmate in high-school, and he went study overseas, so i dont get to see him often. but today we managed to finally meet. We watched movie (The Avengers) and had dinner together. We talked about many things, this time he especially told me about his trip to Europe as an exchange student.
Last spring he got opportunity to join an exchange program to Holland. Holland! Europe! The land i'm always long for stepping on T,T. He talked about Keukenhof, the famous, widest flower garden worldwide. woah! i know from stories that Keukenhof has stunning scenery and very huge flower beds, but hearing his story: Many varieties of tulipes (even one named "Teletubbie Tulipe", "N" flowers (he forgot the name -__-), very beautiful view,...
And of course, once you are in one European country, you'll easily explore almost the whole continent! He showed me the picture of La Tour Eiffel, shines so brightly and elegantly in the night scene. He also told me how tasty Belgian chocolate is, which makes me drool :Q wanna chocolate ~~
And he describes the breathtaking scenery of Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany, which is the model of Sleeping Beauty castle with Alp Hills surroundings. "The most beautiful scenery i've ever seen" he said.
All his stories just makes my dream to explore the world be even stronger. Hope someday i will really step on Europe land. Amin.
And about Orange. He was my junior, but now he clearly has much more experience than me. He won two medals in two IBO for two years straight, which secures him a seat in a well-renowned College in Singapore. Now he has grown much taller, even taller than Apple (Apple was the tallest boy in my year in high-school). As an international olympian, he also has travelled some part of the world. He's famous for that, of course. Therefore in Indonesia, he is handed jobs to teach biology in high schools for olympiad preparation. For only 3 days tutorial, he receives a really big amount of money he can treat Apple and me some fancy foods you wont imagine O,o. But personally i think he deserves that, since he's an international Olympian anyways :D there you go, Orange! Hope someday i can be the one who treat you and Apple fancy foods hahaha (cita-cita gapenting)
So many praises to Allah who Permits me to know Apple and Orange. :)
