Train To Dorval.
It's amazing.
There's a lot to tell about life. Here I can write freely. It's my freedom place to express myself. I am welcoming you to write as free as you want, to criticize me, to espionage or do anything you want. So, enjoy the freedom.
It's amazing.
Good Morning from Toronto.
Oh my! Another trip when I can’t go to sleep.
This is not fun at all. But I hope Canada pays for this devastating long trip. Five hours to Hong Kong, then stayed there for like another five hours. Thank God I decided to bring my BlackBook with me. Since I’m not activating my BlackBerry. It’s good to know that HKIA has free WiFi connection. So five hours wasn’t really anything back then. What is really SOMETHING is the next thing I’m going to tell you.
It’s like hell to have a long trip without being able to go to sleep. Not that I’m not trying. But the position was impossible for me to enjoy this long freakin’ trip. LOL! The flight itself was at 2.45 in the morning, which was killing me. On the plane, it turned out that I couldn’t fall asleep. Sleeping and waking up was not very delightful. What bothered me most when it became a bumpy flight while I was feeling hungry. It makes me want to “jackpot”! From Hong Kong to Toronto, it took 14.38 hours. From now on, I officially hate long trips! Well, it’s not really from now on, coz I realized that the first time I went to my sister’s six years ago. Oh yeah! And now that she’s getting married, I can’t refuse to go. Hey! I’m the maid of honor! Ha! That is why.
We are going to stay in Toronto for three nights. See Niagara Falls, meet my cousin and then take the train for another 4.5 hours to Montreal. But my sister said, there’s Internet on the train. So yes, this is why I decided to carry 9 KGs of heavy load on my shoulder, in my backpack. LOL! So lame! I really hope I’ll have fun in Canada and have some pop tarts, poutine, beavertail, malt ovaltine, and the best part is my favorite Cadbury chocolate mint!
Canada, I’m coming!
Full of hopes,

Waiting for my connection flight.
Coffee indeed for the soul in need.
Aku harus memilih jalan yang lain.
Setahun sudah berlalu. Banyak yang kudapatkan dari perjalanan selama setahun belakangan ini. Aku bertemu teman-teman yang membuat hariku pernuh warna, hatiku menyanyikan lagu riang gembira. Walau tak menutup adanya kemungkinan aku merasakan kepahitan dan kecewa. Tapi itulah hidup yang sesungguhnya. Di sini aku punya keluarga. Perselisihan, pertengkaran, kebahagiaan, keriuhan dalam tawa adalah bagian dalam keluarga. Apa pun itu, aku tetap bagian dari keluarga ini.
Aku belajar berjalan seperti bayi yang kegirangan. Perlahan aku menapaki bagian hidup yang lain, yang sebelumnya tak pernah kukenal. Banyak cerita yang membuat hatiku tak pernah hampa. Kami saling menertawakan, saling menghibur, saling menjaga. Setahun yang penuh dengan kenangan. Aku yakin, kenangan ini tidak akan hanya berhenti sampai di sini. Walaupun aku melangkahkan kaki ke tempat lain, tempat ini akan selalu jadi tempat perhentianku karena di dalamnya ada saudara-saudaraku.
Di sini aku belajar mengerti tentang kehidupan yang tidak semuanya sempurna. Selalu ada sisi yang gompal, sisi yang tidak terawat, sisi yang penuh dengan tambalan. Ada yang terlihat sempurna, tapi sebenarnya tidak. Mungkin juga ada yang terlihat bahagia, namun tidak di dalamnya. Tidak ada yang tahu. Aku hanya belajar memahami dan tersenyum saat menemukan kenyataan itu ada.
Aku akan pergi membawa semua kenangan pahit dan manis bersamaku. Tapi jelas aku akan mengunjungi tempat ini lagi, mengunjungi saudara-saudaraku di Satucitra.
Sampai nanti,
