Hai,
Last Sunday, May 8th 2011, was Mother's Day. Happy Mother's Day to all mom and mom-to-be in the world.
Actually I don't really pay attention to Mother's Day but since it's happening in twitter so finally I realized it. Do you know that every country has their own day for mother's day? I don't. I just knew it. Most of the country celebrate it on Second Sunday in the month of May. For Indonesian, Hari Ibu, is on December 22nd.

Another Face of Life
Oh hai,
I know it still long way to go. Since my engagement and now am preparing for the wedding. To be honest, I don't feel something growing physically after I know that I am going married. Like I don't learn to cook or any kind you called it a wife stuff. Because I think it's not a prior, I can learn afterward and even more my fiancee cooks better than me. ^^V
I must be lying if there's nothing happen. It is happen but more inside of me. I think to have an agreement within my self is more important. I mean heading to a new stage where I feel need a lot of effort and understanding I need to set up my heart. Determined my self. Truthfully, I've seen a lot of marriage and its problem-a long time marriage or even the new one. A heartbreaking problems.
I've seen a lot of women demanding their partner to understand them more. I've seen a lot of men showing their love which unmatched with their women and children. I've witness cheating. I've witness unfairness. I've witness happiness and sadness. I know nothing is perfect. But when you've seen all this kind of stuff. Falling in the same spot with them won't it become a waste of time in learning?
Cheers,
Sofia
