Here Comes The Sun

Thursday, December 28th, 2006

Whitekdi2006_027_3 It was like 2 weeks ago, when I celebrated New Year of 2006. Now, December has almost ends, time goes too fast. I might forget of my resolutions. But there’s nothing left to forgive, because you never turn back time.

2006 may become my best year ever. I finally got what I wanted. I reached what every student and young people dream about. Indeed, I can’t sit and easily satisfied. I should continue dreaming and reach my future goals. As you may know that my presence in this country is to study. But I figured out that there so many things that more precious than that. Friendship!. Hell yeah, having a multinational friends from all over the world is totally new for me. Daily speaking without using my mother language was killing me at the beginning. Language, for some reasons look imponderable. While coming here has opened my eyes that language is one of success key. You may believe it or not, but I do believe now. I abandoned my France language since I failed to continue to the next level. My Hankuk is also less improved (read: failed) for the last 10 months. I have no idea why it is difficult to study language. I keep hearten my self that there’s some people who has given a special ability for learning language since they’re born, which some are not, like I did. My friends always laughing at me, whenever I come-out those reason. They thought that was the only excuse that I had.

Friendship. I have so many good friends here. They have different characters, personalities and cultures. It is very interesting to learn those, or should I called, to understand them. I’m not a smart student at school but thankfully I don’t have to be the smartest one to have many friends. I do have many friends. Both Koreans and Internationals friends. Sometimes I felt sorry for those who were smart but they became nerd which normally facing difficulties on its society. I can’t imagine living alone without friends. We did many things together, no questions how many activities that we had during this year. Yet it is difficult to lose one of them right?
Some of my friends have already gone to their home countries. Some were continuing their dreams. Which some still in school too. All of us have an optimistic and dreams of our future. Nobody wants to become a loser in this freak world. 

The greatest experience of the year is to open my minds. I learned so many things. I open my mind and explore that there are so much things that you can get, if you are willing to try. The opportunity is there, in front of your eyes. Now I believe that anything is possible if you want to try, learn, study or whatever the name is. Be an optimist not pessimist, I kept saying these words in my blog, which is damned true. So, in my opinion a key of success is: (1) eagerness/willpower, (2) optimist, (3) opportunity, (4) chances.

I don’t want to be cocky, I am nothing comparing to you guys,. But believe me, because I used struggled before too. And after you reach goals, always remember when you are in a hard time. So it keeps your spirit alive. Keeps your dream alive friends!!
