Hello!
It's been a while since the last time I post something on this blog (well, three months are not exactly 'a while' though). But don't judge me, I have reasons!
First and foremost, I am now a 12th grader, which explains a LOT of my absence from this blog. In case you don't know, grade 12 is the final stage of high school education in Indonesia. Which means there will be exams and tests for graduation, and for our future too, because this stage is kind of crucial for it determines which university will we be in. Actually school starts on July 7th, but because we had our practical exam for Religion, Al-Quran, and Arabic we didn't really study anything back then. And then the Eid came up and we had a three-weeks-holiday (which rarely happens!), and now here I am, on my 3rd week of school.
Well, to speak honestly, us 12th graders only have approximately 7 months to learn our new materials AND to prepare for the National Exam (which consists of materials from grade 10-12), so this year is going to be hectic! (Or at least busier than last year, I'm not sure which one.)
Second, I kind of don't have anything interesting to write about. My three-weeks-holiday was just like another holiday, and I don't think there are some events I should highlight and tell you about.
Third, I rarely have my me-time lately. I don't know whether I should be happy or annoyed about this, but my sister barely leaves my room everyday. I think she almost always stays here, unless it's bed time or she get pissed at me. I think I am more of a loner now, because I enjoy solitude more than before. I guess it's just an outcome of my growing up. Well, I think I achieve much more when I'm alone than when I'm not.
That's why sometimes I get annoyed of my sister being in my room, because I can't concentrate like when I'm alone when I'm not.
And the correlation of that as my third reason, is that I enjoy writing alone. As I have told you before, I achieve much more when I'm alone than when I'm not.
By the way, after posting this, I can't promise that I'll be writing again shortly. As I have told you before, this year is the final year of my education phase in high school, so I guess most of my spare time will be used for studying instead of writing.
I hope you won't be tired of waiting!
