Vanessa is an ordinary name for a girl which has a meaning of a butterfly. In 18th May 1993, Vanessa became my name. It was suggested by my uncle, Mak Hadiyanto and both my parents agreed with that name. So here I am now, a 17-year-old girl named Vanessa.
Just like the ordinary name, I’m also an ordinary teenage girl who lives an extraordinary life. Well, sometimes I just feel that my life is dull but actually if you still can live your life, whatever your life might be, it is still precious. That’s why I call it an extraordinary life.
I have a big family. My main family consists of 6 people. They are my mommy, my daddy, my brothers, my sister, and I. I have one older brother, one little sister, and one little brother. I still have 2 grandmas and 2 grandpas. Besides them, I also have so many cousins, aunties, and uncles. So I really have one big family.
I have a closer relationship with my mother’s family rather than my dad’s because my family live in Makassar which means in the same city with most of my mom’s family while my dad’s is in Pare-pare. The different location makes us rarely meet each other which make us not really close. I only spend time in Pare-pare if it is Chinese New Year or my grandparent’s birthday.
But now my grandparents from my mom’s side and my mom’s brothers are living in Jakarta so we rarely see each other now. But we somehow have managed to spend holiday together. Last Christmas we were going to Malaysia and Singapore. Last vacation we spent time in China. There were 13 of us so it’s really fun although it was rather complicated too. (I will post the pictures and the detail of our trip in China later ^^,)
Besides spending time with family, I also love spending time with my friends and of course with myself too. I have some friends who go to the same school with me since I was in elementary school. We used to spend much time together at school and even outside school. But since high school we were busy with our own activities, communities, and problems that we rarely spent time together. I also joined the acceleration class while most of my friends took the regular one. So it made us difficult to spend time together. During my high school time I spend most of my time with my classmates. We also had a great time together. =)
Well as an ordinary teenage girl, I also love shopping, chatting with my friends, watching movies, reading novels, writing, listening to music, exercising, teasing my brothers and sisters even my friends, breaking the rules, and sometimes spending times doing nothing. I also like hanging out with my friends, having fun together, and baking cake with my mom (sometimes).
At the age of 17, I graduated from high school and decided to continue my study in Sydney, Australia. I’m going there on 30th September with my mommy, daddy, and both my grandparents from my mom’s side. I have so many people who come with me =). Actually, besides accompanying me there they will also attend my brother’s graduation. For my grandparents it is their first grandson’s graduation and for my parents it is also the first one. So it’s a meaningful moment for both my parents and my grandparents.
Well it’s a bit about me and my twisted world. The rest of it will be on the next posts. Hope you guys enjoy reading it.
Cheers,
