Back to Real Life

After having a short yet meaningful vacation in Belanda, finally I came back home yesterday. Jakarta!! :) Should not be too happy, because i'm back in real life again now, back to work (whoah, lots lots of paper on my desk!), and Marthijn is not coming with me to jakarta yet (well, actually will be in 2weeks from now, insya allah)... But hey actually, it is not that bad! Despite the fact that i gain 2kg in only 10days of vacation and the fact that the traffic in jakarta is getting worse and worse each calendar day, it is now Ramadhan di jakarta. And having ramadhan in jakarta is a lot better than having it in anywhere else in the world.. The closer you are to people that are close to you (aka. family and bestfriends), the better it is for ramadhan. So it is good to be in jakarta during this month, for the ramadhan atmosphere and all that. And actually i am very much looking forward to it. Moreover, I miss the cheap sushi.

Back to work today and as always, there are many many many things to do after vacation. But strangely, today I am really into working -unlike the last 1month-, like i am quite excited to see the day. Is it related to the fact that Marthijn will be joining me in jakarta in 2weeks? Probably! Sometimes it is amazing to realize how the presence of the loved one affect your daily life quite a lot. Hmm, again, i am being hopelessly romantic... :)

Anyway, back to real life, I cannot complain a lot. Knowing that Marthijn will insya allah be here very soon is like seeing sunshine in horizon.. it energizes me.  And after all, it was a beautiful short vacation I had... `And i am planning to write a short journal on that.. if time allows. :)
