Happiest Day of My Life

 

Inspired by The Netflix Series titled Maid on episode 8 where they have therapy session and each of the characters need to tell their happiest day. 

Well i wanna tell you mine.

My happiest day are back from October 2018 where i am representing Indonesia at Nanying International Folklore Dance festival. It was my first time traveling outside the country, my first time traveling with plane without my parents, and my first time dancing representing for my country in a festival. It was a first time full with blessing and happiness. I can't stop saying gratitude and thanking my God for this opportunity because this is.. after all.. my dream. My childhood dream that i've been longing to have, traditional dancing and representing my country at international dance festival. 

I still remember all the places, details vividly. I even still remember how my heartbeat so fast when i enter that airplane. I was airsick for sure, 9 hours ride wasn't easy but it was worth it. Accompany by my fellow dance crew who help me a lot during the event, i am very blessed. 

Practicing the dance for 6 month, once a week become twice a week become three times a week. I never feel tired even though i have to go back from South Jakarta to Central Jakarta at night. The only time i ever complain was when we didn't practice enough and i want to practice more. 

Money? That was the least on my mind. I wanted to dance so badly, i miss it. 

And it wasn't just a dance thing, not just perfoming. But we get to meet people and other dancer all over the world, meeting Taiwanese people, and even some of their schools. It's like a school trip. A fun Taiwan school trip filled with bubble tea. Which, i love.

About 14 days in Taiwan... and on the 12 days i receive a really amazing and fantastic news... It's like God has given me the greatest gift of all time. I got a message saying i won the Ichiban Sushi Video Japan Contest and i'm going to Japan this December. Taiwan and Japan in one year?! All FREE?!!!

2018 was and will be my most amazing and the best year of my life. It's my happiest day ever.
