Vinnychan

Her name is Vinny Olivia Hera Djaya, born on January 30, 1982.
Graduated from Petroleum Engineering, Trisakti University.
The first thing came up in my mind when I met her was unique.

I've been known her for almost 7 years but I always remember that day, when I saw a girl (not yet a woman, though), with full make up in her face, with stupid face (for those who familiar with kermit the frog, u may imagine what she look like..), sit next to someone who will be "my partner in crime" for the next 4 years, astri krisnha.

With her unique style, she had been the no.1 enemy in our campus. Some people said that girls from technique major can't be beautiful. They should be like boys, no powder, no lipstick, no skirt, no high heels. But those rules didn't work on her. She always come to class with full make up, skirt (sometimes actually), high heels, with her japanese wanna be style (that's why I called her vinnychan), u know weird outfit, bubble skirt, but it was so beautiful...


Being a friend of her gave me a serious risk. Somehow, I was getting closer with her. Despite the fact that she was in the same high school with astri, I felt very convinience situation as long as I'm with her. Our friendship has been through a lot of moments. Being expelled by the entire class, yelled and slapped by our senior have been regular events in my campus life, just because she and my other friends look different. She was extraordinary, she taught me that it doesn't matter being different as long as we're in the right track. We have to fight for what we believe, we have to be ourselves, we have to be sure that we are now is because what we have done for ourselves, not because others. I've been mentally grown up with all those things happen in the past. Eventhough tears always falls down, I always felt so strong to face all those problems because I knew that she will always be with me no matter what happen. Eventhough, she's new for me, it felt that I've been known her for my whole life.

Something about her that always made me being one of grateful person, was her spirit to walk on in this life. I might know a little bit about her life, she is not wealthy, but she seems to be the richest person i've ever known with all wonderful things happens in her life. I learnt how she had to work not only in our school break but sometimes in the middle of semester too. With all those consequences, she always put smiles in her face, always cheer up my days, never regret of what happen. She taught me that this life can be so beautiful if we can through it with sincere. She also taught me to be myself instead of people said, looked, or thought.

By the time, our friendship getting closer and closer, she always be a person whom I want to share all my problems eventough there's distance between us.

Vinny, if u read this, I just want you to know, thank you very much for what you have done for me, maybe u didn't realized it, but for sure it means a lot for me. Thank you for all life lessons you have taught me. Thank you for the joy and happiness that you've brought for my life.
Thank you...
I love you... and may our friendship will last forever...
