Gold Coast Refreshing
Its has been a week after my last update of the blog. Still Today, no one can really explained why time fly so fast? Its already a week since i back from Melbourne trip. Come to think about it, I already get back to life that i used to have. It because this week its holiday for everyone at Uni or high school, the tourism and attraction places has been crowded with people. Since all my friends has been talking about their holiday... I should tell you too. Its funny that everyone started the trip on friday.

Anyway, Friday, clear sky... As me and my best mate planned to go Gold Coast with Candy and Monica (new friend, introduced by Candy). The gals were going for a time of refreshment, while we guys actually going for holidays! We stop and Habour Town (as usal for people to buy factory outlet stuff). I have to tell you that Monica is the first person who i got to know walked out from Nike shop after 5min. When we reach surfers, we couldn't find any accomodation to stay for overnight, not untill we drive pass this backpacker. We happily check it knowning that this is the place to stay over. But when we check out the next day... no one knew that it was Mardi Gas Accomodation. What is that...? ha! check it out yourself.

Spent time at The Spit were the most wonderful time for the whole trip. Just sitting down at the edge of the spit, hearing the splashing of the ocean and the breeze... I can totally forgetten about myself. I guess this is the best time to spend with God when you really tatolly connect to the nature.

Flu makes things out!
Last few days, I caught with flu and sick as well, probably because of that, my mood has been swinging like crazy. This is really bad to talked about... but what i really wanna to share is that through this whole week, I treated my friend really badly. Of course there are reasons... what I learned was that no matter what happened in friendship, we dare to take bold step and talk things out.

Friendship is something we need in life. I remember when my dad came to attend my graduation, he told me about his retirement. There are 4 things that he can't leave without it:
i) Wife, partner of life
ii) Finance, need for retirement so that still can enjoy life.
iii) House, owned it and dwell it, not spending life to pay the interest.
iv) Old Friend, especially best mate that can talk and spend time with when bore.
I can't ignore that friend is not important in life. Come back to topic, when i found my best mate, I would take my best time to spent time with. Of course there are some sweet time to spend with and sometime conflict of interest. I am talking about no matter how easy going person you are, there must be sometime that we have conflict of interest. If there are none... then this is really good. Anyway, having conflict between the friendship was such a hard thing to go through. There must involve 2 parties. But no matter which party you are... both got to have the willingness to forgive and to acceptthe forgiveness.

This happened to me. I used to know this topic about frindship really well, and i am sure everyone knows about this topic too... but when I am in the real position and real situation, this statement not just so real to me, but also something that i really cherrish about. I tend to appreciate more then before and I can gurantee that the friendship won't be the same again. Infact, we are more stronger and more hold on what these greatest gift that God had given to us.
