Kalo Gede Mau Jadi Apa?

Once upon a time, there was a girl who strongly believed in herself. She had always knew what she wanted to do with her life. Since she was a young child, she had been equiped with different abilities and being supported to do anything she had ever wanted to develop herself. Well, except being a journalist, an archaeologist, and a laywer (you soon will discover why she wanted to become all that...)

Started to read at 4, read The Bible as it was the first book her parents ever bought for her. Started to drew, wrote, wrote, and wrote again. Had music lesson, foreign language lesson, sport activities, had friends at school... As her folks had never banned her to watch or read anything beyond her age limit, she grew up knowing maaany things just a lil' bit too early, and that made her thought her friends were just childish. She likes making friends with boys better, since she strangely discovered that boys are not as hypocrite as girls in many simple ways.

She once thought that she would become a surgeon. Having a high hope of helping many unfortunate people. Ever wanted to joined the Red Cross, Green Peace, and produce affordable body substitute for the inadequates. Fond of watching "Reasonable Doubt", "E.R", she used to think that in her country she could experienced any of those displayed on screen. But through reading the newspapers, she soon discovered that it is not that fun. And seeing blood flowing all over, human body in parts, or smell the stink corpse were not her favourites either. She realized that after one sunny morning her classmate accidentally bang his head while swimming together. The blood blended with the pool water and scared the hell out of her. The dream of becoming a doctor had dissapeared ever since. Became a lawyer and archaeolog also seem more impossible each day. Eventhough deep down she really wanted to proved that there are no such things as million-year-old Dinosours. Dinosours did existed, but they weren't as old as people predicted. But then again, there were no such thing as a woman archeologist... at least not in her parent's dictionary.

Days gone by, and she's finally finished her school years. She became a generalist that is capable of doing many things, but really confuse in what to specialized. She just wanna do what she likes and make the best of it, actually. But up 'till now she hasn't discovered what it is that she really likes and crave for.

She just know that she does not strongly believed in herself anymore...
