When I first stepped into that
school, I didn’t have any idea that this school will own a large space in my
heart. I had no idea, not even a bit, that those people I met in my first day,
will be the people I care the most. My fellow schoolmates, whom I don’t really
know well at my very first day at school, will be the people that shared
laughters and tears together. This place that seemed unfamiliar at the very
first time. This place that I proudly say my highschool. This place that I
would miss the most in my future days, SMAN 3 Yogyakarta.
Today,
May 20th 2014, the news is out. All of us graduated. Tears and the sigh of
relieve are everywhere. We made it through the three years of highschool.
Suddenly it hits me, that my highschool years almost over. There is a hole in
my heart, reality sinks in, and I couldn’t help but feeling at lost. There will
be no days where we sat in the classroom, making fun at each other in the
future. Days when we shared ridiculous jokes, only us would know. Days when we
skipped school with the whole classmates. Days when all of our problem seemed
to be out of hand, but nevertheless we solved it anyway. Days when I cried, but
they said it will be fine and it is. Days when I laugh, and we shared the fun.
Days I would miss for sure.
I have
been heartbroken. I have been ignored. I have been hurt. But I ended up standing
on my two feet and beat all of those problems. I ended up laughing at all of
those memories. I ended up with a big smile on my face. My highschool years
wouldn’t be wonderful if it’s not because of my friends. Friends as close as a
family. People I can count on. We know deep down, that we can count on at each
other. They wouldn’t look away, but they spread their two arms and offer a hug.
Telling each other warm words. Like “Thank you”, “Sorry”, and “I am glad to
have you”. There is no other people as weird, quirky, annoying, nice, playful,
kind, and wise, as these people. Those guys are one of a kind. I have no
regrets in my highschool years thanks to these people.
Least I want to say,
“Thank you for all the laughters and tears we shared”
“Sorry if I haven’t always been there for you guys”
“I am glad to have you guys as my friends”
and,
“I’ll miss you guys every single day of my future days”
My dear schoolmates, Padmanaba 69
