I was.

Not mine.

I was a freshman back then and we were grouped into 10-12 students with two mentors.

We were clueless about the future yet excited at the same time.

“My name is Nasya,” i said. And we took turn to introduce ourself to the others. Until one of the member of my group introduce her name.

She’s from faculty of medicine. And we curiously asked, 

“What is your motivation to be a doctor?”

“I’m from Ternate and there’s only 1 or 2 anesthesiologist, so I want to become one.”

(If you’re reading this, hi!)

And looking back at all the conversations, reasons, choices before this point of my life, I wish I had such a good reason for what I’m doing right now like she did.

Hope you guys find one :)

It’s the last day of 2021. Thank you for all the lessons and cheers to many more life choices!

Cita-cita.

I post regularly on my art dump account @madebynaye.

Waktu kecil, kira-kira usia SD, aku hanya suka gambar, nari, makan pakai menu sayur bayam dan lele goreng. Kalau ditanya cita-citanya jadi apa, aku jawab,

Jadi pelukis.

Kalau sekarang bertanya kepada orang-orang, cita-citanya bukan dokter, insinyur, atau guru. Jawabannya bukan lagi sebuah profesi tetapi harapan dalam bentuk gambaran diri 10-20 tahun lagi.

Kalau begitu, aku yang tanya, cita-citamu apa?
