Wow! Today is Friendship day!!
To be honest, I never celebrate it. I did not even know we have this day. I read a blog about friendship day written by Rajesh. After reading that blog and a comment from Junko, that reminded me to a stupid mistake I have made which I could not forget hehe. It happened when I was in my first year at junior high school, here goes the story...
I like English so much since I was a kid. I always watched Sesame Street and took notes for every new word they gave in the video. I was so proud of my English and thought that I was better than others. I really did believe that :D
One day, my friend gave me a notebook and asked me to write personal information such as name, address, birth date, etc. Well, just imagine a CV :p We (little girls) used to do that. I do not know about kids nowadays, are they still doing that or not. Well, so I did it. I wrote my name, when I was born, where I live, hobbies... Some would also add a quote or verses and so did I. I copied a quote about friendship, but I wanted to make it different. I translated it to Indonesian. I was so proud of myself that time after I have done the translation. Reaaal proud :D :D
Years later, somehow, I realized I have made a mistake with that translation and I imagine my friend is laughing hard reading it now :D That if she still had that book. That time, everything seemed fine and correct for me. The translation, I meant. The first verse, the second and then the last one, but one word... After I know the meaning, that one word destroyed all my pride. :D :D :D Can you guess which word is that? I give you a picture as a clue :D
Some like goldship,
Some like silvership, but
I like one ship
That is friendship
P.S.
Oh, did some of you realize that we have an AutoRecover button here? I did not realize it after I lost my blog that I have written for hours >:( Argh! All of my effort is gone with a single click!! I should have noticed that button before. Or maybe next time I will write it first in my PC and then copy it here after it is ready to publish, just as Ryszard told me to. :S

I tried to remember what I were write in my childhood but i couldn't remember, the only thing that I can remember is France, I'm all the time speaking about it, wishing to live there and I'm still do it now, I don't know weather the wish come true or not :)
happy friendship day to all of you :)
LOL yes indeed, funny and embarassing hehe..
Thanks a lot Kimmy :)
Thanks for everything. You left EC and back again, and you said that I was one of EC members you remembered while you were not here :) I was so touched and happy when you said that :) Never knew I can stay in someone's heart just like you let me in to your heart :)
