Me and my friend, Merry, took these photos in
January 2012 when we were really urged in joining a competition about
friendship which was held by one of girl magazines in Indonesia. The prizes
were two tickets to go on a special vacation including tons of cool activities
that we will get and photo shoot for the magazine when we arrive there. The
requirements were a short story and fun photos of us that could show our
friendship very well. So I made a short story about us, the title’s “Incredibly
Grateful Because There’s You!”.
To amuse the judges, I put lots of humor and a
bunch of our silly experiences on it. Finally we made it! After several days, a
woman called and asked me to attend the judging session few days later.

Giving honest opinion for for options. We

please!”). And more fun activities!

On the D-Day I’ve been waiting for, we created
our ‘friendship anthem’, practiced it along the trip and sang it at the ‘interrogation
period’, haha. Yeah we made it although we were only become the finalists, not
the winner. But we got many nice presents from the magazine. And a few days
later I got chickenpox (sigh) because of hard fatigue. I was wondering, if we
were succeeded in that competition, I’d probably more suffer then, hehe. Is it
a hidden luck? Because I’m still confused now.
