Today's yapp cs I can't sleep; Gengsi Is Not An Solution, Be Friendly - Be Kind. Selamat Wisuda, love y'all 😭✋🏼
Hey Puannn, I just need to vent or share this somewhere because it’s been weighing heavily on my mind.
Lately, it feels like I've been put in places where I keep noticing people celebrating milestones completely alone. I feel strange day by day thinking I should've not fast response and caring long the way for the people I've met; like I shouldn't care that much or being friendly to others. Mungkin dijawab Tuhan kali ya, always amazed but idk if I could take this moment slightly.
A few days ago, I ran into someone celebrating their birthday all by themselves at a coffee bar. Gw kebetulan notice side-hearing obrolan dia sama barista nya (join table, sebelahan); i nimbrung told her happy birthday while lanjut chitchat with my friends :) \*she's so pretty and kind
But today... today was different settings. I was out trying to clear my head and work on my papers, and I saw a girl who had clearly just graduated (buset, make up cakep abis wisuda - bawa buket). But she was sitting completely alone, I compliment her saying she's so pretty then tell her pengen lulus juga (as a normal mahasiswa akhir semester, sorry entp - social butterfly ))):
I don't know what came over me, but I couldn't just ignore it. I noticed her, smiled, and struck up a tiny conversation just to acknowledge her achievement and validate her day. We talked for a bit, and I could see her mood completely shift. She looked genuinely happy after that.
Before we parted ways, she handed me a small note. She wrote that I literally just saved her life because she had been planning to disappear, feeling like her messed-up graduation was the final straw (no one of her family hadir, ditinggalin dan gada temen deket).
I'm talking about this to one of my friends juga, he said today liat self harm di campus park after wisuda. I don't think dunia lagi fine, i just hope all the best for yuuu :( please take a good care of yourself.
\----
So please, if you see someone hitting a milestone alone in public, just smile or say congrats - maybe ada yang juga baru saja lulus wisudaaa (congratss teman-katinggg!!!) if you ever see this, I'm so incredibly proud of u guyss!! you shined so bright today.
ps: drop me by pm your sempro, semhas, pendadaran, perayaan if the schedule-location is possible or even online I'll surely come 😔✨❤️❤️🩹
