My best friend's wedding

I have a friend.
I've known him for 13 years now.

One of the nicest and kindest persons i've ever known.
A great leader, a good friend, a helpful brother...

Lawu, Semeru, Merbabu, Sumbing...berapa gunung yang pernah kami jelajahi bersama ya?
Terutama Sumbing! ^_^
Karena dia terjebak bersamaku yang terkilir disana, dan kami semua sampai di Jogja sehari lebih lambat.

We love the mountain so much...

A smiling face.
Someone you can share your laughter and your worries.
A warm heart.
Someone with strong morale and caring heart.
Tertawanya akan membuat orang lain ikut tersenyum.
Semangatnya akan membantu orang lain terus berjalan.
Dia adalah salah satu dari sedikit orang yang bisa menyimpan rahasia.

I used to call him Indian when we were at high school.
Don't know whether he knew that or not :P

Ketika aku mulai menyukai gunung, almarhum Papah memberiku sebuah kompas. Kompas tua yang beliau pakai sejak masih sering bertugas di pedalaman Kalimantan.
Beberapa tahun yang lalu di Bandung, sahabatku meminjam kompas itu. Dan menghilangkannya.
It broke my heart, and i think he knew it really well.
But years went by, and i forget about it.

Like vitamin C in Graduation song said :
So if we get the big jobs and we make the big money,
When we look back now will our jokes still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school,
Still be trying to break every single rule?
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us round,
Or will these memories fade when I leave this town?
I keep, keep thinking that its not goodbye,
Keep on thinking its our time to fly

Maret 2006, dia meninggalkan sebuah kotak kepada adikku Mala di Jogja. Waktu itu aku masih di Balikpapan. Isinya adalah sebuah kompas, dengan sebuah kartu kecil berwarna hijau.

So, my friend, like what you wrote on that card
"Kagem sahabatku, bahagiaku untukmu..."

Kapan-kapan kita naik gunung lagi ya ^_^
