Pittsburgh sore ini

Pittsburgh sore ini menyenangkan sekali! Summer sudah di penghujung, bahkan mungkin sudah mulai berlalu sejak minggu yang lalu. Tapi cuaca hari ini benar-benar tepat untuk bercanda ria di udara terbuka.

Pagi yang dingin tiba-tiba menguap digantikan dengan udara yang hangat. Cuaca yang cerah membuat semua orang bersemangat. Trotoar Oakland penuh dengan mahasiswa yang berjalan kian kemari. Jadi teringat riuh rendahnya boulevard di depan lapangan tenis (tentu saja di ITB :))

Dan sore ini, tentu saja udara menjadi lebih sejuk. Sekarang, dengan tak sabar saya menunggu teman yang menjemput saya. Kami akan ke Southside Works. Sebuah daerah pertokoan yang ramah dan nyaman. Tempat favorit saya di sana adalah sebuah ruang terbuka di pelataran Cheese Cake Factory. Ada air mancur kecil, well, mungkin lebih tepat disebut sebagai pancuran, yang menyembur dari lantai. Di sana, anak-anak kecil selalu bercanda ria bermain air. Dan saya bisa lupa waktu, walaupun hanya sekedar duduk di bangku mengamati anak-anak itu bermain air.

Thanksgiving 2020

What a crazy ride we have been riding in 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic has pretty much put our life on hold, if not going on a slower pace. I feel that we are running a marathon, and it's not over yet. The emotional toll that we have been experiencing since March is real. Everything that we used to take for granted, like meeting up with friends, birthday parties, kids activities, traveling, the convenience of doing grocery shopping anytime we want, a lot of them have been taken away from us, from my family. No more parties, no more lunch or dinner with friends, no more invitation for birthday parties, no more traveling. Perhaps my life had become too easy before the pandemic. We had to switch Nathaniel from a brick and mortar school to a cyber school. I tried to plan my grocery trips ahead of time to avoid crowds. We had to wear masks everywhere. But at least we are healthy. At least I am facing this together with my husband and kids as a family. At least I am at home that is fu...
All of a sudden my thoughts fly to my old friends tonight. How are they all doing? I miss the good old days. I am here, content and happy, but somehow I still miss them. People come and go in your life, but true friends remain in the heart, no matter where they are now, right :) ?
