Hey guys,
it's been a while since I've actively participated in the forums.
Some of you might remember me years ago when I open a nice thread titled 'Wing Commander affected our lives' (http://www.crius.net/zone/showthread.php?t=2941).
Nevertheless, I want to inform you that after years of praying, struggling, asking around and investigating, I'm setting my mind to study in USA.
Currently I'm in a SE Asian country called Indonesia. Some may know it as the archipelago country containing 13,000+ islands, few might know that our east to west borders stretches the same length as California to New York. Regardless, much like America, Indonesia is a very multicultural country, with hundreds of tribes and ethnic groups. We had our share of problems, political as well economical.
I was born in Indonesia, but had a six years of my childhood formative years in USA. My last vivid memory of America was going to Timothy Christian School in Lombard, Illinois. I left America in 1988, and never returned since then. Since then (21 years ago), I've felt a piece of me missing. My return to Indonesia was a real shock, meeting so many strange people and seeing strange places, but after many years I've finally adapted to living here (with a slight 'foreign accent when speaking the local language').
Now, after 21 years living in Indonesia, I am blessed with many friends, teachers and most important of all, a beautiful wife whom I love with all my heart. Together, finally made up our mind to continue our studies in America. I'm setting my aim on a well known university in Virginia, taking Master of Arts in Communications (specializing in Critical Studies for Cinema and Television)
I've got a GRE test this Tuesday as one of the requirements for entering the university, and I'm so nervous about it.
Please wish me luck.
