This is Where I Begin

reverie |ˈrevərē|
noun
a state of being pleasantly lost in one's thoughts; a daydream

One's thoughts can hardly be honestly composed down into words. Though the effort of translating thought into words is an art I'd like to call literature. This is what I would like to do; translate my thoughts into something that you can read, unlike my actual thoughts. Writing has often been what I would go back to when I was having a hard time. I've kept journals for as long as I know and each time I glaze over them, I'm enlightened with the thoughts I've had when I was younger. Many things that I would have forgotten if I would not have recorded them in pure simplicity of going through the stage of having a diary with a cute name such as 'Katie' for example.
I am a girl of only 16. Born and lived in the heights of the Himalaya's, India. Raised the next 9 years in Selangor, Malaysia. I was 7 when I thought that my life was so boring and ordinary. I thought it would take forever for me to turn 14. Now at every birthday, I double my age and see how fast it is all going to fly by. The summer of 2007 was where my hypothesis of my life was turned upside down. I moved to Salatiga, Indonesia. I spent the next 3 years there. Those 3 years where spent with many happy times yet also many tears. Learning times, learning times. I'm currently living in The Netherlands. I have many friends to love, my family around me & my whole life ahead of me. I hope to regularly share my thoughts, the adventure that I am on, will have and am planning. Anyone is welcomed to join in whatever way they can to be a part of something that I believe to be magnificent.

I am Stefanie Tan,
and I'm learning from the life that I have been given.
