TAKING a TRIP to SINGAPORE ( Jalan - Jalan )
Singapore. Dec 22, 2005
I have 3 ( three ) Childreen named :
1. AGUSTINA Vince Sultana SITOHANG ( 2nd f/ left )
2. Sutan CHANDRA Dosma SITOHANG (1st f/left )
3. LARRYVO Handrian Bounty SITOHANG (5th f/left)
came back from Bandung to Rumbai, Pekan Baru, Riau for Christmas Season in 2005, then We all went to Singapore taking a trip ” Jalan - Jalan “ as to motivate them in achieving good results of studying in UNPAD & ITB, and also make them remembering their childhood, because They have ever gone there several times when Elementary, Junior, and Senior high schooling periods.
We lived in PEKANBARU after I had married with my Wife named ……………………..ADELINA HUTABARAT who was born in PULAU SAMBU, a small island next to SINGAPORE; so, Travelling to Singapore for her like going back to “PULANG KAMPOENG “. She always felt happy & exciting when the Ferry were crossing by the Island.
We started the life in Pekanbaru with hoping, asking , praying to GOD Assistance & Guidance for the shake of my Family, because I am an ordinary person who doesn’t have enough skill & knowledge to bear a heavy daily Load of living Cost. Actually, If You believe in GOD, HE will lead you to survive. No kinds of Problems You have & face, Let GOD help you finding the symptons How to handle & eliminate.
My Wife & I are in doubt How to bring up my childreen, sending them to School or University. We worked to gether such as to sending them to private Courses starting from 1st grade of Elementary thru 3rd grade of Senior high School. My wife has a big effort to teach or educate my childreen becoming hard & smart learners, they didn’t care about childhood needs as to playing with their Friends. My childreen are accustomed to read ” COMIC Books “ , they do like reading such even though They were student, till Now. My Wife & I always pray to GOD for the happiness & Success of my 3 childreen in their Job. They , Agustina as a Dentist ( still continue learning in UI for getting Specialist or Master in Dentistry, Chandra as a Mechanical Engineer, and Larryvo as a Geologist ) finished their study mannerly, properly & timely.
Now We as parent become free of studying Cost, but still have mentally heavy Load about their Marriage, because 2 of 3 my Children are still Bachelors ( LAJANG ).
The eldest Child, Agustina, who married with ” HELA “ Ramses J Tamba , has a pretty lady Baby named …………..SEBIRA REVAGDA OKTOBIRIYANTY born on Oct 22, 2008.
In BATAK Culture, someone was born & got the name during Baptism e. g My name is DEWASA SITOHANG, The name becomes ” AMANI AGUSTINA “ as a nick Name for the Parents, My Name will be changed to be ” OMPU NI SI SEBIRA REVAGDA OKTOBIRIYANTY “ due to the birth of my grand lady ( My daughter child f/ AGUSTINA).
The Nick Name will be re changed to be ” OMPU NI ( with out SI ) If my son CHANDRA has a baby …says..His Baby name is….supposed to be …CHOVRY, My Name ” OMPU NI SI SEBIRA REVAGDA OKTOBIRIYANTI “ will be changed to ” OMPU NI CHOVRY…( without SI…); so, OMPU NISI or with out SI….in BATAK is called GRAND FATHER or GRAND MOTHER in English.
I don’t know How to say…. How big of Happiness that My Wife & I have felt & got due to the birth of our beloved grand Lady called SEBIRA REVAGDA OKTOBIRIYANTI. REVAGDA is like an accronym given by my Wife & Me :
R ==> Ramses ( Her Father Name )
E ==> En ( And )
V ==> Vince ( Her Mother Name )
AG ==> AGustina ( Her Mother Name )
D ==> Dewasa ( Her Grand Father Name )
A ==> Adelina. ( Her Grand Mother Name )
So, Her name is alike ACCRONYM or combination of her Parents Names with her Grand Mother & Father.
My Wife & I have felt so exiciting..Happiness…and also got additional fulfillness in the needs of GOD Blessing.
Thanks GOD for everything I have had so far….You may add more….I believe that GOD knows what My Wife & I want……… I Love You All such ….Like How You love Me.
