It's been so long time not visiting this very blog which my own blog. I'm sorry my pity blog.
Do you know why I choose 'Parpahae' as title of this blog? Parpahae is a term used in my homeland which mean people who come from Pahae. The Pahae is a region in North Tapanuli. Pahae also known as Luat Pahae consisting of 4 sub-districts: Pahae Julu, Pahae Jae, Simangumban, and Purbatua.
I came from Pahae Julu. I had been there for 15 years. I lived there in 2003. I moved to Balige to continue my study after graduated from junior high school. Now, I spend more than a half of my life in Pahae.
There were so many memories I found there. I still remember how I and my childhood friends went to river every Sunday. We very happily went to the river and swam. In the way back home we picked a fresh guava directly from its tree. In other time, we decided to went back home using non-conventional way. We tried to go through forest. We often found steep way, dense vegetation, and wild monkey. We have very attractive and traditional childhood there. I hope that nowadays, children in Pahae still have a chance to do the same experience as I have. This experience will be always in my heart.
-Luat Pahae, sai huingot do ho tongtong- (Luat Pahae, I remember you always)
