my 2010 reflection (Bookworm Challenge - Desember ed. 2010)

No Comments »

January:
WPT new year's eve

  1. New year's eve with my besties (read: WPT) and had a "webcam tragedy" hahaha that was a very fool experience and we won’t forget it. That night we learned how to not ignore such a simple thing because it could cause a big mistake and regret.


2. Everyday-courses with my classmate (read: SEBIA) preparing the national exam and university pass exam.

The making of Termelek melek
3. A movie as practical exam in Technology and Information lesson (and you know what?) We made Termelek-melek reality show as the parody version of Temehek mehek. By this movie we became closer to our teachers.






4. I worked hard to get a schoolarship from ITB because my parents said that they're incapable to let me go there without any schoolarships. So I tried to prove to people (especially my parents) that I can go there, ITB!
5. Alhamdulillah, Thanks God my, schoolarship were accepted :)



February:
SEBIA after Try Out
  1. Everyday-morning-test at school to prepare the national exam. At 6 a.m. the test had started. So we had to stay up all night to study the test materials everyday.
  2. Still had the courses. Fortunately I did it together with my classmates so we enjoyed our quality timeof studying.
  3. Try-out-test every Sunday. It pushed me to study even at Saturday night. (And again) Thanks God that I had super-friends who never give up to face this situation. We supported each other to reach our dream together.
  4. All of those stuffs made me forget about any love relationship hahaha *evil laugh*

March:
SEBIA after UM UGM
  1. The hardest part came. USM ITB! from D-7 until D-Day I felt so nervous (“galau” in bahasa indonesia) The only things I did along those days : Eat, Pray, Love Study!
  2. Hell-o National Exam, my 18th birthday was the first day of national exam. Nothing special and we (all SMANSA family) did it very well.
  3. Two days after National Exam there was UM UGM. I joined it because I wanted to try as much as possibilities to study at university. Medical Faculty and Architecture were my choises.

April:
  1. UM UNDIP,  I didn’t join it because the registering payment was very expensive. So, I only gave support and prayed for the best to all my friends who joined it.
  2. A week practicum exam, we went to laboratory everyday. Monday at Physics, Tuesday at Chemistry, Wednesday at Biology  and so on. I admitted that it was harder than the national exam itself.
Before SIMAK UI

3. SIMAK UI. I joined it because all my besties joined it (such a fool reason, right?) but like I said before that I wanted to try as much as possibilities to study at university. And again, Medical Faculty and Architecture were my choises. There was a funny story here, because the test was held in Jogja, we (my besties and I) stayed in such a haunted hotel and we had some "unforgetable experiences" there.

4. An unbelievable evening when I heard from my bestfriend (dinda) that I was accepted in ITB (my colllege dream) on the first choice (STEI). But actually the case was I want to be accepted on my third choice "ARCHITECTURE!"

5.Two days after, another great announcement came. I was accepted in Architecture UGM. Okay this was a dilema. On one side I aspired to be an Architect but on the other hand ITB was my dream and I had got a schoolarship there. Thoughtfully, I choosed  to go to ITB.

Tanda tangan SEBIA
6. The peak point was the National Exam result. SEBIA graduated 100%. Rightt after that we celebrated it with dinner together, with no anarchism like what done by other school. We were peace, we were family :)






May:




1. SEBIA farewell party, AGAS Hotel, 3rd May 2010.

      My Personal Hero (Bookworm Challenge - November ed. 2010)

      2 Comments »

      I can't imagine how my life would be if I don't have him...
      He was the most exited people at the time I was gave birth to this world,
      When I was a baby, he tried to make me smile everytime.
      He was so proud if he successfully make me laugh at him.
      He used to shout at my mother when I pee on the bed
      and became the most panic one when I didn't stop crying.

      When I grew up, he always tried to keep me safe.
      He picked me up to the school everyday along I was in the Elementary School.
      I remember, 
      I ever went home with tears felt down on my cheeks, and then he told me,
      "Hey my little girl, you must be strong! A super girl may not cry. You wanna be a strong person like me, right?"
      Yeah, he never asked me why I was crying but amused me with all of his words.
      He always successfully changed my tears with smile :)
      I wanna be like him, strong.

      When I was in Junior High School, my mother often angry to me because I never studying,
      but he always support and defense me from my mother's anger.
      And then he adviced me wisely that studying is my own needed, so noone could push me to study but my self.
      His advices stayed in my brain and heart.

      As time goes by, I reach my teenage life.
      When I got my first boyfriend, I bet he was the most jealousy man in the world.
      He said, "Told me if that boy hurt you. I'll make a revenge to him if you fall your tears just because of him."
      I was very shocked at that time.
      I wonder how big is his love for me.

      When I graduated from High School, he help me to reach my dream.
      He accompany me go here and go there to prepare the selection test for entering to my dream institute.
      He always remind me to study hard and pray harder.
      but he also told me to prepare the worst possibility, so I could face the reality.

      And now, when I have been accepted here, ITB, my super dream Institute,
      I realize that he really is my HERO!

      The one who accompany me since I was a baby until now I become a young lady.
      The one who always try to keep me safe wherever and whenever I am.
      The one who teach me how to be a strong person.
      The one who love me so much more than that I know.
      The one who support me reaching my dreams.
      And the one who acquaint me what life is.

      Altough we are not living together again now,
      I believe that our heart keep feel the same.
      Nothing gonna change!
      I'm still your-lovely-younger-sister.
      And you are my-best-brother-ever.
      My inspiration,
      My personal hero,
      All along my life.

      UTS - United Trouble of Stress (Bookworm Challenge - October ed. 2010)

      No Comments »

      First week.
      PHYSICS,
      The main idea of my study, my faculty, SEEI.
      Full of complex formula.
      Not only theory but also aplication case.
      Not only custom matter but also about daily problems.
      Six days and six nights i did the exercises.
      I tried to remember the steps to solve the problems.
      I tried to understand the basic concepts.
      But those mechanical and dinamical motions just make me stress.

      Second week.
      CHEMISTRY,
      The hardest part of all.
      Subjects i hate the most since my senior high.
      And the problem just the same,
      because of the teachers,
      because of my undefined-lecturer.
      Okay, maybe i'm not mature yet in this case,
      blaming others for my weakness.
      Then i look at my friends around.
      Though they complained,
      they keep study and study.
      Do not want to be left behind,
      I try to master all materies independently.
      Mr.Brady and Mr.Hiskia Ahmad become my bestfriends for a week.
      Hundreds of pages i read everyday,
      but those texts just make me stress.

      Third week.
      CALCULUS,
      The branch of mathematic.
      I used to love math since elementary until senior high.
      But now, this part of math look like to send me to the hell.
      Why must something is derivated if it will be integrated again?
      I just tought that it such a useless thing,
      because everytime i see those numbers and notation,
      it just make me stress more and more.

      Along three weeks,
      my-every-single-second was full of pressure.
      read this and read that,
      exercised this and exercised that,
      Physics, Chemistry, and Calculus stressed me successfully.
      I'm fagged out of this!

      Then the Fourth week comes.
      The one i've been waiting for.
      The only subject make me not stress.
      The light in the middle of my darkness.
      The thing that successfuly make me smile after doing the test,
      wiping out all of my stress since 3 weeks before.
      My only hope to get an A.
      My favorite one.
      English :)


      Then I realize,
      A BIG SUCCESS JUST NEED A BIG SACRIFICE.
      DOING WHAT YOU LOVE IS GOOD,
      but LOVING WHAT YOU DO IS BETTER.


      *Thank you for wika-girls-friends a.k.a 'kanayakan-angels' who always accompany, teach, and help me along this UTS :)

      I ♥ SOLO (Bookworm Challenge - September ed. 2010)

      I walk along this street,
      with noone,
      just alone,
      but not lonely at all.

      Shined by the flickering crossinglights,
      I walk slowly until my step is stopped by the sound of such an ethnic unique music.

      Yes, it is Keroncong!
      with all of its peculiarity,
      still exist from generation to generation.

      At the moment,
      i'm sitting at the edge of the footway paving stone,
      enjoying the situation there,
      enjoying the night and the sky above.
      Admitedly,
      I feel so comfort and safe everytime i'm listening to it.

      I look around,
      and then I realize,
      either youngers or olders,
      not only buyers but also mongers,
      they all seems to feel the same with me,
      enjoying the night in front of Keraton gate.

      I crack a smile.
      What a heaven!
      How beautiful this city is!

      The place where i'm born.
      The place where i've been living for 18-years.
      my place, my hometown, my heaven.
      i'm so happy, i'm so proud for becoming
