"They 'touched' me!"

Last weekend I went to Blitar with my mother and lovely elder aunt. Actually, I didn’t ‘went for recreation’ or something, but I DROVE them to Blitar. Haha. Drop-and –picking thing as usual. I spent only one night in Blitar, departed on 9 a.m. at Saturday and went home at 11 a.m. at Sunday. Wheww, it was a very tiring trip! For girl like me, driving for about 4-6 hours from Surabaya to Blitar sure are unlovely. And since last weekend was a long weekend (we got holiday in Saturday, Sunday and Monday, didn’t we?) so the road was veeerryyy traffic and busy!! Wow, so much adventuring and challenging for me.  On the way from Surabaya to Blitar we stopped by at Kediri, picked up my elder uncle and my lovely cousin. And then we continued the trip to Blitar.

But this is where the story begin. There was a looong march to celebrated Indonesia’s Independence Day! The long march was followed by high school’s student, employees, and so on. The road was veerryy full of people marching ‘till I couldn’t move! They looked so proud holding the Indonesia’s flag and marching along the street with singing Indonesia’s proudest song. In that moment I felt so touching, why I have to be so judging to Indonesia? We only saw Indonesia from its darkest sight, corruption, drought, starvation, and so on. Our ‘picture in our head’ been shaped by media, only media. They made us didn’t look closely to other Indonesia’s potential and accomplishment like Indonesia’s winning in Beijing Olympic, the successful to arrested terrorist, or even their potential in finishing the conflict. Miss Universe 2008, Miss Mendoza, said that she love Indonesia and didn’t want to leave Indonesia yet.

With a fact that she only had visit Yogyakarta and Jakarta. We should’ve been proud for our Indonesia. If we as Indonesia’s citizen didn’t do this, who else gonna do it?

SHL Test etc.

Huffftt.. Kemaren aku Tes tahap 3 odp mandiri. sulit banget.. tiring juga :’(. Aku yang blajar tes potensi akademik buat masuk perguruan tinggi sama dunia kerja jelas kaget sama bentuk soal yang SAMA SEKALI BEDA. Jadi mandiri pake vendor SHL dari Inggris gitu, basisnya di Jakarta. Mereka biasa ngadain personal assessment buat perusahaan yang mau hire karyawan-karyawan baru. Nah karna aku blum pernah ikut tes shl sebelumnya makanya aku shock banget waktu tau bentuk soal yang kayak gitu. Jadi ada 3 macem soal. Yang pertama tes verbal. Nah tes verbal ini terdiri dari 48 soal yang harus dikerjain selama 25 menit. Dan tes verbalnya itu bukan tes verbal kayak yang common gitu (persamaan kata, lawan kata, dsb). Jadi bentuk soalnya tuh kayak ada 1 paragraf diikuti 4 pernyataan di bawahnya. Tugas kita adalah menentukan keempat pernyataan itu benar, tidak benar atau tidak terdapat dalam paragraf. Dan soal-soal kayak gitu ada 12 paragraf! Jadi asli ga bisa analisis dalem-dalem satu persatu, s...

Adyt's Mom Present

Kmaren pas brangkat ke RS jenguk Igar sama Adyt, Bapak, dan Tedo, Adyt ngasih aku kado. Like usually, dia suka tiba-tiba ngeluarin kado or something gitu buat aku dari tasnya (that’s why aku bilang tasnya itu kayak tas doraemon ;p) . Bentuknya kotak, aku udah nebak mungkin ini isinya dompet (sambil setengah berharap dan berdo’a “Ya Allah Ya Allah mudah2an bener..”) . Tapi Adyt bilang isinya makanan, dan dia bilang coklat. Oh, okay. Aku dengan agak kecewa bilang *setengah kesel* , “Kalo cuma coklat ga usah dibungkus kertas kado kaleeee…” . Eh, si dia malah cengengesan. Di mobil aku buka kadonya, agak karna setengah penasaran dan ga yakin juga masa iya coklat?, dan ternyata abis gitu aku jejeritan. Dia ngasih aku dompet! Dia bilang itu oleh-oleh dari ibunya pas ke Jakarta kemaren. Katanya pas ada sale-sale-an Christian Dior gitu trus ibunya bliin :).   ada detil kupu-kupu kecilnya gitu warna silver. lucu yah? ;) Makasih ya Tante!! :D
