Taj Mahal, baby!

Taj Mahal baby!

I know this will be a super late post of mine, since we went to Agra to see Taj Mahal in couples of weeks ago, and even one month ago. It was precisely on July 11th.
I bet that everyone might know about Taj Mahal when we talk about India. So that's why I was totally
happy to be in this place where people know and wanna go there as well.
There were plenty of interns with me.
It took roughly 5-6 hours of bus riding from Jaipur to Agra. The trip was quite nice, I had some super nice talks with Andy, the guy who sat next to me on that bus and also with Andrei and Ismail behind us. It was quite fun.
I slept like most of the time but still, I enjoyed it so much.
As we got there, we saw some parts of the city, It was pretty much the same as other cities. I guessed that there will not be other special things except Taj Mahal and Agra Fort. So, we bet that it was pretty much similar with Pisa which only has the Pisa Tower as a special sightseeing.

As soon as we got there, we entered Taj Mahal by 750INR. It was amazing. The building was so awesomely huge. I've been there babies!
Here are some of our photos...............

Never regret this trip, was so happy to be in a trip with them.

Namaste from India

Hi everyone.............

Meet you guys again here on my super late post about my another journey to India by my lonesome. 

So this has been my second long trip abroad without my parents. 

Anyway, I'm doing one of AIESEC project here in AIESEC Jaipur India.

I surfed for many of AIESEC projects that came over my email every single day that completely make me so extremely dizzy of them.

So there were 2 final options of them; which were one project from India and another one was from Italy. I argued my parents about this yet we finally found the brightest pathway out on pointing the project that they thought it might be suitable for me.

Yea, so I chose WAR Project which stands for War Against Rape Project from AIESEC Jaipur India.

You guys just can imagine how challenging and exciting this project will be. Basically it's because I like human right and women empowerment stuffs so much, so that's why I think this one was so ME!

Well now let's talk about the journey itself. So, I took my flight from Jakarta-Kuala Lumpur-Delhi-Jaipur.

It was pretty long and tiring journey yet I enjoyed it so much.

The interesting thing was it has been my 2nd experience to sleepover in the airport. So I made an appointment with a Colombian girl, named Diana that we're going to meet up at the baggage claim on Delhi Airport. We made it, we met up and we stayed together there till our next-day flight from Delhi to Jaipur.

It was kinda fun to meet a person who you never know before to stay together the whole night.

The next day, which was on July 2nd we took a flight from Delhi to Jaipur. We were in the same plane as well, actually also with another girl from Czech Republic, named Eliska. We went to our intern house, it was in Bani Park, pretty much in the center of the city.

The most common public transportation that's pretty safe to take is tuktuk (Bajaj). Anywhere we go we can take tuk tuk, as a result now I have bunches of friends of tuk tuk drivers. They're all funny.

As you're here as a foreigner, you'll get such most common questions asked to you; 

"Hi, what's your name?"

"You come from where?"

"What city from?"

"Where you live here?"

"Until when you will be here?"

"wfhjalijariojaeiofmjadklfnarrughadjvnadvjn"

I got them thousands per each day.

Welcome to India!

Now is about our intern house. So basically, I don't say that now I'm having the best experience with the best quality of life, the best house and the best for everything.

I have to live in a basement of a flat, I share the room with other 7 interns; 

*a Colombian girl, Diana

*a Turkish girl, Ceren

*an Italian girl, Antonella

*a Czechs girl, Elishka

*Me (have a bed on the corner)

*two Egyptian guys (in front of my bed), Ahmed and Yusuf

*a Moroccan guy, Ismail.

So, Let's be family then! 

It was so fucking awkward, you know when you have to share your room with the people you have never known or even met them before. At the very beginning we didn't even talk to each other, we were so freaking quiet. But as time goes by, I started to make some fun and light conversations with them, and we started to be click to each other, especially me with Antonella and Diana. They're both older than me, so we're just like sisters.

So, it was kinda shocking when you realize that now you're going to live for the next 6 months in this kinda basement you've never expected before. All I did was only complaining and continued complaining as hell.

They totally gave me this shit. 

This basement was worse before I started to fire and angry to the AIESEC people in Jaipur. We only have fans above our beds which you only can survive with (in this extremely hot weather), we don't even have beds, they're woods. We sleep on a 5 cm wide wood, there's no even a blanket and pillows. We have only one bathroom for 8 people, we don't have any brooms, mops, and even trash bin here. 

What kind of bedroom are you giving us?

Well that was my very first shocking day.

But I tried to survive in this new kinda life and I tried to look at this experience from my positive side of view.

Because I really believe that if you look at something positively, you'll get it the same.

WHAT YOU'LL GET IS WHAT YOU'VE GIVEN.

So it's all about karma.

Well, I was not the only one who was complaining about this kinda accommodation and stuffs. But I won't waste my time (that I supposed to enjoy) only for complaining and complaining. Things to be complained won't be last. Believe me.

Today, July 18th is my 16th day here, and I'm enjoying every single thing I get and I experience here. I swear to you guys that I'm now enjoying every single time, every single moment, every single things I get here. I fell in love with this country and the stuffs it has.

I tried not to be too keen of these things, I mean I tried to be a very enjoy and easy person as much as I could. I won't complain about anything anymore, all I wanna do is now enjoying my time here.

Because I know that I will not live here forever, so I don't really give a shit on the facilities that I supposed to get but I don't. 

The point is, I won't complain to have better and more facilities as mine in my real house in Indonesia, but I will do one thing, I won't pay the same amount as other guys who live upstairs, who have much more better facilities and ambiance as a place to live in.

That's it, guys.

The thing that I only conclude from this situation is....................................

"Always be thankful, it will surely brings you another sense of happiness"

"Try to look at something that you don't like from your positive side of view"

"Try to be mature enough to face every single situation in your life, it will teach you something new"

"Don't ever say that you have a bad experience on something, it's just different"

"The only one who can decide how your experience will be is YOU, either good or different"

"Enjoy every single time, every single moment of your life, YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE"

"Don't complain too much, all you need to do is only LIVE YOUR LIFE as creative as you can"

Feeling extremely happy to be able to share these things. Got my super amazing life tho. Thank God for all of these things. Alhamdulillahirrobbil'alamin.

Hope this post helps anyone who's confuse on deciding something on their lives. 

Namaste from Jaipur, India.

From India, with love!

A Holly Holiday of Ours

So guys, what's on your mind when you hear such a holly word like ...................... HOLIDAY??

You must be feel such super splendid feelings of happiness, joyfulness, blessed, an so on. Terlebih kalo lo pada adalah anak FK, yang konon katanya jarang banget punya waktu buat liburan (alright, so this is what I'm feeling exactly).

Konon katanya juga, anak-anak FK pada kuper, jarang bisa ngajak dan diajak jalan.
anak-anak FK nge date nya cuman sama buku doan tiap hari.
anak-anak FK temennya itu-itu doang.
anak-anak FK mah boro-boro mau pacaran, luangin waktu buat refreshing aja susah minta ampun.

Okay, so those are some salty people's comments of what a medical student really is.
But wait, it's not one-hundred-percent true, palls.
At the very beginning, I was one of them. I mean one of those judgers. But slowly I can make those salty comments turn sweeter. Yang jalanin gue kok, yang ngerasain gue. Ternyata komen-komen orang di luar sana ga semuanya bener. Asal kita bisa bagi waktu aja sih :)

Okay, yang tadi sekedar curhat yaaaa.
Jadi klimaks ceritanya adalah in a part I'm about to write below, sebentar lagi.................................

Most of anak-anak FK bakal girang setengah mampus kalo denger kata LIBURAN di tengah-tengah jadwal ujian praktikum, ujian skills lab, ujian blok, ujian osce, tutorial, bahkan jadwal KTI mereka. Maybe I could slightly conclude that 'mau libur sehari apa dua hari, yang penting itu namanya libur' (showing hopeless faces).
Jadi, gue sama temen-temen lagi punya beberapa hari (I mean lebih dari satu-dua hari) libur, while the others are so busy with their finals hahahahaha. Sebenernya belom liburan sih, masih a holiday-soon-to-be. Soalnya tar tanggal 11 masih ada kinda exam gitu.

Hari pertama-kedua-ketiga libur ga ngapa-ngapain, itung-itung bisa bed rest sekalian perbaikan gizi selama kuliah waktu itu. Tapi hari-hari setelahnya udah pada bingung mau ngapain, saking free nya. Biasanya pada kebingungan nyuri-nyuri waktu istirahat sama makan, saking sibuk dan ga bisa ditinggalnya belajar. AAAH LELAAAAH.

This is what we did on the first days of holiday 

Sampe suatu hari we planned to go to somewhere (that we used to be 'we dont know' so much). And after taking hours of thingking, we got an idea to go to Waterboom in my city (it's kinda on the suburb on my city actually). We made plans, we told each of us for coming, we were soooooooo happy to the sky and back.

That day (exactly yesterday, January 7th 2014).

Some of us went there by cars and others by motorcycles. I made plans with my close friends, hopping they will be coming as me. But unfortunatelly not all of them were so. The guys coming were just me, Zaki, Acid, and Winda. Echa and Dede weren't.
We had a lotta fun, super fun I mean.

I was on Keken's car. There were Keken (of course), Yudha, Bella, Memes, Abu, Me, Popon and Zaki inside. We laughed for things, we chilled, we did jokes, we gossiped things (as what we usually do).
We arrived pretty late gara-gara nungguin Abu sang guest star.

We entered, then................................................ Taaaaaaa-daaaaaa! we found Acid inside with his super wet outfit due to swim. Luar biasa!! dasar Sorbente :3

We put our clothes off, then went directly to wahana-wahana di sana. haaha
We tried Twister boom, slider boom, and many others.
We entered at around 11 and went home at around 16.

Again, We had lotta fun there! We refreshed! Chilling out togheter with jokes! So fun....................

Here we are....... Cheers...

The girls

my Sorbente! 

Regards,

A holiday seeker, Atika

1:42 am

It's exactly 1:42 am when I'm writing this.
I wanna tell y'all that the girl writing this is soooooo stupid as hell.
Jadi, couples of hours ago gue iseng-iseng buka Twitter gue yang emang udah super jarang gue buka. Biasanya gue cuman mantengin timeline for 2 minutes maximally and then go offline. Tapi tadi, gangerti kenapa tiba-tiba niat banget mau ngestalk orang.
Langsung deh otak gue ngelist siapa-siapa aja yang saat itu beruntung bakalan gue stalk. Okay, list is done. There are like 4 to 5 lucky people to be stalked.

The first one...........................................aman.
The second one......................................aman juga.

But the third one..................................... entah gue ngantuk apa apa gitu ya, tiba-tiba ga konsen. Pas udah buka profile nya, gue stalk sampe tweet-tweet lamanya. Okay gue buka, opened. Gue scroll down sampe eneg, pas ga sengaja liat mentionan doi dan mantan. 'Waaaah bahan bagus buat di stalk nih!'

Ga ngerti kenapa, trs gue mencet favorite button. anjir lah! pasti masuk itu yang namanya notification of someone has just favorited your tweet. huhuuhuhu CHE STUPIDA CHE SONO, MAMMA MIA :((((((((
Bloon bgt tik serius.
I don't even know what should I do. I was thinking to text him directly then tell him the truth that I was stalking his tweets. No! That's exactly moooore stupid. Please, I was just about to let people know my fool.
Okay. I'm sorry.

Lesson learned: Jangan stalk orang lagi ya, Tik................................................................................................. :(

Being a very-blessed girl on earth

Ciao gente!

Sono sempre io che volevo scrivere qualcosa qui. Oggi magari voglio scrivere qualcosa di perchè mi sento così speciale. a proposito, grazie a Dio.

So today, as what I said Imma write about why I feel kinda both blessed and special.

By the way, every single person has his own positives and negatives, and so am I. Since there are always black and white, dark and bright, young and old, kind and mean, also love and hate. There always be so.

Everyone is simply amazing on his way. Everyone was born just to be awesome. For God's sake, it is fricking true, buddies.

Just look at your surroundings. They are comletely diffrent one to others. But they have such goodnesses on themselves. Remember, we're all amazing in our ways, but we don't own such perfections. Cz practically it's what God owns.

But at a certain point you guys gonna feel such a feeling of mine now. Idk, it's kinda like strange yet great feeling of blessed feeling. I feel so blessed with every single things God has given to me till this breath that I currently breathe now. I got so many. Anyway, because of I'm not a girl not yet a woman, I wish to think maturely like, I don't wanna judge everything spontantly anymore. Cz I did, by the way. It's not exactly the way a lady soon-to-be is using.

Okay. For the very first time, I thank God for giving me my parents and the all of my family (both the natural and the host one).

Yang pertama Bapak sama ibu yang pengertian banget, yang udah ngajarin gue how to be a super discipline girl, yang udah ngajarin gue how to balance both rasa seneng dan prihatin, yang udah ngajarin gue how to be a good moslem, pkknya yang udah ngajarin gue banyaaaaak banget hal dalam hidup (yang tentunya ga bakal ada di kurikulum SD sampe SMA bahkan kuliah).

kalo ditanya sayang? ya udah pasti jawabannya sayang, pake tambahan banget malahan. Oya, mereka juga ngenalin gue what democracy in a family is. Seneng banget kalo udah ngutarain masing-masing ide dan argumen, mau pas abis sholat bareng, mau pas lagi makan, sampe-sampe pas lagi uyel-uyelan bareng di tempat tidur a.k.a ngepepes. Mommy majors science. Ibu orang kesehatan, hobinya nerapin dan nyeramahin kita semua tentang semua ilmu kesehatan yang beliau punya, terutama masalah makanan beserta kadungannya. My daddy majors science, too. Tapi penerapannya, bapak lebih ke sosial, tepatnya ekonom sih. Kalo bapak, jago hitung-hitungan, sama ngeluarin teori-teori tinggi yang super teoritis dan alhasil malah bikin orang bosen kadang-kadang. Bapak orangnya baik, super baik. Kalo marah pasti selalu nasehatin, jaraaaaaaang banget yang ngomel pedes kaya ibu. Sama orang juga baik ga ketolongan. Ga ngerti kenapa. Nah balik lagi ke ibu, ibu orangnya keras, lebih tepatnya berprinsip. Ibu ga suka bertele-tele, mau semuanya serba cepet. Oya satu lagi, the most important thing I really proud of her is...... ibu orangnya struggle banget. Maybe her life motto is kinda 'struggle till die'.

Bapak ibu gue kayanya pada tipe pembaca semua. Ga ngerti kenapa ini ga bisa nular ke gue :( I mean like, buku-buku mereka semuanya berterbaran di rumah udah kaya nyamuk. Tebel-tebel, berat-berat, beda-beda pula.

Well, besides that, my parents give me freedom, the responsible one. They do believe ini me and what I am doing, as long as I do it positively.

Aren't they so lovable? YEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS THEY AREEEEEEE!

Allora, I have one natural brother named Idham. He's about 17 years old this year. He's quite handsome, he's tall, he's soooooo annoying sometimes. NGESELIN, itu udah pasti. He's the one bothering me in almost all of the time. Thus, I got angry on him (for the most of the time actually). But sometimes he got me so lonely without his jokes, I mean including his unfunny jokes. Kadang kangen juga..............................................

namanya juga adek kan ya? :)

My second best parents are (of course) my host parents. The Napoletan one and the Veronese one. I have one in Napoli and another one in Verona. Papà Vincenzo and Mamma Rosanna are from Napoli, Poggiomarino actually.

Papà juara banget kalo masalah makan. Kalo mamma, juara masaknya. She's just the best housewife on earth (after ibu, of course). Who went everyday to a supermarket near my house. She bought things, she cooked well, she cleaned the house, she washed both clothes and dishes, etc. Mamma agak gaptek tapi, jarang banget nyentuh henfons sama komputer. Jadi kalo masalah teknologi, salah besar kalo nanya nya ke Mamma :(

They have two daughters, Anna and Stefania. They are both 22 and 18 years old. They are both beautifull. Anna likes more boyish things. She likes football so fricking much. She makes friends with guys. She smokes. Well, Anna goes to a favorite University in Roma majoring Economics, and so does Stefania. But she goes to (also) a favorite University in Milano. Stefania had the same experience as me since she went to China for a year as an exchange student. è fighissima come l'esperienza.

Anna-Tika-Stefania

Biasanya di rumah juga ada Nonna alias nenek atau eyang. Namanya Nonna Anna, Anna Maria. Beliau tinggal di deket rumah host parents gue, tapi tiap malem bobo manja di rumah. Paginya baru balik. Hobinya ngomong. Jadi kalo kesempetan berduaan sm gue pasti ngomongnya panjaaang banget kaya jarak Indonesia-Italia. And even, things were going worse when...................................................................... Nonna nanya hal yang sama berulang kali, kaya 'Tik, Banjarmasin itu hutan ya? soalnya kalo di peta kan warnanya ijo'. Rese banget kan ya? hiks. Kalo nanyanya sekali, atau paling engga sekali sebulan kek masih wajar kan ya. Lah kalo ini almost everyday, man! ALMOST EVERYDAY. I was like........ holycrap let me kill myself then. haha. Canda yaaaaaaaaa, Nonna sayang.

Nah kalo yang ini, anggota keluarga yang gaboleh ketinggalan disebut. Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome, POCHOOOOOOOOO. The cutest dog I owned on earth. Luv luvvvvvv.

Yes baby, overall they are all as lovable as my natural family.

I love them, and till this breath I breathe, I miss them deeply.

Host parents yang kedua, adalah mereka yang di Verona. Papà Gabriele dan Mamma Milena. They are all soooooooooo lovable toooooooooo. Mereka baik banget. Even I'm out of words in describing them by sentences. They are kinda vegetarians, they love natures and children. They love cultures, since they have hosted many exchange students, including one of Indonesian student one year ahead of me, named kak Gea.

So briefly I've been in several condition and situation, also types of families in my life. And they are all amazing. I really thank God for this anyway.

Martina-Filippo-Giuditta-Tika

Mereka punya satu anak cowo dan satu anak cewe. Namanya Filippo sama Giuditta. They are also the best siblings I've ever had. Terutama Filippo. The first and the best big brother of mine, since in Indonesia I have no BIG brother by the way. He took care of me a lot. Oh Imma spread all affections I have to all of youuuuuuu. I swear to God for this.

Giuditta went to India also as an exchange student in 2010. But She didn't finish it cz probably she had some problems with the family or the environment.

It didn't change my love for her by the way. My love for her is sooooooooo endlessly.

Okay, So GOD, please let me thank You for this kind of blessing you lend me.

The second most important thing in my life after parents and families is....................................................................... my buddies.

I got uncountable loves for them. I prefer making friends than craving for boyfriends. Being a single is not that bad, girls #maafcurcol.

Tika-Ilfa-Oca

Tika-Icha-Yasmin-Gegeh

Ada-Michela-Sara-Deborah-Tika-Annamaria-Roberta

Basically, friends are another important thing for me. I probably just can't live without friends. 

Sebenernya gue bukan tipe orang yang mudah bersahabat. Tapi gue punya sepabrik temen, cz 'segudang' is going too mainstream. It needs both time and process, guys. 'Gak semua temen bisa jadi sahabat lo, Tik', that was what exactly I tell myself.

Gue, juga bukan tipe peneman cewek. Idk why I just can't stick easily to girls. I make friends logically instead of by feelings... Soalnya menurut pengalaman gue selama 18 taun hidup di dunia, gue selalu susah stick into girls gang instead of boys ones. Entah faktor apa yang buat gue demikian. Tapi gue mungkin adalah orang terenjoy yang gapunya temen cewe on earth. Temen cewe gue bisa banget diitung pake jari tangan (ga nyampe kaki loh ya).

I got best friends. Best friends from high school, best friends of childhood, best friends of everyone.

Mungkin beberapa masih best friends-soon-to-be. Tapi mereka baiiiiiik banget, dan super ngerti.

And here they are...............................................................................................................................
(Maybe photos are not a good way on showing you guys my best friends).

Edo-Tika-Bram

Ijon-Tika-Azizi

Zaki-Tika-Ihsan

It's not about how many photos I have with them, how many times we hang out together, how many times we let everyone knows that we're together, and for how long we've been best friends. But it's all about how much affections we've given one to others, how much love spread among us, how care we to others, and how we can feel both safe and comfort when we tell them stories and even secrets.

My best friends are so.

Sentences tadi bukan bullshits, itu emang gue yang bikin, dan gue yakin banget itu emang bener, karena emang gue yang rasain kan ya hehahaehe.

Jadi, bener kalo sahabat itu adalah orang yang bakal ada di saat susah maupun seneng, yang bisa take and give bareng lo. Tapi makna sahabat jangan lo patok buat orang-orang yang selalu ada non stop 24 jam buat lo, orang yang ada deket rumah lo atau orang yang paling sering jalan sama lo. Kalo menurut pemahaman gue itu sih salah ya.

Jadi gini.....................................................................................................................

Basically gue punya sahabat dari SD, cowok (again and again). Kita cuman satu sekolah sampe SMP doang. SD kerjaannya berantem sama ledek-ledekan sampe nangis dan adu-aduan ke ortu. Tapi pas SMP duduk jadi sebelahan, biarpun masih sering berantem dan cubit-cubitan bahkan ludah-ludahan.

Lulus SMP, masuk SMA (yaiyalah). Nah mulai SMA ini kita mulai pisah, udah jarang ketemu, jarang ludah-ludahan bareng, jarang jalan bareng, dll. Tapi yang gue salut sama persahabatan ini adalah kita ga pernal lupa buat ngabarin satu sama lain buat cuman sekedar ngasih dan nanya kabar.

Persahabatan masih berjalan sampe sekarang. Sekarang kita makin jauh karna kuliah di beda kota. Udah jarang banget ketemu, jarang jalan, malah yang lebih parah buat foto baren buat kenang-kenangan aja bisa diitung pake jari tangan kiri. Ironis? ember.

tapi ya tadi, kalo kita punya prinsip sahabat itu ga mesti orang yang paling sering ketemu, paling sering kontekan, paling sering foto bareng, LDBF atau Long Distance Best-Friendship gini bakal terus jalan (Insya Allah). In the name of God and love, we'll keep this friendship eternally...................

Kalo temen-temen deket pas SMA, rata-rata temen-temen di MPK-OSIS. They are too many to be mentioned by the way.

Sekarang, temen-temen kuliah gue juga pada super baik. Ada yang baik banget, baik aja, sampe sedikit baik. Tapi ya overall baik semua sih, hehee. Ada yang dekeeet banget, deket aja, sampe agak dan sedikit deket.

So, briefly I thank God for letting me know these amazing and inspirational people and bestfriends to me. They mean a lot for me.

Alhamdulillah. I just can't stop saying that. Yes, I feel so much blessed on every blessings I got. 

And again and agai, I thank God for this. Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah.....................................

Sekian sesi bersyukur malem ini, semoga bermanfaat. hahaha. Amiiiiiin.

I suggest you guys to keep your friendship eternally for every cases happened at the end. I love y'all.

College Life of Mine

Hello fellas, meet me again, the same writer for a different story of my dusty blog.

So this time I'd like to share a brief story of my college life.

It's been about 4 months to be such a super busy medical student of Lambung Mangkurat University, I did lotta things, I studied, I disscussed, I read books, I read journals, I browsed, I learned, etc. It's been (I think) the most busy 4 months in my life. 

Jadi gini ceritanya ya.....................................................................

As time goes by, gue udah ninggalin lumayan jauh yang namanya kehidupan SMA dengan hal-hal yang super ngangenin kaya baju seragam putih abu-abu, upacara bendera tiap hari Senin, bunyi bel istirahat dua kali tiap hari, bapak ibu guru yang masuk silih berganti, dan masih banyak hal lain yang super duper ngangenin. Gak kerasa udah kurang lebih 4 bulan gue berkecimpung di dunia perkuliahan. It's so sensational, I mean like, this is such a very-strange yet challenging feeling guys. Rasanya aneh, tapi nantang banget. Bener kata orang-orang kalo kehidupan kuliah ga se klasik dan penuh kasih sayang kaya kehidupan SMA yang menurut gue semuanya serba gampang dan serba dimanjain. 

Wah, kalo sekarang.............................................................................. mau manjain diri aja susah, apalagi mau minta dimanja-manjain #ups.

Okay, as a medical student who always chill with such books in every single time of my life, gue pikir ini adalah hal yang harus banget gue biasain demi masa depan yang cerah nantinya. The first time knowing that I got accepted in this faculty, I felt like I was flying away to meet a dreamland. Happy, proud and cheers were always be there right next to my heart. Awal-awal masuk emang bener nih, 'wooohooooo gue anak FK man, FK!! Fakultas Kedokteran! sini gue ulangin, Fakultas Kedokteran!' and at the same point I felt like, Medical Faculty has another plus point from others.

Rasa bangga dan semangat menggebu-gebu itu terus membasah-kuyupi jiwa dan raga ini. Tapi gak lama. After a while, It turns worse. I mean like, 'ANJIRRRR! CAPEK MEN! CAPEEEEEEEEK!'. Oh man please, You dated books, while other friends of yours are hanging out there sooooo fricking happy. (Life ain't as smooth as a Korean actresses' faces by the way).

Well I write this by surveys, so you know.................................................................................................

Other months were keep running. Semua terus muter kaya jarum jam yang gak bakal bisa balik lagi. Semuanya bakal terus jalan, gak peduli mau nilai bagus apa bobrok, mau skill mantep apa kagak, mau ilmu penuh apa malah kosong. Gaada yang peduli basically. Show kept going, Life kept running.

Back to the first time entering college, it was on September 2013 (if I'm not mistaken). And as what I've said before, kalo kuliah itu beda jauh sama SMA. Di kuliah semuanya dituntut serba mandiri dan serba bisa. Mau gak semandiri dan gak sebisa apapun lo pada udah dianggep mandiri dan bisa. So, it's your life choice to be so.

Dulu, waktu gue SD apa gitu ya, gue selalu pengen cepet kuliah banget, cz drama series on tv always show how college students dressed, how they falling in love to others around them, how they wear make up, how they drive cars to campus, and how they wear a super glamorous hand bag to campus. OH MY GOODNESS THEY WERE JUST SUPER DUPER MEGA BULLSHITTTTTS. I can't make them realized nooooooow in my college life. As a medical student, those things seem so impossible to be realized. Pertama, anak-anak FK kalo ke kampus musti pake baju super duper mega rapih, yang cewe pake baju rapi (non kaos) dan wajib pake rok, yang cowo baju rapi juga sama celana panjang (non jeans) dan rambut juga musti rapi gaboleh rewo-rewo. Yang kedua, gue pikiiir, yang namanya kuliah itu adalah gabungan antara belajar sama TP TP alias tebar pesona. Eh ternyata engga sama sekali. Di kampus gue kayanya 1892449210% nya pada mau serius dan konsen belajar deh. Dan yang paling bikin gue sadar kalo hidup itu ga seindah sinetron dan drama series di tv adalah masalah tas. Yang bikin gue sangat bete adalah ketika lo berekspektasi bakalan bisa make hand bag gonta ganti tiap hari buat kuliah, tapi realita berkata tidak. Di mana tiap hari lo musti bawa buku beratus-ratus halaman yang kalo lo bawa pake hand bag, yang ada hand bag lo yang bakal jebol. Another expectation is going executed.

Okay, this is what exactly happened when expectation meets an an reliable reality........

Here, I may conclude things:

1.  Be yourself is all what you need, 

2. Struggle, survive (and sometimes surrender at a certain point) are the flavour of your bright future,

3.  Believe in yourself of what you're doing, and what your aim are  for,

4. Reaching goals actually needs efforts,

5. Don't give up on pressures and condition,

6. God knows you can, and

7. Believe me, life ain't as splendid as fairy tales your mom told you.

I've barely said that, di kuliah itu butuh kemandirian dan keberanian penuh. Gaada lagi manja-manjaan, tolong-tolongan dan lain-lain. Awalnya gue pikir juga gitu. Malah gue udah niatin kalo kuliah bakal super fokus sama nilai dan studi gue sendiri. Tapi, Medical Fakulty a.k.a FK taught me a lot of undescribable things, like......... TOGETHERNESS, AWARENESS, LOVE, AFFECTION, STRUGGLE, etc. 

Kita ditutuntut banget buat selalu bersama dalam susah maupun seneng. Kita masuk bareng, dan harapannya keluar dan nantinya coass bareng-bareng juga. Jadi dokter bareng-bareng juga (amin).

Angkatan gue gak dikit, 144 orang. Susah tau gak sih ngatur 144 kepala yang sangat kreatif dan banyak ide buat ngelakuin banyak hal-hal spektakuler. Susah, iya susah banget. Sampe-sampe awalnya masing-masing kita banyak yang udah mutusin buat jalan masing-masing tanpa peduli sesama. Ternyata itu salah besar. Semenjak ada LDKM (Latihan Dasar Kepemimpinan Mahasiswa), kita semua dilatih dan dibiasakan buat selalu sama-sama dalam susah maupun senang.

And it worked baby! Now it seems like we've been loving each other so dee
