Anger, Wise, and Smile…

Today, I got a precious lesson. Something strange has happened on me. How strange it was? I think it’s so strange, because I can count by my one-hand’s fingers, how many times the moment like that has happened on me. Yes, really…and it makes me feel different.

This afternoon, my lecturer, Mr. Rudi, was angry to me,,,what? really? yes, he became angry to me. You know why? it’s because I do something. You know what I’ve done? I was making some noise at the class, I laugh loudly because of my friend’s activity. I laugh at it. At that time, the class was quite noisy, but my laugh made it clear. Making my teacher angry is really not my habit. It made my lecturer thought that I was the one who cause noise in the class. From what he said, I think, he thought that I let his explanation just flying around my head or thought that I do not want to get his explanation. Oh, Sir… I never meant to do those things to you. Really,,, I luv study, I like ur subject, I like the way you teach, I’m proud to be your student. I never meant to do those things to you, Sir.

When he say that he is disappointed, and show his anger. I feel something different in myself. Something that I haven’t felt for a long time. Something strange inside my soul. I just think,,”Oh,I must be so stupid. How can I make him angry. I have to do something...” then, my mind was spinning round and round... makes me remember the time about a years ago, you can read it at “Antara Profesor, Rektor, dan Humbleness”. Maybe, if I haven’t got it before, I’ll do something crazy. But, at that time, I just want to go to his office to apologize that mistake.

Then, after class,,Rara accompanied me to go to the lecturer’s office. But,before decide to go to Mr. Rudi’s office, the first one whose face ran across my mind was Mr. Romy. Yes, Mr. Romy Budhi Widodo S.T., M.T. (a.k.a Pak Romy) is my mentor in Kristen Nygaard group. Together with Ms. Liani Stelladewinata (Ce Ella), they will be our guide, consultant, sharing partner, etc until we’re ready to face the real world. Mr. Romy is a very nice, patient, and helpful person. His attitude and behavior is quite same with my daddy. Have a mentor like him, makes me almost feel like I have another dad at campus.

Entered Mr. Romy’s room, I told him what has happened. His words let myself calm down, better than before. He told me that it wasn’t really matter for Mr. Rudy. He ask me not to think about it too deeply. He told me that Mr. Rudy is a nice and wise person, and he must not happy to let me down But, I still can’t stop blaming myself… Then, Mr. Romy agree that I’d go to Mr. Rudy’s affice to make an apology.

When I was leaving Mr Romy’s office, I met Mr. Rudy at the door. Then, Mr. Romy call me back, and he says to Mr Rudi..

“Mr. Rudi, Mutiara want to say something to you…”

(with nothing-happened-face) “Oh, yes…just say it…”

“Mr…I’m so sorry for the mistakes I’ve made this afternoon. I never meant to do it. I’m really sorry?”

(in surprised face)“…oh, what? oh, please…don’t think about it. It wasn’t any matter”

“….I’m really sorry, I won’t do it again” (with tears almost running down)

“oh, please… never mind. Just let it go. I’m so sorry that I’ve let u down. If I know this before, I won’t do it to you… so, please..don’t be sad”

“thank you, Sir..”

then I ask for permittion to go out of Mr. Romy’s office. But, I still think about that. Wipe my-almost-running-down-tears, Rara and I stand at the corner of lecturer’s office corridor. Smooth seas do not meke skillful sailor, right? and I’m really thanks for what Allah has given to me.

Then, when I have to do an interview test, explain algorithm to some new students, stand to wait for tha rain, I didn’t feel blue like what I’ve felt before. Then, I share this story with some close friends and also some partners in KBI community, I want to show them a lesson. It’s a really precious lesson for me. I’m really proud to have the great lecturer here. I’m really glad to have wonderful people around me. Thank’s God for all you gave to me =)

A 34 Months Baby

-For this 34 months stairway-

October 22th, means that we’ve been holding hands for 34 month. It’s not a short time, but it’s not a quite long time. Imagine a 34 months baby, makes me realize about the truth. It’s like a toddler,,, who is learning to walk. And, I can imagine, with hardwork, persistence, big passion, and positive thought, soon, a toddler will be able to walk by him/her own feet. And, let see how can they run faster and grow bigger…every year….every month…every single day…every night…every moment…

We’ve come so far, won’t throw it away…. =)

About Persistence

As the appointment which has been decided before, every Thursday afternoon, the website team in my campus will have a meeting in the Rectorate Building. In this moment, the website team consists of 5 people. They are Mr. Aditya Pamungkas, BS-IT as the coordinator, Mrs. Titiek Hariati, S. Psi as the website editor, Mr. Windra Swastika, S.Kom as our advisor, and also Arlingga Agung and me as web administrator.

From the last meeting, we decided some important things. And one of them is about the technical of recruitment to find some new member of our team. Because of the announcement that has been sent to Ma Chung email address of all UMC students at the day before, there had been several students that want to join our team. So, we had to think about the selection of the new member. After decided that things and go back to my class, my mind couldn’t stop to think about something.

At the class, my “lunch-mates” have eaten their lunch because their lecture would be started. Because I don’t have any class in the rest of that day, I joined with Yoseph and Vega then go to the canteen. While we were eating our lunch and have a chat, my mind still think about something.

You know what I think,

I just think about the time ‘bout a years ago. When Mr. Windra announced the same kind of announcement, about website team recruitment. I also remember the story told by my friend. I remember when 30 students attended the first meeting. I remember when I spend the weekend with them in the Ole Johan Dahl laboratory. I remember when I have some meetings in big rectorate board room, with rector, vice rector, HOD, etc. I remember when the time goes by. When the spirit goes down. When they get off their stands, one by one. I remember when we spend the half night in campus. When lose the time that used to be lunch time. But, I also remember… when when many golden chances were given to us. I remember that.

And now, I wanna say something, not only for you who propose for UMC web development team. but also for everyone of you. Please keep the persistence inside ur soul. Maybe U’ll get nothing directly or immediately, but someday…. U’ll see the beautiful things after.

And for you who decide to join the web team, all U have to do is just keep ur spirit up and do ur job persistently. Then U’ll see what u will get someday. Keep Fight!!

Just Want to Share…

Yesterday, when I was attending a CBDC (Character Building Development Center) III lecture, in Balai Pertiwi UMC, I got something strange there. If U know the situation that happened on me there, U would know how strange it was. Let me tell U…

CBDC III is a lecture that is attended by all students in my university, who take this subject in this semester. It means that the attenders weren’t only from IT, but also from Accounting, Management, and English study program. And this lecture is also attended by lecturer, staff, and HOD in my campus. The lecture start at 1 p.m. It means that we have to be there before 1 o’clock or we wouldn’t be allowed to enter the hall. Then, let’s see what happened there (October 22nd)…

I go there from Canteen together with Tika, Hayu, and Cinthya. Entered the building, we had to sit with our mentoring group (I’ll tell U more about this, later, okay!). Because I can’t find any member of my group (Kristen Nygaard Group) there, I send an SMS to my groupmate. While waiting for her reply, I sat in right side, the place where my groups used to sit before. Then, U know what happened…

Someone come to me, then say “Saya duduk di sini boleh…? (May I sit here…)”, with smile. Seeing his friendly smile, I just smile back to him, then say “Oh iya2, silahkan…(Yes, of course…)”. Then, the lecture start and I can’t get focus on what the lecturer says. That’s not because of the made up cough of the guys behind me, or because I’m a little bit nervous to sit beside that man. But, it’s just because the man do not stop talking about…(something really strange to be talked in this situation) He asks many things to me, while I never think that he, a man like him actually, will do it. He’s like ….ouch,,. But, however, after sit with him, I get a quite important lesson…That is “we have to keep our integrity, whenever and wherever we are”.

For everyone who read this post, please don’t think about strange thing that happen between us. I just want to remind that lesson. An important lesson that often be neglected by us.

…and I Call Them My Best Friends

I’m really glad to be around them. Share the story, laugh, smile, sorrow, difficulties, problems, opinions, suggestions, love, etc. And you know, I believe in Angels, a kind of heaven sends….I’m surrounded by angels, and I call them my best friends....

There, I have a Pearly Words dedicated for all my besties ever, my true friends, my sincere friends, my inspiring friends, my real partner, my motivational friends…I don’t mention all Ur name, Pals,,, but I believe that U know what I mean…

“ If you're alone, I'll be your shadow. If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder. If you want a hug, I'll be your pillow. If you need to be happy, I'll be your smile. But anytime you need a friend, I'll just be me….”

And the most I can do for my friend is simply be his friend. Luv U all, Friends…

The Next Plan

In previous posting, I’ve share about my plan in this semester (3rd semester). And here, I’ll tell you some part of my next planning.

4th Semester : I’ve got such great self-improvement, then I’ll decide to join some competition. It can be any kind of competition that I think possible enough for me. Then, it will be very important for my experiences and portfolio. And it’s also one kind of self improvement, of course.

5th Semester : I’ll join many organizations, as much as possible, without neglecting other part of my life of course. There, I’ll learn about networking, lobbying, organizing, managing people, etc. I think, it will improve my Emotional Quotient and will be very useful for my own self.

6th Semester : I’ll keep in joining many organization, while make another kind of self-quality improvement. Such as, publish more book, do some prestigious projects, etc.

7th Semester : I’ll focus in my study, improve the predicate, got the maximum point of GPA (I hope so…). In this semester, I’ll have to prepare many things about my career, my future, my happiness of life,,, ^^

8th Semester : I have to be graduated in this semester. In this semester, I hope I can get the best in all part of my life. I hope I’ll be able to take the result of my effort along my university life.

Then, I’ll start my next part of life,,,I’ll start my career, my magister degree, etc. I’ll fight for everyone’s smile. I’ll let my parents, my sisters, my lover, my besties, my friends, my teachers, my lecturers, my colleagues, my relations, and many people around me become proud of me.

Let’s fight,,, the world is waiting for us =)

The Plan

I have made some plan to manage many things that will happen in the future. I have some short term plan and long term plan. Here I’d like to share one of my middle term plan, it’s about the plan in 3 years later, in my university life.

Now I’m in 3rd semester of Information Technology major in Ma Chung University. And to accommodate my future plan, I’m going to do this plan before,, here it is :

3rd Semester :

Here, beside my study, I’d like to focus on my self improvement. In this semester, I’ll try hard to improve my self-quality. I will learn much about integrity, leadership, time management, honesty, ethics, communication, responsibility, and many other things that will improve my self-quality. It also will influence my spiritual life, right? yes, spiritual life will always be in the high priority of my whole life.

In this semester, I will let away the organization for some time. I just be an ordinary student (with good GPA, of course, I hope) without a lot of important position in any organization. I decide to not join any organizing comitee ar hold much important position in any part of organization. The only important position (I think), that I hold now is just a Ma Chung website Administrator, and website coordinator for Jurnalistic Club (MCJC) in my campus. Even, sometimes I think it has been too much, but it’s okay.

To attain and accomplish the goal of this semester, I do some effort, hehe. I try to learn from many source, I read a lot of book, I listen many mp3 of self improvement, I spend much time for browsing, borrow many sources from friends and library, join the self-improvement seminar, learn from many people, share with others, etc.

It’s about process, and I hope in the end of this semester I’ll get :
- Good predicate (High GPA) for my study
- Better spiritual life
- GREAT self-improving, that will be very useful for my next part of long term plan
That’s my plan in this semester. I’ll try hard to accomplish that. And we will see what will happen in the future. I hope it will be great =)
