It's Not About Who's Smarter

It's not about who's smarter, it's about who gave the most effort.

This post dedicated to my scores at the fourth semester of my college.

I just got all scores published. The scores published gradually. I mean they were published one by one, not simultaneously out together. My first five scores are perfect (simply fits to my target). I was happy at that time and feel really peaceful because the last four subjects that haven't been published are not the subjects I was scared of. Two of the subjects are subjects that being taught by the lecturer on the last day of the week (on Friday).

At the time when one of the four subjects finally published, I was so shocked.  How can I get B- when it was actually an easy-peasy subject (well at least this was what many seniors said about the subject). And when I asked my friends, most of them got around that too. I was expecting too high on that subject. And when one more subject published, I was even MORE SHOCK! It's so far away from what I've targeted before. I felt so dumb. I didn't take this subject seriously because I was underrated this subject. I did study, but not as hard as the other subject.

The next subject finally published too. Thank God it fits my target. And now I'm still waiting for the last subject to be published. Hope it also fits my target.

These two subjects that didn't fit my target were subjects on my last day of the week. They may say "Thank God it's Friday" but I can't be that excited as that tagline sounds like (on the class). So I can say that I'm demotivated on a week of class. I'm excited on Monday, getting really excited on Tuesday, pretty bored on Wednesday, got terribly excited but exhausted on Thursday and lazy on Friday.

Yes. I'm a bit underestimating those subjects. Yea you know regret always come late. But at least now I know my failure and the most important thing LEARN A MESSAGE BEHIND IT.

God wants me to be more eager to be consistent and give the best effort of me in every subjects, even aspects of life. Though again I can't fulfill my GPA target.

I won't spill another grumble, I just want to be a better me, give the best of me and sharing this so that (hopefully) you can learn from my story dearest reader :)


xoxo,

Best Delegate in TEIMUN 2014: Have Faith, It Will Lead You Anywhere You Want

I love travelling since I was born (haha sounds nonsense) but really! I was very lucky to conquer some parts of USA and Europe in my early age. It's because of my father. He had his master in Pittsburgh and my mother followed him there. Unluckily, I remember nothing. I could just stare on the beautiful printed photos inside every page of some big albums in the house. When I reached the third year of my university, I found an activity that might bring me back to USA. Yes, it was a Model United Nations. It is a simulation of United Nations Assembly. As the name suggests, Model United Nations, or more commonly known as MUN, is an academic simulation of the United Nations. Basically, delegates inside an MUN will act as a representative of a nation state and convey its stances upon certain global issues. Through MUN, delegates will have the opportunity to learn more about diplomacy, public-speaking, critical thinking and also legal drafting. The MUN that I was talking about was Harva

Suka Duka Wartawan Tempel AHY-Sylvi

Tepat satu minggu sudah, saya tidak bergerilya. Haha bukan bukan, bukan lagi perang kok. Ituloh, istilah buatan Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY) untuk kegiatan kampanye-nya setiap tatap muka dengan masyarakat. Duh. Iya, sejak bulan Oktober 2016 tiap hari saya liputan gerilya AHY. Gimana sih rasanya tiap hari liputan hal yang sama selama 4 bulan? Awalnya kirain bakal bosen. Ternyata setelah akhirnya nggak gerilya… Ku menyadari… Rindu itu nyesek yah. Lebay? Sesuai janji, ini nih, ceritanya… --- Bulan Oktober lalu saya mendapat kepercayaan untuk menempel pasangan calon DKI nomor urut 1, Agus Yudhoyono (Mas Agus) dan Sylviana Murni (Mpok Sylvi). Sepertinya kantor tahu saya junior-nya Mas Agus di SMA Taruna Nusantara (yaa meski terpautnya jauh banget sik 13 tahun!) Sehingga diharapkan saya bisa cepat dekat dengan Mas Agus secara personal. Saya sempat khawatir tidak bisa objektif dalam membuat berita. Tetapi kemudian saya yakinkan (cielah yakinkan, bahasa AHY banget) bahwa saya

Jadikan SMA Taruna Nusantara Hebat Kembali

Sebuah tulisan refleksi dari seorang alumni. Jujur, perlu waktu beberapa jam untuk memahami berita tewasnya seorang adik siswa SMA Taruna Nusantara. Hingga saat ini pun masih sangat sulit untuk mempercayai hal ini. Lebih tepatnya, batin saya menolak untuk percaya. Ketika mendapati informasi bahwa aparat kepolisian telah turun tangan menangani proses penyidikan, barulah saya mau menelan pil pahit ini. Meski rasanya... lebih dari pahit. Entah kata sifat apa yang bisa menggambarkan perasaan yang sebenarnya. Kaget, sedih, kecewa. Semua larut dan bergolak dalam jiwa. Awan tebal menyelimuti relung kalbu saya. Memang, saya tidak kenal dengan adik yang menjadi korban ini. Tapi rasa memiliki kami sebagai alumni terhadap almamater sangat kuat. Rasanya seperti adik sendiri. Bagaimana tidak, kami semua pernah merasakan ditempa di kawah candradimuka kampus biru SMA Taruna Nusantara, sekolah yang digadang-gadang menghasilkan pemimpin bangsa. Kami semua berjuang melewati hari tanpa orang tu
