That day was very historical. First, we were going to school to see the announcement oh National Exam. Second, we were going to make a birthday surprise for our bestf, Aldy. Third, actually it's out of plan, we were waiting for the announcement of SNMPTN Undangan. Ohiya ada satu lagi, hari itu juga my beloved Beat was gonna be taken to Bekasi, hiks :(.


That was the hit-list of that day. But the first, actually, UN announcement at school was just hoax! Dem.Kita udah dateng dari jam 10 pagi dan ternyata ga boleh masuk mesti nunggu di depan gerbang macem dihukum gara2 telat karena lagi ada UAS. Tuh kan hoax banget. Eh tapi ternyata Pak Sarwin keluar dan hanya memberi kita potongan2 info yaitu: "Lulus 100%. Iyan pemilik rata2 UN IPA tertinggi (yang ternyata Intan lah yang tertinggi -_- PHP)." Udah. Gitu aja. Sekian .


Already mid day~ It's time to prepare Aldy's late-surprise-party. We gathered at school and decided what to bring, what to give, and who else would come. We planned to buy martabak, but there's no martabak shop had already opened. So, kita malah muter2 ga jelas ke sana kemari (mencari alamat jeng jet). Pertama ke rumah Vira. There was a tragedy happened. It was Dhani. Entah dia lagi kenapa tiba2 dia ngomong "Eh..eh...ini gue kenapaaaaa~" sambil dia ngomong gitu, dia yang lagi duduk posisi orang di gonceng miring di atas motornya, perlahan2 mundur ke belakang. Dan ternyata tuh motornya ga seimbang dan jatuh! Yaampun itu lucu sekali! Soalnya dia tuh jatuh pelaaaaan-pelaaaaan banget macem slow motion. Dan begonya lagi Galih sama Yasin yang notabene lagi di kanan kiri Dhani tuh ga ada yang ngeh sama sekali -_- gue juga sih yang di depannya. Ya abisnya gue kira dia lagi becanda yaaaaa. Dhan! Lu ke-kurus-an sih! Ada angin kali tuh jadi lu kedorong ke belakang kan :p *kidding

Dhani *left*

Then we decided to buy kue biasa aja deh. Dapur Oven. It's emergency and we couldn't delay for another days. Pas kita ke sana, kue yang on display ga ada! Ya Allah Dy susah amat sih mau beli kue buat lu aja. Yaudah2 think fast! Finally Mamot and Galih (with a little bit much torturing and forcing) went to Gading and bought J.Co. Dah itu udah ga mungkin ga buka atau ga ada yang siap buat di take away. While waiting for 'em, we, the rest who waited, ngopi aja di Darkit. almost 1 hour later, WE REDEH! Udah siap aja kita. tim sukses, masih aja kepisah2. Gue udah ke gangan Aldy, eh ternyata yang lain malah ngumpul di rumah Haris -_-". Yaudah akhirnya we're preparing all the things in Haris's and walked to Aldy's. Ga jauh kok, cuma tinggal nyebrang aja. Ci_banteng---Ci_kijang. Next? Ci_babi *DIH


The story will be told by seeing pictures aja yaaa. Yuk disimak UI cekidot!

Starting line at Haris's

Happy Birthday Aldy!

 

Cheers!

Doughnut!

Kerjaan Aldy yang meperin donat ke pantat-pantat kita -_-"

(mencoba) membersihkan

Twiboy~

Macem cewe macho

V: "Jangan sentuh gue!" G: "Ayolaaaaaaah~"

Naaaaaaaaaaaah syudah sampai di situ kita bikin surprise kecil-kecilan buat Aldy. Unfortunately, karena saudaranya Aldy ada yang sakit jadi dia ga bisa ikut kita main-main hahahah :). Abis itu pada pulang Nad? Nope! Kita mau balik ke rumah Haris dulu kan, ya karena kita udah tau kalo pengumuman SNMPTN undangan adalah hari itu tepat pukul 5 sore, jadi kita memutuskan buat stay di rumah Haris buat liat pengumuman bareng-bareng. 

We're doing nothing. Rencana mau nonton film sampe Iyan kita suruh pulang ngambil film. Gataunya filmnya di USB -_- lah ga bisa di pasang di TV Haris, yasudah akhirnya kita nonton di laptop dan waktu sudah menunjukan 16:45. What was it mean??? 15 minutes last for the announcement!!! Woohoow! Trying to control our heart's beating but couldn't. We were watching but our minds were not.

5 PM~

IT'S TIME!!!!! Dan kita....gambreng! Gue, Iyan, Andre, Dhani, Haris. Irene decided to not look at it first because she forgot her registration number. Breeeeeeeng! Iyan pertama! Iyan megang laptop, Iyan mengetik, Iyan nunggu loading, sedetik kemudian......FTTM ITB!!! Howaaaa Iyan mundur selangkah, sujud syukur, nangis, pelukan bareng-bareng ({}). Aaaaaaah seneng banget ngeliatnyaaaaaa~ Andre kedua! Andre megang laptop, Andre mengetik, Andre nunggu loading, sedetik kemudian.......... Hhh bukan rezekinya, Andre belum lulus. Kita semua berusaha menenangkan, tapi doi sih ga nangis. Andre kuwat! Ketiga Haris! Haris megang laptop, Haris mengetik, Haris nunggu loading, sedetik kemudian.......... Hhh bukan rezekinya,Haris juga belum lulus. Haris tepekur, dia sedih. Kita semua mencoba menenangkan~ Haris kuwat!!!!!!! Keempat Dhani! Dhani megang laptop, Dhani mengetik, Dhani nunggu loading, sedetik kemudian.......... Hhh bukan rezekinya, Dhani pun belum lulus. Dhani cukup sabar menerimanya. Karena dari tadi juga dia udah bilang "Gue harus siap buat yang terburuk." Semangat Dhaaaaaan!

Okeh beres. Sekian. Nad pengumuman lu belum kali -_-" Ohiyaaaaaa! Ahahaha mau pura-pura dulu giduw deh, pasti kalian nungguin kaaaan :3. Nadia megang laptop, Nadia mundur, Nadia membuka hape, Nadia liat notes, Nadia liat nomor pendaftaran, Nadia balik lagi ke laptop, Nadia menguap, Nadia naikin kaca mata, Nadia mengetik, Nadia nunggu loading, sedetik kemudian......TEKNIK INDUSTRI UNDIP!!!!!!! 

 

Alhamdulillah ya Allah!!! I positively couldn't believe it. Sujud syukur. Nangis. Berpelukaaaaaaan~ ({}) Ah! Thanks my best for the support hugs. You made my day banget yah hari itu. Diawali dengan PHP-an pengumuman UN, ultah Aldy, sampe yang ga di rencanain pengumuman SNMPTN (yang alhamdulillah yah ga PHP). I'm glad to spend the day with you all. I'm glad knowing how care my friends are. I'm glad believing we wouldn't forget each other after grads. Together we keep wishing upon our star and we'll reach that wishing star. GLuck :).

Pleasure love,

Graduation 13 Senior High 2012

Graduation. Hhhh had been graduating on May 22nd. What's the story on my senior high graduation? TE-LAT. Yeah, LATE. I was coming late. It's because the 'Ibu-ibu Salon' yang telat nyalonin gue dan Vira, huft. Kita udah dateng on time (re: Vira udah dateng on time dan gue telat dikit) eh ibunya lama. We had an agreement to come by at 5 am, so early ya. Tapi apa daya, jam karet -_-". We were picked up by Vira's father at 7 am and we went to Balai Samudra togetha. Walhasil sampe Balsam jam setengah 8 dan walhasil ga ikut foto bareng wali kelas dan kelas. Howaaaaa :((( edodoe sedihnya minta ampun :((( Who's gonna be blamed of? Ohiya masa ya make-up nya kayak ondel-ondel -___-" putih banget bedaknya, ga natural HUFT. Kalo hair-do nya sih emmm kurang puas sih sebenernya, yang gue kasih contohnya ga gitu soalnya -_- Gamau di salon itu lagi lah~

Perhatiin make-up gue sama Vira, bandingin sama Mamot. Btw we three are in red <3

Syudahlah syudah mari kita berwisuda-ria. First of all, we all gathered at the lobby of Balsam to come into the ballroom class per class. Before that, we didn't want to lose some opportunities to take some pictures, and you can see how my make-up was. Hideous. Horrible. Disaster.


After we sat down on our own chair, the graduation had started. Begin with the speech from the principal, chief of School Committee, etc. Suddenly, there's a 'Flashback' video which is showing our last photos since freshman maybe. OMG, how embarrassing and funny at the same time, LOL. And the top of the ceremony was the graduation itself. We were called one by one to come to the stage and receive the medal and a report book. After that we took some pictures again. Yeaaah just so so sih sebenarnya wisudaan itu. Dari tahun ke tahun gitu-gitu aja. Ohiya there's something too. There was an announcement of 3 best students at Science and Social Department. And I was none of them hehehe. That's it. Sebenernya tahun lalu tuh banyak nominasi ini itu macem-macem tapi sekarang cuma nominasi itu aja. Pelit kali mahal beli piala wakakak.

The Ultimate Purpose

In order to be ones true self, it is necessary to obtain a wide and extensive knowledge of what has been said and done in the world; critically to inquire into it; carefully to ponder over it; clearly to sift it; and earnestly to carry it out.

It matters not what you learn, but when you once learn a thing, you must never give it up until you have mastered. It matters not what you inquire into but when you inquire into a thing, you must never give it up until you have thoroughly understood it. It matters not what you try to think out, but when you once try to think out a thing, you must never give it up until you have sifted it out clearly and distinctly. It matters not what you try carry out, but when you once try to carry out a thing, you must never give it up until you have done it thoroughly and well.

If another man succeeds by one effort, you will use a hundred efforts. If another man succeeds by ten efforts, you will use a thousand efforts.

Dreams Awaken

Good Day, everyone! Today, I just heard an inspiring story in NF. A story which is awakening my dreams again. It's like rising from the death because...yeah I never think about it again these days. I think I can't get it, it's impossible and NEVER be happened. But! Today, fellas! I talked to someone I barely know, a woman, suddenly she asked about my school then she started to talk about her child. And then that was when the story all began :).

She is actually the care taker of the canteen in NF Kramat. And I was on the receptionist desk, consuling about Biology with Ka BMC and Andini.

Ibunya: "Anak 13, ya?" (pointing the school badge on my right sleeve)

NAS: "Iya, bu. Hehehe" (muka nyengir, poni lempar samping)

Ibunya: " Anak ibu juga dulu anak galas loh!"

NAS: "Ohiya, bu? Kuliah di mana sekarang?"

Andini: "Itu kan ya bu yang anaknya di Belanda kan?" (tiba-tiba nimbrung, sok tau, padahal lagi konsul -_-)

NAS: "Ehiya, bu?"

Ibunya: "Iyaaaa. Anak ibu diplomat."

NAS: "HAH? SERIUSAN BU?" (ga nyantai)

Ibunya: "Iya, dia tadinya kerja di Deplu terus sekarang lagi ngelanjutin S2 di Belanda sambil jadi diplomat."

Naaaaaah. Dari situlah! Yang tadinya lagi konsul sama Ka BMC soal Bio TO, tiba-tiba Ibunya punya cerita yang SO MUCH, JAUUUUUUHHH lebih menarik. So, I ignored Ka BMC hehehe tapi kan masih ada Andini :). Yaps, that's it. The woman's first child (a girl) is a diplomat and now still continuing S2 in Dutch by a scholarship from Deplu. Hooooowwwwaaaaaaa how fascinating! That's really what I dream of. I dreamed of being a diplomat cause I wanted to travel around the world since I was in Junior High. Yaudah ceritanya in Bahasa aja ye, biar lebih nampol. Bilang aja Nad ga bisa bahasa Inggris? Heyaaaaah, diemin diemin -_-" sirik tanda tak mampu!

Jadi, anak ibunya ini perempuan, sekarang udah 29 tahun. Alumni SMAN 13 Jakarta, kuliah di UI, Ekonomi. Waaahh keren yah gitu kan, UI! FEUI! Widih! Tapi tapi tapi, actually, dia itu adalah sempet gagal di tahun pertamanya nyoba SNMPTN (dulu SPMB). Dia termasuk anak yang pintar di sekolah. Anak IPS yang selalu dapet peringkat 1/2 di kelasnya. Pas nyoba SNMPTN, dia GAGAL. Tau lah ya rasanya gimanaaaaa. Apalagi disaat dia tau banyak temen-temennya yang udah keterima di UGM, ITB, Undip, Unpad, etc. Waaah makin makin kan itu. How it hurts and sad :(. Jadi dia itu milih jurusan HI UI kalo ga salah tapi ga dapet. Dia nangis sejadi-jadinya.

Dia: "Pak, kok bisa sih ga lulus. Temen-temen yang di bawah peringkat aku aja pada dapet kok. Hiks"

Bapaknya Dia: "Yaudah, sabar aja. Sekarang kamu lihat coba ke diri kamu, gimana sikap kamu ke orang tua? Gimana kamu suka ngebentak ibu? Bikin ibu nangis? Mungkin itu yang bikin kamu gagal."

Itu yang diceritain Ibunya ke gue. Terus, dia katanya masuk ke politeknik negeri yang di bawah naungan UI sambil les lagi yang Ronin di NF pusat. Abis itu dia....

Dia: "Pak, aku pengen nyoba SNMPTN lagi nih."

Bapaknya Dia: "Yaudah coba aja, kamu pengen ngambil apa?"

Dia: "Masih bingung, Pak."

Bapaknya Dia: "Kamu maunya apa?"

Dia: "HI."

Bapaknya Dia: "Nak, diplomat itu ga harus dari jurusan HI kok. Kamu coba Ekonomi aja. Daripada bingung, sanah solat istikharah."

Nah, atas saran bapaknya akhirnya diambil lah jurusan Ekonomi di UI, dan dapet! Okeh! One day, there was an open recruitment from Deplu via internet. Terus dia nyoba daftar, tes tulis, wawancara. Jeng jeng....dapet! Di wawancaranya aja udah sama dubes-dubes ckck *ngiler. Ohiya awalnya dia dapet di bagian Perekonomian ASEAN. Nah kan ada hubungannya sama ekonomi. Bener kan apa kata bapaknya tadi, "Nak, diplomat itu ga harus dari jurusan HI kok.". Dari sini gue belajar, emang restu orang tua itu segala-segalanya. Saat kita jatuh sejatuh-jatuhnya, orang tua pasti jadi orang pertama yang bisa memotivasi kita buat kuat dan bilang "Ini belum ada apa-apanya dibanding masalah-masalah yang bakal kamu hadapin kelak". Satu lagi, gue yakin saat ada masalah kayak gitu, itu berarti ujian yang Allah kasih buat kita buat ningkatin iman kita dan bikin kita naik ke level kehidupan yang lebih tinggi. Dan gue juga yakin, Allah pasti punya rencana lain yang lebih WAH buat kita. Dan ternyata bener kan? It proved banget. Anak ibu kantin tempat les yang rumahnya masuk-masuk gang bisa jadi diplomat, sekolah di Belanda dibayarin pula, temenan sama dubes- dubes, pejabat, menteri. Menlu kita yang sekarang, Marty Natalegawa, dia pernah tuh salaman, ngobrol sama doi. Ididididih si bapak Ganteng! :3 (beneran dipanggil bapak ganteng katanya di kedutaan). Dia itu menlu terganteng kalo kata gue. Eh beneran, udah berumur tapi masih kece. Pengaruh globalisasi kali yaaa em, nih potonya:

Keliatan agak mudaan

Unbelievable banget. Dream comes true banget kan? Yang awalnya dia pernah ngerasain jatuh sejatuh-jatuhnya ga masuk PTN, temen-temennya udah pada ketawa-ketawa mau jadi mahasiswa, dia masih luntang-lantung ga jelas sambil bawa-bawa papan mimpi "JADI DIPLOMAT". Eh ternyata, kesabaran itu, ketegaran itu, dan ketidak-patah-semangatan itu (koreksi penulisan imbuhan) membuahkan hasil yang sesuai impian.

From that true story, I learned:

God will never gives you a test out of your capability, so you absolutely can pass it.

God blessing based on parents blessing.

Dreams are available for everyone but not everyone available for dreams. Only those who believe and try and never give up.

Don't stuck only in one way, there's a million ways to take.

Failure is the beginning of success.

Gak sampe situ aja loh ceritanya hehe. Terus kan gue nanya:

NAS: "Bu, anaknya udah nikah belom?"

Ibunya: "Belom. Iya nih padahal udah 29 umurnya."

NAS: "Emang belom ada yang ngelamar, Bu? Hehe."

Ibunya: "Ada sih udah lama, tapi anaknya nolak. Ganteng loh ganteng calonnya! Tapi ya karena itu, katanya sih banyak yang suka pacarnya, dia takut sakit hati."

NAS: "Oooh hahaha. Emang Bu emang." (sok tau, macem punya pacar aja -_-)

Ibunya: "Sekarang udah nikah orangnya, sama anak galas juga kok. Yang jadi penyiar di TV One."

NAS: "Ooooh. Hah? Gatau Bu hehe -,-. Terus gimana tuh Bu perasaannya dateng ke nikahan orang yang hampiiiiir jadi suaminya?" (kepo)

Ibunya: "Yaaa gimana yaaa. Dia juga sama ibu masih kenal kan. Dulu waktu pulang dari Vietnam juga anak ibu yang jemputin dia. Hidih bapaknya anggota DPR, ibunya Dirjen apa kalo ga salah. Nikahnya di Gelanggang Samudra itu yang di Gading. Yang dateng? Wiiihhhh menteri, pejabat."

NAS: "Hah? Gelanggang Samudra? Itu bukannya yang ada di Ancol? Yang tempat pertunjukan lumba-lumba, anjing laut? BALAI SAMUDRA kali Buuuu ahahahaha."

Ibunya: "Ahiya itu! Hahahaha. Iya kalo kata anak saya mah, kalo emang mau serius ya mesti nunggu dia tapi gataunya, yaudahlah. Orang katanya juga masih suka nelponin, ngajak nonton, gitu. Saya bilang aja, gausah."

NAS: "Ih! Yaiyalah Bu gausah. Jangaaaan. Cem ga ada cowok lain aja. (ikutan sewot) Terus jadinya kapan nikah, Bu? Haha"

Ibunya: "Iya nih gatau, jadi keasikan sama karir anaknya."

Nah dari sinih gue juga mikir. Kalo jadi diplomat, keasikan tuh kerja, dunianya udah asik banget. Ketemu banyak orang, jalan-jalan, ya emang sih ga jalan-jalan doang tappi juga kerja, sampe lupa sama salah satu ibadah, NIKAH. Apalagi Tante udah wanti wanti dari sekarang "Kamu nanti kalo cari kerja, cari kerjaan yang enak yang bikin kamu ga susah nanti kalo ngurus anak. Sekarang mah pengennya macem-macem, tapi nanti aja..." BOOM! Nah loh kan, bener juga. Buktinya anaknya si Ibu kantin aja masih belom nikah kan sampe sekarang, belum ada yang dikenalin lagi. Yaa masa sih ga ada cowok yang mau sama diplomat muda? Ya kaaan. Ya tapi gimana, masa suaminya mesti ikut ikut dia ke luar negeri, terus di sana suaminya ngurus anak gitu? Duuuh engga banget. That's also what I think about. I also think about that matter. Intinya, kalo engga bisa jadi diplomat, cari suami diplomat ajaaa hahahah :D. Ku rela kau bawa berkeliling duniah~:3
