Welcome to the United State, First Snow, and One of my Big Dream Come True!

Yeah, I remembered well that I put the sign on my table and my wall at my room "Winter in USA 2011" I have never thought that it was true. It so fast for me, i wrote the sign about October 2010 when I have decided that I wanted to apply the IELSP (Indonesia English Language Study Program) Cohort 8. I couldnt imagine, because almost 2000 applicants from the whole Indonesia and 500 more students of the applicants from my University (University of Indonesia). Alhamdulillah, Subhanallah..Thanks bunch to ALLAH SWT who makes my dream real and come true..

I dont have the great tips for other people who want to apply the IELSP for next cohort. I just want to mention that your Parent's Pray moreover your Mom, is the most important. You cant live without her pray. Miss u mom..=)

So, everything you do just tell her. She will pray hard for you..
Back to the U.S..

Again, I couldnt imagine that now im here. Im in the United State. The state which really far far away from home. This my sixth country that i visited, but is outside Asian countries. And I got all covered by Scholarship. I didnt need to do fundraising like I did for my international conference usually.

Pretty Cold =)

Touching snow.. First snow..=)


Yeah, I love being here..
Thanks ALLAH SWT, Ibu and all my family, IIE, IIEF, ISU, friends and other people who always support me. Love u all! =)

Operasi Sapu Lidi

Salah satu contoh operasi hitung sapu lidi Sumber gambar :  dayufunmath.wordpress.com Usiaku saat itu masih enam tahun. Hari itu Kakekku resmi mendaftarkan aku sekolah. Ku lihat lagi selembar ijazah yang dikampit oleh Kakekku. Ku perhatikan baik-baik. Ada fotoku dua bulan lalu. Lucu. "Itu apa Kek?" aku menunjuknya. "Ini ijazah sekolah Neng yang dulu di Jakarta. Buat daftar sekolah disini" kemudian Kakekku menjelaskan. Tidak satu orangpun diantara barisan pendaftaran sekolah itu yang membawa lembaran bernama ijazah sepertiku. Nampaknya cuma aku seorang. Senin diminggu pertama sekolah. Aku sangat gembira. Seragamku kini putih merah terpisah. Rok rempel jahitan Nenekku dan kemeja putih bekas sekolah Taman Kanak-Kanakku dulu di Jakarta masih terpakai dan layak. Meski seragamku bekas, tetap terlihat paling bercahaya. Entah? Rasa-rasanya semua anak disini seragamnya tidak disetrika, apalagi mengkilat seperti seragamku. Sejak Ibuk

Japan! I promised u that I would be back!

Tokyo, 25 April 2011 Sekitar pukul 05.00 waktu setempat (Bandara Narita Tokyo) kami landing dari Minneapolis. Kebetulan saat itu rombongan IELSP Cohort 8 Iowa State University sudah tidak ditemani oleh pihak IIEF. Ali Ibrahim sebagai ketua rombongan dan saya sebagai wakil ketua rombongan. Sebagai orang yang sedikit mengerti dunia pesawatan saya mengambil peran lebih banyak saat kepulangan rombongan. Khususnya hari itu.. Delta Airlines (Pesawat kami) terkena petir Setelah mengantri di Security Check Bandara Narita saya segera mengalihkan teman2 untuk menuju Gate kami. Saat itu masih tidak banyak orang, kami berlari 'hurry' karena waktu transit tidak lama dan FYI : security check bandara narita 'agak' remphong, ribet, dan antrinya panjang, maklum Narita adalah salah satu bandara sibuk di Dunia. Setelah menunggu tiba2 ada pengumuman kalau pesawat kami akan delayed selama 30menit. Its okay , itu biasa. Kita tidak pernah tahu apah yang terjadi diudara. Tiba2, delayed
