Human is strong..

Well, since last Monday I have been an apprentice at Jakarta. I stay at my cousin's home which is 16km away from the office where I work. So I must ride bus Trans Jakarta to go there from my cousin's home. And everyday I go home, I never get a sit till half of my journey. And It's very tough!! The bus is so full and I must stay balancing its move. I'm so really really lucky that I can sit. Despite of how hard it is, I still amaze of the human's power.

Remind me of my Mom's saying, "susah karena belum terbiasa, kalau sudah biasa ya mudah."
Hmmm... But I keep this piece of puzzle to motivate me to reach a better life. And after a long journey like this, always give me a wake up call of how big people have struggled so much to reach their position now..

Dating... (/∀＼*)

Awawawaw... Do you know? My first job after graduated is as mobile app developer in Jakarta, so I moved to Jakarta. Six months later, watashi no koibito graduated and worked at Yamaha in Jakarta. At that time my Sister worked 2km away from my office, so I visited her regularly and we liked to hang out together with my Boyfriend. But time passed and now I basically work in Surabaya, my Sister in Osaka and my Boyfriend in Jakarta.

But it's a lucky thing that today I am an apprentice in Jakarta for one months. That is why now I am at Jakarta, and I can have a date with my Boyfriend.

Happy? Absolutely..

But the most "Waw" moment today is when my Sist chatted me and said that she miss us, remind us when we ate burger/chicken/pancake together. For me, it's a wake up call. Warning me how fast time passed away and how precious is now, for our future! Even eat a pancake can be so a lovely treasure.

Thanks to technology that can save that precious moments for the eternity. Thank you, thank you, thank you, that my life is so wonderful and full of lovely people.

Well, a moment ago I just watch this video and amaze. And realize something, which I have been forgetting it for so long.

It reminds me a couple months ago, when I watched a reality show on television, the host said something like this:

"I never believe in Luck. I always think that we are lucky because we have the knowledge to do, to make or etc, in the right time. Let say there's a lottery falling on the ground, if the man who passed that road didn't know it was a lottery, he wouldn't take it, or he even could throw it to garbage bin."

That time I think that's quite true. And I remember some months ago, I found something like this:

"Patient doesn't mean doing nothing, waiting with idly silent. But used everything you have to achieve your dream. As waiting that dreams became reality."

Well, when I think if I am the one who interviewed in that videos, maybe I don't know what to do in "Medical Assistant" interview scene. Looks like I should gain a knowledge about it, and train my courage. hahahha...

Believing is doing, courage is in action!

Because of my training program, I get a chance to teach some kids, which I dear so much when I have know them better in two days. So, I came at Akademi Komunitas Negeri Surabaya to practice my teaching skills. And they gave me this schedule :

_________________________________________________________________________________

========================================================================

First week  : Preparation before teaching

_________________________________________________________________________________

========================================================================

Second week :

Monday and Tuesday : Berlian Juliharta

Wednesday and Thursday : Bina Rahayu S.

Friday and Saturday : Wahyu Hany

========================================================================

Third week : Submit the syllabus, course meeting plan, moduls and scoring sheets. 

_________________________________________________________________________________

========================================================================

_________________________________________________________________________________

========================================================================

I am really lucky that I have this opportunity, I teach in all fresh graduate high schoolers and we only teach for two days and even the course material is new to me, Design web with CSS3. But it's really so fun! Seriously!!

At first week, we were working very hard to create the practice moduls and presentation file for the theory. Yes, it was so tiring and shocked us, Me, Berli and Hani. But, at the end, when we taught, it really is so fun.

First time in my life, I acknowledge that remembering the names and characters of 23 people is easy! I can't believe it either, but I just can see them and their motives and even their ability! I am so sad, that I must scoring them with numbers. I wish I could tell them what their talents is and what they weakness, better than just number of points.

And the most great things above all is, I still stay in touch with them by social media. :D
