ENGLISHBefore I start writing about Wednesday, let me start from Tuesday Story just a lil' after I had my LOGIC class. My LOGIC class was finished at 2.30 PM, and as you can read at my previous entry, this change still hasn't been fixed yet and I still need to make it fixed by registering at PKH. So, after class, with the risk PKH had already been closed yet and I knew that risk, I walked to PKH. And yes, twas close and the man there said I should come back the next day (today) between 8 AM and 12 PM. Well, FYI, today Unpar celebrates Dies Natalis (Birthday) and because of that there was an announcement yesterday that today from 9 AM till 1 PM there would be no class. Well, I had one class at 9 AM till 11 AM, and I was happy since today, it was off!! :)With nice mood in starting the day (which is usually a good thing), at 9 AM I walked to my campus to go to PKH. Arriving there, the man said, because there was a Dies Natalis Ceremony, so I should come back at 1 PM since the guy who was responsible for this was at the ceremony. Okay, so I went back to my boarding house and went to a hotspot cafe.At 12.15 PM I went back home and at 12.40 PM I walked to PKH again. I arrived there at 12.45 PM and waited for 1 PM to come. Time was ticking, and 1 PM came. The guy was still not there. Then, at 1.15 PM, the guy finally came, and guess what?? He asked us (well, not only me who apparently wanted to change MKU's schedule) to come back tomorrow morning between 8 AM and 12 PM!!! ARRRGGGGHHHHH...... . Wtf?? I have been there 3 times and I got THE SAME ANSWER to go back there next time??? Sh*t!! That's not my fault, I came there exactly at the time they mentioned and they canceled it with lame (or even NO) reason?? That really sucks!!! :( :(Okay, with a lil' anger feeling, I went back home and took a nap for 1 hr. At 2.30 PM I woke up and at 2.45 PM I went back to my campus to have my Second Calculus Lecture. Arriving there, I met my friends and they said that the lecture was canceled!! What!?!?!?!? (the first thing which popped up in my mind was: "Are you kidding me??"). I checked at the announcement board and there was no cancellation announcement and I thought they were just joking. But apparently, the were RIGHT!!! There was no lecture... . ARRRGGGGHHHHHHHH..... . Well, then, we played cards until 5 PM.So, today I went to my campus 3 times and also got 'tricked' 3 times... :( :( Whatta Wednesday.... . If I knew that, I would have relaxed all the day
::: quick update ::: (Thu, 1st Feb 07, 6.32 PM)
Btw, finally this morning I was able to meet him and fix my schedule. So, if there is changing in schedule anymore, so Saturday will be officially my off-day!!! :)
BAHASA INDONESIASebelum aku memulai menulis tentang hari Rabu-ku, ijinkan saya menulis sedikit cerita Selasa sehabis aku mengikuti kelas LOGIKA. Kelas LOGIKA-ku selesai jam 2.30 siang, dan seperti yang bisa dibaca pada postinganku sebelumnya, perubahan ini masih belum permanen dan aku masih harus membuatnya permanen dengan mendaftar ke PKH. Jadi, habis kelas kemarin, dengan resiko PKH udah tutup dan aku tahu resiko itu, aku berjalan ke PKH. Dan bener aja, PKH-nya sudah tutup dan kata orang yang disana aku mendingan balik lagi keesokan harinya (hari ini) antara jam 8 pagi sampe jam 12 siang.Hmm, FYI, hari ini Unpar lagi merayakan Dies Natalis (Ulang Tahun) dan karena itu kemarin ada pengumuman kalo hari ini dari jam 9 pagi sampe jam 1 siang ga bakalan ada kuliah. Nah, kan aku ada kelas tuh jam 9 sampe jam 11, berarti kelasnya kan libur, dan saya merasa senang!! :) Dengan mood yang baik dalam memulai hari ini (yang biasanya adalah hal yang bagus), jam 9 pagi aku berjalan ke kampus untuk pergi ke PKH. Habis sampai disana, karena ada perayaan Dies Natalis, jadi orangnya ngomong ke aku kalo aku suru balik lagi jam 1 siang soale orang yang bertanggung-jawab atas hal ini lagi ada di perayaannya. Oke deh, jadi aku balik ke kosku dan kemudian pergi ke kafe hotspot. Jam 12.15 siang, aku balik ke rumah dan jam 12.40 siang aku balik ke PKH lagi. Aku sampe jam 12.45 siang dan menunggu jam 1 untuk datang. Waktu berdetak, dan akhirnya jam 1 datang juga. Tapi orangnya masih blom dateng. Nah, akhirnya jam 1.15 orangnya datang dan tebak bagaimana?? Dia meminta kami (hmm, nggak cuma saya saja yang pingin mengganti jadwal MKU ternyata) untuk balik lagi besok antara jam 8 pagi - 12 siang!! ARRRGGGGHHHHH...... . Wtf?? Aku udah kesana 3 kali dan mendapatkan JAWABAN YANG SAMA untuk balik lagi lain waktu?? An***g!! Itu kan bukan kesalahan saya, aku dateng kesana tepat di waktu yang mereka sebutkan dan mereka membatalkannya dengan (atau malah TANPA) alasan (yg payah)?? Menyebalkan sekali!!! :( :( Okay, dengan sedikit perasaan marah, saya balik ke kos dan tiduran deh selama 1 jam. Jam 2.30 sore aku bangun dan jam 2.45 sore aku pergi ke kampus untuk ikut kuliah Kalkulus Dua. Habis sampai disana, aku ketemu temen-temenku dan mereka bilang kalo kelasnya dibatalkan!! Apa!?!?!?!? (hal pertama yang muncul di pikiran saya adalah: "Mesti bercanda nih"). Aku mengecek ke papan pengumuman tapi nggak ada pengumuman pembatalan kelasnya dan aku kira mereka ya cuma bercanda doank. Tapi ternyata mereka BENAR!!! Tadi nggak ada kuliah... . ARRRGGGGHHHHHHHH..... . Ya udah, trus aku main kartu deh sampe jam 5 sore. Jadi, hari ini aku ke kampus 3 kali dan juga 'tertipu' 3 kali... :( :( Benar-benar Rabu.... . Tau gitu kan aku santai-santai aja hari ini
::: apdet cepet ::: (Kms, 1 Feb 07, 6.32 PM)
Btw, akhirnya pagi ini aku bisa bertemu sama orangnya dan memastikan jadwal saya. Jadi, klo gak ada perubahan jadwal lagi, Sabtu akan menjadi hari libur saya secara resmi!!! :)
ENGLISHAs you can read at my previous entry, last weekend was an exhausting weekend for me where I had to go on hiking and some TA programs. Unfortunately, there was no compensation for the exhaustion I got. We still had a normal college-day on Monday. I got a class (Computer Programming Worklab) at 8 AM in the morning (the class was not canceled just like last week >> but that's okay, if it was canceled yesterday, I would be so pissed... :D Then, the class was finished at 10 AM. Well, as you can read at my other previous entry, I hate the new arrangement of my MKUs schedule and planned to change it. Actually, one alternative was taking the 10 AM Class on Monday, which I am free. But I have one consideration. My Programming Lecturer (usually) only gives us 1 week time to finish the assignment, and if I used my free time at Monday 10 AM, I then can't right after the class work on my unfinished assignment and finish that that day also. So, I decided not to take the Monday 10 AM class (well, 2 friends of mine take it anyway). At 1 PM, I got another lecture, Second Calculus. Unfortunately, I couldn't really concentrate on it since I was so exhausted and next week, there will be a quiz!! Arrrggghhhh.... . At 3 PM, my college-day finishedThis morning, my college day started at 7 AM and finished at 1 PM. Then, since I don't take the Monday 10 AM Class, so I choose to take the Tuesday 1 PM Class (well, Monday 10 AM Class and Tuesday 1 PM Class are about the same subjects, LOGIC, where I still have another MKU subject which I take this semester, Kewarganegaraan (I dunno how to translate it in English.. :D), which we (my friends and I) choose to take at Thursday 1 PM). Well, I was also so tired today... :( Well, it also means that Tuesday becomes the hardest day for me of the week this semester since I have lectures from 7 AM till 3 PM >> that's a bit 'ironic', last semester, Tuesday is the least tiring day of the week since twas my free-day!! :DThe changes I have made is still not fixed yet, and tomorrow I'm gonna make it fixed... :) If it's fixed later, so I will be absolutely free on Saturday!! (and no 7 AM class on Friday!! Yaaaayyyy.... :D)
BAHASA INDONESIASeperti yang bisa dibaca pada postingan yang lalu, akhir minggu kemarin adalah akhir minggu yang melelahkan untuk saya karena aku harus pergi hiking dan ikut program TA. Malangnya, nggak ada kompensasi atas kelelahan yang saya dapatkan. Kita masih mengikuti hari normal di hari Senin. Aku ada kuliah (Praktikum Pemrograman Komputer) jam 8 pagi (kelasnya nggak dibatalkan seperti minggu lalu >> tapi nggak papa sih, kalo kemarin dibatalkan aku malah jadi sebel tu... :D Trus, kelasnya selesai jam 10 pagi. Hmm, seperti yang bisa dibaca pada postingan lalu saya yang lain, aku benci penataan jadwal MKUku yang baru dan berencana untuk mengubahnya. Sebenernya satu alternatif adalah mengambil kelas jam 10 pagi di hari Senin, dimana aku kosong. Tapi aku punya 1 pertimbangan. Dosen Pemrogramanku (biasanya) cuma ngasi waktu 1 minggu untuk menyelesaikan tugas, dan kalo aku menggunakan waktu kosongku jam 10 pagi hari Senin, aku kan jadi nggak bisa mengerjakan tugas yang belum selesai tepat setelah kelas dan menyelesaikan hari itu juga. Jadi, aku memutuskan untuk tidak mengambil kelas jam 10 pagi (2 temenku tetep ngambil sih). Jam 1 siang, aku kuliah lagi, Kalkulus Dua. Sayangnya, aku nggak bisa bener2 konsentrasi soale aku capek banget sih dan minggu depan, akan ada kuis!! Arrrggghhhh.... . Jam 3 sore, hari-hari kuliahku selesai Pagi ini, hari kuliahku dimulai jam 7 pagi dan selesai jam 1 siang. Trus, karena aku nggak ngambil kelas hari Senin jam 10, jadi aku memutuskan untuk ngambil kelas hari Selasa jam 1 siang (Hmm, Senin jam 10 dan Selasa jam 1 tuh aku ngomongin jadwal tentang mata kuliah yang sama loh, LOGIKA, aku masih ada 1 mata kuliah MKU lagi yang aku ambil semester ini, Kewarganegaraan, yang kami (aku sama temen2ku) memutuskan untuk mengambilnya besok Kamis jam 1 siang). Aku juga capek bgt hari ini... :( Btw, artinya Selasa jadi hari paling berat deh semester ini, kuliah dari jam 7 pagi sampe jam 3 sore >> agak 'ironis' juga sih, padahal semester lalu Selasa adalah hari paling bebas saya soalnya ga ada kuliah tuh!! :DPerubahan yang aku ambil masih belum tetap sih, dan besok aku akan membuatnya jadi tetap... :) Kalo udah tetap, jadi aku benar-benar akan bebas di hari Sabtu!! (dan juga nggak ada kelas jam 7 pagi di hari Jumat!! Yaaaayyyy.... :D)
ENGLISHHello all, as you can read at my previous entry, I spent this weekend with my fellas at a villa for a TA (Temu Akrab). Well, I didn't really explain what TA is at my previous entry, so probably some of you don't really understand. Well, "TA" is an abbreviation of "Temu Akrab", it's an informal program held by my major where some mathematics students from any classes would meet and spend one night together. Just like its name (Temu Akrab), the main purpose of this program is to especially introduce the youngest class (now it's my class, 2006) to the seniors, so we (hopefully) will get along really nicely and become closer as friends (well, for some not only as 'friends' actually, lol) in one major.Day 1 (Saturday, 27th January 2007)This year, TA was held by the 2004 class. They decided this TA would take place at Istana Bunga Villa. So yesterday, according to the schedule, we should have departed at 2 PM. But because I live in a country named "Indonesia", the fact was that yesterday we departed at 2.45 PM. Arrrggghhhh.... (well, I always come on time... :D). At 4 PM we arrived at the villa. At 5 PM we got a game to do and we were separated into 4 groups and I was in the group 4. We were given a plastic of straws and 2 eggs plus a tape. We should do something to the eggs with the straws and tape so the eggs wouldn't be cracked or destroyed when we fell it to the ground. After the game was finished, we then had dinner. The dinner was also a farewell party for one of our young lecturer who will study for his doctoral degree at Netherlands starting next month... :) After the dinner there was a 'treasure-hunting' game. We gotta find a hidden 'treasure' by collecting 4 clues first. Well, we didn't get the 'treasure', but other team did... :( After that, we (as a class) had to perform a show (whatever show) in front of all. My class chose an easy one, singing... lol (2005 was drama, 2004 was 'star-stage'). Then, we had a cards competition (kinda bridge), since only 4 persons per-class were allowed to join the competition, so the other created another competition... :D Then, we had a barbeque (corn and banana) stuff and we were suggested to sleep since the next day we would go on hiking. But we DIDN'T!!Day 2 (Sunday, 28th January 2007)After midnight, my class took a walk around the villa area (and unfortunately a dog barked to us really loudly... :( ), then we went back to our villa and played a game. Three of my seniors, three of my friends and I played monopoly board game, where the other played cards again... :) At 2 AM, another senior aksed us to sleep, so at 2.15 AM we ended the game. Some friends were sitting and chatting at the porch and I joined them for several minutes, then I went to bed (the room was so small and limited, and luckily one place was still empty, so I slept there... :) I guess I started to sleep at 3.30 AM.At 6 AM, I woke up (arrrggghhhh, so I slept only for about 2.5 hrs). And I had breakfast only a slice of toast. Our plan this morning was 'hiking', and I was on the team number 4, and we would be the second to depart at 7.30 AM (schedule). Well, late once again, we departed at 8 AM. The hiking stuff was SOOO tiring. We took the longer track (it's not only longer but also pretty dangerous since twas SO slippery, inclining, declining, etc) Our destination was a small 'curug' (waterfall) with a small pond underneath it. There, we played a game. Easy to guess, it had something to do with water. We had 2.5 minutes to fulfil a basket with many leaks. Most of us (including me) got extremely wet because of this... :( :( :( The track back home was not so much different, it was another track but twas SOOO long and exhausting. I was damn exhausted today. After arriving at the villa, we had lunch and took a bath. At 2 PM, we went back to Bandung. Btw, because of the hiking stuff, I got sunburnt on my neck!! Now it's still pretty hurt... :( :(

Aku nggak terlalu menjelaskan apa itu TA pada postingan sebelumnya, jadi mungkin beberapa masih pada bingung ya apa itu TA. Hmm, "TA" adalah singkatan dari "Temu Akrab", yakni sebuah acara informal yang diadakan oleh jurusan saya dimana beberapa anak jurusan matematika dari angkatan berapapun ngumpul dan nginep bareng. Seperti namanya (Temu Akrab) bertujuan khususnya mengenalkan angkatan termuda (dalam hal ini angkatan saya, 2006) ke kaka angkatan, jadi kita (harapannya) akan berhubungan dengan sangat baik dan menjadi dekat sebagai temen (beberapa nggak cuma sebagai 'teman' sih, lol) dalam satu jurusan.Hari 1 (Sabtu, 27 Januari 2007)Tahun ini, TA dipegang sama anak angkatan 2004. Mereka memutuskan bahwa TA kali ini akan diadakan di villa Istana Bunga. Jadi kemarin, berdasarkan jadwal, seharusnya kita kan dah berangkat jam 2 siang. Tetapi karena saya tinggal di sebuah negara bernama "Indonesia", kenyataannya kemarin baru berangkat jam 2.45 siang. Arrrggghhhh.... (saya kan selalu tepat waktu... :D) . Jam 4 sore kita sampai di villa-nya. Jam 5 sore kita ada sebuah game dan kita dibagi menjadi 4 grup dan aku berada di kelompok ke-4. Kita diberi sebungkus plastik berisi sedotan, 2 buah telur, dan sebuah selotip. Nah, kita harus melakukan sesuatu pada telurnya dengan menggunakan sedotan dan selotip itu sehingga telurnya nggak akan retak ataupun rusak saat kita jatuhkan ke tanah. Habis game selesai, kita trus makan malam. Makan malamnya juga merupakan pesta perpisahan dengan seorang dosen muda kita yang akan pergi melanjutkan studi S3 (doktor) di Belanda mulai bulan depan.Habis makan malam, kita ada game 'berburu harta karun'. Kita harus menemukan 'harta karun' tersembunyi dengan mengumpulkan 4 petunjuk dulu pertamanya. Yah, kelompokku nggak dapet hartanya soale keduluan sama kelompok lain sih... :( Habis itu, kita (sebagai satu angkatan) harus mempersembahkan sebuah pertunjukan (pertunjukannya bebas) di depan semuanya. Angkatan saya milih yang gampang aja, nyanyi... lol (2005 drama dan 2004 'panggung bintang'). Trus kita ada kompetisi main kartu (cap sa / 13), dan karena cuma 4 orang dari 1 angkatan yang boleh main, yang lainnya juga membuat kompetisi sendiri... :D Trus, kita ada acara barbeque (jagung dan pisang) dan kemudian kita dianjurkan untuk tidur soale kan hari berikutnya bakalan ada hiking. Tapi kita ENGGAK!! Hari 2 (Minggu, 28 Januari 2007)Habis tengah malam, angkatan saya jalan-jalan bentar di sekitar villanya (dan sayangnya seekor anjing sialan menggonggong ke kita keras banget... :( ), trus kita balik ke villa dan main game deh. Aku sama 3 senior dan 3 temenku main monopoli dan temen2 yg lain main kartu lagi... :) Jam 2 pagi kita lagi-lagi disuru tidur, makanya jam 2.15 kita mengakhiri permainan. Beberapa temen lagi duduk-duduk di teras dan ngobrol dan aku ikutan bentar deh beberapa menit, trus bobok deh saya (kamarnya kan kecil dan terbatas, untung banget tuh ada 1 tempat yang kosong, saya kan jadi bisa tidur... :) Aku rasa aku mulai tidur jam 3.30 pagi deh. Jam 6 pagi, saya terbangun (arrrggghhhh, jadi saya tidur cuma sekitar 2,5 jam). Dan aku makan pagi cuma sepotong roti bakar saja. Rencananya pagi tadi kita akan 'hiking', dan aku ada di tim nomer 4 yang akan berangkat kemudian pada jam 7.30 pagi (jadwal). Hmm, telat sekali lagi, kita berangkat jam 8 pagi. Hikingnya bikin SANGAATTT capek loh. Kita ngambil jalur yang lebih panjang (dan lumayan berbahaya soale licin bgt, mendaki sekali, dan turunnya juga lumayan curam, dll).Tujuan kita adalah sebuah ;curug' (air terjun) kecil yang ada kolam kecil di bawahnya. Disana kita main game. Mudah ditebak, gamenya berhubungan dengan air. Kita disuru masukin air sebanyak2nya ke emper berlubang banyak selama 2,5 menit. Kebanyakan dari kita (termasuk saya) jadi basah sekali tuh karena ini... :( :( :( Perjalanan balik juga nggak beda-beda amat, merupakan jalur lain yang berbeda yang juga SANGATT jauh dan melelahkan. Aku capek bener nih hari ini. Habis sampe di villa, kita makan siang dan mandi. Jam 2 siang kita balik lagi ke Bandung, Btw, gara-gara hiking tadi, leher saya jadi terbakar matahari nih!! Skarang masih rada-rada perih juga... :( :(
ENGLISHLast night I watched the 12th episode of TARA. It was one of the most important episodes where we would find out who were the grand-finalist of TARA season 1.On the latest episode of TARA, all teams didn't have to leave United Arab Emirates. They had to leave the pitstart bounding for Desert Area Number 53 where they found out they had to do a Detour Task. The Detour Task was a choice between RIDE or SEEK. In Ride, teams had to ride a camel and grab 5 flags. In Seek, teams had to use a metal detector to find a camel souvenir buried beneath the sand. Then, they had to go to the Eye of Emirates (a ferris wheel, just like London Eye). There, they had to choose the correct cabin to find the next clue (only 5 of 42 of them correct). Then, they had to do a Road-Block Task at Al Maraqabat Restaurant and one of them had to eat traditional Arab Cuisine, brain. After completing it, they had to go to Sheikh Saeed Al Maktoum House and Wild Wadi Water Park to find the next clue. Then, they could proceed to the last pitstop of the race, at Mina A' Salam Beach. The final placing: Andrew&Syeon (1), Joe-Jer & Zabrina (2), Sandy&Francesca (3), and Mardy&Marsio (4 >> ELIMINATED). Arrrrggghhhh.... .
So sad Mardy&Marsio (Indonesian team) got eliminated, but that's okay. They had been extremely great and entertaining during the whole 12 episode they had completed. So, the final three were Andrew&Syeon (Malaysia), Zabrina&Joe-Jer (Malaysia), and Sandy&Francesca (Hong Kong). Who do I think would win the grand prize?? Hmmm, based on their performance from the first leg until the 11th leg, I think Andrew&Syeon were the strongest team... :) But it's also nice to see Joe-Jer&Zabrina won since if they really won, they would create a new history in The Amazing Race to be the first all-female team to win the race. (in fact, they were the SECOND all-female team to make it to the final three, after Lyn&Karlyn in TAR 10). We are still proud of you M&M!!! :)Btw, this Friday, I also had my ordinary college-day. I got up at 8.20 AM and after showering and having breakfast, I went to my campus to have my first lecture today at 9 AM (actually I was almost absent since twas raining, but I killed my tendency to absent). At 11 AM, my lecture finished and I met some 2004 seniors to talk about the TA (Temu Akrab) tomorrow... :) At 1 PM, my second lecture started. My lecturer of this second lecture (Linear Programming) is one of the eldest professor. Well, just as usual, I think he is extremely smart, but I guess he got one problem in teaching. He couldn't really explain the matery really well to us (compared to some other younger lecturers). O yea, according to the schedule, my Friday College-Day finishes at 4 PM, but this afternoon, it finished at 2 PM since my lecturer had an important business... . Btw, if my MKU is really on Friday, so on Friday, I would have to study at my campus starting at 7 AM until 4 PM with only 1 hr break at 12 PM till 1 PM!!!
::: quick update :::
Since this weekend I'm having a TA (Temu Akrab) with my fellows in math and we'll spend one night in a villa sumwhere (I dun remember the place), so this evening and tomorrow morning I won't be able to surf the net. Probably I'll be back tomorrow evening... :)
::: Top three of TARA season 1. From top to bottom: Andrew&Syeon (MY), Zabrina&Joe-Jer (MY), Francesca&Sandy (HK)
::: Mardy&Marsio / M&M (Indonesian Team), the last team to be eliminated
::: Leader-Board up to 12th episodeBAHASA INDONESIASemalam aku nonton episode ke 12 dari TARA. Episode ini adalah salah satu episode terpenting dimana kita akan mengetahui siapa saja grand-finalis dari TARA musim ke-1. DI episode terbaru dari TARA ini, semua tim ga harus meninggalkan Uni Emirat Arab. Mereka harus meninggalkan pitstart dan pergi menuju Desert Area No. 53 dimana mereka menemukan bahwa mereka harus melakukan tugas Detour. Tugas Detour-nya adalah pilihan diantara RIDE atau SEEK. Di Ride, mereka harus mengendarai unta dan mengambil 5 bh bendera. Di SEEK, mereka harus menggunakan alat pendeteksi logam untuk menemukan souvenir unta yang dikubur di dalam pasir. Kemudian, mereka harus pergi ke Eye of Emirates (kaya bianglala gitu, mirip sama London Eye). Disana, mereka harus memilih kabin yang benar untuk mendapatkan petunjuk selanjutnya (hanya 5 dari kesemua 42 kabin yang berisi petunjuk yang benar). Trus mereka harus melakukan Tugas Road-Block di Restoran Al Maraqabat dan salah satu dari mereka harus makan masakan Arab tradisional, otak. Habis menyelesaikannya, mereka mesti pergi ke Rumah Sheikh Saeed Al Maktoum dan Wild Wadi Waterpark untuk menemukan petunjuk selanjutnya. Kemudian, mereka bisa pergi menuju ke pitstop di Pantai Mina A' Salam. Posisi akhirnya: Andrew&Syeon (1), Joe-Jer & Zabrina (2), Sandy&Francesca (3), dan Mardy&Marsio (4 >> TERELIMINASI). Arrrrggghhhh.... .
Sedih juga Mardy&Marsio (dari Indonesia) tereliminasi, tapi nggak papa sih. Mereka kan udah bener-bener hebat dan menghibur sekali selama 12 episode yang sudah mereka selesaikan. Jadi, tiga besarnya adalah Andrew&Syeon (Malaysia), Zabrina&Joe-Jer (Malaysia), dan Sandy&Francesca (Hong Kong). Siapa yang menurutku bakalan menang?? Hmm, berdasarkan penampilan mereka selama babak pertama sampai babak terakhir, menurutku Andrew&Syeon adalah tim yang terkuat... :) Tapi asik juga ya ngeliat Joe-Jer&Zabrina menang soale mereka akan mencetak sejarah baru dalam The Amazing Race untuk menjadi tim semua-wanita pertama yang memenangkan pertandingan. (pada kenyataannya, mereka adalah tim semua-wanita KEDUA yang masuk ke babak 3 besar, setelah Lyn&Karlyn). Btw, kita masih bangga loh sama M&M!!! :)Btw, Jumat ini, juga adalah hari kuliah saya yang biasa. Aku bangun jam 8.20 pagi dan habis mandi dan sarapan, aku pergi ke kampus untuk kuliah pertama hari ini jam 9 (tadi hujan tuh, nyaris ga kuliah, tapi gajadi bolos... :D). Jam 11 kuliah pertama saya selesai dan aku bertemu beberapa anak angkatan 2004 untuk ngobrol2 aja tentang TA (Temu Akrab) besok... :) Jam 1 siang kuliah kedua saya dimulai. Dosen saya pada kuliah kedua (Pemrograman Linear) ini adalah salah satu guru besar / professor tertua. Hmm, seperti biasa, menurutku beliau bener-bener pintar, tetapi ada masalah deh dalam pengajaran. Menurutku sih beliau agak nggak bisa menjelaskan dengan sangat jelas ke kita (kalo dibandingin sama dosen-dosen lain yang lebih muda sih). O iya, berdasarkan jadwal, hari kuliah Jumatku akan selesai jam 4 sore, tp tadi siang selesai jam 2 soale dosennya ada acara penting... . Btw, klo MKU-ku beneran jam 7 pagi mulainya, maka pada hari Jumat aku akan kuliah dari jam 7 sampe jam 4 sore dengan hanya 1 jam istirahat, dari jam 12 sampe jam 1!!!
::: apdet cepet :::
Karena akhir minggu ini aku akan mengikuti TA (Temu Akrab) sama temen-temen dari jurusan mat, dan kita akan nginep di sebuah villa di suatu tempat (aku ga inget tempatnya), makanya malam ini dan besok pagi aku nggak akan bisa internetan. Mungkin aku akan internetan besok sore deh... :)
ENGLISHAs you can read at my previous entry, according to my last schedule, I am free on Saturday. All classes of mine this semester (including 2 MKUs class) were held on Monday till Friday. I WAS really happy. Unfortunately, yesterday there was a changing. When I looked at my MKUs schedule, both were changed to Friday 7 AM and SATURDAY 7 AM!!! Arrrggghhhh... . I really hate this change for two reasons. First of all, they moved it to Saturday!! If this really is, so Saturday is no longer an off-day for me, and I don't have off-day in a week (well, except Sunday). Second, both are at 7 AM!!! Arrrggghhhh.... . That's so so so early in the morning!!! :( :( :( Luckily, I still have one last shot, PRS. So, I still can reschedule my MKUs and move them to another day(s) and time-slot which I like and really fit me. I'll strive my best to change this damn new schedule of MKUs. Wish Me Luck!!! :) Btw, lately, everyday it was raining here in Bandung. It usually didn't last really long, but it really sucks sometimes. First, when I am (was) in a hotspot cafe, my fave seat is at the balcony. Even though there is a shed, but when it rains, I dunno how, the water still can get through. It's not that bad actually, just few water drops, but it still bothers me. Second, it really sucks when it is raining when I have to go to my college from my boarding house or vice versa. Even though I bring umbrella, it's just not that comfortable to walk on a rainy day... :(BAHASA INDONESIASeperti yang bisa dibaca pada postingan yang lalu, berdasarkan jadwal terakhirku, aku libur di hari Sabtu. Semua kelasku semester ini (termasuk 2 kelas MKU) diadain pada hari Senin sampai Jumat. Aku sangat senang. Sayangnya, kemarin ada perubahan jadwal. Waktu aku lihat jadwal MKU-ku, jadwalnya keduanya diubah menjadi hari Jumat jam 7 pagi dan SABTU jam 7 PAGI!!! Arrrggghhhh... . Aku bener-bener benci perubahan ini karena 2 alasan. Pertama, mereka menggantinya ke hari Sabtu!! Kalo beneran ini terjadi, maka Sabtu bukanlah hari libur lagi untuk saya, dan aku jadi nggak punya hari libur dalam seminggu (kecuali Minggu sih). Kedua, keduanya jam 7 pagi!!! Arrrggghhhh... . Itu kan sangat sangat sangat pagi-pagi sekali!!! :( :( :( Untungnya, aku masih punya 1 kesempatan, PRS. Jadi, aku masih bisa mengatur jadwal MKUku dan merubahnya ke hari-hari lain dan jam yang aku suka dan pas untuk saya. Aku akan berjuang keras tuh untuk merubah jadwal baru MKU yang sialan ini. Doakan saya ya!!! :) Btw, akhir-akhir ini, tiap hari hujan loh di Bandung ini. Biasanya nggak lama-lama amat sih, tapi kadang-kadang menyebalkan. Pertama, kalo aku sedang ada di kafe hotspot, tempat favorit saya kan yang ada di balkonnya. Walaupun ada pelindungnya, nggak tau gimana, waku hujan tetep aja airnya bisa masuk. Nggak separah itu sih sebenernya, cuma beberapa tetes air kecil aja, tapi lumayan mengganggu saya deh. Kedua, sangat menyebalkan kalo hujan terjadi saat saya harus pergi ke kampus dari kos maupun sebaliknya. Walaupun aku bawa payung, tetep aja kan nggak nyaman kalo harus berjalan di hari yang sedang hujan... :(
ENGLISHFinally officially yesterday my 1 month holiday was over... :( As you can read at the ::: quick update ::: part of my previous entry, yesterday I caught Argo Wilis Express from Surabaya bounding for Bandung via Yogyakarta. So, at 10.40 AM my mom (who brought me to the station) and I left my home and went to Yogyakarta Tugu Railway Station. Otw, we dropped in at Mirota Bakery to buy some bread for my snack during the Yogyakarta - Bandung trip. At 10.55 AM, we left Mirota. Since according to the schedule the train would arrive at Yogyakarta Station at 11.31 AM (so it was still more or less 30 minutes), so we delivered some stocks first to Malioboro Mall. Then, at 11.15 AM, we arrived at the station.Well, at 11.20 AM, there was an announcement: "For all passengers of Argo Wilis..." Well, then I prepared myself and took my bags. "Argo Wilis Express will be late, it will arrive at Yogyakarta Tugu Railway Station approximately at 12.20 PM. Thanks for your attention". Arrrrggghhhh... . So it was still about 1 hour to go!! One hour is not so short, but also not so long so I could go somewhere. So, we had no other option than waiting for it until it arrived.At 12.30 PM, the train finally arrived. I got in my cart (Executive Cart 2), and at 12.35 PM, it left Yogyakarta Tugu Railway Station.>> FAST FORWARD >>At 7.30 PM, Argo Wilis arrived at Bandung Railway Station. There, I bought 2 boxes of meal at Hoka-Hoka Bento (1 for last night and 1 for this morning). Then, I caught a taxi to get back to my boarding houseBtw, today my college-days start. According to the schedule, this morning at 8 AM there would be a Computer-Programming Worklab Class. Well, at first I didn't really notice the word "worklab", so I just went to my campus. And apparently, there was NO class for today!! That makes sense actually, we haven't got the theory, so how could we do the worklab?? :) Btw, seemingly, this semester, I got only 1 off day during the week (excluding Sunday). Lesser than semester 1 where I got 2. But my off day this semester is SATURDAY!!! That's nice!! :) So I can get a pretty long weekend... :)
BAHASA INDONESIAAkhirnya secara resmi kemarin liburan satu bulanku selesai juga... :( Seperti yang bisa dibaca pada bagian ::: apdet cepet ::: dari postinganku sebelumnya, kemarin aku naik kereta ekspres Argo Wilis dari Surabaya tujuan Bandung via Yogyakarta. Jadi, jam 10.40 pagi, mamaku (yang mengantar saya ke stasiun) dan aku berangkat dari rumah dan menuju Stasiun Kereta Api Tugu Yogyakarta. Dalam perjalanan kita mampir di Mirota Bakery untuk beli beberapa roti untuk bekal selama perjalanan dari Yogyakarta tujuan Bandung. Jam 10.55, kita meninggalkan Mirota. Karena berdasarkan jadwal kereta akan sampai di Yogyakarta jam 11.31 pagi (jadi kan masih sekitar 30 menitan lah), jadi kita mengantarkan beberapa stok barang dulu ke Malioboro Mall. Trus, jam 11.15 pagi, kita sampai di stasiun. Hmm, trus jam 11.20 pagi, ada pengumuman tuh: "Kepada semua penumpang Kereta Api Ekspres Argo Wilis..." Ya trus kan aku siap-siap dan mengambil tas-ku. "Kereta Ekspres Argo Wilis akan mengalami keterlambatan dan diperkirakan akan sampai di Stasiun Tugu Yogyakarta pada pukul 12.20 siang. Terima Kasih atas perhatiannya". Arrrrggghhhh... . Jadi ternyata masih 1 jam tuh!! Satu jam tu nggak pendek, tapi juga nggak sepanjang itu untuk pergi kemana dulu. Jadi, kita nggak ada pilihan lain selain ya menunggu sampai keretanya datang.Jam 12.30 siang, keretanya akhirnya sampai. Aku naik di gerbongku (Eksekutif 2), dan jam 12.35 siang, keretanya meninggalkan Stasiun Kereta Tugu Yogyakarta. >> FAST FORWARD >>Jam 7.30 malem, Argo Wilis sampai di Stasiun Kereta Api Bandung. Disana, aku beli 2 boks makanan di Hoka-Hoka Bento (1 untuk kemarin malem, dan 1-nya untuk pagi tadi). Trus, aku naik taksi deh untuk balik ke kos. Btw, hari ini hari-hari kuliahku dimulai. Berdasarkan jadwal, pagi ini jam 8 akan ada kelas Praktikum Pemrograman Komputer. Ya pertama aku nggak terlalu memperhatikan kata "praktikum", jadinya ya aku pergi aja ke kampus. Dan ternyata, NGGAK ada kelas loh!! Masuk akal sih, kita blom dapet teorinya masa mau langsung melakukan praktikum?? :) Btw, kayaknya semester ini nih, aku akan punya 1 hari libur deh (nggak termasuk Minggu loh). Lebih dikit dari semester 1 kemarin dimana aku punya 2 hari libur. Tapi hari liburku semester ini adalah SABTU!!! Bagus banget kan!! :) Jadi, aku bisa memiliki weekend yang lumayan panjang deh... :)
ENGLISHLast Friday was such a tiring day for me. I had no plan with my friends, so when last Thursday my mom offered me whether I wanted ro not to go to Solo the next day (Friday), I accepted it. We went there not for vacation or what, but for checking and stocking our shops there, Kassaya, there (2 shops and 1 counter).So, yesterday at 9.20 AM, we left Yogyakarta heading for Solo. At 10.30 AM, we arrived at Solo Square. Two (just as usual) employees (Dewi and Nika) were on duty there yesterday morning. After spending 2 hrs, there we left Solo Square and went to Solo Grand Mall. Before we went to our shop, we had lunch first at SGM's foodcourt upstairs. At 1 PM, we went down to our shop. Two (just as usual) employees (Meli and Tuti) were on duty, and several minutes later, another employee (Asnia) came for the evening shift which starts at 2 PM. There, my mom interviewed a new person for the SPG job in Solo. At 3.45 PM we left Solo Grand Mall and went to ALFA Solo Baru. If at Solo Square and Solo Grand Mall we have 'shop's there, in ALFA Solo Baru we only have a small counter, so each shift, only 1 employee on duty there (yesterday evening twas Erna). At 6 PM, we went back to YogyakartaThis morning, when I was still enjoying my precious sleep, there was an EARTHQUAKE here in Jogja!! Well, when I first felt that, I thought twas gonnabe quick, and it would last soon. But it didn't!! I realized that twas pretty long (around more than 5 secs) and I woke my brother up and we went downstair to escape. But otw, the earthquake stopped. Well, twas not really a big earthquake compared to the devastating and destructive 27th May 2006 earthquake I guess... :)
::: quick update ::: (Sun, 21st Jan 07; 9.20 AM)
- As you can read at one previous entry, I got 70 coupons of lucky draw. Yesterday when I went to Malioboro Mall and looked at the winner list, my name was NOT written there, in other words, I didn't win. Arrrggghhhh..... . Well, that's okay actually
- today at 11.30 AM I'm going back to Bandung catching Argo Wilis Express, so, holiday is really over today... :(
-- commercial break --
::: Kassaya Solo Square
::: Kassaya Solo Grand Mall
::: Kassaya Counter at ALFA Solo Baru-- commercial break ends --BAHASA INDONESIAJumat kemarin adalah hari yang melelahkan buat saya. Aku nggak ada rencana sama temenku sih, jadinya Kamis kemarin waktu mamaku nawarin mau nggak pergi ke Solo besoknya (Jumat), ya aku mau-mau aja. Kita kesana bukan untuk liburan atau apa, tapi untuk mengecek dan menge-stok toko2 Kassaya disana (2 toko dan 1 counter). Jadi, kemarin jam 9.20 pagi, kita meninggalkan Yogyakarta dan menuju ke Solo. Jam 10.30 pagi kita sampe di Solo Square. Dua (seperti biasanya) pegawai(Dewi dan Nika) lagi bertugas disana kemarin pagi. Habis menghabiskan waktu 2 jam, kita meninggalkan Solo Square dan pergi ke Solo Grand Mall. Sebelum ke toko, kita makan siang dulu di foodcourtnya SGM di lantai atas. Jam 1, kita turun menuju ke toko. Dua (seperti biasa) pegawai (Meli dan Tuti) lagi bertugas, dan beberapa menit kemudian, pegawai lainnya (Asnia) datang untuk shift sore yang dimulai jam 2. Disana, mamaku juga mewawancarai orang baru untuk pekerjaan SPG di Solo. Jam 3.45 sore, kita meninggalkan Solo Grand Mall dan menuju ke ALFA Solo Baru. Kalo di Solo Square dan Solo Grand Mall kita punya 'toko' disana, di ALFA Solo Baru kita cuma punya counter kecil, jadinya tiap shift ya dijaga sama 1 pegawai aja (kemarin sore yang jaga Erna). Jam 6 sore, kita balik ke YogyakartaPagi ini, waktu aku masih lagi menikmati tidurku yang berharga, ada GEMPA BUMI lagi loh disini di Jogja!! Waktu pertama aku ngerasain, aku kira bakalan cepet dan cepet selesai. Ternyata ENGGAK!! Aku sadar kalo itu lumayan panjang (sekitar lebih dari 5 detik) dan aku membangunkan adikku dan kita turun ke bawah untuk menyelamatkan diri. Tapi dalam perjalanan, gempanya selesai. Hmm, nggak sebesar dan separah dengan gempa merusak dan menghancurkan 27 Mei 2006 sih ... :)

- hari ini jam 11.30 nanti aku akan balik ke Bandung lagi naik Kereta Api Argo Wilis, jadi, hari ini liburanku bener-bener dah selesai deh... :(
