EDMAT 32, Ten Days Journey for a Lifetime Friendship

It started coincidentally. Thanks to Archemi yang udah ngajakin aku ikutan daftar Edmat, padahal itu semua tanpa keseriusan yang mendalam waktu mengumpulkan registrasinya. Sewaktu wawancara pun, tanpa baca2 dulu all about edmat. Just modal nekad.
Waktu pengumuman, ternyata efeknya luar biasa. Di peringkat 4. Trus kumpul rapat or briefing bareng Pak Syafruddin di dekanat. Mula2 bingung, ga saling kenalan. Rapat soal buat paspor, bentuk kepanitiaan, n gw jadi tukang ngurusin form alias seksi humas.
And then, the story goes. No day passed without briefing. Every single day we practiced, met, practiced, met, and so on. Singing cublak2 suweng and dancing gambang semarang.
Ada ketegangan, ada perselisihan, ada dukungan, but most of all, a lifetime friendship just had been started.
And the big day comes. December 4th, 2009, at 11 p.m, we gathered at Tawang station, heading for Gambir station, Jakarta. And then took a Malaysian airlines flight from Soekarno-Hatta airport to Kuala Lumpur International Airport. Adjusted my watch to KL time zone. The OC fetched us from KL central to 11th College, University of Malaya.
The eight-day camp contained so many pieces of a friendship fruit cake. A lotta love, a bunch of smiles, eight great days and seven fun nights.
On the last night of edmat, there was a gala dinner in Hotel Eastin, and all group performed something.
I got award Best female participant. King went to Handoyo Ogy, Queen went to Putri PW, and best group went to my group, group 8 (Ampere).
Terima kasih untuk semuanya, untuk para OC yang udah direpotin participant dari Indonesia…
Untuk para speaker, lecturer, dean, vice chancellor…
Untuk teman2 baru dari Malaysia yang mau membuka hati untuk kami…
Untuk jajaran petinggi Universitas Diponegoro yang berkenan mengirim kami para mahasiswanya untuk ikutan EDMAT camp…
Untuk teman2 Indonesia yang hebat2…kalian benar2 (minjem istilahnya bang Ahlan Zulfakhri) star jurusan kalian masing-masing…semuanya, kita adalah tim yang hebat.
Untuk Lee,Fariz,Fizah,Zuraifah, dan Christine sebagai teman2 seperjuangan di grup 8 Ampere…
Semuanya, pengalaman indah ini nggak akan terlupakan begitu saja, bukan cuma berakhir di tanggal 13 Desember 2009, tapi akan kita bawa selamanya. Link, network, friendship, or whatever-lah yang telah kita bangun di Universiti Malaya, akan selalu eksis selama kita mau menjaganya lewat email, facebook, Y!M, MSN, even SMS.
Zia you all!!
P.S. Maaf kalo notes ini gak lengkap karena ada terlalu banyak yang ingin saya ungkapkan namun terlalu sedikit waktu yang saya miliki. Hope you’ll understand.

Akhirnya Ngalah Punya Facebook

For My Sanctuary

Dear Oh,

Your manner to me is doubted. I simply dislike the way you think that every single tenderness from me really can disrupt your focus on finding a job. Actually, there is no such thing that relating with other people totally pull you out from reality.

Honey, I obviously have the same aim, basic goal, with you. What am I to destruct your hope of success?? I do hope for your job, too. I know that will be your bullet to ask for my hand, someday. But you’re like in a big stress, just get relax. Remember, God’s time is different from ours. HE will make everything settles in time, but you couldn’t know when. All and at once, you may get anything happened.
The essential art of life–especially in your stage of life at the moment–is to wait and see.
Look at the birds outside. They nor reap nor gather, but your Heavenly Father nurtures them. Aren’t you not of more value than they?

I know this is not as simple as I may think, but I just try to cheer you up. Your anxiety, sadness, and sorrow influences me too. You are me and I am you, we are one soul divided into two bodies. How could I be fine when you are unwell?? It is too high for me to be a light on your pathway, since many dark sides of me are still unveiled. But I will be your wings when you need to fly and a holding hand friend when you need to walk. Just let me know that you accept me in your life, then we can start the journey together.

I also apologize of my doubt of you. Love is irresistible, but to be loving requires more than a passion. Maybe I need to be more patient to overcome this circumstance. But in every single step, every sob, every tear, every smile, every cheer, remember that…i love you.

Love,
Nonik Langit

Perantauan EDMAT ke Malay

Wekekekekeke…akhirnya seperti pelangi sehabis hujan, datanglah anugerah yang dinantikan.
Tanggal 6-15 desember 2009 ntar aku n 19 delegasi Indonesia dari Fakultas Teknik Undip mau ikutan training EDMAT di Universiti Malaya, Malaysia, lebih jelasnya googling aja cari EDMAT 32 gitu. Nah, seperti biasa orang mau berangkat luar negeri, jauh2, sibuk ngurus paspor, registrasi, dll, n materi. Di sana tuh, sepahamku, kayak LDO gitu, ada workshop, training motivasi, outbound, games, dll. N yang pasti serunya bisa sharing2 dgn sesama engineering student luar gitu, kan asik banget. Trus tuker informasi, make acquaintance, jalan2 ke tourism spots, n blanja2 hehe (kalo cukup ringgitnya). Blum2 dah pada bwt list oleh2 lagi…dasar mahasiswa hehehe…
Masih bingung, di sana sempet konek ol ga ya, kalo ya kan lumayan sempet ngeblog n twitteran juga. Just make the best of my english pronunciation. Malaysia, as a commonwealth, use British english, rite, not American english? Practically, there are few differences between them, but I try to use the American since the participants are from Asia Pacific.
Malaysia, here I come….
God, protect us. We’re foreigners.
