If i have to describe my-most-miracle-thing-happened-last year, that would be 'Malang, Mei 2009'. At first it never crossed my mind to enter this paper competition. All the things came so fast until me, Alfia Oktivalerina, and Cynthia Andini Pusparani decided to try our luck as 'freshmen' in the paper competition world. For finishing the paper, we sleepovered for several times (but always ended by watching Gossip Girls's Series or 'curhat-ga-jelas', hahahaa). Then the big day came!! But we haven't prepared the persentation yet by the time we flew to Malang. Yeahh we thought we could make it just an hour, so it was okay lahh. Furthermore, all of us were so busy in finishing all mid-exam papers or the organizational matters that time. What an excuse guys!! :D
So here we came the Big Day. Since i lived in Kutek, a rural-area-far-away-behind-UI, i decided to stay in Cynthia's room first, near Margonda. Ohh yahh, as our bad-track-records for sleepover by studying aliby that just turned into gossip session, we did it again that night. Well-done!! Hahahaa. Then we went off at 4.30 am the next morning. The morning breeze felt so freezing that time. Margonda who is well-known with its traffic, was seemed so empty. We arrived in the airport around 6 am. We flew with Sriwijaya Air. I thought it's not so bad, at least u are given snack, and the seat-arrangements are much more humanized than the other one. Actually we have promised to learn some in the flight, but the truth was all of us were fallen asleep >.<
Finally we arrived in Malang, a lovely city. The committee picked us up and became our tour guide during our journey to the pit-stop (actually it was the Project Officer's house that turned into our stays for a while before moving in to our real hostel). I know it's already too late. But please let me express a deep apologize for our bad behavior that time. I knew that we gave u many troubles there by demanding a lot. Thanks to the driver, and 3 gentlemen who always accompanied us :'( Okay. The strory continued. Then we were transferred to the hostel. Because we arrived so early, we still had free time. So me, Via, and Cynthia decided to escape first, and get some fresh air outside. We looked for a cafe with wi-fi so that we could connect to the internet to send our mid-paper and make the slide. But we couldn't find it!! So we gave up. We picked a cafe with a good balcony and had some snacks there. At last we prepared all the things. But it was not finished yet. But we still had to send our paper via e-mail. So we moved on and spent our afternoon by exploring Malang to find WARNET (on foot)!! :))
In the evening, there was a welcoming party. I really enjoyed that session. I met lot of friends from many kind of universities. I decided to have dinner together with other delegates from UGM (Fandy and Bhima) and had a loooong chat that night. Thanks to u guys :) After the welcoming party, there was a technical meeting for the competition tomorrow. Since me, Via, and Cynthia had to depart so early tomorrow, we were given the first chance to deliver our paper. Ohh my God!! Yeahhh u surely can predict what happened next. Me, Via, and Cythia had to stay alert whole night long to finish and prepare the persentation. That's killing!! Aaaaaaaaargghh..
Feeling sleepless and nervous, we went down to have our breakfast. But i felt so not into it. It was not because the food. But because my heart was jumping like a jumper in olympic game!! Shiiiiiiit. It was my first time in paper competition. I barely had no idea what to do there. Then i felt so intimidated also with the other delegates who have been experts in this field (i was just a newcomer, hiks). The worst part was that WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY CHANCE EITHER TO LEARN FROM THEM SINCE WE WERE THE 1st TEAM!! Ohh yeahhh. Perfect!!
So here we were, in a cold room with table forming a square. Actually we did not succeed with the persentation. We couldn't answer the judges' questions well. So not good lahh. Hmmm. After finishing our turn, we went back to our seats. I knew clearly what Via and Cynthia thought at that time. Then we held our hands together below the table. Cynthia started the conversation: "Maaap yahhh teman2.." Then Via added it also "Maaap yahh. Persentasinya jd ga maksimal.." Huuuuuuuuaaaa. We confessed our feelings there. Even Cynthia texted her mom and (loved her mom most) she said nice things to make us stand up again. At that time we belived that we had failed this time. We even could not wish to win any prize. We surely knew that we didn't make it well. Then we made promise to enter such a paper competition again next time and we should be better!!
After 5 teams (or more) delivering their papers, we had a break. That meant also that we had to go back to Jakarta. So we said farewell to other delegates and commitee. We exchanged our contact and promised to always keep contact eventhough the event has finished. So there he was, standing with his teammate. If i could freeze a moment in my life, it might be this one >> when i met Farza Faremi at the first time. Honestly, i never put any attention to him if he was not Rifky Hilmayanto's teammate. Yeahhh i promised to my best friend, Faisal Rachman, to be his secret agent for Rifky Hilmayanto. So i was looking for him actually. Hahahaa. Farza was so gentle to me. He was so kind. Hmm i'm really shy to say this one. But i think that he looked so good that time. Then he asked us to take photo together. So we did it!! :)
The photo above might be the sign. With all the magical things, i am in a relationship with Farza Faremi. I am hoping that we could get along well capt :) Moreover, if i won't go there, i never met Rifki Hilmayanto, my stupid-sengkle-silly bestfriend who is always patient enough to listen all my stories and crunchy jokes. So, Malang, Mei 2009 would be my best moment last year. Friends forever!! ^^
PS.: We suprisingly won the 3rd prize!! Alhamdulillah bgt. Bener2 sujud syukur..
