Journey to Cangar


 

First of all, I just want to say that I feel so Sorry if I haven't post any articles on this month. Then I ' ll tell you about the why I couldn’t post any articles this month. Actually I have so many activites and project so that I can't post an article daily. Four days earlier, I have difficult day, a day with full of lecture activity, organization committe meeting, facilitator meeting, department's event, strategic studies and advocacy, bla blaa blaaa blaaaa, etc. and truthfully, that's makes me feel so booored. 

Sometimes, I think that it would be better if I take some rest. Something that more exciting than study on campus or just stay at home and keep in touch with my laptop. Maybe move away from here for a while will be the greatest idea. So, three days ago (Friday), my friends suggest me to take a trip to another city. They give me two options. First option, they suggest me to go to Taman Lawang (we can called it a dead city just like a Bone County in Grand Theft Auto) or the second option is Cangar, Mojokerto. It was a wide city where a wide range of animals and insects live in, just like San Isabel National Forest in Colorado, USA. On Saturday, We have decided to 'Move Out' from here, and we pick the second option, a forest  trip to Cangar.

On Sunday 06.00 AM, I have well prepared to go to Cangar with eight of my friends, Rizal, Umar, Daniar, Rizki, Novi, Rizka, Irma, and Anisa. We used 5 motorcycle, each motorcycle consist of two persons except Daniar’s. Actually he was with Maharah, but because of some reasons, she couldn’t participate. 07.00 we regroup our contingent in the gas station to refuel and then started our journey. 

We stopped several times on the way to Cangar, we stopped once in Malang to have some breakfast, twice in Batu to refuel our tank and because of Rizki and Rizka falling down from their motorcycle and we stopped once in Selecta to have Dhuhur pray at the Jami’ Baiturrahman mosque. I tell you about a little story when I was at the mosque, Jami’ Baiturrahman was not so great, it had medium size for a mosque. But that mosque had everything inside and trust me, the carpet smelling so good #haha.





After a hour, on 13.20 we've got safely at Cangar, precisely in the Tahura Park. In that place we explore the forest to searched for fern specimen, take some photos, and stay for a while to have a lunch. After we found what we wants, we head back to Surabaya on 15.15. But before we head back to Surabaya, we stopped at the Mojosari Agro Lestari hotel to survey for internship that will be held next month.

Deep in the forest

I have so much laughter yesterday and I feel so happy. Moreover, When I realize that the next day (today) is a holiday too, I feel more excited. Thus, I have 4 days of from my daily activity on my campus. What a miracle, it was a long holiday in the middle of the busy month. It seems that the Harvest Goddess on Harvest Moon game blessing me this week.

 After all, Thank you and see you next time xD 


I've Got Two Rewards in PP LKMM !!


 
With my friends from chemistry department

3 Weeks ago I have some training program called PP LKMM. Which it was the one of five training program in my campus. My campus, ITS have 5 training progams which conducted sequentially and all of them have related. They are LKMM Pra-TD, LKMM TD, PP LKMM, LKMM TM and LKMM TL. Each training program have a difficult selection and If I don't pass the first training program then I would not be able to continue to the next training program. For the example, if I don't pass LKMM Pra-TD then I couldn't participate LKMM TD. I have to wait until the next year to participate the same training programs.


Training program which I have attended a few weeks ago is PP LKMM or just called it PP. It have 3 levels of selection. They are administration selection, writing test selection and interview selection. Luckily, I have passed all of the selection and can participated that training program. I feel lucky because of many of my competitors are an extraordinary person. Actually, PP is a training program which used to create a training guide (trainer). So many people who wanted to be a trainer, but the quote is limited. My faculty just choose 33 of the hundreds of existing registries. 


During the 3 days of training, I met with incredible persons and all of them are very active in the discussion. First time I was in discussion session, I feel awkward cause I think that all of them (another participant) seemed full preparation for this training. But eventually, I could adapting with them (perhaps because I'm a hyperactive person #hoho).

 
That's me in the one of LKMM's interview


I’m a strange person, or just use ‘unique’ word to look more polite #haha. Cause I could change my personality whenever I want. When I felt that I have adapted with peoples around me. I have another target beside to pass this training program, I want to give all what I have, increase my effort, and running out all of my energy. Even many of my competitors was an extraordinary person, multilanguage person, smart person or something like that #hahaha. Who cares? I just have to do my best, right? I don't have to be the winner, but I have to do everything correctly and perfectly. I consider to being the second but I don’t want to being the wrong. 


On the last day of the training, I succeded gain 2 of 3 existing reward. As the most excited participant and the most active participant (there are double winner for this category, Me and my friend from physic department, Betabayu Santika). Another reward was gained by Almira as the most good-looking participant. That’s not bad, and I’m proud of my struggle during 3 days in PP LKMM. Oh I almost forgot, I have streak my own record, as the most active participant during 2 years training period in my faculty and my department (in LKMM Pra-TD, LKMM TD, and PP LKMM).
