Preparation Before Going to Thailand

Asia Youth Leaders merupakan program yang dirancang oleh AEON 1% Club Fondation untuk meningkatkan kepedulian generasi muda terhadap isu-isu lingkungan.  Acara ini diikuti oleh 6 negara yaitu Jepang, Malaysia, China, Thailand, Vietnam, dan Indonesia.  Acara ini merupakan annual event yang tempat penyelenggaraan berbeda-beda setiap tahun seperti tahun lalu itu di China, sedangkan tahun ini di Thailand. Setiap negara mengirimkan perwakilan untuk tingkat SMA dan tingkat kuliah. Acara ini dibiayai penuh oleh AEON 1% Club Fondation so you don’t have to worry about the budget ( i do really recommend this program). Di Indonesia, AEON 1% Club Fondation bekerja sama dengan Kemendikbud untuk merekrut dan menyeleksi siswa SMA dan mahasiswa. Sehubung aku merupakan murid SMA, maka aku akan sedikit menjelaskan tentang seleksi untuk yang tingkat SMA.

Seleksi pertama adalah mengirimkan CV (Curriculum Vitae) masing-masing kandidat beserta essay yang saat itu temanya adalah ‘Water Pollution Issued in Indonesia’ ke email kemendikbud. Setelah dari seleksi pertama, terpilih 30 peserta terbaik untuk seleksi tahap 2 untuk mengirimkan berkas-berkas yang diminta seperti parental permission, health concern,dan personal information. Pada tahap ini, yang akan mnyeleksi adalah dari pihak AEON Indonesia. 12 orang akan terpilih untuk tes wawancara melalui telepon dengan AEON Indonesia.  Wawancaranya tidak terlalu sulit karena ia menanyakan tentang isi essay yang telah kita buat serta small conversations untuk mengetahui tingkat penguasaan bahasa inggris kandidat. Perlu diingat bahwa wawancara ini full english. Aku saranin selama wawancara untuk santai, percaya diri dan jangan gugup.

Selang seminggu dari wawancara tersebut, siswa yang terpilih akan dihubungi melalui telepon. Oiya, kalau bisa usahakan kalian sudah punya passpor sebelum mendaftar di program ini biar enak kalau terpilih gausah ribet mikirin buat passpor . Terpilihlah 10 siswa SMA yaitu Irene, Falya, Rayyan, Faruqi, Yusuf, Hakim, Farid, Vania, dan aku Jihan untuk mengikuti Asia Youth Leaders 2016 di Bangkok, Thailand.

Family in Sampoerna Academy Boarding School - House

Living in Boarding school was the best thing in my life. This is the first thing that makes me really hard to move on. I am used to think why some people cannot move on from his/her past then now I realize the reason are there are so much lovely memories and people you truly love. I never feel belong to school that much until I found Sampoerna Academy Boarding School.  my graduation with Eagle <3 my inauguration singing 'Lean on Me' by Glee I inaugurated 4 years ago. I graduated last year. It almost a year for me to live in another path another school another places another friend another new things. My case is that none from my batch goes to same university as me. At the very first, I really miss my situation in boarding school. In previous school there are nine houses where each person belongs to one house. My house is Eagle. I am grateful to be part of them that I consider the best house amongst the others (so housist sorry). In my opinion, we have great b...

Love and To be Loved in Sampoerna - My Social Class

Have you ever felt to be the best in the class in terms of academic achievements? Have you ever felt to win over your classmates in terms of academic score? Have you ever felt scared of helping them out so they can go beyond your score?  Let us be honest to our feelings. I am sure that there are some people who have that kind of thought. Ambition is human nature as in realist theory, it tells us that states have principle called ‘statism’ if it is applied to human in my opinion it will be defined as human thinks themselves as the main actor of this life so they need to do everything in order to achieve their personal interests. Even though this kind of theory will not be completely appeared so in nowadays human but it still exists. For the first and second questions, I think it is really fine to answer ‘yes’ but it is a big ‘no’ for the third question. I am the kind of person who used to think ‘yes’ for all the above questions until high school. when I was 10th grader...

“THE PARADOX OF UNPLANNED” - Book review: World Changers: 25 Entrepreneurs Who Changed Business as We Knew It by John A. Byrne

A compact 360 pages length book that contain 25 amazing rollercoaster story behind the greatest of the great entrepreneurs in the worlds. I read this book because I never completely forget my dream to be a business woman in the future since elementary school. This book indeed gives me new knowledge and horizon because out of these 25 entrepreneurs, I only acknowledge half of them hehe. Sometimes, in the process of learning makes us know more thing we do not know about.  Talking about the paradox of unplanned, I am learning in school and in XLFL that it is really important to set goals and plan how to get there. Yet, it is very intriguing while reading this book, majority of the entrepreneurs never plan to grow and to be this big as they are now, and my question “why they get to place that they do not plan to? And is that true it just happens naturally?”. Anyway, that is just my biggest thought and question after reading this book. If anybody want to give their opinions about...
