Chemistry Building

Jadi kalo biasanya ada case building di debate. Di hari ini, kami diberikan serangkaian kegiatan yang bertujuan untuk membangun chemistry kelompoknya. Pagi harinya kami berkunjung ke Thamasat University di Thailand (If i’m not mistaken, it’s the second oldest university in Thailand after Chulalongkorn University). We had a really wonderful day in here.  Untuk murid SMA, we had cooking class in the morning. Kami dituntun ke sebuah tempat di ruang terbuka tapi tenang ada atapnya dan lumayan sejuk di sini, karena dekat dengan sungai Chao Praya dan ada banyak pohon. Kami akan memasak salah satu masakan Thailand yang levelnya easy yaitu Kai Jeow. Kai Jeow ini hampir sama persis dengan telor dadarnya kita. Kami dikasih tantangan untuk memasak Kai Jeow terbaik per team. Alhasil, walaupun tim aku enggak mendapatkan juara di sini, tetapi kami merasakan kerja sama yang cukup baik dalam membuat telor dadar.
Cooking Class

Banyak tim yang improvisasi sendiri dalam pembuatan Kai Jeow ini contohnya ada yang menggabungkan Kai Jeow dengan nasi goreng, ada juga yang memasak nasi goreng dulu lalu menggulungnya di dalam Kai Jeow. Satu hal yang terasa banget ketika masak ini personally adalah lapar. Rasanya udah pengen nyicipin sedikit, tapi engga enak sama yang lain. Maklumlah harus menjaga image Indonesia. 

Team B while cooking

Meja yang awalnya rapih banget, jadi berantakan sana sini, gara-gara ada yang motong daun pisang untuk dijadikan tempat Kai Jeow, trus ada yang ngiris-ngiris bawang sampe tumpeh-tumpeh (ga sih, ini agak lebay aja). 
we call this 'handsome pose'
Setelah selesai, kami berjalan-jalan di tepi sungai dan tentunya yang tak lupa adalah berfoto. Kegiatan berfoto bersama ini juga dapat mempererat hubungan lho ;). 

Selanjutnya kami ada kelas musik dan tari. Di kelas tari, kami belajar sebuah tarian yang cukup simple dan mudah untuk dilakukan kecuali bagian lentikan jarinya hehehe. Kami diberikan sebuah kain yang biasanya digunakan orang-orang Thailand saat menari. Gerakannya mostly hanya lenggok ke kanan dan ke kiri.
love the fabric's pattern and color <3 

Di kelas musik, kami dibagi menjadi beberapa kelompok untuk belajar instrumen musik yang berbeda-beda. Satu hal yang aku sadari itu adalah ternyata kebanyakan dari alat musik tradisional di hampir seluruh dunia memiliki kesamaan alias mirip. 
Thailand, Japan, Indonesia, and Vietnam |i'm good in playing this music instrument lho guys ^^
Meninggalkan Thamasat University, kami bergerak menuju Mah Boon Krong (MBK) yang merupakan pusat perbelanjaan terutama untuk souvenir Thailand. Jadi aku pikir kami bakal ada sesi shopping ternyata aku salah. Semua itu hanyalah khayalanku, di tempat ini kami diberikan misi untuk membeli sebuah barang paling kecil yang harganya ga boleh lebih dari 100 Bath dan berfoto dengan panitia sebanyak-banyaknya. MBK ini gede banget guys ada 6 lantai dan para panitianya berpencar, sehingga ya kalau ketemu foto, kalau misalnya ga ketemu berarti yaudah belum lucky aja. Hahaha. The problem was we only had an hour to do this thing, i was only questioning, ‘will i get time to buy some souvenirs?’ Jadi kami turun naik di gedung ini selama hampir satu jam. Beruntungnya, aku memiliki waktu untuk membeli beberapa barang untuk dijadikan oleh-oleh.

Setelahnya kami makan di sebuah chineses seafood restaurant dan pulang ke hotel. It’s a tiring day and also amazing day that full of new experiences for me and for other participants.

Family in Sampoerna Academy Boarding School - House

Gambar
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...
