Nothing can describe my KKN life . It was once in a lifetime experience and yeaaah, I was happy being a part of it . Even though, there were lots of slacks and problems between each personnel, but, the essence of KKN and the chemistry of living together for almost 2 months absolutely left mark on the journey of my life . It wasn't only just a learning method, but it also helped creating a better me in the future . What can I say? Such a precious and one of the greatest moments of my college life~ At least, I have more than enough of memorable stories to tell to my kids someday, like my mom always told me before about her amazing KKN life :) Thank God!
Here it is, a short memoir that I made during my days in KKN . Fyi, I was living in TELUK KOMBAL, PEMENANG BARAT, WEST NUSA TENGGARA . It was located in the eastern of Bali and there were many tourism spots especially beautiful beaches which offered not only the adorable panoramas but also the hidden secret of tranquility life.. Enjoy..
A TAPED MEMOIR OF TELUK KOMBAL
It's full of hopes, it's full of dreams
It's far from strange, it's one of a kind
as far as the eyes can see..
Call me pathetic,
I let you "boo" at me,
One thing should be confessed,
this far place echoes a sound of family,
and hard work,
and friendship,
and love..
Little deeper I see,
little deeper I feel,
yet, speechlessly it goes out
shame on me if I'm not telling...
that my Teluk Kombal is whispering..
Rainbow may disappear,
after the sun stops portraying
to the raindrops that falling
Shout out to the butterflies, who fly and fly,
far away to the sky
Look for once, but please not a glance..
that my Teluk Kombal records the same
Yes, it's full of hopes,
yes it's full of dreams
Definitely far from strange,
Infinitely one of a kind..
my Teluk Kombal says "Hi" and the story will never END

I was shocked when my mother called me two days ago .
It was not because she called me when I was so busy copied a lot of practical reports in a copy center near my campus with my friends, but, because she told me a very sad news .
She said that my grand mother from my dad side had just passed away .
I couldn't hide my tears .
My friends then helped me got another shift to replace my lab's activity at that moment .
Because I needed to go home as soon as possible .
So, after finishing my lab activity, I went to my home in a flash .
My family had gathered in terrace to welcome me .
My parents especially my dad hugged me tight and asked me to get ready to go to Randublatung, Blora, my dad's hometown and also the place my grandma stayed .
I found an awkward silence inside the car .
Everyone was busy in their own cell phones .
Maybe tried to call any other friends and relatives outside the town .
After we reached the place, many people had been gathered and prayed near the bed my grandma placed .
I sobbed all of a sudden as I approached the bed .
I just starred at my grandma's face .
Couldn't say anything .
I thought I haven't do the right thing that made her proud yet .
Like, the thing she always asked these recent years every time we met : "Now I try to accept you for what you believe . I just wanna see you graduate and get a great job in a big company and attend your wedding, honey . But first, when will you introduce your special friend to me? Hehehe.." T____________________T
Bye bye Grandma, I'll always love you~ ♥♥♥
her last hug.. Aug'12
Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same that it ever was. There is absolute unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
I am but waiting for you. For an interval. Somewhere. Very near. Just around the corner.
I've been watching a movie called : BEAUTY & THE BRIEFCASE, starred by the one and only Lizzy McGuire's Hilary Duff, and noticed that some of her lines quite resembled me .
So, Lane Daniels (her character) said :
Love just doesn't happen to girls like me, girls who build their hopes on an intricate web of day dreams. The truth is that everyone has issues and maybe building up a fake, perfect man in my mind was my biggest issue of all. I've been walking around with the ghost of my magic man. He's been haunting me, keeping me from a world of opportunities that were right in front of me...
There's no such thing as perfection. Love is for people who are realistic and smart enough to open up their heart and minds and to realize that a real relationship is the ultimate fantasy.
I haven't found that relationship yet, but I've shaken up the shadow of my magic man and I'm finding myself. I think that's a pretty good start!
Hmm, I guess I must try to not thinking too much about this "magic man" of myself (I know who he is) . And let's face the reality :\
Okay .
Fighting .
Yep .
But by the way, there's more important thing I should face first . That's my MID-TERM EXAM STARTING ON MONDAY!!!
Hell .
Yeah .
Demmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm T___________________T
".. if you wear this, people may think you are PERFECT!" [one of the memorable things in 2012]
I have ever made a promise to someone, if I wore this tees I would share the pictures to that person . I waited for that person to do something like what that person had promised . But unfortunately, until I posted these pics here and there, that person never came up again . Am I wrong trying to keep in touch with that person??! T_T

Here are some quotes about 'perfection' :
"A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away." -- Antoine de Saint
"Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses." -- Ann Landers
"It is through art, and through art only, that we can realise our perfection." -- Oscar Wilde
"Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty, and persistence." -- Colin Powell
"Practice means to perform, over and over again in the face of all obstacles, some act of vision, of faith, of desire. Practice is a means of inviting the perfection desired." -- Martha Graham
"I wasn't expecting perfection any more, just hoping for an occasional inspiration." -- Neil Diamond
