When I Homesick

aku..

aku..

Hmmm.. susah ngomongnya, aku homesick saat ini, rasanya hatiku sepi banget, aku kangen kehangatan rumah, aku kangen gurauanku bersama adek-adekku. Kangen saat aku marah-marah ngajari adek-adek les. kangen curhat-curhatan sama mama sama papa. Kangen ngobrol sama anak yang kos di rumah sampai dini hari, kangen nongkrong bareng temen-temen ku di Illy, kangen pacaran sama pacarku. 

Pokoknya intinya aku kangen.

Aku kangen Indonesia, kangen masakan mama, pengen ketemu mama, papa, ryan, gigih, samuel, itax, mega, egie, adek-adek les, temen-temen fapet, keluarga besar tercinta. 

Kangen nyapu halaman rumah, masak, nyiapin minum kopi buat tukang di rumahku, kangen tidur di kasurku, mandi di rumah.

Kangen...

I miss my home. 

Aku g tahu, kenapa hari ini aku melow, tetapi sebenarnya aku udah melow dari kemarin sih, dan aku ga ngerti penyebanya.

Tapi, setelah aku berfikir... rasanya aku HOMESICK.

Setelah berjuang menuntut ilmu selama 322 hari alias 10 bulan 7 hari, finally i give up.. i'm HOMESICK now.

Baru kali ini merasakan benar-benar kangen banget sama rumah, pokoknya kangen.

Itu foto saat papaku ulang tahun, kita makan bareng. Saat itu yang masak mama sama aku.

Kapan ya aku bisa pulang ke Indonesia.

Aku harap secepatnya. Semoga penelitianku ini cepat kelar, thesisku juga cepat selesai, aku butuh semangat baru biar aku terus semangat buat berjuang di sini demi menyelesaikan studiku.

Well.... Seorang Dhika, yang dulu waktu SMA dapat panggilan "LEMOT" (karen aku agak ga nyambungan sih, susah nangkepnya, haha), kok bisa gitu ke Taiwan, ngelanjutin studi, S2 lagi. Animal Science lagi.. hmm.. itu luar biasa. Tidak pernah aku bayangkan, saat aku SD, SMP, maupun SMA. Soalnya kalo aku pikir-pikir, aku ini tidak terlalu pintar, nilai juga biasa-biasa, yah, karena aku adalah orang yang beruntung. Terimakasih Tuhan :).

Kata orang-orang, orang pintar itu kalah sama orang beruntung. Aku bersyukur karena aku udah jadi orang yang beruntung. hehe..

O, iya balik lagi ke homesick tadi.  Itu tadi cerita cuma intermeso doank.

Bagi teman-teman semua yang lagi ngerasain homesick Sabar teman-teman, kamu tidak sendiri, soalnya aku juga lagi homesick saat ini, gpp nikmati saja homesick itu, Homesick adalah suatu rasa yang sesuatu banget. #asek, bahasaku kaya syahrini aja.

O, iya, aku juga mau ngucapin selamat buat adekku yang pertama, yang cool abis - Ryan Chendyriawan.

Selamat Anda sudah mendapat gelar Bachelor Technic alias ST. Prok .. prok .. aku bangga sama kamu dek. Semoga kita bisa wisudaan bareng ya.

Congrats for your achievement to get Bachelor Technic Degree. Semoga langsung mendapatkan pekerjaan yang membuat kamu tambah makmur.

Sukses trus ya dek.

Terakhir dalam tulisanku adalah.

When I'm homesick, i remember world, that is KEEP FIGHTING, GO AHEAD. Success just 5 cm in front your eyes. Reach it. Just need 1 step and u'll finish it. And it's perfect.

Semangat ya, teman-teman yang merasakan hal yang sama dengan aku, kangen pulang, kangen sama Indonesia, masakan mama. Terus berjuang di tempat kalian masing-masing. Cepat pulang ya, Ibu pertiwi merindukan kita.

Kita bangun Indonesia jadi lebih baik.

Hi all...
Long time no see. Thank you if you have time to read my blog. Today i will share about my experience.
Now, i still in my laboratory do some work and study for my final exam next two weeks.
Okay.. lets go back today early morning.
I'm still in my lovely university, that is National Pingtung University of Science and Technology. This morning i had class SWECA, i guess you know guys, about the meaning of SWECA, because i already told in my previous blog. I had this class at 8.10, but this morning i was late to attended this class... Fortunately, my teachers not angry, but i didn't how his filling inside his heart. Today i studied about flow of writing summary. What the content about this course?hmm.. i don't know.. because i didn't get the point.. haha.. parah ^^.
I still wondering, how come very difficult to learn English? What should I do? But i must try... try and try, until i felt my ability is enough. ok.. lets continue to another activity. After class dismissed, i went to OISA, OISA is Office International Students Affairs in my campus. In this place i asked to the officer about my wallet card and my photo for extend my ARC to live in Taiwan. Due to, two days ago i felt that i lost my wallet card, and then i tried to remembered and i think, i left my wallet card in OISA, and finally, i found it. Happy :).
Inside of that have many important card, like Taiwan insurance card, working permit, Indonesian driver license, and so on. I'm lucky because i found it. As you know, i think Taiwan is better than Indonesia, in that case attitude, in my university, if i met Taiwanese, they always polite, helpful, orderly, and the most important they are very honest. Be grateful to God that i'm here now. I study many things in here. But the best country in my life is Indonesia, because in that place i was born, grow up, learn many things about life, the culture is very wonderful, the food make me always miss the smell and taste.. Indonesian food is very delicious.. especially the food made by my lovely mom.. hehe.. Unfortunately, Indonesian people not orderly yet, i think their nationalism must improve more and more.. to make people better than before.
Ok.. lets move to my activity today.. after i found my wallet card, i went to my lab and study for SWECA mod exam. The question is not to difficult, bur the answer.. is difficult.. haha.
It's ok i already finished, i must practice more and more to get high score in Final exam, because my midterm score was 50. I'm shy, my score is lower than my friend Taiwanese... huh... whereas i'm international student in here... huh... i must improve my English ability. Keep fighting dhika.. Do the best, God take the rest.
After i finished my exam, i went to cafeteria with my friend to bought lunch. Then, i had meeting with my SWECA TA (teaching assistant) to discuss my assignment that i submitted last Friday. In the assignment i just got 70, but i really be grateful to my God, because i got this score, due to I encouraged to learn English more. The last activity, before i write this blog was i went back to my lab, and tried to made this story.

My wise word today is One day, you'll be a just memory for some people. Do your best to be a good one.

Mahasiswa Galau #1

Sekarang jam menunjukkan pukul 3:29 pm waktu Taiwan. 

Gue curhat dulu ya....

Gue lagi galau nih, di kampus gue mata kuliah seminar itu bagaikan momok yang menakutkan. Tiap mahasiswa harus persentasi min 25 menit, and loe ngerti slide nya itu pasti lebih dari 35, emang sih semester kemarin gue udah pernah ambil ni mata kuliah, tapi tetep aja masih bingung.

Beda banget sama di Indonesia, dulu waktu gue ujian skripsi aja cma dikasih waktu 10-15 menit buat presentsi hasil penelitian q, jadi slide nya sekitar 12-15 slide lah dan pake bahasa indonesia. Lha di sini mesti 2x lipatnya.

Mana gue itu susah banget buat menghafal, ngomong di depan umum, mana skrg pake bahasa inggris.. haduhh rasa nya mau mati aja... semester kemarin ak udah sempet presentasi ya pake bahasa inggris jga.. tpi untungnya dosen nya baik semester kemarin, tidak terlalu neko-neko. Lah yang semester ini... ampun dah... banyak banget perturannya, g boleh show on slide2 presentasinya harus show off. Yang penting isi nya bkan penampilannya. Dan itu bukan gue banget... Gue kan suka hal-hal yang lucu2 gitu....

O, iya.. seminar gue masih agak lama sih 17 Mei, masih ada 2 bulan buat nyelesaiin.. tapi bingungnya udah mlai dari sekarang..  pengen nyicil tapi apa yg dicicil..

Hmmm...

Di Taiwan ini banyak banget hal yang harus gue kerjain, meskipun semuanya serasa susah banget... khususnya bidang akademik nih...

Mana otak gue jga pas-pas an.. Jadi kalo baca buku atau jurnal kelamaan bukannya tambah pinter, tambah puyeng.. maklum lah ya.. dlu SMA anak IPS bukan IPA.. mau masuk IPA aja banyak bgt cobaannya.. haha.

Dan skrg gue lagi kuliah s2 dan jurusan gue sekarang ini IPA banget.. mana ak ada di lab nutrition physiology.. hadehh rasanya pengen gantung diri... sumpah, susah banget.. otak gua ga nutut bok... 

Masak dari tadi baca aja g ada satupun yg masuk di kepala. Gusti nyuwun tolong... errrrr.....

akhirnya dari pada aku puyeng-puyeng g jelas gini mending gue curcol di blog aje, mana lihat temen lab gue pada sibuk sendiri2 (sibuk tidur #glodak, sibuk maen game, tapi ada juga yg sibuk baca jurnal), ket: padahal biasanya aku juga tidur gaya banget pake acara ngomongin orang.. haha. Temen lab q semuanya orang Taiwan... jadi susah juga ngobrol sama mereka.. mana Bahasa Inggris gue, kok ky nya g ningkat2 gitu dari awal gue berangkat... gue juga bingung, gmn sih cara belajar bahasa Inggris ini, biar cas cis cus ces cos... #galau gua... semakin gue belajar semakin gue g bisa.. sadappp, nah lho.. bingung kan...

 ak kasih deh foto lab gue.. tapi luarnya doank ya... dalemnya kapan-kapan.. 

Nah sekarang bingung lagi gue... apa yg mau gue cerita in ya....

hmmmm.

mohon yang ahli immunology, trus ahli bahasa inggris, trus ahli menulis, ahli tentang nutrisi fisiologi hewan.. kasih gue masukan donk.. yang lainnya kalo pengen ngasih masukan juga gpp, ngarep nih.. apa yg harus gue kerjain pertama...

O, iya,, belum ak kasih tau ya.. ak nih lagi belajar ilmu perhewanan... ilmu perhewanan dan kehewanan aje ya.. susahnya minta ampun. Padahal waktu aku SMA dlu g ada di pikiran sedikitpun aku bakalan belajar ilmu yang beginian.. soalnya setelah aku masuk IPS yang gaul itu, gue seneng banget ama akuntansi, tapi kok ya wktu nyoba SPMB masuk akuntansi kok ya g keterima.. nasib.. nasib... nyasarnya ke ilmu kehewanan.. ini masuk s2 nyasar lagi.. ini sebener e nyasar apa sudah kadung tersesat ya.. gue juga bingung...

I just can say surrender to my God... but, everything that happened in my life i believe He always guide me and lead me.. but sometimes.. i feel desperate, because i must do everything but my ability so so.. (#maaf kalo bahas inggris gua ancur...). So far.. Thanks for my God because i'm here right now.. (tapi ngeluh dikit gpp lah ya.. daripada puyeng g jelas. haha)

oke... see you di curcol an gue selanjutnya ya...
