Points of Life

Hello May!

4 Days before Ramadhan 1439 H. May Allah bless us and our family to be on the right track, to be always healthy, refrained from any hardships and always be better day by day.

Been a long time not to write a post. (and yeah, I just edit it on May, wkwk)

Just want to tell you all, that I am currently no longer working with DPR. Alhamdulillah, on February I got accepted in ASEAN Secretariat. After a heartbreaking announcement in November 2017 (I failed in Kemlu's test), went back to Halsel on December 2017, lost of my Grandpa, Uncle and Cousin in January 2018, my father got a recurrent stroke in the same month (just one day before the accident happened), finally, I am here. After I rejected a TO position in 2013, the opportunity came again to me. Alhamdulillahirabbilalamin.

Actually, choosing ASEC was kind a hard decision, since at the same time I got offered by one of the start up unicorns in Indonesia and a manager position in a foreign embassy with high salary. But still, I always know that this is the best decision, following my heart and my calling for now.

Hmm, at least, after one month being an asec staff, I feel so blessed. Eventhough, it is not always a bright and shine day, sometimes it is very hot or maybe rainy and even stormy. That's a work life! Luckily, my office now is just 30 mins away by Gojek, but I have to take a finger print, that's why, no more telat. Haha.

Last month, I got very ambitious in the first two weeks. I had my second 21k in Kuala Lumpur and another 10k in Jogjakarta. It was like I did holiday trips every week, even I planned to go to Bandung in the 3rd week. But then, I had to cancel my trip because my body asked me to do so. On that week, I also had two big meetings (first time) in ASEC, so had to prepare all the things and that made me feel no good after the event. My body demanded to rest and that's what I did on the weekend.

Actually, only on Saturday I went nowhere. On Sunday, I had a run training at GBK and went to Masjid Agung Al-Azhar for one of my friends' akad. Luckily (or coincidentally), I didn't meet with the previous person who I described in some posts ago, ahahaha. Yes, we are in the same circle with some friends and after we had no contact anymore, we never had a chance to meet each other. If God's will, on that day, I just can met him. But, God says no.

I pray to God for the incoming Ramadhan, hope that He is willing to introduce me to my partner in dunya and akhirat, amin.

I also pray for me, my family and all of creatures safety, healthy and security. These past days some security issues happened in Indonesia. Hopefully, no more victims by man-made and natural disasters anymore. Amin.

Operasi Abses Kelenjar Bartholini

Assalamu'alaikum wr. wb. Apa kabar kawan2? Semoga selalu dalam keadaan sehat wal afiat serta tetap semangat menjalani aktifitas. Apa kabar saya? Alhamdulillah, keadaan saya hari ini jauh lebih baik dari kemarin maupun beberapa hari yang lalu. Teman2 yang baca postingan saya sebelumnya mungkin telah mengetahui bahwa beberapa hari ke belakang saya menderita suatu penyakit yang membuat saya susah duduk, bangun dan berjalan. Sampai - sampai saya harus masuk UGD untuk disuntik obat penghilang rasa sakit di pantat saking tidak tahannya. Ternyata, setelah pulang dari UGD, obat penghilang rasa sakit itu hanya bertahan satu malam. Keesokan harinya, saya mengalami sakit yang sama. Susah duduk, bangun dan berjan. Terkadang, rasanya perih sekali, sampai-sampai saya menangis karena tidak dapat menahan sakitnya. Namun, karena sudah diberikan salep dan obat penghilang rasa sakit beberapa saat sakitnya mereda. Bahkan dua hari kemudian saya memberanikan diri untuk pergi ke Jurong Point...

6 day to Graduation Day

Salam.... Hey all, what's up? I've been had a great time since my last post about "skripsi". Apparently, I had to work so hard (and so fast) to revise my thesis. Alhamdulillah, I made it on time with satisfactory result :) whilst it was so "rempong" to make a hardcover and get the signatories... The result itself was not a straight A (it was so close, just 0,44 again to get A score), but than it's okay for me. Alhamdulillah :D Ok, so now I am waiting for my convocation day (graduation ceremonial) which will be held 6 days later. Well, I'm not quite enthusiastic about this graduation day, realizing that it is just a ceremonial phase and I have to do "make up", dressing, high-heels-ing, etc. But, I can't deny that I am so happy, trying my "toga" made me just want to cry, feels like this time just run so quick and now I am not an undergraduate student anymore... Yes, I do believe that graduation is not the end. It ju...

Canberra Day 1 #AvinainAussie

 Hi everyone, It's been ages I did not write here. Alhamdulillah, I got accepted at the ANU for PhD in International Relations at the Coral Bell School, College of Asia and Pacific. So grateful for this, I had my family OSHC covered by Bell School, tuition fee covered by HDR Fee Remit Scholarship and stipend provided by Feminist in International Relations scholarship administered by Bell School. Bismillahirrahmanirrahim for the years ahead. Yesterday, 13 February 2025 was my first day landed in Australia let alone Sydney and Canberra. Sydney international airport was not huge, I have to declare everything that listed as prohibited/dangerous items, in my case it was medicine (and honey). Alhamdulillah for the smooth yet very exhausted journey. I landed in Canberra airport on 11.35 noon and was picked up by Natasha, Kang Andri's daughter. She is super cool, an ANU undergrad studying actuarial (wow!). We went to Kebab shop to take lunch, I bought "small" snack pack which...
