Unforgettable experience!!! Let's check it out!


Graduation party


Hi, welcome back to my blog. If I want to share this story about my very special experience. Let's check it out !!!

Unforgettable memories for me were during my graduation party last year. We celebrated the graduation party in the city of Yogyakarta. So precisely in 2018 ago, I graduated from school. And at that time my friends and I decided to celebrate our graduation party. So we decided to went to Yogyakarta.





At that time the trip we took was about 20 hours. The journey is quite a long, right? 
At that during our trip no one was sleepy. So that time we continued to sing and dance together. So that our bus feels very crowded and fun. We danced and sang together during the trip so that it didn't feel how long the journey to the city of Yogyakarta was. After that we arrived in Yogyakarta around 1:00 a.m., we were directed to check in to the hotel. We are very tired but still happy.

The next day we did some fun activities too. At that time we went to Borobudur Temple. The place is nice and very crowded. We do many activities, and also took photos. 







Not feel the time goes fast, finally, we have to go back to the hotel for the graduation party. After arriving at the hotel we rushed to take a shower, then make-up, and wear dresses. At that time our dress code was black. We attend various events. My feelings at that time were happy and sad, happy because I had graduated, but sad because I had to part.



 After the peak night passed, my friends and I decided to take a walk around the Malioboro area. We walked together laughing. We also don't forget to take photos. we walked until we forgot that at 3:00 a.m. finally at that time we decided to go back to the hotel because we would check out the hotel around 6.30.am. It was around 7:00 a.m. we had breakfast, then after breakfast, we prepared to visit other places.




We headed for " Breksi Cliff". There is a beautiful view there. We look at the view from the height of the cliff. After that our next trip, visiting the former volcanic eruption area. We headed for that place in a Jep. When riding a Jeep is very fun, because the terrain is an uphill and rocky road, it is very adrenaline-testing. We screamed in terror but still laughed. After arriving two things that I saw in that place. Objects that have been destroyed, due to molten lava, the bones of a half-burnt, to the places of refuge at that time.




Around 3:00 p.m. we finished our tour. Then we went to visit the gift shop. After buying some souvenirs, we went home.
And the trip home is also very pleasant. At that time we also danced, sang, laughed together. Until finally we arrived in the city of Bekasi.


This is a little story about my unforgettable experience.
Immediately I can only feel homesick, because we have separated many times, and moved to other places and even those outside JABODETABEK.

People and Place


Holaaa .... Welcome back to my blog.

Housing is important and has become a human need. Everyone must have a dream of their own place to live. Not just a house, but the surrounding area, and environmental factors are certainly one of the points that must be considered.

Now me and my family live in the city of East Bekasi. The reason why we stay here is because my father's workplace is near from the city of East Bekasi. In addition, the city of Bekasi is also quite developed, access to schools has been facilitated, and the city is already quite crowded. And another thing make me think to leave East Bekasi city cause, I feel that the level of racism in the city of East Bekasi is quite high. Therefore, after my siblings and I graduated from college, my family and I planned to return to my parents' hometown in Manggarai, Flores, East Nusa Tenggara.

Manggarai Regency is a regency on Flores Island, East Nusa Tenggara Province, Indonesia. The district capital is Ruteng. Its area is 7,136.4 km².
The province has a total area of 47,245.82 km2. Manggarai Regency is divided into several regions, namely Manggarai Regency, West Manggarai Regency, and East Manggarai Regency.
A main part of the economic activity in the province is subsistence agriculture. Important local crops include corn and some smallholder plantation crops such as coffee. In some places, the lontar palm (Borassus flabellifer) dominates local agricultural activities and is a very important part of the local economy.
In these areas, the lontar palm provides timber and that thing as well as food in the form of fruits, and palm sugar which is obtained by tapping the fruit stems. The sugary sap can be used to make alcoholic drinks.
In otherp  the sugar palm (Arenga pinnata) has a useful role in the local economy. The degree of mechanisation in agriculture is low. Large animals (buffaloes, horses) are widely used throughout the province.

In environmentale conditions this place is still beautiful, the air is also still fresh, besides that, many beaches, and forests that have'nt been polluted. Rarely traffic jams, little air pollution, clean water sources are also plenty, fertile soil suitable for growing lots of vegetables.
Manggarai Regency is known for its agriculture, among others: coffee, cloves, vanilla, chocolate, and many others.
One well-known culture is the Caci dance. This dance is usually performed when there will be a reception.

In Manggarai, Flores we highly uphold harmony, mutual respect between religious communities, and therefore disputes rarely occur. Most of the population of Manggarai Regency is Christian with 94.16%, which means Catholic 93.30% and Christian Protestant 0.86%. The rest is adhering to Islam 5.73%, and Hindu 0.11%. Most of the people here work as farmers, anothers are fishermen, and also ia breeder.They often consume corn as a staple food instead of rice, in the dry season.The language used by the people here is different, but almost similar. This is because, Manggarai is divided into several regions.They also have a traditional ceremony called "Hang Woja". This is a thanksgiving ceremony for the blessings given by God. This event is usually held once a year, at the end of the year.





About human migration, I think there are still not too many people migration to Manggarai city. Maybe because of some things, such as technology, and insufficient internet networks. This city is also far different from the city of East Bekasi. Even so, I think this city has developed enough in several things, especially agriculture.

Reflections


Hi all how are you ???
I hope y'all are well. After a long holiday at the end of the second semester, this time I started to write my first blog in this early semester. I would like to share a little story  while I  studying at UKI.
Let's check it out!

I've been studying for a year at UKI. The first semester I enjoyed it enough. Because in this semester the material provided by the lecturers is not too complicated. I think in this semester is the beginning of ourself, as a college student. And in this semester I think that  is more simple and easier than school because of a lot of free time.

Therefore I decided to take some extracurricular, to fill my free time. Some of the activities that I participated in were, UKM Badminton, I also participated as a committee in the KAKI theater event (UKI), besides that I also became a member of EEDSA.

Many activities that I did while I was a member of EEDSA. Starting from raising funds, making events, conducting seminars, attending EED Gathering, and Exhibition, and Service Learning.

Until thes semester, when I just felt like a "this a real college student". Because it was'nt just an assignment, I also had to do other activities outside of class hours.

Then I must divide my time correctly. In addition, I am also more ready to advance to the semester, so the material provided will be more complicated. But I am happy because I have gotten many things so far. I learned a lot of things that I had never done before in school.

As I am now used to writing blogs, besides that I am also asked to make interesting presentations through Powerpoint and Powtoon, I also feel the Blended Learning method of learning using Edmodo, Team, Google Class. Another thing I learned was how to write Essays that are good and right.

In the second semester it was also very memorable because my friends and I had the opportunity to interview several religious leaders. We exchanged ideas, and looked from a different perspective, and looked very memorable because their core must be united and live in harmony in accordance with their teachings.

Many things I went through while studying at UKI, I am grateful that I am now in the third semester, and now I have begun to enjoy every activity, assignments given.

And below are some photos for some of the activities that I have done during my one year study at UKI.

I hink that's enough for today. Thanks, see ya !!!
