" Yogyakarta.. I'm coming!!!!!!"
It was the first sentence that I said when I arrived in Adi Sucipto Airport-Yogyakarta. Waww..it was so amazing!!! This trip was very great!! You have to know that It was the second time for me to visit Yogyakarta since twelve years ago. I surprised because the athmosphere of Yogyakarta was different with the atmosphere when the first time I visited Yogyakarta. Although my parents came from Yogyakarta, but this was a fact that I seldom went to Yogyakarta for visiting my grandma and grandpa because of many reasons. So, in that opportunity, I went to Yogyakarta with all of members of my family by airplane. This was my first experience to go by plane. Apparently, went by plane was so complicated in registration. It needed a long time to finish that preparation in airport. The time to fly by plane was so short, but we spent many time to wait the other plane when we was transit in Soekarno Hatta Airport – Jakarta. I was bored. But it was a new interesting experience during I was alive. Hha

After I arrived in airport, I went to Bantul-Yogyakarta to live in my grandma and grandpa's house for 1 month until I have joined Insadha. I was very happy to be there. My grandma and grandpa toke care of me. I was became spoiled by them. But all of it made me be bored because my activities were sleeping, eating, taking a bath and something like that. They forbade me to work anything that could make me be tired.
Television was an important thing for me, but I couldn't find it in Bantul because it was destroyed by the quickearth. I only could hear the radio everyday. Can you imagine my bordon of my bad days?

One day, I could throw my bordon. It because there were some students of Sanata Dharma University to do their task (KKN) in Bantul for 1 month. They were eleven who lived in one of citizen's houses that was near by my grandpa house. Made the organic fertilizer, met with the young generation in Karang Taruna to share all of things that were needed by them to develop their village and also for the sake of their future, and tauch the children about their lessons in school regularly, these were the activities of the member's KKN that also be joined by me. They never forgot to invite me to do all of activities together with them. I was the youngest among them, but they appreciated me as they sister. They shared about the experiences and the knowledge that they had got during studied in Sanata Dharma University. Beside that, the best exciting experience in my life was I could met and chat lively with the foreign tourists from 12 different countries in this whole of earth. There are USA, Australia, India, China, Canada, South Korea, Republik Dominica, so on. All of them went to Yogyakarta to celebrate a High Mass in Ganjuran Church. Before it, they met the community of my granpa's village to share about the organic fertilizer and also knew the custom of Yogyakarta, including ate many traditional foods of Yogyakarta liked cemplon, getuk, etc. They said that they liked it very much, so delicious. I made a good friendship with one of them who came from USA. We change facebook's address one each other. It also the first experience I talked with foreign tourists. The first, I didn't believe that I could communicate with them well, but with my confidence, I could prove that I could do it. It like a dream became true, doesn't it?

Exciting trip is a part of my experiences that can not happen again as long as my life. My trip to Yogyakarta is full of many the first experience. The first experiences but they will be the best.
Yogyakarta.. I have found it all here!!
I'll miss my exciting trip,,

EWD 2009?
Iii waawww


It was the keyword of a great event that was very intersting to be joined. English Welcoming Days that were familiar to be listened with it's mention, that is EWD. It was an special event and an activity was also routin to be held for PBI'new students of Sanata Dharma University yearly that had good purposes, such as introduced all of things about PBI and made many friends one each other of PBI students. Wanna join us?? Welcome aboard. That was the theme of EWD this year.

Last week, i joined EWD in Wonogondang Camping Around for 2 days. But before i and all of my friends who had the same program study with me went to Wonogondang, we assembled in campus of Mrican at 7a.m with all of committees. We started it with do many things, such as introduction of activities in PBI that could be joined by us to develop our selves. We also checked all of final preparations that were needed in Wonogondang, not only important goods and made cooperation in tent's team, but also prepared some acts in each group that would be shown there, it were spirit shouting and a talent show that were a must in each group. I was very glad because i had eleven kind and friendly members in my group. We are group of nine that was lead by mbak pyta as our group leader. We prepared it well together as we could.

After had lunch, we went to Wonogondang at 2 p.m by bus. My trip were not enjoyable. Our bus got a problem in it's machine, so we couldn't continue our journey. We stoped it.Then we choosed a way to take a rest while waited for other bus as the changer bus. Some of us stood in the side of road, there were also my friends who sat in a small shop that was near and they bought some foods to be eaten, including me..hehe. Finally, the bus came to finish our journey. Normally, it needed 1 hour to be there.

Welcomed to Wonogondang!!!!!!

We arrived there were about 4 p.m. Woww...Wonogondang's environment was very fresh. The weather was very cold there, actually at night and earIy morning. We were so tired. But with all of spirit that we had, we toke a bath and did preparations to follow other next activities. Our new experiences were started. Each group showed their power of acts, mostly showed a musical drama that were very creative. Some of them were funny, including my group. The funny thing when my group showed our spirit shouting, we forgot the letters of it. So, we just could give our nice smile and sang it as we could although our speaking weren't clear.Not only that, i also demanded to show advertisements of shampo and milk. I was confuse because i didn't have enough preparation, without practise. I was so shy. But finally iour group could do it with all of our believing. Be success although these weren't perfect actions. But we were proud of ourselves who had the best effort to do it. There were also some acts from the committee. We enjoyed it around the bon fire...it helped me to be heated our body during our activity. The most interesting experience was joined at night, it was about 1a.m. We did tracking activity together with our partner group. Our trip was very far. At the night, cold's weather, dark, far journey, could you imagine it? But all of it didn't feel because there were many friends. Beside that, the parts of tracking were also very exciting. In group, we tried to do some games that we could take the values from it, one of them that the cooperation was very needed in group to do all af things. When our journey did, i falled once time. But i could finish the tracking until the end of part, that was when the delegation of committee washed our foot as a symbol that they appreciated us and welcomed us as the members of PBI Sanatha Dharma. At 5 a.m, i toke a rest because we had to be ready to continue next activities at 7a.m. Actually, it wasn't enough. But we still did it with our high spirit because we did outbond. The one activity that be the top of all because our cooperation in group was proved. Many games that we had, such as tembok berlin, pukul bantal, pipa bocor, etc. Our body became wet because the games were about water. So exciting!! My sadness was when i wanted to take a bath, i had to queue up for a long time. Because it, i had lunch where was nearby the bathroom with my friends. Not only that, i and one of my friend got the lastest turn to take a bath. So that, we late to assemble with other friends. We didn't join the last jingle of ewd. It was so dissapointed for us . But we didn't care about it because in the last event our group of nine got a achievement, that was the best group.waaawww..so amazing!!! Although our spirit shouting and talent show wasn't nice, but our group actually had something else that made us became different, that we had high spirit to do all of things and good cooperation to develop our skills in group. Thank you to all members of nine, the special one to our group leader. We did the best guys!!

Finally, our activities were end. We went home at 4pm. Thanks to god that our journey was fluent normally. These were all about my experiences in EWD. I hope, it wasn't the end of all that we have got in EWD. It may be a first part to us to cooperate in the same way and purpose, that is to get success in PBI. I will memorize all that we did together in EWD till the end of my life.

Together we can make a history,,,,,,,,,!!!is it right??
