And we are the winner.. :)

I have a great week this time, after 3 weeks examinations..
Winning the competition in the business game, becoming the second ‘richest’ person among all shareholders,
and having a good news for some marks.. hehe..
The prize for the winner is one bottle of sparkling white wine from the professor, which is now only half bottle left for my teammate Paul :p..
Don't think I drink that half bottle by myself.. hehehe.. no no..

We have small party today.. Pierre, Kobua, Kom and me..
We cook Dry/Fried Sukiyaki with the best Thai Sukiyaki sauce.. (taste very good..), drink white wine.. and have the ice cream as the dessert.. What a great way to end the examination weeks..
Now I can’t wait for the next week..
mbak Rena will come and we will travel to some places! Yippiee….!!! =) =)

I Learn

I learn from what I read, from what I heard, from what I saw, from what I did, and from what I felt.
I learn mostly from you, people around me.
You all are great teachers indeed, without you realize it.

Lebih niat

Sekarang dicoba utk diniati dgn sungguh-sungguh..
bagaimana memiliki sebuah blog.
Gila susah banget cari nama buat blog..
gimana kalau tar cari nama buat anakku ya..

Jangan percaya matahari

Sudah 3 hari ini matahari bersinar terik sekali.
Harusnya sih asik ya.. kalo di Indonesia bayangannya pasti langsung panas..
Tapi yah seperti judul di atas, kalo hidup di sini, jangan pernah percaya sama matahari..
Udaranya tetep aja minta ampun dinginnya.
Beberapa hari ini sudah dibawah nol derajat celcius mulu.. kemaren malah sempat sampai dibawah minus 10.
Bener-bener deh.. Kalo ga siap peralatan perang, ujung2 jari bisa kerasa sakit banget..
Apalagi kalo naik sepeda.. wih.. sampe pingin nangis rasanya..

Ya begitulah.. tapi semuanya harus bisa dinikmati to?
Daripada jadi capek hati sendiri..

Situasi hari ini:
Baru selesai 1 ujian, ga selesai..
Besok siap2 3 hari berturut2 main bisnis (business game)..kita lihat nanti.. bisa dapet profit seberapa banyak.. atau malah bangkrut.. hehehe..

Panic, should I?

1st situation:
Just finished the exam, sat and ate in the mensa with Kobua and Kom (as usual..).
Suddenly Kobua said something.
“Why I never saw you panic, Jul?”
Me: “What? I don’t get it”
K: “Ya.. before the exam..during the exam.. before presentation.. you just look like this *show with her face how I looked*
Me: “really? like that?”
K: “Yes.. you look calm.. just smile.. speak little.. it’s like nothing will bother you..
Me: “really? *once again - still don't believe - did I look like that?*
K: “Ya.. While me.. well, you know I’m always panic..
and you know what happened when I’m panic..”
*HUAHAHAHA.. yes surely.. I won’t forget that day… one day full of SHITS.. hahaha.. *
Me: “hehehe..”

2nd Situation:
5 minutes before the exam end.
I just realize I still have a lot of questions to be answered..
So I choose questions that can be answered without too much thinking, leave some answers blank.
And when the prof asks to stop writing, I just stop writing without eagerness to write something else..while others still keep trying to write something.. (don’t know what they write.. )
That’s it.
Finish and submit it.
I don’t feel so much worry about the answers and about the result.

----
Conclusion:
Should I have this ‘panic’ feeling?
I don’t know why, I rarely have it now.. or actually I never have it?
I just remember, 8 years ago someone wrote in my birthday card complaining about this behaviour (how often I did many things that made him panic while I myself never looked panic.. :p)
So.. it’s already there for a long long time ago I guess.. hehehe…

Dreaming about the future

Have you ever dreamed about your future?
For example; what will you be, what will you have, what will you get, where will you go, who will beside you..
Actually, is it good or bad to dream about our future?
Some people may say it’s good because we know what we want to achieve.
Some people may say it’s not good because.. I don’t know.. maybe they’re afraid..afraid if their dream will never happened, and it just will hurt themselves.

I still keep my dreams about the future.
But for some things, I’ve already stopped dreaming.
Afraid? ya, perhaps..
I just realize that bad experiences can influence our mind a lot.
So I just try to enjoy every moment
because I won’t know whether I will have it again tommorrow..

hmm.. maybe that’s the answer of a question..

Yogurt, masuk angin, dan ujian..

Aku juga bingung kalo ditanya apa hubungannya yogurt, masuk angin sama ujian.
Tapi yg pasti, sekarang situasinya:
aku barusan abis kelar ujian, skrg lagi makan yogurt, dan badan lagi gak sehat bener karena masuk angin..

Soal ujian, masih ada 5 lagi yg di depan mata.. (3 minggu ini, 2 minggu depan)
Aku mikir setelahnya aja deh.. biar ga stress.. hehe..
Jalanin satu per satu.. (makanya buat rabu besok sama sekali belum mulai belajar, pdhl bahannya lumayan banyak..)

Soal yogurt,
Sekarang aku jadi suka beli yogurt..
gara2 nemu 1 jenis yogurt yg enak rasanya (mungkin karena ada coklat2 kecilnya, jadi pas dimakan bareng yogurt yg asam, rasanya jadi enak..)
Harganya 35 sen euro (kurang lebih 3000-4000 rupiah ya?)
Beratnya 175 gram.
Btw, makan yogurt bikin gendut ga ya?
Udah ada yg protes aku tambah gemuk soalnya.. hehehe..

Soal masuk angin,
ga tau nih.. perasaan jaket udah tebel, tapi kok masih bisa aja si angin masuk..
Tanda-tandanya jelas banget deh.. kemarin aku gampang banget ngantuk..
Udah minum kopi segelas tetep ga ngefek.
Mulai curiga deh.. pasti masuk angin..
Sialnya besoknya pas ada ujian.. jd semalam harusnya belajar malah dipake tidur.. sebel juga.
Tapi untungnya ujian tadi ga terlalu susah..
Gitu deh ceritanya..
Skrg mau tidur siang dulu…

Cuaca hari ini: matahari bersinar cerah.. tp anginnya sih tetep aja gede banget.
Menu hari ini: makan nasi yg khusus dibeli dr toko asia di hamburg.. hehe.. abis mahal banget di sini..

Nasi Goreng

Beberapa hari terakhir ini makanan favoritku adalah nasi goreng..
Berawal dari nekat bikinin nasi goreng buat 2 temen Thailand ku,
(mrk ga tau lho kalo aku blum pernah bikin nasi goreng sebelumnya.. hihihi..pasang muka yakin aja pas masuk-masukin bahan2.. hahaha.. :p) akhirnya aku bisa juga bikin nasi goreng..
tanpa bumbu instant lhooo.. (harap dicatat! hehe :p)
eh, kecuali sambel nya deng.. pake sambel oelek udah jadi.. made in indonesia..(sambel ini diimpor dari indo, aku beli di toko indonesia di hamburg, tempatnya kyk tempat selai gitu..)Harganya lupa berapa.. 2 euro-an kyknya (20 ribu rupiah.. mahal yak :p)

Gampang jg bikinnya.. rasa dijamin beda sama nasi goreng buatan bulek atau ibu deh..(apalagi buatan restaurant.. hehehe :p)
Kenapa bisa beda, ga tau jg ya..
Kalo diliat dr cara bikinnya, mungkin yg ngerti per-nasi goreng-an bisa tau dimana letak bedanya.

Pertama masukin minyak dikit, trus masukin bawang putih (aku baru sadar lho, tanpa bawang putih rasa masakan itu beda banget!)..
Abis itu bisa masukin bawang bombay (kalo mau) goreng2 bentar, trus masukin telor..
trus abis itu masukin dagingnya.. (aku pake tuna dan/atau daging kebab)
trus abis itu masukin sambelnya..
trus abis itu aduk2..trus masukin nasinya..trus masukin kecap..
trus aduk2..trus kasih merica+fish sauce..
kalo kurang asin trus kasih garam..
kalo masih kurang pedes trus bisa dikasih cabe bubuk (yg dulu bawa dr indo)..
aduk-aduk.. trus icip2 deh.. kurang apaan..

dikasih apaan lagi ya..? :-\hmm.. kyknya udah itu doang..
oiya… aku kasih brokoli jg.. buat ijo-ijo… hehe..
udah deh abis itu dimakan.. nyam nyam..mayan enak.. (biarpun bukan yg paling enak lho)
si Kom sama Kobua sih bilang taste good.. :p(nyenengin aku doang kali ye.. hehehe)
Mereka jg udah diajarin utk mengatakan masakan ini sbg ‘nasi goreng’.. hehe..

Akhirnya utk bbrp hari aku makan nasi goreng mulu deh..
Tinggal liat aja sampe kapan bertahannya..trus tar ganti lagi yg lain deh.. hehe..
(kyk brotchen aja, dulu makan itu tiap hari, skrg dah ga pernah makan lagi.. :p)

Cuaca hari ini: ujan rintik-rintik plus angin kenceng bangett!
jalan kaki ke kampus sambil pake payung buat tameng.. (payung bukan di atas kepala, tapi di depan badan.. haha.. abis anginnya gila..)
Menu hari ini: nasi goreng..

Segar Bugar

Heran deh..
Kalo besoknya ga ada ujian dan pingin ngerjain sesuatu malam-malam (atau dini hari),
kok gampang ya buat bangun dan tetep gak ngantuk.. (skrg jam 3 pagi dan masih segar bugar..)Tapi kalo besoknya ujian, ampun deh susah banget buat melek..(contohnya tadi malam..)Bingung sendiri aku..

First Exam

Today I have my first exam, after last time I did it almost 4 years ago when I was in Bachelor degree..
(hmm.. I just think what was my last exam at that time.. )

And my first exam is for Strategic Management class..
I should tell you the story about this course and its exam.
Although it’s one subject course, but actually it’s taught in 2 classes separately.
One is Strategic Management A, discusses about the Cost Accounting, and taught by Prof Mundt.
It’s not a hard topic to learn, although it has many formulas and we have to know which case use which formula..
As long as you’re clear enough about the case, know the meaning of each term and how they work, then you can solve the problem.
It’s an interesting topic, I guess.
Now I know that it’s not so simple to calculate costs, revenue, and profit if someday I have a factory.. hehe..

How about its exam?
It’s not very difficult (hopefully I’m right.. my answers are right, I mean.. hihihi.. :p)
But you have to do it carefully (in doing calculation especially), and also have to do it fast..

The other is Strategic Management B.
It discusses about general strategic management (besides cost accounting), like business environment, SWOT analysis, competitors, portfolio analysis, etc.
My opinion, it’s really a good topic to learn..
If you ever worked in management area, perhaps you will understand.
The problem is, (the only one and unluckly is the biggest one) this course is not taught by an expert or experienced person in this field..
So everytime I attend this class, I think:
- more than 50% of students in the class have no idea what she’s talking about
- 99,9% of students have difficulty to recognize her hand writing on slides or blackboard at the very first time they see it
- it’s the most quiet class I ever attend.. it looks like we spend more than 75% of our time in silent.. only the lecturer speaks, explains, and asks without no one is eager to answer her questions…
Even you can hear sounds from someone’s empty stomach (I ever told about this, right? :p)
It’s unbelievable..
But that’s okay.. we can not always expect to get everything exactly like we want, right?
That’s what I learn from this course.
As long as you like to learn it, just learn by yourself..
(easy to say but difficult to do.. hehehe.. just like I push myself to buy a Java book in order to start learning it, but until now it hasn’t worked properly yet.. hehe.. but I promise I will do.. :p)

Back to Strategic Management B..its exam is.. hmm.. how to say.. well.. you have so many topics where you have to remember all, and maybe only less than 20% of those topics comes up in the exam.. and badly I can’t even remember the answers for those questions completely..
Just write some parts I remember and leave the other parts blank..
Thank God I didn’t finish to remember all of them.. because I will regret then.. hehehehehe..

We do the exam in a Corum, a big room that has a lot of stair-chairs..don’t know how to explain it.. it’s like a movie theather..
We sit two chair between one another, and one empty rows between.
After 2 hours answering the questions, we have to submit all the answers and questions papers..
No one allow to bring the question paper.
And we have to write our name and matriculation number on each paper that we use..
If you use 10 pages, then you have to write your name 10 times..

What else should I tell.. hmm..
That’s all I guess.
After that, we (I and Kobua) end up ourselves at the backery.. drink hot caffee and eat choco croissant.. my favourite one..

Today’s weather: damn cold!
Today’s menu: haven’t decided yet.. some french fries perhaps.

Auf Wiedersehen

Ich habe einen Freund, sein Name ist Rikky.
Er is nett, und er hat mir viele geholfen.
Heute ist seinen letzten Tag hier, weil morgen zurückgeht er zu Indonesia.
Auf wiedersehen rik..
hoffentlich werden wir weider treffen.

~Das Leben muss vor sich gehen..

Berita gembira dari seorang teman..

Hari ini badannya masih kerasa blum bener..
Bangun pagi2 krn ada kuliah pagi, akhirnya diputuskan utk jalan kaki aja ke kampus.
Abis takut kena angin dingin kalo naek sepeda.
Emang bener dingin sih hari ini.. ga ada sinar matahari dan ga ada salju..
Hari ini ada 2 kuliah, tapi ga semangat banget.. pinginnya pulang dan bobok.

Eh iya, harusnya aku cerita sesuai judulnya yah.. hehehe..
Iya, di tengah badan yg lagi ga karuan, tadi sempat ngobrol sama seorang teman..
Dia lagi berbahagia.. lamarannya diterima dengan selamat.. hehehehe..
Ceritanya seru lho..mulai dari interview di cafe sampe berlutut di teras kontrakan dgn tas kerja masih menempel di pundak.. hihihi.. :p
Gak mampu cerita lebih detil.. tar ketahuan sama semuanya deh..hehehe..
Yang pasti jadi ikutan seneng deh.. Moga2 jalannya lancar ya pak..

Ternyata apa yg dialamin org lain itu bisa mempengaruhi apa yg sedang kita rasakan ya..
Begitu denger cerita temanku itu, aku jadi ikutan senang rasanya..
Akhirnya kebawa ke suasana hati.. jadi happy..

Ya udah deh mo cerita itu aja..baru inget dari tadi blum belajar2.. hehehe.. :p dah hampir jam 11 malem skrg..dan mesti ngerjain 1 pr dari salah satu konselor terbaik saya.. (thanks a lot, sir..! You can use my room if you want to come here with your wife.. hihi.. :p)

Menu hari ini: pasta tuna champignon saus tomat campur sambel ulek.. (abis ga kerasa pedes2nya gitu)Cuaca hari ini: dinginnnnn..

~habis gelap terbitlah terang.. hmm tau2 kalimat ini yg lewat di otak~

Meriang dan cerita sakit

Hari ini hawanya malass..
Mau belajar malas, kuliah malas..
Tadi udah buru2 ke kampus ga tau nya sampe kampus ga ada kuliah..
Pinginnya pulang trus bobok..
Tapi ga bisa tidur.. banyak pikiran.. lg puyeng..
Ditambah badan meriang-riang dan pemanas kamar blum jalan..
Untungnya skrg udah jalan pemanasnya, tapi meriangnya masih..

Kita membahas meriang aja deh..
Kenapa disebut meriang ya?
Kalo diliat dr imbuhannya, me-riang –> membuat riang ?
tapi yg ini sih membuat badan jadi lemes, ga enak buat bergerak, mata berat, temperatur badan agak naek, dan perut jg ga karuan..
Kenapa bisa terjadi meriang?
Mungkin krn perubahan cuaca yg tiba2contohnya dlm satu hari bisa ngalamin ujan salju, badai salju, ujan air, angin kenceng, sama matahari bersinar terang.. nah dijamin besoknya lgs meriang deh..
Atau krn kedinginan..nongkrong di luar yg jelas2 suhunya minus, trus perutnya kosong alias cuman diisi sepotong roti dari pagi sampe siang..
Atau mungkin jg krn kecapean..jalan kaki berkilo2 meter pake sepatu boot tebel yg bikin jempol ga bisa nekuk lagi, plus ujung2 jari kaki yg tetep kerasa beku biarpun dah pake boot.. (kangen make si lamprey tersayang.. sepatu paling enak sedunia deh.. *bukan enak utk dimakan ya..hehe*)

Gimana cara mengatasi meriang?
Aku sih minum nelco spesial.. obat batuk sekaligus obat demam, masuk angin, influenza, dll..
(ini bukan promosi lho.. abis emang punyanya itu doang.. hehe)
Langsung teguk dr botolnya.. males mesti cari2 sendok..
Tapi ternyata ga sekali lgs mempan sih.. kadang mesti berkali2..Buktinya dah 3 kali minum tetep belum ilang.
Atau mungkin minum obat lainnya..hmm.. si ibu bawain bekal obat segambreng sih.. tar aku liat deh sapa tau ada yg manjur.

Jadi begitulah ceritanya si meriang..
Sampe saat ini syukurnya baru si meriang, si batuk dan si maag yg datang menjenguk.
Moga2 yg lainnya enggak dateng deh.

Kalo udah hidup sendiri gini, baru kerasa deh mesti jaga badan bener2..
Ga bisa lagi denger ibu yg selalu ngingetin buat minum obat kalo aku sakit.. (gara2 aku sering lupa :p) dan ga bisa denger lagi omelan ibu buat nyuruh aku minum vitamin..(akibatnya sampe skrg vitamin yg dibawa dr rumah masih banyak banget gitu.. lupa minum mulu aku)

Tiba2 jadi inget penyakit2ku dulu.. lucu kalo diinget2.. :p
Di dlm keluarga, aku paling sering ke dokter..
Untungnya bukan yg parah2 sih..
Mulai dari alergi (kapuk sama debu.. bikin idung meler, mata gatel, dan bentol2..),
operasi gigi (cabut 3 gigi geraham sekaligus bow.. the best surgery i’ve ever had.. dgn dokter tercanggih deh.. hmm.. duhh.. kok lupa nama dokternya ya.. *dah coba inget2*maap ya dok.. tapi dokter emang top deh.. dosen FKUI, praktek di RSCM.. tuh aku promosiin deh.. :p),
batuk ga sembuh2 (sampe tes macem2 krn dikira paru-paru basah, tapi akhirnya ya sembuh sendiri gitu.. aneh deh),
sampe pernah tau2 benjol di leher.. agak sakit..
Cepet2 ke dokter, trus mau tau apa kata dokternya ke nyokap?
“Ini anak ibu sepertinya cuman KURANG GIZI saja…” hahahahahaha.. dikirain benjol kenapa..hihihi.. :p Akhirnya cuman dikasih vitamin gitu.. :p :p
Nyokap langsung ngomel2 deh.. hehehe.. malu2in aja.. dikirain ga dikasih makan sama ibu bapaknya… hehehehehehe..
Langsung deh besok2nya disuruh makan banyak mulu…

Wihh.. dah panjang.. udah dulu deh ya ceritanya..

Cuaca hari ini: cerah.. tp dingin banget..
Menu hari ini: nasi + telur ceplok balado campur mushroom.. mayan lah..

oiya, kemaren pas ke apotek ada timbangan gratis.. jd iseng nimbang deh.beratku masak 53 kilo.. tapi itu termasuk sepatu boot+jaket winter yah..akhirnya bisa nembus jg angka 50.. hehe.. bener rekor..tapi moga2 tetep deket2 50 aja deh.. males kl nambah2 lagi..
