Buka wordpress dapet beginian, sebelum update beneran, share ini dulu deh :p

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

A San Francisco cable car holds 60 people. This blog was viewed about 1,200 times in 2011. If it were a cable car, it would take about 20 trips to carry that many people.

A lesson from my carelessness: Lost Your ATM Card? o.O

Well, seems like I’m too careless these days. I lost my ATM card for *biip* times this year (censored) xD. Phew, it’s really kinda something. So I have done some procedures-to-create-new-ATM-card over and over. At the first time I lost my ATM card, I was so panic. But after several times, I learned how to stay cool when I lost it, haha. I just have to do a little this and that, and taraa..I got my new ATM card. B)

So, I’d like to share what you must do when you lost your ATM card.
First of all, don’t be panic. All you have to do first is to block your ATM card to avoid misuse by anybody who found it. You can call the 24 hours call center of your bank. The bank officer will help you to block your lost ATM card, so nobody can use it anymore. You can also check the last record of the transaction you’ve made with your ATM card. So, if nothing is wrong with the information you got, there is nothing to worry. You can assume your bank account is safe now.

The next thing to do is to report your loss to the nearest police station. Seems scary? well, actually it is not that difficult to do. For those who are Universitas Indonesia students like me, you can just come to the UI branch police station. It is easy to find, just look for the blue building located near the Pondok Cina train station. People call it “Gedung Biru” or “Gedung PLK UI”. Then, just ask the policeman to make a “letter of lost ATM card”. He will sure help you to make it, you just have to fill the form required, or dictate the information of your loss to the policeman. Wait for some minutes, and there you have the letter! don’t forget to say thank you to the policeman. (As I know, you don’t have to pay anything for this).

Okay, so now you have blocked your ATM card, and you have the “letter of lost ATM card” with you. You’re just one more step to get your new ATM card. Next, bring your passbook (bankbook) and your Identity Card along with the “letter of lost ATM card” to the bank. Go to the customer service, and fill the form required to create a new ATM card. There is two kind of ATM card you can choose to have, the instant one (without your name printed on the card), or the regular one (with your name printed on the card). The instant card can be obtained and used just at the moment, but the regular card needs 7 days to be ready to use. Which one is better? It’s yours to choose! In this part you have to pay for the new ATM card. In my case, I had to pay ten thousand rupiahs. That’s all, now you get your ATM card back! hooray :D

So, what is the moral of the story?
Do not ever lost your ATM card. Take care of it, and don’t be careless.
but if you ever lost it, just stay cool and do those things I’ve explained above :)
cheers!

Welcoming Ramadhan Far Away From Home

Alhamdulillah..so this Ramadhan will be the 4th one since I became a college student and went from my house to live in Depok. I’ve learned several things to prepare for Ramadhan, especially when you are far away from home (like I am now). So here I would like to share some tips:

1. Make some plan and targets. We don’t want our Ramadhan to be just like the ordinary days, right? Prepare and plan for it, you can write on your diary, or any paper, or even in your blog (if you don’t mind). Create some targets you want to reach in this Ramadhan. Creating targets helps you to keep busy on doing good things, and protecting you from wasting your time.

2. Stay healthy. It is very important to prevent from getting sick during Ramadhan. Since you are not home, you have to take care of your meal by your own. The hardest part here is when you want to have sahur. Going outside the housing to find a meal before Fajr is usually being avoided by most students, especially girls. I just found out that some food stall around the neighborhood offers a ‘delivery service’ (with ‘student price’ of course). So you just need to text them, and they will get the sahur meal in front of your door (yay!). If you don’t found those services, you can have bread, or kurma and fresh water for your sahur, just like Rasulullah did. Try not to skip sahur, because it is a sunnah of the Rasulullah. Like it was said in this hadist:

The Prophet (peace be upon him) instructed: “Have a meal before you fast, for sahur is blessed.” (Bukhari and Muslim).

3. Meet good friends. Gather around with friends who can encourage you on reaching your targets, and also keeping you healthy. You can share your targets, or even make Ramadhan targets together. By doing it, you can remind each other to accomplish the Ramadhan targets you’ve made together. You also can have your friend waking you up for sahur time, so you wont miss any sahur meal.

Okay, so those are the Ramadhan things I’d like to share to you. I hope this Ramadhan will be the best one ever. Let’s make it a memorable one. Have a great Ramadhan! May Allah bless us..aamiin! :)

And the time goes by…I’m turning 20!

Alhamdulillah…It is just hard to believe that I have experienced life for 20 years.

I want to thank my dearest Mom and Dad, for raising me up with so much love. My mom is really a loving mother. I remember she always take me to the play yard and buy ice cream for me (before I cried xD). Daddy is so amazing and lovely, I remember how he always read me bed time stories before I go to sleep. Daddy is really a great story teller! Also my little sister, for always being my best friend (and enemy, sometimes :P ). It is so hard (and scary) to imagine how my life would be if I didn’t have them. Thank you Allah for giving me such a great and loving Mom, Dad, and little sister. I hope You will always love and protect them..aamiin.

Along these 20 years, I met friends, teachers, neighbors, and a lot of people. They made my life really colorful. I met a lot of friends, I learned from them how to be brave, be organized, be happy, be grateful, be proud of myself, and many more. My teachers gave me a lot of knowledge, they also made me learn how to behave, how to respect people, and how to make dreams and reach it. I am so lucky that I am surrounded by these loving, caring, and inspiring people. Perhaps including you who are reading this post xD. So, thank you! :)

not going to PIMNAS (again)

Well, it’s just the same thing happened like it was last year. Me and my team are not selected to be a PIMNAS participant. Last year me and my team did a community service program about selective media, but we didn’t go to PIMNAS. This year I tried to start a small business called Star Stir. But also, we didn’t pass the selection to be a participant in PIMNAS.

The different thing is, that now I don’t feel as bad (and dissapointed and sad) as last year. I’ve experienced this failure twice.

Okay, so PIMNAS is not everything, and not going to PIMNAS is not the end of the world, right?

I’d like to appreciate my team for the hard work, and also my friends for their kind support and testimonies. Trust me, this is not the end of Star Stir. I promise, we’ll be back soon! :-D

The New UI Central Library : A great place to ‘escape’ :D

welcome to the crystal of knowledge!

It’s Friday! But it’s a tough day for me since today is the deadline of CIS programming task and I haven’t done it yet. And I had to get to campus very very early in the morning. And I got late, and I had to run on the track. So this is really a random terrifying day for me. I don’t even want to remember my face and how I look today. I remember almost everyone I met in the class, or canteen, or sekre who met me said,”you look so exhausted, your face shows that you have a lot of tasks”. Oh excuse me, is my face that bad, or are you saying I have a ‘madesu’ face? Aaa..I really wanted to wear a mask, or to be invisible that day ><.

In the middle of my terrifying-hectic-galaw day, I just remembered that there is a new great place to escape near Fasilkom: The new Central Library! Today is the first operational day of the library. :D
