So Many Things

Hey, how are you doing? I think, it's been a long time I didn't write, it's over two months. It because I've been so(k) busy with my job around this two months. I've hated of being away like this, I've lost  so much time because I was too busy with that. And in this post, I have so many things to tell you around my-where-are-you-dee-in-this-two-months. Hmm, so hard to begin the post haha...

* New Best Team

One of Management Trainee's Programs in my company is Pelatihan Militer. WOW. Yeah a week of military things in PASKHAS Subang on Nov 10-14th, 2014. Ini adalah markasnya Angkatan Udara RI di Subang. Who's join this program? All Management Trainees with four Japan Interpreters. Sampai di Subang jangan pikir kita langsung leha-leha makan siang, di jemur coy. Ya, dijemur di bawah sinar matahari jam 12 siang, merangkak dengan sikut lewat kolong mobil tentara (tronton) yang bau bensin, jalan jongkok keliling markas sambil nyanyi lagu Syukur (untung gue hafal haha) dan another kegitan yang sangat menyiksa fisik. Awalnya gue ngerasa bakal krik krik banget nih menggabungkan anak MT Batch 1 & 2 bareng Interpreters juga dalam kegiatan beginian, secara di kantor kita gak deket-deket amat gitu.Tapi, seminggu di PASKHAS bikin kita makin kompak. Fellowship-nya dapet banget, semakin sehati dan semakin kenal kepribadian tiap-tiap orangnya. Di tambah lagi besoknya kita ada Konsolidasi Management PT EDS Manufacturing Indonesia di Puncak selama dua hari. Overall, badan remuk-remuk terbayar sama kekompakan tim baru kita. Love you, guys :)

* (almost) 15 Hours Worker A Day

Yeah, It's been one of thousand reasons why I didn't write this blog for so long time. Kebayang dong 15 jam kerja. Yah, gak sepenuhnya 15 jam sih haha. Ini total dari gue pergi dari kosan sampai gue sampai di kosan lagi. Lemme tell you, I went to work at 6 a.m every morning, normal work until 4 p.m. But, I entered QA Departement, which the boss nyuruh kita buat stand by along the night kalau tau-tau tiba-tiba ada claim dari customers. Jadilah kebanyakan (bahkan hampir semua) supervisior di sini pulang jam 9 p.m, sampai kosan lagi jam 10 p.m. What a 15 hours to work kan? hiks :(

Gak setiap hari sih, seminggu itu gue pulang jam 9 bisa 3-4 kali, selebihnya? Pulang normal? Oh, no. Paling cepat pulang jam 7 p.m. Brrrr, melepuh gak tuh badan? Lucky me, I met humble and fun people here. So, I didn't feel much stress everyday, even always full of laugh. Tapi kan tetep aja badan gue gempor kerja sampai 15 jam gitu.

* 22nd Birthday

New age, I turned 22 on December 17. Well happy 22nd birthday to me. I can't believe another year has past and I'm really 22 haha. Praise the Lord for the new age. Bersyukur banget rasanya tahun ini. God has gave too many things to me. Getting older is not about how old you are, but how you can control your responsibility maturely. Mature is no matter how old you are, but how far you have self control every breath you take. And I'm still learning about that. Gak minta banyak di ulang tahun ini. Hanya minta supaya Tuhan lebih mendewasakan hati gue dalam situasi apapun, baik itu berat atau pun senang. I would like to thank everyone for their wishes and blessings, I really appreciate it with all my heart. Dan entah kenapa, wishes-nya banyakan tentang pasangan hidup buahaha lucu juga sih kalau direnungin. Di-amin-kan saja deh, toh itu kan doa juga buat gue haha.

Anyway super thank you buat QA Team yang udah kasih surprise. Gak nyangka deh bapak-bapak dan ibu-ibu ini bisa juga ngasih surprise ulang tahun yang super unyu.

Birthday cake from Ain, Regina, and Helmi :)

* CPNS Kemenkeu

Oh actually it was a secret, because diam-diam gue ngelamar CPNS selama masih bekerja hehe. Bosan dan muak dengan birokrasi pelayanan di Indonesia adalah sebagian kecil alasan gue untuk ikut CPNS. Another reasons ya karena orang tua dan 'kepastian' di masa depan. Alasan utamanya, please ask my self secara langsung. Setelah melalui tahapan seleksi yang sangat panjang dari bulan Juli-Desember 2014, akhirnya tanggal 19 Desember yang lalu sampailah pada pengumuman akhir CPNS Kemenkeu 2014.  Puji Tuhan and Praise the Lord, I passed the test. Hello Direktorat Jenderal Bea dan Cukai Kementerian Keuangan RI!! In the next post, I'll tell you about how I struggle this requirement. It became the greatest birthday present from God. Thank God :)

The conclusion of keterimanya gue di Kemenkeu adalah gue harus resign dari PT EDS Manufacturing Indonesia yang selama ini sudah memberikan so many lessons about dunia kerja yang sebenarnya. Sedih banget rasanya berpisah dengan Best Team dan QA Team yang baru saja merasakan kesehatian dan keakraban yang luar biasa. But, life must go on dan kita harus memilih. Good luck and thank you for you all! See you next time :")

Xoxo,
