The beauty of writing

I tried to find what is the similar word with "beauty" but in a more "gentle" term. But I could not find it.  Should I use the "handsmy" of writing?? I think its not appropriate :D

Okkey, the counting is now off, since I already got the unofficially OK from the two supervisors. Now is about my patience and my hardwork to make it official. Aheee Uyeaahhh,,, gogogogo


Next Monday finish #tekadmembara #semangatberapi-api

They, who appreciated the "patience"

Hmmm... Its about my story when i wanted to have a supervision with my supervisor. On friday, i started to waited for him. He said that he was busy. Next week. Ya next week is the time that he allocated for us. Okkay... Hmmm monday,  I started to sit in front of his office in the morning, together with the other thesis wariors. He came. But he said that that day he still busy, here and there. We asked for his time although in his spare time between his busyness. Okkay, he was not promise but he said that " if you want to wait me until the late afternoon, then if i have time i will supervise you" hmmm okkay, we standed on the right choice. We wait for him. But until 5 oclock he still not coming. 5 person in the list become four, then 3 and finally two. And when the athan maghrib, the supervisor was coming and he said " luar biasa, maghrib dulu ya..." alhamdulillah. hmm its my story, and finally i got an unoficially ok for my thesis. Gogogo #fighting

"Bring the acc form!"

#A new library in pasca unesa. Bigger than the previous one. Alhamdulillah.

#"lenkapi lampiran, perhatikan daftar pustaka, dan perhatikan penomoran"
" berarti bapak sudah setuju dengan formatnya?"
" iya sudah"
" berarti tinggal dilanjutkan pak"
" iya, lengkapi dan scan gambarnya tolong diperjelas. Diskusikan dengan pak agung. Tuntaskan"
" baik pak"
" bimbingan selanjutnya sekalian bawa form ttd pembimbing ya"

#duug.. subhanallah.... okkkayh pak . "I will"

What a nice day.
However, I know that the defense is not ax easy as I think. I should stand on my own shoes. And the eximenee in unesa so so so,..... chalenging

Ya Rabb, allow me to finish it on your way.

#Gogogogo
#Allahuakbar

Lets start the writing

The data are already collected. But they still stick in the memory of the computer. Still in untouchable mode. Hmmm.... Okkeh. A new home, a new spirit and lets rock the keyboard. Time to #analyseanalyseanalayse. Bismillah. Ajha ajha fighting. Hoy hoy

Hm...collecting data done. Thanks al hikmah

Tak terasa ya, I already finished collecting data. Hmmm its a wonderfull experience to be a partof sdial hikmah surabaya. Interaction with many visioner teacher who teach with passion not only as a job, but from the bottom of they hearth.

When the children growth with love and character building, then we can see a bright future ofournation on their eyes.

The integration of the islamic value in the learning process, make the teachingand learning become more dynamic.

Again, its not only about a job, but its a passion.

Thanks God, You Gives me such a great opportunity. (^_^) alhamdulillah

Bimbingan 2: Yes.. you can continue

As I said before, this morning, I started to wait for Pak Agung at 7.

ANd Pak Agung came at around 9. Although i was in the first place on the line, Pak Agung called one name, and a lady go inside the room to get the supervising. Then, ...

It should be me. But, a group of other students want to cut the line, but, sorry ya sist, I already learned on how to be polite in ur queque, and also how to protect and get your right. SOrry,, very very sory.

pandangan matanya dan gumamannya seolah bilang "mau masuk duluan?"

I answered by "Ya iya lah Ronal duluan, masak kamu yang duluan???" (with a low level voice, but i am sure they ccan heared it well) -_- They just came lately, many people already wait for Pak Agung, and they just want to cut the line??????????????

But the cases can be different if Pak Agung called the name, its mean that Pak Agung alreaady have special appoinment with the person, and she or he get the priority on Pak Agung's point of view.

Fiuhhhh.... I should be more patient and have a well adaptation with the mentality in this country (my country).

#---

Do you have a big change from the previous conference in utrecht?

No, Not really, i just combine the first and the second activity and add a card game at the end of the lesson sequence.

Okkay, then I will not revise much about your design.

Then He corrected some part of my worksheet, only about the indonesian that i used.

He also said, that if pak Mega (another supervisor) agree, I can start to collect the data.

Fiuh Alhamdulillah.

Semangaaat.

#---

At school, hmmm nice experience, nano-nano.

#---

Pak Agung, if  bla bla bla

Yeah, you can continue

^_^

SEMANGAAAAAAAATTTTT KAWAN

menanti untuk bimbingan

This morning, 7 oclok, I started to walk to pascasarjana unesa. Just for one reason, to be number 1 on the queque list for meeting with pak agung. Bismillah.

Last night, there are two point that should I concern to. First, one of my college said that one of my indonesian supervisor cannot actively use english. The second, we already got the feedback from our ducth supervisor. Hmmmm.... lets take a deep sigh first.....

There is a crucial comment about my design. The starting activity is not good enough.

Hmmm... but I am sure that I can revise it well. Yes, I can, I can, I can ^_^

Insya Allah.

Konfrensi Ba'da temu perdana dengan pembimbing

7 Feb 2014. Tidak hanya aku yang menemui pembimbing. Teman impome unesaku yg lainnya juga melakukan hal yang sama. Sebelumnya kami sdh mensurvey hal-hal terkait pembimbing kami masing-masing. Dan lalu kami mempersiapkan diri. Bahkan ada yg ga bisa tidur. Ada yang bersih-bersih kost tengah malam. Hehe... Kalau seseorang sudah melakukan hal hal yang kurang masuk akal di jam jam tertentu, itu artinya ia sedang galau :D
Nah, mulai lah kammi bertebaran. Dan subhanallah, banyak cerita yang nano nano. Dan kami selalu keep in touch d grup "unesa gemahripahlohjinawi" walau raga sedang kesana dan kemari. Berbaur dengan para pencari pembimbing lainnya. Ada yang menunggu dngan antrian yang sangat panjang. Ada yang mencuri lihat ke kelas tempat beliau mengajar. Ada yang tiap sebentat melihat apakah mobil beliau masih ada. Ada yang harus berlari antara pasca dan ruang s1 yang jaraknya lumayan jauh dan dibawah terik mentari. Subhanallah, mudahkanlah urusan kami ya Rabb. Kami akan berusaha sungguh-sungguh, insya allah. Tak semua cerita menemui pembimbing seindah ceritaku di post sebelumnya. Ada yang kena semprot sambil kertas nya di bolak balik, ada yang kena tanyai ini dan itu... Dan sore harinya, kami berkumpul di meja bundar food court bergiliran menceritakan pengalaman hari ini. Ya Rahman, terimakasih atas kesempatan yang hamba miliki, kesempatan untuk menjadi bagian dari 6 orang yang penuh semangat ini. Kami akan saling menguatkan. BISA BISA BISA. If there is no strugle, there is no progress. Dan kami menemui kesimpulan yg sama bahwa, we do love and miss you mieke, dolly, monica, frans, mark, and Maarten.

Bimbingan 1: Dari Padang lha kok Ronaaallll???

Berbagi tugas untuk memasukkan surat penelitian ke sekolah. Aku dan dua orang teman ke SD al Hikmah sedangkan 3 lainnya ke SD Lab UNesa. Wah nuansa sejuk dan damai menghiasi kawasan yayasan Al Hikmah. Teduh dan adem, mungkin karena keramahan dan wajah-wajah ustadz ustadzah yang membuat nya demikian. entahlah.

SD Lab Unesa, juga memberikan kabar harapan, walau memang masih harus menanti kepastian.

Dilanjut dengan menghampiri singgasana Pak Agung. Beliau adalah penanggung jawab program kami. WOW, orang penting memang, Antrian pasien bimbingan nya bejibun. Tak kan bisa kami memotong antrian, Tak enak rasanya, padahal kami hanya ingin konfirmasi, belum bimbingan. Tak kehilangan akal, kami gunakan telepon seluler. Ehm.... manjuur. Pak ini Cici. Cici ?? cici yang mana?. Cici Impome Pak. O iya iya, ada apa cici?. Dan dapatlah konfirmasi bahwa Dosen pembimbing kami sudah di proses. 

Cuss... mulailah kami berpisahan.

Diantara kami tak ada yang persis sama pembimbingnya. Rata-rata beririsan satu. Alhamdulillah aku kebagian pak MTB dan Pak Agung. Dan ternyata kabar-kabar yang kudengar tentang Pak Mega benar adanya. Orang nya ramah dan tak membuat jarak.

Sampeyan dari mana? Padang Pak.. Lha Padang kok Ronaaa??, hehe... biar modern dikit Pak :D

Topik nya apa? Pecahan Pak?

Nah coba, ada segitiga siku-siku dengan sisi siku-sikunya 4 dan 1. Tunjukkan representasi 1/2 pada segitiga tersebut!

Degh ... hahaha langsung ditodong. Dan jawaban ampuh adalah, nanti kami cari dulu Pak :D

Beliau bilang itu adalah pertanyaan yang beliau sampaikan saat ujian thesis atau disertasi ya waktu itu... :D

Overall ok. Taruh di beliau, dan selasa di ambil (^_^) Alhamdulillah. Ligaaat.

Dan sekarang aku sedang mem print bahan untuk pak Agung... eh malah mampir ngeblog. :D

Semangt, kawan. kita pasti BISA!!!

#17 realizing

Fiuh, its 17 days left before the conference.
What about my preparations?
How about the confidentiality?

Hmm, should plan everything well.
Focus and don't get lost.
You can do it, and absolutely you Can
Insya Allah

Ya Rabb Hamba memohon kekuatan dan perlindungan serta petunjukMu.Ampuni salah dan khilaf hamba dalam menjalani hidup dan kehidupan ini.
Banyak kelalaian yang telah dilakukan.
Insya Allah akan hamba perbaiki.

TFG Second meeting

Wednesday 25 of September 2013

I arrived at the BBL nearly at the same time with Mieke. But don't want to be in the same lift. So I just make a slow walk behind her. :D

Last night after seeing and hearing my housemates talk about their progress, I prepare for mine until the 4 o'clock in the morning. And its make me "deg deg an" since I think that i am not really prepared.

__
In the meeting, finally our group (at least one of us, Rani) gota very nice comment. Mieke appreciated what Rani had made. And from now on I stated that Rani is The Lady of Fractions 2013 ^_^

the second chance is Andrea, He spent much time of the discussion, almost 50 minutes (me and rani only about 25- 30 minutes for each). It seems like he needed to do some more preparation before the meeting. In my reflections, we don't need to look down to our self since might be over there there is somebody that need more more works to do although he already looks like "everything done" in the beginning.

Good luck Bro. You are not alone. We will fight together.

ALhamdulillah, i also got a good appreciation. She said that I make a better progress than before. She agrees with my idea and support it so much. She also gives some suggestion to continue the lesson. She also said that now, it seems that i already know where to start, what to do and the flow of the design.

AJA AJA FIGHTING :D

I believe, I always believe the power of pray. The days before the meeting i was so afraid that I can't do nothing with the design. Then I did a call to my Mom and Dad, chat with my ikhwah and friends in Indonesia and ask them to be put a pray for me. It might be misinterpreted by some people, but for me, we don't know Allah will approve the Doa from which people first. So, when so many people pray for you, maybe Allah will approve one of them immediately.

23 11 2012 full of experience

In this morning we have a little discussion regarding our photo matrix for visa requirement. Yeah, alhamdulillah we (10 person) has gotten our student numbers from UU. And Now we are processing our Visa and everything related to the preparation to Holland. Perhaps we will go there on early January 2013. Amiin insya Allah.

We sent the filled form for Utrecht admission and also for resident permit. And it had so many thing that we should do. We filled, we revised, we filled it again and we revised again. Sent it to Neso Jakarta, then we should get our Rector signature (some of us, back to their hometown to process it, others asked their friend or family to get it, including me, i asked Sobri to help me on getting the Rector UNP signature. alhamdulillah it had been done, but until now, i have not receive it yet, what is the problem?? may be on TIKI or JNE, i should make it sure ASAP).

then we also filled and sent form to UU, we sent it via email and also Fedex Express. For the first the charge was 751.000 an. Then because one of our document not fulfill the requirement (our photo) we should take the new one and sent it back. The passport photo for Netherlands visa is not the one like usual. they have their own requirement. we take the new one in Studio foto kita at Jl kutai 44 A Surabaya, it was recommed by Konjend Belanda in Surabaya. We sent it back to Utrecht via Fedex (459.000 an). Hopefully it is acceptable. Amiin.


Oya, back to after discussing in the morning, i and Fachry joined a Ujian Terbuka Program doktoral UNESA. WOW... coool!!! this was different sensation. I will be a Doctor and then Professor and I will sit there as the Dewan Penguji... Amiiin. They are cool!! really really cool!!

What a beautifull day. Full of experience.

#sorry bg jho, i couldnot go to Unitomo yet.

r.rifandi@students.uu.nl

In these days I and my friends were very busy with the administration for Utrecht University and Neso Office. So many forms and and file that we should filled in and sent to the appropriate address. But, as long as we did it side by side, it was enjoyable.

Unfortunately, we still in progress. Some of us waiting for their Passport. Then we must revised our application form that we have sent to Utrecht. Then we prepare everything to process our visa.

Hmm...
There is a problem, one of my friends (the 10th man) should wait again for further decision, because our professor in Fisme should give explanation and reason about the 10th man. I hope that it is not a big problem. Amiin

And the good news is..
Tarrrraaaaa... r.rifandi@students.uu.nl

I have got my Utrecht University account. So Happy. Alhamdulillah.

^_^

alhamdulillah, 6.5 with 6.5 --> the power of prays

After wait in a long waiting process, we can get the access to the results.

in the Saturday noon, me and 3 others go to IALF Surabaya and we met Mr Alex, he helped us to get our results. 

And Surprisingly, Allahu Akbar, i get the overall band 6.5 with writing band also 6.5.

Alhamdulillah it is better than before. increase 1 point.

although it just one point, but the way i get it and the process was so challenging and sometimes stressful.

Until now, i am the only one from Impome Unesa 2012 that insya Allah get the occasion to go to the Netherlands, but i still wait for the official announcement from the PMRI and Neso. Hope that the process is done well. 

I pray for the other friends that they can also pass the requirement and get the same occasion to continue our study in Holland. Please Ya Rahman, allow us to get it.

I just wanna say thank you to You God, because without You, i am nothing.

Keep me in Your Hand.

I know that it was not only my job, because i ask so many people to pray for me. And i believe that these help me so much.

Doa orang-orang sholeh yang terhimpun membuat jalan ini terasa mudah dan menyenangkan.

Aku sadar bahwa ketaatanku belumlah seberapa, bahwa aku sering lalai dan banyak dosa, aku khawatir jika hanya mengandalkan doaku saja maka ini akan terasa sulit dan jauh.

Aku bersyukur sekali punya komunitas yang berjuang untuk jalan dakwah ini. aku yakin mereka adalah orang-orang baik, orang-orang yang Mencintai Allah dalam diri dan keseharian mereka. Para ustadz, para Murabby, para ADK, dan beruntungnya aku bisa mendapatkan doa-doa dari mereka. 

Sekali lagi terhimpunya doa dari orang-orang sholeh, membuat semua ini mudah dan menyenangkan.

Syukron Jazakumullah khair ya Ustadz, Ustadzah akhy dan ukhty fillah.

Doa sahabat-sahabat dan guru serta Dosen juga keluarga, termasuk support mereka moril dan materil hehe. Terimaksih. Special to Ms Silfia and Ms Tsuroyya, you are the best Instructor that i ever have.

Bahkan aku sampai meminta doa dari orang-orang yang tak dikenal.

Saat di ruang tunggu bandara Soetta, bercerita dengan ibu-ibu, entah siapa, lalu pas berpisah minta didoakan bisa diberikan yang terbaik dari seleksi beasiswa ini. Dikesempatan lain, masih di Bandara, namun bukan di Soetta tetapi di ruang pengambilan bagasi BIM, saat membantu seorang ibu2 lagi, yang entah siapa-siapa, saat berpisah kuminta di doakan. Juga pernah di atas kereta, bercerita dengan ibu-ibu lain yang juga entah siapa-siapa aku juga minta didoakan. Pernah juga dengan supir taksi dari bandara Juanda, lalu supir taksi lainnya, yang entah siapa-siapa.

Aku mempraktekkan ini terinspirasi dari seorang sahabat blogger yang awalnya juga entah siapa-siapa, yang menceritakan tentang kekuatan doa.

Aku juga pernah dengar, kita tak tahu bukan, doa dari siapa yang diijabah Allah dengan seketika dan cepat.

Tentu saja yang paling berarti adalah doa dari Ibu dan Ayah, yang selalu ada dan paling kurindukan.

I Love you So much.

Thanks.

(NB: alhamdulillah pengumuman teman2 lainnya sudah keluar, dan total 6 orang dari IMPOME Unesa Surabaya: saya (UNP), Andrea (Unimed Medan), Cici (UNY Jogja), Herani (Unes Semarang), Yoga (UM Malang) and Fachry (UNM Makasar). 4 orang lainnya dari IMPOME Unsri yaitu Sri Rejeki (Jateng), Siwi (UM Malang) Wahid Y (UNY Jogja), dan Boni (Kalimantan) )

Semburat semangat dari Jakarta, Malang, Bali

Ehm...

Alhamdulillah akhirnya tes kesempatan kedua telah kami lalui dengan baik.
walau ternyata lebih CHALLENGING dari tes sebelumnya. Reading nya minta ampuuuuuuuuunnnnnnnn... Hanya lillahita'ala.

Tadi ada satu section yangmembahagiakan bagi ku. yakni seksi Speaking. Kami di interview oleh Bule yang menetap di Surabaya, beliau manager IALF Surabaya tempat dimana kami pernah mengikuti placement test  IELTS dan beliau yang menginterview kami. Alhamdulillah orang nya kind dan friendly. Jadi speakingku enjoyable. Dan lagi, Subhanallah, aku mendapatkan topik yang EXACTLY THE SAME with the previous test that i took at 22nd of September 2012, it was about "Sport Event" and "Famous Sport Person" untuk part 2 and part 3. Cool!!! terima kasih Ya Rahmaan untuk cintaMu yang bertubi-tubi kepada hamba. Walau terasa berat, Engkau hadiahkan kenyamanan bagiku untuk menutup tes tersebut. Walau hasil speakingnya nanti tetap saja mengkhawatirkan, karena the way i speak not good enough. Tapi alhamdulillah aku bersyukur.

Aku optimis akan berhasil kali ini, walau dengan konten soal yang jauh lebih suliit. Dengan Kuasa-Mu tentu tak ada yang tak mungkin. Hamba yakin akan hal tersebut.

Dan sekali lagi, kalupun tidak mencapai target, pasti ada rencana Allah yang lebih baik untuk ku... ^_^

"Aku tuliskan mimpi2ku dengan pensil, dan kuserahkan penghapusnya kepadaMu ya Rahiiim"

#Malang kota perjuangan
#Sempat silaturrahiim dengan bg Jho... lapeh taragak. walau hanya sejenak.
Syukron ya Bg... :)

there is a hope

I believe that if there is a will, then there is always a way.

I can accept my result, and i thank so much for that. But, i still hope that i can go to Holland to cont my study.

And this day, my friends from unsri called me, she said that i and cici, who got overall 6,5 but the writing only 5,5,  passed the requirement.

Alhamdulillah.
So it means we will go to Holland Insya Allah.

But... it still an unfixed information. as long as the center of PMRI didn't give the official announcement yet, i am affraid to give this information to my family and friends. Just wait until Monday, hopefully, the PMRI center give me the decission that they have made.


But for Now, Alhamdulillah aja dulu deh.

## love you guyzs :)

the Announcement

I didn't know that the 13th day came earlier. yups, the announcement of our ielts result was in Thrusday 4th of October 2012. I and my friends was in Jogja on that time. We got an information from our friend in Unsri, then we started to open the website by using our mobile phone. We were in the museum inside the vrederburg fort.

Hmm.. alhamdulillah. My result was good, and the higest among the others in my class. I reach the limit 6,5 for overall band but my writing was 5,5. it was mean below the standard. fiuh... But i still think that i can pass the requirements. Because until now, there are only 4 person who get the save band for going to Holland.

I can Insya Allah. ^_^

Syukron jazakallah for all of you the support me.. without your pray, i am nothing.

Alhamdulillah Ya Rahman.

#Ketintangsehat 2012

ehm....

entah kenapa aku selalu ingin memulainya dengan 3 huruf dalam satu kata itu. 'Ehm' atau 'hmm' yang kadang ku padu padankan dengan susunan tanda titik atau pun koma. Wallahualam, hanya saja aku merasa dalam tiga huruf itu aku bisa mengekspresikan beragam rasa, bermacam sudut pandang yg dengan ikhlas ku biarkan orang-orang untuk menafsirkan sesuai keinginan mereka. Tak masalah buatku, karena memang tak semuanya harus di ucapkan bukan? ^_^

woukeh...

tema tulisan weekend kali ini adalah #ketintangsehat 2012

why is it so??? 

Ketintang adalah wilayah tempat kampusku bertengger (*aseeek sudah pake kataganti "-ku" untuk merujuk rasa memiliki thd unesa seiring rasa cinta yang mulai tumbuh pada kampus dengan almamater biru gelap ini). Disana pula kost an ku dan teman-teman bertebaran. Nah, Hubungannya dengan sehat apa???

Begini sobat, Kalau di Padang aku biasa menggunakan motor. Baik untuk jarak jauh maupun dekat, hatta untuk membeli roti di warung dekat rumah (di Padang) sekalipun. Tapi disini?? jangan harap bisa demikian. Aku mesti berjalan. Ya Walking. walking overhere, walking overthere, walking to everywhere. dijamin sehat wal afiat insya Allah. Kuniatkan saja aktifitas walking ini mampu membuat tubuh semakin fit dan kuat. "Allah mencintai muslim yang kuat". :)

Masalah lainnya adalah, angkutan umum yang sangat jarang di temui disini. Rata-rata mereka sudah punya motor untuk mobilitas. jalanan penuh dengan motor. pengalaman ku membawa (meminjam tepatnya) motor di jalan sekitaran ketintang  hanya mampu di sekitaran gigi 2 dan 3. tak bisa lebih saking padatnya. Jadi Aku belum sempat keluar untuk ma'rifatul medan fi Surabaya. Keinginan untuk mengeksplore lebih jauh sih ada, tapi waktunya yang tak tersedia. Apalagi Ms Silf baru-baru ini menceritakan kisah inspiratif tentang sebuah kesungguhan akan perjuangan. Karena itu, program eksplorasi Surabaya ku pun tertunda. Untuk sementara biarlah aku menjadi orang kuper yang hanya bisa melihat Surabaya sejauh daya jelajah yang bisa ditempuh oleh kedua kaki yang di anugrahkan Allah kepadaku ini. Dan itupun untuk sekedar, kemasjid, ke kampus, beli makan, beli air, beli atk, beli obat, ke kost an teman, ke danau unesa dan berulang kembali. Biar ga gaul yang mesti tetap sholat dan mengaji *aseek RTNL 2013 (Insya Allah, Amiin)

walking membuat SEHATsehatSEHATsehat ALLAHU AKBAR !!!!
