A Worth It Love


The story began in a white house where a beautiful girl woke up starting her day. Her name was Lily who was known as really bright and smart girl in her village. Starting her day by doing chores was definitely her routine before she went to school. Her school was quite far from her house. It was located in a nearby town. And To reach the school, people need to pass little rain forest. It caused not that many villagers went to school. 

Lily was not only known among villagers for her brightness but also her really strict family. Although they lived in the village, they have more moderate thought in seeing education than villager for general. It was quite good but it also led Lily into trouble.

In the deep of her heart, Lily was in love with a young farmer named Jade Huston. Nevertheless he was very nice looking with strong muscles. Unlike Lily, Jade did not go to school since he came from a poor family. Jade was a hard worker. Although he worked in others’ properties people reckoned his good working. Mostly the girls in the village adored him including Lily. Not to mention that Lily was always looking at him whenever she passed his farm. Unfortunately Jade did not know that Lily was in love with him. 

One day, Lily was ordered to continue her education in the Town. She definitely loved the idea but she still worried about her feeling to Jade. Even she was afraid to tell her parent that she was in love to Jade. She knew at the time she told the truth, her family would neglect her feeling. “What happens my dear? You look unhappy with your future education” said her father. “No Papa, I just think it maybe will be that hard to separate from you all” said Lily lied. “Oh my lovely Dear, we will visit you very often. So no worry, alright!” said her father enthusiastically. “Thank you Papa, I think I feel better” said Lily. 

Lily was accepted in the Julian College, one of the most prestigious colleges in British. By the day she was about to go to the Town, her family held a little farewell party. Some of her friends were invited. Surprisingly Jade came, too. 

“I am very happy to say to you that my lovely daughter, Lily is going to take medical course as her major” her father starting his words. Lily was blushing and smiling as well as bunch of applause was welcoming the speech. I wish you a very luck there sweet heart” ended his father. At the moment she was about to enter the cart, Lily was staring at Jade, her first love. Jade was looking her as well. They were staring for minutes without any word left.

In the way to the town, Lily was hardly thinking about the meaning of his sight. Lily was just able to guess that maybe Jade was really sad to let her go. “Maybe Jade was love me…said Lily under her breath. 

Throughout the year, Lily was really busy with her college stuff until she did not have to send a letter to jade. However in the deepest of her heart, it was only for jade. Lily spent four and a half for her medical school. She was inaugurated as a doctor and could work soon.
“Papa, I have graduated” said Lily happily. “You are really my lovely and my proud, dear” said her father. 

“Papa, may I go to see the farm? It was so long since the last four year I saw it” said Lily. “Sure, my dear”. But come back before dark, will you?” asked her father. “You have my word Papa” said Lily without any doubt. 

Lily was really happy. She was so glad standing and feeling the breeze in the farm. From far she saw a woman and a little girl walking ahead to her. “Hi, what a lovely afternoon” said the woman softly. “Oh, yeah, it was so nice, anyway my name is Lily. And you? Asked Lily. “I am Elizabeth, Elizabeth Huston. Lily’s pleasant was only last for a minute by the time she heard it. It meant that jade was got marry. The woman in front of her was his wife and the little girl was their daughter.

“Lily! shouted a man behind Lily. Lily was turned around and saw Jade. “Papa! shouted the little girl. Finally, Lily knew that actually Jade was in love with her. They were just too afraid to say their feeling each other. It was what made them separate. It made Lily realized that actually Jade, her love was worth it to be achieved for.


My Tough Decision and Let’s Pull an All-Nighter


I want to say good thing. I want to write good thing. I want to read good thing. All thing I say good thing is I want to stay debating. Yes, Memei was right that I will survive. That I have to use this chance. That I must not lose this chance.
I am not allowed to waste the chance to the thing that I even haven’t seen it, haven’t felt it and more important is haven’t tried it. I won’t sacrifice the chance to go to BAWOR for myself being loser.

 I say, debate is my entire life. Look Septima, you still have time, you have capability, you have great friends, moreover you’ve got your exact purpose.

Tonight, I commit to myself and Memei that everything they both said were right. And Memei was really open my eyes. She said “Septima, you cant waste this opportunity. You cannot build yourself forever in debate competition. You have to realize that we have to give the chance to the next young EDSers”  I got it that this is my time. I have to be the best and of course do rehearse. WTF with the other arguments which against it. Memei was absolutely right. And I think it was so freaking cool argument. 

I am able to see the bright side. Even though I should pay for about IDR600.000 to join this competition, I say it doesn’t matter. I know I am lack of money. I could say to you that I only have IDR100.000 in my account which is split into two sections. The first section is IDR50.000 in my purse, and the rest IDR50.000 is in my account. I know it is lame but I believe a big opportunity and experience will be waiting for me in Purwokerto. 

For the last but not least, I love you Grandpa who really support me even thou you also worry about what is we say ‘ a classical ‘ reason. Let’s do the best and I know Allah will do the rest.

Keep debating because I say that debate will put me in the very indisputable honor of my life.

We Say that It was Sensitive

The time has passed. I don’t know when it actually happened but it had happened. I read an article suggested by my friend. It was about someone who apparently “doubting” the existence of Indonesia, my beloved country. I don’t expect more than his masterpieces at the first time. However, now people considered him for kinda bad. Yes, it was one of my favorite singer, JB who tried to speak about his experiences in my country.

Let’s say that it was nothing but just some “bloopies”. I see now or we could say that talking something about one’s country is really really sensitive for ever. In my opinion, I believe that every single country in this world is more than special. We can see its geography, culture, people, building, education, government, habit, custom, service, health, and many others are very unique. They can vary. We could not simply say or judge that it is not good just because my behalf is not upheld Depends on my standard.  Many aspects should be considered at the very first place to judge something as good or pathetic. Moreover if this matter is related to societies’ behalf, maybe we could consider it more. Even if it is true, that a country belongs to a failed state, we should contribute together to fix it not even exacerbate the condition by saying inappropriate thing. 

Time to relax from the sensitive issues is when you talking this matter with someone you definitely know well. You will get trouble when you say something crazy beside someone who you don’t know at all. Yeah, believe me. LOL

The Brave and Faithful Doyle

Once upon a time, there lived an undisputable gorgeous princess named Dolla The Princess of Komee Kingdom. She was young but really proficient in the skill of war. She acted as deputy of general in the Komee Navy for her appeal to his father, the King of Komee Kingdom. Not to mention that the kingdom had the most famous navy among the British Isle. Thus, it was hard to defeat it. The Kingdom was located in the North Edinburgh, Scotland where it known as ‘the Athens of the North’.

 As the role model, Princess Dolla tried as hard as stone to keep the Komee Navy’s dignity by dedicating her full attention to this matter. She even ignored how to smile when she drilled the troops. One of her troop, named Doyle was one of the brilliant troops in the Komee navy. He had precise and accurate gun shoot. Moreover, the thing that could not be neglected was he had really charming face. Somehow, the Princess Dolla caught his skill at the first sight. They get closer and more since the incident in the last rehearsal when she was exhausted felt unconscious in the ship far from Edinburgh. The one that directly armed her was Doyle. He looked after the Princess until she got healthy. 

Within months their relationship was smelled by the King. As the nature of tradition, it was forbidden for the Princess to have close relation toward the below stage. “You have to end this craziness my princess. Nothing can be counted on this boy” said the King in the gently to his daughter in the castle. “He is not only a boy, he has name, father” insisted the Princess. “He is Doyle and he is more than awesome” said the princess. “Nobody is allowed to break the rule, neither do you” said the King clearly. The King left the Princess alone. 

The other day, Princess Dolla met Doyle in the field and told him what had happened. “I am more than brave to show my faith toward this kingdom as well as my faith to you, Dear” said Doyle. “What will you do then?” asked the Princess soon. “I am going to meet your father and ask you for me” said Doyle without any doubt.

The next day, Doyle met the King in the main castle and stated his intention. “What you have son?” asked the King sarcastically. “You even nobody who solely came from poor farmer family” added the King. “I’m is nothing if compared to my faith to this Kingdom, Your Majesty” said Doyle calmly. I give my dedication to my family, my King and Dolla. I believe I can prove it, My King” added Doyle. “The question that, will you let her to break the tradition which this Kingdom puts it at the top principle? I can’t guarantee your appeal to be recognized if you don’t have that capability you claimed before”, said the King directly. 

“I will do whatever you ask, My Majesty” said Doyle. 

The day of prerequisite came. Doyle was asked to come to the amphitheater where the whole people of the Komee kingdom were able to gather and see what the King ordered. In the edge of the left entrance, there were two huge black boxes. Doyle who came from the opposite entrance was little trembling to see those two square thing provided by the guards of the castle.
“Doyle, just face it! It was what you order right” said the King loudly. “Just point one of those two boxes. Prove that you serve your faith to us. One of them is two little pet of mine, if you can be last for the last a day with those creatures without kill them, you passed” added the King. Hearing that threat the Princess started to be frantic. “The other box is the thing that you like, probably. Whatever you got, you should convince them to be still strong to achieve your goal” said the King lightly.

This was the time. Doyle walked forward close to the boxes and slowly pulled the black carpet covering the left box. Big but sealed since they sleep, two big lions, were there. The cage was opened soon. And now, Doyle was caged with two crazy big lions, in a day.

He definitely would not disturb these lions. The last hours, there still no movement in the amphitheater except the blows of the lions’ snores. Suddenly when the sun dropped, there were movements. The smaller lion woke up. The whole people were frantic. Doyle with such his power thought about the strategy he should do. The lions seemed hungry. Knowing that lion is a greedy creature, Doyle got a trick. “Come here big cat, are you hungry?” said Doyle loudly. The lion seemed annoyed. Without any instruction, the smaller lion run to catch Doyle but he masterly avoiding to the other side, and it crawling the bigger lion. Doyle kept freezing like he gave up. The bigger lion was mad and defeated the little lion simply because the bigger lion did not want to share its dinner. It was more than freaking out. The last minutes, the smaller lion seemed lost and at the same moment the princess run to unlock the entrance and made Doyle could go and free. The people were applauding since they knew that there were no rules broke.

Finally Doyle could marry Princess Dolla. He could prove that his faith and his brave for her led him to not break the rule. They lived happily ever after.


Music Live Show

Last Saturday, I and my friend went down town to watch SCTV music live show called Hip-Hip Hura! at Simpang Lima plaza, Semarang. It was not the first time I saw bands and solo actress performances. I had enjoyed music performances before, but at night, it was different. At first, I thought that watching Hip-Hip Hura! would be wrong to give it a try. I was wrong, however. We both really enjoyed the show. We walked closer to the main stage which was really crowded by the audience. They were singing together with Gigi Band in song titled ‘Sebelas januari”. It was rather hard to move but we finally could get little space to stand. It was not really close to the stage. Far enough I guessed, even to see head of the singer itself. Nevertheless, it was more than great. Then, for the rest two hours, the songs we loved were performed really gorgeous. After a loitering, we went back to the boarding house. It was more than recharging our souls when we enjoy the show. It was new and refreshing, as well.

My Great English Department

My Great English Department
1st Revision

I've been studying in one of the best English Departments among Indonesian universities for this approximately last 4 semesters. English Department of Semarang State University has been recognized as the best English major in Central Java. It is integrated with Faculty of Languages and has been struggled to achieve the ISO recognition which could generate this major equally as best as other international measurement. It's divided into two programs they are English Education and English Literature. People consider this major for long period for it sophisticated personnel including the staff and lectures as well as the students. The lectures are amazingly friendly and easygoing toward their students in the teaching and learning process. They facilitate their students by ranging some of the demanded course works such as debate, journalism and of course pronunciation. It also provides comprehensive teaching materials which can be implemented as well by its graduates in educational matter and literature. The facilitation is astonishing. It has 2 major laboratories of language as well as sufficient classes. Mostly they are small classrooms but not that limiting the students because each class only consists of not more than 23 students. The knowledge transferring runs effectively and the interaction between students deems excellent. In short English Department of Unnes gives great experiences toward the students from its visible aspects to create smart applicable graduates thoroughly.
