Today 19/2 our hard work was paid off. In SEO 2011, SSB brought victory home to our campus. Our Movie Team won the 3rd place!!!

We were so excited!!! We came as newbie in this competition. Our goal is to make our school been recognized by other campus and enriched the experience for the students. All participants had done well during the competition. I have to give special recognition to Movie Team.

With all difficulties, less than 2 weeks, they presented a good documentary about dream. The title of the documentary is "I Dare To Dream". The story was about the street singer named Adam who had a dream to become a soldier. He refuse to give up with his condition and continue his education in free school.

This story made Movie Team earned the 3rd place. So we dedicate this award to Adam and other street singer who still preserve their dream. If they can and still dream, why can't we?

It's been quite journey this week for my SSB kids. Starting from Monday 14/2 until today 19/2 they compete in Sout East Asia English Competition 2011. There are 6 categories in this competition and SSB participated in all categories. Those categories are scrabble, debate, speech, news casting, short-movie making, and story telling.

This is the first time we participate in such a big event. The aim for the students is to gain lots of experience and learn the system. So we don't give high target to them. But the result is quite good.

Story telling and news casting breakthrough to the octo-final along with movie team. Debate, speech and scrabble eliminated in the first round but with good result. Debate team only lost 1 point to through and our adjudicator managed to be chair adjudicator in one round of debate. Scrabble, from 10 rounds he win 4 rounds. Speech, quite good experience she got from this competition.

Today, the only survived team is Movie team. Now I'm in @America Pacific Place to hear the announcement. Cross my finger to my Movie kids. So, I gotta go!! Want to hear the announcement hehehe. Pray for us!!!

No, I'm not talking about coming back to UI, my old campus. Today (15/2), when the calendar marked red because of Maulid Nabi, me and my SSB colleagues accompanied students for having South East Asian English Competition (SEO) 2011 at Binus University in Anggrek Campus. So technically, I'm back to campus.

Arrived at 8 AM, I felt young again. Back to the days when I'm still "free" and having fun with friends, and sometimes lecturers hehehe. I remember clearly every activities where I participated as committee. I kinda miss wearing jacket, the Yellow Jacket, when participate in a committee. That jacket is a witness of every hard work from zero to the end of event. Saw the committee,today, wearing their jacket, makes me want to go back to that time.

I enjoyed every meetings, every arguments, every difficult processes, every sleepless nights until the event started. I'm sure the committee from Binus also did the same. Without those steps, today's SEO 2011 won't be happen. Thank you for this competition so my SSB kids have the opportunity to develop themselves, meet new friends, and learn from this events.

Most of all, thank you for this competition because I have the opportunity to remember and cherished every moments I have back in university with all the activities,,, But I still love my friends, not my campus :)

The man that I admire since the beginning I knew him
The man that I adore because of his hard work during hard years
The man that I love because his songs console me from time to time
The man that I respect because of his bold decision
The man that I respect because he respects those who love and hate him
The man that I like because he likes to spread positive energy


That man is Han Geng, Prince from China


Happy birthday. Sheng ri kuai le ^^
