I’m so excited!!! One by one, application for Sampoerna School of Business (SSB) came to our office. Excited, because we can facilitate bright Indonesian student to continue their study to higher education without the thought, “I want to go to college but my family don’t have money.”

SSB offered 2 (two) kinds of payment, scholarship and student financing. I guess everyone very familiar with the term “scholarship”. But “student financing”, is a new term even for me. Well, student financing has a same meaning with student loan. College student can have a loan to continue their study. After they graduate, they will return the loan.

Student financing have the same scheme like student loan. Well, hopefully I can explain it right. This scheme is based on syariah system. In short, no interest loan applied, no fees, and not influenced by inflation rate like any other loans you heard nowadays. The fund they return will be use to another bright student to continue their study.

For now, this scheme only applied in Sampoerna School of Education and Sampoerna School of Business for Bachelor degree. For more information about Student Financing you can send email to siswabangsa@sampoernafoundation.org. If you happen to know someone who wants to continue their study to college and want to apply to Sampoerna School of Business, you can get the application form in our website www.sampoernafoundation.org. Don’t let the dreams of children ends just because they don’t have money to go to college.

Today, Mr. Frog having his birthday !!! Last night I called him and asked what present he wants on his birthday. He just answered, "Not much,,, Hope this year I can live more healthily. Not only me, but also my family, and you too."

He planned to pick me up today and go somewhere to eat. The best part hangout with him, we always looking for the delicious street food, not mall. So today is no different than the other days. We won't go to the mall. Where we eat, I don't know. Depends on where we found a nice spot hehehe. Can't wait!

Happy birthday, Mr. Frog. Hope everything you wish will come true...

I never expected that my work life will be THESE dynamic. About 1,5 month I'm here, lots of changes within days, sometimes hours. I'm adapting since the first day I joined until now. I realized it's an ongoing process. But not this kind of change.

When we had team meeting in Starbucks, our team got a shocking update. Can't tell you what it is, project-related hehehe. We were speechless, then thinking about our next moves in this team for our project in the future. While we were discussing the strategies, I got another lesson from today. Whatever happen, the show must go on. We can't stop in the middle of something. All changes, all obstacles, we must face it no matter what. From those things, we can learn something to improve ourself.

Yeah it's an old crap that maybe some famous motivators always told us in their show. But it never outdated. AT ALL. You will find it everywhere you go, everywhere you work. Adapt fast, because the show must go on,,, *sigh*
