Setahun tepat pengumuman memperoleh Beasiswa IFP

 Tidak terasa hari ini tepat satu tahun sejak pengumuman saya lolos beasiswa IFP.  Saat buka notifikasi FB,  tadi teman saya, Winarto, memberikan komentar ke status saya tanggal 16 Agustus 2010 "Hore...akhirnya tercapai juga impian ke luar negeri...siap2 ni mengurus semuanya!". Katanya, "tepat satu tahun pengumuman beasiswa" . . .

 Waktu memang berjalan begitu cepat dan seolah tidak terasa lama. Setahun berlalu: enam bulan belajar di LBI UI, dan 4 bulan belajar di CES Maastricht University. Besok, kebetulan bertepatan dengan peringatah HUT RI ke-66,  saya akan menerima sertifikat kelulusan short course Bahasa Inggris dan Academic Skill. Dan keesokan harinya, saya akan menuju ke Universitas Wageningen untuk memulai study master Environmental Science: Energy Technology.

The last day PAT Class

After four months tired with IELTS, study skill and computer classes, now is the last day of the PAT April Class. It was a wonderful experience to be able to become a student at Maastricht University, even just for a short period.

Here, not only  I learned about the academic, but also how to adapt with new life environment and friends. What can I say now is: Thank a million for all teachers that was taught us (Rebecca Cooke, Kevin Richardson, Annemarie Simons , Kristine Sorensen, Andrea Marques, Laura Sarino, Hannerieke van der Boom). See you on the next occasion...

Wonderful Result

Yesterday at around 11 am, when we were busy to do an SPSS and Excel exercise in computer class with Andrea marques, our teacher, I saw Wardah stood up on the corner and raised her hands to God. I was confused and started to ask: What's going on? She said: "IELTS result was issued and we are sent from sms by Aude, CES staff". Unfortunately, I forgot to bring my handphone at that time.

Immediately, I started to search the result online through the IELTS official website- actually I had tried to find it since last night- but I still didn't have any result. It hasn't been published yet. I didn't lost my idea. I sent an email to Aude that told I forgot to bring my phone and asked the result and continued my exercise.

Dear Aude,

Emil

About 5 minutes later, a notice message from my g-mail appeared on the right-top my screen, it was from Aude. With a palpitated heart, I opened the mail.

L: 7.5 R: 8.5 W: 6.0 S: 7.0

Overall: 7.5

Well done!!

THANKS GOD.... It was an amazing result that I ever got. I was very happy because every single effort made since I came to Maastricht was paid off. It's 1,5 higher than my result in Jakarta.

However, the most important is I don't need to book my return ticket to Indonesia now but next year or two year later. And I say "Wageningen, I'm coming"
