STAN 2010 Reunion - Class of 2005: Unity in Diversity

Early last month was very great, i believe for everyone, especially for me. It was very hectic, exhausting yet amazing for me and most of my friends who come from far away to enjoy the moment of togetherness in STAN 2010 Reunion. Let's say there were Niko from Kuningan, Ersa from Lhokseumawe, Widyo from Jambi, Adjie from Tanjung Balai Karimun, Adit from far away northern part of our country -Tahuna and even Titis who got away from chaos in Tarakan, if i keep mentioning names then the list will be very long. But not only for us coming from that far, the euphoria was also felt by those who had been waiting for us to come (especially the batch-committee) lets see.. Harun who had been busy dealing with a lot of thing; Ilmi, who still spare some time before going to Jogja, and Hendy who dealt with T-Shirt orders; Rima with the sound system and such; Nila and Ninit for other stuff related with the stand, A' Bedur with the IKANAS (iSTAN) Congress; and there were a lot more i might forgot to write.

For some of us, it was really a moment of re-union, time to meet and have a long chit-chat with old friends we haven't met for around 1-2 years, time to talk and laugh about silly things happened back then in college, time to catch up latest news from each other, time to tell stories bout ourselves and people around us, yes that was fun, so much fun!

In the other hand, for most of us, it was also the time to get to know each other, even for the first time for some people. How is it possible? Well, it is not impossible when you are in a batch consisting of 6 majors - around 52 classes - with each classes consisting of 35 - 40 students, who went to different buildings and joined different extra activities/clubs. Knowing half of the batch is already awesome..

-STAN Batch 2005-

Well, in short, everybody had a great time, despite of the heavy rain.. There were times when we all worried about the electricity (since water and electric current are not best friend) but then again it turned out to be okay. When the rain calmed down, we started another happy-go-singing-and-dancing-together. Various music starting from dangdut to folk-songs to pop were played in our booth. With that much hustle and bustle happening in our booth, no wonder we got so many attention from other seniors. On the evening stage session, there were band performances. The last song we sung "Kau Tak Akan Terganti" more or less represented our feeling at that time, a feeling for our friendship, and all of us really proud to say that we are STAN 2005!

Lets make a bigger crowd on the next reunion!

Recently i do a lot of blogwalking, especially on Moslem fashion-blogs. There are apparently plenty of Indonesian as well as foreign Moslem bloggers. Anyway when i follow blogs i usually just use the Google Friend Connect, but then again this time i decide to try out something new. Bloglovin. Yup, this is actually an experiment, so i'm gonna see how its going later.

Forgive and Forget

Several months ago my friend send me a note like this:

this is you bio on twitter: "@ramadhani_a: loves chocolate, comic and friend" and i still want to be your friend

We're kinda not talk to each other for around four months, he really got on my nerve at that time. But finally i think its the time to forgive and to forget the wrong doings before, realizing all of us just imperfect human beings that can make all the mistake in the world. And as the matter of fact, i am not a person who can keep my anger and rage to other people for a long time..

Anyway, to think that i don't wanna be treated the same way made me feel awful of it. How shallow minded i was, keeping my disappointment and anger for such a long time. I should have just talked to him, expressed all the feeling at that time, reconciled, let the problem settled and left nothing behind.


So here we are, back as friends..

Farewell

At first i thought having your boss transferred to other city wouldn't feel this way. Apparently i was wrong..

Last week 3 bosses in my department got transferred to Jakarta, Bandung and Semarang. As already predicted since they already been here for four years. Everyone was happy since they're transferred to better places. Last week was full with Farewell Parties and present hunting. Finally this week all of them left. Two days ago, Pak Siswantoro went to Jakarta, yesterday i and several friends also accompany Pak Ramadani to the airport, he was leaving for Semarang and today Pak Yulfian is on the way to Bandung.

Probably i don't spend time with them as much as other colleagues do, but as the matter of fact working together for nearly 1 year makes me feel close with them. They teach me a lot of things just like father but at the same time treating me as a friend as well.

As they left, memories remain. Good bye our beloved fathers, never forget us..
Hopefully i will have another opportunity to work with them in a better place.
