Smile~

Hi all.. the IELTS results are out already!! *Yay!* But anyway, too bad, it wasn't as good as I want it to be. *sigh*. But the results are not bad.. still bearable. (at least, it gives me sufficient mark to apply for TR). :P

Ehm.. there is one song from "Glee" episodes that has been echoing in my mind for the last couple of days. The song is "Smile"

Here are the lyrics:

SMILE ~

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking.
When there are clouds in the sky
you'll get by.

If you smile through your pain and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile-

If you just smile

Light up your face with gladness,
Hide every trace of sadness.
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying.
You'll find that life is still worthwhile-
If you just smile.

:) SMILE!

say I!! Say E!! SAy L!!! SAY T!!! SaY S!!! IELTS!!!

Hi all! :D

Well well well.. It is amazing that one's mood can change considerably just because of a simple thing..
In my case, I'm suppa duppa happy because my parents are here for a week! *yayyy* ^____^ Furthermore, I'm staying over at my sister's place together with my parents... syalalala.. It always feels good to get together with our family members. hehe..

...

On the other hand, I also feel down because..

Ehm.. Some of you might not know, but I had an IELTS test last Saturday from 8-4pm. My IELTS test is now over, and I'm waiting for the results to come out.. Waiting for the results is always nerve wrecking; especially when we feel that we haven't done enough to get good marks.

Why do I feel this way? To explain this, it's better to give you a list of the unexpected.
Like:
1. I thought "littering" means throwing away trash. Turns out, it actually means not throwing the trash to the bin. So I wrote: "...should provide more trash bin to encourage tourists to litter to the bin."
2. I've spent around 2 minutes just to decide whether I should use 2 or 1 "g" and use 1 or 2 "t" to write cigarette which by the end, I didn't use this word at all.
3. Although my time management for the first part of the writing part was good was good (20 mins), I spent 20 minutes from 40 minutes left just to write an essay that I'd eventually erase as it wasn't very well structured.
4. So I quickly wrote a totally new essay in the last 20 minutes although the marks allocated for this one doubles the first part..
5. As you may have known, my speaking pace is pretty quick.. So, as I answered the interviewer, I ended up speaking for only 1 minute 15 seconds or so when I was supposed to talk for 2 minutes. (For normal people, the dot points that I've prepared for the answer should be sufficient for a 2 minutes speech).
6. My mind went totally blank when I was asked: "Office equipment may be hazardeous for health. Explain the effects of office equipment to employees' health."
7. I didn't realize the effect of not carefully closing the door with a note "hazardeous closing door" on it. Hence, the door slammed very loudly and echoed in building 2, UTS, as I closed the door. A middle east guy across the hall answered me as I apologize to the interviewer inside the room.
(PS: I opened the door again just to apologize.) This guy was like "Ah, don't worry. It's always like that!" but still, I feel bad and a bit worried that I would give a bad impression to my interviewee. Oh, her name is Rachel by the way. :) Her expression didn't change much during the conversation.
8. Thank God, that's all that I can remember for now. Haha.. or else, I would regret more.. :P

Given the reasons above, I am pretty nervous about the my IELTS results.. It would be good for my resume if I have a high IELTS score.. I wish I wish I wish.. *crossed fingers*

Anyway, another announcement is..

I WILL BE GRADUATING IN OCTOBER!!! Woohooooooooo!!!

The results of my final two subjects are out already.. Thank God, both results are pretty good.. :) (at least, compared to my other semesters, this one is better) :P Hence, I hereby declare that I will be graduating in October as I have fulfilled the University's requirements to graduate. Sekian and danke! :P

Pesan Moral: We have done our part, and let God do the rest. And, I ammmmmm GrAduaATINGGG!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D *peace*

On.. and on.. and on.. and on.. ~

Yea yea yea yea yea.. I know! It's been a while I didn't even remember that I have this blog! lol. Sorry for that. :P

Like usual, life goes on and time flies like a roller coaster. Things around us change in just a blink of an eye *ehem.. I'm being hyperbolic here. hohhohoho* but, seriously, without me noticing, 4 years have passed and my student life is now over.

In my high school years, I've always thought that I would be extremely happy once I'm done with my study. Turns out, I freaked out in my last month of Uni. I was like "It's going to be over SOON!!" Then, in all of a sudden, here I am. All done with my bachelor degree (except if I've failed the finals, then it would be a different story. But, hopefully not.. *finger crossed*).

And now? There is a pressure to do this and that and all of the other stuff that is needed to be done for my PR application. haha.. but, I have to start with my TR first. Feel a bit hopeless here to get a permanent job to sponsor me. But, I've just started and I can't stop now. No, not yet.

People started to leave one by one to go back to their country. And some people are moving out state to work. *arghhhhh* In the end, it will be pretty quiet over here. *sigh*

Anyway, enough with the mellow mode.

Today, I went to the police station to do a criminal record check. But, turns out that the officer told me to get one from my country, then give it to them so they can send both records to the immigration office (apparently, they won't send it to me). So, I walked to the embassy hoping that I can get a certified copy of my finger prints over there. So, I checked.

andddd.. tadaaaaa.. I CAN DO IT THERE!!

And from this point on, I'll use Indo. hohohohoho..
Begitu nyampe ke consulat, ada tiang pencet2 buat ambil nomer.. Dengan pede, gw deketin itu tiang, dan milih salah satu option yang ada. Tapi, apparently itu mesin agak dodol.. Di pencet pelan2 ga mau respon. So, gw coba ngeraba2 barang kali klo ada tombol lain yang kudu di pencet. Tp ga ketemu jg.

So, berbekalkan perasaan menyerah, gw pergi ke bagian informasinya dan tanya2..
Setelah tanya2, si ibu pergi ke mesin itu, trus pencet dan entah gimana punya cara, nomornya KELUAR!! @.@ kaget.. kaget.. Jd, abis dapet nomernya, gw duduk disamping.. Oh, btw, ternyata mesinnya gw bisa di lembutin.. mesinnya kudu agak di pukul dikit biar bisa jawab. haha..

lumayan lama si.. ampe akhirnya, gw pergi ke satu ibu2 (yang memang kerjaannya ngurusin cap jari) buat minta formulir. Si ibu baik si.. jawabnya ramah dan pelan2 gitu.. Jd hepi d. hehe.. terus, pas gw isi2 formnya, baru sadar kalau butuh nomor KTP. So, it went like this:

Me: oh, sim jg ya? hmmm.. *checking*. ok.lalalalala.. ktp ku.. *bongkar2 dompet*

...
hah??? KTPku dimana?? *mulai panik, bongkar dompet ampe ke slot2 nya satu persatu*
*langsung panas* waks!!! DIMANA KTPKu??? arghhH!!! hmmhhh..


yah.. inti kata, gw bingung banget KTP gw ilang.. gw sampe sempet mikir, apa kecolongan orang.. atau jatuh.. atau pokoke something bad happened to my KTP. So, at the end, gw putuskan buat pulang. Jd, gw tanya lagi si ibu yang tadi buat double check aja..

Me: "permisi bu, mau tanya ya.. jadi ini semua formnya harus diisi ya?"
bu berjilbab:*sibuk ngurusin dokumen2* "iya.. semua lah itu formnya harus diisi" *ngestamp2 ama tulis2 dan tanda tangan*

dan tiba2..

bu berjilbab: "Aahhhh!!!!!! Sh*t salah stamp itu sekarang! Aduh! orang lagi kerja... di tanya tanya. jadi salah. Sh*t laaaarr.." * muka gahar ngeliatin gw dan tangannya uda naik2*

Me: *salah tingkah* aduh bu.. maapp.. ga bermaksuddddd.. maap bu..

bu berjilbab: *masih seru ngedumel2 karena dia salah kasi stamp ke dokumen orang*

jd, gw pulang lah ya..

dan gitu keluar dari konjen, gw baru sadar..

ternyata..

KTP GW ADA DISANAAAAA!!! Di petugas luarnya.. soalnya kan kita harus kasi KTP kita ke mereka buat ID kan.. dan gw lupa sama sekali klo gw ninggalin KTP gw disitu sebelumnya sampe pas mau pulang tiba2 badan gw reflek jalan ke pos nya (dah kebiasaan si. haha.. jd ga perlu mikir lagi buat kesono ambil ID) :P

o well.. jd ga enak hati sama si ibu. Besok gw kudu ketemu sama si ibu lagi buat ngurusin cap jempol lagi!! semoga dia lupa muka gw d.. ganti model rambut ahhhhhh.. :P tp berasa guilty sih.. *hiiiii*

OK! Lesson learnt. Never ever tanya2 kebanyakan pertanyaan ke orang yang lagi kerja.. *sigh*

uda gitu it happened ama orang yang bakal crucial banget buat ngurusin cap jempol gw lg!! arghhH!!

Pesan Moral: Jangan kebanyakan tanya ama orang yang lagi sibuk.. :P
