My Future Desires

Now, I am a student in Sanata Dharma University and I’m registered in PBI study program. Although I am still in second semester, I have some dreams. I have some desires when I graduate from this program study. I willing to become a worker in a big cruise, become an English teacher in senior high school, and build a simple home for my family and me.
I realize that become an English teacher or work in a big cruise are not as simple as I think. I know that I do need improve my English capability deeper and seriously. I need more practice to develop my capability. It is not simple process, but it takes long time to make my English well. It’s like a journey to somewhere. Therefore, I chose PBI as my choice in studying. Hopefully, this program study is helpful me to reach my dreams.
In my priority, become a worker in a big cruise is first thing that I want to do after I graduate from PBI. I want to experience work in a cruise. May be after 2 or 3 years, I am going to become an English teacher and earn enough money to build my own home for my family and me. I believe that I can actualize my desires with my high spirit and be a persistent girl.

My New Family

I live in Kartasura – a small city in Central Java. In there I join in youth commission in my church. It is called Bahtera. Every Saturday evening we always gather in our church to have religion service (in Indonesian we recognize with ‘Persekutuan’ or ‘mudika’). It is hold for about 2 hours, from 5 p.m. until 7 p.m. After my religion service finish, my friends and I always spend our time to share everything we want to share or just kidding with some jokes. People usually think that what we do is nothing. Actually, it’s very important for us to make our friendship closer and closer. Even from this activity that unimportant for others, we can get our new family in Bahtera. Unrealized, we have become a new family in Jesus’ Kingdom.
Frankly, Saturday is one of three days I like the most in a week. They are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Why? It’s caused only in these days I can meet my lovely friends and laugh with them. As you know that in Jogja I live in my boarding house, meet and laugh with them is valuable moment for me.
Every Sunday, i have the same activity -- meet and gather with my friends -- but i have to teach sunday school first. I always leave my home at 6.40 a.m. and teach sunday school until 8.30 a.m. After it, my friends and I always meet in Pastori (our base camp) for enjoy our time. Beside talking or sharing, we also sing and playing guitar together. Can you imagine how happy I am??? Usually, we gather until lunch time about 12 p.m. or 12.30 p.m.
Some people think that we just wasting the time, but we are love this moment.

Easter Celebration


Hi friends.
In this occasion, I want to talk about my preparation for the Easter celebration of children comission in my church. This was really exciting.
Preparation for the Easter celebration was about one week before the D-day. We prepared a short drama about the crucifixion of our Lord Jesus and praise music practice. Everyone was so busy with their respective duties. I helped to prepare the drama. Actually, I became the worship leader in this event, but my partner should be a keyboardist. Therefore, I must be willing to exchange duties with my friends.
During one week of practice, we tried hard to memorize every scene very well. Initially, it was quite difficult to memorize and performed the play well. However,we all could be resolved because our desire to show best. Finally on the last day of training, we were all getting excited to show our drama and hope everything was good. I was very pleased with these my activities.
On Friday afternoon, we all made the decorations and all properties used for drama. There were some people who made the garden of Gethsemane, the cross, crown of thorns and caves. Everything done with joy.
On D-day - Sunday, we all managed to appear and perform plays that well (we think). That's one story about my Easter celebration this year. Wasn't it interesting? What about your Easter celebration?
