I am dreaming to be an auditor since I was in senior high school. My teacher told me how challenging and pleasant works of her as an auditor.
And then, when I was in University, I've got a brilliant lecturer for three subjects of Auditing: Auditing 1, Auditing 2, and Auditing Laboratory. She worked for PWC when she was younger and single. She sometimes told her students in the class her experiences in PWC. I am impressed and amazed. Now she is a head of finance at my campus, Perbanas.
She and all of her experience made my obsession to become auditor stronger.
Story goes on. Every year, all of CIMB Niaga scholarship recipients, like me, have an annual gathering. And once, the motivator of the gathering in 2010 (if I am not mistaken), said that all of us should have THE BEST DREAM to be dreamed, don't ever negotiate in determining the dream. So, I was rethinking about my dream to be an auditor. It's not "best" enough. And I remember one of my best lecturer's quote: "good is enemy of best". So, I just reproduce my dream: "I want to have my own super business: the first International-recognized of a local public accountant firm"
Hmm. Dream is free. So, why you don't just dream The Best Dream you can think...
Next. In my last semester, my Auditing Seminar lecturer is a partner! She has her own accounting firm. I really admire her. And she has a CPA. I should be better than her. I believe I can.
Okay, after I'm graduated from Perbanas, I have a chance to have training in a medium-leveled Public Accounting Firm, it's KAP HMR. My another lecturer works there. The training is only for two months, but it's very useful, although it's not quite different from what I've already learned in Auditing Laboratory subject in campus.
And, finally, we reached the final point of this writing: I worked for Mazars! This is my first work and it's an internationally accounting firm! Okay, I'll tell you about my experience at Mazars in a semi-poem writing below:
Alhamdulillah…
I am lucky.
I should realize that.
I am lucky for having a wonderful two-month, the most unforgettable moment ever, here.
It will not be the same anymore, I know.
But, at least, I already experienced that.
Alhamdulillah…
I am lucky.
I should realize that.
I have the loveliest manager here: smart, patience, and high motivated.
She gave me many chances and trust to learn many things here.
For the short two-months here, I already conducted Understanding & Walkthrough, Physical Count of Inventory, Balance Confirmation, and Substantive Test for Cash-Taxes-Prepayment-Operating Expenses- Inventory.
I will get more if I stay longer, I know.
But, if I cannot be grateful for what I already earned, I know God won’t give anymore to me.
Alhamdulillah…
I am lucky.
I should realize that.
I have pleasant work mates in my batch.
It’s really surprising that we can be good friends although we only have really a short time to meet in office in these two months because we are assigned to different clients.
It will be nice if we can be promoted together in this appraisal period, I know.
But I know God know which one is nicer for me and my career.
Alhamdulillah…
I am lucky.
I should realize that.
I’ve got nice seniors in my team here.
For the short two months, I am already assigned for three different teams in three different clients, and I am also assigned for four different Physical Inventory Count teams, and for those all I’ve got really nice seniors.
I learned many things from them.
I will get chance to be like them if I stay here.
But maybe God want me to be more than just like them.
Alhamdulillah…
I am lucky.
I really need to realize that, so I will not be sad.
I do not have to be sad, or even feel hurt.
I know it will not be the same anymore… but it will be better, for me, hopefully… it should be better… it must be better…
Alhamdulillah Ya Rob.
Thanks to Pak Sebastien Gautier for nicely accepting me to work here for two months.
Thanks to Ruth Mutiara, for being the best manager ever, here.
Thanks to James Kenneth Venta, for being my manager also and the training.
Thanks to Luisito Gallardo for the memorable interview and all the knowledge you share in all trainings I attended.
Thanks to Fernando Reyes, also for the memorable interview.
Thanks to Siena Rosell Cajucom and Melissa Paz Murillo for the trainings.
Thanks to Pak Tjiendra and Pak Handoko for short memorable discussion.
Thanks to Kak Anggia, Mbak Susi, Kak Layna, and Kak Edu for transferring the knowledge to me.
Thanks to David, Fahry, Elo, Agung, Karin, Icha, Andra for being nice team mates.
Thanks to Barry, Panji, and Fredy for being helpful friends in our batch.
And, finally, thanks to Rahma, Mira, Desy, Aggun, Indah (I mention your name here although we are in different batch, haha), Dila, and Diva for being really nice and unforgettable friends for me…
Thanks also for making my goodbye harder, really…

A Tribute to Mazars
Save Our Earth
(this my writing is the 1st winner in The British Institute - TBI Writing Competition)
Imagine these conditions: dry land without any trees is everywhere, number of skin cancer cases increases, people cannot go out without wearing jacket although it is a sunny day, number of active volcano is higher than before, floods are everywhere, there is only big island left (say goodbye to many famous beautiful small islands), and there is snow in tropical countries on the night while the day is very hotter than before. Do you think all of them are only hyperbola fantasy? I do not think so. If we still do not give more attention to the earth now, they are possible to happen in the future. They are not only fantasy!
I am not scaring you all, but usually people will not start doing some action if they do not suffer the cause first. So, imagine that you can see the future, and what you see is more or less same as the conditions I told you in the beginning. It is possible, you know, because there are many evidences exist around us that you actually can find out sooner if you are more curious about the earth. The first evidence is the numerous of weird and horrible disasters. In Indonesia, some of us suffered tsunami in Aceh, terrible earthquake in Yogyakarta and Padang, and mud disaster in Sidoarjo. Moreover, there are apocalyptic hurricanes in USA, big forest fires in Australia, and terrible floods in Nepal. The next evidence is number of diseases such as malaria, cholera, and asthma that are increasing. Those diseases are influenced by the global warming. Asthma comes because if air pollution, malaria is spread by the warmer condition of world, and cholera is caused by water pollution. Furthermore, you can feel by yourself that sun is becoming hotter. At last, final evidence is the increase of extinct animal number.
It’s time to do some actions. You should not think about some hard actions like using environmentally friendly products, especially the electronic machine such as computer, refrigerator, washing machine, and dryer. Some of you maybe still cannot afford them for this moment. So, let’s start thinking about simple activities that everyone surely can do those. I’ll give you some examples of simple activities. First, stop throwing rubbish everywhere, although it’s only a candy wrapper. You also can begin to advise people that you meet in the street. Stop them from polluting the earth! However, it needs some courage from you. Then, stop using plastic as long as possible. For example, you can bring your own bag when you go shopping so you do not need the plastic bag from the shop anymore.
The next simple activity is avoiding cigarette. I know it is hard for some cigarette addicts to stop smoking instantly, but please think about the future. Furthermore, you can start taking bicycle or mass transportation instead of motorcycle or car. I do not forbid you to have a car or motorcycle. You still can have them as long as you want. I only ask you to do not use them for daily or routine activities, like for going to school, campus, or office every day. Moreover, reduce the use of paper. You can ask your teacher or lecturer whether you can print the assignment in two sides of paper. If they allow you to do it, you can tell to your classmates to do same thing. Then, the last example of simple activity is saving energy. Unplug the cable of electronic appliances whenever you stop working with them. Drive your vehicle 55 mph instead of 65 mph because it can reduce emissions.
So, you now can choose two kind of future: the bad or the good one. Do not wait until the disaster comes to you to start being green. Do it right now! Remember, we only have one world. You cannot move to another new world after break the old one.

Why Do They Often Talk About Him?
Mr. Septo, my English lecturer at Perbanas Asian Banking Finance and Informatics Institute, is a very famous person at my campus. Most of students and lecturers know him. Especially for the students, he is an unforgettable person. They like talking about Mr. Septo all the time. I think it is caused by the difficulties that they meet to pass Mr. Septo’s class. The difficulties are the high standards that Mr. Septo determines to pass his class, the discipline of Mr. Septo, and his unique way to motivate others.
Mr. Septo determines high standards for students who want to pass his class. The students must be talkative in the class. They should ask if they do not understand his explanation. On the other hand, they are expected to answer any question from him. Mr. Septo doesn’t like if they just keep quiet, whether they understand or not. Furthermore, the students must do the project in English For Academic Purpose class as Mr. Septo’s instructions. He wants the students’ writing becomes more organized one. He pays attention to the structure of the paragraph very well. In fact, most of students consider either being talkative or writing with well structure is very difficult. It is not strange that they are worried about failure to pass Mr. Septo’s class.
The second difficulties is the discipline of Mr. Septo. The students must come to the class on time. In addition, they are ordered to bring an oxford dictionary every class meeting. Not only that, but the students also must submit all papers, works, and projects on time. If they are late to submit the tasks, their score will be minus 20 points. Meanwhile, if they come late or do not bring the dictionary, they will get a punishment. That’s why Mr. Septo is called a disciplinarian.
The last, Mr. Septo has an unique way to motivate students. He likes saying “See you next semester” to remind the students to study harder or they will not pass his class. Moreover, Mr. Septo sometimes says something that may hurt students’ feeling, but actually he wants the students realize their mistakes and make changes to improve their ability in English. He cares about his students very much. The good students will not feel down with whatever he says, instead they will be motivated to study harder.
The high standards to pass, the discipline, and the unique way to motivate are the difficulties that the students meet in Mr. Septo’s class. It is not strange that they like talking about Mr. Septo and these difficulties all the time. I hope they also discuss about the way to pass, and practice what they had discussed. The suitable words for them is “Talk Less, Does More”. However, in the class they should follow these words: “Talk More, Get More”.

STAY (I Missed You)
I recently like a song with title 'STAY (I Missed You), performed by New Found Glory featuring Lisa Loeb. This song is originally performed by Lisa Loeb from the movie 'Reality Bites'. I am wondering what kind of movie it is. Hmm, I should find out about the movie soon. Anyway, I LIKE THE LYRIC SO MUCH 
This is the lyric:
This is the lyric:
You say I only hear what I want to
You say I talk so all the time, so
And I thought what I felt was simple
And I thought that I don't belong
And now that I am leaving
Now I know that I did something wrong
'cause I missed you, yeah, yeah, I missed you.
And you say I only hear what I want to...
I don't listen hard, I don't pay attention to the distance
That you're running to anyone, anywhere
I don't understand if you really care
I'm only hearing negative... no, no, no
So I turned the radio on, I turned the radio up
And this woman was singing my song...
The lover's in love, and the others run away
The lover is crying 'cause the other won't stay
Some of us hover when we weepin' for the other
Who was dying since the day they were born
Well, well, this is not that
I think that I'm throwing but I'm thrown.
And I thought I'd live forever
But now I'm not so sure
You try to tell me that I'm clever
But that won't take me anyhow, or anywhere with you
You said that I was naive and I thought that I was stronger
I thought, "Hey, I can leave, I can leave."
Oh, but now I know that I was wrong
'cause I missed you, yeah, I missed you
You said, "You caught me 'cause you want me
and one day you'll let me go,
You try to give away a keeper, or keep me
'cause you know you're just so scared to lose."
And you say, "STAY."
You say I only hear what I want to

Did they HEAR me?
I have been very irritated lately. Do you want to know why? Why? Okay, I’ll tell you: THEY DIDN’T HEAR ME!!! They no paid attention to what I SAID!!!
Actually, it’s really tiring!!!
And, I’ve become madder because it is not only happened once, but many times!!!
Grrrrrrr…….
Why they did it to me? To the most sensitive girl in the Milky Way… why?? Why???
Huhu…
It was happened for the first time at the meeting of the committee of RAMADHAN EVENT at my campus. I have explained about the consumption matter for the first event of our agenda. I HAVE EXPLAINED why our Student Activity Manager was angry to us. I thought I’ve explained clearly and completely so all of them have understood the matter. But I WAS WRONG!! When the meeting has moved to the next subject and my friend unintentionally talked about the consumption matter once again (only she and I that exactly knew the consumption matter), everyone in the room said: ‘Oh, I see…’
Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!
Did they hear me?? I just talked about it a few seconds ago!
I was really mad!!!
Was my voice too low? Was my explanation not clear? Am I a bad person? Am I an unimportant subject to be heard?
Then, the second time was happened in the journey back from the Bellagio Apartment and Mall, when the T-Club had a birthday party of the Senpai at Tomodachi Restaurant. Tadayoshi was making a joke by asking about the advertisement of Trenz Biscuit, where the mannequins are climbing the ITC Building to get the ‘Trenz’ at the top. I wondered if it was the first time for Six to see it. If yes, how come? The advertisement has been there since the building exists! So, I said: “it was there since long times ago, it is only mannequin!”
HOWEVER, you know what one of them said a few seconds later?
“Oh my god! Tadayoshi, they are just mannequins!”
That person said it with the expression as if she/he just saw it for the first time!
Agh, agh, agh! I was tired; my heart was a little bit broken!
It’s time to make‘revenge’!
You know what; I’ve planned to be the gold one: SILENT! Silent means gold. It is true, isn’t it? I hope I can spend my most hours to write or read, not to listen to whatever they said and make a reply that will be just ignored by them!!!
I am tired to be an ignored person!
And, the last, I just realized, there is no THEY! There is only SHE! Yeah, SHE is the one who always ignore what I said (or doesn’t hear??)!
I don’t know why, but when I think about her now, I find a fact. She made me mad many times lately!
What’s wrong actually?
Ugh, I REALLY LOVE THE PEACE, but I also cannot stand with this situation any longer!!!
GOD, HELP ME!
Actually, it’s really tiring!!!
And, I’ve become madder because it is not only happened once, but many times!!!
Grrrrrrr…….

My Idea...
Saturday noon, I was trying to take a nap, but I couldn’t. Saturday always be my laziest day. I sleep for four times along the day... However, that time I couldn’t close my eyes easily...
Why?
Something in my head, I couldn’t turn it off...
Before trying to sleep, I read my third INSIDE UNITED (Bahasa Version), an official magazine of the greatest club all of the world, ho ho ho... Yep, Manchester UNITED, I mean.
Apparently, the idea that I got from my reading continued, getting clearer and stronger... That’s why I couldn’t sleep. So, I got up from my bed and turned my laptop on. Then, I wrote this.
Yeah, ladies and gentlemen, I GOT A FANTASTIC IDEA!!!
Fantastic for me, ehm.. ehm...
I want to apply for a job to INSIDE UNITED INDONESIA...
Actually, I just want to do something real to support my beloved team. I found that INSIDE UNITED still have many mistakes in spelling. I can help them to correct it. I can be a REVISER! Wow, it sounds interesting for me. Yeah, I want it! I want it!
So, don’t waste any time. I have to look for my notes about APPLYING A JOB, and I must collect everything that can support me, prove that I’m qualified for a Reviser. Or, if it’s possible, I want to translate some pages too.
Wish me luck, everybody!
My GPA
Hiks.. Hiks..
My new GPA is lower than that I expect. And there is a bad trend: my GPA is always decreasing... I'm so disappointed. I promise I will stop the trend next semester. Therefore, I will only take 18 sks next semester.
Save Palestine
I'm crying
, my heart is broken
, and I become sadder 
because I can do nothing except praying and writing this...
I'm nobody, I'm not a judge, I have nothing, so let God take revenge againts 'them'...
They can say anything, but God knows who the villains are
...They (2) can do nothing, although they said they will keep the world peace, but in fact they are liar and loser...
So, let God take revenge againts 'them'
...I support Palestine, always, forever and ever...
Save Palestine, save the world
...
Good Sees You Everywhere
A teacher had many good students in his class but had particular regard and high respect for one of them. Some of the students one day asked the teacher the reason for this. In reply he said, "I shall tell you tomorrow."
The next day, he handed to each of those students one live chicken. He asked them to take the chicken to a place where they would not be seen by anyone and then slaughter them. After a while, they returned with their chicken duly slaughtered. But his favourite student came back with his chicken alive.
The teacher asked him why he had not slaughtered it. He replied, "You haad asked me to go to a place where nobody would see me. I tried hard to find a place where God Almighty coukd not see me. But I failed. Everywhere went I was sure that God could see me and I could not hide from Him. So I could nit carry out your instruction.
On hearing this, the teacher turned to the other students and remarked, "The reason why I respect this student more is because of his constant awareness of the existence of God who can always see him, no matter where he is. Consequently, he does not commit any sin."
