First of all, I’d like to say sorry for not updating this blog. Hehe. Actually, since I started the activities in my university (Yeah! Now, I’m not a student! But a university student!), I’ve been really busy with all orientation things. Like what other students did, they had orientation on university scale, faculty scale, and finished with major scale. I just finished the first two of them. I got many things; friends, spirit of life, life skills, etc. The most remarkable thing is I learn to be more respect with social.

On Faculty orientation, we divided into several groups. Each group consist of 10-12 people. But, unfortunately although, I have 12 people on the list, but just 7 people who actively involved. But, It’s okay! I enjoyed with them. We named this group with “Garuda 52″. Garuda like a symbol of spirit of nationalism. Then 52? that’s the lucky number that we got from the committee.  One of the task that we had, was creating a social project. We only had 1 day for discussing the project, including preparing the proposal. Finally, after debating a bit.. we selected going to hospital on independence day.

Every 17th August, Indonesia celebrates it’s Independence day. Usually, many people, especially the children celebrate the day through held some events. Such as art festival, traditional games, etc. The children are really enjoy the day. But, we realize, not all the children in this country can do the things as the others do. One of them is the hospitalized children.

That’s why, we went to one of hospital in Depok, West Java.  We shared the fun, gave them quiz, and of course, distributed the prize. Yeah. Maybe not more than 15 children who joined this event. But, we belive that, through being “act locally”, we did something!!!
