Happiness of March

March.

It has been a year, I've been a lecturer at one of the university in Makassar. I've experienced many things 'bout lecturer life, especially as YOUNG lecturer. Being a lecturer is different with being a teacher. As a lecturer, we have to not only teach, but also conduct a research and do public service.There are also other activities such as regular meeting, general lecture, seminar, etc. And, we're expected to attend or being a participant of the events.

For every week, I come to campus twice a week, mostly. But, for those two days, I usually stay all day long at campus. At campus, there's a room for us as a lecturer, so I can use it as break-time spot. I don't have to go anywhere, anymore. In sum, lecturer life is not as busy as other professions.

So far, I enjoy the profession.

There's only one thing that I always feel sorry about. It concern with "money".

Honestly, everytime I'm asked about 'how much salary I get fo' being a lecturer'. I can't answer it directly. Why??? Because it's something that I never imagine and can't state. Not also about "How Much?", but also about "How Often?"

That's the problem! My problem,,,,exactly!

When it cross in my mind, sometimes I feel sad, shy and vain. Seems like I'm just an unemployment and have no capability to this profession. But, later....I think, I have to be patient. Maybe It's still not the time fo' me to get it. Maybe I'm still expected to struggle more and more.

And, Alhamdulillah!

It's TRUE!

You'll get it in the best time.

And, this month is the time.

At March 10, 2017. I got the invitation to come to sign as Fixed-Lecturer four days later. I signed at March 14. In the early morning of the day, I dropped by to BSM to make a new Bank Account as payment account. Next, it's collected in the university treasurer.

After waitin' for about two weeks, we're at the end of the month. Unexpectedly, I got message notification from BSM Center that informed that I've got debit in my account. I saw it after one of my friends asked me to check my mobile phone. And, YES. I got it!

ALHAMDULILLAH......!!!

Spend Weekend in Sunset Rumah 40 Villa & Resto, Boneoge

Midday View of Sunset Rumah 40 Villa & Resto, Boneoge - Donggala Time flies so fast. I’ve been staying here for more than 2 years. Yeah, I’m not the local here. I come and stay here for work. If you ask me, “What do you do for a living?”, the answer is “I’m in teaching.” Being a practioner in Education like lecturer, I’m full of works. Many others think that lecturer will be on holiday on the semester break, but FYI it’s not happened on the reality. Semester break is only for students, not lecturers. Final test correction, BKD report, lesson plan, and research proposal are to do lists of lecturers in January. To deal with those activities, of course, I have to be smart in time management. So, I can do relaxation at the end of the month, before coming to the next semester. Unexpectedly, Anna Rufaida, my friend in Tadulako University who works as an operator staff in Language and Art Education Department, invited me to join in her travel plan to Boneoge, Donggala. After knowing whoev

Bits and Pieces of My Life: Hustle Culture and Multitasking

Have you ever heard about hustle culture and multitasking? Hustle culture is a person mentality who thinks work as everything above all. For them, work all day long every day is a must, for the sake of professionality. Until some of them end with burnout - exhaustion of physical or emotional strength or motivation usually as a result of prolonged stress or frustration of work. Sometimes, they are also multitasking - the ability to do multiple tasks at one time. Why do I talk 'bout this? Hmm...I'm going to share about my activity recently ( in the last three months ). After re-reading my daily journal, I realize that the rhythm of my life is in contrary with my principle, which is slow living. What I do recently, shows that I'm in hustle culture and a multitasking woman as well. My weekend is always full of workshops or meetings, from one place to another, even from one hotel to another. That's why, some of my friends or colleagues commented by saying: "

Story of My 18th August

08.18.16 My 26 th Birthday Bulan Agustus kerap kali menjadi bulan yang paling saya nanti-nanti setiap tahunnya. Itu tidak lain dan tidak bukan hanya karena satu hal, yaitu hari kelahiran. Tiap kali, Bangsa dan orang-orang Indonesia usai merayakan Hari Kemerdekaan, saya pun kembali diingatkan dengan hari dimana saya pertama kali melihat dunia yang fana ini. Tiap kali hari itu datang, saya selalu dan senantiasa bersyukur karena masih dianugrahi umur yang panjang. Namun, di sisi lain, saya pun menyadari bahwasanya saya juga semakin dekat dengan kematian. Sebagaimana yang kita ketahui bersama bahwa kehidupan dunia itu fana. Dunia hanyalah tempat persinggahan bagi hamba-Nya, sekaligus tempat untuk menyiapkan bekal untuk kehidupan yang kekal. Dan, kehidupan yang kekal itu adalah akhirat.
